ELECTIONS TOMORROW.

Elections will be held tomorrow In
seven States and six of the larger cities.
In Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Vir-
ginia and Ohio governor and other
State officers are to be chosen, and in
Pennsy lvania, Maryland and Nebraska,
minor State officers, judges or regents of
The State university. In New York, In
dianspolis, Louisville, Salt Lake aud
San Francisco, mayor and other city
officers, and in Chicago sanitary trus-
tees and judges are to be voted for.
rhe democrats and populists have fused
in Nebraska, the republicans and demo-
Gratis against the union labor party in San
Francisco, and the republicans and Other
parties against the democrats in Louis
vile.
In Pennsylvania there has been a mis-
celaneous Endorsement of the republican
and democratic candidates.
No federal elections will be held aud
no national issues are involved in any Of
of the campaigns. But it is doubtful if
at any election in recent years have the
people been so intensely aroused and
been stirred so deeply as during the
campaign that ends tonight.
Party politics have been almost COM
pietely banished in several ether States.
In none of them where the fights are
thickest is the republican party making
a clear-cut fight against the democratic
party.
In several case it is the fight of hon
esty against graft of corruption. 1t is.
an attempt of the people to regain con-
troll oftheir government. Larger ques-
tons than the mere men on the ballot
are involved. No less interesting than
the state fights are the contests in the
cities of New York, Philadelphis, In
dianapolis, Louisville, Salt Lake and San
Francisco.

LULL IN THE STORM.

There is not the slightest doubt but
that the Russian press and people dis
trust the Emperor's promise OF freedom.
The revolutionary movement is only
halted pending further action by the
government. The Emperor and WHITE
realize the situation.
An official communication points out
that the publication of the Emperor's
manifesto of October 80 has not yet
pacifed the country, and declares it in
dispensable that all classes of the popu-
lstion shall refrain from actions which
might render the situation more acute
and to exercise the greater circumspec-
ton in relations between the different
classes of the population in order to
avoid conflicts and disorders, which the
government must suppress TO insure
immunity of the person and property of
all citizens in Russia of all nationalties
and religions.
The manifesto is ordered sent to the
heads of all administrations.
The rather faint praise with which
the leading newspapers, appearing for
the first time in over week, greet the
new constitutional regime, indicates dis
trust in the governments sincerity, but
all assume that this sounds the knell of
autocratic power.
By agreement all the newspapers lead
their columns with the announcement of
the freedom Of the press, and they have
banded themselves together to hereafter
defy all arbitrary attempts at censor
ship. Their editorials manifest little
spirit OF gratitude TO the Emperor.
A most urgent demand is made for the
immediate removal of General TrepoA.
Fatal encounters between the soldiers
and the populace and anti-Jewish ex-
cesses are reported from many places in
the provinces. On Saturday and yes
terday at Kremenchug 20 persons were
killed and 80 injured. At,Kutais mill
tary train was wrecked ana nine soldiers
were killed or injured on both sides.
At Berdichef several persons were
killed or injured, and at Minsk serious
rioting arose through the troops prevent
ing a meeting of citizens. A hundred
were killed and 600 wounded.
The massacre and pillage of the Jews
continues at Kishinef.
Yesterday passed in St. Petersburg
without disorder or blOodshsd. The
social democrats and revolutionists had
planned mammoth demonstration in
connection with the funerals Of those
killed in last weeks riots. Late Satur-
day night, however, when it became
known tina. General Trepof would not
permit big demonstration threatening
disorder, and that the mayor had issued
a proclamation saying that the atreets
we're no place for the airing OF political
grievances, the socialist leaders called
off their plans. Accordingly the funerals
we're held in private and workmen at
tended memorial services in the various
mills.
Great patriotic demonstrations we're
held in the streets of Warsaw yesterday
10y crowds estimated at 200, 900 persons.
Professions, headed by clergy and
singing "God save Poland" paraded
the principal streets.

SENATOR GORMAN.

