says; i feel the deepest solicitude for the
election of Judge Nash. 1t will mean vic
tory for sound money and prosperity.
II is also well known that MIR. Sherman
has not cordial feeling for President Nc
ils hinley ana Senator Hanna. and that he
openly antagonizes the presidents Philip
pine policy. Hence the Democratic papers
have been publishing interviews and dis
patches from ex-senator Sherman indicat-
ing his position in that regard. One of the
latter. addressed TO the editor of an Ohio
democratic paper. contains the following:
nexation Of the Philippine islands. a seiz-
ure OF any part of the Philippines against
their will Is aggression in violation of the
law of nations.
1t is claimed by Republicans that the
alienation of Republicans who disagree
with the administration on the Philippines
question will be more than offset by the
Democrats who believe in upholding the
government and who oppose the silver oil
icy to which the Democrats are pledged.
Inc following is an estimate of what
the vote in Ohio will Ee from an eminent
Democratic source:
The total vote in Ohio will be about &C.,
600 The increased registration is deceptive
because of the fact that II Is over that
of 1885, an off year. The estimate of Jones
vote according to polls is about 1880. OF
the balance Nash will get 10000 and Nc
Lean 42a.G0. The Jones vote will be two
thirds Republican and will be heaviest in
Cuyakoga. Lucas. Ashtabula, Warren and
Montgomery counties. all of which are
Republican. The increase over the vote
of 1897 will be due in a measure to the
first votes and to the fact that decennial
real estate appraisers are to be elected this
year.

his former law partner, Henry c. Hedges.
eX-Secretary Sherman expresses the live
lieSt interest in the success of the Repub-

is not in robust health, he desires to
avoid the fatigue of trip to this city to
cast his vote. but is SO anxious that he
shall not lose his vote that he requests
Mr.. Hedges to secure u pair for him. and
this Mir. Hedges has done, a Democrat in
Mr.. Sherman's precinct having paired with
him This action OF Mr.. Sherman effect
ually sets at rest the attempt made in
pear that the eX-secretary is Indifferent
concerning the Republican cause this year.
