that they will have little effect on the

land the Democratic forces have been
making votes hand over fist and fully
one-third OF the total vote OF northern
Michigan can be given the Wilson

the fact that the northern peninsula

cent. according TO reliable straw votes
taken all through the district Now
'lt will be surprising II Woodbridge y.

very strong stand he has taken
against the imposition OF a tonnage
tax on the output of iron and copper

Wilson is also strong.
