national forestry bureau sent twenty
men down to the woods of Maine to ex-

the experts to the letter. No trees will
be cut with a diameter at the base of

Hay believes that the Democratic party

believes that the fine fight made by the
Democrats in the campaign just closed

country and draw many voters to its

ment relative to the election:
I'VE are encouraged by the large DEM
ocratic gains In Cuyahoga county. in spite
OF the fact that large vote was potled
and a greater interest aroused on the
part of the Republicans. The county
ticket was elected. and in the cases where
we lost it was due solely to personal pre-
ferences, and involved no practical prin-
ciple.
"Eut probably the most encouraging
sign is the fact that where Mr.. Bigelow
made his campaign outside of Hamilton
county. satisfactory gains were almost
universal. The time was too short to eX-
pose the viciousness Of the municipal code
and the Cincinnati franchise grab. The
result in Hamilton county was due to dis
honest election methods. rather than lack
of interest. Cox and Mclean controlled
the entire election machinery. There was
nothing to prevent either dishonest voting

election until every defective ballot or az
legged defective ballot has been scruti-
nized and every vote that of right be-
longs to our party is counted The al

We have evidence of wholesale debauch-
cry and corruption in Orange, Oneida. AL

along the line of the New York Central
