Saves Time and Labor
Increases Farm Efficiency

The average farmer and his family
spend many hours each week turning
the washing machine. chnrn. cream
separator, etc.. and doing other nom
productive chores.
This is a serious condition. especially
inxiew of the present labor shortage,
and the heavy demands which are
being made upon farmers for in
creased production.
Electricity is the hest solution of this
problem. Delco-Light provides plenty
of good. clean. safe electric light, and
also electric power for operating the
machines now being turned by hand.
Delco-I4ight enables the farmer to do
his work quicker and better. and
saves hours of valuable time
every day. which can he

more sallies from his front porch.
Even the democratic newspaper men

The republicans are going after the
democrats vigorously on war expend-
lures and extravaganza. They are
not harping SO much on the failures
Of the war endeavors In certain In

money as affecting taxes and high

HARDING NOW SURE
TO WIN MINNESOTA
bYSAFE MAJORITY
Only Question Is Whether His
Majority Will Be 100,-
600 or $4,000.
BY DAVID LA-RENCE.

This is the first of a series of dis
patches. to be published daily during
September and October. giving an
analysis of political sentiment in all
northern and western states. to be
followed by detailed forecast of the
presidential eIection.)
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. September
10.-Gov. Cox has gone west, Senator
Harding has gone back to Marion.
The east, like the south, is more or
less set in it's political ways. If,
therefore. there is a chance for an up
set as occurred in 1916, the west
would be likely to exhibit the first
In the western country and the num-
Der of voters is relatively small. so
the trend can be more definitely as
sessed west of the Mississippi river
during September than it can east of
that line. For the eastern states are
populouS, and sometimes a drift sets
IN about the middle of October that
changes the aspect of political things
quite materially.
Besides. Gov. Cox is just now fnvad-
ing the west, and the writer has de-
termined to trail the democratic nomi-
nee and judge, if possible. how much
Roadway he makes in this western
country. Not much can be gotten by
merely watching the crowds as they
are thrilled by oratorical effort and a
pleasing personality More can be
gained by talking a day or two after
ward with men and women in all
walks of life, business men large and
small, laborers, farmers, political
workers and newspaper men of both
republican and democratic affiliation.
Play for East Later.
So the writer will spend the re-
mainder of September studying every
western state, and will begin about
the first week in October to analyze
conditions in Illinois, Wisconsin,
Michigan, Indiana, Ohio and the At
lantic seaboard, where changes, if they
do come, occur in the last moments
Of the campaign, and where Senator
Harding and Gov. Cox will be found
at that time working to win the states
with the big electoral votes. New

ton between the managers Of the re-
publican candidate and the nominee

ton between the managers Of the re-
publican candidate and the nominee
himself.
For instance. the writer encountered
considerable dissatisfaction here among
republicans with the course Of the re-
publican national committee in handling
the senatorial investigation of campaign
funds 1t is a matter of common gossip
that Gov. Cox's figures of 500, 900
quota here were correct, and that the
republican leaders made a big mistake
when they failed to explain it.
Hereabouts they don't think 1t Is sim
full to contribute 100000 to run a cam
paign, and they would have preferred an
admission of the quotas coupled with a
demand that Cox prove that any Of the
money was used. or would be used, for
corrupt purposes. They think, too, that
it was unwise to fall into Cox's trap by
permitting the diversion of the public in
terest from the league issue to a dis
cussion of imaginary quotas, the size Of
which Is not as important as the size
Of the funds actually raised and the
method OF their expenditure.
Minnesota liked Harding and will give
him it's twelve electoral votes next No
vember.

York's forty-five votes and Ohio's
twenty-four can Offset half of the en-
tire west.
OF course. nobody who spends day
or two in any state can hope to go
away cocksure of that state. but in
nine cases out of ten disinterested
reporter can draw deductions from
the optimistic or pessimistic tone of
the rival leaders as well as from the
broad minded men in community
who are not guided by partisanship.
These men will have been making
analyses of their own states for many
weeks before the travelling reporter
arrives. Sometimes, for local reasons,
the resident newspapermen do not
print all they feel about their own
states.
The political wayfarer usually
agrees not to disclose the source of
his information. and thus picks up in
valuable information. This is the sea-
son of the year when many reporters
will travel extensively to find out
how other sections of the country are
politically inclined. and if one has
built up a string of friends in every
important city from coast to coast
and knows the personal equation of
each man and his ability in the past
to judge his own state, the task of
analysis is bound to be reasonably
accurate.
Take Minnesota, for instance Both
democratic and republican newspaper
men will confide to you that as things
look now Senator Harding will carry
the state by a good majority. The
third party movement failed to ma
terialize and the only question in dis
pute among observers is whether the
state will go for Harding by 100000
or. as some conservatives put it, by
$4,000.
Germans Against Democrats.
Anyway, no democrat of standing is
claiming Minnesota as close as it was
in 1916, when Wilson almost won the
electoral vote.
The reasons for Harding's strength
here are quite simple. Much of the
electorate is scandinavian and Nor
mon. The Germans are bitter against
Wilson for his war record. They
voted for the he kept us out of war
slogan in 1916, because they wanted
to be kept out of a war with their
fatherland They cherish resentment
and will show it at the polls.
The Scandinavians are very much
impressed by the pacifist doctrine and
many have been persuaded to believe
the republican campaign idea that
the league of nations means war in
stead of peace. Even though Norway
and Sweden have Joined the league
the Scandinavians here are against
the league. Ihelr opposition has been
carefully cultivated by a republican
press. With only one or two excep-
tions all the influential newspapers
of Minnesota are republican and have
been feeding the people Hiram John
son doctrine. Even those who favor
the league take their stand behind
Senator Kellogg. who voted for the
Lodge reservations, and the number
who want the league as brought back
by President Wilson is negligibly
small.

