the State generally is most encouraging 10
the Republicans. The State ticket seems
certain of election and every day brghtens
the prospects for an enormous majority.
bon. N. NJ. Estee's meetings have been
largely attended and much more enthusi-
astc gatherings than those addressed by
his chief opponent, James Fl. Budd The
Democratic newspapers have been pub
fishing accounts of the outpourings of the
Democrats wherever Mr.. Budd has ap-
peared that were manifestly exaggerated.
A systematic effort has been made TO create
the impression that the buck board states
man was raising furore. he has been
credited with audiences larger than tie
population in which he spoke, and in one
Instance his hearers were more numerous
than the entire population of the county.
Mr.. Estee's meetings have been uni
formly successful, and what is more i'm
portant. the sentiment of the people
among whom he has been moving is en-
phaticaly Republican. The news received
at the ro0ms of the State Central Commit

manifested in the contest by the commit

guarded by the former and eagerly sought

placed in nomination before the commit
tee, and while all the candidates were men
of undoubted ability the greatest care was
taken in the final selection.
The reports of the various sub-commit-
tees revealed the fact that the outlook
was growing more cheerful as the day of
election drew near. Clubs were being
formed throughout the city and a plan

Registration is going forward at the new
City Hall with wild rush. The end Is
almost al hand and there little more time
for getting the suffers on the roll. Mon
day evening next Registrar Evans will
close down the works and order final
clean up.

Colonel Burns brOther-in-law, Mr. Evans,
so persistently demanded and finally got

rapidity that the unkempt individuals
who present themselves to be registered
from the Palace Hotel go away in dazed
condition, half disposed to think that they
haven't had their moneys worth.
According to the lists the hotels are do

won de1ful lot of customers. According to
this same authority the Baldwin Hotel
must be delightful place of residence
just now. But the lists are doubted.
Democrats say that the army of long
haired, bedraggled men who register in
the names OF first citizens as residing at
the Baldwin are not actually these first
citizens, and do not dine at the Bald win
table nor sleep in Baldwin beds. 1t is
even asserted that they do not dine any

but of one thing the Democrats feel very

Grover ClevelaDd's ay0irdupois that they
are Republican suffers.
The Republicans say that they are Demo-
Gratis, who, acting under the advice of ex-
Chairman Max Pepper. failed TO register
during the earlier stages of tie game.
Registrar Evans wouldn't stuff the rolls for
his brother-in-law. the boss, and Colonel
Burns wouldn'l permit it to be done. He
