 Mayor Thomas L. Reilly of Meri- den, candidate for congressman in the second district, was also a speaker and he delivered strong address.
 Governor Walters speech was as follows
 Tn this closing hour of our state as we'll as our national campaign 1t is only just to say that the representa- tive body of republicans, among whom are the strongest supporters and best friends of Mir.

 Vote tho republican ticket and pre- serve prosperity protection to Amer ican industries, business integrity and the rights of labor" This was the message with which Mir. Taft finished his fight.
 The close of the campaign in this city tonight was in magnitude and enthusiasm fitting climax to all that has gone before The six and one half hours Judge Taft spent in Youngs- town were crowded with political events. resplendent with the pomp and show of party organizations an da carnival of hilarity, noise and general abandon by tne popuace to the occa- sion.
 Three speeches were required of tho candidate at the Park theater, the Grand opera house and in the public square Besides these the candidate reviewed parade which was miles In length, required hours in passing and was composed of many thousand uniformed marcners. He was then the guest of the prominent politicians of the city al the Youngstown club for a dinner which was served before the evening speech making began.

BALLOTS CORRECT.

In regard to the validity of the ballots issued by the anti-Lilley organIza of this state the committee of that organization has secured the following opinion signed by eX-Judge Stoddard of the superior court, The opinion Is also signed by j. Birney Futile, The opinion follows:
 New Haven Conn Nov ?. Mi William T, Hodenbachs
 Chairman Antl-Lilley Commit ice,
 Dear sir;--ln reply to your request for an opinion as to the validity of the ballots sent out by your committed:
 These ballots are printed on blanks prepared and furnished by tine secretary of state, pursuant to law.
 Tt is understood that some that there ballots are invalid, be- cause they vary. say one-eighth 10 sixteenth of an inch from the prescribed size,
 In our opinion there Is nothing in this claim, The ballots are unquestionably legal.
 In Phelan vs. Walsh, 62 Con- nectlcut 26l, tho supreme court held that ballots which contain ed the name of person who was not resident of the district where voted, but was a candidate in another district, were valid.
 So that If by mistake any bal lot sent out by your committee into Congressman Hill's district bears the name of candidate for congress in another district this will not invaidate the ballot New Haven. Nov 2

Publication Of Entire Cores. pondence With President Roosevelt Shows Truth
 Of Attacks on His
 Honesty. STATE THOROUGHLY HOUSED Indications Point to Very Close Gubernatorial Fight, With Taft Carrying the State

 Margin.
STATE THOROUGHLY HOUSED

In this section of the state George L. Lilley has seriously injured him. self in eleventh-hour attempts to con- fuse the voters. The publication of the correspondence with Mir. Roose- vent, declared one man last night, will lnJure him as much, if not more, than any other of hls blunders Those who read 1t through will see how true have been the attacks on MT. Lilley's hon. esty. His very desperateness, as seen by yesterdays news Is taken as proof of his insincerity and his plunging methods will not convince anyone of his fitness for office.
 The day dawns with the status of the campaign much where 1t was twenty-four hours ago. Although the last day of the campaign has resulted in the publication of the entire Roose- velt-Lilley correspondence anent the presidents approval of certain speech by the congressman delivered something over year ago on the floor of the house of representatives 1t can not be said that this will nave any bearing on the situation as the sub. stance of the letters has been pub lished before and calm and un- prejudiced perusal of them can only tend to convince the reader that they haev no bearing on the situation in the present campaign.
 Another ripple that has bothered the surface of affairs the past few days, but which sinks to rest as the time for voting actually draws near, is the attempted scare regarding the irll- perfect ballots. In the first place there were but few of these ever printed and they only reached one town, and furthermore the voters are not worrying about not Knowing a ticket that will count from one that will not. The voters know their ball. lots will be safe as the only mistake has been corrected long ago, and there is nothing in this situation to enter into the calculation, As last word this paper tnis morning is printing an opinion, legal and from a good legal authority, too, no less man that ex- Judge Henry Stoddard of this city, de- claring that the ballots are unques- tionably legal that the opposition committee which is opposing MT. Lil- ley is sending out
 This leaves the campaign to go to the public on it's merits and that they have been pretty thoroughly threshed out need not be said The voters are only waiting to get their chance ot say the final word and when they have said 1t and the ballot boxes are closed
