MARYLAND
FOR WILSON
Reports From the Counties And
City Show That State viii
Give Wilson 100000

Final reports Of conditions in all the
counties of the States and wards OF
Baltimore received by the Democrats
who are managing the campaign indicate
that Governor Wilson will carry Mary
land by 10000 plurality.
This comparatively large plurality
will be unprecedented. The managers
declare that it will be due to the fact
that Governor Wilson will receive the
normal Democratic vote plus nearly all
of the Independents. while the normal
Republican vote will be split between
Roosevelt and Taft. Former Governor
Frank Brown received 10000 majority
when the Republicans We're united.
Despite the confident assertions which
have been made by managers of the
Bull Moose and Republican candidates
in MARYLAND that they expected large
reflections from the Democratic vote.
the developments Of the last few days
have. in the judgment Of unbiased
critics. clearly outlined the situation.

Leaders Predict Wilson
Victory.

Democratic leaders are a unit in pre-.
dieting that Governor Wilson's plurality
in Maryland would break all records for
the State.
United States Senator John Walter
Smith predicts majority for Governor
Wilson over both Taft and Roosevelt.
and, at that. one Of the largest ever
given a candidate in Maryland.
He said that under Wilson's leader
ship Democracy is destined to enter
upon the enjoyment Of a period Of
power that will rival that Of its early
glory.
"0ur party in Maryland is united as
il has never been in many years. There
is not sulker in the counties or city.
Whatever family difference we may
have had in past years are submerged
in the enthusiasm Of victory and Wilson.
Every worker in our party is out
among the people and there will be no
let-up until the polls close. Putting
that sort Of party activity behind the
overwhelming sentiment for Wilson and
for the principles of the.Democratic par
~ can lead TO but one result an unpre-
cedented majority.
ut is not alone the prospect Of party
victory that makes me rejoice: it is the
vista Of power under Wilson'S leadership
that | see opening up. verify believe
the Democracy is to enter upon another
period Of long continued power.
Senator Blair Lee is equally assured
Of staggering majority over all.
Joshua w. Miles, chairman of the
Wilson auxiliary committee. says his
observation leads TO the opinion that all
the apathy due to overconfidence is dis
appearing. General Vandiver and Dam
iel j. Loden, chairman of the State
Central Committee and the City Com
mittee. respectively. give strong assur-
ance Of hard work by the organizations
Of which they are the heads.
