New York. Nov. Mime national
political conventions were held this
year, and nine candidates for president
and vice president of the United States
were nominated, but only six electoral
tickets will be generally voted for one
week from today. Besides 'the two
great political parties" seven others
ton. socialist, socialist labor, continent
tai (labor), national liberty (negro) and
Lincoln (negro.) The two negro parties,
however. apparently ended their work
when the national conventions adj
iourned, as no electors have been Sc
lected, or at least, none will appear on
any official ballot; and the continental
party seems to be confined to Illinois,
and, perhaps. to Chicago, the place OF
Ats origin.
The terms Of thirty United States
senators expire March 4. next. Seven
OF the vacancies have already been
filed, and the legislatures OF twenty
three states to be elected November 8,
will fill the other twenty-three. Mem
beers OF the house OF representatives are
to be voted for in all except three
states-Maine, Vermont and Oregon,
which have already elected their con-
gress;nen.

officers are to be chosen; IN i've states
minor state officers are to be selected,
and in thirteen electors are to be voted
for.

to abide by the decision OF the factional
conference which resulted in the with
drawal of the union" candidate, and
an agreement upon a compromise
ticket. The Nrepublicans in Wisconsin
will have a choice between two tickets
for state officers, the "stalwarts' hav-4
ing decided to keep up their fight
against LaFollette. The electors on
both tickets, however, are identical.
The democrats and peoples party, or
populists, fused on the state ticket in
Kansas and Nebraska, but in both
states the peoples party named separ-
ate presidential electors. In Nevada
the democrats and one wing Of the
silver party divided the minor state Of
ficers to be voted for, but the "stalwart
silver" men put up their own electors.

The peoples party, which Endorsed
Mr.. Bryan in 1896 and 1900, has an ac-
tive organization in thirty-two Of the
forty-f1v states, the nominees for state
officers and electors being on the Of
