These general state ele tions occur in
Ohio every two years and the pfesiden-
tal election comes III one of the alternate
years, so that there is only one year out
of four known as the off year when there
are only few minor state officers to be
elected. In 1892 Ohio gave Republican
plurality of only 1000, electins one Demo-
cratic pres idential elector out of twenty
three. In 1893 Mckinley had over So 900
plurality for governor. and last year the
Republican plurality on the state ticket
was 1877, 900, so that the Democratic man
ayers claim they will be able to show
state, even if they do not carry their
state ticket, or elect majority OF the
mem bers of the legislature at this time.

this state has been contested with the
bitterness and acrimony which has char
acterised the piesent fight, which is look
ed upon as the most crucial OF the many
contests in which Maryland Democratic
leader, United States Senator Arthur p.
German, has been engaged. 1t is uni.
versallv believed that his political future
depends upon the result, and he IS TAX
lug a personal part in the campaign to
far greater extent than he has been
known to do for many years. There are
no state isues Of consequence, aud ma
tional isues seem to have been lost sight
of by both the parties. Party lines are
ignored by many for the time being, and
being either for or against Mr.. German.
The ground upon which many justify
their expressed intention to bolt the
Democratic nomination IS that they were
dictated TO by Senator German and his
lieutenant /. Freeman Rasin, the
Democratic leader OF this city, and that
the candidates are not the actual choice
of the people. The roters include many
who have heretofore been prominent in
the ranks of the Democracy, headed by
the Sun of this city, which has always
been noted for lis steadfastness to Demo.
cratic principles. Senator Gorman's well.
known antagonism for the Cleveland adj
ministration is being used against the
Democratic ticket, while upon the other
hand the Democrats insist that this is
but pretext, and assert that the Repub-
lIcans are merely using I in order to
carry the state for its effect upon national
elections. A legislature is to be elected
which will choose successor to United
States Senator Charles d. Gibson. The

VIRGINIA.
RICHMOND, Nov. 3.-Virginia this
year elects only one-half of the state SEN
ate and the entire house of delegates.
The legislature will elect an auditor of
public accounts. a second auditor. secre-
tary OF commonwealth, state treasurer,
superintendent of public printing and
register of land office. The only issue of
any Importance involved Is The matter Of
a new election law and the repeal of the
present Walton law.
The party lines are not closely drawn
upon the election law in use. Many DEM
ocarts favor repeal of The Walton bill
and the Republicans and Populists are
working together to secure IA measure
more favorable to them. The Walton bill
practically gives the Democrats entire
control of the election machinery. Those
who desire its repeal or amendment claim
that the minority should nave representa-
ton.
