will elect a successor to Senator Vest.
Both parties are predicting success.
The republicans of Connecticut ex-
press entire confidence Of the success
Of their entire ticket by substantial
plurality. The democrats are hopeful
of electing four or five congressman.
The vote in Ohio will probably be
light. The fight centers around the
state legislature, which chooses Han
mas successor. The result also will have
bearing on the future of Mayor john
son.
Unusual interest in Rhode Island
centers in the congressional fight. The
republicans claim reelection of both
congressman, but the democrats are
equally optimistic.
Conservative estimates are that the
republicans Of Maryland will elect four
congressman, and the democrats two.
The delegation is now republican.
In most of the southern states but
little interest has been manifested in
the campaign. The probabilities are
for light vote and little change in the
present party complexion.

mant that they have no ticket is re-
garded by republicans as unfortunate.


There is another feature of the cam
paign which will bring out a good
vote in some of the congressional dis
tricts, but which has not been much
discussed. A politician of statewide
acquaintance said of this: fractional
feeling is giving us some help in some
of the districts. For instance, there is
no denying that in the Sixth district
where Major Lacey has one of his
usual hard fights on hand the men
who have been his staunch supporters
in the past are exerting themselves
to give him a nice majority. The same
is true in the First district. Both Of
these candidates are what have been
called anti Cummins" for want of =.
better definition. and if they get good
majorities it will be taken as an indi-
cation that the people in those districts
are firm in their adherence to the old
leaders. Then there is an element OF
desire to get back at the Iowa idea
and it is known that both Hedge and
ond and Third districts conditions are
reversed. 1t is known that Hoffman
was nominated by the very men who
have all along made the Second dis
trict solid for Cummins. TO great
degree the fate Of Hoffman is wrapped
up in the interests of Gov. Cummins
and his Second district friends. They
want to give Hoffman a good ma
jority to show that the Iowa idea is
decidedly popular and is one on which,
to win victories. Over in the Third
1T is known that Judge Birdsall is a
very close friend Of the governor. III
fact had about as much to do with the
nomination of Cummins as any one
man in the state outside of the man.
ayers who engineered the campaign.
There are republicans in the district
so foolish as to have made the asser-5
ton that nobody unless it is one who
has been follower of the speaker can
be elected in the district. But Judge
Birdsall and his friends are going to
show them that as a vote getter he is
the equal of any person in the dis.
trict. 1t was at his request that Gov.
Cummins came into the district several
times and spoke from the same plat
form with him. This work will tell
on election day.
Almost the only matter Of local in
terest in Des Moines in connection with
the election is a contest for justice of
the peace in West Des Moines. The
controversy grows out of disagree
ments among the people as to whethe!
Justice Duncan, who is the only judicial
officer before whom anyone accused
of completely in the supposed murder
Of Mabel Scofield was ever brought,
performed his whole duty in refusing
to place under bonds an accused per-
son. There are no charges of dis
honesty or corruption. but merely a
difference as to his Judgment in the
case. The democrats have named but
one candidate for justice and hope to
defeat Duncan by reason of the fight
made on him.

ment claim what they term the inter-
ference of the Americans prevents them
from dealing effectually with the rebels,
who occupy certain towns where they
collect taxes and make seizures of

The revolutionists. in their turn,
claim that the presence of the Aneri-
cans prevents them from bringing
about final coup in the revolution.
There is much suffering on the 18TH

coming intolerable.

TURKEY YIELDS TO ENGLAND.
Sultan Orders Withdrawal of Troops
on HinterIand OF Alden.

Constantinople, Nov 3-The negotia-
tions between Great Britain and Turkey
with regard to the encroachments of
Turkish troops on the Hinterland of
Alden have resulted in satisfactory
settlement of the matter. The porte
has modified it's note to Great Britain,
and has ordered the evacuation OF the
Hinterland which was formerly occu-
pied by British troops.
The trouble from which the Turkish
invasion of the Alden Hinterland arose
was a frontier dispute, the settlement
of which was placed in the hands of a
joint Turco-British commission.
1t was announced from Constantine
ple on Oct. Is that the British ambas-
sador to Turkey, Sir N. III. O'Conor
had protested to the porte against the
Turkish invasion of the territory in
question. declaring that unless these
Turkish soldiers We're withdrawn In
dian troops would be sent to expel
them.

Roosevelt and Loubet,

Paris, Nov. 3.-In an article headed
1.-TWO Presidents" La Patrie compares
President Roosevelt with President
Loubet. Referring to the French and
American coal strikes the paper says
the energetic measures adopted by
President Roosevelt brought the Ameri-
can strike to an end, and declares that
President Loubet was confronted by
conditions exactly the same as those
Roosevelt dealt with. but that the
president of France remained passive,
with the result that the French strike
continues, amid misery and loss.
The paper draws the conclusion that
the American president, who is elected
by the people, represents the people,
whereas the president of France waits
the slow process of parliament, and
that the French people suffer from the
reign of parliamentarism.
