 Win With It in 1904.

Chicago Special to Pittsburg Post
 Former Vice-President Adlai Stevenson came to Chicago yesterday from his home in Bloomington. H. While here, he dis cussed the political situation and said:
 "A happy new year Is just beginning for the Democratic party. I believe the next twelve months will see the party on it's feet again and able to present an unbroken front tL the foe. The next President will be Democrat.
