New York State Leaning to Bryan. Mr.

W. C. Kenyon, who has returned from a visit to New York State, tells us that the Bryan feeling is very strong. The conservative Cleveland Democrats, who opposed Bryan in former campaigns, are for him this year, and the great army of working men vho- used to vote the Republican ticket because they believed i i the full dinner-pail argument will this year vote according to their natural inclinations for the Democratic candidates, as they have seen from the present panic, which is much wcrse in the North than in the South that pros perity is in no way dependent on Republican adminstrations and high tariffs. Republicans admit the State is in doubt, and ih addition to the defection of the labor vote, there is trouble over the nomination of Huges for Governor.

If he is renominat- ed the sporting men will vote the reform people will vote Bryan. for County Commissioners. The county' commissioners met Monday, with full board present. Petition was tiled for new i tin roaa. near a.
