Solid for Harrison. Though Democrats Claim
Russelrs Election is Certain.

BosToS, Nov. Massachusetts VIII, on
Tuesday, choose Presidential electors, a
Governor and other state officers, an exec
utiye council of eight members, Is men,
hers of Congress and a Legislature, besides
county and local officers. There are four
state tickets in the field, Republican, Dem
ocratic. Prohibition and Peoples party.
The Peoples party is not expected to make
any material break in the ranks of the three
regular parties in this state, and the vote of
the Peoples party candidates will not be
collected by the Associated Press.
The campaign during the past three
weeks has been waged with great vigor on
the part of the Republican, Democratic and
Prohibition parties, and the total vote on
Tuesday is expected to he large. The Re
publicans began the campaign with a COM
plete reorganization of their state COM
mttee and the announcement by one of
their most prominent state officers that tie
defeat of Governor Russell, while it would
be difficult, was necessary this year to
maintain Republican ascendency in the
state. Their campaign has been waged
with this one end in view. The interests of
the Democratic and Prohibition parties have
been practically in the Same hands as dur
ing the two or three preceding campaigns
The result of the Presidential ticket is
not considered doubtful. The Republicans
claim the choice of Harrison electors by n
plurality of not less than 10000 votes.
They think the total vote will reach $50 900
against IA AS in 1883 and expect Harrison
to get about 2OO, 900 of the total to 10 900
for Cleveland and the balance Pro-
hibition and Peoples. The vote
in 1883 was Harrison. ls5 ,s92
Cleveland, Isl $50; Fiske, Pro-. Sol.
This is concetling gain of over 1000 for
Cleveland. They also claim the election of
their candidate for Governor by a plurality
considerably less than that for President,
but still substantial aud the balance of
their state ticket by plurality little short
of that for President. They assert that
their canvass of the state warrants all that
they claim.
The Democratic managers on the other
hand conce,le that the choice of the Harrison
electors is probable, but think that there is
"a possibility. in view of the uncertain atii-
tndc of large proportion of the electorate,
that the result on the Presidential ticket
may he Il surprise. They confidently ex-
pet.t the reelection of Governor William T..
Russell for third term. and. while they do
