ing. HI 2F5s III 81 A, }'f7 81
The basis on which the democrats
claim the state is specifically as plaus-
tble as the method of calculation OF
! the republicans. A three cornered race
and an, independent republican and a
democrat has complicated matters.
: But the outstanding fact is that the
situation. while not without anxiety TO
the republicans is nevertheless such
that Senator Harding may be expected
to win the states electoral votes. DEM
ocrats will dispute this and point to
the trend which has started in toward
Cox on the League Of Nations issue.
They viii point confidently to the min
ine camps And argue that Cox Is as as
sured OF the labor vote because Of his
we'll known. friendliness to the miners
OF Ohio. On the other hand it is well
to examine the labOring vote In this
state with relation to that very Issue
and sse whether the miners VIII be
guided by the Views OF their leaders
or their own peculiar pre5udices. Many
miners are negroes. And in the Clarks-
