FIRST VOTERS OF
WEST FOR WILSON


New York, oct. S.-Morgan L. Da-
ves. western manager of the Young
Mems Woodrow Wilson movement,
who is in New York to confer with
dudley Field Malone, the national
manager whom asked with reference
to conditions in the west, said:
There are no defections from the
younger democrats, and they are all
enthusiastically behind Woodrow
Wilson. This is especially true of
the Younger Polish and Italian men,
who resent appeals by misrepresen-
tation to arouse prejudice against
Wilson. At their own expense these
young men have taken headquarters
in Chicago and are supported by the
two Polish and italian daily papers of
the west.
The most complete poll we have
made is amond the first voters. We
secure these from the precinct COM
mitteemen, and then have the Young
Mems Wilson organization in each
county take the poll. In Illinois, in
81 out OF 101 counties outside of Chi
cago in which a poll of first voters
has been taken, they show 60 per cent
of first voters for Wilson. OF the
remaining 40 per cent 20 per cent
are for Roosevelt, and the remaining
either refuse to express a preference
| or are for Taft. In seeking the rea-
son for this surprising preference for
Wilson among first voters l found
that the explanation in part, lay in
an attitude among them that Roose-
welt and Taft represented former ad-
minlstrations. in the selection of
which they had no part.
I'm Chicago a number of polls
! have been taken by the various the
aters and given some publicity. These
| polls show Wilson in the lead, with
Roosevelt second and Taft polling
about one-third as many votes as
Roosevelt. In these theater polls sc
per cent of the voters have been wo-
men. The active part which womer
took in the third term convention a
Chicago would indicate that vote wen
for Roosevelt in the theater poll
"In Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri
and Arkansas the younger men sa!
that a campaign in those states fo
Wilson is not necessary and are de
voting their time to a correspondence
campaign into the northern states.
"In the Pacific coast states the in
dications are that Roosevelt is run
ming second, with Taft considerabl
in the rear.
"In the middle western states lik
. the Dakotas Iowa, Indiana and Obi
, Wilson is well in the lead, Roosevelt
, second and Taft third"

WILSON SHOULD
CARRY ILLINOIS
(By Paul FondouD


Chicago, Hl.-Political prophets
who write pieces for the paper have a
Way Of tossing states back and forth
from one party column to another,
Arut they usually hedge their prophe-
oies about by saving Ifs" and how
eyers." In this campaign all political
signs fail and we must take facts as
We find them and judge them not by
the traditions of the past, but in the
light of conditions uneXampled in the
history of American politics.
This, too, in states where republic
an majorities are a matter of inher-
itance For example, Illinois. I have
been pretty well over this state and
men Of all classes of life and every
field of endeavor have been quizzd
in the search for data, on which an
intelligent. fair and unprejudiced sur
vey of the present situation might be
predicted.
Wilson should carry Illinois, This
Is a surprising statement to make
perhaps, because when one recollectS
that this state has given its electora
vote consistently to the republican
party since 1892 In that year Grover
Cleveland broke through the grea
wall and captured the state for the
democracy No democrat has accom-
plished the feat since that time.
But with all the tangle the presen
campaign presents, the soon tn
country recognizes that which tn
signs portend the more comforting
will be to everyone in the final analy
sis. Whether one is an out-and-ou
admirer of Woodrow Wilson or not
the fact remains that he is the on
big candidate in the field.
Roosevelt has the enthusiasm. Tai
has the organization. Wilson ha
both. and more, for Roosevelt canno
organize his enthusiasm nor can Taf
enthuse his organization. 1t has bee
in the air for weeks, this Wilson sen
siment, but it has never reached tn
strength Of the past few days. TIL
democratic cause is gaining laily il
most unexpected places as we'll as /

charge to the dairymen will be $3.50

Ihe Exodus from the Farm

Notwithstanding all that has been
sasd and written Of the possibilities
of the farm, tbe exodus to the city
.ssousin1es. 1t is difficult TO accoun,
tsr &C. There is life of absolute
freedom open to every man on the
farm- II is the most independent
baslness a man can follow. The
eutsre country is depending on the
farmer. Without the products OF
the farm we would starve.
The nbst census, which has just
been compiled, brings out several
important facts. While the popu'
IatiOn Of the United States as 8
whole increased twenty.one pen
ssut- the rural population increased
-oniy eleven per cent. The inereas'
IN the number Of farms during th'
period was little over ten per cent

Pocahontas star herald., 1912-11-08

1t is rather significant that the
decrease, or, more properly speak
ing, the slow increase, in the rural
population throughout the large
areas of the United States is in no
sense due to the lack Of agricultural
prosperity. On the contrary, in
most of the states showing only a
slight increase in population, there
has been a remarkable increase IN
the value of farm property. In
spite of this splendid financial show
ing and apparent prosperity in the
country, boys and girls are leaving
the farm. The slight increase IN
the rural population is due almost
entirely to emigration from the old
world. 1t is due to foreigners set
tling in this country that the farms
are recruited. After they have lived
here for a number of years their
children begin to look toward the
city.
The farmer is the savior of our
country and the farm means our
future salvation.-Commercial-Ap
peal.
Pocahontas star herald., 1912-11-08

the farm decreased 1902 IN 1900 TO
1851 in 1910. In 1850 -the aver.
age size of the farm was 205.5
acres. 1t is also interesting to note
that while in the production of ce-
reals the increase Of the average was
3 IS per cent, and while tie increase
in the number OF bushels raised was,
during the same period, IL per
cent, the increase in value of this
product was 1915 per cent.
Upon the face of this it is con.
clusively shown that the farmer is
prospering. lie is doing better
than his city brothers, who have to
pay the price demanded for his
products. 1t is steadfastly claimed,
however, that while the crops have
increased so steadily in value, the
farmer mas not received his just
share of the product of the soil. 1t
Is further alleged that the major
part goes TO the middieman. Mean.
while, the price of land has gone up
and naturally the farmers taxes
have increased.

CHICAGO, March s.--An estimate

houses were advising caution on the
bear side late today. ana Ut the same
time they advised customers to take
on lines of any of the grains at
