But one great question eHirts. she saws. I'm onr
issue, Whether woman shall remain sunk below
the right granted to the negro or be elevated
to all political rights enjoyed by man. The

oEN. COLLIDE CONFIDENCE.


Gen. p. A. Collins has just returned from 4
western trip and WAS in . sansuine mood thi,
morning. He says:
"The tide ia coming our way: Grover Cleve-
land is going to be the next President. Gov.
Russell will be reelected and we have Q fair
chance Of carrying the fifteen electoral votes Of
this state
There isn't much noise in this campaign,
but solid work u being done. When you nota
that In New York, on the first day Of registra-
ton, 100 900 voters went to the offices and had
their names placed on the voting lists, it proves
that the people are interested. There Is no
doubt about New York. 1t will 60 democratic.
I'VE shall not only carry all the states neces-
sary to Clsveland's election, but we shall have
several votes to spare.
The third party movement has helped the
democrats rathor than hurt them. Most Of the
third party men are x-republicans-about
four-ffths, should say. They are republican
farmers who openly rebel against the unjust
tariff laws OF their own party"
Speaking Of state issues, Gen. Collins con-
cluded:
mo reason has yet been shown by the re-
publicans why Gov. Russell should not be re-
elected. They have refused TO treat Of state
issues, and that means they have no fault to
find with him. The honest. plain people OF
Massachusetts, admire him, and will, am con-
fident. return him TO the Office he has Allied 80
we'll"

In the ninth district the result is problemat-
zeal; Ex-Representstive Myron n. McCord
ought to be able to carry the district for the
republicans, but Representative Lynch. the
democratic incumbent, has been very indus-
trfous at Washington and has won to his sup
port The Indian element, which is very strong
In that district. 1t would occasion no surprise
among republicans il Lynch should win.
There Ia no doubt as to the reelection of
representative Nils P. Haugen by the republic
cans OF the tenth district as the district is re-
publican, but there will be some detection to
the popuiists from the republican ranks.
THE ESTIMATE on THE LEGISLATURE.
No estimate can be made as to the result in
Wisconsin on the Legislative vote, because Of
the chaotic state Of things incident to the SUI
prems court. The Legislature will assemble IN
extra session on Monday next and endeavor to
redistrict the state in accordance with the con-
stitution. The legislature to be elected will
choose United States Senator to succeed Sen.
ator Sawyer.

It will be seen that the tabuiated summary of
the congressional situation gives the republicans
six districts by maiorities based on the vote of
1883. two on narrow margins. The democrats
are given two districts by small majorities.
Conservative republicans are counting only
four districts sure for their candidates
The congressional vote Of 1890 affords no basi,
for calculations. The election Of that year was
full Of surprises. For instance, II. A. Cooper
the present Republican nominee, was defeated
in the first district. which is usually republi-
can stronghold. Congressman Chas B. CLARK
was defeated in the sixth district by Represent a
tive Miller, who had no thought whatever tina,
hecould be elected. And Congressman r, NJ
La Toilette was defeated in q tobacco-erowinp
district that had for years clamored for the
high duty on Sumatra leaf tobacco provided
for in the new tariff law.
In the first district II. A. Cooper, the repub
licau nominee, who was defeated two years ago
will undoubtedly be reelected over Representa-.
tive Babbitt by plurality Of over 5000
In the second district Representative Barwie
will be closely pressed by ex-Representative
Lucien B. Caswell. the republican nominee
who Is sttrring up good deal Of enthusiasm.
The third district will undoubtedly elect J.
W. Babcock, the republican nominee, over A.
H. Krouskopf, his democratic opponent
There will be hot fight in the fourth district
(Miiwankee), now represented by John L.
Mitchell, the millionaire democratic Congress
View rolling mill district, is making q strong
run on the tariff issue. Mitchell will probable
be elected by small majority, but Often has q
good fighting chance. The district, as IL is al
present constituted. was democratic BY q mar
row margin on the congressional vote In 1888
but President Harrison carried it bya plurality
Of 1854.
Julius wechselberg, q popular Milwaukee
herman, who resides in that portion Of the
city which was added to the fifth distric BY
the new apportionment, is giving Representa-
tive Brickner the democratic candidate, very
strong run. There are many wool raisers In
the district, and the fact that Brickner, who Il
the owner Of a wooden mill, voted for free wool
is being used against him.
The democratic candidate in the sixth dis
trict, Owen E. Wells, was nominated by . ruml
convention after Q prolonged deadlock. ant
the present democratic representative, L. NJ
Miller, Is making an Independent run. Thi
gives the republican candidate, Judge Emit
Baensch Of Manitowoc, q fine opportunity t.
secure an election. There r. also o populis
candidate in the district.
In the seventh district George B. Shaw, thu
republican candidate. win undoubtedly sue
coed Representative Frank p. Coburn. Hi
plurality will be ct least 5000.
The republicans Of the eighth district viii
probably elect their candidate, Col b. A. Fran
bach. Kankanna paper manufacturer. Lyman
E. Barnes, the democratic nominee, h not pop
ulax, even in his own party.

