If the Legislature is Democratic and the gubernatorial election very close, as is probable, many fear a desperate contest for the executive chair, such as West Virginia has already wit- nessed once before in its history. There can be no doubt that the fate of the Republican ticket this year rests upon the vote ,in_ ten industrial counties which turned Republican in 189%. Marked indifference to the election, lack of inter- Boy’s Top Coats—of Covert with a velvet collar Ages 3 to 10 years - 33,50 dustrial enterprises or any considerable increase of Democratic bellef among the people of these ten counties would make the State Democratic. West Virginia's density of population is | determined by the operation of raflroads, coal mines and industrial concerns, and wherever a McKinley majority appears, especlally where previous elections show Democratic pluralities, it will be found they arise from an increased vote of rail- road men, mineworkers or millmen. In 1896 the rallroad managers, coal operators and mill managers were openly working for the interests of the Republican candi- date for President. This year, while nearly all of them favor the election of the Republican ticket, they have not as yet shown any great energy in increasing the vote in this State for the Republican Electors. Industrial conditions In West Virginia are excellent. There conditions are di- rectly in favor-®{ the Republican national ticket, as the vote of the coal districts is naturally Republican and the miners openly express thelr fears of the possible resulis of a change of national politics. Imperialism and trusts are the issues discussed. The first named does not arouse ‘' much enthusiasm.

There will be in New York State a galn of eight for the Republicans if the con- ditions on election day are the same as are indicated now.

The South, as usual, is almost solid for the Democratic candidate. The States of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Caro- lina and Texas will be represented by Democrats entirely. From Kentucky there are likely to be five Republicans, from Missouri one and from West Virginia three, from Mary- land four and from Tennessee two. The doubtful districts are one in Vir- ginia, the Ninth; two_in Missouri and one in Maryland. e Of the 117 solid South representatives ninety-eight will be Democrats and four- teen Republicans, and the battle has yet to be fought out in five doubtful districts. The States from which Democrats will have no representation are Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho and Iowa, probably Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming. In the Doubtful Districts. Of the doubtful districts, there are four in Illinois, where the Democrats are making a great effort to gain representa- tives in Congress. The doubtful Illinois districts are the Second, now represented by Willlam Lorimer, who i{s a leader of the TAnner faction; the Sixth, which is now represented by Henry S. Boutelle.

To Republicans certain control of the Senate depends upon the drift to McKin- ley continuing as it is at present. Should there be a landslide to Bryan the Senate could scarcely be controlled by the Demo- crats, as the House of Representatives vzould be, but it would be dangerously closge. There are elghty-six members now in the Senate, and four vacancies are—one each in Delaware, Montana, Pennsylvania and Utah. There are at present in the Senate 50 Republicans, 26 Democrats, 5 Silver Republicans, 4 Populists and 1 in- dependent. In these totals Wellington of Maryland, who has abandoned the Re- publican party, is counted as a Democrat. Senator Stewart of Nevada, who Is called a Silver Republican, is actively supporting McKinley and is classed as a Republican in the next Senate. Senator Kyle, who is classed as an In- dependent, is practically a Republican, and Senator Jones of Nevada it is be- | Ueved will be in the Republican column next t,.hm In the classification made up by The Call the Btaté of Kansas is given to the Republicans. The Republicans are much more certaln of electing their electoral ticket than of carrying the Legislature, because the districting of the State is egainst them. Should they meet with re- verses they are likely to lose the Legis- lature. In Pennsylvania the Republicans are credited with being able to elect a Senator. The Quay fight, however, com- the anti-Quay Republicans and Democrats have formed a fusion in many districts. The outcome of the election may be a Legislature, which would Prosperity Is Certain of Having a Working Majority. result in Pennsylvania having a vacant seat In the Senate. Quay is not out of the wocds by any means and the result is very much in doubt. Two seats are in doubt in the States of Delaware, Montana and Nebraska. In Delaware there is a vacancy, and Senator Kenny’s term expires. There Is a flerce fight in the Republican party ove* | Addicks and while there Is one set of Republican Legislgtive candidates in Newcastle County, there are two sets of Republican candidates in the other two countles. Unless one of these tickets is withdrawn the Democrats are likely to control the Legislature. The Fight in Montana. In Montana, where Senator Clark’s seat is vacant and Senator Carter's term ex- pires, there is"a very fierce contest be- tween the Clark and Daly factions. No one can tell-until after the election wheth- er the Republicans will control the Leg- islature or not, probably not. The Republicans of Nepraska claim to have some chance of winning the Legis- lature even if Bryan carries the State. | Should Bryan be defeated and the Legis- lature be carried by the fusionists, the Senators elected would probably be Bryan and Allen. The fusionists have recently been making great efforts to carry the 100,000 MAJORITY 'FOR McKINLEY NEW YORK, Oct. 20.

