have insisted that most of the L.aF,oi-
 lette Progressiveg will vote for the l Democratic candidate. The only thing that~seens certain is that the fight in this State is between the. Pro- gressives and Democratic candidates with the President certain to run Minnesota, the Dakotas, Kansas, Missouri. Nebraska, Colorado, Mon. tana, Idaho. and Nevadasare all claim ed by the Democrats. who say that the Progressfves there will split the regular Republican vote and that the
 at tbaJ % qea E vote for tbsE a,son g q5s Roosevelt men will carry the State and thus disrupt the regular Repub- lican organize tion- So far as Ne. braska is concerned, there is much interest in whether Bryan can let his mantle fall on the shoulders of Gov ernor Wilson. At Baltimore the Ne- to Wilson and to make his promise good he, has criss crossed the State and made personal appeal to the farmers to vote for Wilson. The debatable ground and the problem Is just how strong the Roosevelt sentf--
 ment is-somethtng that it will re- ternine.
 Interest on the Pacific Coast will center on California. The Taft Re- cause of the action of the election officials in refusing to place their can QlOaCeS TOT elecCOF on the DallOt. con- sequently many of the Taft men have openly announced. that they will vote for Wilson. Governor Johnson has not devoted much time to his home State, believing that his personal pop ularity will be sufficient to carry the State for the Progressive ticket. He had planned to come back to Ca1ifoI-.
 nit some weeks ago, but the shooting
 of Roosevelt kept uf1im on sthe stump
 in the East and he, has left the man,
 agement of the campaign to the reg ular party managers. The Progres- sives claim that they will carry the State by between 5O,OOO and 100, 900, and insist that most of the women
 will vote for Roosevelt and Johnson.
 Despite this claim the Democratic
 managers say that their confidential
 authorities in refusing to permit the
 Taft electors a place on the ballot has
 injured the Roosevelt chances and
 they say they will carry the State by
 more than 3O,000. There is, very little
 they are very likely to be the decid-
 ing factor.
 A general impartial review of the
 election nation wide therefore shows
 that existing dope will prove useless
 in forecasting tomorrow's result.
 There is no way of forecasting the
 silent vote and it will be the deter
 mining factor. Surface indications
 are for landslide and each party
 mana ger will be able to comfort him
 self by the hope that it will be to his
 candidate right up to the close of the
 polls tomorrow night

PARK THEATRE

Of all the light plays of break-neck action and bewildering incident that this season has produced, The Mill lion" which comes to the Park thea- tre tomorrow night comes closest to violating the speed law. French in- genuity has seldom devised for farce a more necessarily ridiculous story than that of "Ishe Million But some of the funniest incidents are quite apart from the chase itself. One is the fat Italian tenors rehearsalS of his grand opera roles, in which he is at tackled by the moods of the characters he assumes. The excellent company which Henry w. Savage has engaged to present this riotous farce at the matinee and evening includes: Harry Davenport, E H. O'Connor, Virginia Berry, Herman forel, Ethel Weir, Rob- ert w. Frazer. Frank Dee, Jennie Weathersby, Helen Courtney and a dozen others.
 Madame x" is not the first play that has ever used the greatest of all passions Mother Love- for it's main cessfuliy present this difficult theme to the public in a logical yet master ly -way.-s Alexandre Btsson the noted French writer with an unerriug pen has pictured to us. all the endearing topics of this great love and has given us play in which all things are fine and worthy, ranging from hlnor of the rarest to grim tragedy, but all so maSterIy that the auditor sits as in 8 picture Of the human soul. Madame x" with the original production will be seen here at the Park theatre on Wednesday, Nov. 9th.

Using a King as an Advertisement.
 When P. T. Barnum invited the king Of the Sandwich Islands to show in :he city of New York he was not sat isfed with that. which was itself an advertising card. but he managed by advising the king to step with him in one of the chariots-so as to see better a certain part of the performance--tn hurry 1t up In rtoment of confusion and sweep the king around the entire circuit of the track. The papers the next day had a notice of the king of shoWmen and the king of the sand wich Islands ia chariot race. He could not have written as good an ad- vertisement as the racy news item made. It was a neat exploit. tor, small as the xing's kingdom was, his sense of his dignity as monarch was not small, and only by indirection and on behalf of a supposed different mo tive could he have been induced to be- come part of such spectacle. ~
