DEMOCRATS WILL GAIN.
Additional Congressman Will Be Elec-
 ted In Illinois,

Chicago, H.. Nov 3.-The actual work of the State and county cam paigns were finished tonight, with mass meetings in all parts of the city of Chicago, and in many places throughout the State.
 The apathy which characterized the campaign in the carly stages has van- ished and there has been, during the last three weeks, mucn more fervor and interest shown. It has been how ever, decidedly an off year political fight.
 In this State the on. officers to be elected are State Treasurer, State Su- perntendent of Public Instruction and three trustees of the State University. Congressional elections will be held in all districts and in some of them the fight has been hot. It Is generally be- lieved that the Republican ticket will win on the State officers proper, but the claims of the party managers off fer wldey regarding the Congressional elections.
 Chairman West. of the Republican State Central Committee. said today that he expected the Republican par tv to carry .he State by an overwhelm- ing majority He also predicted vic tory for his party in Cook county
 Chairman Boeschenstein. of the Democratic Committee, declared that the Democrats will surely carry eight Congressional districts, probably ten and possibly fourteen. He also claimed that the Democrats will make substan- tial gains in the next legislature, which is to elect a successor to Sena- tor shelby Cullom, He did not assert. however. that the Democrats will be able to elect the next United States senator. while Chairman West of the Republican party declared that there was not the slightest doubt that the successor to Senator Cullom would be q Republican,.
 The Democrats have but one con grcssman, Rainey of the Twenty first District, from this State at this time and the Republicans concede that he will be reelected.
 In the Twentieth District they also concede the election of d Democrat. They are making a strong fight in the latter. however, and the result either way is not certainty. The managers

 New York, Nov. 3--The hardest work of particularly hard week had been reserved by his campaign managers for today when Charles E. Hughes made six day and four evening ad- dresses before the largest and most demonstrative audiences that yet had heard the Republican gubernatorial
 Tonight there were three indoor meetings. He said among other things:
 Forty years ago we had @ great crisis in this country--a little more than forty years ago-and to preserve the Union we poured out our money and the lives of many of our best citi- zens. We desired to have equality be- fore the law. We desired to have the benefits of free institutions extended to all those that were just as much enti- tied to them as those that alpeady en- joyed them.
 The Union was preserved. but our enorts to preserve our free government must be unremitting
 Tn this campaign there has been brought home to all the citizens of this State that they must be alive to what Is essential to the perpetuity of decent, free, honorable government.
 once you abandon that conscientious desire to do right, that desire to accord to your neighbors the right that you demand for yourself, you enter upon path that leads straight to anarchy.
 We do not want any lynch law in this country. We do not want any lynch law in criticism. We do not want any lynch law in newspapers. We do not want any lynch law or the spir- tt that manifests itself in lynch law anywhere
 we can accomplish our reforms in an orderly and sober manner Screech- Ing and rending the air with shrieks and shouts do not settle any yexed question, either in our business or our political life We want sincere and disinterested leadershin, -.-.

 New York Nov. 3.-After day "f rest broken only by rip to Ton kers, where he spoke briefly. William K. Hearst tonight made lively tour of Manhattan where seven monster mass meetings had been arranged in his interest.
 The candidates failing voice was a severe handicap to his oratorical ef- forts. but he was cheered by thou sands. we have made a good fht and we will win a great victory. The victory will be great in the number of our plurality. for believe that we will win by over 100000. But the victory will be greater in another way. It will be great victory for the people against the power of cor rupt corporations. 1t will be a great victory for the Democracy of Thoma !, Jefferson and the Republicanism et Abraham Lincoln.
 Tt will he moro than a victory for political principles. It will he vic- tory for essential morality in public life. for truth in public statement and for honesty in public service.
 Hundreds of thousands of dollars. perhaps millinos of dollars. will D.. thrown into this State and city os election day by corrupt corporations to debauch the ballot and eorrupf clcc- tion officials. Certainly hese grea: trusts that make millions and hun dreds of millions by governmental ia vors and through the failure of pub Ii. officials to enforce the law will srend part of these millions to pro servie their special privileges.
 Protect your ballots next Tuesday See that the vote Is ronestly cast and honestly counted and we will win a great victory for the people.

Five Democrats May Go to Congres ss
 From Quaker State.
 Philadelphia. Nov. 3.-What has been one of the most bitterly fought gubernatorial campaigns in this state for many years practically closed to- night.
 Local contests have been lost sight of in the fight for governor between Lewis Emery, Jr., the Lincoln Demo- cratic candidate, and Edwin s. Stuart, Republican.
 The campaign this fall has been fought on the same lines as the one which swept William H. Berry. the Lincoln prohibition Democratic candi- date into the office of state treasurer last fall. The fusion leaders have been directing the attention of the voters to the alleged Graft" in connection with the furnishing of the new state capitol at Harrisburg, claiming that between five and six millions of dol lars have been stolen or wasted.
 Wesley R. Andrews, chairman of the Republican committee claims Stuart will have a majority of over 100000.
 Chairman Niles, of >the Lincoln par ty Is sanguine of the election of Emery by at least 150,00O.
 The congressional situation Is in teresting. At present there Is only one Democrat in Congress from Penn sylvania, but it would not be surpris- ing to see at least five in the next delegation.

HOLD THEIR OWN.
Kentucky Delegation in Congress VIII
 Hardly Be Changed.

Louisville, Ky. Nov. 3.-The situa- tion in Kentucky as regards the Con- gressional races offers no certainty of any change from the present represen- tation of nine Democrats and two Re- publicans.
 However. the Republicans claim they will gain the Third and Fifth Districts, the latter consisting of Louisville and Jefferson County. In any event. these two Districts rromise to be close. The races for Governor and United States Senator to succeed McCrary in the Democratic primary which will be held on election day are much befogged by deals and rumors of deals between candidates in the two races.
 The result in both cases seems to hinge on the size of the majorities given in the First and Fifth Districts Governor Beckham is credited tonight with slight advantage over Senator McCreary for the Senatorship. and s. W. Hager. probably has better pros poets than N. B. Hays for the Cover norship.

 At the Democratic State Central Committee headquarters, it is claim ed the State will be carried by q Dem ocratic majority of between 30.000 and 10000 A Republican majority of from 15,000 to 10000 votes in the State is the claim made at the Republican State Central Committee headquarters.

New York. Nov. 3.-Max F. Ihmsen, political manager for William R. Hearst, gave out a statement tonight In which he says:
 'I am absolutely confident that Mir Hearst will win this election by 200.- 900 majority. The desperation of the Republicans is manifested in the course they have pursued federal interference has been invoked and vii tuperation and abuse have taken the place of argument but if vituperation and abuse fail, as they surely must the Republicans have another reliance That reliance is money.