ODELL JR., Chairman Republican State Com- mittee, | @-I-imileferfefordefeloede ofe oo eferfe Legislature, so as to give Mr. Bryan a seat in the Senate in case he is not elected. Wyoming is almost certain to return Senator Warren, and there is little doubt of the Republicans controlling the Legis- latures in Michigan and Minnesota, whils in New Hampshite, New Jersey and Rhode Island they are certain to do so. NEW JERSEY. McKinley's Plurality Is Figured Out at Abuot 44,000. McKinley's plurality in New Jersey will be about 44,000. This estimate is based on information obtained from about a hun- dred different persons of whorme inquiries were made in every county in the State, including political leaders, chairmen and secretaries of State and county political organizations of both great parties, min- isters of the Gospel of many denomina- tions, newspaper men, manufacturers, working men and business men. The Republicans are full of boundless confidence, and the tide is all their way. Their factional fights in a few counties over local offices have abated, and will apparently have little effect. They have plenty of money. The Democrats feel the de?‘ressmn incident to waging a hopeless fight, and their State leadership fails to inspire confidence. Few Democrats who refused to vote for Bryan four years ago will vote for him this time. Some Demo- crats who voted for McKinley four years ago will stay away from the polls this year altogether. Many of the for McKinley this time. Some will not for Bryan. the canteen question cuts no fiugre in the canvass. It is not talked about or consid- ered. It is not an issue. cialism and militarism important factors in the campaign. Many persong were op- osed to the acquisition of the Pfinlhpplnes. ut comparatively few feel disposed to carry this o?pnsll(on to the extent of giv- ing up and lying down. Nor do they be- lieve that a Bryan administration could bring about a more patriotic and satisfac- tory solution of the problem than can the present administration. There is much the same feeling as to trusts. The people do not_belleve that this is a party ques- tion. The main question considered and taken seriously by the voters of New Jer- sey is the danger in Mr. Bryan's election and industrial commercial and financial ~disaster upon the country. The dread of this §s at the bottom of the distrust .of and opposition to Bryanism. There is a deep and wide- feeling among the Democrats of this State that there can be no hope for the party until it is rid of Bryanism once and for all, and many of them have re- solved to help bury it out of sight this year. SOUTH DAKOTA. Probabilities Seem to Be in Favor of the Republicans. South DaKota will be very close,” with the probabilities in favor of the Republi- cans electing the two Representatives at large, the electoral and State tickets. IN GREATER GOTHAM.: Estimates Made by Croker Will Be Very Much Reduced. New York County—Bryan's plurality, 80,000; Stanchfleld’s plurality, 35,000. Richard Croker has declared that Greater New York will give Bryan a plu- rality of 100,000, and he has assured Mr. Bryan himself that he will have 80,000 more votes than McKinley in the city. The Democrats expect this plurality to be rolled up in_the boroughs of Manhattan and Bronx. In view of the large majority which they expect from the interior of the State the Republican campalgn managers are disposed to be liberal to the city Dem- ocrats. Thelr estimate of the Tammany lurality of New York County is between 50,000 ana 50,000, It Is probable that boch the Democrats and Republicans have set their figures too high. Collati the results from registration with all the other facts bearing upon the drift of sen- timent and giving Tammany the benefit of every doubt, it does not seem probable that its plurality for Bryan in the county of New York will exceed 30,000. y the postal-card poll made by the Herald a plurality for Brvan of only 15,000 was indicated. hile the Herald based no predictions of its own upon the re- sponses which it received from the dis- tricts canvassed in New York County, it Fave the results as the best possible indic cation obtainable before the ballots are actually cast of how the election is going. Though the popular drift has never failed to foreshadow itself when the test of the postal-card canvass has been applied, ex- erlence has shown that this drift is like- Zy to tinue until election day.
