WHAT A CHANGE Nowl

Mr.. Bryan's speech was in nagnif-
cent taste. He said nothing often
sive; he said nothing which can be
construed into a deception; he said
nothing to alarm the most conserva-
tive believer in law and order, but he
did not withhold saying anything
needed to make clear the intense
earnestness with which he views this
campaign, and which those who have
studied events most deeply also feel.
He made some striking points, among
which were that all parties believe in
b1metallism; that workingmen are
disconnected and apprehensive be-
cause of their fear of losing their
places. And better than all the rest
was his review of justice of the in
come tax, and the right of the people
generally to criticise and fairly re-
view decision of any court, no mat
ter how high. His speech, fairly
read, must impress candid men in the
candor and earnestness of the speak
er, and we believe that Bryan stock
advanced five points in New York

AFRAID OF NEW YORK.
New York HeraldD


Information in regard to New York
state is being gathered by the Repub-
lican campaign mana gers. and the re-
suit is awaited with some anxiety by
the national committee, which does not
share the hopeful view of the state
committee in regard to the situation
here.
While no general poll has been at
tempted, an experimental poll of an
election district in the upper part of
the city has been taken and another
district below FOurt eenth street is in
progress. AS it is conceded that the
great majority for Mckinley in 1896
cannot be duplicated this year, the
comparison is made with the Roose-
welt vote of two years ago. The count
of the completed district. which is in
a Republican assembly district. shows
gain of thirty-siX votes over 1896.
Every Republican county leader and
election district captain in the state
knows what is expected of him and
he viii be held accountable for any
disappointments that may occur. The
Republican state managers are work
ing on a basis of a Mckinley plurality
of $4,000. and they have notified or
will notify every district captain how
many votes he must get in his territory
to achieve this result. They feel con-
f1dent that they can carry through this
plan, and they hope that New York
may go Republican by 100000
BY the national managers the state
is still regarded as doubtful, but prob
ably Republican" They class it with
West Virginia as debatable ground. and

without it. if necessary. They believe
that they will surely have 206 electoral

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

Deafness is caused by an infamed
