sought for and the President will put
himself at the head of the movement
to restore business to uninterrupted
prosperity along the avenues the
government holds to be legal.
To this end Secretary Redfeld will
make use 0f new appropriation to
organize Scorps of commercial attaches
abroad who will 60 out to find markets
for American goods. Already a
number of trade ENJOYS are at work in
foreign markets. The Department of
Commerce has established branch
Offices in the leading centers in all
sections of the country to bring govern.
ment aid near the merchant aad manu-.
facturer. This is part of the construct

field hopes to prove his contention that
progressive business men do not need
the shelter Of tariff wall to compete
in the worlds markets.
Congressman Connolly is receiving
continued assurances of support from
administered ton leaders for the coming
cam paign. WilliamF. McCombs, chair
man of the Democratic National Com.
mittee, was at the White House few
days ago to tell President Wilson that
in his opinion Connolly can win in Iowa,
and that he was determined Mr.. Con.
molly should receive all the help the
National Committee could give him.
Mr.. McCombs told the President that
defeat Of Senator Cummins, who has
been hostile to the administration
throughout, by progressive Democrat
should be aided in every way by the
administration.
In connection with the Senatorial
campaign, Washington was interested
in an editorial appearing in the
Dubuque Telegraph. Herald which found
in the primary returns certain indica-
lions of Senator Cummins' defeat.
The Telegraph Herald shows that the
total primary vote for the Republican
Senatorial candidates was 140,277, or
76 per cent. of the vote cast for Clarke
for Governor in 1912. OF this number
Cummins got O,622, or approximately
IS per cent, and Savage 1865, or
approximately IS per cent. If each
had polled the same percentage of the
party vote not cast, Cummins would
have received 49, and Savage s..
OO9. Senator Cummins is $4,000
strong and Savage $1,000, the rele.
graph Herald declares.
Everybody in Iowa knows that
practically every vote cast against
Cummins in the June primary will be
cast against him in the November cleo.
ton" the Telegraph Herald says.
Everybody knows that the $4,000
votes for Savage expressed hatred
personal and implacable of the Iowa
Senator. Everybody KNOWS that
every one Of the, $4,000 men who went
into the booth to cast bis ballot for
Savage did 30 in the face Of sure defeat
and % duty he felt he owed his
conscience" The Telegraph Herald

grant the assured fact that Connolly

Dunn, and the vote of Connolly for
Senator will be 232,449. Whittle it
down At your own pleasure. keeping
within the bounds of plausihility, give
Connolly only 10000 Of the 1000 and
Cummins the other $4,000, and still
would Connolly have $4,000 and Cum

the figures as one will, the fact stands
forth that the Bull Moose
schism and the $4,000 anti-Cummins |
votes make sure beyond
the peradventure of doubt the election
of Maurice Connolly as United States
Senator.
E. T. Meredith, Congressman Con.
nolly's primary opponent, was in Wash.
ington last week, accompanied by his
wife and daughter. They were invited
by Cong gresham Connolly to be his
guests at dinner, and at the big Navy |
reception given by Secretary Daniels.
