Various Congressional Districts.
BALTIMORE, Md, Oct. 23.-Al the
candidates likely to be presented for con-
gressional honors are now in the field. In
the First and Second districts there is very
little doubt of the election of Hon. Charles

candidate. II. A. Borss the candidate of
the labor party, and D. w. Glass labor re-
form candidate. The Republicans have
made no nomination and will generally
support Mr.. Borse. In the Fourth district
there are four candidates, Isador Raynor,
regular Democrat; Hon. John V. l. Find
lev, independent Democrat; j. Weatherly,
regular Republican, and S. G. Sanks, col
ored. Republican. In the Fifth district, which
includes one of the strongest Democratic
wards of the city. Hon. Barnes Compton
will probably be selected over the Repub-
lcan candidate. In the Sixth district gem

Hon. Louis E. McComas, it is expected,
will be returned over Col. j. W. Baughman.

appointed United States pension agent at
Knoxville to succeed Robert Taylor. Demo-

appOintee was major of the Thirteenth

MILWAUKEE, Oct. ga gentleman of
sporting proclivities in this city. who some
times dabbes in politics, is offering to bet
that the ProhibtlonisJs will poll more votes
III the state than the labor ticket will, and
also that the former will get over 25, 900
and possibly 80. 900 votes. He is further of
opinion that Gov. husk and the Republican
state ticket will be beaten. but does not de-
sire to make bets on the latter proposition
Although these statements may seem a
little wild, there is plenty of foundation to
build prophecy on. The Prohibitionists
have worked hard for two years, and have
over four hundred clubs in the state. the
members of which are generally enthus-

addition to this, they have the sympathy of
the churches, because of a plank in their

Canvass In Augusta.

The highest obligations resting upon
every member of the Democracy of Au-
gusta is, to vote and strive by all honorable
means to induce the wavering or unsettled
in opinion to vote for Captain Bumgardner.
To accomplish anything, requires organi-
cation, and the time is at hand to complete
the organization.
At the Lexington Convention which
nominated Captain Bumgardner, the Au-
gusta delegation unanimously agreed, and
80 made open declaration, that if that body
would nominate Augusta's favorate son a
sweeping majority should be counted fol
him-a majority greater than ever cast fol
any other candidate and rivalling the party
strength Of any previous contest. Thus
the promise became a personal obligation
binding every member to the full perform
ance of duty, which will not be satisfied
with less than the majority in view. From
other counties, there come good reports,
and the question is asked if Augusta means
to maintain its purpose. Of course it does
but the workingmen and all the Committee
men should be up and doing now, and moi
rest till the sun goes down on election day.
The foe is active and with ceaseless vigi
lance striving for the prize. An over
whelming majority was promised. That
we can give. Let US do it.
