NOTES OP THE CAMPAIGN;
-" Cleveland will certainly car
ry this State," says Congressman
Mitchell, of Connettiout, and beis.
very good authority in the premises.
-Out of 582 employes of the
New York elevated roads 365 are
for Cleveland, 151 for Blaine, '30
for Butler, 13 for St, John and 28
non-committal.
-Roscoe Conkling's Utica resi
dence was brilliant illuminated at'
the Cleveland and Hendricks pa
rade in that city Monday evening.
Riscoe was not at home, however.
--It was an inspiring sight to I
see in the Chicago Blaine proession
squads of ten-year old boys carry
ing banners inscribed with the pa-t
triotic motto: "We shall vote as we
. shot." I
--Mo8weeney's reception in Chi- 1
cago last Saturday night was a
large and` enthusiastic one.. Even
the Republican organs admit there
were fully 20,000 men in the pro- d
cession. "
=-THE official majority of the a
Democratic candidate for Governor t
in West Virginia will not be known a
until the Legislature meets and 5
canvasses the returns. The unofi
Sial figures place the majority at li
4700. n
-The Prohibitionists cast votes e:
in every county in Ohio except one. i
Their largest vote was in Cnyaho- re
ga county. The Western Reserve a
counties cast 2405 votes; one-fourth r
of the Prohibition vote of the en- .
tire State.
--In *Connetticut,: where Tilden tc
had 2900 majority and Garfield Qi
2500, there are at least 3000 pledg
ed Independent Republicans, E- gi
Senator Eaton and. Gov. Waller 2;
sag there is no doubt Connetticut
will give her electoral .votes for
Cleveland.
-Five hundred members of the a
Brooklyn, N. Y., Young Republi
can inub have sent their names to
r Independent headquarters as op- b
" posed to Blaine and Logan and in
favor bf Cleveland and Hendricks. ro
Some of t6e leaders among these St
500 have been canvassing Brook- ea
lyn for names of men willing to'
join an an'ti-Blaine Young Repub
lican Club, and claim to have near
ly 2000 names. ho
