THE TRIBUNE is not an election forecaster but along with other people we have our guess as to what is going to be the result of next Tuesdays election. Fossil bly, our guess may be tinged with what the writer wants the results to be, but as nearly as it is possible to do so the guess is made from a collection of what the various newspapers and ma gazines are saying about the sit- uation. From all indications the following states are almost abso- lutely sure to cast their electoral votes for MT. Taft: California, Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois. Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachu- setts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Wash ington and Wisconsin. These 21 states have an electoral vote of PA, or two more votes than necessary to elect The follow ing states are reasonably sure to go for MT. Taft: Idaho, Indiana, Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, :, Nevada, Ohio, Utah, West Vir- gina and Wyoming. These states have an electoral vote of S1 and carried along with the first list named above would give Taft 325 votes in the electoral college, or q majority, of 167 votes. This is not all. MT. Taft has a possibili- ty of carrying Colorado, Ken lucky and Missouri with a total electoral vote of 36. In short, nothing but q political landslide could elect MT. Bryan, but that is just what some people are look ing tor. If MT. Bryan is elected, we simply miss our guess, that's all.

A Bold Step.

To overcome tho wcll-grounded and reasonable objections of the moro intel- ligent to the use of secret, medicinal com- pounds, Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. r., some time ago, decided to make bold departure from tho usual course pursued by the makers of put-up medicines for do- nestle use, and SO has published broad. east and openly to the whole world. full and comppte list of all tho ingredients entering lnso-the composition of his widely celebrated Gcdlct6es. Thus he has taken his numcrS1s Yatrons and patients into his full Confidence.

WE have given you our guess on who will be our next president. Hands up, all who think we have guessed right. Ha Ha! Lots of you. Hands down. Mr. c. B. Grim is going to make a short address. In part, MT. Grim says "It is simply like this: think The Tribune has been very lib- eral in it's guess on the election. l believe MT. Taft will carry every ono of those states and even more. Nothing in the world but VICTORY! VICTORY! VICTORY!! Wild hurrah. for Mir. Taf. is heard from A. J. Tabor, Blaine Rhodes, George Buell., and a large number of others. All who think Mir. Bryan will be our next president may stand to your feet. My, what world of you! Mr. |. A. M. Webb failed to stand but wishes to make few remarks. "Ladies and gentlemen: 1 am for MT. Bryan first, last and all the time, but when Mr. Bryan said that the republicans had opened another barrel of gold to buy the election, 1 gave up. I KNOW they'll do it.'' Geo. Phillips now has the floor. "I believe Mr. Bryan WILL BE our next president. Why, I've pinned my faith too securely to that Joplin Globe to give up so easily. We are go- ing to have perfect land slide"
 Attention! Too much noise 1! Silence! That will do. You are excused. Go to the polls next Tuesday and vote your senti- ments.

WHETHER or not you get the man you want elected president, you will have to weed your own row. If prosperous times follow the election it will not be worth anything to you unless you take advantages of the opportunities offered. If hard times follow you will gain nothing by growing at the administration, but your individual success depends large- ly on your own efforts.

THIS is no doubt Mir. Bryan's last appearance before the American people as a presidential candidate. It is said that the third time is the charm and if de- feated surely neither he nor his party would allow his name again to be placed before a national convention. If elected he has repeatedly said that he would un- der no conditions be candidate for re- election.

NATIONAL TICKETS.

Following is copy of the off, ficial ballot as the voters will find it when they go to vote on Mo- vember 3. It would be well for each voter to study it so he will have no trouble in voting it. If democrat wishes to vote for the nine democratic electors he must erase the names of all electors below the democratic candidates. If republican wishes to vote for the nine republican electors, he must mark out all electors above the names of the republi- can electors as we'll as the names of al. electors below the republi- can names. Then it will be easy to vote for congressman by eras' ing the name of one candidate, leaving the name for whom you wish to vote.

STRAUS GIVES REASONS
The New York Merchant and Phi.
Ianthropist Declares Election of
Bryan Means Business

Prosperity.
Nathan Straus, the great New York
merchant and philanthropist, in an
nouncing his reasons for supporting
Mr.. Bryan, said:
81 feel sure that he will be elected,
and say, as a business man, one who
is as much interested perhaps as any,
In the general prosperity of the coun-
try, as one who is bound to feel per-
sonalIy any lack of prosperity among
the masses, that | believe his election
will be benefit to all the country,
and to all of the people. Those that
talk otherwise, those that predict panic
and disaster, as the result of the cleo
ton Of an honest man, chosen by an
honest majority of the people, are mar
row minded and short-sighted, or pre-
tend to believe that which they know
Is not true, or they are seeking to OBJ
scure the real and vital issues Of the
campaign. Mr.. Bryan will make a
safe, reliable, conscientious president,
a president for all Of the people, the
rich and the poor, the big man and
the little. He will represent the
American people, not any class, and
for that reason | shall work for him
until election and vote for him on
election day."
