In Boone county there is no change
OF sentiment among the voters from
what 10 was ia 1S02. There are no
kicking Democrats. Only a few Demo-
cratic speeches have been made in the
county, but the few Democratic meet
ings held ia the county have been
large aud there is considerable enthu-
siasm among the Democrats OF the
county. The Democratic majority Ia
Boone can be safely put at 200

the Democrats are far ahead OF their
opponents 10 Fayette. IJ is safe 70 say
the Republican majority in Fayette will
be cut down 70 almost nothing, with
strong probabilities Of the election Of at
least one Of the Democratic candidates
for the House OF Delegates.
There will be practically no change
in the vote OF Greenb-ier from what IL
has been heretofore 10 was feared 10
the beginning Of the campaign that the
Democrats Of Greeubrier would take
but little interest iu this election, and
there would be a few who would not
take the trouble 20 go TO the polls, but
within the last week the Democrats OF
that county have been considerably
aroused, and the probabilities are that
every Democrat in GrsenOrier will be
90 the polls on election day, and that
she Democratic majority 10 that county
will be about as usual
Kauawha county is gradually slipping
out Of she hands of the Republican
party, and there are indications that IL
will take long stride toward Democ-
racy at the coming election. The
Democrats have decided ad-
vantage Go the character OF the
local candidates, and 10 is more than
probable that they will be able 20 elect
al least TWO OF their candidates for the
Legislature, and one member OF the
County Court Republicans have been
making extrayagant claims of gains To
this county, on account of the diSat-
lection Of Democrats, but 10 is observed
that the Democrats whom they have
counted upon 20 lead a bolt from the
party, are not only going % vote the
straight Democratic ticket, but are now
earnestly working To- the interest OF
Mr.. Anderson and the other candidates.
While the result To kauawha cannot be
predicted with any degree Of
certainty, vet no one would
be surprised TO see the Re
publican majority entirely wiped out as
it was 10 1890, when all the Democratic
candidates were elected with but one
exception. That the Democrats Of Ka-
nswha are thoroughly aroused was
proven by the grand reception they &C
corded Ex-GOy. f. w. Wilson and EX-
Congressman Ben Wilson Thursday

son did not exceed 800 people. There
never was IN this county such en-
thusiasm among the voters as there was
among those who attended the Demo-
cratic meeting at The court house
Thursday night. The speakers dealt
the Republican party crushing blows,
and every point made by them was
cheered and aDDlauded 20 ths echo.
