FIGURES ON KANSAS. THE DEMOCRATIC CHAIRMAN GIVES ESTIMATES. 8 HOW IT LOOKS TO MR , JONES , Hn Places the Minimum Majority or the Allied Forces at 30,184 Over the lle- publlcau - Ticket Ills Outside Populist Guns to Wnd Up the Campaign With a Hush Other Political News. TOPEKA , Kan. , Oct. 20. W. C. Jones , chairman of the Democratic state cen- tral ¬ committee , in reply to a letter from Tully Scott of Oberlin inquiring in regard to the political situation since the meeting of the Democratic central committee October 7, has written the following : "Since the central committee meeting the change has been steadily toward the allied forces. They are being increased continually , and our majorities are certainly improving every day over our Republican ad- versaries. ¬ . You ask what my figures are on what will be the probable re- sult ¬ I believe the increased vote this year over two years ago in the state will De 51,000 , or in other words , while we cast a vote two years ago of only 21)4,000 ) in round numbers , this year our vote will reach 345000. This leaves an un- accounted ¬ for vote of 51- 000 , - , at least one-third of which , I believe one-half , will go to the allied forces , while we concede to our Re- publican ¬ adversaries two-thirds of that unaccounted for vote. Robinson's vote two years ago was 71457. From this we subtract 7,737 resubmission Repub- lican ¬ votes which were cast for Gov- ernor ¬ Robinson. I arrive at this re- submission - vote by adding together the total Republican con- gressional ¬ vote in the seven congressional districts which certainly is the maximum Republican vote of this state , no Republican voting against his congressman on account of the liquor or any other question. This is the cold political strength of the Republican party of 1S90 , which is 122702. Whatever Go'ernor Hum ¬ phrey's vote fell short of that is the resubmission vote , which is 7737. Subtracting this vote from Governor Robinson's total vote leaves him 03,514 Democratic votes , which , added to Willitt's 100,972 makes a total Democratic and Topulist vote of 170592. Add to this one-third of 51,000 increased vote over their 1S90 and you have 187592. This subtracted from 345.000 total vote of the state leaves the Republicans but 157,408 votes , a majority in favor of the allied forces of 30,184 votes , which is the/ minimum majority which the allied ticket will receive and which is about 9,000 less than our poll of the state now shows. The success of the allied forces is as certain as it was at Waterloo and no bulldozing or bluffing can change the result. " SUTSIDE POPULIST SPEAKERS.

THE FIRST'-WORLD'S ' FAIR ETEH. Special Kxerclses Held All Over Chicago The Great City Lltcr.tlly Covurotl With DutoratlouiN'ot.iMu .au-sts Arriving From All Directions Mexican Hand on the Way to the Fair. CHICAGO , Oct. 10. To-day witnessed two important events in connection with the dedication of the world's fair and these were followed by the inaug- uration ¬ , reception and banquet at the Auditorium. The first event was the celebration of "Columbus day" by the school- children of the city , and youthful en- thusiasm ¬ was given the widest play. The committee of state and city super- intendents ¬ had arranged a programme for the celebration in the public schools and the children exe- cuted ¬ the order of exercises with vim simultaneously in the scores of school buildings , which were all decorated. First came the reading of President Harrison's proclamation. This was followed by a flag raising and the pupils saluted the colors , pledged their allegiance to the flag in concert and sang "America. " The next feature was the reading of the scriptures or sonic acknowledgment of the divine being. Each school then joined in singing "Columbus- Day. . " In the primary grades the little ones recited patriotic verses and sang little songs , while in the grammar and high schools historical essays were read and declamations delivered and Joaquin Miller's song "Columbus , " ' as arranged by 0. Elackman , was sung. Singing of "The Flag of the Free" by each school closed the exercises. Dividing attention during the day with the school celebration was the arrival from Washington of the cab- inet ¬ officers , members of the diplo- matic ¬ corps and justices of the supreme court , to say nothing of multitudes of other distinguished guests offi- cial ¬ and unofficial from every part of the country. The day was clear and cool and the city was gay with countless banners flut- tering ¬ a hearty welcome to the many strangers. All the ilags were un- furled ¬ , nearly all the festoons , rosettes and shields in placa and Columbus was smiling down on the people in the streets from thousands of nooks and corners. Mon ¬ day's and yesterday's rain had clone almost no damage. Terra cotta , which was selected as the municipal color for the Columbus decoration , was not used as extensively as had been expected.but Italian and Spanish flags helped to relieve the sameness resulting from the lavishness with which from every possible point the red , white and blue was displayed. Distinguished Guests Arrive. There was a no table crowd of Chica- goans - at the Twenty-second street station of the Pennsylvania depot when the trains bearing the cabinet officers , supreme court justices and diplomats rolled in. Among those present were Judge Lyman Trumbull , J. S. Harlan , Judge Otis , George W. Cass , J. S. Hewitt , D. L. Ayres , E. G. Mason , VC. . Goudy , J. L. High and other distinguished members of the Chicago bar. W. C. Goudy and J. L. High were appointed a committee to meet the supreme court train at Grand Crossing.

