country's electoral vote. To make a
strong showing he should carry the
south, the whole of it, or virtually the
whole of it. And he must carry New
York. And he must at least cut the
republican majorities in New Jersey,
Massachusetts,, Ohio, Indiana and Him
OILS down pretty low. That is to say,
he must show that he has personal
strength in these big northern states
which no other democrat is likely to de-
velop. That is the minimum for a
good showing.
Then in the course of the four years
between this election and the next one he
must make himself the recognized lead
er of the northern urban element which
has been attracted to him in this cam
paign. By becoming better known to
the people of the country than he was
when he was nominated this year, thru
speaking and through dicussing the is
sues as they arise, the governor may re-
move so much of the prejudice that has
worked against him this year as to
seem to the democrats four years from
now the strongest candidate they can
nominate. All this depends upon his
continuance in good health and his max
ing good showing on Election Day.

CAMPAIGNING WOMEN


r. ROM Hoover headquarters in Minneapolis
II comes word that the women on the Redwood
Falls Hoover committee formed one of the
few such committees reporting a one hundred
percent survey of the local political situation
They are to be commended for having done 6
finished piece of work-something more rare
than it should be among committees a rule.
The situation which reached such perfectio,
Of attainment here seems to have prevailed else
where in the state in lesser degrees and is an in
teresting sidelight on the awakened political In
terest of women. The Duluth Herald in recent
issue made the following interesting commentary
both as regards it's local and statewide situation
''Women were a little slow and uncer-
tain in coming into the political arena
after they won the ballot, but they GER
tainly have arrived now.
"Last night the Orpheum theatre was
crowded to standing room only for
meeting arranged by the Duluth Wom-
ems Hoover club, with a woman speak
er as the star attraction And the
speech that Ruth Hanna Mccormick
made there was as closely reasoned, as
logical and convincing, and as powerful
for vote-making as any speech that any
man has made in this campaign.
"a woman, Mrs. Warren E. Greene,
chairman of the Duluth Woman's Hoo
yer club, opened the meeting. A worn-
man, Mrs. Margaret Culkin Banning,
presided. And it was announced that
the Duluth Woman's Hoover club has
eight thousand members pledged to sup
port the Republican candidate.
"The Smith women, of course, are
working for their man eagerly; but an
outstanding factor in this years cam
paign, locally and nationally, is the
work of the Hoover women. They are
active and intensely interested, and they
are working intelligently and effectively.
"Much more than half, probably two
thirds, of this years enormously increas-
ed registration of voters is made up OF
women voters. 1t may be easy to prove,
when the returns are all in, that the
women decided the contest.
CLEARLY, women have arrived in poll
tics, and new day has dawned in which
candidates and party managers will
have to reckon with the women and their
point of view."
