gains. There can be but little doubt
of this He will get the strong anti
prohibition vote in all the counties.
Robertson.
j. b. A. Robertson has been a factor
in the race from the beginning. He
makes a good old democratic speech
wherever he goes. He enthuses the
voters and creates a favorable i'm.
preston Farmers from his county
have toured the state. and they have
made many votes for him. Robertson
will get a healthy vote in this section
of the state.
Jennings.
Al Jennings is a candidate whose
strength cannot be figured. If the
republicans support him he is very
likely to get the nomination. Jennings
will get votes in every county. He is
the most talked-of candidate, because
his race is the most sensational.
Herring.
F.. +. Herring will get a scattered
vote all over the state. If he could
ever convince the people that he was
really a formidable candidate he
would get a heavy vote.
West.
Chas West is making gains in every
county. His workers are more en-
thusiastic than the workers for any
other candidate. Wherever he goes
he inspires the voters with his chanc-
es Of success and with his ability TO
give the people the kind of admins
tration they want His vote has al
ways come from the country districts,
the towns are supporting better this
year than in his other campaigns and
he has lost none OF his following in
the country districts. Chas. West
has been very loyal to the people in
this section of the state and it will
be an example Of ingratitude if he
does not get large vote in this sec
tion of Oklahoma. In the last election
he carried the western portion of this
county with ]. c. Graham, a home
man, in the race against him. No man
ever had to apologize for voting for
Charley West, and each time he comes
before the people he piles up a little
better vote lie is today factor in
the campaign, and all other candidates
are reckoning with his strength.
Gore.
Senator Gore has a lead over Hay.
es that in all probability means hrs
reelection. Gore is a wonderful cam
paigner. Hayes is forceful, but he is
more quiet and reserved. Gore makes
speech that appeals especially to the
farmers, however the Hayes men
state that Hayes will get a better
vote than the politicians give him
credit for They say that owen in
his campaign seemed cold and intellec-
tual in his talks, but the people voted
for him. They state that Hayes is
senatorial timber that would grow
to such proportions that Oklahoma
would be proud of and they are loyal
to him. The band wagon fellows
seem to have gone to Gore. There are
many voters who want to be on the
winning side, and this sentiment is
always q puzzle to the politicians
/ They are men who vote for selfish
interests, but their votes count just
the same.
Wilson.
In tie other races in the state there
/ is not enough discussion TO determine
intelligently the result, unless it i,
in The race for superintendent oI
public instruction. Z. II. Wilson viii
evidently make a winning in thi.
office.
Trading Like Cattle.
Before the campaign was started
it is stated that two or three poll
ticians from Carter county and one
war-horse from Love county went tC
a Williams meeting in Oklahoma City
and promised Bob Williams that they
would deliver these two counties &c

voters down here have resented it
