mere and there on the streets, warmly dis.
GUESSING the merits Of their candidates
There is considerable betting in uuiet
way, and the race for some of the county
offices will be so close as to make
1t decidedly interesting and exciting.

that Ireland, Tor governor, will
carry the state by over $1,000 major
ity, while some are betting that he
Will carry It by GO;OoO majority. The most
OF the betting, however, is confined to
the county offices. Last night there was
a great deal OF heavy work done in the way
OF logrolliHg and wire.pulling. The sa-
loons'were thronged untillate in the night
and the candidates drinks flowed freely.
The supervisors of election, appointed by
Chief Supervisor Bentley, at the instance OF
a lew greenbackers and republicans, has
caused Il great deal of d satisfaction among
all parties, and to that extent that the ma.
Jorlty OF those appointed have refused to
serve
