Des Moines. Oct 49, Senator Allison
was in town yesterday on his way to fill
a speaking appointment. He said he
had been In nearly all parts OF the state
since the campaign opened and was
we'll pleased with the prospects.
II have found that the people ARE
/ greatly interested In the discussion of
the issues Of the campaign, said he. II
can say that have never before had as
good meetings in the matter Of attend
ance and apparent interest in any off
year campaign that can remember in
Iowa. The crowds who attend are in
nearly every case much larger than an
ticipated by the local committees, and
in some instances we have had to
change the location of the meetings to
/ larger halls. Such was the case at the
meeting recently in Centerville.
II have no means of estimating what
our majority will be except from what
1 can gather from the interest mani
tested at the meetings, but it seems to
me that we may expect that Governor
Shaw will have a larger majority over
1 White this fall than he had two years
ago. AT that time he had 29,S00, and 1
will be much disappointed if he does not
/ get over 10000 this fall"
| The senator was asked his opinion of
i the probable result of the attempts be-
ing made by the democrats to defeat
i several of the republican nominees for
4 the legislature.
a Il am aware that they are making
strong efforts in that direction" he
said. but l do not believe many of the
districts that are now represented by
Il Republicans can be captured, while, on
the other hand, / believe we will elect
Republicans in some of the districts
that now have democratic members.
There is, however. an attempt being
made in certain districts to create a dis
affection among the laboring men, es-
: pecially where there is large contin-
gent of organized labor. l have been
in several of the cities where these at
tempts are being made, and the leading
Republicans there tell me they do not
believe the scheme will be successful.
They hope TO hold the republican labor
