The eleventh district is republican for Com

bly, republican. although in that part Of the
state the combination OF populists and demo-
Gratis VIII make strong showing against the
republicans.
To summarize the situation the democrats

much doubt. The republicans are sure i'm the

ESTIMATES AS TO ELECTORS.
The democrats will elect electors in the east-
ern district at large, the first. second. sixth.
seventh. eighth and tenth districts. The re-
publicans will elect in the third. fifth ninth,
eleventh and twelfth and the western delegate
at-arge. The fourth district elector will be for
Weaver
Those prognostics are based on a careful and
conscientious review of the situation and on
estimates and advices received from nearly
every district. With the lack of demonstration
which has characterized this campaign how
ever. estimates are difficult to make and no cal
culations can be made on landsides- Under the
Australian system the election tomorrow will
be so quiet and the splitting of tickets will be SO
easily and secretly done that the candidates
themselves will not know how they are being
treated until the ballots are counted. Both par
ties will make every effort to get out u full
vote. and an unusually large vote is expected.
The re- registration in this city and in Detroit
has been larger than four years ago. and every
man whose name is on the list will be brought
to the polls by one party or the other.

DEs MONIES. Nov. I'm Iowa 1t is expected
that 425, 900 votes will be cast. As no governor
is elected this year the personal popularity Of
Boies does not help the state ticket of the demo-
Gratis to any extent. Republicans expect to
partially retrieve the losses Of two years ago.
The chairman of the republican state commit
tee claims $1,000 plurality for Harrison and
nine out Of the eleven Congressman. At pres
ent they have only five. The democratic state
committee claims six Congressman and small
plurality for Cleveland, but comedies that the
contest will be close.
The alliance movement is not very strong,
and may not number more than 5000 votes.
Prohibitionists will very generally vote the re-
publican national ticket and the state may be
reckoned safely for Harrison. The local ques-
ton Of prohibition is not entering into the
campaign except in county contests.

Special Disp atch to The Evening Star.
BISMARCK, Nov. NORTH Dakota repub-
licans are not confident of carrying the
state as they profess. The attempt of Judge
Bennett to incite rebe ilion among democrats on
the fusion with the independents has not
proved a success, and the genuineness Of his
motives is generally questioned. 1t is probable
that the state will give Harrison q small
plurality. but the republican state ticket is in
great danger. The republican Congressman is
probably safe. The state legislature is claimed
by the republicans. and Alexander Mckenzie,
noted for his support of the lottery scheme, is
mentioned as the probsble successor to Casey
for United States Senator. He will be opposed
and probably defeated by Casey. The North
Dakota fusionists claim the state for their
electoral, state and congressional tickets. They
are confident that Johnston. the republican
candidate for Congress, will be defeated. They
have charged Gov. Burke with being tied mp
With the railroad corporations and have made
effective capital out Of the charge. A republi-

MONTGOMERY, ALA, Nov. THE indica-
tons for heavy vote by both parties
in Alabama tomorrow are good. The state
has not been SO thoroughly canvassed since the
war. There is scarcely a cross roads or hamlet
that has not resounded with echos of campaign
oratory. and there are few homes, however re-
mote or humble, into which party documents,
sent out by executive committees ''to educate
the Masses. have not been introduced The
consequence is the people are fully aroused,
and evidence Of earnest activity and deep con-

History of the Two Leading Mineral Pro-

The history of the Black Bear and War

furnishes a forcibIe illustration of the
great opportunities offered for safe and re-
r1uneratiye investments in mining enter

short course of four years these properties
have been so we'll developed with a small
expenditure that they wara recently bought
by that ex perleuced miner, james +. Ward
ner, for a Tacoma syudlcsts, for the sum of
sl56,000. These properties were located in
1887 by two prospectors named Hunter and
Dixon, for T. c. McGrath, of Ellensbura.
They were then sold, simply on their sur-
face showing, hardly any development work
having been don Oh them, to a syndicate
composed of Messrs. Bailay, Fresse.
Sam Siiverman, w. H. Taylor,
and Warren Huasey, for about
$4,000. They formed r stock company
called the 0phir Mining mpan In 1889
ths company expended about $1,000 in da-
velopment work and sinking shafts. Then
the property remained idle until the spring
OF 1890, when T.. j. AZ. Hale, Goo, K.
stocker and Mr.. Frye bought tina bonds ON
the mines from Bailey and Freeze. The
bono WAS for 100000, and the new owners
at once commenced active operations and
const ucted a tive-atamp mill. During n
run Of l36 days of the stamp mill bp3G. zoo
was turned out in gold bars. The Tacoma
syndicate pnla $4,000 IN cash. and within
the next sixty days tbs total purchase price

been shipped to the property, located n,

mine will be pushed vigorously.
