DEMOCRATIC CONFIDENCE DESTROYED Congressional Delegation Likely to Retain Present Complexion. DR. JAMIESON’S ESTIMATE Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. CHICAGO, Cctober 26, 1898. A week ago Illinois was in the doubtful column. Now she is considered safely re- publican. History is repeating itself. In 1896 Hlinois considered lost or doubtful by the republicans up to October 9, the day of the greatest political parade Chicago has ever known. The next day republican m: nagers claimed the state by the greatest majority 1t had ever given. Their predic- tion came true, and McKinley carried the state by 141,000. Before the final day of registration re- publican mangers in every section of the state were in the dumps most dreadfully. While they again predicted defeat for the party, they set to work to re out the worl nd to round up every voter in the state who had not regisiered. The resuit exceeded their fondest hopes.

Republicans Are Hopefal of Only Los- ing One of the Districts They Now Hold. Special Correspendence of The Evening Star. LOUISVILLE, Ky., October 28, 1898, Next week will mark the close of the con- sional campaigns in eleven Kentucky ts. While the contests hive been waged aggressively on both sides, the in- terest in all except two districts hes lagged until this week, and the actual time in which the campaigning has been going on has been shorter than ever known in state political circles. The democrats are in tir ddle from Lit- tle Clark river, in the first district, Stinking creek, in the eleventh also be admitted that the republ not allowing any grass to grow unde feet, while the populists seem to be mak- ing a death struggle to prevent the entire disintegration of thetr little band. Kentucky is now represented in Con- gress by seven democrats and four repub- licans. In the election to be held on the Sth of next month the democrats are cer- tain, so their managers claim today, of re-electing all th and feel reasonably sure of gaining at least two and perhaps three more members in the state. The re- publicans will surely return one of their party—from the eleventh—and their state campaign manager states it as his belief that his party will probably elect its can- tes in the ninth and tenth, he coming election will witness the first fruit of the last democratic legislature, which passed the Goebel election bill, pla ing in the hands of three democrats the election machinery of the state. At Jeast, this will result if the republican court of appeals does pot confuse the situation to- morrow or Monday by declaring the law unconstitutional. The test case for learn- ing the fate of the all-important Goebel law was sent up from the Winchester cir- cuit court Jast week, in which court it was held to be constitutional. The ar- guments in appellate court are being made tcday, and the decision 1s expected not later than next Monday. The Several Districts. In the first district Congressman Wheel- er, democrat, and “Bud" Reeves, populist, the republicans having refused to nomi- nate, are running a clipping race. The district has always been largely demo- cratic, and it is regarded as practically certain that Wheeler will be returned to Congress. The same can be said with almost equal certainty of the third and fourth districts, in which Congressmen John 8. Rhea and David H. Smith are the democratic candi- dates for re-election. In the third Dr. Creel, repubiican, opposes Rhea, and in «the fourth Col. Blanford, ex-speaker of the republican housee, is Smith’s opponent. In the second distriet there was a bolting tion in the republican convention, W. T. ‘owler being nominated. by one wing and Judge Jolly by the other. Both are run- ning, ard much party bitterness has been engendered. Henry D. Allen, the demo- cratic nominee, is’*the betting favorite with big odds offered. © In the fifth, or Louisville district, Repre- sentative Evans, Tepublican, was renom!- nated, but the convention which did this stirred up the opposition of the Todd re- publican faction, which nominated J. H. Hambrick, a Todd leader, who is running the race through. Oscar Turner, the demo- cratic candidate, has not gone much on speaking, but has made a lively “still hunt” for the general vote. His managers assert thelr belief that he will defeat his opponents, but the Evans men are still confident. In the sixth Col. Al. Berry, the “Tall Poplar of the Licking,"’ has been nominat- ed for the sixth time by the democrats,and as his opponent, Colonel Donaldson, a well- known republican, has never accepted the nomination, it would seem that Berry will have a walkover. In the seventh Representative Settle has about the same picnic to enjoy. Mr. E. J Harden, the republican candidate, from Mr. Settle’s home county, Owen, was only named last week. He Js'a good man, but has no time in which to canvass the dis- trict. Still Hant Tactics, In the eighth Representative Davison, re- publican, is again ‘rying “still hunt” tac- a tics on his opponent, who Is Judge Geo. G. Gilbert of Shelby county. This is a district which the democrats are fully counting on “redeeming.” In the ninth there is doubt as to the re- sult, Judge Mordecai Williams, democrat, and Representative Pugh, republican, be- ing political giants. This will be a nip and tuck finish. In the tenth the democrats renominated Col. T, Y. Fitzpatrick, while W. J. Seitz, a Morgan county law is the republican choice. Both have been covering every inch of ground in their cany of the dis- ct, and their race will also be won by an . Both sides seem confident. eleventh district will as certainly elect Judge Vincent Boreing of London, the republican nominee, as the sun rises on the morning of the election. The enth is the rock-ribbed Gibraltar of the state in the republican column, and er fails. Judge Tye of Knox éounty the nocratic candidate, and run a good ace. Jno. D. White, now an independent republican, but better known by his former political nom de - ume of “the Crested Jayhawker,” is the third candidate, and he, too, has put up a stiff fight. — 2 WEST VIRGINIA. Probabilities Favor the Republicans in the Coming Election. