ALL FOR HARDING.
Eastern States Strongly Repub-
lican, Says Allen.
Merely a Question of Harding's
Majority, Is Talk.

The east talks just like the west
and it is merely a question as TO the
size of Senator Harding's vote That is
the analysis of down east political
conditions as given today by Governor
Henry J. Allen.
During his recent trip, the governor
visited Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Penn
sylvania, New Jersey and New York.
He spoke in New Jersey, Ohio and In
diana. In all of the states, the Kan
sas executive asserted today. there is a
growing conviction that Senator Hard
ing will win the presidency by an
overwhelming majority.
Most people in the east talk just
like the folks here at home" said Gov
ernor Allen. TT seems to be merelyya
question of Harding's majority. He
will win easily in Ohio and Indiana
and Illinois, with New Jersey appar-
entity Republican by $4,000. Pennsyl-
vania is talking of 100000 to 500. 900
Republican. New York is unquestfon-
ably for Harding strong.
Senator Watson will be reelected
in Indiana and in all of the eastern
states 1 visited, there was no evidence
of doubt as to the result of the CAM
paign. Conditions in Indiana have
greatly improved in ten days and 1
believe Harding will carry the state by
majority larger than that received by
him in Ohio

co BACK TO WORK
Conflict in Statement of Ma
chinists and Employers.
ats Understood and All Fixed
Up" Says Union Head. \

Statements of representatives of the
Machinists local union No. "a, and
their employers, as to the ending of
the strike, conflict absolutely. E. A.
Tibbals, secretary of the chairman of
the executive board of the union
stated this morning that the Machin-
lists Electric company has signed the
agreement presented by the union
men, granting the closed shop and an
increase in wages, which the men de-
manded when they walked out August
3. The men who went out were ready
to come back to work, and the COM
pany was ready to take them, Tibbals
said.
There was to have been a vote of
the strikers affected some time today
to see whether they went back to work
or not, but it is understood and all
fixed up that they'll go back to work.
The vote really doesn't matter, and I
don't believe I'd say anything about
it." said Tibbals.
Tibbals said that six other firms
whose men had walked out on them
had given encouragement that they
were ready to accept the closed shop.
The officials of three of these COM
panies stated this morning That they
never would sign a. closed shop agree
nerit Among the three was W. H.
Metzdorf of the Piersen Manufactur-
ing company, chairman of the employ
ers' organization. who stated that
neither the Machinists' Electric COM

lists demanded was explained by an
other employer. who said that on June
l the men asked for raise from so

granted, tho the employers did not
recognize the union. On August 8. the
men demanded ST per hour, and this

POLITICS CAUSE OF DELAY?
Custer Suit Against Sheriff Madden
May Be Held UP TemporariIy.

Custer Suit Against Sheriff Madden
May Be Held UP Temporarily.
Whether political expediency directs
the bringing of an custer suit against
Sheriff John Madden, of Ford county,
before the November election, is one
of the problems worrying Richard J.
Hopkins. attorney general. Hopkins
has started a war on Madden. who is
rated as one of the most competent
sheriffs in the state.
Recently Hopkins received informa-
tom that supply of liquor in Mad
den'S possession had disappeared.
Other charges were made against the
sheriff. An custer suit has been in
contemplation. according to reports in
the state house. AS result Madden's
friends in Ford county have not spent
their nights campaigning for Hopkins.
IT now seems that the attorney gen.
eral is quite ready to check the re-
Sponsibility up to the governor in or
der to relieve the vote pressure.
This morning Governor Alien was
in a lengthy conference with Hopkins
and Clarenee Ateh, chairman of the
Ford county Republican committee.
The governor declined to direct action
until a sufficient amount of evidences
had been presented to him to show
that a crime has been committed. 1t
seemed Hopkins did not produce this
evidence today. In fact, there is a
belief in the state house the attorney
generals action in presenting the case
to the governor will provide suffi-
cient buffer to delay action until after
the election.
Aten is said to have strongly de-
Tended Madden's record. The Ford
county sheriff is a candidate for re-
election. Charges against his record
were recently filed with the attorney
general.
