AN interesting sketch Of the "Passion
Play" as performed at Oberammergau
will be found on another page.

IT WILL BE gratifying to most of our
citizens after the polls close this even-
ing to feel that the campaign is over.
II imposes many duties upon voters
that cannot be escaped-that must be
done by somebody. These duties are
patriotic because they are necessary to
the formation of our republican gov
ernment. 1t is not little trying often
to the best hearted men that after they
have discharged such duties they come
in for the denunciation of oflight-headed
people who delight to be thought no
party men or independents. After
the election such people strut about
as though they were of much import
ance, when in fact if it were not for
the men they denounce as politicians
we would have no government at all.
To. morrow we hope all will be peace
full and serene, whether the result Ia
for US or against us. We have tried ia
discharge every duty to our party and
to our country and think we have done
so and feel sure that Delaware will
record her vote for Hancock and Eng.
lish and that they will be triumphantly
elected.

CHICAGO PREPARING TO
NULLIFY REP UBLICAN
RASCALITY,

CHICAGO, November L. Every
effort of the Democrats and Inde-
pepdent Republicans to induce the
solid Republican Board of Super
yisors of Cook County to provide a
proper number of polling places
having failed, the Democrats have
decided on a course of action which
when fully understood will alarm
their opponents not little. There
are 81 900 registered voters in this
city, and in all probability there are
20 900 more who were unable to get
their names on the registry books in
the brief time allowed them. The
population of the city-503, ,0OO-in-
dicates a vote of not less than
ITO, 900. Only 130 precincts have
been provided for this enormous
vote, and that not more than rs per
cent. of it can be cast is absolutely
certain. At every polling-plaee,
therefore, in this city tomorrow the
Democrats will provide box guard,
ed by three reputable citizens and
landholders, and when the regular
boxes have been closed these men
will take the votes of all citizens
shut out, with their names and ad-
dresses, and this record, it is intend
ed. will then be sent to Washington
for the consideration Of the House
Of Representatives. The reason
that the Democrats have for belle
that the trick of the county board
will injurs them more than then
opponents is that all strongly Re-
publican wards have been glveI
additional voting places, while Dem
ocratic wards have not less thai
900 and in some cases i 500 reg
istered voters at each poll. 1t i
probable that in counting the ele
toral vote next winter a motion will
be made to exclude that of Illinoi
| for the reason above given.
