DICK EXPECTS 100000 PLURALITY
Republican State Chairman Of Ohio
Usually Accurate.


Special Dispatch to- The Evening Star.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November 2.-The es-
innate of the election result given out by
Chairman Dick of the republican state COM
mittee last night causes much comment for
two reasons: First, Chairman Dick has
never yet missed 1t. for on his prediction
estimates and the plurality he predicts for
the head Of the republican ticket, 100000,
has been given to the republicans. but
twice in the history of the state, and both
times 1t was at crisis.
The first time was when John Brough
beat Clement L. Vallandingham for COVER
nor in 1858. and second, when 8. M. Taylor
defeated Milton I. Turner for secretary OF
state in 1893. The first victory was under
war excitement and the second under the
excitement OF the panic.
The prediction of sixty republican Joint
ballot majority In the next legislature
seems almost impossible. Chairman Dick
is counting on electing the entire delega-
ton in Cuyahoga county Many republt-
cans who have expected Herrick to carry
that county have predicted that Johnson's
candidates for the legislature would win
there.

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

President Roosevelt Designates Thurs
day, November 26.
The President has issued his annual
Thanksgiving proclamation in the following
terms:
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA.
A PROCLAMATION.
The season is at hand when, according to
the custom of our people, it falls upon the
President to appoint day Of praise and
Thanksgiving to God.
During the last year the Lord has dealt
bountifully with u.s. giving us peace at
home and abroad and the chance for our
citizens to work for their welfare unhinder-
ed by war, famine or plague. 1t behoove3
US not only to rejoice greatly because of
what has been given u.s. but to accept 1t
with solemn sense of responsibility, real
izing that under heaven 1t rests with us
ourselves to show that we are worthy to
use Alright what has thus been entrusted to
our care. In no other place and at no
other time has the experiment Of govern
ment of the people, by the people, for the
people, been tried on so vast a scale as
here in our own country in the opening
years of the twentieth century. Failure
would not only be dreadful thing for us.
but dreadful thing for all mankind be-
cause it would mean loss of hope for all
who believe in the power and the righteous
ness of liberty. Therefore, In thanking
God for the mercies extended to US in the
past, we beseech Him that He may not
withhold them in the future, and that our
hearts may be reused to war steadfastly
for good and against all the forces Of evil.
public and private. We pray for strength
and light, SO that in the coming years We
may with cleanliness, fearlessness and VS.
dcm do our allotted work on the earth in
such manner as to show that we are not
altogether unworthy Of the blessings we
have received.
Now, therefore, I. Theodore Roosevelt,
President of the United States. do hereby
designate as day Of general Thanksgiving
Thursday, the Goth of the coming Novem-
ber. and do recommend that throughout the
land the people cease from their wonted
occupations, and In their several homes
and places of worship render thanks unto
Almighty God for His manifold mercies.
In witness whereof have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal Of the United
States to be affixed.
Done at the city Of Washington this
81st day Of October, in the year of our
Lord one thousand nine hundred and three.
and of the Independence of the United
States the one hundred and twenty-eighth.

IN BEHALF OF CHINA.
Minister LANG Pays Visit to the
Department Of State.

Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, the Chinese
minister here. acting under instructions
from his government at Peking. has been
particularly active recently in the effort to
interest the United States government in
China's behalf in her Manchurian troubles.
He was at the State Department today In
pursuit Of that object, the direct purpose
being to see If any way can be found by
which the United States government may
be able to serve China in this emergency.
It appears, however, that SO far Secretary
Hay has not been enabled to hit upon any
plan of action that would promise to serve
China in that manner at this time.
There is no question that the events re-
ported as having happened at Moukden
regarding the reoccupation Of that town
are not looked upon with friendly eyes by
the officials here, but 1t begins to appear
certain that SO long as the United States
government secures and retains trade in
Manchuria 1t will not be drawn into the
political complications of the present situa-
ton,

MIR. MADDEN'S DENIAL.
He Has Never Sold Any Stamps to Col

An investigation has been quietly going

Assistant Postmaster General Madden.
growing out of charges that were published
nearly two years ago, but which were only
formally brought TO the attention of the
Postmaster General on Friday last. The
charges appeared in Mekeeps Stamp Col
lector, on April %, 1902, and were to the
effect that Mr.. Madden had had the four
cent Pan-American exposition stamp pur-
posely printed with the picture inverted, and
that he had ordered the word specimen"
printed across the face Of this issue. The
periodical making the charges said that a
single one of these stamps sold for $40,
and the plain inference Is that they were
so printed, at the direction of Mr.. Madden,
to sell to collectors at a premium. In
addition to this charges were also printed
lately to the effect that Mr.. Madden had
thus robbed the government of several
thousands of dollars. and that he was in
great danger of being indicted in addition
to having his conduct investigated.
He was in his office today at his usual
work and to a reporter for The Evening
