profit of attempting to irrigate wheat

tual tests a part of the state reforma-
tory farm will be used next year in

.HILLES HOPELESS,
SAY HIS FRIENDS

Sentinel Special Service
New York City, Nov. 2.-Charles
d. Hilles is hopeless of winning any
part of the New York state ticket
for the republicans or of carrying
the Taft campaign to successful
finish. Through all the hundreds
of sanguine reports which reach the
chairman in the last days before the
election there are scores of frank
messages from intimate friends which
bring the NEST discouraging news
to national headquarters from the
field. Utah and Wyoming are con-
sidered safe for the president Neither
democrats nor progressives have
made any inroads on the straight re-
publican strength in these states but
in every other normally republican
state in the onion Hilles knows that
his candidate will have a task to meet
the combined opposition of ROose-
welt and Wilson. There Is no way
that Hillss and his advisers can con
ceive that Taft can carry sufficient
electoral votes to win.
The lack of enthusiasm for Taft
nationally finds an echo in the re-
publican situation in this state.
Hedges fails to arouse any animation
among the independent voters while
SulZer campaign Is meeting with
unbounded success. Straus is the
ideal of the progrcssives but the
normal democratic strength gcing to
Sulzer precludes any hope of the Bull
Moose nominee defeating him.
There is noticeable pail of gloom
which has settled around headquart-
ers in the Times building until the
only enthusiasm is among those who
are spending prodisally the plenteous
campaign funds.
