COLUMBUS. Ohio. October 3o.-The
last week of the campaign in Ohio
has seen a gain in the democratic
strength, due for the most part to
the concentrated drive made upon
the republican candidate for the gov
Davis of Cleveland. AS stated in
this correspondence last week, this
has been based on alleged malad-
ministration of the city of Cleveland.
The mayor and his friends have met
the charges with firm denials and
Cleveland churches, but evidently the
attacks made by the mayors oppo-
nents have had extensive effect among
the preachers and people of the
church eleffent in the state generally.
for there was a continuous series of
anti-Davis resolutions coming from
ministerial associations and churches
throughout the week.
That the mayor should lose some
support is inevitable. Still it seems
certain that he will have a safe plu-
rality over his democratic opponent.
But it is quite plain now that Mr..
Davis will not lead the republican
ticket as it seemed probable month
ago. That honor will in all prob
ability go to ex-Gov. Frank B. Willis,
as the candidate of the republicans
for the United States Senate to sue
coed Senator Warren G.. Harding. Mr..
Willis has not made as vigorous a
campaign as was expected of him.
but 1t has been due, no doubt to the
fact that both he and the leaders of
his party here have felt that it was
wholly unnecessary, and his efforts
were needed in other states. His
opponent, w. A. Julian, has been quite
active all through the campaign, but
conducting what seems to be a de-
eidedly ineffective fight.
Gains for Cox Claimed.
Chairman W. w. Durbin of the
democratic state executive committee
is boldly insisting that sentiment is
rapidly running in favor of both Gov.
Cox and Auditor Donahey, and claim
ing the state on both tickets. The
various straw votes in progress, all
of which show to the contrary. he
dismisses with the statement that
they are all conducted in the interest
of the republicans and are not fair.
At the opening of this week he sent
out to his county chairmen the state
ment that the outlook was most en-
eouraging.
1t is also apparent that Senator
Harding has lost some support within
the ranks of. his own party by his
attitude toward the peace league
which has become rather more hostile
as the weeks of the campaign have
passed and is now such as to lead

~ N the eve of the election
there appears to be no
abatement of the general
expectation that Harding
and Coolidge would be returned
winners next Tuesday. From a
increased democratic hopes. but in
such cases the hope apparently is
based on local conditions and not
upon a national survey.
In New York state>the swing to-
ward the democrats seems to be
more marked than anywhere else.
So pronounced has this trend been
during the past week that it leads
the Albany correspondent of The
Star to class New York as a doubt
full state; but he goes on to ex-
plain that this does not apply to
the national ticket. He thinks
Harding will carry the state, but
by a much smaller plurality than
mad been in prospect a few weeks
ago. His belief now is that Gov.
Alfred Smith. candidate for. re-
election on the democratic ticket,

In fact. it seems to be pretty we'll
agreed over the country that the
real betting proposition with re-
pect to Tuesdays election is on
control of the Senate. In a num-
Der of states. which a while back
were regarded as doubtful on the
presidency the democrats now
seem to be centerine their efforts
on the senatorial contest. Indiana
is a case in point. The predic-
ton is that Harding will carry the
state by from 10000 to $4,000. but
the democrats express confidence
that Thomas Taggart will defeat
James E. Watson for United States
senator. Indiana republicans oap-
cede that Watson will run behind
his ticket. but they do not believe
he will run far enough behind to
nlare him in danger. The Stars
INDIANAPOLIS correspondent esti-
mates that Watson will poll 90
200 to $4,000 fewer votes than
Harding. which will leave him
safe margin even should the Hard
ing plurality fall to the lowest
estimated figure.

In Ohio, Democratic Chairman
Durham claims the state both for
Cox and the entire state ticket,
but less partial observers are I'M
able to see the foundation for such
a claim. The democrats have been
making an intense drive to en-
compass the defeat of Mayor Davis
of Cleveland. the republican can
didate for governor, making their
appeal especially to the woman
voters. Newspaper straw votes in
dictate that a majority of Ohio
ticket, and that no serious num-
Der of them will scratch Mayor
Davis: but Chairman Durham dis
misses these polls as unfair. as
serting that they were made in the
interest of the republican candi-
dates.
II New York, Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois are to be counted as safe

speculative interest left in the
presidential contest is in the
border states and the northwest.

there is anything more substantial

League Issue Helps Democrats.
1t is true that during the last week
the democrats have appeared to en-
joy a new stimulation in Indiana. The
atmosphere around democratic head
quarters has been much more cheer
ing to those who are hoping for demo-
cratic victory. On the other hand.
there baS been what night be termed
a slump on the republican side, This
SITUATION has been due largely, il not
entirely, to the league Of nations.
ihose who are for the league of ma
tons have not been backward about

church people. Old-time republican
leaders say that this so-called league
OF nations slump has been largely

doubt right along, they say. that
there was sentiment among the
church people for the league nor
nave they had any doubt. they say.
that near the close of the campaign
the strong pro-lea guers would make
themselves heard in a way that might
easily give false impression of the
SITUATION. They say. however, that

Bitter Attacks ON Watson.
The close of the campaign is bringing
bitter attacks on Senator James Z. Wal.
son. The democrats seem to have hope
OF electing Thomas Taggart. Watsor,.s
opponent. even though they fail on the
rest OF the ticket. Generally it is not
predicted that Senator Watson will run
more than 10000 to $4,000 behind the

The strength of Warren T. McCray.
the republican nominee for governor,
mas been a source of surprise. It is as
serted that the McCray vote will be
heavier than the Harding VOTE
1t is predicted by both parties that
the vote in the election next Tuesday
in Indiana will be a record breaker,
even taking into consideration the worr,-
ems vote. Both parties apparently are
well organized to take care of the vote
on election day. In Indianapolis the
is estimated that the negro vote in the
state will reach $4,000. This vote will
be practically solidly republican.
