Tlio election in Ohio to-moriovv Is for goveinor and other Mate ofllcers and for members of the leglstaluio which shall elect a successor to Hon. John Sherman , United States senator. Tills gives a peculiar Inleiest to the election of members of the leglslatme. Hetmns which pin port to be based upon a polling of Iho state by the democratic and republican committees , give widely different results. Tlie democratic es timate elects Hoadlcy by fiom 20.030 to 2oOJO plurality. The republic in estimate c'lects r'oiaker for goveinor by from 15.001 to ayiou pluititit.v. Estimates on tlie legislature by both patties make the icsult close , al though both claim a majority. The clement ot uneeitaiiity In the election of governor is tlie prohibition vote.

Sluch inteiest is being excited in tills city over a decision lendeied hero to-day by Judge Prendeigast in the county comt , giving the people ol Chicago an opportunity to vote on tlio election law en acted by the last legislatuie. Tlio law has tlio local option teat lire and must be adopted by the people of the city or village de-iiing Its benefit before It becomes opeiatlve. Doubt has been cxpicssed as to the constitutionality of the law , nnd with a view to testing tin t question the county comt foimally declined to older Ids clerk to piovldo tlio blanks provided by the law for its submis sion. Upon such refusal an application was made to the .supremo mint for a mandamus compelling Judge Pieudcigast to issue the older. Me.mwllo a vacancy was made In the supieme comt by the death ot Judge Dickey That left an even number of judges ami they dividedevenlj on the petition , three holding the law to be constitutional and tluee holding It to be unconstitutional.
