Last Day of Registration.
This is the last day of registration and
the expectation is that there will be a
heavy list Thus far il has not been up
to the record of recent periods. The ele-
ments have had something to do with
it although Republican apathy is part
ly responsible.
Yesterday, the third day, passed quiet

registration, and several complaints that
the policemen detailed at the polling
places were active in an extensively parti-
san character. There were no unseemly
brawls, and everywhere citizens showed
a disposition to act we'll within the law.
The registration was heavy enough to in

II have been doing some figuring on the
probable complexion of the next House, y
said a leading Republican today. My
prediction is that the Republicans will
lose twenty-five districts east of the Mis-
sissippi River. and they will gain from
ten TO fifteen west of the river. That will
give them very comfortable working ma
jority in the lower branch OF Congress.
We also figure that the Senate will be
Republican by from four to six majority
after March 4. II 1t should so happen,
Mckinley will be the only President since
Grant who had Congress with him during
the last half of term. Congress was
with Garfield and Harrison at the be-
ginning of their terms, and both branches
were Democratic at the commencement of

Afraid of Losing Their Votes.

Albany, n. Y, Oct 22.-Secretary Of
State Palmer has received several letters
from volunteer soldiers who are at their
home stations, practically out of service,
but not yet mustered out. AS they are
still in the United States service they
cannot register, and they are fearful of
losing their votes Most OF the letters
are from members of the Seventy-first
Regiment of New York. Probably the
only solution of the difficulty will be for
the men to vote under the soldiers vote
law, but the secretary will communicate
with Gen. Randolph, the United States

LITERARY.

For the story of the siege of Santa
go de Cuba, as it affected the people
directly involved, on either side, in
their personal safety and comfort and
their daily lives, there is no document
yet published equal to the October
number of McClure's Magazine. Mr..
Stephen Bonsal, in an article entitled
''The Fight for Santiago" describes
the campaign as it affected the Ameri-
can soldier, writing from his OWE OBJ
servation and experience; while for the
experiences Of the panic-stricken and
half-starved people shut up in the city
Of Santiago we have a very remarkable
diary kept by the British Consul al
Santiago, who was all the time in the
closest relations with the Spanish au-
thorities, and was expending-as it Ia
ter proved-his very life in relieving
the general suffering. Mr.. Bonsal's ar.
ticle is very fully illustrated-partly
from photographs taken in the field by
himself, and partly from drawings by
WI, Glackens, the special artist fol-
McClure's with army of invasion.

Front Saved the Day.
P. e, Butler, pack-train No. 3, writ

more or less violent form, and when we
landed we had no time to see a doctor,
for it was o case of rush and rush night
and day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and rations, but thanks to
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di-

at work and keep our health; in fact,
sincerely belive that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect savior OF
our army, for if the packers had been
unable to work there would have been
no way of getting supplies to the front.
