there, so far as ! could gather from NV
conversations with leading men of

ward the Republican ticket. our main

tion is whether the ajurity VIII be
10000 or $4,000"
In reply to the question for the rea-
son to the opposition to Judge Par
ker's speech. Mr.. Cannon said:
1T was intended to be all things to
all men, and like all efforts Of that
kind it proves to be nothing to any
man.
How about the outlook for the
House Of Representatives,"
The indications are for IL Closer vote
than in the electoral ticket. but there
is no danger If we only get the vote
out"
He expressed the opinion that the
labor complications would not affect
the situation.
1T is only question Of the division
of the profits" he said. and everybody
knows that no such question could
possibly have arisen under the last
Democratic administration, for there
were no profits"
