Columbus, Oct. 17.-AL. Carlisle, the
iovial Salem citizen, who aided mate
rally to make Grover Cleveland's ad-
ministration success by looking after
the furniture, was at state headquar
ters Tuesday. Mr.. Carlisle is an en-
thusiastic Democrats. but tempers his
enthusiasm with lot Of good sense
and his conference with DR.. Gillian,
the de facto head of the state COM
mittee, was not without beneficial re-
suits. Mr.. Carlisle takes an optimis-
tic view of the situation, though he
will make no declaration that has
about it any of the characteristics
OF the braggadocio. His advice has
always been sought by Ohio Demo
Gratis and the boys in his home county
have banked to some extent on his
views of the political kaleidoscope.
In an interview with your correspon-
dent Mr.. Carlisle said
81 realize that the assassination OF
President Mckinley may have the ef-
feet to
UNIFY THE OPPOSITION,
but am unable to see just why that
can come about. In the first place, Mr..
Hanna is not so securely in the saddle
as he was and the situation tends to
revamp Foraker. There are those
who will take advantage CT that con-
dition of things, and will not permit
Governor Nash to control their votes.
The Democratic ticket is one of the
best that has been put in the field by
Ohio Democrats for years. 1t is COM
prised of honorable, conservative men,
able, upright and patriotic, and will
demonstrate its strength when the
votes are counted. You may say for
me that | believe there are
SOME SURPRISES
in store for the Republicans this fall.
Just mark that prediction. Colonel
Kilbourne's nomination was the best
that could have been made. and want
to suggest that the Republican breth-
ren will realize mis- strength when
they view the result. Our Democratic
friends will congratulate themselves
on the nomination of Mr.. Kilbourne
when they note his popularity in the
state. The character Of the campaign
is such that it is difficult to get direct
line on it, but | am of the opinion
In looking over the situation in the
state. that If the Democrats get out 80
per cent Of the vote, there is assur-
ance from the sources sufficient to
make certain Democratic success. The
thing is to
GET THE VOTE OUT.
Argument will avail little this year.
There is not time to drive the facts
home. My advice is to get the vote
out. With the sple!Iid ticket we
have, | am convinced that it will vote
right when we get it out. Eastern
Ohio ought to be particularly inter
ested, with Anthony Eowells on the
ticket. | know no better man or bet.
Ter Democrat"
Mr. Carlisle has been 10 New York
for some time and was on his way
home when he dropped into hcadquar
ters. He had come direct through, as
he desired to give some of his time
to the campaign and wanted to get
what information was available, after
a somewhat extended absence. He
gays Tammany is bound to
WIN IN NEW YORK.
THAT man Sheppard is wonder"
said he. 81 am impressed with him
as | have been with no other man
save Grover Cleveland, and he Is a
second Cleveland. Mark my words,
he is conner. Tammany has
a faculty for finding good men in
great crises, and the tiger has
proven that her record is honestly
gained in this regard. Sheppard will
be elected not because of wire-pulling
and the corruption of which Tammany
has been accused, but he will be elect
ed because he deserves to be elected"
A. w. Agler, Canton attorney, was
seen at Republican headquarters Tues
day. Mr.. Agler had business in the
city and called incideDtany on the Re-
publican managers He is not assign
ed by the committee to do any SPELL
binding but is keeping in close touch
with the political situation. He has
considerable confidence of Republican
success in Stark county.
