Only Forty-Eight Votes.

Four years ago Mr.. McKinley's
majority in the Electoral College
was o5. If Mr.. Bryan can keep the
ITO votes cast for him then, only 48
more are necessary TO secure his
election.
Delaware has 8, Maryland 8, West
Virginia E, Kentucky IA total of
20 votes from old Democratic states
which PRIOR to 1896 had never in
twenty years gone Republican and
which should return to the Demo
cratic column this year.
This would leave only 70 more
votes necessary.
Indiana, which has IS, was com
paratively close state in 1896. L,
has regularly seesawed from Demo
cratic to Republican and back fol
twenty-eight years, and is due to re-

year; so that the Democrats are
hopeful of carrying IT for Mr.. Bryan
as they did for Tilden and twice fol-
Cleveland.
This would leave only 4 votes
necessary.
A Democratic plurality in any one
of the five Middle States-Ohio,
Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota OF
Wisconsin-would more than supply
this deficiency. A change of less
than a., 900 votes would have carried
Ohio for Tilden in 1876. In 1892
the state was so close that Cleveland
actually received one of its electora
votes, and in that year Wisconsin
and Illinois both went for Cleveland
In Michigan the Republicans are
reported to have special points O.
weakness, notably the detection o,
Gov. Pingree, the presence of 90.
900 Hollanders in the State and the
corruption and offensive rule of the
corporations.
The Fusionists in Minnesota elect
ed Gov. Lind in 1898 by plurality
of 20, 900 over his Republican op
ponent.
Any one of these states would
supply not only the four votes nee
essary on this basis, but would alsc
give Mr.. Bryan surplus varying
from five to twenty to offset any los
he might sustain in the states hi

While F. M. Davis was Count,

While F. M. Davis was County
Attorney of this county he was made
attorney for the Stockgrowers' Bank
and the court allowed him something
over S4oo for his services. He also
collected a claim for Meade County
against the same bank and was paid
s per cent fees for this work. Mr..
Davis was attorney for the bank and
attorney for Meade County at the
same time. We again refer you to
the records in the Dist. Clerks office.
Don't take this for authority, but go
to the above named office and you
will find what we say is correct.
Quite an attorney is Frank,

Republicans are now privately ad-
hitting that Bryan and Stevenson

Chicago is to concede the state.
AS rule, as the cities go, SO goes
the the state. This was true in the

BRIIlANlS EXPERIENcE

British army nurses just home from
the South African battlefelds make
statements which confirm in part the
criticism Of the royal army medical
service during the Boer war; For in
stance. Sister Isabel Wilson, a volun-
teer nurse, says there is unquestionably
foundation for the charge that the SER
vice was, and still Is. miserably def
cient The chief cause OF complaint
has been the small number of nurses
She says that following the battle Of
Spion Kop five doctors and five nurses
were compelled to care for 140 wounded
men in addition to being beset by a
red-tape system that was simply dis
tracing. This understanding in her
opinion was due to lack OF foresight.
On the ground that the regular supply
Of nurses was more than ample, hun
dreds of volunteers for nursing service
We're rejected early in the war. No al
lowance was made for the ravages of
enteric fever and other diseases to
which many Of the nurses succumbed.
Those volunteers who We're accepted
complain that they received but $3.50 a
day, out of which they were Obliged to
provide mess, laundry and clothing.
With the war on the veldt about
over, these criticisms cannot be of
benefit to the service at this particular
time, but as nations, like per-
sons, profit by experience, Great
Britain doubtless has learned a
lesson which will inspire her
to provide in future wars whatever de-
iciencies have been made manifest by
the Boer war.

to the Philadelphia Record for the "ex-
cellent cut Of Mr.. Willard Salisbury" /"
and gave credit to the Philadelphia In
quirer for the special. And after it
had done all this the Delaware delega-
tion simply ignored Mr. Salisbury en-
tirely and the Dover Delawarean

forms. AS Senator Kenney and For
mer Representative Handy are desirous
of being United States senators, and

are developing its educational facilities

development. We hope to see the time

OF 497, or one passenger was killed for
every 2,1s9.02S carried. and one injured
for every 1919 carried. OF railway
employees 2,2l0 were killed and S4,92S
were injured during the year.
With the mileage increased, a big
advance in earnings, an increase Of 54,-
s66 in the number OF employees, freight
tonnage much greater and finances i'm
proved, we believe that rail-
road men will vote to con-
tinue such gratifying conditions and
not assist in the election OF Bryan,
whose very presence in the political
field has a disturbing and depressing
effect on business.