Adju ¬ tant General Stry ker of JN ew J ersey will represent Governor Abbett at the de- dication ¬ ceremonies. Governor Burke of North Dakota arrived at the Great Northern to-day , accompanied by his wife and two little daughters and the members of his staff. Governor Horace Boies of Iowa and Governor David R. Francis of Mis- souri ¬ arrived over the Burlington road this morning in the directors' car , which was attached to the regular train. Neither governor was accompanied by his staff. They entered a carriage and were driven to the Auditorium. Although no reception committee was on hand to meet them , the crowd recognized them as they passed from the depot and they were lustily cheered. They walked arm and arm through the crowd , stopping a minute to lift their hats in response to cheers. The Reception's Patronesses. The main feature of to-day's part of the week's festivities was the re- ception ¬ tendered to-night by the prominent citizens of Chicago to their guests. The Auditorium'theater was transformed into an immense dancing hall , were the decorations were in- Spain's red and yellow and the banquet halls elaborate with similar fes- toons ¬ and flowers. John Hand's or- chestra ¬ and Sousa's band furnished the music and no expense was spared to make the affair one of unexcelled magnificence. Scores of distinguished ladies were present and a ted as patronesses , among whom were Mrs. 'Potter Palmer , Mrs. H. N. Ilig- ginbothara - , Miss Hig'ginbotham , Mrs- .Lyman . Gage , Mrs. Nelson A. Mills , Mrs. John M. Clark aud Mrs. P. TL Sheridan. The costumes worn were the handioircst ever seen at any pri'vious {fathering. General Nelson A.

" Many police oflicers from other cities are arriving in the city to assist the local police in their detection and ar- rest ¬ of thieves during the dedicatory exercises. The distinguished citizens from other points were well accommodated in Chicago to-day , but not so the lesser lights that compose that great general public. Visitors of this class poured into the city all day long by thou- sands ¬ , but found great difficulty in securing rooms.- A . Mexican liund on Its Way.- ST. . . Louis , Mo. , Oct 20.

Campaign With a HushOther Political News.

TOPEKA , Kan. , Oct. 20. W. C. Jones ,

chairman of the Democratic state cen-tral

¬

committee , in reply to a letterfrom Tully Scott of Oberlin inquiringin regard to the political situationsince the meeting of the Democraticcentral committee October 7, haswritten the following : "Sincethe central committee meetingthe change has been steadilytoward the allied forces. They arebeing increased continually , and ourmajorities are certainly improvingevery day over our Republican ad-versaries.

