Ill, Oct. 1.—A_ state- Chicago, meut issued from the national den ocratic headquarters pute a brigh face on the «Jection prospect. The) et t statement follows: The polictical outlook at the clone | of September is of the most satisfac: | tory The democratic national managers are confident that | the cause of Bryan and free silver character. bas received a warked impetus dur-| Mr Fred Miller, of Irving, Lil, | | especially | ing the Jast ten days. From every quarter from the central comes reports that farmers every where are flocking to the Bryan gtandard while in the cities there is every indication that an overwhel- ining msjority of the labor vote will be cast for the free silver nominee for President In many of the central western states the democratic managers have completed their first poll of the returns indicate that Bryan will carry every one of them by immense majorities. A poll of Kansas shows that the Bryan electors will have 50,000 ma jority in that state. A similar poll of Kentucky shows that Bryan’s majority will not be less than 20,000. Fusion has been consummated in in Michigan, a result which, in the estimation of the most conservative politiciane, gives that state to Bryan by a large majority. From nearly every county in Obio estimates indicate the Bryan will carry that state by not less than 20. 000 majority. A Republican poll of Nebraska shows that Bryan will carry the state by 25,000. Estimates from Iowa give the state to Bryan by more than 30,060 majority. 3 A poll of Missouri gives that state to Bryan by 50,000. The Democratic canvass in Illinois gives Bryan nearly 40,000 majority outside of Chicago; while Chicago is expected to give him at least 25,000 majority. Taking the reports from the cen- tral western States and adding to them the States conceded by the Republicans, the Democratic mana- gers claim the following States as absolutely certain for Bryap: Ala bama, Arkansas, California, Colora- do, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Neva- da, North Carolina, North Dakote, Oregon, South Carolina, South Da- kota, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vir- ginia, Washington, Wyoming, West Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, Min- nesota, Michigan, Iowa, Illinois, In diana, Ohio, giving Mr. Bryan a to tal of 317 electoral votes. western states FROM OHIO, Democratic Managers Claim Encour- ugement.—Republicans Say Ev- erything is in Good Shape. Washington, D. C., Sept. 28.—If Babcock and Mercer, the ruling spir- its at republican headquarters here, have received any communications on the subject of the surpriee to which Congressman Beach of Ohio treated the party leaders a few days ago when he declared himself as be ing in favor Of silver, they will not make known the contents. ‘They ad- mit they read in the papers the re ports of the sensation caused by the | Cleveland member, and that they were semewhat shocked, but they claim the whole matter rests with the local republican managers. It was conceded many months ago that Representative McClure intended making his fight squarely on the free coinage issue, regardless of what the St. Louis Convention might do. He announced through this correspondence several times that he weuld not abide by the St. Louis platform if a gold standard declaration was made. At Democratic headquarters the managers almost te a man state that | their advices from Ohio are that from eight to ten of their candidates for Congress seem reasonably certain | of being elected, and they would probably get more but fer the fact | ? r as they charge, that from ten to twelve of the republican candidates deny in their speeches they are for the gold standard.

C, Oct. 1 —It is rumored that when the Senate re convenes in December and the nom- ination of Secretary of the Interior Francis is placed before that body by the President for confirmation, his appointment will be thrown out. According to the rumor, the Demo- cratic and Republican silver men of the Senate have resolved te make matters as uncomfortable as possi ble for Mr. Cleveland from now un til the close of the administration. Of course, the nomination af Sec retary Francis was distasteful to the silver men. WILL LE A MOT TIME Eaeh silver Senator ig preparing for a series of fights on appoint- ments which have been made during the recess, and the executive sessions of the Senate during the months of December, January and February promises to be unusually exciting. The moment the Senate refuses to confirm the nomination of Mr. Fran cis the office of Secretary of the In- terior would be vacant. It would not be surprising, how- ever, if the President reappointed the Missouri manu and called upon his friends in the Senate to pestpone further action so that Mr. Francis might serve during the remainder of the administration asa Cabinet officer, notwithstanding any adverse action taken. The Ideal Panacea. James L Franeise, Alderman, Chi- eago, says: “I regard Dr. King’s ew Discovery as an ideal panacea for coughs, colds and lung com- plaints, having used it in my family for the last five years, to the exclu- sion of physician's prescriptions or other preparations.” Rev Join Burgue, Keokuk, Iowa, writes: “Ihave been a minister of the M E church for 50 years or more,and have never found anything so beneficial, or that gaye me such speedy relief as Dr. King’s New Dis- covery.” Trial bottles free at H L Tucker's drug etore. 46 4 Great Crowds Cheer for Nominee Bry- an in West Virgina.
