KEYSTONE HOUSE
SEAT RACES WARM
Republicans Need O!d-Time
Majority to Save Several
in Pennsylvania.
Special Dispatch to The Star

HARRISBURG, October 25.--It is
going to take Pennsylvanfa's tradi-
tional Republican vote in presiden-
t1al years to save number OF Repi
resentatiyes on November 4, because
the keystone State is a battle-ground
for congressional seats to an extent
not known for a decade. La Toilette
partisans have disreg garded national
Issues and joined forces with Demo

sylvania districts and some OF the
aspirants have three and four noml-

atives outside of the States two big
cities are engaged in terrific tlgnts
and speakers of national repute have
been called in to help.
Signs of effective work have been
noted and conditions are gradually
improving in sections where month
ago conditions were alarming TO
county chieftains.
While hardly any La Toilette sup
porters have registered under his
party name. enough men active in
the Republican organization have
lined up the voters of their districts
to make likely the decisive maJorl-
ties characterizing Philadelphia and
Pittsburgh in important years.
Third Place Puzzling.
The interesting point about the
presidential election in Pennsyl-
vania is who is going to occupy third
place. Officers of the Democratic
State organization have become busy
in the last few days to hold their
strength in the cities. being satisfied
the old fashioned Democratic counties
will not be moved.
Drives have been started by Re
publicanS to regain the seats now
held by John J. Casey, Frank &.
Sites, Samuel Glatfelter and IA. II.
Cummings.
Although Representative w. NJ.
Croll lives in one of the old line

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. October 25--
Republican leaders, convinced that
President Coolidge is certain to carry
Indiana. are concentrating their
efforts now on winning solid dele
cation of 13 Republican Congressmer
from the State. They hope to retain
the eight Representatives they now
have and to redeem the five districts
that went Democratic two years ago
Three districts present interesting
situations and are occupying the
Ss$tiirht. aside from the intense
Interest dese'Aa to the State ticket
contest. In the eighth district. John
A. NJ. Adair Democrat, who served
several years in Congress. is essayine
to come back against Albert Nestal
who has represented the district since
1916.
Eyes on Senate.
Adair is a good campaigner. and
has gathered d following that makes
him a dangerous opponent. although
the district normally is Republican
II is reported Adair is anxious to
win in order to seek the Democratic
senatorial nomination in 1926.
In the fifth district three-corner-
ed fight is being waged. Anti
klansmen in both parties. believing
nominee. and j. r. Shannon. the
Democratic nominee, to be members
of the Invisible Empire. brought out
James Burke on an Independent and
anti klan ticket. Burke will dra Nv
from both parties. although the
belief is general that Johnson will
pull through.
Bolts Organization.
Billie HILL Republican nominee in
the fourth district. is making his
campaign on an anti-kIan platform
against Harry c. Garfield, Democratic
incumbent. Hill broke with the Re
publican State organization because
he said, the klan was interfering
with his campaign. and he refuses to
mention the name of Ed Jackso
klan- backed Republican nominee for
governor. Although the district is
Democratic, Hills friends believe he
has good chance to win.

Special Dispatch to The Star

SEATTLE, October 25-Breaking
the lethargic spell which has gripped
the State electorate since the direct pri-
maries. September 8. the Republican or
ganization during the last week ap-
parently has halted the coalition move
ment between the La Toilette and Demo
cratic party followers, has broken into
the railway brotherhood support which
La Toilette has held and is now feeling
a reaction from all parts Of the State
which indicates an increasing and rapid
ly developing swing toward the Repub-
lican national, congressional and State
tickets
The La Toilette movement has been
halted not only in the rural districts, but
in the hotbeds of La Folletteism, Seattle
and Tacoma, this is largely due to a sud-
den shift in Democratic ranks. Support
in Democratic ranks, which one week
ago seemed certain to be counted for
La Toilette. is slowy turning away
from the Wisconsin Senator to Cool
idge.
Business Aroused.
Business and industrial leaders are
aroused, and are taking a more active
interest in the campaign. Democratic
leaders, who have to this time been in
clined to stay out of the fight, are de-
manding that the party strength stay
with Davis or swing to Coolidge.
Other so-called Wilson Democrats are
with the La. Toilette movement
Reports from the agricultural centers
show a much better feeling, and Repub-
lican leaders are now predicting Cool
idgs and the entire ticket will carry the
State by at least $4,000 plurality. The
fifth congressional district only is in
doubt. JAMES DE K. BROWN.

MANCHESTER, N. H., October 25.-
With election only a matter of days
there is a last-minute rush of party
leaders in New Hampshire to bring
out the best campaigners and spell
binders.
With New Hampshire one of the
even States in the delegation, if. the
election of President is. thrown into
the Congress, there is considerable
speculation as to how the delegation
from the State would vote. 1t is
thought that the delegation will
stand divided half for Davis and half
for Coolidge.
Progressives claim La Toilette vii,
make a big showing in the State,
especially in the cities where the
Labor vote counts heavily.
The straw vote being conducted by
the Manchester Union, the States
only morning newspaper, shows Cool
,idge still leading Davis this week
by 3-to-1 margin.
Curtis d. Wilbur, Secretary of the
Navy, will come to Manchester as the
chief speaker at the night before
election rally to be held in the Queen
City on November 3.
Secretary Wilbur is the only cab
met officer taking a prominent part
in the campaign and agreed to come
to New Hampshire after being sought
by the director of the Republican
speakers bureau. Mr.. Bridges an

