NEBRASKA DEMOCRATS
Give Up the Fight-Fusionists and Anti
fusionists Now Fighting.

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 6.-Since the secre
meetings of the Democratic state commit
tee, here two weeks ago, at which it wa,
agreed to support Weaver electors, ther,
has been a great deal of disappointment
among certain leaders. This eliminated
last night in a meeting here which was in
tended to be a love-feast, closing the cam
paign.
DR.. George l.. Miller presided, and in
opening the meeting he took position
against fusion. He argued that nothing
was to be gained and urged his Democratic
friends to vote the straight ticket.
Gov. Boyd. who has been at the head o.
the fusion from the start spoke next. lie
said the state was irrevocably lost to Cleve-
land, and the only hope for the Democracy
was to vote for Weaver. He stated that
the other side had always led the party to
defeat, and urged the Democrats TO vote
for the Independent electors.
J. Sterling Morton, candidate for Gov
ernor, accused the Fusionists of treachery,
saying that to vote for Weaver electors
would aid in destroying the chance of Dem
ocratic victory. He argued at length on
the position taken by the Governor, and
was roundly applauded. The meeting broke
up in some disorder.

PORTLAND. Nov. 6---The campaign in
Maine, having been practically settled by
the September election. has been quite dull
since that time, the liveliest feature having
been the turning out of the opposing cam
paign companies amicably in the Columbus
Day procession at Portland,
The Republican plurality in September
was y ,4l2 and may fairly be expected to
reach the same figures or little larger one
in November. In lsss the Republican
plurality for Governor was Is ,o53 and for
President 23.25s. In that year the Repub-
hcan vote fell off about 5000 in November,
but the Democratic vote fell off nearly
II 900.
In 1854 the Republican plurality was
about &c, 900 for Governor and for Presi-
dent, but each party fell off over 5000 votes
in November.
A secret movement might bring out full
Democratic vote in November, but it could
scarcely be effected without warning their
antagonists and bringing them ont also. So
Maine mas be considered as good for 49,
900 or - ,00o Republican plurality, against
20 200 in iss>.

Harrison and Reid.

CoNcoRD. n. H., Nov. j.-Information
received at headquarters on the most rels-
BILE and conservative basis points to the
election of Hon. John B. Smith, the Re-
publican candidate for Governor, by the
people by good majority. In the first dis

candidate, is making a magnificent fight
and every indication points to his election.
In the second district | confidently expect
the election of Hon Henry NJ. Baker, the
Republican candidate. The Republicans
of the district are working unitedly and toe
outlook is extremely cheerful.
Returns from all the towns indicate sub
stantial Republican gains and the probabil-
ty of an increased majority in the House
of Representatives as well as in the SEN

The situation in New Hampshire is ex-
tremeY cheerful to the Republican cause.
and am confident of the election of the

MONEY TALKS.
How Some ofthe Sporting Men Have
Placed their Cash on the Election.
Plenty Of Harrison nsasy Safely Placed
Some Big Bets Mads.

NEW YORK. Nov. c.-Fifty thousand
dollars of the Democratic money was de
posted at the Hoffman House on wednes
day night to be bet on Cleveland's election
Abon. $40, GOO of this was covered by Har.
rison betters, many of whom were profes-
sional sporting men. 1t was announced by
Edward kearuey, Demo cratic. that $780,
600 more was ready to be placed in the sams
way.
BY Thursday the figures in Cleveland's
favor were 10 to nine and betting continued
steady at these odds. The closing quota
tions Saturday night showed very few bets
registered at even money.
George Wheelock, bookmaker, placed
about $50, 900 on Harrison, betting both on
the state and general results, and still has
$4,000 left. Michael +. Dwyer is per-
sistent plunger of the Cleveland side. His
wager of $50, 900 to Sl2 900, that the Dem
oerats will win in this state, is the largest
made Mr.. Dwyer did not care to lay
much more money on the general results.
Ex-Alderman Storm stands to lose
Sl3 900 if Harrison wins and 5000 if he
carries this state. Edward Kearney, who
is confident that Cleveland will win, is said
10 have nearly $780, 900 in all staked on the
result. Wagers ranging from $500 to
s5000 are common ON the exchanges,
Cleveland reigning rs the favorite.
BILLY" Edwards claims to have held up
to him Saturday night 100000 of stakes,
the most being from even money to ten to
nine on the general result.

NEW YORK.
Situation as Viewed by chairmen Of the Re-
publican and Democratic Committees.

New YORK, Nov. 5.-Tbe story told by
the registration figures, both in New York
city and the counties, is one that promises
nothing but defeat for the Democratic ma
tional ticket The extreme limit of Demo
cratic possibility in New York city is CO.,
900 plurality, This, with their other votes
below the Harlem, will give them 12,5o0
votes as against : ,03l in 1888.
There is not a politician of any standing
in any party who does not know that on an
honest election this is the remotest limit of
Democratic possibility.
THOMAS II. CARTER.
Chairman Republican National Committee,
New York.
There is every reason to believe that the
Re publican electoral ticket will be success
full in New York and that President liarri-
sons plurality will be larger than it was
four years ago.
The state committees information from
all the counties is cheerful, and the reports
promise the heaviest Republican vote ever
known. All the indications at this date in
the campaign are far more encouraging
than they were at the same period in the
canvass of 1888.
WILLIAM BRooKFIELp,
Chairman Republican State COMMITTEE.
! New York.
From what have learned there are ex-
tremely few Democrats in the city of New

are thousands of Republican voters whose

nothing to shake our confidence that New
York is Democratic.
