RICHMOND. Va. Nov. 3.-One Of the
most interesting gubernatorial campaigns
in virginia since 1871 is now nearing d
close. ON Tuesday the battle Of the hal
lots will tell who is to be the next gov
ernor of the Old Dominion 1t is said
that more money has been used by the
Republicans in this campaign than has
ever been spent by the party in a similar
contest in this state. The EubernatoriaI
candidates have been i'm the field ever
since Montague and Fioge were nomi-
mated Sena yrs Martin and DAME! ahi
the Republicans in Congress from TINS
state have also been At work for the
Democratic ticket The campaign has
been vigorously wagod and it is expected
that a fun vote viii be drawn out
The Rcpubliclns have put forth more
energy this year Jhal they have ever
been known TO in a gubernatorial fight
before. in tho hope Of r,habiiitating the
party in the State and reducing previous
Democratic mainrities. As a result Of
this it is thought by conservative politi-
cans that Andrew jackson Montague, tn
Democratic candidate. will not carry the
State by more than > 90 to 3OU)o Hoge
claims that he will carry every precinct
in Roanoke County including the city of
Roanoke, but it is not likely that there
has been such a change there since the
last election wnen the city and county
gave Tyler. the present Governor. over
whelming ma isrities. The Republican
candidate also claims that he viii carry
Rockingham. Augusta. and RuCkbridge
counties. Only a few precincts of these
CouT les are counted in doubt by thc
Democrats.
1t is expected by the Republicans that
their cause viii be aided by the work of
the State Constitutional Convention
which began its work here several months
ago aud has not yet concluded it. l, mo-
cratic leaders, however. declare that ,he
Constitutional Convention will not figure
in the result of Tuesdays battle. and pre-
dict a victory for Montague almost equal
To that OF Governor Tyler in 1881. when
he swept the State by a plurality over
his Republican opponent Of over 5000.
