"Saturday's registration shows decided republican gains In Omahn. Although tho registration was uuusually light, thfre was a marked Increase In the proportion the republican voters bore to the entire number of registrations loported. In 1900 the re publican votcra who registered numbered 73 per cent of the entire number. Thle year tbo ratio of the republicans to representa tives ot other parties Is 83 per cent, an Incroaso of 10 per cent," said Charles . Goss, chairman of the republican county central committee. "It Is quite evident that many of the voter who deserted tho republicans on the money Issue have to turned to the party. "Tho republican gains nrc much larger than expected. If the weather bad been fino Saturday the results of the registration would' probably bavo been even more grati fying to the republicans The work of getting out voters was greatly hindered by the s,torm. Many voters who delayed regis tration until Saturday night refused to Icavd home on account of the rain. Tho falling off In the total registration seems to be general throughout the city and tho Increase In tho ratio tho republican votcr3 bear to the entire number of voters regis tered also seems to be quite universal. "Members of tho republican county cen tral committee uro qultn encouraged over the good showing tho party has made at a tlmo when there Is but llttlo enthusiasm In political circles. There Is every lndlcu tlon that the republicans will carry Douglas county by n very handsome figure. In my opinion, every mnn on tho republican ticket will ho elected. All conditions Indicate that this la a republican year." Whnt Chnlrinnii llouell Snj. "Many democrats registered yesterday as members of other parties. The result of tho registration docs not indicate tho pro portional strength, of tho republican and democratic parties, sniu is. fc. iiowow chairman of the democratic county central committee. "In South Omaha many Ilo hcmluns who nro democrats and will vote the democratic ticket, registered ns repub llcans this fall. They nro pledged to sup-" port Koutsky for mayor and had to register as republicans so they can assist him by voting lu tho republican primaries. "Tho bad weather pluycd havoc with tho registration, but. In my opinion, both parties suffered equally ns a result of tho .storm. From reports that have come to mo through democratic workers, I know that tho party Is well organized throughout tho county nnd nm confident that It will turn up with more than Its share of the county olnces. "It Is Impossible to Judge tho party strongth from the registrations. I know of many men In Omaha who registered na re publicans but who will support tho entire democratic ticket. Then, thoro are many republicans who will support part of the democratic ticket. Tho split In tho repub llcan forces Improves the chances of tho democrats." Gcorgo A.

Following their closing rally hero Inst night and the re ceptions to Colonel James Kllbourno, dem ocratic candidate for gortrnor, and other democratic leaders today, the democrats ro claiming that they will elect rart of tbclr ticket lu Hamilton county. It Is hnrdly probable that tbls wilt affect tho ocrI legislative candidates, but It will ma terially affect the state ticket If the demo crats should secure part of the county offices here. The republicans lost both Cuyahoga aud .uens counties two years ngo, when Gov ernor Nash had a plurality of 4'.',000. Al though the result nt Cleveland nnd Toledo s likely to be very close, yet tho condi tions ate not considered so demoralizing us those were two years ago. Tho republicans conrcde that tho result Is doubtful In Franklin county, In which tho state cnpltul Is located. The democrats nro confidently clnlmlng tho county, In which both Governor Nosh nnd Colonel Kll bourno reside. There Is some opposition tn Governor Nash on account of his ap pointments and It Is claimed that tho popu larity of Colonel Kllbourne, especially among the worklngmen, will add strength to tho democratic ticket In thnt county. The republicans can loso both Cuyahoga and Franklin counties nnd still lave a majority In the legislature for senator If they carry' Hamilton and Lucas counties, ns seems most probable. Full Ticket to lie Kleuted. Tho olcctlon this year Is for a full stnto ticket and county tickets, ns well as mem bers of tho legislature. During tho last half of tho century tho democrats havo elected only four governors nnd with a single exception they were elected In years following presidential elections, which havo for that reason becomo known ns off years. The republicans have had uninterrupted control of the state ever slnco tho first election of McKlnloy ns governor, In 1881. They deny that nny so-cnlled off year con ditions exist nnd claim to bo In better con dition for success than for yenrs. Tho managers on both sides nro more reluctant about giving out estimates than usual. This Is duo to the uncertainty ns to tho shortage of the vote on both sides nnd the repub ltcnns any li prevents them from predicting as closely as usual tho extent of their plurality. Tho question ot local option has. beta actively debated, but with the brewers nnd liquor organizations on one side nnd the Ohio Anti-Saloon league on tho other side this Issue Is considered ns a standoff between tbo two leading parties. The ouly large city In which this Issue hns figured Is Columbus. It Is directed solely at mem bers of tho legislature nnd somo of the "leaguers" havo been opposing Senator Foraker's re-election by fighting candidates that would support him.

