TIE COMING ELECTIONS
Many Contests Of Importance

Chicago, Oct. 2S.-Altho this year is
an oft year." many elections of more
than ordinary interest are to be held
next week. In most cases the issues
are. purely local, but sufficient of ma
tional Importance attaches to several
contests to attract general attention.
In the majority of the state and city
campaigns little has been said of ma
tional issues, but the contests are being
fought on problems of local interest.
tons are forming up for next year. and
party lines are drawn closely.
Foremost among the elections this
year, that for mayor of New York nat
urally takes front rank. While the
fusion forces talk confidently of the
outlook for the election of Seth Low
the opposition is still more certain
that Edward NJ. Shepard, the Tammany
nominee, is to be the victor Those
who wager money on such contests
prefer the democratic ticket, but the
Low forces are making wonderful
fight and may spring a surprise when
the votes are counted. Other cities of
the first, second and third class thru
out New York state will elect mayors
and local officers.
In Maryland Arthur Pue Germans
senatorial aspirations form the main
issue and the result is in doubt owing to
uncertainty regarding the workings OF
the new law fixing an educational test
for voters.
Ohio republicans claim assurances of
victory. but the democrats are con-
ceding nothing in that state.
The anti-Quay element in its tte-up
with the democrats makes the outlook
in PENNSYLVANIA uncertain, altho the
republican organization will not admit
the possibility of defeat.
Doubt is expressed as to the outcome
in Virginia, and the republicans are
more than hopeful that they will secure
control of the state administration.
Estimates by the two parties in New
Jersey are far apart, both claiming the
goyernorship, with the chances ap-
pearing to favor the republicans.
Massachusetts republicans have made
no campaign, but are not in doubt re-
garding the result.
In Iowa the only question is the size
Of the majority Cummins will receive.
Little interest attaches to the Me-
braska election, altho both republicans
and fusionists talk with confidence.
The one important office, that Of supreme
court justice-is now held by q repub-
.lican, the only one on the bench. and
whichever side wins it will not change
the political complexion of the court.

City ELECTION in New York.

Albany, N. Y, Oct. 2s.-Whatever in
tensity there has been In the political
campaign in the state of New York this
wear has been limited to the cities. since
there has been no state contest, there
being no state officers to elect.
1t was the design of the trainers of
the constitution of 1894 by separating
CITY from state elections thus to concen-
trate the attention of city voters upon
city affairs in the odd-numbered years.
and the scheme. 1t may be said, has been
most successful this year, for in twenty
enc of the cities Of the state voters have
been debating solely the merits and de-
merits of their several city administra-
tons. Thus there has been complete
and ruthless review Of the acts of the
administrations which are about to de-
part official life.
The cities in which mayors will be
elected on Nov. are: OF the flrst-clasS
New York and Buffalo; OF the second
class Albany, Troy, Syracuse and Ro-
chester; of the third-class, Amsterdam
Binghamton, Dunkirk. Geneva. Glovers-
vile, Johnstown, Kingston, Little Falls,
New Rochelle, Oswego, Rensselaer,.
schenectady, Utica, WATERFOWL and
Yonkers.
Voters of the state will. !! is true, have
one affair of state Importance submitted
to them for consideration-namely:
proposed amendment to section Is of ar
.t.cle of the constitution. prohibiting
the passage by the legislature OF special
bills exempting property from taxation.
This suggested amendment to the con-
stitution hae not been made a subject Of
political controversy. 1t passed the leg
.islature unanimously.

Reno, New, Oct 2S.-United States
Senator John P. Jones, of Nevada, has
made the announcement to his friends
that the evolution of political issues
placed him again in alignment with the
republican party.
II have suffered no change in any of

past" said the senator, and my re-
turn to the republican party does vio-

of bimetalism today as when left the
republican party solely for that cause.

hirnetalism would have accomplished.
The silver issue is dead, and we are face

parties today the republican party is the
only one which is in touch with the
economic progress Of the twentieth CEN

Asked whether he would be candi-
date for reelection. Senator Jones said:
Nothing would delight me more than
that some strong republican whom we
can elect should come out as a candi-
date for the senate. and / will support
him with all my heart"
Senator Jones departed last night for
Washington, where he will attend the
wedding of General Corbin and Miss
Edith Patton and give away the bride,
