felt about the campaign. The lacoriic. con-
1dent answer was characteristic Of the
man. 1T meant a good deal. too. for Mr..
Barnard makes no rash statements. He
has been confident for some time of the
election of the rest of the Fusion ticket.
Representative Bennett, manager for Mr..
Barnard, wore the broadcast smile yester-
day he has had since he started the
arduous campaign. 1--WE are getting In
seven or eight polls every day." he said,
land they all tell the same story, that the
drift is away from Gaynor and to Barnard.
Just a few minutes ago I got several
polls from Abraham Gruber, OF the 18th
District. He says that the Independents.
as well as the Republicans, are standing by
Barnard to a man"
We'll. I have found that Colonel Cru

past" said Mr. Barnard.

APPEAL TO TAXPAYERS
DIR. George w. Bush. representing the
Taxpayers Conference. gave to Mr.. Ban
nard a copy of an address that is being
issued to taxpayers throughout the city. 1t
says:
The organized taxpayers of the city have
been using every influence in their power
in the last few months to secure the nom

Raymond v. Ingersol, chairman of the
campaign committee Of the Committee of
One Hundred, said yesterday:
IF every one who prefers Mr.. Barnard
above the other two candidates will vote
for him he will be elected. We have been
gratifed with the progress which Mr. Ban
nard has been making during the last
week. The citizens have grown to know
him better every day, and il seems reason
able to think that every intelligent voter
will understand before November 2 what a
straightforward, Democratic and thorough
ly capable man he is.
There can be no doubt that he will hold
the great Republican vote, and will get
thousands of votes from Democrats who
feel that the affairs of the city and the
selection of its department heads can be
better intrusted TO him than to either Mr..
Gaynor or Mr.. Hearst

Mr.. Barnard. My best judgment is that,
while Judge Gaynor has been losing every
day since his nomination, the election still
lies between him and Mr.. Barnard"
SUBWAYS NEED BUSINESS MEN.
The Barnard Campaign Club put out an
other OF its snappy bulletins yesterday.
It says:

doctor or a blacksmith? Who is the best

editor or business man?
