REPUBLICAN, HOPE IN VIRGINIA
Party Leaders Think They See Good Chance to
Carry the State.
IFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]


Washington. Aug. 27-Republican leaders In Vir-
gnia seriously believe that they have a good
chance 20 carry that state and elect their candidate
for Governor this fall Publicly they announce that
the election is already theirs. but these announce
ments always the programme. and little
weight attaches TO them. But in private these
leaders express the belief that the Democratic
ganizaton Is badly divided result OF the
primary election. and that they have a good chance
TO gain control OF the stats.

since that time. He served In the army during the

There is no doubt that many OF the Democrats will
remain away from the polls. and. In my Judgment.
the Republicans will poll their full strength. The
normal Democratic majority ranges from 5000 TO

this will be cut below 5000. I have strong hopes
that Republican victory may result. We expect

arriving at the same conclusion. Why should we
have chemicals in foods il by processes of
sterilization and refrigerator they can be done
without? While the government through the
referee board has been carrying out its expert
ments to show that benzoate is not harmful, a
great many manufacturers have been experiment
ing to show that food be put up without cheni-
cal. at ALL
