Bryan Will Sweep Ohio,

Toledo, o., Jan. 31.-A short trip
through Northern Ohio and 4 talk
with Mayor Jones have convinced me
that Mr.. Bryan will probably carry
the state this year The slightest in
vestigation of the situation is sufli-
cicnt to discover the fact that heavy
majority of the 105,72 citizens who
voted for Mayor Jones for governor
in the recent election will support the
Democratic national ticket. That, of
itself, will be sufficient to defeat
President Mckinley in his own state.
The examination of facts which
satisfied me that Mr.. Mckinley is
likely to lose Ohio this year has been
as carefuland impartial as that which
enabled me only few months ago to
prophesy Mr.. Nash's election.
Senator Hanna is making impress
SlNc cIlOItS " tuC lIuSto loI luutis
large enough to crush the Bryan
movement in the Middle West, but
the experience of both Democrats and
Republicans has proved that the
power of money in elections, although
great is limited. The uncheatable
secrecy Of the Australian ballot sys-
TEN makes it impossible to buy and
deliver votes.
The fact is that Mr.. Hanna and the
trusts which he boldly champions
and befriends have placed Ohio in
the doubtful, il not the Democratic
column of states this year. Ii half
of tho men who voted for Mayor
Jones three months ago support Mr..
BRYAN, Ohio is q secure democratic
state.
Nearly all OF the men who were
prominent in the Jones movement
have privately assured me that they
and their friends will vote against
McKinlcyism and Hannaism this
year.
"My position this year." said Mayor
Jones, ''will be this: l ain opposed
to the old party and boss system, but
in the presidential contest my support
will be given to the party whose plat
form contributes most to the cause of
human liberty and the uplifting of
the plain people to 4 higher level of
life. OF course, the Democrats stand
on higher ground, much higher ground,
than the Republicans. If the Demo
cratic national platform is lifted a
little more TO 4 purcr level of ideal
politics have 10 doubt that Ohio
will be carried h. the Democratic
candidate this year james Crecl-

The Union Force Caked.


just Is we were going to press last
week Rev. and Mrs. l. ii. Greene
came quietly into our sanctam or
den rather. Both pretended to look
innocent and ui.conccrncd like but
we soon discovered plot of some
kind to be unmaslled. Mr. Greene
uncovered = delicious cake of proper.
tors suitable for the sacrifice it was
intended for, the rapacious appetites of
hungry printers. Mrs Greene accom-
panied the gift by the following lines;
To the Editor Of the Union:
This aiagc of old has often been told,
The same w!:!ch i now shnll relate,
That merit deserves tie praise of all
men,
Aud its author walks of' with the cake
The North Park Union has come to
the front;
lis the best without any mistake,
That cvcl was published since it had
its birth.
To the Editor we donate this cake.
Compliments OF
Mrs. Esther Greene.
Reader, Just imagine that scene
We were paialyzcd. We tried 10
humble cur thanks, but Mrs Greene
seeing tears as big as road rauch
biscuit well up in our eyes, laughed
aloud. That saved u.s. We then re
paired to the press room to watch the
boys. When the time came for cary
ing that cake you should have seen
our junior, who is connoiseur ut that
business. No;hlng short of u slice
as big as two sticks of type eighteen
ems wide would satisfy him,
We all pronounced it fine. Such
amenities swcetcn life rs well as the
stomach and smooth the rugged road
the printer has to travel; in many
cases it is rougher than it ought to be.
But if with our constant attention. to
business We can amusc, entertain and
instruct our readers we viii be crate
full. Again kind friends accept our
thanks.

