politicians. The statement is made that Hill has no
idea OF nominating Herrick and Cunneen 1t is de-

THE VERMONT CAMPAIGN.
Republican Chairman Erpects
$4,000 Majority.

Burlington. VT, Sept 3.-After a brief cam
paign marked by numerous rallies the part
of the Republicans and comparatively few ar
ranged by the Democrats, the active work of
arousng the interest. of the voters in the State
election next Tuesday practically closed to-
night. few supplementary meetings will be
held on Monday.
That the Republicans will elect Charles ].
Bell, of Walden. the party candidate for Gov
ernor the balance of the State ticket. the two
candidates for Congress and an overwhelming
majority of the members Of the legislature is
conceded by the Democrats. AS to the size Of
Mr.. Bells majority the party leaders differ.
Chairman Chapman of the Republican State
Committee feels reasonably sure of $4,000 ma
jority, while Chairman Bullard of the Demo-
cratic State Executive Committee looks for
something below 10000 majority for the Repub-
Lcan ticket. Mr.. Chapman said to-day:
So far as we can learn from advices from all
parts of the State, there Will be a very large
vote cast Tuesday. The great mass of voters
is enthusiastic for Roosevelt AID FAIRBANKS
With a good day we feel REASONABLY sure of %
900 majority, and should look for more, ex-
cept for local conditions where fusion exists
President ROosevelt's tremendous popularity
has been the one feature of all the rallies.
Mr. Bullard. of the Democratic State Execu-
tive Committee said
If the Republican majority is below $1,000 or
2SOOO it will be a victory for the Democrats.
Reports from different parts of the State indi-
cate that the Republican majority Will be below
10000 We feel sure that If the Republican
majority is below 25,OOO the national election
will be Democratic.
The election returns this year will be com
pared with those of the State election OF 1900,
as the contest two years ago was practically be-
tween two Republican candidates with the liquor
question issue. the Democratic candidate
receiving a very small vote.

Making Rear Platform Speeches on
the Way to Chicago.

Kansas City Sept. 3.-Senator Fairbanks de-
parted early to-day for Chicago, en- route to
Bath, Me, where he will speak on Monday. The
programme of the day included rear platform
speeches at Lexington Junction, Carrolton,
Marcelline La Plata, and Med Mo. The first
stop was at lexington Junction. There the
Senator made no speech but he personally
greeted all who were assembled. At Carrouton
there was longer stay and a larger crowd
and he made brief speech saying among other
things:
perity in the factory on the farm and upon al
the great lines OF commerce Al OF TINS Is hlSn
policies and Republican administration. Do we
hold fast to the policies Under which we have ac-
c9mPshed so much and we should supPoftI the the
common interest. We have to-day in the White
Of he Continued eoaence of Nau and Of the
entire United States, Theodore Roosevelt
At MarcelIre there was another crowd, and
also short speech. Senator Fairbanks re
called a trip he had made over the Santa Fe In
1896 and said there We're by no means as many
signs of prosperity along the line then as now.
There were then, he said. many empties and
many dead engines. whereas to-day the equip
ment of the road is taxed to it's utmost, There
are more engineers at the throttle to-day than
there were In 1896
why, my good friends? l will tell you why.
Because during the last seven years have
been operating under Republican policies, and
there have been two great patriotic American
statesmen at the throttle in Washington. One
OF them, William Mckinley, We followed Loyalty
and lovingly in 1896 and again in 1900. and in
the language of Edwin NJ. Stanton he now be-
longs to the ages We have in the White House
his constitutional successor, who is carrying
into effect the same policies and the same prin-
ciples for which Mckinley stood"
While the Senator speaking a large
American flag fell against him. He pushed it
aside, saying:
We will not pull it down. Republicans never
pull down the flag"
The crowd at La Plata was large and the
Senator was enthusiastically greeted.

typers Union of New-YOrk. and well known
labor man of Brooklyn, has consented to accept

sistent Bryan support the Democratic

night:
The conditions most favorable this year for
a breaking down of the strict party lines. The
Peoples party has fine candidate for President in
Thomas e. Watson. who is well known as a ster-
writer.
There are in my opinion two kinds of Demo-
Gratis those who follow anything labelled Democ-
racy and those who Democrats because of
hcult to support Judge Parker platform from
which he differs very little from the Republican
platform, Added 10 that is the fact that, while
Parker himself is a man whose Views are un-
known, he Is supported by that political tTium-
virate Belmont. McCarren and Hill. all of whose

Belmont IS the agent of Rothschid. McCar-

FAY CAUCUS FOR CIRCUIT.
Meeting of Kings County Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee Called

There is to be a meeting Of the Kings County
Democratic Executive Committee In the Thomas
Jefferson Building next Tuesday night. The call
was issued by Senator McCarren on Friday before
going out OF town over Labor Day. Several of the
committeeman said last night that they did not
know the object OF the meeting. It is surmised
however. that il is largely for the purpose of dis
cussing the course TO be pursued by the organiza-
ton in furthering the chances OF Controller Grout
for the Governorship nomination. 1t a question
as to whether it will be considered expedent 10
have the convention instruct the delegates to the
State convention at the time they are elected next
Friday night This viii probably be done but a
caucus Of the delegates may be held at which
resolution declaring FOR Grout and the unit rule
may be passed.
Deputy Fire Commissioner Doyle says that the
delegates from the five antMcCarren districts will
noL take part In any such caucus. AS some of these
districts are strongly Democratic they have large
fefese litions in the county committee five
ali-McCarren leaders figure that they control
ABOUT one-thlTd Of the committee. For this reason
lneE plan making some sort Of a demand on Senator
McCarren for representation the various sub
committees.
