NASH CONFIDENT OF OHIO.
REPUBLICAN, PLURALITY OF AT
LEAST $4,000 EIPECTED.

Tho Republicans Also Expect TO Garry

McLesn-Fake Reports OF Joness With
drawsl from Race-Democratic Discord.
COLUMBUS. Ohio. Nov 8.-The finish OF what
has been the most remarkable campaign In
Ohio politics has been very tame. Judge
George X. Nash. the Republican candidate for
Governor. spent the greater part OF the day at
the state headquarters. and after Col. Dick had
received reports from all but three OF the eighty
eight counties OF the State. Judge Nash said
that he would be greatly disappointed II his
plurality did not exceed 10000. Col. Dick says
that there 10 nothing in the situation to cause
him to change his estimate OF 10000 plurality
for the Republican state ticket and Republican
control OF the Legislature in both branches.
Since II has become apparent that 1t 10 part
OF McLean's game to sacrifice every one TO
save himself the wires have been kept hot with
protests from various counties. The Chair
man Of tho Democratic Committeein Delaware
county resigned In disgust on Saturday because
OF instructions sent there along this line. and
a similar state Of affairs exists In Sctoto
county so that the Democrats find themselves
badly dsorcanized in many counties on the
eve OF election. One queer development OF the
day Is the fact that prisoners confined In the
Ohio Psnitsntiary have been allowed TO write

1t is not believed that this appeal In

Mr.. Mclean Is in Cincinnati, where he will re-
