These people are to be met | with in every county In the state, and I feel | quite certain that they are sufficient in num- | ber to more thau overcome the Bryan ma- | jority of four years ago. Republican gains this year will come from all classes; the peo- | ple recognize that Mr. Bryan is not a pro- | found statesman and they feel that the des- | tiny of this country must not be placed in | the hands of a man lacking in experience | and who depend® entirely on theories of | government instead of practical and well | tried methods. It Is safe to say that the | people of our state are satisfied and want no change. Mi | ake in Pablished Figures, “There is a misunderstanding on the part of the public regarding the vote of Wyoming in 1566, The World Almanac| and_ Encyclopedia gives Bryan's plurality a5 553 and on this basis pelitictans have figured. This is wrong according to the biennial report of the secretary of state of Wyoming tor 156 The average plu- rality for the Bryan electoral ticket was 234 The lowest on the Bryan ticket had a plurality over the highest on the McKin- ley ticket of sixty-six. Highest on the Bryan ticket had a plurality over the low- est on McKinley ticket of 378. Taking the | average plurality for Bryan as given by the World Almanac, 583 is a mistake. Bryan gets credit for 320 votes which he did not receive. The maln issue in that | election was 16 to 1, but this is eliminated this year, as the sllver issue 1s dead in| Wyoming. It will be a equare fight with | expansionists od one side and anti-expan- slonlsts on the other; that is, ‘Shall we pull down the flag in the Philippines or keep it where our soldlers and sailors have placed it?" “The people of the west and especially of Wyoming are expansionis's. They regard the placid waters of the Paclfic as an American lake and the Orient as a market for west- ern products. The new merchant marine which is to be built on the Pacific coast will be supplied with Wyoming coal which the Dingley tariff has brought into the mar- ket. Western farm products will be carried to the Pacific islands and continents te- yond. Western fron will be used in the construction of railroads in the Oriental countries. Wyoming people are too pro- gressive, too intelligent and too patriotic to be caught and frightened by the cry of “imperfalism.” That term was invented to scare ignorant people, of which there are a few In Wyoming. The democrats are ig- noring the tariff question, but notwithstand- ing it will be in the campaign in this state, as the people are thoroughly educated on this point and have realized that this may mean more to them than ever, consequently this will influence the vote to a very large extent."

He said there was no Chinese Prince Yungedo. It is not a Chinese name. 1t might be, the minister thought, a Japanese name, but, personally, he knew of no such person, Yungedo i Not Known, At the Japanese legation the dispatch of Admiral Remey was read, quite natur ally, with the deepest interest. There, too, 1t was said that Yungedo was not a Chinese name. No Japanese official of that name was known to the legation attaches. Thelr solution of the question raised by the dis patch was that the name should be Yung Lu. He 15 the commander-in-chief of the im- perfal Chinese troops, and is said to have strong pro-foreign inclinations and sym pathies. 0 conjecture was offered as the reason for the detention of the dowa to I\'"r‘\ Among Washington off- | clals it is regarded as hardly likely that the empress dowager is belng detained by any Chinese official.

Pekin compriscs possibly four cities in one. In extent of area it is about the size of New York City. The four segments of it are the Chinese city, the Tartar city. the Tmperial city and the Forbidden ecity.

Late lagt night the Japanese minister Mr, Takahira, recelved the following ad- vices from the Japanese foreign office at Tokio The under foct: The foreign forces attacked on the east- ern side of Pekin Wednesday morning. The enemy obstinately responded. In the en- gagement the Japanese blew up the Chlao Yang gate and the Tung Chih gate of the Tartar city and succeeded in entering. In the meantime the other foreign forces en- tered the city by the Tung Plen gate. T tachments were sent jmmediately to the legations and opened communications. The ministers and staffs were found safe. The Jupanese loss was over 100, Including three oicers, namely, Captain Michiiye —and Lieuteriant _Watanabe, wounded, while Lieutenant Yazaki was killed.

The officials of the Japauese leg tion are much elated at the spirited gal- lantry displayed by the mikado's forces during the advance upon Pekin and they have received with unconcealed pride the congratulations of not only the officials of this government, but algo of the diplomatic representatives of other countries at this capital.
