FIRST DISTRICT IS NOT IN DOUBT SONOMA, Nov, 4.—To the Editor of The Call: President McKinley will carry the First Congressional District by 2500 majority. He will go to San Franeisco with 15,000 ma- jority. Everywhere in the ¥irst District the people are happy, contented and pros- perous. Their industries are protected and stimulated and they are not In the temper to change. The wool, dairy, lum- ber, wine, pounltry and other interests are prosperous, and a contrast with conditions un- der a tariff for revenue points to the cause and fillustrates the difference.

While ths ast census gave Cincinnat! a population of 325,000, its registration is 5135, and a citizens’ committee has been organizing to-day for systematic work with detec- tives for arrests on Tuesday. It is claimed also that colonizations have been made in some of the close Congressional dis- tricts. The Republicans are trying to gain a | Congressman in the Third District. This is ome of the districts in which charges of fraud are made on both sides. In the Flifteenth District the election of Con- gressman Van Voorhees (R.) is generally | conceded. On account of the zctive wori of Mayor Jones of Toledo there is some talk of N. D.