A. F. of L. Asks Workers to
RedoubIe Work for Pro-

Union labor was called upon last
night by the executive council of the
American Federation of Labor to re-
double its efforts for the election of
La Toilette and Wheeler.
In statement issued after a week s
session. largely devoted to discussion
OF the political situation, the council
declared reports from over the coun-
try indicate victory fer our cause
and the cause of the masses of the
people"
THE scattering few among trade
unionists who have given their sup
port TO reactionary candidates and
parties in no way decreases the en-
thusiasm with which the great mass
of trade unionists and wage earners
are supporting the independent can
didates," the statement continued
The working people of our country
have never been so whole -heartedly
united in any political effort as they
are in this great struggle for human
progress and freedom.
Attention to|eongress.
I've call upon trade unionists and
forward looking men and women gen
orally throughout our republic to re-
double their efforts in behalf of LA
Toilette and Wheeler in the few re-
naming days of the campaign, and
we urge a like enthusiasm in support
of progressive. forwardlooking can
ddates for the United States Senate

We warn against the calumnies
which are being circulated and which
will be circul1ed. and we warn
against the flood of money which is
being poured into those districts
where the hopes OF reaction are or
the wane. This election must not be
captured by canards or slush funds

SIOUX FALLS, S. Oak, October 25.
During the closing days of the
campaign in South Dakota the Re-
publicans are making the greatest
possible use of the slogan, Every
Republican vote cast in South Dakota
at the election on November for
La Toilette is vote in favor of a
Democrat for President of the United
States"
There is no doubt in the minds of
distinterested observers that La Fol-
lette will cut heavily into the Re-
publican vote in this State, but it is
believed he will not get sufficient
Republican votes to endanger Repub-
lican success.
The Republicans have such a large
normal plurality that it would fe-
quire almost a political revolution
for them to lose the State for their
national ticket. Four years ago they
led the opposition by $4,000 majority,
having this much of a lead over the
combined votes cast by opposition
parties in South Dakota for Presi-
dent. 1t is not expected the Repub-
lican lead at the election in Novem-
Der will be anywhere that of four
years ago, but the Republicans still
are confident they will carry South
Dakota for Coolidge by. not less than
10000.
AS La Toilette is fighting the
Democrats in Democratic States
where Democratic Losses to La Fol-
,lette hurt. the cause of the Demo.
Gratis, 1t IS stated by those claiming
to be in touch with the Democratic
campaign in South Dakota that the
voters of that party in this State
will line up practically solid for the
Democratic nominee for President.
While they have no hope Of carrying
South Dakota for Davis. they will be
loyal to their presidential nominee.

Big REGISTRATION
OF VOTERS IN. IDAHO
Gain in Total Seen for Both Cool
idge and Dayis-Senator Borah
Regarded Safe.
Special pispateh to The Star.

BOISE. Idaho, October 25-Heavy
registration of voters reported in all
Idaho districts can be interpreted as
a warning to Senator La Toilette. 1t
not only means more Gem State votes
for Coolidge. but an increase in the
total vote that will be given to John
w. Davis, as the careless and indif-
ferent voter responds to the get
out-the-vote" campaign.
The leading Democrats take cour-
age from the development of the past
week in registration, and venture the
assertion that Davis has an even
break with La Toilette, with the
democrats fast rallying to the
standard of John w. Davis" La Fol-
lette is losing ground every day, but
very few political observers believe
it is possible for Davis to achieve
second place in the Idaho presiden-
tial race. There seems to be little
doubt that the Republican ticket will
be successful from top to bottom,
and with wide margin. A strenu-
GUS campaign. against Senator Borah
is being waged by his Democratic
opponent, but little change In the
Borah vote Is expected.

DAVIS HELPS HIS RACE
BY VISIT TO TENNESSEE
Vote in State Likely to Fall Be
low 1920 Total as Interest
Appears Mild.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, October 25.--
With the November election only lG
days away, the great quadrennial
contest is not exciting any vast
amount of enthusiasm, at least in
several of the large middle Ten
nessee counties, and the lik elihood is
that no extraordinary vote will be
polled. Four years ago in the Cox
Harding contest a total of 426,000
votes was polled. Two years ago the
vote in the governor race fell below
250.000, and that figure will come
nearer the 1924 total in Tennessee
than the 1890 vote.
John W. Davis, the Democratic
nominee, spent two days in Nash
vile the first of this week, making
one public speech and an after-din-
ner speech at a dinner given him by
the Nashville Chamber of Commerce,
His public speech was delivered at
the Vanderbilt Stadium, which has
seating capacity of $4,000 His audi
ence was estimated at $4,000 to
$1,000. The impression created by
the candidate was highly favorable,
and it is assured he strengthened the
cause of the national ticket by his
visit.

Fine diamonds have a
definite value, no matter
how purchased, but they
are amenable to certain
accepted, economic rules.
The unwritten but
ever evident law of
quantity buying is fully
operative. The big
buyer gets first and best
choice Of the available
supplY-at the bottom
price.
No, it's neither un-
fair nor unnatural! Bulk
buying Jn e ans quick
turnover of big money
with a minimum of
clerical, transportation
and selling costs. The
same rule applies to,
every commodity, from
potatoes to platinum,
doughnuts to diamonds.
That is why, when we
say R. Harris & Co.
can save you money on
fine diamonds we state
an absolute fact.
We handle the largest
volume of diamond busi-
ness in Westinghouse
business that is not COM
monty equaled by a
single company in any
city.
Most of our diamonds
are procured by direct
importation. We re-
ceive shipments from
the Amsterdam lapi-
daries aggregating thou
sands of stones. We
do much of our own
mounting.
Is it any wonder that
the exporters give US
first consideration when
a large collection of fine
diamonds is received?
They know, if we buy
at all, we can buy all
and the price is made
attractively low.
The big point is that :
we share our advantage
with you, fully and con-
scientiously. We base
our prices not on the
current market for sin
gle stones, but on the
quantity price to US.
