BOSTON, September 1S.-It is unde-
niable that the Massachusetts, de-
mocracy is suffering from general and
deep-seated apathy. Leaders of the
party freely admit 1t in private. The
Maine election has emphasized it. Go
where one will, he can find no activity
for Cox and Roosevelt on the part
of the democratic state committee.
Boston. the hot-bed of the state de-
is particularly uninterested.
Though the $4,000 republican plural
ity given to Parkhurst for Governor
of Maine was received by the repub-
licans Of the country with more or
less surprise, the result did not as
tonish either republican or demo-
cratic leaders in this state. A day or
two before the election one heard
from democrats that Parkhurst would
win by at least $4,000. They declared
that Irish Americans would generally
vote for the republican nominee. To-
day these same leaders of Massachu-
sets democracy are saying that what
the Irish-Americans did in Maine
they would do in Massachusetts, in
November. Some democrats here go
SO far as to predict that Harding will
carry Boston. One prominent demo-
cPat declared that Harding and Cool
idge will carry Massachusetts by
200, 900, Notwithstanding the fact that
Gov. Coolidge's plurality on the law

STATE OF WASHINGTON
READY FOR CAMPAIGN
Results Of Primaries Indicate That
the Independent Voters Hold
the Balance Of Power.

TACOMA. Wash, September Is (Spe-
eiaD.-With Washington's primary cleo
tions out Of the way. plans for the ma
tionai campaign. which have been held
in allegiance, are rapidly shaping. The
visit Of Gov. Cox to the state. coming
as 1t did at the eleventh hour Of .
warm primary campaign. failed to create
the interest hoped for by the democrats.
Senator Wesley n Jones was nom
mated in the primaries with a huge
majority over his opponents. His plu-
rality over Col InSlis. second in the
race. was two to one. An eleventh
hour awakening and q whirlwind
campaign put over Senator Jones.
All congressional. representatives
from the state were renominated.
The general election will and Jones
in another triangular battle. The
farmer-isbor party nominated c. J.
France Of Seattle. France is a
brother of Senator France of Mary
land and will have the support Of
the combined radical organizations
of the state.
The democrats nominated G. F. Cot
terill of Seattle, former state senator,
mayor Of Seattle and recently state
highway engineer.
With the exception of the second
congressional district, there will be
three candidates for each district.
The democrats cast less than 10000
votes In the primaries. but this can
not be taken as an indication Of that
party's strength in the general cleo
ton, as the farmer-labor party vote
went into the republican primaries.
The result indicates that the re-
publican party controls not more
than 40 per cent Of the total vote. OF
the remaining 50 per cent. 20 per
cent will be normally democratic. and
the fight will be to win to the ma
tional ticket the remaining 40 per
cent Of Independent voters. This per-
centage is, claimed by the farmer
labor ticket, but careful analysis OF
primary returns fails to substantiate
this claim. JAMES DeK. BROWN.
