political history of Otero county.
Notwithstanding the blizzard which
swooped down on the old town

A veteran republican requests The
Tribune to print this forecast as to
the result of the elections this year:
Hughes will carry Wisconsin by 3d.
900 to 100, 900 majority and be over
whelmingly elected over Wilson; La
Toilette will win in the senatorial
primary by a majority Of at least
$4,000 and be reelected United
States senator in November by astill
larger majority; Governor Philip
will defeat any man whom the pro-
gressive republicans may unite on by
$4,000 or more majority at the Sep
TENDER primaries and be elected in
November by at least 600 MAORI
ty; Congressman Frear will be an
easy winner at the primaries in Sep
TENDER and a still easier winner at
the general election in November;
the conservative republicans will
have working majority in both
houses during the next session Of the
legislature and the Wisconsin pri-
mary law will undergo radical chang
es. He wants Tribune readers to
paste this prediction in their hats
and compare it with the returns in