The gubernatorial campaign In Now Jertey was brought to a closo Inst night with tho lenders of both parties claiming victory for their respec two candidates. It was ono of tbe mos stubborn ever fought In tho state, the ro publicans leaving no stone unturned to hold the stnto machinery which they have controlled for nearly a decade, whllo tho democrats struggled to take It from them Doth sides nre tonight clnlmlng victory. The republicans base their hopes on two thlngn. First, the largo majority which must be wiped out by tho opposition; nnd second, on the fact that thoy think tho voters, pleased at the prosperous condition of affairs In tho state, will return a re publican governor ns nn evidence of tholr Indorsement of tho nntlonnl administration and as nn ussurnnco to the present bend of tbo administration that they havo confl denco In him. It was principally on tb latter Issue thnt the party made Its fight. The democrats claim victory chiefly on the personal popularity of tholr candldat for governor, JameH M. Seymour. He I very popular with tho working classes nnd his sticugtb Is acknowledged by his op poucnts. Ho has thrlro been elected mayor of Newark by large majorities. Roth state committees have compile tables mado up from reports from various counties of the state. Tho republicans, by their figures, bbow that Franklin Murphy, their candidate for governor, who Is also chairman ot tho committee, wllUbe elected by about 10,000 majority. Tho campaign in Philadelphia has beon unusually active, tho Interest centering I the fight for district attorney. Tho reg ulnr republicans, backed by tho city and state administration forces and Unllud States Senators Prnroue und Quay, place In nomination John Weaver for district at tomey, while the Union party and Municipal league named the preent Incumbent, P, F. Rothcrmel, n republican. A fraction of the democratic party, bow ever, refused to Join, the reformers and placed In regular nomination William Wll klns Cnrr, a democrat and postmaster of tho city during the Cleveland administra tion. It Is generally admitted, however, that tho real battle at tbo polls on Tuesday 111 bo between tho. respective adherents f Weaver nnd Rothormel. Many protnl- cnt democrats, among them ex-Governor Hobert Pattlson, have been actlvo par ticipants In the campaign In tho interest f Rothermol, The latter was elected in 1898 by a majority .of 73,000, but at that tlmo had tho support of the regular re publican forces, now opposing his ro-clcc-tlon. PASTORS PLEAD FOR PURITY ilvlce l'.mnnntrs from Nevr York I'nl- nltn ItcKarillnK Tickets Worthy of Snpport. NKW YORK, Nov. 3. The feature of tho local political campaign today was the ac- Ivo part taken In It by the pastors of the churches. Thirty-ono clergymen and two endcrs of Independent church societies nd- ertlsed themselves to speak on the Issue f the election nnd all theso clergymen took for their subjects the alleged maladminis tration of the present city offices. Rabbi Schulman urged ou his hearers the nupport of the fusion ticket because of the revelations concerning vlco In tho tcne-' ment districts. All the Proteslnnt proachors reported except tw'o talked for the fusion ticket, asserting that vice nnd unsanitary conditions existed here nnd a change was needed. , Thn exceptions -wore Dr. David O. Wyllo f tho Scottish Presbyterian church nnd Dr. Vnndewater of St. Andrew's Episcopal church, who advised their congregations to xamlnc the two tickets closely nnd vote for the best men oh them. Henry Frank ot the Metropolitan Inde pendent church advised hlB hearers to vote against bosses; whether they camn from his city or TlOgn county." Father J. Duey of St. Leo's Catholic church was hlono in those reported who spoke on the cloctlon for tbe Shepard side. Ono of tbo features of tho fusion cam paign has been the work of the women's campaign committee. A report Issued to day says this committee had distributed several hundred thousand copies In English nd German of a pamphlet purporting to be an expose of vlco In tho city. Tho democrats also had a women's campaign committee actively at work during tho canvass, but no-report ot Its labors has yet nppearcd. COLD WAVE MAY CUT IN IOWA IleniihllcanN Klttnre that the I, a rut or the Total Vote the I.artce'r Their Plurality Will lie. DBS MOINES, Nov. 3. Nn new develop ments havo arisen today In tho election outlook, beyond the severe chnngo In tbo weather, which, If continued, is likely to affect the turnout nt the polls. Chairman Spencc ot the republican com mittees estimates a total vote of about 410,000, of which, he thinks, the republican ticket will got 250,000. tho democratic ticket 75,000 and -the remainder scattering. This would give 75,000 plurality for the' repub lican ticket and any change from theso figures would be caused by the size ot tho total vote tbo larger tho total, the larger tho republican plurality. Frank Stuart, secretary of tho democratic stato committee, thinks tho republican 'cs tlmates are too large,, but refuses to glvo any figures or his own. no eays tne re publicans, have put, up their strongest men and ho thinks this fact should bring out nearly the full democratic vote.

