A REMARKABLE CONTEST.

Cleveland, Ohio, April 2.-The mum
icipal campaign which closed last n1gnt
is the most remarkable ever conducted
in Cleveland. The candidates for
Mayor are Robert E. McKisson, Repub-
lican, who seeks reelection for, third
term. and John H. Farley, Democrat,
former Mayor and director OF public
works. McKisson and Farley were the
opposing candidates two years ago,
when the former won by about 2,5OO
plurality. At that time Farley mad
the opposition of large number OF
Silver Democrats, who refused to sup
mort him because he had failed to give
active support to Bryan in the presl-
Dental campaign. Then there was no
omen opposition to McKisson in his
owl party. Now the Democratic party
is practically united for Farley and
McKisson has the open and avowed OPP
position, not only of large part OF
the Republicans, who accuse him OF
treachery to his party IN attempting
to prevent NJ. A. Hannas election to
the senate last winter, but OF the mum
icipal association, composed OF 5O0 re-
preventative citizens, which charges
that he has administered the city gov
eminent in the interest OF personal
political machine. Farley has pledged
himself to good government and to
serve but single term if elected. Nc
Kisson stands on his record as Mayor
and has pledged himself to municipal
ownership and warfare on the corpor-
atoms His friends say he will be
supported by workingmen regardless OF
party. The registration is heavier
than in the year following the presi-
Dental election and the vote promises
to be the heaviest ever cast here. The
election occurs on Monday.
The bitterness of the mayorality con-
test between the followers of Hon.
John H Farley. Democrat, and Mayor
R. E. McKisson, Republican, is grow
ing more intense and will not end with
the counting of the votes tomorrow
night.
At an early hour yesterday morning,
John Coles, who is registered as a
voter, was arrested on the charge Of
registering falsely. 1t is charged that
he is a ''foa.er," and has no legal resi-
dence in Cleveland.
Frank Liebling, an insurance adj
juster, living at No. IL Cultivate
street, was arrested on the charge of
obtaining money from c. ]. Klal, a
street car conductor, by false pretences.
Klal, in his af1davit, swears that he

MANY WARRANTS ISSUED.

Toledo, O., April 2.-The most re-
markable political campaign in the his
tory of Toledo closed last night, with
demonstrations in almost every ward
by the three factions contending for
the election of Mayor on Monday. The
regular Republicans, with Charles b.
Russell as the Mayoralty candidate, to-
day announced through the chairman,
Congressman J. H. Southland, that they
would win the fight by at least two
thousand plurality, while Lem P. Har-
ris, the manager of Mayor S. M. Jones,
confidently expects to carry the city by
at least as large plurality. Captain
P. H. Bowling, the regular Democratic
candidate, while not giving any figures,
has assured his party that he has
enough votes to win.
The independent movement, or the
Jones faction of the Republican party
has made the most aggressive fight, the
candidate making his fight on the plat
form of socialism and municipal own
ership, and he has secured endorse
ments from nearly every labor union
in the city. A number of prominent
socialists, including Herbert N. Casson,
together with Governor Pingree, of
Michigan, have been prominent in the
Jones campaign, and many great in
dustrial meetings have been held since
the defeat of Mayor Jones for the reg
ular Republican nomination. The cam
paign of both the Democratic and Re-
publican leaders has been directed
against Mayor Jones, who has claimed
during the entire fight to be member
of the Republican party, but is stand
ing for reelection on advanced
grounds of socialism.
Yesterday, at the instance CT the man
ayers of both Democratic and Repub-
lican committees, 240 warrants were is
sued for voters on the grounds of lille
gal registration The voters, it IS
claimed, are Jones supporters. The
election on Monday promises to be
most exciting one, and the result is
very doubtful.

FULFILLING OUR DESTINY"

Chicago Chronicle
British patience has at last been re-
warded. On the bloody field of battle
American and British blood has been
shed in a common cause. The dream
that has brought restful slumber to
British statesmen for generations past
has finally been fulfilled. Our cousins
across the Atlantic have inVeigled your
Uncle Samuel in the cause of spreading
civilization and British influence in an
other part of this benighted globe and
now they are happy. The elimination
of their fondest hopes is at hand and
our kin of the British isles are exult-
ing. On the horizon of time they see a
gaunt, lanky figure looming, the prun-
ing hook once in his hand exchanged
for sword. Death turks in the eyes
from which but kindness and benevo-
lence have beamed; the hands that
have raised the fallen and succored the
weak now tremble to clutch the plum
der, and the bosom to which the perse-
cuted and oppressed have been welcom-
ed now heaves with suppressed rage.
Presto, change. In real earnest we are
assuming the white mans burden,
which is the extirpation of people
your Uncle Samuel befit his patron.
Truly, we are becoming one in thought
and action with the nation with whom
we have been kin in language. Smelling
villages in Samoa and burning towns in
the Philippines and numbering the ma
tives in both is a movement calculated
to win the admiration of our fellow
civilizers" as nothing else would. And
these poor, benighted heather, upon
whom We are compelled to waste pow
der and shot in an effort to bring them
to proper understanding of the bene-
fits Of Anglo-Saxon civilization, will
thank us for our disinterested interest
in their welfare at the proper time.
When our admirals and commanders
operating in and around these islands
capture Aguinaldo and Mataafa instruc-
tons should be sent to them that the
rebels be tied to the lannon's mouth
and blown to smithereens. That is the
British way of ending instructions, !"
but Uncle Sam will, no doubt, succeed
in persuading Downing street to accord
this government letters patent on the
process for this continent.

Special to the Register.

Special to the Register
Charleston, ". Va, April 1.-The Su-
preme Court handed down a number OF
cases to-day, the most important Of
which was the one involving the duty
of State officials. 1t was an applica-
ton by J. Miller, State printer, for
writ of mandamus TO compel the Stale
Board of Agriculture to lave its print
ing done by the State printer. The writ
was refused, the opinion being handed
down by Judge Brannon. Following is
the syllabus: 1, mere private contract
will not be enforced by mandamus; 2,
as the State cannot be sued, mandamus
or other judicial process will not lie
against State officers or boards, to COM
pei them to execute an existing contract
between an individual and the State.
Though the State is not in name par
ty, such suit is against it, within the
meaning of the provision of the prohl-
bition suit against the State.

Chicago, April 2.-The municipal
campaign was practically closed last
night. both parties holding large meet
ings in all parts of the city. Both the
Democrats and Republicans claim to be
confident of the outcome, but, at the
same time, the practical men in both
parties admit that it is exceedingly diff
ficult to forecast correctly the result OF
the vote on Tuesday. The unknown
quantity in the campaign is the vote
to be polled by the Independent Demo-
cratic candidate, Ex-Governor Altgeld.
The Republicans admit that heavy
vote for Altgeld is their main chance
for election by splitting the Democratic
vote.
The Democrats claim that Mayor
Harrison is certain of reelection and
that he will receive 10000 votes; Car
ter, the Republican, 10000, and they al
low but 10000 to Altgeld.
The Republican managers claim for
Carter $4,000 votes. give Harrison no.
GOO, and allow Altgeld total Of $4,000.
The election commissioners estimate a
total vote of $4,000. The Republicans
claim that Altgeld will gain enough
votes from Harrison to give Carter a
clear plurality. In the opinion CT most
men not directly inte.es ed in the actual
work of the campaign, Harrison will be
elected, although the size of the Altgeld
vote is admitted to be conundrum.