Senator German, in an interview in
Baltimore yesterday replied to Governor
Warfeld statement, in which the Gov
ernor reiterated bis opposition to the
suffrage amendment. In the course of
the interview Senator German said:
"Mr. Warfield was elected Governor upon
the distinct issue of eliminating the negro
voter. He is keeRly conscious of that fact,
and he realizes the unfortunate position in
which he stands.
1.-The Governor has satisfied himself that
upon this question he is Alpha aud Omega.
This is a most unfortunate and dangerous
conclusion for any leader Of his party to
reach. i am the party. ] am the State, does
not sound well. | think such an assumption
indefensible.
"When will we again elect three-ffths Of
the members Of the General Assembly? The
Governor knows TIE time is nov, and that if
the amendment is not adopted it fastens upon
the State for long tiWe unlimited negro suf-
frage.
The Governor knows that if the amend
ment can be defeated this can only come by
the misuse of the great power intrusted to
him by the democratic party.
"I think the white men Of Maryland, with
out regard to party, have determined 10 set
tie this question, and by fair and lawful
methods, so look for the adoption of this
anne ndment.
1T is the only time in his whole career
that have ever known the Governor 10 in
sist on his own judgment being superior to
all Of his party fellows. and know of no man
in the State who has more strongly advocated
party discipline or who has more vigorously
denounced party insubordinatiOn.
aft il nlain n m that he has mazda a fatal
mistake in abandoning the well-beaten path
of independence Of thought, couplet with
unity in all party action, that has brought
such great success to him and me II has
given to both Of us station and prominence
probably beyond our deserts"

SOME Of the republican papers are
boldly asserting that the young demo-
Gratis Of Virginia. failing to see any
future for themselves in the admlnistra-
ton of the democracy, are avowiHg their
purpose to link their political fortunes
with the republican party. The repuH
licans may hug this fond delusion to
their souls, Tor while many Of our young
men think it hard thing for them to
be outside the army Of those who enjoy
the patronage of the government, We
can boldly declare that while the south
has large negro contingent with which
TO deal, there can never be any doubt as
to how the southern man votes. The
time has not arrived when any Virginian
will sell his birthright for mess Of pot
tage, however highly seasoned, and no
honied words, nor specious arguments to
prove "that negro supremacy is practi'
cally removed can affect the honor and
integrity of our southern men. The

A coLoRED Baptist convention held
in Richmond recently set about to or
ganize negro party and to stay away
from the polls on election day. The
project is supported in all directions, and
letters received in Richmond state that
the number of cOlOred men to vote to-
morrow will be much smaller than usual.
Since Judge Lewis and other republic
can office seekers are proclaiming from
the stump that "negro supremacy Is
practically removed in Virginia, many
colored man see no use in longer voting
for that party, while others, it is said,
are at last beginning to realize that the
democrats are their best friends, and will
tomorrow vote against Judge Lewis.

tinues his fight for white supremacy IN

of the republican party against him,
added to which is the opposition of many
men heretofore in his own party who
have been elevated to high positions oy
democratic votes. Such men call them
selves "independent democrats" but in
truth they are deserters, or republicans
at heart, aud should never again be

voters. The Senator has herculean

Mr.. j. b. HENDERSON, jr., erstwhile
of Missouri, is the nominee of the re-
publcans of the city and county of Alex
andris, for the House of Delegates. That
is he was put up for this position at a
little meeting held in this city recently
by order of the State chairman, Mr..
Slemp, who directed that Mr.. HeDder-
son should not be opposed. Now tits not
believed that Mr.. Henderson is known
by dozen people 10 Alexandria, but
because he would pay the price, Mr..
Slemp let him have the nomination and
orders his followers TO vote for him
over Mr.. Cation, who has made one Of
the most faithful and efficient representa-
tiyes Alexandria has had in the House
for many years. it is said that Mr..
Henderson's candidacy was brought
about by "his people," who wished to
get him into politics and who selected
the Alexandria district because it was
"easy." That they properly "sized up

AN ARGUMENT is being used against
Mr.. Cation in the county to the effect
that should he be reelected he would
have large part of the county annexed
to the city, And there are numbers OF
people in the county fools enough to be
gulled by such statements. Still, such
arguments should not injure Mr.. Cation
in Alexandria city.

same reason for "solid south holds
good now as it did forty years ago.

SENATOR MARTIN, who is in Rich
mond to assist the campaign work OF the
democratic party, makes this state
ment:
At the November election, 1904, with
a total vote of 1913, 528, Psrker's major
ity over Roosevelt was 92, 1853. At the
August primary SO, 206 democratic votes,
in the aggregate, were cast for the can
didates for governor. Assuming that
Mr.. Swanson will receive that vote and
conceding to Judge Lewis as large a vote
"a was cast for Roosevelt last year, A.
$50. Mr. Swanson's majority would be
95. 1926 in a total vote of 19l ,OS6."
II all democrats who voted in the
primary, and thereby pledged themselves
TO vote in the regular election for the
democratic nominees, will keep that
pledge and discharge its obligations, the
democratic ticket will be elected by a
handsome majority. 1t is most impor-
tant that every democrat should vote.
