lows: California s votes, COnnecti-
cut 6, Indiana Is, Nevada 3, New
Jersey 8, New York So. Total num-
Der, III votes. 1t is clear that the
democrats have 153 votes sure; the
republicans have III votes sure.
The republicans have to gain from
the doubtful states but 80 votes
while the democrats must gain AZ
votes. Of the doubtful states Han
cock carried California by 70 votes ;
it is likely to 60 for Blaine this year,
because of his ardent advocacy of
of the anti-C Chinese bill. Connect
cut and Indiana are likely to go for
Blaine. New Jersey is sure TO go
for Cleveland, willie New York until
Tammany shows its hand is doubt
full. If California, votes, COnnec-
ticut, votes, Indiana, 10, and Ne
vada 3 votes go for Blaine he will be
elected without New York if New
York goes for Blaine he is elected.
Without New York the republicans
cannot win unless they carry Indi-
ana, Connecticut, California and Ne
vada. 1t is clear the contest is close
and that New York state is the bat
tie oround.-Herdld.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

Washington, August 1871


Washington, august 1911.
All tourists who come TO Washing
ton want to visit Mt. Vernon, and ev-
cry day except Sunday, the steamer
w. w. Corcoran, departs with pass
engers, for the last home of Wash
ington. Last Tuesday at 10 A. NJ,
| boarded the steam er. To the ac
COMPARTMENT of music by a band we
sailed down the river, leaving the
Capitol, leaving the Monument,
which may be seen until within mile
of Mt. Vernon, leaving all Washing
ton behind. Passing Alexandria,
Fort Foote and Fort Washington (the
latter in such state of decay as to
be entirely useless as defence1 we
reached, after a journey of two hours,
our destination. DISSEMINATING, We
followed the winding, shady path up
the hill, until we reached the tomb OF
George Washington. 1t is sr.all,
brick grotto. Looking through the
double barred gate | saw two marble
sarcophagi; one with the nationa
coat of arms engraved in marble, and
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1884-08-25
A FEW FIGURES.

The whole number of electoral
votes is 401; the votes necessary to
elect are POI. We concede to the
democrats the solid south, which
stands for 1873 votes; in this 'esti-
mate we include Virginia, West yir-
ginia, North Carolina, Tennessee
and Florida, states that enthusiastic
republicans claim as doubtful. We
believe there is a bare fighting chance
in West Virginia. Florida and North
Carolina, but the chance is SO slim
that we concede all these states to
the enemy. We claim as sure fol-
the republicans the votes of all the
other states save California, Connec
ticut., Indiana, Nevada, New Jerse,
and New York, which are considered
as doubtful states. The vote of thes
so-ealled doubtful states is as fol
