POLITICAL WORKERS
FINISH THEIR TASKS
Great Battle at End With Both
Parties Claiming Victory
at Polls Today.
FAIR WEATHER PREDICTION

New York. Nov. 6.-On the eve of
the presidential election general con-
fidence in the result of Ithe balloting
was expressed in the Camps of the
rival republican, and democratic forces.
Political workers had completed their
tasks, their leaders had issued the
usual final forecasts and nothing re-
manned but the work of bringing out
kthe vote.T
Tonight the standard-bearers of the
leading parties remained quietly at
their homes, President Wilson al
Shadow Lawn, and Charles f. Hughes
at his hotel in New York. Surrounded
only by immediate members of their
families the candidates plan to- re-
ceive the returns in their homes. To-
morrow Wilson will go to Princeton
to vote at the old fire engine house
near the Princeton campus. Mr..
Hughes will vote in laundry on
Forty-fourth street, New York, near
his hotel headquarters.
Fair Is Prediction.
The weather man has promised
genetally fair weather and moderate
temperature in most parts Of the eoun-
try for election day.
Officials to be elected follow:
President and vice president.
Thirty-three United States senator's.
-Four hundred and thirty-five mem.
bers Of the house of representatives.
: Thirty-fiYe governors. .N
Legislators and other minor repre-
sentatives.
A number of states will vote on GER
tain amendments, chiefly of local in
terest.
Six states, Michigan. Idaho, Mis-
souri,, Montana, Nebraska and South
Dakota, will vote on the prohibition
question, an issue that has doomed
large on the political horizon for Some
years past. The territory of Alaska
also will vote on this question. In
Arizona an amendment for the abpli-
ton of capital punishment wdl be up
for popular decision. B. ~.
I Womans' Vote Feature.
Woman''s part in the presidential
election IS one of the outstanding fea-
lures. In one quarter of the forty
eight states women have the vote
this year. The twelve states are Colo
RADIO, Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Wash
ington, California, Arizona, Oregon
Nevada, Montana and Illinois, The
women IN the'last~six states have the
vote for president this year for the
first time; The interest political lead
ers take, in this vote can be appreci-
ated when it is seen that the states
involved have pihety-one electoral
votes, a little more than one sixth Of
the electoral colleges total vote.
One woman, Miss Jeanette Rankin
of Montana, is rHnning for congress
in the. republican party. II she is
elected Montana will be the, first state
in the nation to send a woman to con-
gress.- The progressives of the First
Colorado Congressional district also
nominated woman, Hattie X How
ard, but she has since withdrawn.

I'm accordance with my agreement

this occasion are remembered with
deep emotion the many evidences Of

great and heavy sacrifice which this

attack had to make for the victorious
defense of the eastern frontiers of my

the fact that Galicia forms part of our

Bile for Alex Miller. publisher Of the

that the postage and printing bills OF
D. w. Norris in his good roads propa-

roads and it is stated that he spends
Ave or six thousand dollars "a year IN
his crusade. All of this is incompre-
hensible to man who has spent his life

The STYLE SHOW.

The style. show is place where
women are shown just how they will
look SIX months ahead.
About twice a year, when business
Is dull, style show is held in some
city for tbetbenefit of women who do
not like to wear the same gown more
than once in succession. A number OF
styles which never occurred to any
body in his lucid intervals are draped
on a few models in free and easy
manner, II and it is decided that any
woman present who refuses to wear
the same shall be cast into outer dark
ness. While the style show Is In
tended primarily for women, once in
while some modest husband will stray
take one, startled look and then
fade out of the nearest exit carrying
thick purpling blush from his collar
AS a rule, the style show does not
reach into the rural districts until the
vogue has changed and the price has
dropped. THIS explains why so many
people prefer to live in the country and
wear something that does not go ont
of style within thirty minutes after 1t
has been taken of a wire dress form.
It is great mistake for a. husband
who halls from the quiescent interior
to take curious. high-spirited wife
into the style show, for the experience

RE.cRoSS EXAMINATION.

The Knoxville Journal will have tt
explain again. 1t was quoted by the
Harding campaign committee as hav-
ing said that Mr.. Barber of the Anti
Saloon League. called at the Journal
office last Saturday morning" "Mr
Barber said that he knew Mr.. Harding
intimately and liked him very much
that he was not fighting him in this
campaign" Rev. Mr.. Hillman, the
president of the league, challenged the
Journay, saying that Barber had not
been in Knoxville for a year. The
Journal explained that mistake had
been made, that Barber did not call
at the Journal office but called up the
Journal office by telephone and then
the Journal replies:
Who lied? Ask Hillman or Bar
Der. The Journal printed the exact
truth. so far as essentials are con-
cerned."
We did ask Barber and he now says
in the Des Moines Register, Il did not
say that 1 was not fighting Harding,
but I did say empha tically that we
were for Meredith" The Times-Re
publican editors remember the skin
ming Barber got in the Eagle Grove
Eagle for opposing Harding from a
church pulpit in that town so the pre-
ber's favor The attorneys ought to
recall the Journal to the witness stand
for redirect examination.
