MIR. HAYES OPINION.
Walter H. Hayes, gives his o. inion
as follows:
II predict that Dbl aware will
give at least 1000 plura lity for the
State Republican ticket, with the
exception of Congressman. AS IS
well known, there are two Repu bli-
can candidates and one Democrat.
This will necessarily divide the Re-
publican vote, if tho differences b.
tween the Republican factional can
didates are not aljuital. In the
event that they are, the Rcpublicl Il
candidate will also be elected. As
to theLegislature, there will be from
30 to 81 Republicans elected out OF
the 50 members.

candidates for the Legislature as
