A Bitter Fight In Missouri Is Up to The Voters St. Louis. Mo., Auk. I.—The political fate of Senator James A. Reed, long a figure in democratic national poll ties, wan at stake today as Mlssoouri voters went to the polls to select nominees in the state wide primary election. Breckenridge Long, former third assistant secretary of state durring Wil son's administration, and Robert I. Young, of St. Joseph, are Reed's oppo nents for the democratic senatorial nomination, with the choice apparently lying between Ixmg and Reed. Throughout the campaign Long has enjoyed the indirect, at least, support of former President Woodrow \\ llson. Ills letters to a St. Louis newspaper and Missouri politicians assailed Reed's record Iti the Senate and charged in substance that the senior Missouri senator had deserted the democratic party. They were interpreted throughout the state as endorsing the candidacy of lamg, although the latter's name was never directly mentioned. The names of seven aspirants for the republican senatorial nomination appear on today's ballot. While none can lie strictly regarded as the ‘‘old guard" candidate, R. R. Brewster, Kansas City attorney, conies nearest to earning that title. Hacked by a strange coalition of “standpatterrs,'’ he is certain to draw a big vote in Kansas City and St. Louis. A Hot Campaign The republican campaign, slow to get under way as compared with the Reed-Long fight, developed a bitter rivalry between Brewster and State Senator David M. Proctor, also of Kan sas City, durring the closing days of the race. This rivalry and the re sentment of adherents to other can didates against the formation of the Brewster "coalition." resulted in the exchange of several heated and pointed communications. Os the five republican candidates — Attorney General Jesse W. Barrett; John C. McKinley, former lieutenant governor; William Sacks. St. Ixiuis millionaire banker; Colonel John H. Parker, commandant of the 7th army corps area, and Sterling P. Bond, St. l^ouis —the first two named are con sidered "in the race.” Proctor, who stumped the state in a thorough fashion, claims 75 per cent of the countries, while backers of Brewster are equally sanguine. Greatest interest in toady's election, however, is focused upon the demo cratic senatorship. Reed and Lon;, have held the political spotlight for nearly three months by their thorough and vigorous stumping activities. Reed in the Cities Senator Reed's backers declare he will carry the larger cities of the state —especially St. Louis and Kan sas City—by substantial majorities, while Long's greatest strength undeniably lies in the rural communities. Reed’s last minute efforts were concentrated on these districts. Each has promised if defeated to take the stump for the winner against the republican nominee. The trend of the women's vote in today’s election is problematical. A questionnaire sent out from Reeds’ state headquarters here tp all county organizations, which cautioned against blase reports, brought the response that approximately 85 per cent of th< women would cast their ballots as he men of their families voted. Fair weather today, which will per mit the farmer vote to get to the polls, will undoubtedly enhance Thong's chances of victory. Candidates for all state and city offices far outnumber thos ( > of previous years. More than 300 men and women filed their declarations with the secreaty of state for nomination for United States senator, congressman, state superintendents public schools, supreme perinendent of public schools, supreme judge, judge of the circuit court and court of appeals. -a Watch for the dollars.

PROGRESSIVES AND SERVICE MEN COMING TO THE NEXT CONGRESS ? Washington, July 28—Congress is 1 due for an Infusion of "young blood," ! as this year’s campaign finds many of the veterans of the legislative halls I retiring to their homes, either from choice or because of the popular will. Not only will younger men. in many ' cases, occupy the seats now held by stalwarts of another day. but men of a younger political era, indications are, ’ J will be more numerous in the next con | gross than In many years. I The "young bloods," It now appears I likely, will lie largely In two groups—(the socalled progressives, and the seti vice men, veterans of the world war. The progressives bid fair to infuse new life into the progressive block in f the senate by increasing its numbers, ' while in the house the already considerable representation of war veterans I probably will be substantially incroas--1 ed. "Uncle Joe" Cannon, patriarch of Patitol Hill, who win retire, rounds out 4<i years service in the House next Marell. Fordney of Michigan, joint author with Senator McCumber. of the ' Fordney-McCumber tariff, now under discussion in the senate, Is retiring after 24 years’ continuous service. Rod- ' enberg. Illinois, after 20 years, has declined to run again. Mondell, Wyo--1 tiling. is a candidate for senate, after ,126 years in the House. In the senate, McCumber, North Dakota, fourth oldest in length of ser- . vice in the Upper Chamber, leaves as ; ter 