EMPIRE STATE OUTLOOK.
Bitter Contests Waged in Almost
Every City and County.

ALBANY, n. Y, Nov LIN every
municipality of the state a vigorous,
bitter campaign is being prosecuted
for municipal control and the blanket
ballot, instead of providing deter
rent to the Independent nomination.
has led, seemingly, to the creation of
more parties than have ever before
had a place in the elections of the
cities. In addition, a campaign for
judge of the court Of appeals has
stirred the two great parties to very
active efforts in the endeavor, not so
much to gain the place for the candi-
dates as to demonstrate, in this off
year of state politics, that the party
of one or the other is dominant. The
Democrats hope to demonstrate that
they are getting back to a normal
state and recovering from the land
slides of the past few years, and the
Republicans seek to show that such
is not the case. The assembly struggle
lends flavor to the contests, although
there are no expressions from the Dem
ocrats that would lend to the belief
that they expect to control that branch
of the Legislature, but 9only to reduce
the overwhelming majority that for
two years has given the Republicans
so much power.
The contest for the chief judgeship
of the court of appeals is very close
one, in the estimation of those who
ought to be posted The Republican
candidate, Judge Wallace. has the
prestige Of the ENORMOUS Republican
majority of the past two years, which
it would seem almost impossible to
overcome, but, on the contrary, the
Democrats claim that they will show
that their party is regaining its
strength in the state and that from
that source alone, their candidate,
Judge Parker, will poll a large vote
In addition to this, the Democratic
candidate has the advantage Of being
at the head of two columns upon the
blanket ballot and of having the sup
port of several of the great New York
city dailies that do not support the
regular municipal Democratic candi-
dates. The Republicans concede many
Of these advantages, but insist that
their party strength has not materially
failed during the past year, and that

HEAVY VOTE IN NEBRASKA.
Both Sides SupremeIy Confident ns
to the Result.

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 1.-Political
managers for botn parties in this city,
on the eve of election, express supreme
confidence as to the result of tOmOr-
rows battle, but, in the absence Of a
poll Of the state, it is a question on
what they base their claims Of vic
tory. With an admirable organization
and perfect harmony in the ranks, Re-
publicans must, nevertheless, face a
compact fusion of all elements favor
able to free silver, which a year ago
carried the state by 1000 plurality
The National Democrats and Prohlbi-
tionists are not serious factors in the
race, and tonight it is given out that
an understanding exists whereby the
National Democrats will vote almost
sOlidly for the Republican nominee.
Added to this is the fact that the last
day of the registration in the cities
brought out unexpectedly large enroll
ment, which Republicans claim is a
good augury. Fusionists deny this,
and insist that, having made a most
aggressive campaign, their followers
are most interested, and the larger the
vote the better their chances. The
blanket ballot is to be tested for the
first time tomorrow, and the effect, it
is believed, will be to greatly delay
the returns. w. J. Bryan made his
final appeal in behalf Of fusion ticket

of single man as will fall to the lot
of the first mayor of the consolidated
cities.
The new municipality will be divided
into five bOrOughs, Manhattan, Bronx,
Brooklyn, Queens, Richmond. The
first is New York city proper; the sec
end that portion Of Westchester which
is taken in, and receives it's name
from the Bronx river; the third is the
city Of Brooklyn, as it is today; the
fourth is the rest of the county of
Queens that comes into the consolida-
ton, including Long Island City, and
the fifth Is Staten Island.
Every city official holding a nom
elective Office in this immense terri
tory will be subject to the new mayor
OF course, the mayor directly appoints
comparatively small number of
these. What are known as his par
ticular appointees will be 240 odd
heads of departments and these chiefs
will fill the remainder of the places,
but it goes without saying, in a man
ner which will please the mayor. In
all this broad land of ours there is no
governor whose power approaches that
which will devolve upon the mayor Of
Greater New York.
While national issues have been
made part of the campaign, still the
money question, so far as the relative
advantages Of sixteen to one and
other bases are concerned, has been
largely held in allegiance. That is
what makes the election so peculiar in
measure. Here we see the national
committees of the great parties taking
a hand in this fight, although secretly,
and yet the central issue of the last
national contest and possibly the
future is kept as it were in hiding.
All these things make it plain that
Create New York's first municipal
campaign is remarkable in many ways.
1t is notable, not only for the char
acter of the men engaged, the four
cornered fight that is going on and
the Brobdinagian proportions of the
contest, but for the fact that for the
first time in the history of the world the
representatives of three millions Of free
men will decide for themselves how
best the one city in which they live
shall be governed.

