THE CONTEST IN OHIO CLOSE.
At Present II Looks as II Foraker
VIII Lose.


COLUMBUS, November 5.-Eiection day
dawned in Ohio clear and cold Reports re-
ceived from all parts Of the State speak Of
the beautiful weather and general large vote
polled everywhere.
Governor Foraker came up from Cincin-
natl tonight. but was so fatigued that he
bad to go to his home and rest
Chairman Neal, OF the Democratic State
Committee, claims Campbelfs election by
from 5000 to 5000 plurality This estimate
is based on supposilion that Hamilton coun-
ty has given Campbell 5000 plurality and
on the reports from other towns and cities,
which, outside Of Hamilton oorniy, show
decided Democratic gains. As to the Legis.
lature. be is in doubt He thinks, however,
that it may be Democratic on joint ballot.
THE REPUBLICAN FIGURES.
Ex-Cbairman CappeIler, of the Republican
State Executive Committees figuring on the
returns in Governor Forakers Office. assisted
by Mr.. Douglass. He says
Il feel confident that Governor Foraker is
N4NNNt0s w iOA OpiIGAt lldlltiitOn EDUHiE
TO Campbell by 5000 or 1900 The county
outside Of the city is 900 Republican. Even
if the Democratic plurality in the county
should be 1000 the Democratic gains else
where in the State must average 81 votes to
elect Campbell. The returns 50 far have
been from.eities and towns where the liquor
vote was against us and where liquor deal
ers were against Governor Foraker.
The country districts have rot been
heard from to any extent We are sure Of
holding our own there and ARE likely 10
make gains. A very liberal estimate is an
average Democratic gain outside Of Hamil-
ton county Of 41 votes to the precinct.
WHICH WOULD ELECT sovERSoR FoRASER
by 500 10 1900 plurality The Republican
State ticket will be elected by large plural
ity. The Republicans claim the Legislature
certainly. They claim a.divided delegation
from Hamilton county and a majority on o
joint ballot, which would assure The election
of Republican United States Senator.
They call attention to the fact that when
Hayes defeated Thurman, The former on the
night Of the election c0nccdsd the latter 5
election BY 5000 plurality.

IS Virginia the registration lax Of the
State provides for striking off from the
lists of registered voters each year, the
names of disqualified and deceased vo-
ters, and the addition of the names Of
new voters. 1t is provided, also, that
there shall De notice posted of all names
proposed to be stricken off on "Motion
Day." and the person thus stricken off
has four days in which to appear and
prove that he should be retained on the
list. The Democratic practice this year
has been to post at wholesale the name
of every Republican voter in precinct.
But as soon as the notice was posted up
a Democratic henchman came along and
tore it down. The Registrar having pro-
cured an affidavit that the posting had
duly taken place, at once proceeds to de-
clare all the names stricken of, without
giving hearing to the agrieved parties,
and thus Republican voters are disfran-
chised by the thousand.
II is against such tricks as this that
General Malone has to contend, and yet
we hope to see him successful.

Irish World.

Irish World.
The death Of Ex-Governor Hartranff, OF
Pennsylvania, calls TO mind an incident in
his official life that has n5tappeared in any
OF the obituary notices. Il is this: Some
time ia the Seventies man in the coal re-
gicns Of Pennsylvania was arrested on
charge Of 8 capital ofiense, was tried. con
victed, and sentenced to be executed. The
day fixed for the execution was the i7.h Of
March. which in that year happened to fail
on Friday. The attention of the Irish World
was called to the coincidence by Irishmen
in that section OF country. and some ex-
pressed Indignation, suspec,ing that il may
Rave been more than a coincidence. OF
course. we did not share In that suspicion /.
st the same time we thought. in view OF the
fact that Ireland was the native country OF
the unfortunate man, and that some feeling
had been evoked, the date Of the execution
ought to be changed. and We sent a requst of
that kind 10 General Hartranh, who was
then Governor Of the State. In acknowi-
edgment the Governor thanked rs for calling
his attention TO the matter. assured us that
the date hxed by the court was purely acci-
dental. that is. 80 far as ST. Pairick's Day
was concerned. and promised to postpone
the day Of execution. The man wss after.
ward par'ioned, and by accounts be is now
living the life OF good citizen.

FREE TRADERS have great deal to say
about how protection fools the poor,
hard-wOrking farmers" The facts are
that upon such questions the American
farmers are hard men TO fool. They take
and read the papers, and have plenty OF
time to think. There are no better IN
formed men upon political questions than
the farmers. 1t is because Of this fact
that free-traders never have been able to
make any headway with them.

GLESs FAILS, n. y. Nov. 2-This afler-
noon Albert Tenant, an erpploye of John
Miller, a farmer living one and a-baIf miles
north of the village OF Glens Falls, drove
into town With wagon load of snakes. 1t
seems that Tenant aud two other raen were
occupied in building blind ditch and bad
occasion for few sods- The ditch was being
built through piece Of low lying swampy
ground. Tenant went over 10 a sandy knoll
near by aud began to remove the sods from
the top With shovel. The loose sand soil
beneath the sods seemed to be mass of
squirming snakes He called the others to
his assistance and they dug down about four
feet throwing out snakes by the shovel full.
The reptiles we're from three or four inches
10 two feet long and were none OF them
probably over a year Old. Three men killed
snakes until they grew tired 0ae man
slaughtered 500 and then stopped counting.
