MIDDLE WEST SPOTS
NJ 'ADOO AS NOMINEE

William G. McAdoo is virtually CON
ceded the democratic nomination for
president in the middle west. Dan p.
smythe, local sheepman, said today
Charles p. Hughes, General Leonard
Wood and Hiram johnson appear to
be the strong men of the republican
party, with sentiment probably favor
ing Hughes. Mr.. Smythe has spent
two months in Chicago and returned
Sunday.
Chicago and Illinois are talking
more about the league of nations,
however. than they are of the next
presidential campaign, Mr. Smythe
says. They are for a league in Chi
cago but are pretty strongly inclined
toward the proposed reservations. The
tactics of Senator johnson have won
him quite a following in the windy
city and vicinity
The present Illness of president Will
son. Mr. Smythe said. has caused the
middle west to consider him out of
the running in the next campaign. The
democrats appear to be more united
on the subject of a candidate than the
republicans with three big men now,
sharing the limelight.
Business in the east is in healthy
condition and money seems plentiful"
Mr., Smythe said. 1.-THE labor situation
however, is bad. 1t does not seem so
much matter of wages as hours. The
attitude seems to be to make a living
without working at all, if possible
The high cost of living probe hit
the producer hard but only doubled
the miadlemen's profits. according to
Mr.. Smythe. Hogs lost and cents,
and cattle and sheep and cents in
the Chicago market by the retail price
remained unchanged, he declared
Increased production is the only cure
for the high cost of living" he said
