STATE ELECTIONS NEXT
WEEK.

Thirteen States will hold elections
next Tuesday. These States arc Ken
tucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mis-
souri,. Nebraska, New York, New
Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South
Dakota, Wisconsin, Virginia and
Iowa.
Governor Boies was elected two
years ago in Iowa by plurality of
8,216, but Inst year the Republican
electoral ticket carried the State by a
plurality of 22,695. Prohibition and
other local issues mike the result
doubtful this year. The legislature
to be elected will choose Senator
Wilson's successor, and the new mr.
rangement of the districts will prob
ably give the Democrats the advan
tage.
Kentucky will elect Democratic
Legislature that will choose Senator
Lindsay's successor.
Massachusetts will elect n full State
ticket and legislature: Despite. Re.
publican defeats in past years they
count OH victory this time, but they
may again be disappointed.
Missouri will elect several State
officers-all Democrats.
Nebraska will elect member of
the supreme bench and three regents
of the State university. The Demo
Gratis and Populists are fighting ench
other and the Republicans stand the
best chance.
The New York Democracy is ex.
pected to elect it's whole ticket.
OHIO will elect governor. State
officers and legislature. Predio
tions favor Mckinley, as the Repub.
licnns have made the most vigorous
campaign.
Virginia will come out all right
with O'Ferrall and Democratic leg
islnture
New Jersey will elect several State
senators and full house.
South Dakota and PENNSYLVANIA
will elect few State officers-proba.
bly, Republicans.
Wisconsin will elect full State
ticket and legislature. The Demo
Gratis are trying hard to retain their
hold on this State, but the Republi
cans are making n strong fight.
Local issues predominant in most
of these States and no undue naIion
al Importance should be attached to
the results.
