HERE is The DAWN'S prediction for
1904. Watch it closely and see if it does
not come true: If David B. Hill lives
until March 4th 1905, he will be preSi-
dent of the United States, provided,
Roosevelt is the republican candidate.
The democratic party will champion
the single gold standard and the trusts
and combines will defeat Roosevelt in
$ curing the nomination if possible,
failing there. they will get in their
deadly work at the polls. for in Hill
they will find all they desire. Bryan
and all Bryan democrats who refuse to
support Hill will be denounced a>
traitors. The slumpS from both parties
in 1904 will exceed that of the conven-
tions of 1896. a new party will spring
into the arena of politics and will poll a
handsome vote. Bryan will probably
be third party candidate.

JOHNSTON FORCES CLAIM
 LIGHT VOTE HURT THEM

At midnight Forney Johnston, son of ex-Governor Johnston, gave out the fol- lowing at Johnston's headquarters at the Morris:
 Indications are that very light vote has been polled-at least 30,00O less than was anticipated by us. Our reports show that intimidation of the grossest kind has been exerted in keeping voters away from the polls, Etowah cast only 300 votes out of total registration of $500. The vote in Jefferson was far lighter than expected and Governor Johnstons majorities have suffered materially on account of this light vote.
 ''The country beats in Jefferson county did not cast over one-fifth of their voting strength and this fact will make the re- suit in Jefferson close. We have about twenty beats to hear from and expect to carry the county.
 "Our reports show that we have carried the following counties: Lowndes. Fillmore, Franklin, Cullman, Mobile, Perry, Win ston. Montgomery. Tallapoosa, Marshall. Hale, Tuscaloosa, Walker. Talladega,

 eve based fermar estimates on a roll of 120,0O0. This has not materialized and Governor Johnston has been the suffer- CT. We are confident that the state is safe, as our heavy vote has not been reached.
 "Our only disappointments in the pres ent returns are the great reduction in the vote cast, the reduced majority in Jefferson, and adverse majorities in Dale and Etowah. Three hundred will cover the majority in each of these counties, and we think it will be impos- sibe for Governor Jelks to overcome the large majorities which Governor Johnston will receive in Tallapoosa, El- more, Henry and other banner counties. Our reports are yet too meagre to esti- mate majorities more particularly"
