New York, Nov. 4. The republican
national committee gave out today the
following statement:
"On the eve of election the republi
can national committee's forecast of
the result, based on absolutely authen
tic and unimpeachable figures and
facts, differs from' its previous forecast
only in increasing the magnitude of the
triumph which Tuesday will , bring to
the cause of national honor and pros
perity. All the sources of the com
mittee's information including many
that are unwilling witnesses, concur in
indicating the conclusion that Tues
day's election Tvill prove a veritable
landslide for McKinley and seal the
doom of Bryan and Biyanism forever.
"The prime cause of this irresistable
and overwhelming popular revolt Is
perfectly obvious. It consists in the
desire of the people to (maintain the
prosperity which they have enjoed and
now entov under the Dolicies of the
McKinle administration, and in their
well grounded fear of public calamity
in case Bryan were to be elected. The
laboring tman, his wife and children
remember the poverty, .misery and -despair
which shrouded their lives in the
black years previous to McKinley's in
auguration, and they remember with
gratitude the relief which has come to
them since then, with abundant em
ployment and largely increased wages.
?'They listen now to Bryan's invita
tion to throw away their advantage
but they respectfully decline them..
"The business men of the United

"The farmers are not likely to forget
the evil day when they were reduced
to bankruptcy and almost to beggary,
and now, with mortgages lifted, their
farm products bringing greatly in
creased prices and their homes filled
with comfort and joy, they do not pro
pose to change itheir conditions at the
behest of the false prophet of 1896 and
the anarchist agitation of 1900.
"All who have remunerative work to
do, all who have wages paid them, and
who have a business to protect and de
velop, all who have money deposits in
savings .banks or invested in homes of
their own, have been confronted with a
threat to reduce the value of their
prosperity by one half and have been
asked to ratify this suicidal proposi
tion by their votes.
"As they constitute the great mass of
the American people and as they are
sane, sensible and honorable men, the
overwhelming majority for McKinley
(and against Bryan which Tuesday will
record is thus accounted for.
"The people know that the country
has prospered under McKinley; 'that
wages have risen to a higher rate than
ever before; that employment is
abundant for all; that the savings' of
labor have increased half a billion dol

For the Sportsman and Farmer.
Reindeer have made themselves thor
oughly at home in Alaska that mar
vellous country whose richness in ani
mal life and agricultural possibilities is
not yet half suspected by the majority
of Americans.
The pilgrim fathers of the family
were Imported from Lapland in the
early stages of the Klondike craze to
be worked and eaten by the starving
miners. They luckily escaped being
eaten, and were later reinforced by 700
reindeer doe imported by the Govern
ment from Siberia.
From the mixed herd of 1,000 head, or
a little more, they have multiplied to
3,000, and under Uncle Sam's protec
tion they promise to play an important

and mail carriers.
But Alaska needed no importations to

This is how he describes the Bunting
of the sea otter by Indians, wno can

"At least eleven canoes, each holding

hunters start out eacn is armea wiw
a rifle, and each man uses marked bul

are fired.
"When the nose of an otter Is sighted
the man finding it gives a signal and in
a few moments the little fleet is sur
rounding the creature. When the great
circle is complete as may be, the nose
of the animal may be a thousand yards
from the nearest marksman.
"A shot is fired at the black spot on
the water and it disappears. The ani
mal is capable of diving 3,000 feet un
der water, and it may not come up for
many minutes, but if the circle is well
formed it is not likely to break the
line.
"Tht instant the nose appears an
other shot or two is sent after It, and
the boats close In. Time and again it
comes up, only to be frightened down
again.
