Political managers received word OF
the dumping of the Argentine corn on

Million Bushels Already Here.
Information in Chicago last night
was that more than 100000 bushels
of Argentine corn already has reach.
ed the markets of the corn belt, and
that an unbelievably large quantity is
on its way.
The story is that practically all ship
ping of the country is being used to
transport corn from the Argentine to
New Orleans, where it is transferred
to trains and sent to Peoria. In or.
der to handle the tremendous traffic
in corn that is expected as long as the

NOT UNANIMOUS.

Members of the various railroad
brotherhoods in many states are re-
senting the efforts of their national
officers to deliver their votes to Pres
ident Wilson, because of his support
of the Adamson law. They feel that
their officers are attempting to make
them mere pawns on the political
checkerboard and they refuse to be
delivered. This was the statement
made recently by Arthur D. Burbank,
chairman of the Legislative Board OF
Railroad Trainmen in Illinois. Mr..
Burbank, whose duties require him to
visit various lodges of his organiza'
ton, declared that there was a decid-
ed trend toward Hughes among rail-
road men and that it daily is growing
stronger, as the men have opportun.
ity to study and discuss the so.called
eighthour law.
"The sentiment in favor Of Wilson
is disappearing" said Mr.. Burbank,
"and the evident attempt of the Grand
Lodge officers to influence the mem.
bership is reacting. The railroad
men as a class are pretty 1ndepend-
ent in politics and they do not want
their officers to tell them how they
should vote. The men who have al
ways been Democrats are shouting
little louder than usual in this cam
paign, but the men who have always
been Republicans have not changed
and are going to vote for Hughes.
"As to the Adamson law. few Of
our members understand it and all
are more or less suspicious of it.
Many feel that in departing from the
established custom Of joint confer.
ence and direct wage adjustments,
the brotherhoods have made great
mistake. l have found many Of our
members who are more ready to crit.
icize than to praise our national on.
GERS for dragging them into the po-
litical arena. The brotherhoods have
made substantial progress in the last
ten years through their economic
forces and the members feel that all
that work has been lost and that
wages and working conditions are
now merely political issues.
in the last two weeks l have no
ticed a decided change In sentiment,
especially in Illinois. Our members
have not forgotten the conditions
which prevailed two years ago, when
train crews were laid of by hundreds
and thousands. They understand that
the present prosperity is temporary,
due entirely to the European war,
and they want to see their bread and
butter placed on a firmer foundation.
They are afraid that the reelection
Of Wilson and Democratic Congress-
will result in return to the deplor.
able conditions Of two years ago. be-

POLITICAL PREDICTIONS.

THIS is the season for eXtravagant
predictions as to the probable results
of November 7. Each side is conf
dent of victory. Straw votes, chame
leon.like, take the political color OF
the newspaper or group Of individuals
conducting them. They are not con-
vincing and of necessity cannot be
thorough enough to disclose anything,
The presidential campaign of 1916
has been aptly called a horse race.
AS the day of election approaches the
betting odds are becoming even.
Speculation this year is more or less
futile. Elements are present that
never existed before.
There is the suffrage vote, for In
stance. In twelve states women hold
the balance Of political power. 1t is
likely that they will vote as their
brothers and husbands do. Such has
been the case in local and state az
fairs and it is reasonable to suppose
that a presidential election will be
no exception. Zone cross" is the slo.
gan in many families where men and
women vote. 1t means that each vot.
er In that family will place cross
after the same nominees.
How general this unanimity is no
one knows, but it is reasonable to
suppose that the suffrage vote will
swell the Republican pluralities in
the Republican states. s.:
Conditions are further complicated
by the war. That it should have any
considerable effect upon the result Of
the presidential election is unfortu
nate. But the fact remains that many
voters who enter the polls November
are going to be affected by the at
titude of the administration toward
the various belligerents. Probably
the net result will be immaterial.
Sympathies of foreign born voters
constitute a factor that unsettles the
computations of the politicians.
Voters are not as politically de-
monstrative as they were eight or
twelve years ago. Torchlight process.
sions, the marching clubs and many
we'll known concomitants of a nation
al campaign are missing. 1t is the ST.
lent, Unconditional voter that exerts
the greatest influence at the polls.
There never has been a presidential
election when he was more silent and
less emotional.
This necessarily does not favor
President Wilson. As the candidates
are on the home stretch, surface indi.
cations favor Charles Evans Hughes.
Reports from the normal Republican
states representing sufficient electoral
votes are favorable to him.
Conceding President Wilson con.
siderable increase in his popular vote
It seems hardly likely that sufficient
gains will be made to overcome his
minority vote in 1912. The Progress
sive and Republican parties are prac
tically reunited and whatever Sigh,
objections may exist, the Tribune be
lieves they are hardly serious enough
to return: the Democratic party tc
power.
The election is the most importan,
for the nation since the Civil war. A
Hughes victory means the instituting