Eight for certain close dis tricts there.
This Il reasonable view Of tho Aeid ~ seen
from this standpoint. 1t will be seen from this
that the democratic chances for success in In
diana and New York are apparently 30 close
that a prediction Of the result IL dangerous. II
would be folly to say that the democrats are
confident Of success or that the republicans are
confident Of success. II 10 20 close that no.
body could be confident.
There are i've states, with seveuty-hve cleo

the vote four years ago would reverse the re-
suits in these states.
There are eight states, with ffty-one cleo
toral votes, in which the plurality four years
ago was less than $500 votes.
There are two states whose electoral vote
might be sufficient to change the result whose
plurality four years ago was less than 600 votes.

These are samples Of the demands that the
county Officers Of the state win be kept busy
considering from now to election time. They
indicate concert Of action among the oppo-
nents Of the democracy and demonstrate that
the night for fair election is not confined to
Bullock county. All Of the pent up bitterness
that had begun to show some signs Of abate-
ment within the past month viii be kindled
anew by these proceedings and the campaign
In Alabama from now to It's close will be little
lees than q crusade Of hate
II Will be fortunate il Alabama ends this
memorable struggle without the repetition Of
scenes that belong TO darker page in her poiiti-
cal history. Beyond this result Il 10 not certain
what ends this particular form Of procedure
will accomplish. Its merit IS q remediable
measure remains 10 be tested. The third party
people have not assumed to call into exercise
the federal statute without the sanction Of their
lawyers, and they claim that their remedy IN
der the particular section of the law invoked Is
complete.
Weighed against this opinion are the views Of
the other side, which may b succinctly stated
by review OF an opinion expressed by we'll
Known Alabama lawyer. As the case Of national
interest Just now the views Of the gentleman In
question are pertinent:
nc cites stato statute 352, which PROVIDES
that the Judge Of probate, sheriff and clerk Of
the circuit court shall appoint three inspectors
for each polling place, two Of whom shall be
members Of opposing political parties. He
cites section 65lh, Revised Statutes providing
penalty for every officer of an election at which
4 member Of Congress Is chosen who shall neg-
lect or refuse To perform any duty required Of
him BY law or shall violate any duty or know
ingiy do any act unauthorized by law with the in
tent 70 Affect said election or the result thereof
He then says It In plain to pc seen after sxani-
nation Of section bo15, Revised Statutes, that 1t
does not apply to the judge Of probate and cir
cult court clerk Of Bullock county. ut is sp-
parent TO every reasoning man that the judge
Of probate and clerk Of the circuit court are
not officers Of the election TO be held on No
vember 8, wherein q member Of Congress Il to
be chosen. The plain purpose and intent Of the
statute is directed against an officer who par
ticipates In holding such an election and VIC
istes the law, requiring Of him certain duties
a. an election officer" The lawyer concludes
For the reasons stated, IT Is my opinion the
federal government does not and will not exer-
else any jurisdiction over the present cases."
How this view will compare with the decisions
OF the court Of final resort will not be known
In time for the purpose immediately involved
but the Anal adjudication Of the cause viii fur
nish precedent that will make the Bullock
county arrests celebrated In the political annals
Of the republic.

The man with the gun had said
nothing; but the subtleties of the
holding-up process were not so fine
but that Zach understood every
wave of the strangers hand and
every shrug of his shoulders, when
the waves and shrugs meant any
thing. Zach had been held up be-
fore He of the calico mask did not
step forward at once. In this sug-
gestion that he should assist in TAX

some trick. But one of Zach's hands
was held aloft and the other, with
the four reins in it, was on the level
of his shoulder. The man edged up

The robber pulled and hauled at

it caught on a nail-head in the
bottom of the wagon. In his feverish
anxiety to secure the gold, he lower
ed the revolver little and grasped
the box with both hands. Swiftly

A flash, a report, and back fell the

But the hold was not to be had, and
he gave it up, and lay there quietly
in the dust.
