"Unless something like a miracle 'happens within tho next fortnight." he writes, "Indiana will give her electoral vote to 'Bryan this year. As the caso now stands the only doubt is aa to the size of his plurality. Thin is not likely to be Jarge—frojn 10,000 to 30,000—and on that account the republicans havo not entirely abandoned hope. They will, of course. * continue tho brave struggle which they have made against heavy odds since the beginning of the campaigns. . Even now. with all the facts against them, the republican leaders do not openly admit defeat.
