number OF pictures oi Roosevelt
be sent TO that town. which is
the home Of Bryan The letter said
that nearly every house in the street In
which Bryan lives had a Mckinley picture In
its window. and that the people were very anx
ious to put M GOV. Roosevelts portrait but
had not been abb, TO get any Of them. There
has been n great Increase this week In the
number Of letters from the West requesting
documents bearing on tho Philippines and the
policy Of EXPANSION. Tie reports received
from the agents Of the National Committee

has fallen absolutely fiat. His howl about a
standing army has not had any effect at all.
