/ Views OF Ohio Editors.
OF the nine replies received from
the Ohio editors. those rejecting re-
publican opinion give the state to
! Harding by from SO 600 to zoe. 900 and
/ those of democratic views to Cox by
from $4,000 to $4,000. The colored
vote. which is 10000. will be solid
+ for Harding. and it is expected to
mining the result. Willis. republican,
is expected TO win over Julian. demo-
cratic. for the Senate by from 80. 200
| to $4,000. The election of nine dem
ocrats and thirteen republicans is in
Dictated to the lower house of Con-
gress. 1t il expected that the social
! list and farmer-labor vote will aggre-
| gate $4,000. The issues in Ohio
, cover every variant Of political
thought and prejudice. from substan-
tial division over the existing bust
ness conditions and racial resent
ment.
Think Cox Sure of Oklahoma.
Five Oklahoma editors agree that
the indications point to Cox winning
the ten electoral votes of the state
by from $4,000 to $4,000, though the
very large increase in the colored
vote seems to point to the more con-
Servativc figure. The socialist and
farmer labor vote is figured at 10000.
Ferris. democrat, is believed to have
Harold. his republican opponent,
though the result will be close. The
election of six democrats and two
! republicans to the House of Repre-
! sentatives is expected. The issues
that seem potential in Oklahoma are
general dissatisfaction, indifference to
!, the league of nations issue, taxes, the
price of wheat and protection of the
! tariff. The democrats, however, as
sert that the indicated victory for
Cox will reflect popular Endorsement
of President Wilson's administration.
Harding will carry the state by from
/ $4,000 to so 900, but they believe that
! Chamberlain, democrat, will beat
Stanfield. republican. for the Senate
by an even larger majority, because
! of the personal popularity of the
t former. The socialist and independ-
ent vote is figured at from $4,000 to
! $4,000. The three members of the
| lower house will be republican. The
| tariff on lumber, dissatisfaction with
/ the Wilson administration. which is
] held responsible for the low price of
wheat and high taxes have all helped
the republicans. The support of the
/ league of nations by the women. how
, ever. may result in surprise for the
leaders of the party.
Pennsylvania Strong for &. O. p.
! The minimum estimate of the twelve
Pennsylvania editors responding to
the World is 275,oo0 for Harding: the

,, ceive 250.00 and twenty four of the
/ thirty-six candidates for the lower

| state to Harding by from 9 900 to
$4,000, and concede the election of
three republicans to the lower house
The socialist vote is expected to ex-
coed 5000. The tariff. prejudice of
! Irish and German voters and general
discomfort are the outstanding issues
of the contest.
Five South Carolina editors concede
to Cox from 20 to 80 per cent of the
vote cast, the reelection of Smith tc
the oeIidte anu I1Ve democrats TO the
House of Representatives The social
list and other Independent vote is ex-
pected to be very small. Sentiment
for the league of nations is very
strong. as also is approval of the
Wilson administration. Tradition will
do the rest.
Put christensen Second i'm Race.
Five South Dakota editors agree
that Harding will carry the state by
| from $4,000 to $4,000. and that Chris
Jensen. the farmer-labor candidate,
| will be second in the race. Norbeck
republican. will be elected to the
seRare b ana three m members Of the
party. 1t is expected that the nom
partisan league will cast a large vote
in local contests. The outstanding is
sues IN South Dakota have been the
ton. the prejudices of the German
voters. who are very numerous; the
| low price of wheat the high price of
coal and profiteering, which are
planned on the democratic party.
Seven Tennessee editors agree that
Cox will carry the state BY from
10000 to 10000; that there will be
very large increase in the colored
vote: that socialists and other in
dependent parties will make a small
Gratis and two republicans to Con-
gress is indicated. The republicans
believe that the large increase Of the
colored vote may elect Taylor COVER
ner over Robinson. The issues that
favor the democratic presidential
ticket are resentment against the
nineteenth amendment which will
permit many colored women to vote
and tradition. Sentiment is Reported
to be very strong toward the league
of nations among the white voters.
especially the women.

Eight Texas editors agree that Cox
will carry the state by from 100 900 r.

opinion that there will be a very
large increase in the republican vote.

Utah Opinion Divided.
