TomorroW's Election.
READY FOR HOT TIMES
The Entire Stale Militia to be
Ready For Quick
Duty At The
Polls.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 6.-The bat
tie OF the Kentucky ballots tomorrow
will be a fierce contest, in which
brains, money, muscle and perhaps
fire arms will play parts.
In this oity, thes G oebel democrat
10 election board managers say, the
Brown democratic state challengers
and inspectors will not be officially re.
cognized. Col. Bradley, the acting
chairman of the Brown democrstic
state campaign committee, says that
Brown, inspectors and challengers will
serve, just the some.
''Suppose an attempt Is made to re
move them?" he was asked.

If intimidsted the chsllengers would
have a right to Shoot
SERIOUS TROUBLE EXPECTED.
LEXINGTON. KY, Nov. 6.-The adju-
tant general evidently expects serious
trouble at tomorrow's election.
Last night, through Col. Willisms,
all the companies of the second regi-
ment were ordered to be in readiness
to move on short notice.
The entire state militia is expected
to be ready for quick duty.
MCLEAN DOOMED TO DEFEAT.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 6.-The re-
suit in Ohio is as uncertain as it has
been in the history of the state. In
this campaign Mayor Jones, of Toledo,
the non-psrtisan candidate, has de-
veloped q strength totally unexpected
by the old parties. and his election has
become possibility though hardly
probability.
State chsirmen of both of the old
parties claim certain victory. The
democrats give no figures. Colonel
Dick claims $4,000 plurality for Nash.
A consensus of unprecedented opinion
seems to be that Mclean. the demo-
cratic candidate, is doomed to certain
defeat, owing to Jones drawing from
the democratic ranks more strongly
than from the republican, and that
Nash, the republican candidate, will
defeat Jones by a small plurality.
The repu blicans are confident OF win
ming on the balance of the state ticket
and the legislature.
THE SITUATION IN BRYAN'S STATE.
OMAHA, Nov. 6.-The closing hours
of the hottest political contest Neb-
raska has gone through for years will
be. kept up until the last ballot is cast
tomorrow.
Reports are being received from
every county in the state today, by
botn fusion and republican commit
tees.
Chairman Dahlnan, of the democra-
tic state committee, says that the fus-
sionists will carry the state by 5000.
Chairman Left, Of the republican
state committee, claims the state
by 5000. The republicans
claim that the publication of
the preliminary report of the Philip
pine commission has helped them ma
terially. Bryan has vigorously attack
ed the report in his speeches.
THE OUTLOOK IN MARYLAND.
BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 6.-The hot
test political fight even known in Mary
land will end tomorrow. Leaders OF
both sides express confidence, but the
average citizen seems to have settled
down to the belief that John Walter
Smith, (democrat) will be elected gov
ernor over Lowndes, and that in to-
contest the democrats will be
successful.
ONE SIDED IN VIRGINIA.
RICHMOND, Va, Nov. 6.-The cam
paign in Virginia has been mainly one
sided and sluggish and the democratic
committee claim that they will have q
sweeping victory on Tuesday.
The only element of doubt is as to
the number of republicans and inde-
pendents who will be elected. There
will not be great many, perhaps not
more than were in the general assem-
