ssStill Hunt'' Fight in Ohio.

WHAT REPUBLICANS SAY OF THE DEMOCRATIC
PLAN OF CAMPAIGN IN THAT STATE.
In republican quarters 1t is said that the demo-
Gratis are making very decided ''still hunt" fight
in Ohio; that while they are holding some big
meetings they are doing great deal OF quiet work
and seem to be mainly relying upon that sort of
tactics. 1t is said that very recently marked
change has been observed with regard to demo-
cratic claims about Ohio; that some time ago they
talked about carrying the state while now they
speak only of keeping the republican majority
down. etc. Some OF the republicans believe that
instructions have gone out to democrats to avoid
ANYTHING like boasting, with the idea OF lulling re-
publcans into feeling OF security. while demo-
Gratis are working with all their might. An Ohio
the last week or two the democrats are not Claims
ing Ohio in october. In fact, they rather give 1t
up, saying there is no use trying to overcome the
republican majority. But all through the state
we find them working like beavers and quietly
telling their people II they Will turn out they will
win For two years past the democrats have beat
us because good many OF our voters did not turn
out, and now they are trying to create the impress
sion among republicans that the state is going
way, while among democrats they are doing all
they can to convince them that If they will only
go to the polls they will win That's the kind OF
fight they are making"
