NY WILL p. KENNEDY.

HE further is convinced that Roose-
Welt will probably get better vote IN
each of the six congressional districts
than the Democratic members who
are seeking reelection, all OF whom
are likely to be reelected and at least
four of whom will win with a larger
vote than two years ago-Represent-
ative William P Cole, TowSon: Rep
resentative Ambrose J. Kennedy. Bal
timore: Representative Stephen w.
Csambrill. Laurel, and Representative
David j. Lewis, Cumberland. Repre-
sentative T. Alan Goldsborough, Dem
ton, and Representative Vincent j.
Palmisano, Baltimore, both have bit
TER opposition. The Republican State
HEADQUARTERS says that both will GER
tainly be defeated.
s'Senator George L. Radcliffe, chair
man of the Maryland Democratic
Campaign Committee, with elaborate
headquarters in the Emerson Hotel,
saws: I'VE carried the State for Roose-
Welt four years ago with majority OF
$50 900. We will carry it this time
Nv big majority-at least 10000,
probably a great deal more. We Will
carry practically all of the counties
by very substantial majorities. and the
city of Baltimore by surprisingly
large vote. The Sun-papers poll shows
Il counties for Roosevelt ana only
two for Landon-We have decided
chance to carry one of those two,
maybe BOTH
Garrett and Carroll Doubtful.
The two doubtful counties as Cam
paign Manager Radcliffe sees them
are Garrett and Carroll. In Garrett
the Democrats gained 1900 on new
registration. The Republicans had
previously had 400, and their reg
istered plurality is now $500. The
Republicans carried Carroll County
In the Sun poll by several hundred.
William P. Lawson. the Republican
State chairman, claims: I'VE will
carry the State for Landon and will
elect Republican Congressman in each
Of the six districts. I do not know
OF a weak spot in the congressional
districts unless it is Allegheny County.
In the city of Baltimore Landon will
win with a small majority and the
counties will bring in majority OF
$4,000 to 10000 for him. Some coun-
ties will give the largest majority ever
given to Republican candidate" and
he specified Talbot. Cecil, Carroll,
Hartford, Washington, Montgomery
and St. Marys. Allegheny County
in the last election gave Gov. Nice
$780," Chairman Lawson recalls,
land I think We should break even
this time. We have better chance
than last time in Baltimore County,
and I expect we will break about
even. Chances in Dorchester County
look excellent. We are relying on
Somerset to turn in big majority
for Landon. In Caroline County o.
Straughn Lloyd. Salisbury, candidate
for Congress, will defeat Representa-
tive T Allen Goldsborough in his
home county. The labor vote is in
some plants solid for the Republican
ticket. The colored vote is in good
shape for our candidates. The Re-
publican campaign in Maryland is
well financed and we will have all the
funds we need on election day" He
explained that the State Central
Committee had done the campaign
financing with money collected within
the State"
Jackson Also Confident.
Mayor Howard w. Jackson of Bal
timore, whose position as party boss"
Is being challenged by Senator Mil
lard Tydings, Is just as sure as is
Campaign Manager Radcliffe that the
Democrats are going to make clean
sweep, and with mounting MAORI
ties. He says: Il always hesitate to
predict the results of an election. OF
course, could guess any figure as to
what President Roosevelts majority
might be. Predicated on the result
OF the registration in Baltimore, which
gave the Democrats 10000 majority
over the Republicans and $4,000 over
All-and also the information I have
as to the very favorable results of the
Democratic registration in other
counties, do not hesitate to predict
q majority in 1886 at least as great as
1t was in 1882, in which year Presi-
dent Roosevelt carried Maryland by
l30,130. There isn't any question in
my mind about the reelection of the
six Democratic Congressman from
Maryland, all of whom are candi-
dates"
ON election day, November 8, 1882,
Maryland gave Roosevelt 3l4,3l4 and
Hoover 1874 ,184-a majority of 130,130
BY counties the vote was: Allegany,
