ILLINOIS IN LINE
FOR WILSON MEN
DUDLEY FIELD MALONE FINDS
ILLINOIS STRONG FOR SuLLI-
VAN AND DEMOCRATIC
TICKET.
UNION MINERS GIVE SUPPORT
Labor Legislation of Democratic Al.
ministration Gains Many
Friends.

Dudley Field Malone, collector OF
ager for Woodrow Wilson at the Bal.
timore convention, returned TO Chi
cago yesterday after completing a tour
of the state in behalf OF the candt
daey of Roger c. Sullivan for United
States senator. Mr. Malone visited
Cook, Peoria, Mclean. Sangamon, JEFF
ferson. Madison. Saline and William
son counties during his tour. He de-
elares that what he saw and heard
convinced him that Mr.. Sullivan viii
be elected His statement follows:
After a tour OF the state Of Illinois,
during which | spoke TO about ten
thousand voters at eight meetings in
as many counties OF Illinois, it is safe
for me TO prophesy that Roger c. Sui.
Ivan will be elected United States sen.
ator from Illinois by smashing ma.
iority
Il was particularly impressed by
the fact that In the southern part Of
Illinois, which President Wilson car
ried by so handsome q majority in
the national election, not only the
Democrats. but citizens Of both the
other parties are supporting and are
going TO cast their ballots for Mr..
Sullivan as the only candidate in
the field who is pledged to and can be
relied upon to support the president
his program and his administration.
From my observation should say
that Mr.. Sherman is badly beaten
candidate, because OF his continued
opposition to the president. As a
consequence Mr.. Robins, the Progress
sive candidate, is likely to run ahead
OF him, but Roger Sullivan will be like
the America in the first OF the inter
national yacht races, when the sor
rowing Englishman reported to the
queen, There Is no second"
The great European war seems to
be the topic Of chief interest to the
citizens OF Illinois at this time, and

lea at peace has broken down party
lines in Illinois as elsewhere and men
without regard to party are voting for
those candidates who will best sup
port the president and his admins
tration.
Il went through the mining sections
and found that the union miners are
standing in strong support Of the
president and thee Democratic con.
gress which has put ten great labor
measures upon the statute books OF
the country The most popular man
in the mining sections is the Secre.
tary of Labor, William r Wilson, who
was appointed by President Wilson to

merly a miner and for eight years
