"The Christian nations must lead the movement for the promotion of peace, not only because they are enlisted under the banner of the Prince of Peace, but also because they have attained such degree of intelligence that they cen no longer take pride in a purely physical victory. The belief that moral questions can be settled by the shedding of human blood is a relic of barbarism; to doubt the dynamic power of righteousness is in- fidelity to truth itself.

BOTH PARTIES CONFIDENT
Publishers Press1

Philadelphia. Nov. 4.-The politica!
situation in the state of Pennsylvania
more than at any time during the
last 20 years is one that defies anti
cipation The fusion ticket, headed
by Lewis G. Emory, jr., its managers
claim, will sweep the state by ma
jority of 10000 while the supporters
of Edwin S. Stuart, the Republican
nominee declare he will win by 100,-
600 votes. They base their statement
upon the bitter attacks made by DR..
Silas G.. Swallow upon Emery, both
in regard to the candidates personal
character and his connection with
the Standard Oil Company On the
other hand the Emery managers here
made by state treasurer William HI.
Berry regarding graft and overchar-
ges in the state capitol job at Harris
burg, will be sufficient to sweep away
any doubt as to the success of the
Fusion candidates.
Impartial estimates point to a ma
jority of $4,000 n the state for
Emery. This however, does not in
clude the votes in either Philadelphia
or Allegheny, where Stuart sentiment
is unusually strong. 1t looks as
though the state situation really de-
pended upon Philadelphia, and while
boastful predictions are made by both
sides conservative politicians simply
decline to make estimates.

HUFFMAN WILL BE
'ARRA|GNED TODAY
Chicago 5arber Charged with
HorsE Theft Will Probably
Plead Guilty.
MS CASE A NOVEL ONE
his CASE A NOVEL ONE
AFTER SLEEPING OVER THE AZ
FAIR, HUFFMAN MADE CLEAN
BREAST OF HIS CRIME TO
SUPT. BAILEY.

James Huffman, the Chicago bar
Der who now admits that he would
have profited better to have remain
ed at his trade instead of attempting
to break into the profession of pill
fering horses, will in all likelihood en-
ter plea Of guilty this morning be
fore Judge Converse, when he is ar
raigned on the charge of stealing a
horse belonging to James Allen.
Huffman's bold act, taking the out
fit while it was hitched at Main and
Ninth streets, and his effort to get
away with the property by making
a circuitous drive which finally
brought back into Richmond and into
the hands of the police, perhaps is
the most unique case of the kind that
the local police department has ever
noted.
Huffman when arrested Saturday
night in the north end of the city
near the place where he had hitched
the outfit and where he had offered
it for sale, strenuously denied that
he was guilty of the theft; in fact
he denied that he was the man who
had driven the outfit into the city.
Yesterday, however, after a night
spent in the city Jail, with opportun-
ity to mediate on his situation, he
made a clean breast of the matter,
telling Supt. Bailey that he had taken.
the rig as charged, but declined to,
tell anything about his former career,
He simply insisted that he was a,
barber and was doing a little touring,
Supt. Bailey feels reasonably certain
that Huffman has past, and to-,
day the prisoner will face the cam
era of the police photographer and
when his likeness has been obtained
copies will be sent to Chicago and
other places in an effort to establish
his identity and fix his criminal re-
cord if he has one.

NO ExTA FORCE NEEDED
Special Sheriffs will Keep Order at the
Polls and Task of Police Will
Be Easy.

AS the Indiana election laws pro-
vide that there must be two special
deputy sheriffs, a Republican and
Democrat, at every voting place. the
Richmond police department is not
compelled to use any of it's force to
keep order at the polling places. II
has been many years since there have
been disturbing scenes at any voting
places in this city and as a usual
thing the special sheriffs, who are re-
quired to take an oath the same as
regular officers of the city or county,
have very little actual service to per-
form. Supt. Bailey, of the city po-
lice department, said last night that
he saw no occasion for the use of ex-
ira day policemen Tuesday, but that
he was not certain whether they
would be used or not.
