MINNESOTA'S
VOTE Will BE
ALMOST DOUBLED
Women's Vote Has Made
Great Difference in State,
Say Officials.


q St. Paul. Mimi. Oct. 27.-One week
from yesterday, tho voters of Mime
sofa. in common with those in other
states, will go to the polls to express
their preferences for national and state
officers.
Augmented this year by the women
voters, it is estimated by Julius A.
Schmahl, the secretary of state. that
Minnesota's poll will total CSC, 900, as
against 387,364 ballots cast for presi-
dental candidates in 1916. $
Mr.. Schmahl places the male vote
for the election next wee at approXi-
mately 100000. and estimates that
there will be women voters to the ex-
tent of about 60 per cent of this num-
Der. or 246.000. This accounts for his
total estimate OF 656,00O.
An informal canvass of virtually
every county in Minnesota reveals
that primary interest centers in the
presidential and gubernatorial races.
Considerable interest. also attaches to
the contests for associate Justice of the
state supreme court and attorney gen.
eral.
The activity of the National Non
partisan league has resulted in un-
usually warm campaigns, with this
issue resting mainly on the contests

Cincinnati Ohio, Oct. 27.-Gov-
ernor Cox's chances of carrying Ohio
have seemed to depend largely on
what he can do Mn such Republican
strongholds as Hamilton, county,
which includes in its boundaries the
city of Cincinnati. Every time Cox
has run for Office in, Ohio he has
either cut down the Republican ma
jority. or'cartied the county. The Re-
.publicans explain it on the ground that
tho vets helped Cox. or that the
lukewarm toward such pronounced
"drys". as Frank B. Willis, the. OPP
ponent of Cox in two of the guber-7
Material races. /.
What. therefore, will Cox do this
year in Hamilton county? 1t seemed
worth a special investigation. First
of all, much to my surprise there is
no wet and dry issue. Liquor organi-
cations as such are not active or
however, being not at all blind to the
fact that Hamilton county contains
many Republicans who have voted in
the past for Cox on the Wet issue
simply reprinted in large. quantities
one of the newspaper dispatches from
the Far West wherein Cox said in eff
feet he would have voted dry had he
Deen a member OF the Cnlted states
senate.
But the prohibition question is not
a factor of Importance. The same
friendly sentiment for a Democratic
governor prevails toward the Demo-
cratic nominee for governor-C. A.
Denahey-yet with respect to the ma
tional ticket, traditional party lines
seem to,be followed. The Republicans
talk Of carrying Hamilton county by
$4,000. The Democrats privately con-
they insist the majority for Harding
will be not much better than the
Hughes majority of $4,000 or it's
equivalent, $4,000 with the women
voting this, year. +,
If Governor Cox come down to
Hamilton county with a, lead of 49,
geo to 100000 he would still be able
to carry Ohio by a majority Of from
10000 to $4,000. That's Democratic
optimism in southern Ohio.
Look for Victory.
Workers whose morale must be
kept up and leaders whose hopes are
Eve dashed to the ground till the last
vote is counted, firmly believe the
reduction of the Harding majority in
Hamilton county will mean a Cox VIC
tory in the state.
To dispute this claim or rather to
determine the validity of the foregoing
argument Of the Democrats one must
journey to northern Ohio and other
sections Of the state where Cox must
pick up the aforesaid lead over
Harding. That will be>Nthe writer's
task tomorrow in Toledo and Cleve-

Nonpartisan league choice, filed as in

justice race with Homer b. Dibell, in
cumbent, opposing George l.. Siegel.
Dibe.l and Siegel finished first and sec
ond, respectively IN the primary, and
as the supreme court justices run
without party designation, it placed
the two on the general election ballot,
Siegel has the endorsement of the
Nonpartisan league.
In addition to relecting governor
and complete state ticket, the voters
in Minnesota will ballot for state rep
resentatives. congressman, justices OF
district courts in several districts. and
for county judges of probate, as well
as county commissioners and district
court clerks in many counties. There

It is easy to dismiss Ohio with the
whispered. statements Of several we'll
informed Democrats, whohthink, the
state is lost on purely Wilson and
anti-Wilson issues, but there is no
denying the steady growth. of Demo-
cratic strength ever since Senator
Harding made his speech at Des
Mones which was interpreted as. a
rejection OF the present League Of
Nations. One of the newspapers here
printed 10000 copies Of the covenant
for free distribution and the. supply;
was quickly exhausted. The Demo-
Gratis who were inclined to scott at the
League Of Nations issue as a vote-get-
ting proposition admit that they
should have become more enthusiast
tic about it earlier in the game. They
now see its possibilities. They insist
that a mere reading of the covenant
has made votes simply because the
text of the document refutes many OF
the arguments and Misrepresentation
that have been made by opponents of
the pact. q 49,, III
Fails to Get Votes.
On the other hand, Hamilton county
reveals as elsewhere a .funda mental
desire for change in government at
Washington based entirely on domes-
tic issues. Some OF Governor Cox's
campaign speeches have not awaken
ed the ardor OF Independents. His
slush fund talk and constant criticism
of his opponents have failed to win
him votes and in some cases indeed
have lost for him such strength as he
had. There is a distinct friendliness
to Cox in this county. He knows per-
sonally many of the voters. There's
a swing toward Cox on now but
Ohio is difficult to determine at this
end of the state. Drifts are largely
conjectural though they are reflected
in street talks and the announcement
OF independents and pro-league en-
thusiasts that they will vote for Cox.
The Republicans themselves admit
that their gubernatorial candidate
Harry Davis-is losing strength and
that this may affect adversely. the
congressional ticket which is on the
same ballot but they do not agree that
Cox is benefitting particularly by that
phase of the situation. Hamilton
county. which helped. elect Cox gov
ernor of Ohio. will gossRepublican. If
the remainder Of the state gives Cox
a lead. Re could win;Evithout Hamil-
will cast her electoral vote, the po-
litical :wayfarer must sgo to northern
