The November elections take place
next Tuesday and in spite of the fact
that they hinge largely on local and
state issues both parties are hoping
for encouragement with the chances
in favor of the Democrats extracting
more sunshine than the Republicans.
Perhaps the warmest battle-ground
is in Massachusetts, where Governor
Foss, Democrat, is fighting for re-
election. Foss was elected last year
with a margin of 10000 votes but the
Republicans have some hopes of win
ming this year on the ground that
Foss has alienated some of his Demo
cratic support and it is claimed that
some of the thousands of Repubii-
cans who voted for Foss last year
will not do so this. Foss has made a
fairly good governor but has talked
too much and sometimes with more
conceit and braggadocio than was
becoming. In New York there is a
sharp contest in progress for control
of the lower branch of the legislature
which has been Democratic the past
year. The chances seem to favor the
Republicans because of the scandal
GUS record of the Democratic legisla-
ture which has been under the thumb
of Murphy and Tammany and has
been about the worst gang that ever
assembled at Albany though some of
its Republican predecessors have no
great justification for throwing
stones. Democratic leaders high up
in the party councils in Greater New
York have been caught selling Judi
ciary nominations and this has
thoroughly Disguised the decent men
of the party. 1t is evident that the
state of New York will not have a
government worthy of respect until
the better elements of both parties
get together. The Republicans ought
to win Tuesday merely as the less
bad of the two. There are SHARP
contests in progress in Rhode Island
and Maryland with the prospects
apparently favorable to the Demo
Gratis in both states. Many other
states have elections of more or less
Importance but few Of them hinge or
national issues. 1t will be only from
the general tendency II one is shown
that any opinion can be formed, fol
any single contest may be decided
entirely on matters that have nothing
to do with national questions.

ANNEXATION OF CANADA
