Democratic Hopes
The chief hope OF the Democrats
is that there win be so much
throat-cutting by the Republicans
that a split party viii result and
offer a chance for the election OF
q Democratic ticket in November
for the first time in modern memory.
In this hope, they are banking
largely upon Governor Pinchot, for
the expectation is general through
out Pennsylvania that the governor,
If defeated, win make an indie
pendent race for the Senate, backed
by the more pronounced dry ele-
ment of the State.
II Ware wins, constituting a wet
victory, Pinchot's independent candi-
dacy IL regarded as assured. II
Pepper wins, II is said to be doubt
ful IL Pinchot win make the race,
as Pepper has considerable follow

himself
The issue today appears to hang
on the enormous independent regis
tration, estimated at approximately
four hundred thousand. That these
votes viii ultimately decide the
winner Is generally conceded by un.
biased observers. The dominance
OF the wet and dry issue called
them out.
IN Philadelphia, Ware is conceded
a plurality. His managers claimed
this morning this plurality would
exceed two hundred and fifty thou.

the Philadelphia line with anything
like this number his nomination is
fairly well assured.

hope to hold It around $4,000, and
IL they are successful in this they
are confident the Mellon strong
holds in the western counties will

of the fur workers of New York and
Chicago in their fights for the Al
hour week and increased pay, Local
No. 81 of the International Fur Work
ers' Union of America, has called it's
members on strike to induce the Win
nipeg fur manufacturers to reduce the
working week from 49 to "A hours,

working conditions generally.
For months before the strike the
union carried on an extensive organiz-
ing campaign and enlisted practically
all the workers in the trade except
those of the large manufacturing
house of Elias Reich & Co., whose
espionage system caused the dis
charge of any Of it's workers joining
the union. Notwithstanding, when
the strike was called majority of
the employees of this company walked
out, and joined the union.

men have, according to the an

that the assembly line has been one

Motor company has paid particular
