Mean congressional committee from Illinois to-day as follows:“I was sent out five weeks to-day by the jRepublican state central committee of Illi- jnois to organize the Italians throughout the j stato and my report up to (late to the com- ; niitteo is that out of 27.000 voters in the : state 24.347 are solid for Major McKinley, j This great body of Italians are all organized ! Into McKinley clubs in all the counties and ; Cook county only will give 14,000 Italian votes j to McKinley. I assure you that four years i of hard times have given to the Italian i unions time to think and the free silver doc- | trine will not change them. Tho Popocrats j have served mo in different mining towns j with eggs, but I fought them on their own i ground every time and came out ahead. I j •will end my campaign the 2d of November, j then will sail for Chicago and cast my ballot for McKinley. I thought that you would he pleased to find out the truo situation of my nationality and without any doubt I place my conservative figures 108,000 for McKinley j and 35,000 for the state ticket.”
