defeated James P. Glynn, his present

a total vote of about $1,000. In a

Glynn, although O'Sullivan has the
advantage of being on both Dem

was elected by more than II 900 in 1920.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. November /.
ALL Democratic candidates to be
voted upon in Arkansas at Tuesdays
presidential election will win by
large majorities unless the miraculous
occurs. Democrats outnumber the
Republicans in this state more than
three to one.
There has been less interest mani
Tested in the coming election than
any in the memory Of oldest poll
ticians. All Democratic candidates
for senator congressman and presi-
Dental elector have opposition, but
none of them has carried on an ac-
tive campaign. The La Toilette
Wheeler Independent Party has presi-
Dental elector candidates on the
ticket, but conservative estimates
give them but a few thousand votes.
Labor leaders in Arkansas will sup
port the Democratic ticket.
Senator Joe T. Robinson, Demo-
cratic leader in the Senate, will be
re-elected by an overwhelming ma
jorfty. His opponent is Charles F.
Cole. Republican, United States at
torney for the eastern district OF
Arkansas. All the seven present
members Of the House Of Representa-
tives have been ,renominated, and
their election Tuesday is conceded,
although all have Republican op-
ponents. -
The Republicans have been waging
campaign the past three weeks

has been no stump speaking" State

BUT COOLIDGE RATED FAVORTTE
Stra,U Votes ShO,c President Has SLight Lead Oper
Combined Strength of Daris and La Fol-
lette, With Latter Slipping.

There . one basis on which to
make prediction. Some eighty
straw ballots have been taken
throughout the State Averaged
these give Coolidge about SIS per cent
of the vote, La Toilette 35 and Davis
10 per cent. With 1000, 900 votes, the
estimated ballot for Iowa. that would
give Coolidge $50, 900; La Toilette, $780,
600, and Davis. 100000. 1t is believed
the straw poll gives Coolidge a
heavier vote than he will poll Novem-
Der 4.
Faetors for Coolidge.
1t is believed that Coolidge will
carry the State. because Iowans are
primarily Republicans. because bust
ness conditions are improving-the
farmers see profits in sight-and con-
seQuently the merchants see more
business coming. Labor conditions
are better, proved by the fact tina,
the Sioux City Federal Labor Bureau
placed more men on jobs this year
than ever before, and there were few
er bank failures.
The X. X. X. is strong in Iowa. and
that organization backs Coolidge
here. Republican speakers enjoyed a
much warmer reception In all parts
Of the State than those of any other
party. The La Toilette furry seems
to have reached it's peak with the
coming OF higher prices and has been
on the decline since, and the people
fear depression in the period between
election and inauguration should
other than a Republican be elected
Those facts tend, il Is believed, to
keep Iowa in the Republican column.

by Republican campaign commit

800 convicts in the Moundsville
penitentiary
For years past" said the state
ment, "the Republicans have been
assessing the contractors who are
utilizing West Virginia's convict
labor for the manufacture Of con-
Vlct-made goods. Every time, ac-
cording to information quite gen.
eral in West Virginia, that the Re-
publican slush fund collectors
squeeze large campaign tribute
out of the contractors, the con-
tractors recoup themselves by
squeezing more work out Of the
convicts
1T is alleged that the Republi-
cans, in their effort this year to
outdo all past campaign collections,
have exacted from the peniten-
tiary contractors $4,000, and from
ofhcials. guards. etc, at the peni-
tentiary $25,0c0, with the result
that the contractors this year bore
down additionally on the conyicts
and forced them to increase their
prison output to a point beyond

MANCHESTER, n. H, November
ALL three parties are making a
last minute drive to bring out the
Hampshire. Conservative political
observers give Coolidge the State
over his nearest opponent by nearly
2-to-1 majority. The real test will
come for second place, many predict
ing that La Toilette will outrun Da-
Wis enough in the industrial centers,
where La Toilette workers have CEN
tered their activities, to emerge ahead
of the Democratic standard bearer.
Rev. George Chalmers Richmond, a
La Toilette campaign speaker from
Los Angeles, ran into trouble in Con-
cord Wednesday night when he is said
to have called President Coolidge a
rascal" His address, delivered from
the steps Of the New Hampshire State
house, was plentifully sprinkled with
praise for his favorite candidate.

ordered City Marshal George A. S.