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. WHEELING, W. Va., October 27, 1898. The West Virginia legislature of 1896-97 had 41 republicans, 28 democrats and two greenback democrats in the house of dele- gates, and 22 republicans and four demo- crats in the senate, a plurality for the re- publicans on joint ballot of 31. Of the four democrats in the senate only two, Messrs. Baker and Dotson, are hold- overs, and of the 22 republicans 10 are hold- overs, Messrs. Cole, Fast, Garrett, Getzen- danner, Huges, Marshall, Mathews, Mc- Neil, Pierson and White. There are there- fore 14 senators to elect. It is not probable that the democrats will elect more than five of them, leaving the republicans in control of the senate by a majority of 19 to 4q democratic managers have been. insis that Messrs. Getzendanner and Pierson have forfeited their offices as senators by epting commissions from Gov. Atkin as captains in the 2d West Virginia R ment, now at Camp Meade, and that the state constitution does not permit of a sen- ator holding more than one office at a time. It i8 said to be the intention of Messrs. Pierson and Getzendanner to resign their captaincies before the legislature meets. Should there still be contention the republi- can majority will do the rest in the matter of passing on qualification for membership. As to the house of delegates, there arc no hold-over members, and there are 71 men to be chosen. There is no reason to su pose that there will be a material chang: from 1896 in the number of republicans elected. Should the conditions be reversed from 1896 and the democrats rule by 41 to 30, the legislature would still be republican on joint ballot. We think it altoge probable, therefore, that Charles a ner will be succeeded by a republican. Who that republican will be is very prob- lematical. Some of the hold-over senators are favorable to Gov. G. W. Atkinson, who has been making an active canvass. Inter- nal Revenue Commissioner N. B. Scott has not been neglecting his chances, and it is believed has the personal support of Sena- tor Elkins, who has been in the state for some weeks making speeches and visiting places where the legislative ticket needs help. Charles T. Caldwell of Parkersburg has also announced himself as a candidate. It is thought that Atkinson and Scott will throw their forces to the one that is strong- est of the two in case there is a ground sweil for Judge Nathan Goff of the United States district court, which is not as remote a pos- sibility as many would like to believe. Judge Goff’s position has been very an- noying to the republican leaders. He has assured them that he does not want the place and will not be a candidate unless certain conditions arise. Those intangible “conditions” cause the trouble. Should the judge enter the field after Atkinson and Scott have done the work they have, and they haveboth been willing to withdraw in his favor, there will be wailing and gnash- ing of teeth. ‘udge Goff is the idol of the rank and file of the party, which he has led through good and evil report in years gone by. They think he was robbed of the governorship, to which they elected him, and, without any disparagement to Messrs. Atkinson and Scott, that he would reflect more honor on the state than any one named for the place. If the unexpected happens and a demo- cratic legislature is elected, John T. Mc- Graw, nominee for Congress, at present making a lively campaign against Repre- sentative Dayton in the second district, will probably be the choice of his party. Ex- Senator Henry G. Davis has taken the stump, but is believed to be grooming him- self for the democratic gubernatorial nom- ‘nation ln 19n¢, A QUESTION OF MAJORITY The Wisconsin Democrats Concede Legisla- ture to the Republicans, If Latter Do as Well as in 1897 They Will Have Votes to Spare. Special Correspen MILWAUKEE, October 27, 1898. There $s nothing dovbtful in regard to the legislative election in Wisccnsin except the size of the Republican majority in both houses and on joint ballot. The Democrats concede that the legislature will be safely republican, and that a republican senator will succeed John L Mitchell, There are 133 members in the Wi legislature—thirty-three In the se an even hundred in the assembly. The senate of 1897 was composed of 29 re- publicans and 4 demccrats; the assembly was composed of 91 republicans, 8 demo- crats and 1 fusionist. As only half of the ate is chosen every two years, there 1 be 16 republicans and 1 democratic holdover, leaving 16 to elect. Of the mem- bers whose terms expired with the last ses- sion, 13 were republic 3 democrats. Of the senatorial districts which went re- consin and ir publican in 1894, and which are to elect new senators this year, only two were car- ried by pluralities less than 1,000, and eight were carried by pluralities of over It is estimated that the republicans districts this on this estimate, the republicans will have to elect forty-one {assemblymen out of 100 to have a ma- jority on joint ballot. O£ the 100 m- ty districts, eighty-three went republic en governor in 184, fifty-four by plu lies greater than 500, If the republicans do as well this year as they did in 1804 they will have thirteen to spare on joint ballot. Comparisons are made with ISM because the conditions are very much the same this year as they were four years ago, but the great landslide of gives the republicans a bit of pr ige to their advantage. At the head- quarters of the republican state central committee absolute confidence reigns as to the outcome of the legislative election. ~~ All Washington an Audience.
