force Of the current swept the mud piles
down the gutter, leaving them scattered

Twelfth street from Market to Main

BosroS. Nov. 3.-The election in Massa-
chusetts tomorrow is for state officers, con-
gressmen and the legislature. The Repub-
licans, Democrats and Prohibitionists have
tickets in the field. The Union Labor party
failed TO fle nominations in season to Sc
cure place on the official ballot The
state also votes on TWO amendments to the
constitution, one to prevent the disfran-
chisement of voters because of change OF
residence within the commonwealth, and
another providing that no person who has
performed honorable service in the coun-
try's defence shall be disqualified from vot-
ing on account of receiving or having re-
ceived aid from any city or town, or be-
cause of the non-paym ment of poll-tax.

IOWA Much COMPLICATED.

DEs MONIES. Ia, Nov. 3.-The peculiar

ticular interest st this time. The state ofi-

Republicans Weakensd by Their Posi-
tion on the Liquor Questioa.
LIxcoLu. Nov. a-The election in this
state tomorrow promises 10 be the closest
and most hotly contested in its history.
The situation can be fairly termed uncer-
tain. Four tickets are in the field, and of
these the Republicans and Farmers AL
lance claim the victory. At the Repub-
ican state committee headquarters in this
city Chairman Watson claims the election
of the entire state ticket by pluralities OF
from ZOO to 1900. No direct expression
of opinion or estimates can be gained
from the Democratic or Alliance headquar-
tiers other than the claim of success for
their respective tickets. with the exception
of the Second district, where the Demo-
Gratis and Alliance have fused. There are
three tickets in the congressional districts.
Chairman Watson claims pluralities for
the Republican candidates.
The question of adopting prohibitory
amendment is playing an important part
in the race for governor. Richards, the Re-
publican candidate, has refused to declare
how he stands on the question. John III.
Powers, the Alliance candidate, is non-
committal, while James E. Boyd, Demo-
crat, is strongly opposed to the amend
ment There will be . greatdeal of scratch
ing. The result on the prohihltory amend
ment is problematical. both sides claiming
the victory by about 25.000.

MISSOURI VERY LIVELY.
Democrats Will Gain No Congressmep-
senator Vests Seat Unsafe.

6r. LOUIS, Nov. 3.-The chief interest in
the election tomorrow centers in FIVE con-
gressidnal districts and the new legislature,
which is to elect United States senator.
The state ticket, which embraces only SUI
preme judge. superintendent OF public in
struction and railroad commissioner,
is conceded to be Democratic A hot
campaign has been conducted in the
doubtful congressional districts. and the
Republicans confidently assert that they
will hold their own and perhaps gain one
member. The Republicans have com bined
at several points with the Farmers Alli-
ance and Union Labor party, and have
hopes of securing the legislature and elect
ing Republican successor to Senator
Vest. The Democrats vigorously combat
this claim. however, and hope for congress
sional gains. The prohibitionists have q
ticket. but do not cut much of figure in
the campaign.

In Walla Walla county there is some

In Stevens county the fight is close. The
Republicans have usually carried this
county by 100. Both sides claim they viii
elect their full ticket.
In the other counties indications point
to the usual vote. The tariff has been the
supreme issue of the campaign. It seems
probable tha; the protection afforded lead
by the Mckinley bill will hold stevens and
okanogan counties in line Opinions differ
as to the effect of the Australian ballot
system, which has greatly increased the
number of voting places. Some think this
will confuse voters and cut down the vote.
while Others claim it will have an opposite
effect. as it will bring voters nearer to their
polling places.

Republicans Will Likely Win.
ST.. PAUL, Nov. 3.-Mlnnesota is one Of
the most interesting political states Of the
Northwest this fall. from the fact that the
phenomenal growth of the Farmers Alli-
ance within the last six months makes il
likely that this new party Will tomorrow
cast over 25 per cent. of the total vote OF
the state. As Minnesota has heretofore
been strongly Republican, the growth Of
the new party has naturally been at the
expense OF the dominant party, but With
four full state tickets in the field, the De-
mocracy land the Farmer Alliance having
failed to combine, and the chances are
still slightly in favor OF the Republican
ticket
The most sanguine party in the state 10
without doubt the Farmers Alliance, and
they claim the state by 1000 TO 1000 plu-
rality. OF course the older parties contest
this. but it is frequently conceded that
either of the three parties is almost equally
liable to win. The Republicans claim tho
entire five congressional districts of the
state, but in several of the districts their
claims are stubbornly contested by she
other parties.

Bitter Fight ON Mckinley.

Republican Congressmen Gerrymandered
Bitter Fight ON Mckinley.
CINcINxATI. Nov. 3.-Ohio voters will be
called on to elect secretary of state, judge
OF the supreme court. member of the board
of public works. besides congressman. The
election of members of congress is the first
under the reapportionnent made by the
legislature. By the vote OF two years ago.
six OF those would elect Republicans, viz:
the Second, Tenth. Twelfth, Eighteenth,
Nineteenth ana Twenty-Erst. The others
should elect Democrats. The campaign
has had very little of state issues in it The
election of congressman has made the ma
tional issues important factors in all the
speeches.
Perhaps the most interesting feature Of
the campaign in Ohio is the candidacy Of
William Mckinley in the Sixteenth dis
trict. Last year the counties in his district
gave Democratic majority Of 5000. yet
there has been = most earnest
effort by the Republicans 10 elect McKin-
ley, partly on account Of his value TO the
party in congress and partly as . vindica-
ton OF his policy on the tariff law.
Equally earnest efforts have been made to
elect his opponent, Judge Warwick. 70

Interest Centers in Decent PEOPLES
Fight ON Semi-Criminal Tammany.
NEW YoRK, Nov. 3.-The election in New
York state is for judge OF the court of ap-
peals. two justices of the supreme court,
thirty-four members of congress, and
members of the assembly. Hobert Earl.
the present Incumbent of the court Of ap-
peals, is on both tickets, Democratic and
Republican. The Prohibitionists and So
cialist Labor parties have candidates. but
the votes for these will hardly be an ap-
preciable element Interest centers, there
fore, in the vote for congressman, and
also members of the assembly, as the next
legislature will select successor to Sena-
tor Evarts. The Democrats are hopeful of
making some gains in congress, but the
Republicans are equally confident that
they will hold their own, il not increase
their number. While the Democrats are
making strenuous efforts to secure enough
assembly votes to elect senator. there Ii
very little possibility that they viii succeed.
Much more popular interest attaches to
the vote for municipal officers in New York
city than in the state Aection. The con-
test is between the Tammany ticket, headed
by Mayor Grant, and the Peoples NUM-
cipai League ticket. headed by Francis II.
Scott. q County Democrat, and which con-
tains both Republican and Democratic
names The latter ticket is lndorsed by
the Republican party and County DEM
ocracy, and has the active support OF all
the Republican and Mugwump papers.
