Governor Boies has made a vigorous can
yass, sometimes delivering three speeches
in one day. Wheeler, the Republican
nominee, has made personal handshak-
ing tour Of the state, and has had the serv-
ices Of able stump orators. The Peoples
and Prohibition parties have also been ac-
lively at work. The Democratic victory Of
two years ago first astounded and then
aroused the Republicans. They entered
this contest determined to regain their
lost ground, and the Democrats were no
less determined to retain their own ascend
ancy. The result has been a campaign Of
Unprecedented activity. The battle has been
fought on the tariff and prohibition issues.
In 1889 Governor Boies was elected by a
plurality Of $500 In round Numbers he
received $4,000 votes. His vote was sub
stantially the same as that received by
Cleveland in 1883, while the Republican
vote was less than that cast for Harrison.

earnest and enthusiastic political contests
ever known in Ohio. The campaign has
been fought on national issues almost ex-
ciusively, with the understanding that the
successful candidate would make q strong

issues have received some attention.

Democratic seven times The Republicans
have not failed TO carry the state at every
presidential election during this period.

The campaign ia this great political
battle ground has been decidedly unique.
Never have greater interests, from the
partisan standpoint, been involved never
has canvass been conducted with greater
earnestness and industry. "You lost the

next year.
Novel Features Of the Campaign.
The situation is not without other novel
aspects. We behold Grover Cleveland and
George William Curtis. the New York
Times and The Evening Post arrayed on
opposite sides, while Lieutenant Governor
Jones has been most pronounced in his
support OF Fassett. The contest presents
every Indication Of uncertainty Not since
1879 have the Republicans elected a gov
ernor, and their victory then was due to a
split in the Democracy. But this year the
Republican leaders appear sanguine Of
| success.
Fassett's Numerous Speeches.

this state has presented such a united
front Fassett has spoken in nearly
every county in the state and conduct
