James E. CampbelI WIN WIN.

A dispatch from Columbus to the
Cincinnati Post, dated October Nth
says:
Democrats everywhere are en-.
couraged. You can scarcely find
one in days talking who does not
believe Campbell is going to be
elected.
These waves of sentiment occur
in every campaign. There are
seasons of depression and exhilera-
ton in every canvass.
In the Hoadly campaign of 1883
the Judge started in with malaria,
as did Governor Campbell this year.
Until within three'weeks OF election
his cause was considered hopeless by
most Democrats, but all at once a
res ction set in. The sentiment in
favor of Hoadly started at the prop
er period in the fight and lasted un-
til he was elected.
In the next campaign Hoadly
was considered to have the advant-
age at the beginning; but about
two weeks before the day for cast
ing the ballots, the Foraker wave
set in. The Democrats all knew it
and felt it. There was an invisible
something in the atmosphere-the
bacilli of defeat.
Two years ago, Governor Camp
bells cause did not commend itself
as a victorious one until two or
three weeks prior to election.
1t set in then with tremendous
force. The wave rolled like the
oceans pillows, and gathered force
as it went. Democrats everywhere
knew Campbell was certain to be
elected. They feltit in their bones.
This year history is repeating it
self. When Governor Campbell
was nominated there was great en-
thusiasm for him. This was fol-
lowed by the Democratic Dol
drums" when he lay sick for six
weeks, while Major Mckinley
stumped the State.
His temperance on the stump,
however, his magnificent meetings
and fine campaigning qualities, his
debate with Mckinley at Ada and
the untruthful and slanderous re-
ports started by his enemies have
had the effect of making Democrats
take heart. They are now buoyant
and exultant. You can hear them
say on every side, in the language
of Peter Schwab: "Jim will win"
With the "two Jims"-one manas-
ing and the other running the race
they feel there is every chance to
be victorious. In addition to this,

Replying to the assertion of a
high protectionist that it would be
better for the country to import
Welsh tin workers and pay them
wages to make tin in America than
to send the money to Wales, the
New York World says:
Reckoning the wages of 10000
tin-plate workers at $500 a year
each, their pay would amount to
100000. Mr.. Mckinley says
that there will be paid into the
National Treasury this year, from
the (tax) on tin, s16.0OO,OOO. This
is all paid by American consumers
of tin-plate-which includes the
entire population. AS a business
operation, therefore, the World
thinks it would be better to board
the 10000 imported Welshmen at
good hotels, letting them do moth
ing, and buy tin-plate where it can
be bought cheapest. The Ameri.
people would save at least 100000
by the change.
