The Election, To.morrow.

the regent disturbances In the South and
there will be a"general curiosity TO GEE
the effect ol those disturbances on public
sentiment in such influential quarters e.
peciallylin Ohio, Indiana and Iowa.
Among our nelghborS over the rive
the vote will be for q Secretary Of State
and other officers on a general ticket
and for twenty representatives to the
Forty.iourth Congress. There are three
State tickets in the feld-Republlcan
Democratic and Prohibition. At this
time Ohio has seven Democrats and
thirteen Republicans in Congress. The
Democrats are from the First, Second,
Fifth, Seventh, Twelfth, Thirteenth and
Fourteenth Districts. It Is not likely
there will be any material change in the
delegation. Special interest Is attached TO
the election in General GARF1RID's dis
trict, in which there Is Boilers ticket,
and also to tho Cleveland District, in
which PARSONS, the Republican nominee,
is opposed by many Republicans on ac-
count Of alleged completely in the lobby
schemes at Washington.
ln,the Sixteenth District, Immediately
adjoining US, Captain LORENZO DANFoRD
will certainly be reelected by a large
majority. His vote in 1872 stood "A $50
to ll,052 for Colonel PooRMAN, Liberal
and Democratic candidate. In other
words, his majority was 3,209. Weknow
OF no circumstances likely to endanger
this majority. The aggregate vote will no
doubt be smaller than in '72, but the ma.
jority will be relatively as large. The pro.
hibition candidate will not materially in.
terfere with his success. The meeting at
Martins Ferry tonight closes the cam.
paign in the District, and we hope that
the Republicans there and elsewhere
throughout the District will turn out in
their strength tomorrow at the polls.
In the State Of Indiana there are State
officers and thirteen members Of Congress
to elect. Also Legislature that will
have the choice Of new Senator to sue.

can. More than ordinary interest at.
taches TO the complexion Of the Legisla.
ture on account Of the feeble character OF
Senator MoRToN's health at this time. II
is possible within the next year that there
may be two Senators TO elect. In the
present Congress Indiana ig represented
by five Democrats and six Republicans.
There are three State tickets in the field,
Republicans, Democrats and Independ-
ents. The State is doubtful. Governor
HENDRICKS (Dem.) had 1,149 msjority
in October, 1872, and GRANT carried the
the State by 22,5l5 in the November fol.
lowing. Both Republicans and Demo.
Gratis occupy pretty much the same posi-
tIon on the currency question and both
are in favor Of initiation.
In Iowa the vote Tomorrow will be
for State officers and nine Congressman.
The two parties are Republicans and
Anti-monopolists, the latter being drawn
from all parties. Tho Granger element
Is strong in the State and is almost wholly
with the Anti.moropolists. The Repub.
licans carried the State Tor GRANT In "
by 10000 majority. Their real majority
however has. been from thirty to forty
thousand. The railroad and transporta-
tion question enters so largely now into
the politics OF the Western States that Il
Is impossible to forecast the result o
elections. On the general issue thosC
States are nearly all Republican. Or
side issues they arc liable 10 take new
departures.
In Nebraska, there is Legislature tc
be chosen tomorrow that will elect U
s. Senator. There arc four State tickets
in the feld-Republlcan, Democratic, In.
dependent and Prohibition. The State
gave GRANT 10000 msjority in 1872
There is only one Member OF Congress
to be elected. The State will also vote
Tor or against a Constitutional Conven.
tion tomorrow.
In Arkansas the Republicans do moi
recognize the action Of the constitutional
convention in fixing tomorrow Us q
day for the election ofstate officers. They
intend 10 continue to recognize Brooks aG
governor, and will appeal to Congress
Augustus Il. Garland Is nominated fol
Governor by the conservatives. The
Congressional election takes place No

In Dakota the election will be for {
territorial delegate. The candidates are
numerous. JRFFRRsoN P. KIDDRR, Rep.

Vermont. There has been Republican
majority in the territory for several years
and, in view Of the.opposition candidates
