CHARLESTON, W. Va, October 30
AS the women go, so will go West
Virginia
State leaders in both old parties
claim the vote of the women is go
ing to swing their respective national
and state tickets to victory. The re-
publicans say the vote of the women
will strengthen the normal republican
majority in this state, while demo-
cratic managers assert the women
are strong for the league of nations.
and for that reason chiefly they are
going to support Cox and the demo-
cratic ticket.
West Virginia, which three weeks
ago was regarded as reasonably GER
tain to go republican, has. through
recent developments and a noticeable
trend toward Cox, been definitely and
assuredly placed in the doubtful
column. many republican leaders ad-
nit.
The climax Of the national cam
paign in this state was reached this
week. when Gov. Cox made a flying
trip Monday and Tuesday through the
southern counties and, as he told his

was greeted all along the line by
mot thousands of people. but acres

jump Immediately following his visit,
and Gov. Frank O.. Lowden of Illi-
nois, who trailed him, was hardly
able to wipe out in full the increased
Cox sentiment stirred uD by the visit
of the nominee. Charleston newspa-
pers estimated the attendance at the
Cox meeting here at 10000 persons,
while Gov. Lowden, who spoke one
hour after Cox, was credited with
an audience of 5000.
The three-cornered fight for the
governorship in this state is expect
ed to have considerable bearing on

ernor. He is opposed by E. F. Nor
gan, republican. and Samuel B. Mont
gomery, candidate of the Non Partisan
League. and backed by the labor
element. Montgomery was defeated
by Morgan in the republican primary
election and the two are expected to
divide the republican vote. Cox is
expected to get a large part of the
Montgomery vote. in addition to the
normal democratic vote.

near United States Senator c. S.

a following among republicans that

'BELATED BOOM FOR COX

For First Time in Campaign Dem

Something Like Hope.

California will swing back to the re-
publican column this year with a ma
jority Of between $4,000 and loo, 900
for Harding and Coolidge on the face
of estimates of the probable vote from
all parts of the state. This is the
claim of the republican leaders and
until the first of this week the demo-
Gratis were inclined to agree with
them. But during the last few
days. a sudden development of Cox
sentiment has appeared as if by magic
and for the first time since the cam
paign opened the democrats are look
ing forward with something like hone
toward election day. While making
no claims to the state the Cox sup
porters feel that there is a fighting
chance that California may swing to
the democratic column as UNEXPECTED.
ly as it did four years ago.
1t can be said that within this period
a certain moral enthusiasm for the
league of nations has risen to the
surface in California, the first thing
of the kind In the campaign, How
far it will go in the short time re-
naming before election day is uncer-
tain: the time seems too short for it
to swing the state away from it's re-
publican mornings. But republican
leaders are concentrating themselves
that this is the last instead of the
first of October.
In the Senate fight the indications
all point to the election of Senator

elect their entire ticket-the only
chance the democrats have being as
to the election of state treasurer
Their candidate is Charles B. OrWlg
of Canton, a young man who left a
leg on the field of Argonne. while his
republican opponent is the present
state treasurer, r. W. Archer, who
has already been elected to two terms

off the primary republican ballot as
candidate for nomination as secre-
tary of state.
Judicial officers must be elected in
this state on separate and non-par-
tisan ballots and for that reason the
democrats may elect judge or two
to the supreme bench. Chief Justice
Hugh L. Nichols, who is a democrat
stands a very good chance for re-
election.
If the state goes republican as de-
cidedly as is Indicated now 1t Will
mean that the republicans will con-
troll both branches of the legislature
an important point for the reason that
the next legislature will be charged
with redistricting the state for Con-
gress.
1t is probable that the new congress
sional delegation from Ohio will stand
sixteen republicans and six democrats
1t stands now fourteen republicans
and eight democrats. The anticipated
republican gains will be made in the
twelfth and tWenty-first districts.