The annual re port of Second Assistant Postmaster Gen eral William Shnllcnbergcr, mado publicto day, urges regular direct fast mall scrvlco between the Pacific coast nnd the Orient, the rc-estnbllshment of pneumatic tubo service generally nnd the closer separa tion of city mall by postal clerks of rail way trains rather than by clerks of tho mailing division after Its arrival In tho general postofllcc, Under tho Inst-namcd proposition tho en- tiro force engaged In distributing thn mall ready for the carriers would be under ono management and congestion In n postoftlco could be overcome by tho temporary de tail of railway mall clerks then off duty. Tho city distribution In postal cars has been assumed Indirectly by the inllway mall service, supplanting tho former prac tice, of having clerks from the city post nfflro go out some distance on tho road to meet Incoming trains. Constant demands aro now being mado for still closer separa tion by- having- the' railway mnll clerk or superintendent In chnrgo take tho out going mall from tho public and sou that It Is expeditiously dispatched aud also deliver tho Incoming mall properly, mado up for the carriers.

The PostofTtcc department hns no con tract for direct mnll scrvlco between tho Pacific roast nnd tho Philippines, moll being carried by government transports or by 'steamers to (long Kong nnd thence by teamers of other countries to Manila. "It now seems probable," says tho re port, "that It this government should with draw Its transports, ns may bo done at nny time, with the understanding that Its pas- cngcrs and fast freight traffic, together with tbo Increasing volumo ot Its malls. might go to the steamship company which submits tho most perfect proposal for quick nnd regular service, a favorable contract could be secured. The mall service and commercial Inter ests would be greatly advanced by fast mall steamers adhering strictly to schedule tlmo between the Pacific coast and Manila and calling at other ports nt regular In tervals, under contract with this govern ment."

The request for $500,000 appropriation for pneumatic service is renewed, ns n basis for the beginning of tbe service, which, when fully established, H Is Mated, will Involve art- annual expcddlturo of approxi mately $800,000. Tho department expresses Its opinion and that of the commission ot experts that Investigated thu subject that the outright purchase of tbe system should not be considered by congress p'end- ng a more complete test. Tho report shows that on June 30 last there were 267,357 miles of steamer route service, 183,358 ot railroad routes, 45,77:1 6f railway nostofftce car routes and almost 3,006 miles of electric and cnbln car routes.
