CHANGES POSSIBLE
IN TWELVE STATES
Chairman Wilcox Hopeful of Carrying
Eight, With Chances in Four Others
Expect ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Vote
to Unite.

r. NEW YORK, Aug. Is. - Repubicans
at national headquarters here are not
SO busy trying to elect Hughes that they
are forgetting the senatorial situation.
Lines are being laid for the stiffest kind
OF tight to swing the control of the
senate to the Republican side.
TINS IS new feature in national
campaigns, the popular election of sen
ators having been adopted since the
last presidential campaign. The com
mittee of Republican senators formed
to manage this campaign is TO move
here shortly and have offices near the
national committee so that the battle
for Hughes and a Republican congress
will go hand in hand.
To gain control of the senate. Chair
man Wilcox said it would be necessary
for the Republicans not only to hold
their present strength of 50, but to re
place nine Democrats with Republicans.
The term of one Democratic senator
in these states expires this fall: Maine.
New York, New Jersey, West Virginia,
Maryland, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada.
Missouri, Arizona and Ohio. Indiana
has two Democratic senators whose
terms expire.
Summing up a review Of the situation
in each of these states, Chairman Will
cox said;
THE situation indicates the Republi-
cans have reasonably good prospects of
gaining senatorial vote in each of the
states of Maine, New Jersey. New
| York. West Virginia, Montana, Nevada
and Ohio, and fighting chances for add
| tional increases from the states OF
Maryland, Indiana, Nebraska, Missouri
and Arizona.
Should the Republicans elect senators
! in the first eight states mentioned by
! the chairman this would mean a tie
which with a Republican vice president
would insure control.
| Mr. Wilcox made it clear he was has
| ing his statement largely on the com
! bined Republican and Progressive vote
in 1912 taken in connection with tn,
trend shown in each state i'll subsequent
elections.
The occasion for optimism in Illinois
is that Republicans and Progressive
there from the top down are working
hand in hand and the best of good feel
ing prevails everywhere. This is a
true of Progressive leaders like Mcdil
Mccormick and Raymond Robins as j
is Of the rank and file.
1t was announced that Charles f
Hughes will make five speeches il
Maine, as follows: September :, Yorl
i Harbor and Portland; September :
/ Lewiston, Waterville and Bangor.

Good Crop Prospects.

Many of the farmers are still harvest
ing their hay crop, which is unusual
here in the last half of August but
which was brought about by unfavor-
able weather combined with a scarcity
of labor and large yield. After a
very backward spring the crops in gen
eral, especially corn, are now fully up
to the average with the single exception
of tobacco, which is little behind but
is now growing rapidly. If the frost
does not come early it is expected that
this crop will yield abundantly.
The early potatoes are producing
fairly well, although as rule they are
rather small. The late crop promises
to be fair in most pieces.
Garden vegetables are now to be had
in abundance with the exception of to
matoes. Weeds have been the bane OF
1.-THE farmer s existence this year. as
might be expected with so much rain.

Bad Bumps Near South Entrance to

Editor Of The Reformer:-
. In behalf Of the members of the
Chalmers club | would like to make a
suggestion to the village
Inasmuch rs the covered bridge span
ming the W1st river on Putney road is
a dangerous AMI difficult place for new
drivers, the road should be in as good
shape as possible. At the present time
there are number of bad bumps and
holes on the right hand side of the
road at the south entrance Conse-
quentlv people driving over the road
frequently have tendency TO keep
to the left and avoid the bumps Ii
that place could be filled in and
smoothed up bit | think all driver
would feel safer when coming out of
the bridge and ascending the hill.
