NEW FACTOR IN CAMPAIGN

The situation so far rs any likely pre-

chaotic. The Progressive party has
been largely responsible for Introduce

certainty. This party has put the wo-
man suffrage Issue into more con-

It would be impossible to guess Alright
which wny this big vote will 90 in
consequence Of the many recent eff.
forts 70 court the favor of the sulfra

the senatorial fight. as Il change of

Progressive party has been a disturb.
