CARRY THE STATE.

California has ever stirred up greater interest
than that which will be decided tomorrow. IN

II In popular feeling the election by which the
new Constitution was adopted. From all the re-
turns 1t seems safe to say that the RepuDIicahs
will carry the State by from 5000 to 1900 majority
but II they come out In San Francisco they
will do we'll 1t may be that the Democrats VIII
carry this city by from 1000 to 3,O0 These hsures
do not tally with those given out at the headquar-
ters of the two main parties. The secretary oi
the Republican State Central Committee hgures
out that Mckinley will carry California by loW
majority and that seven Republican congressman
will be elected. The secretary Of the Democrauc
Committee predicts that California Will give 8ryan
from 5000 to 5000 majority, will return nine bIya
electors and will elect a Democratic LeglSature,
that the next United States Senator VIII De
Democrat. Between these two estimates the sale
ground lies. The contest Is sure to be close unless
all signs fail. With the enormous Populist vote
OF 81 01, pOled at the last election II Is idle 10
talk OF any large Republican majority because

publican3 but they do not indicate any landGlide
