BY the Associated Press.
CINcINNATI, Nov. 5.-Tuesday thoelec-
tors OF Ohio will choose full state
ticket and members of the senate and
house of representatives Tho Repnb
licans renominated Governor Mckinley
and Lieutenant-Go Governor Harris, and
the Democratic nominee for governor is
Lawrence 7. Neal and for Lieutenant
governor W. A. Taylor. Governor Nc.
Kinley's connection with the present
tariff law, and Neal being the author OF
tne tariff plank of the last Democratic
platform, the campaign has been almost
one OF national Issues. The Democrats
do not concede the state, but they are
by no means go confident of carrying it
as are the Republicans. There is sort
OF an understanding that the Republic
ans expect at least $4,000 plurality for
Mckinley. the Prohibition party and
Populists each have state tickets in the
field.
A PERSONAL ISSUE IN NEW YORK.,
New YORK, Nov. 5.-rhe whole issue
OF the campaign in this state which cul-
inmates Tuesday seems to have been in
the nomination of Isaac s. Maynard for
associate Judge for the court OF appeals,
by the Democracy. The opposition to
Judge Maynard has been of such a ma
ture that ali else was lost sight Of. In
1891 several legislative seats werescon-
tested and the returns from the Fif-
teenth congressional district were re-
ceived at the Office of the secretary of
state by order of the supreme court. It
is claimed by his opponents that Judge
Maynard, in his official capacity, un-
lawfully removed from tie Office OF the
secretary of state the electson return.
1t is charged that the motive for this
was to prevent the counting Of the re-
turns by the board OF state canvaeaers
until new return could be made out
and forwarded. The result of the con.
test in the courts practically sustained
Maynard and gave the Demo- ocrhtic party
majority OF cne in the state senate,
giving them also complete control oil
every department. of the state govern
ment. MANY predict that Mayna I'd
will be defeated. Ssnguine Republicans
claim sweeping victory for the VIII lie
ticket. The Democrats seem to have
little fear of the loss of the legislature,
and while the Republicans may az ain
secure control of the senate, the more
conservative of both parties believe the
Democrats will have majorityson joint
ballot.
COMPLICATIONS IN IOWA.
DEs MONIES, Ia, Nov. 5.-Many COM
plications on account OF the Prohibition
and Populist parties here make fore.
cast of the probable result of Tuesdays
battle in this state more or less uncer-
tain. A full state ticket is to be elect
ed, together with members OF the lower
house of the general assembly and
majority OF the members OF the upper
house. At Republican headquarters to-
night they claim plurality Tor Jackson
for governor of 1860, with q little Of the
rest of the state ticket and safe majori-
ties in both houses of the legislature.
Chairman Fuller believes Governor
Boies will be re elected by about the
came plurality as two years ago. At
Populist headquarters they are very
certain Joseph, their candidate for gov
ernor, will poll 10000 votes. They
claim they may even hold the balsn ce
of power in the legislature, in which
case General Weaver would become q
btIIhbOIIhl idCtOf. AT L. n0n0~
quarters they claim $4,000 at least tor
Bennett Mitchell.
HOT FIGHT IN CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-lnterest in the COM
ing election in Chicago and Cook county
is intense. The officials to be elected
are county commissioners and judges OF
the supreme and circuit courts. The
principal fight 10 between the friends
and enemies OF Judge Joseph Il.
Gary, candidate for reelection to
the superior bench. Judge Gary pre-
sided in the famous anarchist triad.
Governor Altgeld, who ia generally al
legged to be personal enemy OF Gary's,
recently pardoned three of the men con-
yicted at the trial, and moreover haa
bent every effort to secure the defeat ek
Gary. The judge is supported by an
overwhelming majority OF the members
of the bar and by every paper in Chi
cago, with one exception. 6ary's fight

has been aroused. There is no partiasaA
lar fight between the candidates for any
of the other positions.
