OHIO SAFELY REPUBLICAN.
Democrats, However, Claim That Re-
pubIicans Will Not Make
Any Gains.

CINCINNATI, o., Nov. 5-The campaign
closed here tonight, as it did elsewhere in
Ohio, with demonstrations. In this coun-
ty, which includes the First and Second
congressional districts, there has been no
speaking except by local talent, until to-
night. when Charles Emory Smith, post
master general: General Charles H. Gros-
venor, congressman from the Athens dis
trict, and others, addressed the Republic
ans at Music hall. In escorting the distin-
guished visitors to the hall the Republican
clubs gave quite a street parade. The
Democrats closed the campaign with meet
ings addressed by local, candidates. Fac
ttonal differences have caused independent
and fusion tickets here the past two years,
but this year there are straight party tick
cts only. For this reason the Republicans
will likely elect both congressman. but the
old factional lines may affect their county
ticket. The only national issue agitated
here was on sustaining the national ad-
in congress. Neither side discussed the
tariff. currency or other questions. There
are five state tickets-Republican. Demo-
cratic, Prohibition. Socialists and Reform
ers. All have full tickets here and in other
cities. bur in some counties the Socialists
and Reformers were not recognized. While
the Republicans will likely carry the state,
the Democrats claim the Republicans can
not gain any congressman. On the last
presidential vote the Republicans secured
fifteen, and the Democrats six, congress-
men in Ohio.

upon Governor Pingrees anticipated big

The Democrats have made an extremely
active campaign and they predict the cleo

or. They also claim the election of at least
half of the congressional delegation, which
now contains but two Democrats.
In the selection of members of the legis-

reforms have developed into almost as
much of an issue as party politics.

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Only two minor state
officers are to be voted for generally in
Illinois next Tuesday. Twenty-Five con-
gressmen and a legislature are, however,
to be chosen, and the interest is centered
in them. While the lower house will not
participate in the selection of a United
States senator. twenty-siX of the state sen-
ators to be selected will hold over and take
part in naming a successor to Senator Gull
lon. The Republicans claim sixteen of the
districts, giving ten to the Democrats. The
latter. on the other hand say they will
elect seventeen senators and the Republic
ans four, calling among others the five
Chicago districts doubtful. The present
congressional delegation consists of seven
teen Republicans four Democrats and one
fusonist. The Republicans assert that they
will gain one or two seats. The Democrats.
on the contrary, are confident of carrying
Chicago. and if they do their expectation
of several new congressman may be real