Walden, Larimer County, Colorado,


and silver, abound all through this
section in strong VEINS which make
splendid iluxing and mating mater
ial, 1t is easily probable that with any
kind OF assurance of railway facilities
the section would be rapidly devel
oped. In Fact, the charm of entering
virgin territory of so vast possibilities
will undoubtedly greatly stimulate
prospecting the coming season. The
finds that have already been made
indicate clearly that only development
is necessary TO make northwest Colo
RADIO formidable rival, in mineral
producing way, of the older sections
Of the state.
In addition to this there is prob
ably no finer range and cattle country
anywhere in the west, and while, to n
certain extent, the toot of the loco
motive causes the festive steor to
vanish from the range, yet cattle men
fully appreciate the advantages Of
having an opportunity to ship their
product Mt n minimum expenditure of
time and money; and the nature Of
the country is such that no better
summer range can be found anywhere,
and one that can in nGwise be scr-
ously intcrfered with by railroad
extensions.
1t is the intention of Mr.. Schu-
macher to start in as early this season
as the condition Of the roads will
permit with n prospecting and devcl-
oping outfit to test TO some extent the
value Of what he believes to be Il very
rich find of coal, gi!sonite and kindred
substances of great economic value
He also expects to take hold of some
copper prospects which make Il very
attractive showing and which he
believes with proper development will
become profitable producers.
Mr.. Schumacher's skill and iudg-
ment in mining, combined With the
fact that he is usually backed by
ample capital to consumato his
schemes, renders it very likely that
the section around Hebron and Wal
den in Larimer county will be the
scene OF considerable industrial activ-
ity during the coming season. He
has looked into the mining possibili,
ties to some extent and believes that
very large veins of copper will be
opened with very strong probability
that both gold aud silver in paying
quantities may be found in connection
Herewith.
1t is well-kuown fact that immed
lately west of Fort Collins, in the
same county, very promising copper
field has been opened, and is being
exploited at this time under The direc-
ton OF the Empire Mining Company
and that other companies are operat-
ing still farther west, SC that it is not
improbable that some sort of railway
communication may be established
between Fort Collins and these fur
ther camps across the range, by virtue
Of the very promising discoveries
made in near proximity to Fort Col
lins. If the plans of the present
companies operating near this point
arc not seriously deranged by
untoward circumstances, it is not
unlikely that spur may he built
eight or ten miles i'll length to this
new camp Of Empire which might be,
much on the same plan of the Mid
land road, which was originally
started over Ute pass to haul lumber,
and developed into line of import
and Metals.

GET TIE RIGHT STAMP

At the election two years ago many
ballots were declared Illegal and
thrown out because the voters were
provided by the election Officers with
a ballot-stamp OF the wrong design.
We do not say that this was done pur-
possiy by the election Officers, but,
whether it was or not, tho fact re-
mains that it rendered nugatory tn,
votes of many Republicans and but
few Democrats. To safeguard tho In
terests OF the voters in this election,
the Evening Journal has ascertained
from Clerk of the Peace Foard. who
has the selection. that the design OF
the baliot-stamp this year will be
star. Accept no stamp from any elec
tion officer which is not OF this de-
sign. for, IL you do, your ballot vii
be thrown out. Big interests are al
stake in this election and it becomes
every Republican to see that his ballo
is prepared regularly, deposited In tn,

ONE WEEK OF Trade

Commenting on trade events OF thel
last week Bradstreets says:
Despite some irregularities, grow
ing out OF unreasonable weather con
ditions. heavy price changes in lead
ing staples or increased Conservatism
IN some trades as the election ap-
proaches. the general business situation
as whole is encouraging. and new
elements or manifestations OF strength
appear from time to time. Perhaps the
most notable feature OF the week isl
found In the Industrial situation, which
has been distinctly improved by the APP
parently Official and final action taken
toward ending the anthracite coal
miners strike. In view Of the fact that
most OF The miners have obtained in
creased wages, the effect on business
IN the producing regions can hardly be
otherwise than beneficial while the
trade at large must reap benefits from
the return 10 normal conditions Other
lines Oi trade which showed improve
ments are those OF shoes, leather and
kindred products at the East, which
are reaping the benefit of better dis
tribution in the country at large, and
rather more than an average business
has been done in wool at the East. with
holders more inclined to demand full
prices for their products The contin-
ued weakness of cotton Is an element
or uncertainty IN the goods trade. but
tho hrmness OF these products. In the
face OF the ! iac. decline in price from

This is the commentary OF r. G.. Dun

"The elections mean great deal to
all business interests and, although
confidence in the future is seen on
every hand. It is but natural that men
do not care to take unnecessary
chances, and therefore delay new en-
gagements as far as possible until af-
ter the ballots are counted. But con
