Hard work, brilliant speeches and thorough organi- uation have wrested victory out of defeat, In July the democrats were defeated and dis- couraged.

Purnell, editor of the North State, the official orgun of the republican party, says: | “There is some prospect of Harrison's getting the electoral vote of North Carolina. The state | republican ticket will be counted out. As to Congressman, Cheatham in the second district, Settle in the ‘fifth, Wilcox in the eighth and Pritchard in the niuth, all republicans, stand | good chances of election. The other districts | | will go democratic, save possibly the fourth, | | where Stroud, the ‘third party candidate, may | | get in. The jegislature will probably be anti- | | democratic. What is the outlook is that the | people's party and republicans will have a good | majority. The third party will poll « fer | larger vote than the democrats believe possible.” | At democratic headquarters it is said that the republicans are trading witb the populiste, offering votes for legislative tickets, county officers and even Congressmen for votes for Harrison. The third party, it is alleged, bas of course no hope and is quite ready for a trade. At many places in the state there wana sus- pension of business today. The democrat Placed much reliance upon the vote of the towns. Republican State Chairman Eaves said inst night that he felt eure Harrison would get North Carolina's vote. He certainly did not r sanguine as to the state ticket. He renewed the statement that the legislature would be anti- democratic, and saidagain he had not beard that Clarke, republican, bad withdrawn im the third district from the Comgreasional race. At democratic headquarters it was also said that no news of Clarke's withdrawal bad been re- ceived. Editor Purnell said he, too, thought | Clarke was still in the race. It is claimed by some democrats that the negro vote in this election really amounts to very little. The republicans in some cases have distrusted the black voters, and say a number will vote for the third’ party state ticket. They will not admit that over 5 per cent of them will fail to vote for Harrison. LARGER THAN EXPECTED. Cleveland's Majority in North Carolina Greater Than Estimated.

MOST PEOPLE GREATLY IN DOUBT. A good sized plurality of those whe gre not thonghtless enthusinsts or professional claimers aregrently mdoubt. The managers of both parties keep up the appearance of confidence with a very good grace, and for the most part their espressions reprosent Shelr feelings. It is evident that, as Tom Reed would put it, the democratic confidence “is more intense.” The democratic managers seem to feel cock sure of New York. The republicans re- gard the state as doubtful. but they have strong hopes. That undefinable something, the “feel- ing in the air,” is favorable. If the republi- cans believed that everrthing depended on New York state, beyond peradventure, they would be less hopeful. As to the doubtful states elsewhere opinions are heard on about the same reports that are common property. At both headquarters favorable reports are received from the centers of interest, and the wish is usually the father to the conclusion. The prevailing opinions appear tobe thatafter all the fight is im in- diana, Connecticut and West Virginia, With such weather, as this day hes opened, the vote throughout this state should be large, and the republicans count that as encouraging to them. The great anxiety of the lenders is Yo know where the heavy voting is being done. CHAIRMAN CARTER'S CLAM. Chairman Carter claims to have the most positive assurances of a heavy republican vote in the state and says that the system is per- fect for getting all the republican voters to the polls. He claims & Leavy enough vote to over- come any majority the democrats can get south of the Harlem bridge. At the same time it is evident that a great part of the republican's calculation is based on the belief in Tammany treachery and the refusal of many old line dem- ocrats in many of the democratic thresholds to vote for Cleveland. RUMORS OF TAMMANY TREACHERY DISCREDITED. After midnight last mgbt there were ramors of aserious Tammany disaffection and oa ac- count of it the bettmg tendency shifted to be more favorable to the republicans, This did not hold, however. It ix so,generally believed that the reputation of T: y for honest democracy is at stake in the issue today that talk of treachery on their part is discredited. Rebance on treachery in the other party isa very flimsy and deceiving thing. As far as the re- publicans are counting on it they are apt to be disappointed. THE OUTLOOK SLIGHTLY BYTTER POR CLEVELAND, anybody kuows the eutlook is slightly better for Cleveland than for Harrison in this state. The face in the fog is at this hour still indistinct. If it were « life and death mat- Cleveland carrying the state. The democrats men decline to make any estimates. = CONNECTICUT'S QUIET ELECTION. Ap Enormous Vote Polled and Neo Troubi Experienced.
