Trip.
tsPEeIAL coaafsronpeNcrl


WASHINGTON, D. c.. Oct. "a
James B. Reynolds. who is secretary
of the Republican National Commit
Tee. has returned to this city, hay-
'ng concluded an extensive scouting
iTip through the western states. He
made state-to-state canvass and 1t
took many weeks. but he declared
today that what he found in the way
OF political conditions in that section
Of the country was well worth the
time consumed. Party prospects on
that part Of the map are frst-class.
NO votes are being diverted to-
ward the Democratic ticket In the
West because this country has not
become involved in the European
wer, he declares. On the other hand,
he says. there Is great deal OF
criticism Of the domestic policies OF
the administration, the internation-
al phase being waved aside on the
general theory that 1T would be the
duty of any pruJident, NO matter
what his politics. to keep the coun-
try out OF war.
THE Republicans and Progress
sives are coming together nicely all
through the country" says Mr.. Rey-
nolds. From present indications q
solid party will back. the nominees
o. the convention next year. In adj
dtton to this there seems to be an
excellent chance of the Democrats
being divided. The Bryan men
seem to be for him still, right or
wrong, and his recent utterances,
think, will make trouble for that
party.
Not only is there no doubt in
my mind Of Republican victory ir
most of the western states next year,
from present indications. but we will
get control of the United States
Senate. as well as capture the Houss
and the presidency. We have to gain
nine senators to accomplish that, but
we have splendid chances in eleven
states and fair chances in two more.
THE eleven states are Maine, New
York. New Jersey, Maryland, West
Virginia, Ohio. Indiana. Missouri. Ne.
braska. Nevada and Montana. The
two states in which we have fair
chance are Arizona and tennessee.
There are number of other states
now represented by Democrats sena-
tors in which we will have no trouble,
but the terms do not expire for two
more years.
"our west business conditions are
very spotty and far from satisfactory.
The people realize that the war is
lending them for the present mea-
sure of protection almost as good as
that which under Republican admin
istration would be lent by the tariff,
and they fear the conditions which
will follow peace. For instance, those
who are selling their products at war
prices in most instances are putting
their money in banks. as shown by
comparatively small loans.
THE people are growing restless
about this timidity of business and
are eager to have an administration
under which it would disappear. On
my trip ] talked not only with ma
tiona1 committeeman aud party lead
ers. but with people generally. and
almost everywhere found the same
condition"

At any reliable druggists get Q jar Of
resinol ointment and q cake of resinol
soap. These will not cost 9 bit more
than seyenty-fye cents. With the res

fected parts thoroughly, until they are
free from crusts and the skin Is soft
cned. Dry very gently. spread; on . thin
layer Of the resinol ointment, and cover

comes clear and healthy again.

Defences Now Inadequate.

I am in favor OF a permanent and
effective military and naval policy.
and ! be .ieve the defences OF u coun-
try are now Inadequate and would be
ineffective in the event OF foreign
atsack and invasion. and l am ready
10 cooperate with men who appreciate
the situation and desire TO place our
country in a condition where We can
successfully meet and cope with all
enemies tina may come against us.
! believe that Congress by proper
legislation should increase the resu-
lar standing army Of the United States
TO $50. 900 and that each State in the
Union should be required. according
to population, to raise national or
State guard regiments which will
make our available State guard force
which can be called into service by
the President reach $50, 900. That
would give US an army OF 100000
ready for duty.
When in Congress Z voted for an
appropriation Of money for the con-
struct!on Of two battleships every

propriate money and increase the
number OF our b~attleships. cruisers
