OHIO IS PREPARED
FOR GREAT BATTLE
Managers of Three Leading
Parties Are Confident
of Success.
(National News Association

COLUMBUS, o., Nov 4-With
three parties claiming victory, the ma
tional and state campaigns in Ohio
were brought to close today, Con
fidence exuberated from the head
quarters of each party and if there
was any worriment as to the outcome
of the battle Of Tuesdays ballots, it
was not visibly portrayed upon the
faces Of any of the party managers,
who issued their formal forecast:
The Republican state and nation
al ticket will receive a substantial ma
jority and not only will President
Taft be given the electoral vote, but
we will elect a governor, the majori-
ty Of the congressman and control the
next legislature This from Harry
NJ. Daugherty, manager Of the Taft
forces.
Governor Wilson will have an over
whelming majority; we will elect
practically all of the congressman,
and our state ticket will go through
with dash. We are only uncertain
about one thing and that is the size
of our majority-it will exceed 100000
in Ohio" stated Chairman w. L. Fin
ley, of the Democratic State Commit,
tee.
Colonel Roosevelt carried Ohio by
the greatest plurality any candidate
ever received and his victories of for
mer years will be repeated. In this
battle Theodore Roosevelt and the
people are arrayed on one side and
the interests are upon the other. The
people will win. We shall elect our
state ticket and control the next legis-
1ature," said Walter F. Brown. com
manding the Progressive forces
The Socialist, Prohibition and So
cialist Labor parties also have COM
plete tickets in the field but will hard
ly poll more than their customary
vote. The Socialists, however, are
very strong in the Twelfth Congress-
ional district (Columbus) and may
succeed in electing a congressman.
They will also elect members of the
legislature and few minor offices.
