Missouri was never more surely dem
ocratic than it Is today and In a 10
days' visit to Indiana I became con
vinced that that state was almost sure
to go for Bryan and Kern. I found
Mr. Kern exceedingly strong tn his
state, and whether Indiana is carried
by democrats or republicans, the party
made no mistake In nominating him
as Mr. Bryan’s running mate. He is
was stabbed and his body placed on
the track with a view to making his
death appear accidental.
