me Democratic committee statement
follows.
we believe that after conservative
estimate OF the political situation we
VIII have majority OF 81 in the next
House. We arrive AT this conclusion
by giving each party the districts which
they are reasonably certain 10 carry and
dividing the districts equally between
them. While our gains win be most
pronounced in the east, we have every
reason to believe We VIII make gains

exception Of four. and we do not ex-
pect 10 lose more than two districts
that are now represented by Demo-
Gratis.
In the beginning OF the campaign
the prospects for a Democratic victory
looked so bright that we feared il
would only be temporary. We con
graduate ourselves that the revolt
against the Payne-Aldrich bin and the
Republican mismana cement of the
government has grown each day since
the campaign begun until now IL has
become evident that an overwhelming
victory for Democracy is assured"
Chairman Mckinley, in his statement,

From the best reports Obtainable
from candidates on the Republican
ticket and others interested in Repub-
lican politics i am confident the Re-
publican party viii control the Sixty

A
SLAVE DRIVER
John Mitchell Opposes the
Election of Dix as Governor
Because He Works His Men
IS Hours for a Pittance.

n JEA YORK, Nov. John Mitchell.
IN the Labor leader, issued through
Republican state headquarters
tonight an open letter attacking the
record OF John 4. Dix, the Democratic
candidate for governor. The letter
said Ina parts
when the charge was first made
nat Mr. Dix required the employees in
his paper mills 90 work thirteen hours
each night, 1 assumed that the charge
mad no basis in fact and that it
would he answered by a specific denial.
However up 10 this hour no denial
has been made and no explanation has
been offered by Mr.. Dix. on the con-
trary, investigation has demonstrated
that the employees OF the paper mills
controlled by Mr.. Dix are required 10
and do work thirteen hours of each
"a hours. 1t has been charged and not
denied that the WOrkmen in his mills
receive IN return for these excessively
long hours only SIS per night or 13l
cents per hour
IF the state Of New York and all its
municipalities recognize eight hours
as days work. what justificat ton can
there be for eXcusing or defending a
lS-hOur day in tile paper mills con-
trolled by MIR. Dix? The statute OF the
state OF New York establishing the
eignt-hour day was enacted at the So
1cltatiOn OF the wa ge-earners. Does
IL seem reasonable 10 suppose that
Mr. Dix, who requires his own men TO
work Is hours each night would SYM
pathize with a law which establishes
for state and municipal employees an
eight-hour work day?
In my opinion the wage-earners
should distinguish between the candi-
dates Tor office. and that. quite apart
from political conditions. they should
oppose the election of any candidate
of any party who is not in sympathy
with their efforts 10 secure and main
tain fair wages.

Puenta Arenas, Chile. Feb. 13.-Fur- ther details of the voyage of the Pourquoipas. now returning with Dr. CharcOts antarctic expedition have been received. The Pourquopias, on reaching the region of ice on the trir south. was stranded on the coast of Grahamland, but was refloated in three days.
 She met a long series of acci- dents, was in collision with a num- Der of icebergs and lost her rudder. The crew constructed a jury rudder There was much suffering; scurvy and heart disease were the chief ailments. Many journeys were made over the ice. but it was impossible to use automobiles because of the bad condition of the ice fields.

 A five-mile race between the big biplane and the E.. NJ. F. Studebaker machine driven as the day before by B. w.

 A gentleman who overheard his complaint observed kindly that the world had been waiting 5000 years for the construction of a flying machine and he thought a reasonable person ought to be patient enough to wait three minutes longer to see it start There is no use in hurrying through life too fast.
 The, race was a fine one, very like those that have preceded it during the oIA Ix- watched these races can appreciate the fairness of the aviators and the perfect control over their machines. It has been hinted that they might cut the corners as there is no fence to hold them in the course, but the close observer can see that they do nothing of the kind and when they come down the grand stand side of the track at least they fly along the outside fence rather than along the pole, passing di rectly over the judges stand. It is noticed also that the turning of the corners is made an occasion for speed as well as accuracy. On the back stretch for instance the flyer usually climbs as high as possible, losing a little speed in doing so. Then he ele- yates the outer plane and circling to the left swoops down like d bird rounding both corners at the end of the track at the fastest possible speed and with the machine riding at an an- gle of about 45 degrees.
