also reported that the greatest of the aili-

surprise lies in the possible defeat for re-

Alliance and democrats waged a bitter
campaign against him, and a majority of
the districts contained one of their candi-
dates against the republican candidate.

for Senator Calls friends are confident of
securing the necessary sixty-six votes. The
causes for the largely increased democratic
victories in the republican counties are the
poll tax prerequisite aud the now election

thousands of republican negroes. and the
