REPUBLICANS SEE
IS. @. S. SIGNS
FROM The WEST
Campaign Managers Siam
peded by Indications of
Wilson IS Re election.

New York, Nov. 1.-The New York
Telegram, the evening edition of the
Herald, comedies in last nights issue
that Mr.. Hughes campaign managers
have been literally stampeded by cur
rent political developments indicating
President Wilson's reelection. One
article is headed Republicans in
Panic as Campaign Nears End" and
says:
Although every effort is being
made to conceal the state of feeling
that prevails at Republican National
Headquarters it is known that the
campaign managers are bordering on
a panic. and SO desperate do they feel
which way to turn. This was the ad-
mission Of one Of the most active
members Of the Republican National
Committees Campaign Committee.
Every preconceived arrangement for
the closing of the campaign has had
to be changed, and the IS. o. S.
signs that are coming in from every
Republican state in the Middle West
have the campaign managers in de-
spair."
The Evening Telegram also features
another article setting forth that at
least one-third of the New York Pro-
gressive vote is for President Wilson.
Upon this subject it says:
THAT thirty-four per cent. Of the

Referring to this matter, the
Farmers Fireside Bulletin, official pa
per Of the Texas Farmers Union, in
it's issue Of Sept. 27, editorially says:
1T is freely reported that certain
spot firms in Texas have been too ac-
tive in selling cotton at a low figure
and that, unless they are enabled to
purchase several hundred thousand
bales of cotton at very cheap price
the chances are. they will go bank
rupt. And one broker remarked that
those firms in Texas could readily
afford to pay somebody twenty-five
thousand dollars, or more, cash, to
have sent that fake telegram. which
cost the farmers a loss in the price
'pf cotton Of at least fifteen million
dollars in one day"
The Democratic National Commit
tee contends that the Pope attack on
the Adamson Law was inspired from
railroad sources and that there is
documentary evidence which proves
that one railroad prominent in Texas
politics paid for ten thousand copies
Of the Pope document, which were
delivered to Arnold, who was in New
York recently negotiating for the gen.
eral distribution of the pamphlet
throughout the country prior to cleo
ton. The committee asserts that the
circulation Of this document in more
than two states, in an effort to inf1u-
ence voters, brings it within the Fed
eral statute requiring publication Of
campaign expenses and is demanding
that Mr.. Pope file a statement show
ing where he got the money.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
Bridgeport People Should Learn to
Detect the Approach Of Kid

The symptoms Of kidney trouble
are many. Disordered kidneys often
excrete thick. cloudy, offensive
urine. full Of sediment, irregular OF
passage or attended by sensation
Of scalding. The back may ache,
headaches and dizzy spells may oc-
cur and the victim is often weighted
down by feeling of fanguor and ia
tigue. Neglect these warnings and
there is danger. Delay often proves
fatal. ~
You can use no better endorsed kid
ney remedy than Doan's Kidney Pills
Here's Bridgeport proof of their
merit.

FAIRFIELD WOMEN TO
HAVE VISITING NURSE

The Fairfield Parent-Teacher asso-
citation will hold it's first meeting of
the year at Sherman school Friday
afternoon. 1t is hoped that a large
number will be present. The asso-
citation has planned a course Of six
talks on the care of children and
home nursing, to begin Wednesday,
Nov. 8, at $3.50 o'clock. They will
be given by Mrs. H. M. Clarke, who
has been trained for a nurse and has
children of her own, and is, therefore,
perfectly competent to give the talks.
The proceeds will be given to the
fund for the support of a visiting
nurse in Fairfield. The tickets will
be for sale at the meeting Friday and
also can be obtained from members
of the association. All the mothers
in town whether they belong TO the
association or not and any others
who are interested may avail them
selves of the opportunity to attend
this course. The course will be con-

FEAR DISASTER
McC ormick Shows Fallacy
Of Report Circulated in
Chicago.

