LOYAL TO THE OHIO TICKET
Independ,n ,nt Republican Movement is Merely
Local in Scope.
JONES A UNIQUE FEATURE OF CAMPAIGN
Mayor of Toledo VIII Command the
Adherence OF Certain Classes-
German Vote In Enrolled
for Nash.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 3O-A correspondent of
the Globe Democrat at Cincinnati writes
"As goes Hamilton county, so gees the
state" the Ohio politicians used to say
They are straining themselves in Cincinnati
this year as IL they thought the rule still
held good Cincinnati Is the largest part
OF Hamilton county. The registration books
were closed at 0 o'clock Saturday night.
Complete returns are lacking, but those re-
ceived indicate an unusually heavy poll for
an off year. ..'s-.
1t is difficult to remember campaign
in the past twenty-five years when there
was not some kind of an independent move
ment being conducted with considerable
vigor in Hamilton county or the city Of Gin
cinnati. The result OF this kind Of political
education has been to break loose from party
moorings considerable number of voters.
The chief interest that people outside Of
Ohio have in the independent republican
movement in Hamilton county is the prob
able influence it may exrcise in the state
ticket, The democratic and the independent
republican conventions met on the same
day. Joint committees divided the nom
nations for county and legislative offices.
1t must be admitted that the demo-
Gratis were liberal. Fusion has since re-
ceived all OF the assistance from that party
that could be- givea lt.S The joint ticket
will appear under the democratic state
ticket. How many independent republican
votes will this local fusion mean for John
r. Mclean? That is the question which,
with the close OF registration becomes vital
in any estimate OF the probabilities. Nc
Leans managers in Cincinnati profess to
believe that most of the Independent re-
publicans will vote the democratic state
ticket with the local fusion nominations
Upon that confidence they base the claim
that Mclean is going to carry Hamilton
county.
State Ticket is Snfe.
The chairman of the independent repub-
lican- campaign. committee is Charles ],
Stephens, a conservative business man. He
does not think that many independent re-
publicans will vote the democratic state
ticket.
"our movement" he said today, docs
not extend beyond the county and legis-
latve,tickets.- 1t is purely local, Our or
ganization is supporting the republican
state ticket and our votes will generally be
cast for that ticket" .-.
Mr. Stephens was asked about the demo-
cratic claim that the presence OF the fusion
ticket under the democratic state ticket
would ensure republican votes for the lat
ter. His reply was that, while the Aus
tralan ballot was cumbersome affair. tht
independent voters of Cincinnati knew how
to discriminate. He did not believe tha
the local independent republican movement
would affect materially the vote on the state
ticket. ..s- t,.
Precedents bear out Mr. Stephens theory
Only two years ago fusion of Independent
republicans and democratic voters carried

of the proprietors, and one customer, the
only occupants of the room. we're ordered
to hold up their hands Russell said all
right but with quick spring from his chair
grappled with the man who had him covered
and there was fierce struggle for minute.
Russell was hit twice over the head by the
bandit with the gun, being knocked down
by the first blow. Bandit No. was cover
ing the single customer during this time. but
by dextrous dodge the latter reached the
door and gave the alarm on the street. The
robbers became frightened and backed out.
One Of them going behind the bar grabbed
some loose money before going. Both men
made their escape. They got about IS in
money. The fire bell was rung and the whole
city turned out to look for the bandits. The
police organized posses and started them
UP the different gulches and 1t Is believed

In the scuffle that Russell had with his
man he pulled off the cloth mask and Rus

of the posses, shot himself in the right ankle
with revolver while dsmounting from the

| The men are not believed to be profess
