BOTH MANAGERS CLAIMING A SAFE MAJORITY Even the most astute politicians have j been compel ed to acknowledge them selves be ffl--d whenjt comes to pre dicting with any degree of cortainty to day’* election. Whether it will be Bryan, o: wheth er it will be McKinley, will not be -with any, definiteness un* u this night. Both eurocrats and the republicans claim that victory will perch on their banners, and al most In the same breath allow that the contest will be the closest of any na tional election of recent years. Chairman J, K. Jones, of the nation al democratic campaign committee, and Mark Hanna are notable and promi nent exceptions to this rule. They claim an overwhelming majority for tldr respective Candidates. The lines of the contest have ben draw. na the issues of the groat campaign ac sharply dehned in the minds of the voters. As in the last, national campaign, the erpublicans have used money uusyint- has had practically an inexhaustible supply of money, and be has rot failed to avail iiUnset! u. the full oi hie resources. In the so-called doubtful states in the middle west—llli-ois, Ohio, Indi ana and Kansas, and in the east in New York, Maryland, West Virginia and Kentucky— republican oampaign man agers have been able to Becnre from national he idqaartera all tbe money they needed. Whatever strength the use oi this money has given the republican Candi da's is more than offset" by the tremen dous popularity and personal following of Mr. Bryan. His specchmaking tour* since the campaign began have been a continued and continuous scries of ova tione. Tho enthusiasm and attach ment exhibited by his adherents have never before been equaled in American politics. The magnificent demonstrations in New York and Chicago were pregnant with significance. The rosult o! the election of today maybe said to de pend on the two stales in which Mr. Bryan was accorded such tremendously enthusiastic receptions. The New York demonstration takes on an added significance when it Is re membered how far from friendly was the reception Mr. Bryan got in Tam many’s town four years ago. Both para ties claim New York state, but It is conceded that if Bryan can carry the etty by a large enough majority he will turd the balance the republicans bring down from nptho state In his fayor. On the eye of the election McKinley Is tavored in the betting at odds of four and five to one. Just bow meaningless this as indi cating the state of public opinion will be better appreciated when the national elections of Previous to tho presidential olectica of 1888 Cleveland was made a 3 to 1 fav orite In the betting.

Senator Jones ssye: “Viewing all reports from our organizers in states and counties in doubtful districts, the deep interest in the present campaign must have a significance. W have tbe best organization, state and national, ever seen in a presidential contest. Thera Is not a doubting Thomas in the whole organization. Under the cir cumstances there is no room to doubt that Bryan’s victory will be over whelming, and I expect to see his suc ceis conceded before 11 p. m, Tuesday. Reports from doubtful states are im proving every hour. 1 received reports from New Jersey yesterday of the most astonishing character. The assurances from Ohio are more than I could bope for; also from West Virginia and Cali fornia. Our friends In Illinois today arc more confident than over. Extrav agant republican claims now only excite derision. At one time before their character was understood we were un easy about them, but we were quick to perceive that, like republican offers to bet, they were mere bluff* to keep op oourage. 1 have no doubts about the result.” Word was telegraphed far and wide to democratic state leaders to work from now until the close of the polls, as If their, lives depended upon it.

Our Able Representative Handled the Issues ol the Day In a Masterly Manner. The fr.ends of Congressman W. G. Brantley were very much pleased by tho throng which packed the opera house last night to heal the closing speech of his magnificent campaign and all present will long remember the able, logical and patriotic gem of ora tory they heard. Mr. Brantley, always a speaker of ability, was at his best last night. All the Issues of the day were one by one handled in a masterly manner and it was clearly demonstrated that the democratic party is the party of the people. Mr. Brantley scored Governor Roosev velt, which seemad to greatly please his hearers. He said; "There is one man in this campaign who baa made enemies out of nearly every democrat. He is the man who carried on the Spanith-Amorican war. The man that killed all the Spaniards, Theodore Roosevelt. “Mr, Roosevelt in one of his speechea said that the demcrats were cowards, “Mr. Boosffvclt forgot that the first man to lose’ his life in the reoent war— Worth Bagley—was a democrat. “Mr. Roosevelt forgot that the man that sunk the Spanish fleet in Manilla bay—Admiral George Dewey—was a democrat. “Mr. Roosevelt forgot that the hero of tho Merimac—Lieutenant Hobson— was a demoorat. “Mr. Roosevelt forgot thatthe man who is the real hero of the war, and who sunk tho large Spanish fleet in the har bor of Santiago-Admiral Winfield Scott Schley—was a democrat. “Mr. Roosevelt forgot that the man who really saved the rough riders—a little dried up fellow, General Joe Wheeler—ls a democrat.” Mr. Brantley demonstrated to his audience how the McKinley admini stration supported the trusts. He told them of the armor plate trnsl, and how the democrats tried to pass a bill, di recting secretary of war not to pay over a certain price per ton for armor plate, but it was voted down by the republic cans, and now we arc paying more for this material than the trust charges other couutriee. Mr, Brantley ended hla speech by say ing that ho he hoped the people of this oountry would today elect the man who stands for the people—Wil liam Jennings Bryan, New Georgia syrup and buckwheat, lajt L. B. Roberts’, corner Egtnont and 4-lbsaarle streets.
