But- urday. The Republicans have proven by their last-hour methods that they are on the run. and have given up the light. They are sending out mislead~ ing circulars; they are making misrep- resentations. and are resorting to every means to relieve their situation. 0n the matter of the presidential ticket. I feel that Connecticut may fairly be classed as a doubtful state. Indeed. the vote that Bryan will receive will astou- lsh many. and if McKinley carries the state it will be by a narrow margin. We shall certainly elect. our full state ticket by a madcrity over all. We shall also elect Cildersieovctc Congress In the Second District. and the Fourth District will remain doubtful to the last.

Both parties are directing a drive at the Smy-at-home vote. and unusual pro cattltlons are being taken to get out the vo e. ,. The Republican leaders are. appar- ently. as confident as ever. and the Democrats are today possessed of all enthusiasm which leads them to talk of a Democratic landslide. u—n...
