EXPECT
DEFEAT OF GLYNN
Leaders Here Hope for Majority
Of Thirty to Forty-five in
Next House..

AS the time for the November cleo
ton draws near it is possible to say
quite accurately what the Democratic
leaders in Washington really expect as
to the outcome of the campaign.
One Of the things to which some OF
the most astute of them look forward
Is the defeat of Governor Glynn and
the election of Whitman in New York.
1t Is expected that Gerard will win the
Senatorship, but Glynn, it Is antict-
pated, will be materially weaker.
The electioI Of Penrose to- the Sen
ate in Pennsylvania and defeat Of
Palmer and Pinchot Is also expected.
On the other hand, the chances Tor
election Of Roger Sullivan in Illinois
are looked son by the leaders here as
good.
The Democrats expect Neeley, Demo
crat, to win the Senatorship in Kan
sas. They take it for granted Connolly
will be defeated in Iowa and Cummlns
reelected. The defeat Of Senator
Thomas in Colorado is said to be GER
tain. Democratic chances In Ohio are
reported good. The Democrats here
have little hope either Of Nebraska or
South Dakota.
AS to the House, continued control
by the Democrats by a majority which
will range from thirty. to forty-fve is
expected in the best-infoEmed Demo-
cratic quarters. 1t is admitted there
will be a large slump from present
Democratic strength In the House.

Conference to Pray for
Restoration of Peace.

An intimate view of the European war
was given the joint council Of the Cen
eral and North American Conference of
the Seventh-Day Adventists today in

compelled to cease his operations in the
war-stricken territory, and remove to a
neutral country, the delegates at the
conference were asked to pray that the
war cease.
"The general view all over Germany,
said the missionary, "is that this war
was instigated through the jealousy OF
England, and my personal observations
in England and in Germany lead me to
believe that there is at least great deal
Of reason for this suspicion"

FEDERAL CONTROL OF
RAILROADS FAVORED
Western Executives Indorse Rip
ley Plan to Guarantee Divi-
dends.

CHICAGO. Oct. 8.-The Western rail-
road executives are on record today as
favorng the plan of President E. P.
Ripley. of the Santa Fe system. that
all railroads in the United States be
placed under Government control with
a Government representative on the
directorate of each road and in return
a Government guaranty of adequate
dividends.
c. G. Burnham. vice president Of the
Chicago, Burlington. and Quincy, gave
out a statenent indorsing the plan.
Burnham complained that under the
present system one branch of the Fed
eral Government fixes railroad rates,
another fixes labor costs by compelling
arbitration Of labor difficulties, while
many different State bodies make regu-
lations regarding service. These vari-
Gus Governmental agencies should be
consolidated, he said.
H. U. Nudge, president OF the Chi
cago. Rock Island. and Pacific. COM
mended Ripley's plan. w. A. Gardner,
president Of the Chicago and North
western, and Fl. r. Kurrie, president
Of the Monon, agreed that duplication
Of service in the railroad business was
responsible for the big losses.
