THE DEMOCRATS HOPEFUL
They Expect Heavy Gains in APP
preaching Municipal Elections.
REVIEW OF THE SITUATION
In Chicago Carter Harrison Will
Give His Opponents a Hot Race.
TaffeI Nominated in Cincinnati
and Farley in Cleveland-The
Situation in Detroit.

The approaching elections In half
dozen of the larger cities of the country
for State officers are expected by promi-
nent Democratic leaders in Washin gton, to
show a strong reaction in favor of the
Democratic party.
The nomination which in each OF the
large cities have been made by the Demo
cratic party are regarded as uncommonly
formidable. In the list Of cities which
will select their chief executives the Ilrst
week in April, are Chicago. st. Louis,
Cincinnati Detroit, and Cleveland, all
among the first municipalities OF the
country.
The contest in Chicago is a familiar one
There are four candidates, but only Two,
Judge Sears, the Republican candidate, and
Carter Harrison, the son of his father,
the Democratic nominee, are seriously in
the race. The eX-postniaster, Washington
Hesing, is running kind Of side show
of his own as q good government can
didate. and John Harlan, son of the aSSo-
ciate Justice of the Supreme Court, is
candidate OF some local organization. The
general impression, even among prominent
Illinois Republicans, is that Harrison VIII
greatly reduce the Republican majority,
and there are some who do not hesitate
to say that they are fearful OF his eiec-
ton. He is adopting style of campaign
somewhat similar to that of his ce!e-
brated father, and appears to be attract
| ing a large support.
In Cincinnati the Democrats have nomi'
mated Col. Gustav Taffel, well-known
| silver Democrat and eX-Union officer,
| who made an excellent race for mayor
| a couple Of years ago. MIR. Taffel is also
| the nominee of citizens convention,
| composed mostly of leading business men
| of the Republican party. The silver ques'

The leading members Of the Populiso

the report that the ruiddIe-Of-the-roaders,
so-caIIed, are to undertake to have q

ference last night was strongly against

The Times last evening: The Republican
leaders who were so active in supporting
the middle-of-the-rOad national ticket last
fail are. think. back Of the present effort
to secure a national convention or con-
ference There is no occasion for such
convention at this time. The only pos
sible purpose of it is to endeayor 20 divide
| the silver forces and disor ganize the
| Populist party. l do not believe the
middle -of-the-road POpulists can possibly
/ secure the calling OF a convention, or
| control it if called" "
| Representative J Jerry Simpson, of Kansas,
| said after the CaucIS.
| For myself, I have always had the Opin-
| ion of the lady delgate from Colorado who
| addressed our national convention at St
| Louis last summer. She said, When the
| issue is between Mckinley and Bryan, there

not changed any since the last campaign
/ tits still fight between the gold standard

Senator Stewart Of Nevada said that
one Of the principal subjects of discussion
| at the conference was the dissemination ct
literature throughout the country, and he
believed that the Populist organization
would soon be in position TO supply all It's
! newspapers Throughout the country with
literature at first hand, which would be
very helpful in continuing the present or
Ganization and generally promote the free
silver cause.
If the success of the middle-Of-the-road
