Look at the voting record Of New York
in recent years when conservatism and
P-0Er-ssivism was in issue, and draw
your own conclusions as TO how the
State will go this time.
The truth is" continued Mr. Lloyd,
that until very lately there has been
an impression among the progresslves
OF the country. that whatever might be
the result Of the election. the next four
years would be a period of lying fallows
of marking time, but making little
progress. But some recent developments
have served TO convince them that this
impression was erroneous. They have
seen half a dozen States revolt against
Republican Senators OF the cUnseTVa-
tive or FeaCtiOnaTy school. and IN their
places nominate men OF the progressive
stamp. What does that all mean? It
means first that. If the Presidency and
the House 20 Republican. there VIII be
no assurance OF the legislative program
being blocked by a Republican Senate.
Senate Viii Be Progressive.
There is going to be so much change
in the Senate that. even though IL re-
main Republican. it will be progressive.
The country will go ahead along the
lines the national conscience has mark
ed out. no matter whether the Senate
is Republican or not. We are going 10
carry the Presidency and the lower
house, and you will see the Senate trav-
cling along with us when 1t comes TO
the legislation on which the people have
determined That is one Of the things
which have greatly improved Demo-
cratic prospects recently. The fear OF
dividing the administration has been
largely overcome by such Senatorial re-
suits as those in Kansas. Illinois, South
Dakota, and oregon"

Hitchcock, on Return, Finds
His Old Foe Close
to Candidate.
COMPLAINTS MADE
AGAINST CHAIRMAN
Nominee Satisfied, However, With
His Management-Confer With
West Virginians Today.
By JAMES HAY, IR.

HOT SPRINGS. Va, Aug. 12-Arthur
I. Vorys has emerged from the back
ground to which National Chairman
Hitchcock relocated him last month. In
stead of being mere figurehead, he
shows up now as the closest man TO
Taft IN this campaign, not excepting
Hitchcock himself.
Mr.. Hitchcock arrived this morning
and found VOrys Installed on TAFT 3
left Furthermore, he found that Mr.
Taft had gone over all his correspond
ence with Vorys, had let Vorys into
every secret of the campaign. and was
consulting with him on every phase
and problem of the work.
with the exception OF few and short
absences when ne Will be in ONO.
VOrvs will be with Taft constantly until
election day. Hitchcock, on the OtheT
hand, will be in New York and Chicago,
except when his presence Is required
here for special conferences.
This does not mean That Hltchcock
real power has been diminished, nor
does Il mean that there is any friction
between Hitchcock and TAFT; but u
does mean that Mr., Taft has MADE up
his mind to take an active part IN tne
real work of the campaign; tnat ne lel-
the need of having an adviser, ana tlat
he has settled on Arthur J. Forys as
the man who can give him what ne
needs.
Many Complaints.
As was TO be expected. there have
been brought TO the candidate numerous
complaints against Hitchcock and many
criticisms of the way he is running the
marty organization. Senator Scott, who
was ignored in the makeup OF the
working organization, has made par
ticuIarly strenuous kick. cana there
nave been similar outbursts from many
of the "old guard" who do not thihk
they have been properly recognized
But TO those Mr.. TAFT mas turned
deaf ear. de is satisfied with the 20
lfticaI work of Mr.. Hitchcock, and the
national chairman is making good on
the lob right along. With Hitchcock
doing the work IN Chicago and Ne"
YORK and Vorys acting as chief coun-
eaIOr' Mr. Taft feels that the nghJ VIII

piles and with the best weapons avail

LINCOLN, Aug. 12.-After a long con-
ference between Mr.. Bryan, Mr.. Kern,
and members OF the executive and text
book committees. Il was decided that
Mr.. Bryan shall make an active speak
ing campaign, and make most OF It
east OF the Mississippi river.
The reports brought TO Mr.. Bryan
and Mr.. Kern BY the committeeman
convinced them that Illinois. Indiana.
Ohio, and New York are debatabIe
sround. Therefore, it was decided that
Mr.. Bryan shall devote most Of his
speaking time to those States.
As a result OF the conference Mr.
Bryan gave up all idea OF going into
the Far Wtst. He was told that the
inter-mountain States are certain to go
for the Democratic ticket, and that
there was no use IN his going there. On
the Pacific slope the only State where
the Democrats have much chance is
California. Mr.. Bryan has been urged
TO go there, but the reports brought -
him indicate that California is in p-ctty
much the same shape as the Eve inter-
mountain States.
All his informants impressed on him
the necessity Of making his main fight
in Ohio. Indiana, Illinois, and New
York. and trusting to his lieutenants IN
the Far West. This does not mean that
Mr. Bryan will make no Western
speeches, but does mean that his main
endeavors Will be concentrated on the
East.
Length Of Tour Undecided.
Neither the dates for the speeches nor
the length OF time Mr.. Bryen IS 20
spend in any one State have been de-
termined.
Mr.. Macks reports from New York
were exceedingly strong. He gave Mr..
Bryan 10 understand that whatever
might be the impression on Broadway
and on Wall Street, there was a ire
mendous current for him up the State.
and even N New York city outside Of
the two thoroughfares mentioned. The
reports OF Mr.. Lamb and Mr.. Kern
about Indiana made that State the best
fighting ground the Democrats have
got.
Chairman Mack said:
while I am here principally TO at
tend the notification ceremonies, I have
discussed with Mr.. Bryan and win again
discuss Tie general plan OF campaign.
1t has been my fixed purpose in this
campaign 20 deal with actual facts and
these / have communicated to Mr.
Bryan, telling him that conditions as
I have found them and as they have
been reported 20 me by national com
m!tteemen and well-known Democrats
all point to his election 10 the Presi-
dency.

Hold Conference.

This afternoon Hitchcock, Vorys, and
Taft will hold q conference with the
West Virginians. There has been some
talk Of an effort being made TO induce
Scherr to quit running against Swisher
for the governorship, but there is not
much real hope that Scherr can be Put
out Of the way.
The West Virginians want money and

they are convinced they will have a
