CLOSE IN MINNESOTA.

ST. PAUL. November 3.-The cam
paign in Minnesota has been closely
contested by both Republican and Flu
sion committees, and both sides claim
a share in the victory for Tuesday. On
the national ticket the Democrats only
claim that the result will be close, as
sorting, however, a belief in the pos
sibility that Bryan may carry the
State by small figure.

TWO DEMONSTRATIONS.
Republicans Held Pfttsburg Till
Evening, When the Democrats
Tnnlr Charge.

Took Charge.
PITTSBURG, November 8. - After
months of apathy, amounting to almost
Indifference, both parties, Republican
and Democrats, closed the campaign
to-day and tonight with brilliancy
unprecedented.
The Republicans had possession of
the streets from early morning until
after dark, with an industrial parade,
the like of which has never been seen
here before, and the Democrats fol-
lowed in the evning with a torehlight
procession which practically displayed
the full strength of the party in this
city and Allegheny.
Many striking and unique features
were shown in both efforts, and the
dense mass of spectators lined up along
the entire route of march enthused to
marked degree. 1t was feared by the
authorities that because the two sets
Of paraders were on the streets at the
same time, the Republicans disbanding
and the Democrats forming, trouble
would result. Happily, however, the
excellent police service and the good
nature of the crowds averted any fric-
ton whatever
Many minor accidents were reported,
but nothing of a serious nature occurred.
Conservative estimates place the number
OF paraders in the Republican demonstra-
ton at fully 10000. Every industry and
business in Allegheny county was repre-
scented either by floats or marchers, and
many clubs from surrounding towns par
ticipated.
The Democratic torchlight procession
preceded mass meeting at Old City Hall
which was addressed by George A. jerks,
or Brookville. Pa; j. F.. r. Wood. of Bal
timore, and NJ. j. Ryan, of Philadelphia
The eloquence and reasoning of the speak
,ers wrought the large audience up to the
highest pitch of enthusiasm
The scene on lower Fifth avenue to-
night beggars description. The day and
night crowds seem to have become con-
gested at this section and the crowd Is
so dense that street car travel has been
suspended Every noise-making tnstru-
ment ever invented is being worked to
the limit

Ladslide Either Way Would Not Be
Surprising.
LOUISVILLE, KY, November g.
One of the most memorable political
campaigns ever known in Kentucky
came to remarkable quiet close to-
night, with both Democrats and Re-
publicans claiming TO be stronger than
ever before. The lines, however can
not be said to be drawn between Dem
ocrats and Republicans for the Goebel
assassination and the last gubernator-
ial election are issues which overshad-
oW the present gubernatorial race and
the presidential contest as well.
Beckham, the Democratic Governor,
has made most vigorous campaign
and has stumped the State from end
to end. Hon. ]. w. Yerkes; conceded
to be the strongest Republican in Ken
lucky, has done likewise and the lead
ers on both sides express the SINGER
est confidence of success on Tuesday.
On account OF the Goebel assassina-
ton there have ben SO many breaks in
the ranks on both sides that little stress
can be placed on the claims of either
and landslide one way or the other
would not be surprising to many
While the campaigns have been excit-
ing and at times unusually bitter, there
has been very little trouble and no
more than the ordinary election day
disorder is anticipated Tuesday.

That Republicans Will Have Two
Hundred Members in the Next

House.
CHICAGO, November 3.-Congress-
man Babcock, chairman of the Republi-
can Congressional committee, gave to
the Associated Press tonight the fol-
lowing statement covering the expec-
tations of the Republicans as to the
next House of Representatives:
The Congressional campaign has
reached a point where the only ques-
ton is the size of the Republican ma
jority. In my statement. given to the
press the 9th, said the Republican
membership would not be less than
1877. This number l considered at the
time was sure beyond any reasonable
doubt. Since then conditions have
continued to improve. The Croker
Jones advice to Democrats suggesting
fraud by the Republicans has done
much good. have every reason to be-
lieve that fully 200 Republicans will be
elected to the Fifty-first Congress.

THE latest bulletin of the dispersion
of American billions comes from New
port where young w. K. Vanderbilt
was arrested and fined fifteen dollars
for driving his automobile unduly fast.
To Americans who ar not million aires,
it is more or less Interesting to observe
what extraordinary happiness the pos
session of unlimited dollars can buy.
The survey of our conspicuously rich
brings before one Anna Gould with
her French count and her palaces,
Helen Gould with her thoughtful
philanthrophies, Carnegie with
his libraries everywhere. the Ogden
Goelets with their super fluffy of dia-
monds and dinners, Astor's expensive
and unsuccessful London splurges, and
young Vanderbilt and his automobile
which has been getting him into
trouble with the police of Newport
ever since his summering there began.

This survey reveals more that Is
pitiable than is enviable but there are
hundred. of others living quieter lives
and some getting the worlds best and
some the worlds worst for their
money. After all the abil :
ity to get real happiness
and profit out of life lies in the indiv
idual and his temperament rather than
in the number of HE dollars. A work
man in his cottage may have more hap
piness than a millionaire, the million
aire may have more than the work
man. The millionaire may work
harder than the day laborer, the day
laborcr may have a chronic disconten
or the millionaire may have it. 1t is a
pretty fair world after all, and a man
gets about his due in 1t.

THE steam whistle of the merry 60
round at the corner where Oregon
street crosses the Southern Pacific
tracks, is . menace to public safety and
should DO prohibited. The merry go
round managers would not suffer. as
they can find some other lees startling
way of indicating the end of each
round. The whistle is particularly
shrill and startling, and makes horses
nervous at best, but here at the rail
road crossing where engines are of ten
suorting and whifflirg, the merry GO
round whistle is often the last straw to
nervous horse. 1t is not advisable to
wait until few people are killed or
seriously hurt to stop til q nuisance.
