CAMPAIGN IN ARKANSAS,
Closed Last Night-The State Election to Occur To-Morrow.

LITTLE ROCK, Sept. 3.-The State campaign closed to-night and the election will occur on Monday. A full set of State and county officers are to be elected as well as members of the Legislature.

But little interest is centered in the general result, it being conceded that the Democrats will have an ample majority over the combination on State officers, and that the ticket headed by Governor Jones will be elected.

While the success of their State ticket was never in danger, the Democrats have conducted a very vigorous campaign, mainly for the purpose of keeping up representation in their conventions. The Populist and Republican candidates for Governor have also canvassed the State, and to-night a joint debate was held in this city before a large audience.
