times The opposition members were then
elected and the proceedings have been
carried on since solely by members Of the

Il confidently expect handsome plu-

AS the campaign has developed in this
state there has been d steady growth of
sentiment in favor of President Taft.
That sentiment Is growing very rapidly
now, and ii is not confined to any one or
two sections of the state. 1t is general
and it is strongest in the cities where
interests are the main
business. But it is also getting stronger
in the country towns.
I'VE look for victory for Taft for these
reasons principally, but also because the
pro- Roosevelt sentiment is on the wane.
y host of recent Roosevelt men have left
the bull moose ranks because they realize
that TO vote that ticket would enhance
the chances of Gov. Wilson. They have

James NJ. Cox. candidate for Governor
of Ohio, sent the following message to
national democratic headquarters today:
I'm my campaign which has taken in
practically every county in this state, my
observations lead me to believe that Gov.
Wilson vii carry Ohio by 10000. The
people believe that he is genuinely repre-
sentative of the spirit of the day, that he
has correctly analyzed conditions, and
that his theories of government are looked
upon by the people as the proper rem
edy.
His campaign, which has been intelli-
gent and forceful, has been maintained
on a clean base and he has made Won
derful impression in this state. l am led
to believe that the manifestation Of pub
lie approval Is due in large degree to the
belief that the problem is one of race de-
velopment, that the human unit must
have greater consideration under the law
than the property unit, and that while
industrial conditions must be made more
wholesome another fold of activity lies
in the direction of great human uplift
work.
