The election or this year Will be famous in our
politics for the extraordinary clOSeneSS Of the vote
In several important states The most striking ex-
ample is New York. where, in a poll OF a million
and quarter votes, the plurality either way will
not exceed three thousand: and on this thread
hangs the balance. But other states are equally
close. Indiana, West Virginia, Michigan, New Jer-
sey. Connecticut and Wisconsin are all wavering
between the two parties, with scarcely feathers
difference In no OF these states viii either of
the leading candidates have majority, and the
plurality WILL in most OF Them fail low in the thou
sands II not IN the hundreds. Never has there been
an election when the traditional appeal for the last
voter should have had more weight. The aged and
infirnn, the lukewarm and careless vote has prob
ably settled the contest one way or the other.

February an even greater success than
