stabilizing. La Follette's following is
much of mystery in connection with
the presidential vote. but the republic
ans are trying to hold all the La Fol-
lette men in line. There are reports of
Germans going over to Wilson: Then
there are also reports of much talk
among the railroad men over the eight
hour law, the employees outside of the
four brotherhoods being jealous and

The upshot of all these reports, sur
face indications and actual conditions, is
that in Ohio, Illinois. Indiana. Mis-
souri, and Wisconsin the campaign is
not over. and it is too early to put any
state out of it's normal place.
The people are in an excited condi-