Republicans Blanketed.
But there is one effect of which
republicans are poignantly cognizant:
Gov. Cox has succeeded in blanketing
the republicans for a period in their
campaign activity. At time when
their executives ought to be devoting
every moment to carrying on their
campaign they must stop and answer
questions of Where did you get it ?"

SOLDIERS ADVISED
TO REINSTATE WAR
INSURANCE POLICY

Mercer county ex-soldiers who
have allowed their government in
surance to lapse are warned that
now is the time to reinstate their
policies and have their beleficiar-
les protected. Robert Thompson,
insurance officer for Fallerons post
of the American Legion, has pre-
pared a list of Mercer county SOL
diers to send to the district insur-
ance officer in Chicago, who will in
turn get in touch with the former
soldiers with the view of aiding
them in their insurance problems.
According to ruling by the bu-
reau of war risk insurance, a SOL
der is allowed Is months in which
to have his insurance reinstated. If
he has allowed it to lapse. Mr..
Thompson states there has been
some misunderstanding by the men
of the county in regard to the
amount of time which is allowed
for reinstatement. He is seeking
more definite information from the
bureau in Washington and will
soon be prepared to answer all
questions which the former soldiers
wish to ask, regarding war risk in
surance.

One Death Results From Disease
Majority Of Cases Are of Mid

Forty-seven new cases of influ-

Of the board of health OF Aledo.
These cases include u homes IN

In the city at the present time have
been reported.
As high as nine members in some
families ill with influenza have
been reported to the city board
Others have from one to three and
four cases. Physicians Of the city
state that very few cases are seri-
Gus, providing the proper atten-
ton is given. A warning against
leaving their beds too soon has
been issued by the doctors. 1t is
said that most of the fatalities are
caused by patients leaving the
house before they are fully recov-
cred. following an attack of the
disease, which then is apt to run
into pneumonia, causing death in
many cases.
So far Aledo has had only one
death from the flu. Other cases
are being handled with the utmost
care and the cooperation Of nurses
in the city is expectd to halt the
spread Of the disease before any
further fatalities occur.

INCOME RETURN
BLANKS ARRIVE

John d. Cooke, deputy revenue
officer for Mercer county. has re-
ceived blanks for making returns
on income taxes and for returns on
the various luxury taxes and will
distribute them to persons who
call at his Office in the court house.
Mr.. Cooke is in his Office every day,
prepared to aid anyone in making
their return. He urges that per-
sons who are liable to the income
tax make their returns as soon as
possible. so that no prosecutions
for failure to pay will be neces-
sary.
Although all banks are prepared
to aid persons in making out theiI
income tax reports, Mr.. Cooke
urges that they visit his Office, sc
as to relieve congestion at the
bank and insure the proper filing
of returns. All income taxes are due
now and MIR. Cooke is urging ev.
eryone to hasten the filing of theil
returns, so that Mercer county resi-.
dents will not be marked delin-
quent.

BURGLARS VISIT
MOLINE LIBRARY:
NO DAMAGE DONE

Moline public library was entered
by burglars Saturday night, but
examination failed to reveal any
losses. The burglars entered the
library through a window they had
broken. 1t is probable that the
providers were looking for money.
There is usually a small sum of
money at the library which is col
lected in fines from delinquent
book users. 1t is believed that
some library visitors probably saw
or heard Of some Of. the money, and
believing it to be large sum, de-
cided to attempt the burglary. The
place was ranSacked and upset.

were arrested Under q city ordi-
nance, but it is probable they will

are charged with driving an auto
mobile without having bright lights
dimmed. State law gives motorists
permission to drive with brigh,
lights within $50 feet of an ap-

this ordinance is invalid as it con-
