pronounced, and to the democratic
leaders here 1t spells the same series
of turnover symptoms$ hat gave the
state to Wilson in 1916 by 10000
plurality.
That was so much of q surprise to
republicans that even they temper
their predictions with a grain of rem
iniscence about the surprise of four
years ago-for it was a surprise to
have a normal republican state go
democratic which even the split of
1912 had given its electoral vote to
Roosevelt.
Progressives in Majority.
This is, indeed, a progressive state.
and the progressives hold the balance
Of power along with the radicals. In
other words, the old line democrats
and republicans are in the minority,
while the independent minded voter is
the ruling force at the polls.
Conflicting opinions as to the direc-
ton of the progressive and radical
vote are expressed in private by the
leaders. The democrats are deriving
comfort out of the fact that Roy
Slater, formerly progressive repub-
lican chairman, has come out openly
for Cox because he believes the lat
ter is progressive and Harding a re-
dictionary. On the other hand, the
usual number of straw votes have
been taken of the primaries and indi-
dictate much shifting of electoral cur
rents. Among the business men the
change from democratic to republican
is considerable. Gov. Cox didn't at
tract votes in that class when he was
here. His tactics were described by
some democrats of the conservative
type as mud singing"
Mr.. Cox emphasized the republican
campaign fund and read letters bearing
on the local situation. It so happens
that the word of the republicans who
have been raising the funds is potent
force of the community. So the net
effect of the exposure was to ALLEVIATE
those who believed the democratic NOM
inee had raised smoke screen without
definite proof of corruption.
