WESTON, October Put Lewis down for
15o majority for Hon. J. H. Good, Wheel
ing's candidate for Congress. Although
the Republicans are making a desperate
effort to carry this county, yet don't see
how 1t is possibleIfor them to accomplish
what would be an extraordinary feat. 1t is
true they have perfect organization
and an unlimited amount OF money,
and their power will no doubt pull
down the Democratic majority very
materially, but it cannot accomplish
their design-the capturing Of the county.
For thelast week enthusiastic and old time
Democratic meetings have been held in all
parts of the county, and all are thoroughly
aroused to the necessities Of the hour. For
the information Of some Of your people, !
will give the vote of Lewis county in the
past and what will probably be done on
Tuesday next. In 1880 Gen. Hancock re-
ceived a majority of 1856, which is the full
strength Of the party. Six years previous
Col. Wilson's majority was 124, but think
that Goods will certainly 60 above that
figure. Some think it will reach two hun
dred, but the most accurate estimate is one
hundred and fifty. Tom Edwards, editor
of the Weston. Democrat, and a shrewd
politician, makes the following analysis Of
the vote Of the district which is very in
terestng. He says: ~ o.r. =.
Allow Hancock and Tyler, Republican
counties, to offset Brook and Ohio, MARSHALL
to offset Wetzel, Doddridge so majority for
6off and Harrison $50. Now, Golf comes
to Lewis 400 ahead; Lewis viii give Good
$50 majority, This leaves Goff to 90 to
Gilmer with 80 majority. Gllmer will
surely offset this $50; and now how stands
the question? Braxton, the Gibralter OF
Democracy, with the 600 majority, has yet
to be counted. Goods election is, there
fore, assured.
Another estimate: Ohio will Offset Har-
rison; Goods vote in Wetzel and Brook
will overcome Gof'syote in Tyler Han
cock and Marshall Doddridge will be tied;
nothing either way.-Lewis gives Good $50
majority; Gilmer gives 325, and Braxton
525. thus giving Good 1000 majority in the
district, and We do not believe it is posi-
bic to make it less.

C1xcrSNATI, October s.-Money, money,
money. Republican greenbacks are as
plenty as blackberries in July. Candi-
dates have been bled, Government EN-
ployes have been squeezed till their pocket
books are as fat as Bob Ingersoll's prospects
of heaven, and Jay Hubbell has been drawn
on for all he will give in the desperate
effort to save Smith and Butterworth from
an ignominious defeat. But tits to no pur-
pose. Butterworth the blatherskite, and
Smith the custom house Khediye, are going
to getleft. Especially Smith. He has WELD.
ed the full force Of the Federal office holders
and Federal patronage in his interest, and
his threats, pleadings and importunities
have disguised many voters who would
otherwise have given him their support
Smith will get left by about 1900 votes.
Butterworth may do a little better, but not
much. But it is on the State ticket that
the Democrats will get in their liveliest
work. No Democrat of any respectabihty
at ALI will listen 10 anything under 1909
majority, and from that point it the figures
60 away up until it almost takes your
breath away to look at them. Re
publicans are going to the polls with
pencils in their pockets, and the
scratching will be something unprecedented
in Hamilton county history, But It will
all be on that side. Democrats will vote
straight from the shoulder, and great will
be the mourning in the opposition camp
when the ballots are figured up. The Lin
coin club is managing the campaign for the
RAIDS, and the number OF plump-looking
envelopes that left the chambers OF that

branch of the party. 1t is whispered
about in knowing circles that $500 will be
distributed to every precinct on Monday,
in addition to what has already been given
out, and it is fondly hoped that it will have
a very appreciable effect on the general re-
suit. Democrats are feeling good, and the
faces of the leaders and workers are bright
with the knowledge that good things are in
store for the party on Tuesday. Numerous
ward meetings were held throughout the
city last night, and the solid work OF the
canvass is over. But few finishing touches
in the various precincts remain, and then
for the ballots and the result. r-

