CALL ONONDAGA SAFE.
One-tIsird of the Democrats VIII
Bolt Hearst, 1t Is Said.

Syracuse, Oct. 25 (speciaD.-One-third Of the
Democrats of Onondaga County are expected to
go against William r. Hearst. by not voting at
all, or by secretly openly voting for Charles q.
Hughes. Both parties have had a canvass taken.
The Republican seems to have been more thorough.
Neither definite satisfactory, but from
what one may gather from both the Republicans
are not losing any farm votes, while what Hearst
is gaining in the factories is quite offset by what
he is losing through the detection of conservative
Democrats.
For the first time in my experience in campaign

headquarters. Democrats coming into Repub-
Acan headquarters to give aid against their ticket"
But If tWo-thrds remain faithful to the Buffalo
convention ticket. what will resultP"
IF get one-third of the Democrats Hughes
will certainly be elected This week the situation
find it, is of various details. We can
only assemble them and draw an inference But
matters are fast crystallizins. and by Sunday we
should know surely what is going to happen
Democrats connected with the Democratic or
ganization privately say that the county will go
for Hughes by a somewhat larger plurality than
usual in state election.
The attitude OF John E. Nash. of Syracuse. one
of the numerous well known Democratic boilers,
is typical He says:
Hearst and one that must appeal to everybody,
is his lack of sincerity His Professions and his his
nomination Is The example chiefly ly dislike dislike He He
bs aast Ae Prevented Gf voters from voting
But in Buffalo he himself did Yorse-he threw out
delegates who had been truly elected
Insincer.ty on Hearsts part was specifically IN
dicated by Seldom z. McClusky. He pointed ont
that the whole burden Of Hearsts Onondaga
County campaign was being borne by ex-Mayor
James K. MCGUIRE. now political agent and legis-
latve handy Of the Asphalt Trust wherever

William R Hearst is a good man to be friendly
and he is working Tor the Mack-Widensr syndi-
cate, and the IaOkWidener syndicate is such a
that the Hearst newspapers do not find much fault
With it tt In !. fact the Hearst newspapers say as
