COLUMBUS, Oct. 9.-The rush OF business at
the different state headquarters this week is
simply tremendous. Both the Democratic and
Republican polls of the state are complete, and
knowing the weak places in their lines the
managers are moving everything except the fixed
stars to prevent losses in some localities
and to increase the prospective
gains in others. The Republicans had poll
which gave them some confidence, but 1t was
taken some time ago, and they are no longer
talking about 20, 600 majority or any majority at
all since the tremendous tide of popular feeling
has set in within the past two weeks. The
Democrats have much more accurate
poll, which on a conservative estimate
will give them the state bya little more than last
years majority, and they do not propose TO have
the grip wrested from them by the money power,
imported voters, repeaters or any other fraudu-
lent methods
One thing is certain, the managers at head
quarters on both sides know to a certainty what
is needed here and there, and in arranging for
the final charge there is hustling
time OF 1t. IL will be the greatest
political contest fought out on
Ohio soil. With The elements enlisted to do
vice there will be bad blood, passions will be
aroused and blood may be spilled. The state is
disSraced already, and many are living in perfect
dread OF the coming of next Tuesday. The
Democrats are onto all the schemes of
the Republicans. Letters come pouring
into the Democratic state headquarters
daily telling Of the agencies of the
corruptionists and threatening to mob Dudley if
he shows himself in their counties Some of
them say: "Hang him!'' s'Kil him - sLet
him come here; we are laying for him!''
The Democrats in charge OF the local organi-
cations never were more vigilant and active
They do not propose to have the Indiana game
played here. They say they are ready to
repe all frauds and ballot box suffers and TO see
that the will of the people is not defeated. Tho
tricks Of 1880 in other states to bedefeated in
Ohio.
A prominent gentleman who was in congress
twenty years ago says, an indication of the
trickering and chicanery in Blaine's make up,
that when he was first candidate for speaker he
promised everything. The Ohio delegation was
going against him, and he said he would do
more for them than anyone else. They said
theyYanted James A. Garfield made chairman Of
the committee on ways and means. This was
promised and they supported Blaine, but he did
not keep his promise, and afterward got back
his letter from Garfield, in which he had made
the promise.
There is one thing that neither the Democratic
nor the Republican poll Of the state reports cor
rectly and that is the prohibition vote. The third
party never had complete organization before
or any considerable amount of money. This
year they have both. Last year the wonderful
organization for the secou amendment extended
iuto eyrey ward, school district aud town
ship. The prohibitionists have captured
the entire organization of that
movement for this year and they feel confident
that they will poll from %, 600 to 10000 votes.
and the common rule of estimates this year ia
thnt the Democratic majority viii be in proper
ton 10 this vote. IL they cast Do, 600 votes the
Democratic majority will not be less than 40,
600
The Greenback-Labor party, which has been
cssting abont 5000 votes, has done nothing in
this state and will not be much ahead of the scat
tering vote this year