MoUSDsvILLE, October 7.--Grocery store
and street corner politicians are busily
figuring on the result of next Tuesdays
ballot. Politics, until the last two or three
days, have been very quiet in Marshall,
but as election day approaches the people
are beginning TO wake up 70 the duties that
are before them. The Republicans have
been carrying on a quiet, still hunt for
some time, and the Democrats are just per-
fecting their organization. Good reports
come in from all sections OF the county and
especially from the northern portion, in
cluding Benwood. Indications in this
town point TO a largely increased Demo
cratic vote, and several Democrats go so
far as TO assert that they will carry Benwood
beyond a doubt Very effective work has
been done for the Democracy by the member
of the Congressional Committee from this
county, and il every Democratic vote is not
polled it will not be from lack of work. In
iS74 COTS majority in Marshall was 419
over Col. Wilson. In 1880 Garfield polled
21S6 and Hancock 1896 votes. Garteld's
msiority, 500. Republicans claim the coun-
ty BY a majority of 500, but this is exorbi-
tant, considering that his majority in "A
was only 4l9. Democrats say that Golf viii
not poll more than he did in his
last race and many claim that his
msiority will not go over 400. An inde-
pendent view puts his vote at 800 over
Good, which is almost correct. -

CLARKsBURG, October 7. - Mr.. James
Powell, respectable citizen Of this coun-
ty and a leading Greenbacker, was ap.
preached by a member of the Republican
Local Executive Committee, a few days
since, and was earnestly plead with to for
sake the nominee of his own party and es-
pouse the cause of General Golf and the
Republicans. Mr.. Powell was not the least
demonstratiyeli in replying, which made the
Republican believe that he had found his
man, and without any further argument
a fine silver watch was presented
that he vote for Golf and work
for the Republican ticket. Mr.. Powell be.
came indignant, but promptly accepted the
watch for the pnrpose of exposure, which
was handsomely done ut Greenback meet
ing the same night. Mr.. Powell, when
called upon for a speech, arose, with watch
in hand, and told the whole story. 1t is hav-
ing a grand effect in this county, and
many Of the Democrats, who had intended
to give Golf complimentary vote, have
become so disgusted with the corrupt
means being used to elect the ticket that
they now declare that they will vote the
straight ticket from A to q. Quite num-
ber of Republicans haveRlso become dis
gusted, and have declared for Good.
The campaign is now waxing warm, and
we have never had more hattering assur-
ances of the success of the whole Demo-
cratic ticket 1t has been said by the Tete-
gran,, of this place, that all the young men
are Republicans, and are hard at work for
the success of Golf and the ticket. We are
glad to inform you that this is not true,
and the young men are now doing more
work IN the Democratic cause than was
ever done in this place before. An enthu-
siastic meeting OF young Democrats was
held here last night, and a complete
system of work, from now until the close
Of the election was adopted. Old Harri-
son is Democratic, and these same young
men have determined to hold it in line,
even though there is no HubbeL fund,
nor watches at their disposal We expect
to win by voting principles against watches.

SpecIal Dispatch 10 the Register.
,GoLrMBUs, October S.-The campaign in
this State practically closed last night. A
few meetings will be held tomorrow IN To-
calities where the campaign has been ex-
ceptionally hot, but as rule the orators
will make it day of rest, not only because
they are somewhat fatigued after the hard
work of the past six weeks, but to allow
the people to remain at home, where they
will be laborcd with quietly by the town
ship and school district missionaries of
both parties. And, after all, this is the
way to make votes. Brass bands, proces.
sions and big meetings are all very well
calculated to rouse the enthusiasm OF a
party and enable il to poll It's tull strength,
but when it is desired to make inroads
upon the opposition, and there is nothing
like well organized missionary force to
labor quietly with promising subjects in
the privacy of the corner grocery or. the
cross road saloon. In this degenerated age
greenbacks and whisky are powerful agents
in the manufacture of votes, and play
much more important part than kerosene
oil and bass drums, although the effect is
not so apparent to superficial observer.
Democrats here see no occasion to abait
one lot Of their confidence in their ability
to carry the State Tuesday. Reports
from ali quarters are of the most sanguiue
character, and, unless all political
signs fail, victory is about to once more
perch upon the Democratic banner. There
is little change to note from my telegram
of Friday night, either as regards the State
ticket or Congressman, but that little is
favorable 10 the Democrats. Encouraging
words come from Steubenville and Bel
laire regarding the Seventeenth district
and the outlook in the First, Second and
districts steadily improves,
You can look for the Democracy TO sniil-
ingly take them all in forty-eight hours
later. Belmont county promises FIVE hun
dred majority for the State ticket, and sew
eral hundred better for Alexander, while
the Republican majority in Jefferson, Har.
rison and Noble is going TO be very small
indeed.
