 Sioux Falls, S. :, Oct. 1S.-Sena- tor Robert NJ. La Toilette, ,independ- ent candidate Tor president, an- nounced today he would spend the last two weeks of the campaign stumping In the middle west and east instead of going to the Pacific coast.
 The Wisconsin senator delivered a campaign speech here last night and rested today preparatory to moving on to Omaha, Neb.. for a speech Monday night.
 From Omaha, Mir. La Toilette will turn east, speaking Tuesday night in Rock Island, H., and in Peoria, ILL, Wednesday night. His engage ments after the Peoria speech re- main to be determined, although he has decided to end his campaign in the hall where the republican mas tional convention was held. | Senator La Toilette announced his intention of campaigning east of the Mississippi in telegram to his rum ming mate, Senator Wheeler of Montana, who is swinging eastward after a trip to the Pacific coast MT. La Toilette declared he believed the
 east is the real battlegrounds."
 The La Toilette telegram follows Following my telephone conver- sation with you from St. Louis have carefully canvassed national situation and conferred with trust ed advisers. All agree that inde- pendent-progressive ticket will win west if state and local organizations put on full steam from now until polls close.
 Prairie states are aflame with progressive sentiment, from Nlississ- | ippi to Rockies. Every advice I hhave received from Pacific Coast and FRocky Mountain states confirms your assurance Of success there.
 The talk of throwing election into congress is admission of dsfeat by our disheartened opponents. They are now bending every effort, not to elect their candidates, but to prevent decisive progressive victory. on Mo- vember 4.
 They cannot win by the direct vote of the people; we can. The election is ours if we carry progress sive states east of the Mississippi with large electoral votes. Reports from state managers confirm my conviction that people Of these states are aroused and ready to clinch cleo tion under aggressive leadership. T am confident that the people of the west will carry on. I am, therefore, going east from Omaha. The east is the real battle-ground. Am sending my tentative itinerary in separate wire. Trust you will be able to arrange your speaking dates so that olh efforts will be eff Actively coordinated for victory"

THIRD BOUNDARY
 MEMBER IS NAMED
Joseph R. Fisher, London
 Lawyer, Is Selected

London, Oct. 1S.--The appoint ment of Joseph II. Fisher us third member of the Irish boundary com- mission was announced today. He is q London barrister, we'll known writer on Irish affairs, is identified with the Ulster unionist party and was at one time editor of the Bell fast News Letter.
 Mir. Fisher Is believed to hold con- ciliatory views apd not to support the extremist not one inch" party of the Ulster premier, Sir James Craig, which party is against any change which will take the slightest amount of territory from the north ern area. It is believed the ap- pointment makes a deadlock less likely.
 The Anglo-Irish treaty provided for adjustment of the boundary be- tween northern and southern Ire- land by commission of three members, one each to be named by Ulster, the Free State and the Brit ish government. Ulster. objecting to any revision of the frontier which might cut into her territory, re- peatedly refused to name a repre- sentative. Amending legislation just completed by the British and Free State parliaments authorizes the ap- pointment of the. third member of the British government, the ap- pointee being considered a represen- tative of the northern Irish gov- ernment.
