IN OHIO
Democrats Oppose the Republican
''Let Well Enough Alone"


Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 4.-The apathy
that has prevailed during the present cam
palgn in Ohio continues up to the eve
OF the election. While the republicans
are confident of winning, they fear that
the small vote may greatly reduce the
pluralities that they expected on the state
ticket and probably make the result in
the legislature close on Joint ballot for
senator. The democrats are depending
upon the traditional results of "off years"
in Ohio, and on their opponents being the
greater sufferers from the shortage in the
vote. They say the republicans are hav-
ing troubles in all of the larger cities on
which they depend for. their pluralities,
that the rural districts are democratic
and not disturbed by local difficulties as
are the cities and that the accidents are
all their way.
Local affairs enter into the election to-
morrow more than usually. The discus
sions have not been on the usual lines Of
specific issues. The republicans accepted
Senator Hanna's appeal to 'let we'll
enough alone,' and the democrats replied:
Let US do better"
In his last appeal to voters to-day Chair
man Dick of the republican state commit
tee repeated the keynote of standing by
the principles of Mckinley and supporting
President Roosevelt in carrying out the
same. Chairman Dick predicted a larger
plurality for the republicans than two
years ago and a majority of eleven SEN
atOrs and thirty representatives or forty
one on joint ballot if a full vote is cast.
Secretary Gillian and Colonel w. A. Tay-
lor estimate the reverse and Taylor gives
figures on a peculiar system Of percentages
in the shortage Of the vote.

Haskell Braves Go Against StaIwart
North Star Football Artists ona
Field Covered With Snow.
Fans Divide Time Between Blowing
Fingers and Roofing Lavender
Lines Contrast With Snow.

Football was played at the university
and field as hard as iron. The players
got away from the hard field by simply
taking their pigskin and going out ON the
campus where there was green grass to
fall upon. The cold winds could be es-
capped only by fast play. That was all we'll
enough for the players, but it would not
do for the rooters and others who watch
the sport with less noise. However, there
was fair crowd out to see the gophers
and the Indians from Kansas contend for
honors.
King Present Again.
Among the crowd along the side lines
was Phil King, coach of the Wisconsin
team, Captain Curtis, of the same team
and his left guard, Lerun, and right half
back, Larson. The presence of Mr.. King
and others of the Wisconsin team at SO
many of the Minneapolis games indicates
that the little coach is worried over the
outlook. 1t is not known what his man
agement will do with regard to Schneider,
whose eligibility has been questioned on
the ground that he played baseball with a
team cOntending for a purse at Mineral
Point Wis, last summer. Professor
Schlichter of the University Of Wisconsin
intimated that Wisconsin would take no
steps to bar Schneider until formal pro-
test had been received from some source.
He said further that any school intending
to protest Schneider should not wait until
the last moment; Wisconsin would not re-
gard that as quite fair.
The crowd gathered ON the campus
rather slowly this afternoon. No an
nouncement having been made OF the place
at which the same would be held, nearly
all of those who came early went first to
the Northrop field, where they were in
formed that the game woul9 be played in

Two Statements Analyzed.

The Tribune very kindly advertised
The Journals circulation yesterday to-
gether with it's own, and the showing
made by The Journal would certainly
seem to rank the value Of The Journals
circulation as NO i, when it is borne in
mind that The Journal is a 2-cent paper
while the price of The Tribune is only
one cent It should be borne In mind
also that almost the entire circulation
of The Journal is made up of It's 3 o'clock
edition, and delivered directly to the
homes of the people, while The Tribune's
circulation, accepting it's own compila,-
tion, Is made up Of morning, noon and
evening editions.
1t is noted, too, that the Tribune'g
statements of circulation do not agree
with each other. On it's editorial page,
October "a, in publishing it's morning
and evening circulation separately, it
gives the total as ONE thousand less for
the same day (Oct. 49, than in it's state
ment for the month published yesterday
An examination Of this statement of it's
morning and evening circulation, given
separately, develops the fact that the
Journal has nearly SO per cent larger
circulation than the Evening Tribune
and more than 100 per cent larger than
the Morning Tribune.
But speaking of the relative values
of circulation, it is apparent that other
people make discrimination in favor of
the Journal, for from actua1measuremen

Expansion, the natural outcome of

by David j. Hill, Assistant Secretary
of State, in brilliant address in Phil
adelphia Saturday evening. Com
merce, not sordid grasping for gain
at the expense of human rights or lib
critics, but peace maker, guarantor
of the extension of justice, was de-
clared by Secretary Hill to be the ire
sistable force spreading the confines of
the United States across the Pacific.
The Spanish American war, with its
conflicts in the far East, he said, had
created third epoch in the develop
ment of the. earth, and made the Paci-
fic ocean the centre of the world, just
as in early ages the Mediterranean Sea
was the converging point for the prim-
ative civilizers.

If the Legislature should grant every
demand that has thus far been made
upon it for money, the State Treasury
would be bankrupt in less than six
months. The demand is legion and
there will be great many disappoin-
ted institutions when the Legislature
adjourns.
The total of the appropriations thus
asked for will exceed two hundred
thousand dollars, with more to hear
from before the end is near.

The daily papers have been filled
for the past week with accounts of the
death of Queen Victoria who will be
inferred at Windsor beside her hus-
band. the royal consort, Feb. =; and
the coronation of her son, Prince AL
bert, on Thursday, who takes her
place as the sovereign of England.
The Yonker's Statesman, in speaking
of the dozen years that the conduct of
the Prince of Wales left on sober Eng
land says:
All he did was exaggerated, and he
did enough to need no exaggeration.
The repute for sobriety, a respect for
putlic opinion, vigorous Difference
to the conventions and arigid restraint
which Victoria aud Prince Albert had
cieated for the court of England, he
dissapated. This reputation, however
much he has changed, has never left
him and it has left too, that heritage of
uncertain health which hot and re-
bellious youth brings.
His recovery from typhoid fever
80 years ago was the turning point in
his life. 1t restored popular affection,
il awakened popular interest, and he
himself would have been singularly
lacking iA personal feeling if he had
not been moved by the universal out
pouring of public love, affection and
regard by the entire British Empire.
A very considerable change became
apparent in his own public and perso-
nal relations. He began that sedulous
discharge of public duty which made
him the most popular Prince in Eng
land.
His position has been most difficult
He has gone on through all the years
Of usual life and career in a secondary
position with primary share of pub
lie functions. He could take no share
in public affairs. His opinion must
never be known on political issues.
His friendships and intimacies must
carefully avoid partisan lines. Yet,
as the first gentleman in England he
was daily, almost hourly, called to
one of the many ceremonial duties de-
manded of royalty, and whose tedious
discharge is usually sweetened by a
-conciousness of power, influence anC
rule.
Without this he has unweariedly
done his work In his early manhood
more than one scandal was laid to his
repFoach, he has for twenty years past
discharged the duties of a Crown
Prince with tact, industry and abil-
ity which have won a universal praise
