Circulation Statement
The Bryan whirIv.ind Sweeps West.

The Democratic Presidential candidate
has finished his second tour OF New York
and is carrying the political whirlwind he
raised there out West with him. From
beginning to end Mr.. Bryan's campaign
in the Empire State has been monu-
mental success 1t was SO to the very
last as the Port Jeryis incident happily
illustrates. When thousands CT people IN a
Republican locality stand all night IN the
rain al a railway station to greet the
Tribune of the People. stop his train, and
go wild over him. it is a pretty fair wager
that such conduct means something which
will happen next Tuesday.
All the indications in New York appear
to be favorable to Mr.. Bryan. How far
his majority may be cut down in Greater
New York by Republican colonization and
other frauds it would be hard to guess.
There is strong evidence that plot to
Ign boroughs by the use of imported voters
and repeaters has been thoroughly organ
lied. and that it will tax the preventive
and detective agencies of the local Democ-
racy to prevent serious criminal inroads
upon the legitimate vote from those
sources Still, the leaders of the people
seem confident that the landslide will be
great enough to overcome even a large
fraudulent Republican vote, both in and
outside of the metropolis. This belief is
well supported by the manifestly sincere
enthusiasm of the State populace for
Mr. BRYAN.

that they are panic-stricken and quite

teen electoral votes that they know viii

We cannot believe that the Supreme
Court of the United States, if applied to-
would tolerate such a fla violation of law
as it is alleged the Federal Judge in Louis
vile intends to commit. He has as much
authority to surround the voting places
with Taylor banditti as he would have to
order Federal troops upon the same serv-
ice. Perhaps, when he understands the
consequences of the act he is reported to
contemplate, he will refrain from assum-
ing the responsibility. American liberty

Judge is permitted to make such laws and
to use such intimidation. and brutal force
to carry elections for his party masters

their interests The Kentucky trick has

voters of all close or doubtful States to be
on the alert fer others. Thirty million
dollars will buy great deal OF fraud and
crime il inteIligently and shreWdly ap-

DOVER, DEL, Oct. 31.-The death of
William Eastman Cotter yesterday closed
remarkably checkered career Twice
rich man, occupying a high place in social
and business circles. he became poor and
dependent
Cotter, who was sixty years old. had
been gradually losing health for the past
year, more noticeably during the past
fortnight. He started life as an errand
boy in the store OF Finn & Jackson, VIII
mEgtOn, and his keen perception soon
gave him valuable insight into methods
OF business. When the civil war broke
out he enlisted in the First Delaware Bat
terry, with which he served four years
being mustered out as its orderly. HaY-
ing saved and Inherited some money, he
engaged in the stove business with Zach
ariah Pickles, in Wilmington, the style
of the firm being Pickles & Cotter. To-
gether they built up the largest stove and
hardware business in Delaware. Cotter
| had fortune when he retired, but lost
the most of it in real estate transactions.
Next, trying tn. oil fields near Pitts
burg. which .ere then promising, he
again struck it rich and quit the business
by seillns MS claims Tor $leo,o The Oil
industry at Marcus Hook is said to have
been started by him. Real estate vent
ures were tried again in Lower Delaware,
where he had married Miss Shakespeare.
These and the other transactions, how
ever, had reduced his fortune and he be-
came entangled in the First National
Bank defalcation, for which he was SEN

Through the efforts of the Grand Army of

Bishop spaIding on Trusts.

There are few leaders of public opinion
in Illinois. or in the whole central West,
for that matter. who take rank in-public
respect or influence with the venerable
DR.. j. L. Spaldlng, Catholic Bishop of
Peoria. His popularity is by no means
confined within the bounds of his own
communion. He is known as an American
Of high culture. broad views, and, what Is
best, his heart is with the common people
in the hard struggle of life, just as was
Abraham Linco1n's. Words from the
mouth of q man like Bishop SpaIding are
never without weight in Illinois. and, at
The present juncture they have special
power In a speech delivered in Chicago

large audience, this distinguished citizen
and prelate gave his views On the trust is

said

prives the poor man of the rewards OF his labor,

stated truth in language which few men
in his high position dare 10 use. Fear OF
plutocratic vengeance is keeping many an
honest thinker dumb in these days. but,
here and there we find great souls who
know not fear, and the Bishop of Peoria
is one of them. Speaking Of the tendency
of the time, 10 treat great criminal COM
bfnations with ieniency. he declared that
