MARCUS COOLIDGE
GIVEN EDGE TO WIN
IN MASSACHUSETTS
Democratic Candidate Con-
ceded Advantage With Dry
Law Chief Issue.
BY 6. GOULD LINCOLN.
stan Correspondent of The Star.

BOSTON, Mass, October 25.-With
its back to the wall, the Republican or
ganization of Massachusetts, Is battling
to prevent the representation Of the
Bay State in the Senate by two Demo-
cratic Senator's. Such thing has never
happened since the Civil War, when the
Republican party was organized.
David i. Walsh, the first Democrat to
be elected to the Senate in that period,
is out to elect this year Marcus A. Cool
idge, Democrat, to the seat now occu-
pied by Senator Gillett, Republican. II
he succeeds the little city of Fitchburg,
Mass, will be the proud possessor of
two United States Senators, q thing
unheard of before in the annals of Mas
sachusetts politics.
This Is an unusual year, however, in
politics. Here in Massachusetts as in
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Illinois, old
line Republicans are kicking over the
traces and threatening to vote the
Democratic ticket on The wet issue. If
1t were not for the wet issue, there
seems little doubt that, despite the
business depression, Massachusetts, would
elect Republican to the Senate on
November 4, Thousands of Republicans
are of the reservation because of their
ment in this State.
Say Butler Has Chance.
Even so, the Republican leaders con-
tinue to insist that their candidate.
William M. Butler, still has a chance.
II only an outside chance, for election.
They say that in the last week or two
his prospects have improved, not be-
cause Of any strength of his own, but
because OF the weakness of his oppon-
ent, Marcus A. Coolidge.
Inc betting odds today are 8 to 10
against Butler, the Republican nomi-
nee for the Senate But the Republic
cans are girding their loins for the
final drive. They figure that their
organization, which they say is far
more perfect than that of the Demo-
Gratis, may in this off year election turn
the trick for Butler.
The political observer coming to this
State finds a strange situation. The
Democrats claim that they will win, not
because Of the strength of their can
dtdate, Coolidge-who, by the way, is
no relation to the former President
but because OF the weakness of Will
liam M. Butler. the Republican nomi-
nee. At the same time, the Republican
leaders lay their claim to victory on
the ground that Marcus A. Coolidge has
proved a distressingly weak candidate
for the Democrats
No Personal Appeal.
Neither Butler nor Coolidge has a
personal appeal to the voters. Neither
Is able to awaken in the electorate q
spark Of enthusiasm for themselves