for a second notice of the meeting of

CLOSE IN COLORADO.
Even Money rs Being offered Upon
the Result.

DENVER. Nov. 1-Although there
are but three candidates for judge of
the supreme court, the only state office
to be filled at the election tomorrow,
the ballot to be voted in this city con-
tains twenty-five different tickets, be-
ing the names Of nominees for county
offce-parties with no standing who
without formality of convention forced
their emblems upon the ballot for but
ono purpose-to confuses the voters.
Many voters-disgusted with the state
of affairs-declare they will remain
away from the polls. The contest be-
tween Hayt RepD and William H.
Gabbert Oem. and POp) for judge Of
the supreme court, appears TO be very
close. Even money is being wagered
on the result tonight. In this county
the real fight is between the silver Re
publican ticket, most of the candi-
dates upon which are also upon the
taxpayers ticket, and the Civic Fed
Grafton ticket, which was indorsed by
the Democrats. From present appear
arces some of the candidates upon
each of these tickets will be elected.

the Republican nominee On the other
hand the Republicans claim that they
have twice broken the ranks of the
Democrats in Kentucky and that the
same causes that made this possible
in the last two elections are still in
operation. They hope to carry the
state by from 5000 to 10000 plurality,
which is about the plurality claimed
by the silver Democrats Some prac-
teal politicians seem to think that the
National Democrats will make such a
showing of strength as to demonstrate
beyond a doubt that they hold the
balance of power in the state and thus
will be able to bring to terms the regu-
lar Democratic organization.

sHATTUCK RETRIEVEs.
Defeats the Carleton Eleven by n
Score OF 10 to 6.

Special to the Globe.
FARIBAULT, Mimi, Nov. This after
noon the return game of football between
the Carleton college and Shattuck school
elevens was played on the Shattuck campus.
The rooters for both schools were out In full
force as were the young lady students from
Carleton. Game was called at o'clock with
the kickoff for Carleton. Shattuck went to
work with a determination to win, and, after
some quick gains, Van Hagen made touch
down for Shattuck in two minutes and eigh-
teen seconds. Sawin, however, failed to kick
the goal In the next kickoff short gains
We're made by Shattucl1, but they finally lost
the ball on downs. After a good deal of
see-saw Robertson, after some hard work,
made the first touchdown for Carleton, from
which Il goal was kicked. The playing was
continued for the balance Of the half, which
ended with the ball in the Carleton grounds,
score to in favor Of Carleton. After the
usual intermission play was resumed with
the kickoff for Shattuck. The Shads seemed
to take a fresh brace and went at Carleton
In way that meant business, and soon made
q touch down from which Sawin kicked goal;
score 10 to in favor OF Shattuck, which
was the last score made in the game. The
Shads had the ball within the Carleton ten
yard line at the call of time. This was the
best game ever played on the ShattuCk
grounds or by the Shattuck eleven The
Carletons were at least one-third heavier
than the Shattucks, but were clearly out
played in every point: The playing Of Van
Hagen, Babcock, Newhall. Mccullough, Har
Tis and Sawn was the best for Shattuck,
while that Of Stark, Goodhue and Robertson
took the honOrs for Carleton. The referee
and umpire were II. A. Scandrett, Of the state
university, and John Dobbin. The lineup Of
the teams was as follows:
