ASKS
HARDING WOULD He
SAVE FARMERS LOSS
Wants TO Know il G.. @. P. Can
didate Favors Taking Same
Action as in Railways.

San Francisco, Oct 24-As a means
of relieving what is described as "des-
perate situation" faced by the farmers
of the western agricultural districts.
Farley F. Christensen. Farmer-Labor
party candidate for president, in tele-
gram sent today to Senator Warren G.
Harding. asked the Republican candidate
for president if he would approve of n
measure insuring the farmer against loss.
He compared such measure to the pro-
lection afforded the railroads in the
Esch- Cummins act. The telegram said:
My tour through the western states
has made it apparent TO me that the
farmers of the great western agricultural
districts are facing desperate situation.
Corn is down to about so cents. Wheat
is dropping. The farmers, seeking relief
from conditions that We're certain to
follow the war with the falling OF war
time prices, have been ignored by the
present administration. ] am moved BY
these considerations TO put to you as
candidate to succeed the head of that ad-
the following question:
You voted against government opera
tion of railway and in favor of the Esch-
Cummins act guaranteeing the owners
of the railroads against loss and insHring
them of profits of at lease six per cent
on their nineteen billions of capital.
without even squeezing the water out,
Would you approve of q measure SINH
Iarly guaranteeing the farmer against
loss on his crops?
Would you approve of measure in
suring profits to the farmer upon his
actual investment tno watered stock or
do you feel that the farmer is not en-
titled to the same consideration at your
hands as are the railroad owners

Nothing is known of the nature of
the formula, but there seems to be a
strong belief that the full executive COM
mittee of the miners federation will
meet the government within a few days
on basis which can be submitted to
the miners for acceptance or rejection.
The miners always have cOntended,
and in this contention have been support
ed by j. T. Thomas, secretary of the
union of railwaymen, that it is impossi-
Bile that they guarantee the output of
coal, because they do not control the
machines. They have accused the coal
owners of restricting output
In Conference Sunday.
Premier Lloyd George, cabinet mem
bers and members of the striking coal
miners, conferred for three hours Sun
day After the miners delegates had
departed the cabinet members continued
in session with Mr.. Lloyd George Frank
Hodges, on leaving with the other rep
resentatives of the miners, said the dis
cussions would be continued
After the meeting with the governme ent
leaders the miners executive body went
into conference. which lasted until 4:30
p. m. and then adjourned until Monday
afternoon. The conversations with Mr.
Lloyd George and the other members of
the government will be resumed Monday
morning. II was announced.
At the conference Mr.. Lloyd George
outlined number of ideas he suggested
might lead to peaceful solution Of the
situation. While the conference was in
progress. Baron Stamfordham, the pri-
vate secretary of King George. arrived
and remained for brief period.
Hodges Is Hopeful.
When the conference ended the min
ers' delegates went to their headquar-
ters, where they met the entire execu-
five committee and explained what had
taken place. Mr.. Hodges declined to
state the nature of the government
suggestions, but he appeared to be hope
full that they would lead to some accept
able arrangement. He asserted that
nothing further would be done pending
renewal of the conference with the
government officials
One indication of hopeful turn in
the tide of affairs was afforded by
report from a wellinformed source that
the government contemplated postponing
the introduction in parliament of its
emergency bill. which would virtually
place the country ON war basis. 1t had
been intended to attempt TO pass this
measure through all its stages Monday

LAS Good as Counted" Declares

Others in Reserve"

New York. Oct 24.-Gearge White.
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, in a statement here Sunday
forecasting the result of the election.
predicted that Cox and Roosevelt will
have 266 electoral votes, "as good as
counted the Republicans 1874, and that
the Democrats viii win majority Of the
remaining Ill.
Il have been making detailed in
yestigation of conditions in the various
states" the statement said For two
days 1 have been receiving revised re-
ports. It is now possible to give to the
public q statement of our prospects in
the election.
Lessons From Hays
Il realize that the customary act of
a national chairman at this stage of the
fight is to claim everything in the hope
he can persuade wavering voters to line
Zip with his side. Mr.. Hays, my antag
onist, has given me several public les
sons in this obsolete practice lately, by
claiming everything except part of the
southern states.
Nevertheless | am prepared TO make
fair aud honest statement of the situa-
ton. I shall reserve the names of the
states we will carry because the public
would not expect me To acauaint the
Republican managers with our campaign
plans. But | do say this:
How He Figures
Governor Cox and Mr., Roosevelt
will have 222 electoral votes east of the
Missouri river and A west of the Mis-
souri, river. n total of 28e as good as
counted This is within ten of the num-
her necessary to elect The Republicans
have 164 which ! regard as good as
counted for them. This leaves ! IL votes
in contest In the decided swing now
in progress toward the Democratic tic
ket we will carry the majority of this
Ill, very comfortable victory indeed.
This is my prediction. am conf
dent ii will be borne out election day
