izer for the American Federation
of Labor for the United States,
says: at is difficult to estimate
how many votes Davis nomina-
ton will cost the Democrats, but
am satisfied from personal obser-

very large. Since the St. Louis
convention | have travelled over
many parts of Indiana, Ohio and
Illinois, and have not found a
single Democrat who belongs to
organized labor who is going to
vote for Davis"
