that in seven states contests already
have been narrowed down to two

favor of the progressives. The
states, he said. are Pennsylyanla,
South Dakota, North Dakota, Idaho,
Wisconsin. Nebraska and Delaware.
Mr.. Hopkins has just returned from
and previously had visited all of the
states where the party had candidates
in the field under various titles.
Analyzing the contests. Mr.. Hopkins
said that in Idaho, where two COLI
gfessmen and a state ticket have been
named. 1t is a neck and-neck race be
tween the democrats and the pro
gressives. In Pennsylvania, where the
progressives have nominated two can
tlidates, for United States senator and
n secretary for internal affairs. and IN
South Dakota, where a state ticket
end three candidates for congress have
been nominated, the race is between
the republicans and progressIves.
In Wisconsin, where a full ticket
has been presented" he said, 1T is
a walkover for the progressive associ-
alton tickets, the democrats having
lost their standing as a legal party.
In Nebraska the composite tfcilet
consists Of a progressive for congress

Mr.. Hopkins said that in some of

Former Premier
Lloyd George Cites Weaknesses of Conservative
Cabinet in Addresses in Scotland; May Form a
Platform Soon; Deplores Changing of Horses
While Crossing Stream; Birkenhead Speaks.

London, Oct. 2S.-(By The Associat-
ed Press. THE most important event
of Saturdays campaigning was the in
vaslon of Scotland by Lloyd George.
Supported by two of his cabinet col
leagues, Lord Birkenhead and Sir Rob
ert Stevenson Horne, the former prime
minister, made speeches at Glasgow
and Edinburgh, the two leading Scot
tish cities.
There were great crowds at both
places
The Glasgow meeting was held in
st. Andrews hall under the auspices
of the Scottish liberal council. Miss
Helen Frazer, national liberal candi-
date for governor, was among the
Mr. Lloyd George has not yet re-
vealed any constructive program; the
essence of his argument was the danger
of swapping horses while crossing
stream.
Platform Being Planned
Something is expected to come of the
week end party at the Earl of Bal
four's Scottish home at Whittingham
Mr.. Lloyd George, Austen Chamber
lain. Lord Birkenhead and Sir Robert
Horne will spend Sunday there. 1t is
believed they will devote themselves to
framing a platform or plan OF cam
paign.
The understanding between the con-
servatives and Lloyd George liberals is
spreading, although it is the cause of
much dissatisfaction among the ex-
tremists of both camps.
The conservative party organization
has declared that the question is one
which it leaves to the local bodies TO
decide but there are charges that the
conservative central office had lnfiu-
enced several candidates to withdraw
in the interest of the liberals.
Challenges Opponents
To his Glasgow supporters Mr. Lloyd
George delivered IA strong, although not
bitter. attack on the new cabinet His
argument was that the coalition gov
ernment was slowly but surely leading
the country out cf the troubles inflict-
ed upon it by the war. He declared
that the new cabinet was not compar-
able to his in point of ability and gave
Balfour MOST colorful endorsement,
describing his services to the country
as immortal. He challenged anyone to
advance sound reason why his gov
ernment should have been deposed.
Lord Birkenhead, speaking after
Lloyd George. paid his respects to the
new ministers more sharply than the
former premier had done. He said
that when Mr.. Bonar Law read the
names of his cabinet IN the papers ne
must have felt like Wellington, who,
when some new recruits were sent to
him. exclaimed:

will produce upon the enemy, but they

WHEELER WILL WIN
BY 5000, ASSERTS
CENTRAL COMMIT TEE
Democratic Organization Is
Confident of Victory in
Montana.
(Tribune's Helena Bureau, p,

Heelna. Oct. 2S.-prospects for
democratic success at the coming cleo
ton are very bright and arc improving
every day, according to ". w Nc
Dowell, vice chairman of the demo-
cratic state central committee.
During the past week the central
committee has been receiving reports
and estimates from precinct commit
teemen all over the state and most
of these bring encouraging news. In a
few cases these reports give estimates
of vote for Riddick for United States
senator in excess of the estimated
party vote but in the great majority
of instances the reverse is recorded
and the estimates show B. K Wheeler
cutting into the usual republican vote
for gains ranging from 5 to % per
cent.
May Garry Riddick's County
The democrats are counting on com
ing out of Silver Bow county with a
majority of 5000 for Wheeler, with a
majority of 1.500 for Wheeler in Deer
Lodge county, 1900 in Cascade, 1000
in Missoula county, and although the
committee would be well satisfied with
an even break in Fergus county. the
home of Riddick, and in Judith Basin
counties, many of Wheeler's support
ers are now confident that he will
carry both of these counties.
Conservative estimates Of WheeIer's s
majority in the state are placed by the
democratic central committee at 5000,
although tabulation of county esti-
mates would serve to increase this to
about 1900.
From reports received from com
mitteemen and from men who have
covered the state on behalf of the
democratic ticket the central commit
tee has placed the majorities for the
two senatorial candidates in the sew
eral counties as follows:
Estimated Maiorities
For Wheeler: Broadwater 300 to
400: Carbon 300; Cascade 1.50O;
Chouteau 100; Custer 100; Daniels
200; Deer Lodge 1900; Fergus 600;
Flathead 200; Gallatin 100: Granite

Basin 100; Lewis and Clark 400; Madi-
son 150; McCone 200; Mineral $50;
Missoula 1000; PNk 200; Powell 800:
Sanders 300; Sheridan 250; Silver Bow
5000; Toole 100.
For Riddick: Big Horn 400; Beaver
head 500; Blaine 300 to 400: Carter
800; Dawson 400; Fallon 400; Gar
field 200; Glacier 200; Golden Valley
200. Liberty 200; Lincoln 100;
Meagher 300; Musselshell 200; Phillips
500: Powder River 300: Prairie 500:
Richland 200; Rosebud $50; Saltwater
800; Sweet Grass 300; Teton 150;
200; Wibaux 200; Yellowstone 300.
AS to Pondera, Ravalli and Roose-
welt counties the committee feels that
it has about an even break with the
candidate.
