RICHMOND, Nov. 6.-There is every
indication tonight that the Democrats
tomorrow will elect their State ticket
by from 10000 to 10000 majority and
secure over two-thirds OF the members
of the legislature. In every part of the
State tho voters are thoroughly aroused
and this being the case there is no fear
of defeat.
From every section reports that reach
here are cheering to the hearts of the
lovers of good government. The apathy
that is said to have existed week or
80 ago has disappeared and now on the
eve of the battle of ballots Democracy
is in fine trim for the fray.
Among the visitors to the Democratic
headquarters to day was Hon. Joseph T.
Lawless, OF Portsmouth. He stated
that the Secpnd district would roll ND q
splendid msjority for O'Ferrall and
send practically solid delegation to
the assembly. Mr.. Lawless is of tho
opinion that'Colonel O'Ferrall will win
by "a handsome In ajority
hon. IL. K. Pollard. who has rendered
tho party excellent service on the
stump, has just returned from Halifax,
where he has heen making speeches.
II alifax Is one Of the counties claimed
by the Populists, but Mr. Pollard saws
that county, in his judgment, will give
the Democrats some thing like 500 ma.
jority.
Wherever he spoke he had large audi
euceS and the voters appeared to be in
full sympathy with the Democratic
party. Like MI Lawless, Mr.. Pollard
believes that when the returns come in
ifrbf .,l,.
State ticket of the Democrats have car
ried the State by large majority and
the Legislature is Democratic.
Another person who had excellent
opportunities for learning how the tide
is drifting is Col. Meade Haskins, who
has been almost constantly on the
stump. Colonel Haskins, it is said,
places O'Ferrall's majority at 30, 600
In this connection it may be sta ted
that betting here in Richmond is ON
$4,000 majority for O'Ferrall The
Populists are said to be unwilling to
back their claims by their money. At
any rate no Third party man has been
found who Is rash enough to bet on the
election of Captain Cooke.
UP in Augusta county, the greatest
whlskey producing county in the State,
the Prohibition craze has taken hold of
" + 'So" many PCOplo. L h0 uOSb oNClClng
canvass witnessed there in forty years
ls about to close. The Prohibitionists
concentrated all their forces and
strength in Augusta.
They have made desperate effort to
defeat Hon. Edward Ecbols of re.elec.
ton to the State senate. but informa.
tion oday is to the effect that the
Democrats will carry tho county for
their entire ticket.

But Hart and the Dog were Not to lie
Found In 1t.
When the east bound Norfolk and
Western train rolled out of the depot
yesterday morning two men were seen
to give the departing coaches a close
race. The men were K. Randolph Hicks
and Deputy Sergeant r. T. Wright. Mr..
Hicks succeeded in making the train,
but the deputy sergeant was short
winded and failed.
The occurrence was brought about as
follows: A young man named Hart.
from Louisville, Ky, came to town
ACCOMPANIED by yellow dog, which
resembled Dick" Payne's dog, Mr..
Payne went hunting Saturday, and
Hart saw his dog and claimed it, and
swore out warrant for Paynes arrest,
charging him with stealing the dog,
valued at 81, 900.
The case was tried OF police court
yesterday morning, when it was proved
conclusively that Payne was HUNTING
with his own dog, and the case was dis
missed. George L.. Payne then in
structed his counsel, r. Randolph Hicks,
to bring suit for damages at $4,000
The papers were prepared, together
with an attachment for the dog, and an
indemnifying bond OF SIS 900 with Waller
Z. HUFF, az security, and given 10 Ser
geant Wright to serve. Hart and the
dog. boarded the train, but thew had
evidently hid in the baggage car, as thew
could not be- seen by Mr.. Hicks, who

WORK FOR THE NEXT CONGRESS.
Speaker Crisp Commcnts Upon the Pro
posed Tariff Legislation.

CHICAGO, Nov. 6.-Hon. Charles F.
Crisp, Speaker Of the House of Repre-
sentatives, arrived at the Palmer House
last night. In speaking of the repeal
fight he said:
The House will have some very i'm.
portant legislation before it at the be-
ginning OF the regular session in De-
cember. Wilson's committee will have
its tariff bill ready at an early day. The
sub committee has alresdy decided on
the rates in the schedule and the general
committee will consider them some time
next week. 1 believe Mr.. Wilson's
committee will recommend reduction
ct the tariff to revenue basis, in &C.
cordance with the declarations of tho
national committee platform.
The tax on refined sugar may be re-
duced considerably and beer and tobacco
may be increased. 1t is estimated, |
believe. that an increase of l cent on
whiskey will add $1,000, 900 to tho
revenues. The present tax on whiskey
Is 90 cents. and soy 1T Is increased to
Sl.20. that would mean an Increase of
S30, 000,00 to the revenues OF the Gov
ernment."

Many expressions of regret are heard
here over the middle OF the Bedford

The people themselves, DR.. Hall
maintained, are responsible for all the
objections which exist under the pres.

the whole power OF remedying the evils
in our government With the use of
the small. secret ballot is tho oppor-
tunity for asserting our right in the
proper administration OF the affairs Of
the State. The people, he declared,
must not remain inactive upon the com
ing election day. 1t is their obligation
to vote for what they of their ourselves
deem Is for the good of the land.
And then reading from the morning
issue of THE TINES the statement of
the associated banks OF New York he
commented upon the fact of the enor-
nous accnmuiations of money in the
