Tiik Scn herewith present n sum
Blary of political conditions In nil the
States on the fevc of election with the
bet possible forecast which can he
marie with regard to enqh it thin time.
The Miihjolned reports represent the
Views of Impartial arid competent cor
respondent and. ate presented without
bias.
On the face "of these reports Mr.
Hughes would appear to have the bet
ter of It. The States which seem to
be pretty surely In the Itcpuhllcan
column have n total electoral vote .of
280. Against th.lV' Mr! Wilson would
term to lie sine ol only 15 .votes.
The States which are decidedly
doubtful from these reports are Ohio,
Washington. West Virginia. Wiscon
sin. Coloiado. Kentucky. Missouri and
Neluasku. These States have a total
Vote of 7. Should Mr. Wilson carry
them all he would! mill lack 15 votes
Of the necessary 266.
But the Indications are that some of
thee States will so Republican. Ohio
U one where the chance seem'to favor
the Republicans, a turn In sentiment
lielng observed there recently. This
1. true also of West Virginia and Wis
eonsln. MIssomH and Kentucky look
like an even break from these re
ports. Following aie the summaries of con
ations: '
Alabama's TweUr for Wllsoa.

simpiv be lagged foi Wilson awl left

Arliona Is sometime classed as a
doubtful State, but the most recent re
potts f i om theie say that If It still may
ti .la.?d as doubtful It has Democratic
l.anlnns so in onouiu-ed as to maJie a
Renulillran victor) rather unlikely.
There oi undoubtedly a change of
manv votes for Hughes as a' result of
Theodore Roosevelt's assaults on Wil
son's Mexican policies', but It Is sin
cerely doubted that the efToot wa .uf
tlclent to throw the electoral vote over
to the Republican, side. Republicans
who hae hope of winning the State point
oat that W son In 1?1- ban a plummy
of onlv 154 over the combined, vote for
Taft and Roosevelt and that this -Is not

Illinois Women In First Voir.
Illinois. whoe Iwenty-ulne x-otes may
cut quite a fleure, Is wondering what Its
women are nobis: to do. Thrre are nearly
600,(ion of these women xolers, Bolnsr to
the polls for the first time In a I'resl-
dentlal election. The State Is normally
Republican by more than snn.nnii. It
will take a bit; majority of these women
voters to overcome this majority and
throw the Stale to Wilson. There l
no way of estimating the nrenonderniice
of sentiment aninnc them The Repub
licans ate flKurimc. however, that most
of them will vole the way their hus
bands do. which will clxe them the
State.

notwithstanding the fact that the Adam
son law has valued a laiKe Mock nf la
bor votes foi Wilson In the facility and
railroad cltle. The Democrats haxe
been doing their utmost to corral the
women's vote by an appeal on the peace
proposition.
Roosevelt s recent visit helped the Re
publicans greatly, and a careful canvass
made by them Indicates that the State
will go for Hughes. Kven If .'. per

Wilson tit- Republicans will haxe 3fl,oiiu

Recent reports from Michigan are
somewhat better for the Republicans
and theie Is every Indication that they
will carry the State now, but with a
small margin, In spite of the fact that
four years ago both Taft and Roosevelt
Individually got more than the Wilson
vote, Henry Kord has been the cause
of much trouble to the Repuhllcans, par
tlculaily In Detroit. His advertising
campaign baa been extensive and some
what effective, and the Kord Influence
will result In cutting down Republican
pluralities. Detroit Is normally Repub
lican by :o,(ino, but this year It will
probably glxa Wilson a slight leud.
This, however, will certainly he wiped
out In the rest of the State, Ihe tural
vote being almost solidly with the Re
publicans. The Adatuson law has given
the Republicans a lot of trouble In De