Chicago, Nov. Vance G. McCor-
mick chairman of the Democratic Ma
tional committe, before leaving yes
terday, for New York, issued the fol-
lowing statement:
II was surprised to find upon my
arrival in Chicago that the Republi-
can National committee, in a last des-
perate effort to avert the political dis
aster that surely awaits the Republi-
can party and it's candidate, had cir
cu1ated a report that the Democrats
concede New York. The report is
unqualifedly false and is as far from
the real facts as it possibly can be-
1.-THE Democratic National COM
mittee confidently predicts that Presi-
dent Wilson will sweep the state OF
New York and that the Democratic
state ticket will be elected. The
Democrats are prosecuting their cam
paign in New York with the vigor and
confidence. and I am happy to say
that our private advices from all sec
tions of the state, corroborate news
paper polls, which show that the
President has a substantial lead over
Mr.. Hughe- in the popular esteem OF
the people, and is gaining strength
daily.
THE truth of the situation in New
York is this: The Republicans have
discovered at this late hour that their
campaign in the Empire State has
made no progress, Notwithstanding
their profligate advertising campaign
and the directing mind of such Old
Guardleaders as William Barnes, 'Jr.
of Albany. They know that the pub
lie has been informed as to the plight
of the Republicans in New York
state, and that their coalition with the
Barnes machine has been exposed
The Republicans resort to the stereo-
typed methods of the professional pol
iticans by malicious1y and falsely cir
culating the report that the Demo
Gratis concede defeat.

paign canards that may be expected

President Wilson instead of for Chas.
e. Hughes was the admission made
today by one Of the most prominent
progressives in the city working in
the interest of Mr.. Hughes. He said
today that a canvass of all the en-
rolled progressives in the state shows
that that proportion was for the
President. The fact was decided
shock to him, he said, as he had no
idea the percentage would be SO
large"
Commenting on the drift to Will
son. which is sweeping the country,
the New York Evening Post Gnde-
pendent) offers editorially the follow
ing explanations:
''I can think of several reasons why
T might vote against Wilson," said a.
puzzled Independent the other day,
"but can't think of one why I should
vote for Hughes. This puts COM
pactly the extraordinary nature of the
present Presidential campaign.
''This fact has been the great
weakness of the Hughes campaign,
and it has been the more glaring as
his speeches and the days have slip
ped by"

last time The justices were asked to say
whether these bounded and bewildered work
men should be ruined in purse and happi-

Irwin Cobb Predicts That
the Common People Are
For Wilson.

Irwin S. Cobb. whose interview with
Lord Kitchener of England. at the
beginning of the European war,
created interest in this country and
abroad, and who has been campaign
ing for President Wilson, is as in
teresting in his comment on national
issues as he is on the platform when
discussing the international situation.
His indOmitable humor creepS into
even his most serious discussions of
the campaign, as for instance when
he says, 81 am quite sure that Mr..
Wilson will lose Wall Street in New
York, and carry Main street in
Podunk" N
Mr.. Cobb spoke in Meriden Satur-
day night. He has one more speak
ing engagement in the state al
Thompsonville.
About the issues of the campaign
and Wilson's chances. Mr.. Cobb said
yesterday in an interview: IT believe
that Wall Street, which never pick
ed winner yet started out on the
theory that Mr. Hughes would have
been elected Most Of these gentle
men, whose business is in Wall
Street, and for whom politics and
business begin at Forty-second street
and Broadway, who were heartily
for Hughes, have made the fatal err
ror of betting their money where
their sentiments lay. Now these same
gentlemen are hedging their bets, be-
cause they have heard not only from
the counting house, but their. round.
house, not alone from the clerks i'm
the brokerage Offices, but from the
hard hands on the farm. And they
realize what they would have realiz-
ed before If their horizon had not be-
gun at the sub-treasury and ended at
Trinity graveyard, that masses Of the
people who work with their hands
and their brains in the United States
believed from the beginning of this
campaign that a president in the
chair is worth two in the bush.
"Up until now the gentlemen who.
handle these wagers on the election
and who believe that you can pre-
dictate result by offering a bet.
to 5 or 10 to 6, labored under the
delusion that because they wanted
Hughes for President, the rest Of the
country did. The discovery of their
mistake has probably been a shock
to their sensibility, but a saving to
their pocketbooks, because / am re-
liably informed that considerable
numberl Of rich men in New York,
who two years ago were posting their
spare capital on Hughes and giving
odds, are. now hedging their bets in
the hope of breaking even.
81 do not base my belief that Will
son is going to win on the optimistic
manifestos issued by the National
Democratic Committee, but from.
what men know and from what
men I have talked with here say,
am quite sure that Mr.. Wilson will
lose in Wall Street, and carry Main
street in Podunk.
eft is already quite evident that it
is going to grow more evident that
every day between now and the 7th
of November that the people Of the
United States are satisfied with the
performance of a President who is
making them ready for war, and at
the same time keeping them out of
it,, and they are going to endorse him
by giving him the biggest and most
overwhelming popular vote since
ROoSevelt beat Parker"
