Even with a nominal Republican nut ferlty the attitude of iseveriil Senators of the Progressive typo makes the power Of the nepubllcnne to concentrate upon a CStop rehenalvo legislative plan somewhat doubtful. Two Progressive Republicans, Lft Follette and l'olndcxter, now regu tar Republican nominee, voted for the Underwood-Simmons tariff law. A third, Kenyon of Iown, wns disposed to do the name but wan talked ot of It. The Republicans may lose two or morn of their nominees for the Senate, accord ing to surface indication".

Senator IVItm.iii, wno Is limning lor reccelaui, Two years pro S.im I'latt, the Republi can nominee for Senator, cumo within forty votes of defeating Senator New-land.-. Mr. I'latt has been i.cnomlnalcd by the Republicans to oppose Senator 1'lttman. Two year." ago the Socialist vote In Nevada for Senator was more than f,,fi00, while the candidates of the two old parties polled a little over 8,100 each. The Socialists have lenoiulnated tnr candidate who made the race two years ago and there Is n countrywide Interest among the Socialists In his election. The Socialists are concentrating their efforts on the Senatorial fight In Nevada In the hope of having nt least one representa tive In the I'nlted States Senate. The. .Missouri contest between Senator Herd, Democrat, und Waller Dickey, nominee of the Republicans, has been described as a "horse race." Dickey Is- wealthy and n good organizer and Is Klvlng Senator Reed a lot of trouble. The Republicans arc very confident of carrying MIssouM this ear for the na tional ticket. While most of the predic tions concede Missouri to the Demo crats and assume that Senator Reed will be reelected there Is an element of doubt In the situation that makes It worth while to keep nil eye on Missouri. I. a Follette Likely to Win. Senator I .a Follette seems to be rea sonably snro of reelection In Wiscon sin. In spite of fights In his own party the Senator usually receives the votes even of his conservative Republican friends In 11 general election, In addi tion to :i normal party following he has been able to rely on n large Democratic Note.

Hugbee, chairman of the Republican State Committee, In reply to this ques tion In Newark yesterday, "will carry New Jersey by a plurality of approxi mately 45,000." The State chairman backed up his predictions with estimates of Republican majorities In seventeen counties and Democratic majorities .In only four Hudson, Hunterdon, Sussex and Warren. 'I look for the election of the entire Democratic ntttontl nnd State tickets in New Jersey by not less than 25,000," said Kdward VS. drosscup, chairman of tho Democratic Stato Committee, In Trenton. Mr. Orosscup declined to go Into estimates of retults In the various counties. Republican Confident. The men running the Republican cam paign are brimful of confidence. They say New Jersey has never had a dupli cate of Republican activities In effective ness and enthusiasm In nny national or State campaign nnd they are convinced that l'rcsldent Wilson hasn't the shadow of a chance to win at home. One thing that has caused the Demo crats extreme alarm Is the fact that the Republican Progressives of New Jersey, who elected Wood row Wilson Governor In 1910. arc back In the Republican camp, with the possible exception of 6, or at the most 10 per cent. As New Jersey is normally a Republican State, It be comes then a iiuestlon of mathematics, the solution of which hasn't given the Democrats much comfort. Mr. Wilson had .",.1,000 votes under the combined vote for Roosevelt and Mix Taft In lull. Joseph S. Frellnghuysen, candidate for Fnltid Stales Senator, and Walter K. Kdge, candidate for tlovernor, have made what they call "a combined drive" from one end of the State to the other.

"Tho reason Is clear.

I have endeavored to pre sent a constructive programme which I .pledge myself to carry out If elected Oovernnr, as I Kurely expect to be." Mr. Frellnghujsen box made the tariff the princlpi! tlp-mc of his campaigning because, he says', he believes It to be the most Impoitnnt Issue that confronts the country to-day. He has nddressed a serlisx of questions to 5.000 Industrial concerns and from the replies lie had received he says he has learned that If Hie Underwood tariff law continues in licet after the war a vast number of llrms will have to quit business. t The race between Mr. rrellnghuyscn nnd United States Senator J amen 1.

