-Four States hold their election.
IN October, viz: Ohio, Indiana

ably 20 Republican. although thi,
is II OF regarded as absolutely eel
tain, ana her three electoral vote,
will not be apt TO make any de.
cided difference on either side
Georgia and West Virginia NAV
both be conceded to the Demo.
Gratis. The former gave a Liberal
majority of 1896 in 1872. and the
latter a small majority of 2,S64
for Giant oat Of total vote oI
about G2,0O0. IN the election OF
1871 the State went Democratic,
and may be fairly reckoncd on
that side in October, though by Il
somewhat decreased majority.
There seems TO be no doubt that
the principle contest on the 10th
OF October will be in the States
of Ohio and Indiana. Should the
Democrats carry beth these il
must be conceded that they have
ground for entertaining strong
hopes Of success in November.
Had these elections been held on
the 10Th Of September, there
might have been Il possibility OF
success, aided in Indiana by Til
den's liberal contributions to the
campaign, and the personal intiu-
ences OF Governor Hendricks in
his own State, but a. the situa-
ton now stands, every day rem
ders that possibility Of success
more remote. II must be borne
in mind tlat the total vote east
at ordinary State elections. and
the real temper Of the people Of
Ohio was shown by their majority
of 1851 for Grant in 1872. Indi-
ana's majority for Grant in the
same year Was 22,jlj, notwith-
standing The Democrats had car

den and his party in Indiana is the
strong feeling Of the soft money

constant exercise Of party infu
encc and party discipline to keep
them from becoming disaifected,
while in Ohio the unoxccptiona-
bic character Of the Republican
Congressional nominees through
out the State give the party Il de
strength. 1t seems hardly
a question now that the RcDubli-
cans will carry Ohio, both in Oc-
tOber and November, and the
moral effect Of a victory here in
the earlier election can hardly be
over estimated. Indiana is still
and can not now be
claimed for either party. Should

cess Of Hayes & Wheeler is AZ

ion.
