mediately following, not less than M
ty men were employed to work every
day until election day and are being
paid good wages for knocking on the
republican party. Presumably the
money to employ many others in diff
ferent parts of the state has been fur
nished.
But despite all this the fact remain,
that the democrats have little hope,
while some hope has been inspired in
a few republicans who take their ad-
vice from corporation sources But the
democrats as such know that the case
is hopeless.
On the other hand the republican
campaign has been conducted openly
and in a clean manner. The republican
state central committee has done Its
work not for any one or two or three
candidates, but for all the candidates,
and has given especial attention to the
congressional fights. The money for
the republican campaign has come in
small amounts, the major portion OF 1t
coming from the dollar contributions
solicited in the past few weeks. At
the very outset 1t was determined that
no money should be solicited from cor
porations and this policy has beer ad-
hered to. The character of the fight
showed plainly that the political cor
porations would all be with the demo-
cratic candidate and all against the re-
publican candidate. But with small
funds a vast amount Of literature has
been circulated with view to giving
the people correct information as to
state affairs; and a number OF speak
ers have been placed upon the stump.
AS rule, despite that there were diff
ferences before the convention, the
members of the republican organiza-
ton in the state-the $500 party work
ers-have been loyal and earnest In
their support of the republican tick
ct. There has been all along confidence
In the success of the republican ticket,
but within the past two weeks this has
been increased by reason of the ex-
cellert reports received from the party
workers.
1t is recognized on all hands that tho
sole fight OF the year is on governor.
Governor Cummins himself has not a
particle of doubt Of his own election.
His close friends figure on a, good ma
jority 1t is expected that his vote
will not run as high as the average on
the republican ticket. The difference
will represent the voting strength OF
the corporation influence. .
1t is anticipated that the count will
BE slow and that it will be well along
toward Wednesday morning before the
newspapers are able to give any intel
ligent statement as to results. Some
of the judges Of election, especially in
the cities, will have to labor all night
long. The theory. however that this
is going to be due entirely to the TAX
ing of the circle off the ballot, is said
by competent persons to be all wrong.
The fact is that owing to local con-
ditions. and the large number of can
didates, nearly every voter is going to
be a, scratcher somewhere along the
line this year and every voter who. has
in mind, to be scratcher or to vote
Independently, is not at all concerned
over the loss of the circle.
