ever been inclined to regard as "prob-
able" the events they desire to happen.
And it usually holds rue that the
stronger they desire the greater the
probability appears. So it happens
that both Republicans and Democrats
may be found sanguine that New
York, or New Jersey, or Indiana, or
any other ''doubLful State, will be
carried by one or the other Of their re-
spective parties next Fall. Having
tabulated q Republican view of the
situation, says the Sacramento Bee, to
show how the party can succeed with
cut New York, let us present the case
from a Democratic point of view since
il il we'll to look at both sides. The
Democrats are reckoning, to begin
with, on the ''solid South" with its
I53 votes. With a "solid South, the
Democrats could win under a variety
of possible com binationr, OF which
the folio wing are the most readily
suggested :

There are ways in which the Demo-
Gratis might possibly win without New
York, for example:

Either Oregon. Nevada or Co~lorado.....

Under a great variety of possible
combinations any one of such young
States as Nevada, Oregon or Colorado,
may turn the scale. The contest bids
fair to be exceedingly close, and
neither party ian afford to leave any
stone unturned in the effort to secure
the victory.
The situation may be summed up
impartially rs follows: Sixteen
Southern States, reckonsd rs Deme-
cratic, cast 1853 votes. Sixteen Northen
States, reckoned as Republican, cast
l54 votes. There remained these six
States, which have been generally re-
garded as doubtful, whose Electoral
votes are as indicated

WfLKEsBARRE, Pa, Sept. 5.-Tho En-
terprise mines at Port Bowley, owned
and operated by Andrew Langdon. Of
Buffalo, was this morning tho scene of the
most extensive cavo in that has occurred
in this region for years. Nearly ono
hundred acres Of ground settling from
four 90 six feet The Lehigh Valley
railr oad tracks sank five feet, aud traffic
was stopped for some hours. The air In
tho mines was driven with tho violence
of an explosion, and forced its way out of
the shaft, almost totally wrocking tho
inside workings. The ground is covered
with seams aud cracks for several hun
dred feet, aud Ave houses belonging TO
miners in tho employ OF tho company are
wrecked. 1t Is feared the mine is ruined.
1t Is now full Of gas, and the water from
tho river and an abandoned working
near by is pouring through the assures in
the ground. The mules in the mino were
taken out in safety. Five hundred per-
sons are thrown out of employment.
The owner Of the mine was offered
$500, 900 last week for his interest in tho
coal left, but declined the offer.
A second fail took place at the mine
this evening. The cave in now embraces
f,flly 250 acres, extending from tho Sus-
quehanna river mp q hill to the fan house
Of tho mine, y distance of half n mile.
The fall. of rock this evening is thought
to have been enormous. Six mules were
killed. Even If the mine Is not flooded
out, It will be at least one year before IL
can be put in working order again. ~ is
difficult to estimate the loss, but it will
reach fully $4,000