MRS. BASS IS ANOHY Says Wilson's Suffrage Foes Are "Entirely Unscrupu lous" in Methods. Republican women and Democratic women met for a final bout In Carnegie Hall yesterday morning. The League for Political IMucatlon staged llio debate. Mrs, tleorge Haas of Chicago, head of the women's bureau of the National Demo- 0ratlc Committee, spoke for Hint party Htl, jjlss Helen Varlck Hoswell. who run, n,e woman's department for the Re- tiiil.llc.in National Committee, chain ploned the O.

The Democrats seemed to make the mnt noise and charges were freely made when the meeting ended that they had bought up the seat" and planted a "claque" to bombard Miss Hoswell. The Demociallc women retorted that buying! their seats In time merely proved that, like their party, they believed In true preparedness. TntchliiK the SpenUer's K.jr." Miss Frances A.

When Mr. Illy decided Hint Miss Kellor had had her share of questions Miss Aline Rhodes took up tho tight, while Mrs. Nelson O'Shnughnessy. one of the Petticoat Train orators, grew fairly frantic when the chairman failed to sec her nnd waved her handkerchief nt him till she neatly I fell over the railing. Her excitement' moved the audience to laughter, thereby! greatly surprising Mrs, Hass, who, deep III a detailed account of hard times that have hit this country during Republl can Administrations, didn't see Mr.. O'Shaiighnessyj "What are they laughing nt?" asked Mr. Kly. Mrs. O Shauchnessy took advantage of the paue to shoot her question, nice "with the women who don't under stand."

WHITMANINFAVOR OF PRISON REFORM llceord Shows No Politics Has Entered in His Admin istration. Close students of Oov. Whitman's nil ministration arc finding It easy to ills, prove the charge made by Thomas Mott Osborne that the State prisons are being used for political purposes. When Mr. Whitman became tlovernor he found a Demoerntlc State Superintendent of Prisons and four Democratic wardens. Three of tho Democratic wardens re main nnd the fourth, Mr. Osborne, rc. signed. Warden Osborne was appointed by Oov. Olynn nnd the npisjititment was Indorsed later by (lov. Whitman, who gave assurances that he winild not In tcrferc In prison reform experiments, ill spltu of himself, the tlovernor was I'rawn Into tlm controversy between Supt. Riley and Warden Oslnjrno over ibu transfer of prisoners from crowded Sing Sing lo vacant cells nt lireat .Meadow, the new fat m colony. Thu Gov cinor finally removed Mr. Riley. This was tho only case lu which he has removed a prison oillclal. and even Ins critics have been unable to point to any political motive In the selection of Supt. Carter. t-riends of the Oovcrnor are calling attention to his attitude towntd two im portant penal questions, These were the substitution of a prison faim for Slug Sing nnd the extension of the parole system. For ten years prison workers have advocated the abandonment of the unsanitary Sing Sing cell block for a farm colony, c.ov. Whitman signed the Sage bill, which tippropi lated I'.n'IO.OUO. of which ITeO.onn was to he ur-rd In renovating Sing Slug and $1,'.,50,immi lu development of the prison farm. The commissioners were to receive tin salary, and that politics might be kept out the measure provided that tluee of the present State olllclals the Sii-rln-tetidcnts of Prisons and of Public Works and the State Architect should reive, with two private citizens. The adoption of this plan means the end of the Sing Sing cell block and ultimate.)' onlv about iluii men will ever be at that prison at one time. The (lovernors friends point also to his warm support of W.uden llo-ner at (lre.it Meadow, vvhvic a squad if twenty n-.eii Is to be put to work In the opt n, attended only by an unarmed guanl. Men In this prison voted some time ag against the Intioductlon of the Mutual W'llfare league.
