been made, it is generally believed that
stump during the entire month of
October will prove successful. With the
announcement that Mr.. Taft will make
a speaking trip through the middle
West and the west, the democratic
leaders believe that the fight should
be forced all along the line until cleo
ton day and that to that end Mr..
Bryan should continue his speaking
trips until the campaign ends. Ma
tional committeeman from the far
west are trying to prevail upon Chair
man Mack to send the candidate to the
Pacific coast states, but whether Mr..
Bryan will make the long westward
swing will depend in great measure on
plans made for Mr.. Taft's stumping
tour. Chairman Mack and other men,
bers of the committee are not a little
concerned over the question whether
Mr. Bryan's strength would enable him
to duplicate the arduous campaign of
1896, though Mr.. Bryan has stated that
he is willing to do whatever the COM
mittee feels is required to make an
effective fight. National Chairman
Mack said today that the conference
today would be confined principally to
an interchange of views of the vari-
Gus committees on the plans drawn
for the campaign and that Mr.. Bryan
would offer his advice and counsel be-
fore their adoption. The committees
will try to still further increase pub
lie interest in formation of clubs as
the most potent factor in bringing
about the election of Mr.. Bryan. Upon
the clubs and the democratic press, the
national committee is depending for
campaign funds and the responses to
the call for money has. according to
Colonel Wetmore, head Of the finance
bureau, been very gratifying.
Mr.. Bryan spent the day in con-
ferences with the different national
committeeman and tonight he will ad-
dress a general conference of the COM
mtteemen of Chicago.