¬

. You ask what my figuresare on what will be the probable re-sult

¬

I believe the increased vote thisyear over two years ago in the statewill De 51,000 , or in other words ,while we cast a vote two years ago ofonly 21)4,000) in round numbers ,this year our vote will reach345000. This leaves an un-accounted

¬

for vote of 51-

000, -

, at least one-third of which , Ibelieve one-half , will go to the alliedforces , while we concede to our Re-publican

¬

adversaries two-thirds of thatunaccounted for vote. Robinson's votetwo years ago was 71457. From thiswe subtract 7,737 resubmission Repub-lican

¬

votes which were cast for Gov-ernor

¬

Robinson. I arrive at this re-submission

-

vote by adding togetherthe total Republican con-gressional

¬

vote in the sevencongressional districts which certainlyis the maximum Republican vote ofthis state , no Republican votingagainst his congressman on accountof the liquor or any other question.This is the cold political strength ofthe Republican party of 1S90 , which is122702. Whatever Go'ernor Hum ¬

phrey's vote fell short of that is theresubmission vote , which is 7737.Subtracting this vote from GovernorRobinson's total vote leaves him03,514 Democratic votes , which ,

added to Willitt's 100,972makes a total Democratic andTopulist vote of 170592. Add to thisone-third of 51,000 increased vote overtheir 1S90 and you have 187592. Thissubtracted from 345.000 total vote ofthe state leaves the Republicans but157,408 votes , a majority in favor ofthe allied forces of 30,184 votes , whichis the/ minimum majority which theallied ticket will receive and which isabout 9,000 less than our poll of thestate now shows. The success of theallied forces is as certain as it was atWaterloo and no bulldozing or bluffingcan change the result. "

Arriving From All DirectionsMexican Hand on the

Way to the Fair.

CHICAGO , Oct. 10. To-day witnessedtwo important events in connectionwith the dedication of the world's fairand these were followed by the inaug-uration

¬

, reception and banquet at theAuditorium.

The first event was the celebrationof "Columbus day" by the school-children of the city , and youthful en-

thusiasm¬

was given the widest play.The committee of state and city super-intendents

¬

had arranged a programmefor the celebration in the publicschools and the children exe-cuted

¬

the order of exerciseswith vim simultaneously in thescores of school buildings , which wereall decorated. First came the readingof President Harrison's proclamation.This was followed by a flag raisingand the pupils saluted the colors ,

pledged their allegiance to the flag inconcert and sang "America. " Thenext feature was the reading of thescriptures or sonic acknowledgmentof the divine being. Each schoolthen joined in singing "Columbus-Day. . " In the primary grades the littleones recited patriotic verses and sanglittle songs , while in the grammar andhigh schools historical essays wereread and declamations delivered andJoaquin Miller's song "Columbus ,

" ' asarranged by 0. Elackman , was sung.Singing of "The Flag of the Free" byeach school closed the exercises.

Dividing attention during the daywith the school celebration was thearrival from Washington of the cab-inet

¬

officers , members of the diplo-matic

¬

corps and justices of the supremecourt , to say nothing of multitudes ofother distinguished guests offi-

cial¬

and unofficial from everypart of the country. Theday was clear and cool and the citywas gay with countless banners flut-tering

¬

a hearty welcome to the manystrangers. All the ilags were un-furled

¬

, nearly all the festoons , rosettesand shields in placa and Columbuswas smiling down on thepeople in the streets from thousandsof nooks and corners. Mon¬

day's and yesterday's rain had clonealmost no damage. Terra cotta ,

which was selected as the municipalcolor for the Columbus decoration ,

was not used as extensively as hadbeen expected.but Italian and Spanishflags helped to relieve the samenessresulting from the lavishness withwhich from every possible point thered , white and blue was displayed.

goans-

at the Twenty-second streetstation of the Pennsylvania depotwhen the trains bearing the cabinetofficers , supreme court justices anddiplomats rolled in. Among thosepresent were Judge Lyman Trumbull ,

A reported outbreak of cholera at Ilclmetta ,N.
