the Democrats are now triumphantly carrying,
Mr.. Bryan a tremendous majority in the elec.
toral college.
Four years ago the Democrats, about a wcei,
before the election, carried the country for Bryan
In the same way. The estimates quoted below
were sent out by the Democratic national com.
mittec on Oct. "a, 1896. The actual results arc
purposes OF comparison:
''lllinois will give Bryan at least $4,000 plural.
ity."-McKinlcys plurality In Illinois was over
140,0 900.
bryan will carry Michigan by not less thar
$4,000. "--McKinley's plurality In Michigan wal
over $1,000.
Minnesota will give Bryan $4,000. o."-Minne
sofa gave Mckinley over $4,000
''In New York Bryan will have 50,0o0.-Mc
Kinlcy carried New York by over 100000
"Therc will be sweeping Democratic victory
In Indiana. mckinley carried Indiana by over
1900.
"Bryan will carry Iowa by a large majority."-
Mckinley carried California by 1922 plurality.
North Dakota will be for Bryan by 3,000"-
Mckinley carried North Dakota by over 5000
bryan will be 10000 votes ahead In Ken
lucky. mckinley carried Kentucky by a small
plurality.
Democrats are hopeful In Connecticut, though
Republicans are full Of bluff and blustcr. A de
cided surprise awaits the Republicans in thi,
state. mckinley was $4,000 votes ahead il
Connecticut.
Democratic advance estimates OF election re
suits are exactly as accurate and valuable now
a. they were four years ago.

"HAT A SPEEDY settlement
of the strike may be effect
cd has been, from the begin
ming, the earnest hope of
every person resident in the territory
of conflict-a hope founded, it is true,
largely on self-interest, yet stimulated
by the knowledge that an early settle
ment is needed most of all by the mon
now idle and by their families.
The ten per cent. offer made by the
companies gave impetus to this hope
but the bulletin of results of yestcr-
days deliberations by the miners con-
vention dispels it. In a situation such
as is presented in the anthracite coal
fields today it is vain to expect one side
to do all the yielding. Mutual con-
cession has been the rule of every sue
cessful settlement and it must prevail
in this instance if the long recourse of
utter exhaustion is to be averied, with
the awful consequences it implies.
The Industrious miner, seeing wint: ~
coming on and no provision made. will
consult his own best interest by favor
ing an early resumption of the mines.
Increase of his wages, now offered, is
more important than a struggle over
non-essentials. sThe community re-
joices that this offer of an increase has
been made to him but it is a question
how far public opinion will sustain him
in holding out for improbable conces-
sions at cost infinitely in excess Of
their utmost possible value.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-10-13
to enter upon cause that is certain to
produce melancholy results.

"Neither in the Philippines nor else
where Will the cause of human liberty
look for It's champion to party whose
only hope of obtaining power lies In
the suppression of human rights and In
an organized conspiracy to nullify the
guarantees with which the constitu-
tion endeavors to surround the citizen.
From thousands Of polling places In
this election, in which the Democratic
party Ia 80 much concerned about the
consent Of the governed the negro
citizen will be excluded by laws so
contrived as to keep out the negro Re-
publican while admitting the white
Demoerat, though both present them
selves with similar qualifications, ex-
cept as to color. The party which viii
not allow the constitution to follow
the flag through the Carolinas, through
Mississippi and Texas, has no occasion
to distress itself about the constitu-
tion's journey 1000 miles across the
ocean."-New York Republican Plat
form.
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-10-13

"~IE COMING session of the
Pennsylvania legislature
will have degree of inter-
est and Importance for the
people of Scranton and Lackawanna
county far beyond the ordinary. AL
ready we are assured that the city of
Scranton will pass into a new class
necessitatng practically a reconstruct

requiring virtually a complete over
