warm appreciation Of your countrymen

Due to Patriotism.
1.-THE people in their majesty. ignoring
OF Reputation and dishonor. in whatever
spacious guise they may be presented.
They have with the same mighty power
affirmed their devotion to law ana oroer
and their undertaking respect for justice

the country and have thereby given new
vigor and strength to our free institutions
They have. indeed. again consecrated

Victory for the Whole People.
1.-The victory is not to party or section.
but OF and for the American people. Not
the least of tho triumphs Of the election is
the obliteration of sectional lines in the
republic. We have demonstrated to the
world that we arc a reunited people In
purpose as well rs in name. We have
manifested In the great cause the spirit of
fraternity and brotherhood that should al
ways characterize our common and equal
citizenship and have proven conclusively
that in a country of equal privileges and
equal opportunities the insidious" doctrine
Of hate or Of class Or sectional distinc-
tons cannot prevail. Let US as Americans
straightway devote ourselves to the up
building Of America; to the peace. honor
and glory Of our common country. Party
dissensions should no longer divide or rack
the public mind. nor the zeal or temper Of
either side deter any citizen from patriotic
devotion to the good of ALL

vices were received at headquarters from
West Virginia conceding the electoral vote
Of that state to Mckinley. but 1t was de-
Of the fact until Thursday. In the mean
time Gov. Stone arrived in Chicago from
Missouri in response to Senator Jones tele-
gram. The national committee chairman.
the governor and Campaign Chairman Cam
pau were in conference Thursday evening
in the senator's room, and at its conclusion
the following statement was given to the
press:
1.-THE result Of the presidential election
IS apparently no longer In doubt. 1t has
been one Of the closest contests that the
people have been called on to determine
in recent years. We have claimed the cleo.
ton on our advices from states that were
admittedly in doubt. in which we knew
there had been many frauds and from
which there were evidences of tamperin s
with the returns. 1t seems now to be ap-
parent that, while Mr.. Bryan, after makins
the most brilliant campaign in the his
tory Of our country. has carried most OF
the states claimed to be doubtful. but
has not carried enough to assure his sue
cess in the electoral college. Bryan electors
have been chosen in all the states south
OF the Potomac and Ohio, except West
Virginia, and all those west Of the Mis-
has 1870 electoral votes. and this number
may be increased by final returns from
states yet in question.
Cause of the Defeat.
"Thus this remarkable campaign closes
with the election OF William Mckinley.
The result was brought about by every kind
OF coercion and Intimidation on the part
OF the money power, including threats of
lockouts and disn1issals and impending
starvation: by the employment Of by far
the largest campaign fund ever used in this
country and by the subornat;on of large
portion Of the American press. The prest-
dent-elect and his party are under pledge
to the American people to continue the
gold standard and by its operation to re-
store prosperity to this country. AS chief
executive Mr.. Mckinley will have the cor
dial support of the millions OF patriotic
Americans who have cast their votes for
William Jennings Bryan. They bow to the
majesty of the Office, and abide by the re-
suit with none of tho mutterings tina
would have come from the money power
had 1t been unsuccessful. They are conf
dent the gold standard cannot give the
promised prosperity. but will gladly well
come 1t If 1t comes. They will continue the
great struggle for the uplifting of human
Ity and to the maintenance of the dignity
of our country in the establishment OF an
American monetary system. And the dem
ocratic party, aided by its present allies.
will still uplift the bimetallic standard
and bear it on to victory.

Bryan and left 16 in doubt. The doubt
full votes are those of kentucky and
Wyoming. The result in these two
states is so close as to require on official
count to decide it. The popular vote in
the several states give Mckinley plu-
rality of O33.216. The present indica-
tons are that the next congress will be