24 years, being defeated for the Republican nomination by former Governor Lynn J. Frazier. Culberson, Texas. . a candidate for re-election. Warren. , Wyoming: Nelson, Minnesota, and Lodge, Massachusetts, are the only > mes who were in the senate when Me('umber was first elected. McCumber is 64. Page, of Vermont, probably will not be a candidate again, after serving (since 1908. Williams, Mississippi, 68, elected in 1911, refuses to he a candi- ( date for re-election. Question of Senority Passings of the captains who for so ; long have kept the Capitol ship on an even keel, at once opens up the perplexing question of sonority rule In appointing committee chairmen. Heretofore, with few exceptions, it has been the unwritten law that point of service shall determine chairman- , ships. The most notable deviaton was the appointment of Pap. Madi I den. 111., to the chairmanship of the ( appropriations committee. I Then senority question in the sen ate is particularly annoying to party ; leaders. Witli McCumber out, Smoot, Utah, ordinarily would succeed to head of the finance committe. But Smoot is on the appropriations committee and cannot hold both posts. If he should decide to remain with appropriations, LaFollette, Wisconsin, whom conservatives have tried “to read out” of the Republican party, would, under senority rule, succeed to the finance chairmanship. That is not all the aim of the Old Guard who are opposed too liberals in important senate posts. A similar situation develops in the foreign relations committee. Should ' be defeated for re-election. Borah, Idaho, whose ideas on world relationships are not in accord with Old Guard policies, approaches the ( chairmanship. McCumber at present is the ranking Republican. Briefly the situation which con fronts standpatters simmers down tc i this; While seniority rule as a usual thing is satisfactory, certain instances arrive when the committee must be brave to deviate from the long established unwritten law. This appears to be the year—with two Republican “insurgents" in line I for two of the most important com mittee posts in the senate. t e Chicago—What is claimed to be the world's finest collection of rare violins for which a quarter million , dollars was paid arrived in Chicagc I yesterday for delivery to local music I dealers, the purchasers. The "array (of masterpieces” was formerly the property of Dwight J. Partello foi years American consul at Berlin. II In the collection are 20 violins, three 2■ viols and one cello.

PURDUE HAS AN ■ EXHIBIT AT FAIR if Educational Exhibit by Agricultural Department Is v A Big Feature y The Purdue Educational Exhibit. ( . prepared by the Agricultural Extension Department of the University is < one of the big special features of the ] Northern Indiana Fair at Decatur. The , Indiana Fair Association upon the re- . ” Indiana Fuirr Assoc iation upon the re- , quest of County Agricultural Agent I tusche. The exhibit Is both attractive and instructive and should be a 1 great attraction for all those interest- ’’ ed in better agriculture. The latest and best ideas along the S lines of animal husbandry, poultry, I ' dairy, horticulture, soils, crops and i . home economies are set forth in the < ' exhibit. The animal husbandry secS tion is on liog feeding and brings out ’ the value of a protein supplement with | : * corn, when hogs arc* on clover. This 1 is a common question among hog ? (men and the exhibit gives positive re- - suits of experimental work done at ‘ ' the Purdue Experiment Station along ■- this line. 1 r The poultry section recommend. that more mash ard less grain be given as a summer ration. Many poultry 1 keepers cut down their egg supply by neglecting the mash in summer tceding. In the dairy section the value of L gumes in the ration for milk produc ' tion is brought out. Both good and ' poor rations and the results of feed- ’ ing each are shown in such away that there is no doubt left in one’s mind a to the value of a legume in .he ration. 5 The horticulture section deals with the importance of certified seed pota , ’ toes, and explains the difference be ’ tween "certified seed” and "U. S. in'(spected” seed sold by many dealers "i throughout the state. The soils and crops section will bea; | (upon the importance of conserving 1 manure, applying limestone, buying 1 phosphate and growing legumes. A (section on Home Canned meats will I be of special interest to the women. t I The complete exhibit will cover over I fifty feet of wall space in the old Art building. A number of the Extension Staff will accompany the exhibit t- . - Decatur and stay 'here during tiie fair s to explain it and answer questions in (regard to the work being done at Pur . I due. )• • ;COLLEGE SPORTS TO BEGIN SO9M — , Indianapolis, July 28 —(Special to 1 Daily Democrat) —Within six weeks k football players of the colleges and 0 1 high schools will start real training ’ ' for the 1922 season. The track men will begin light work outs while the o l • , distance runners will start work for il ! the annual cross country runs, that have become a feature of Autumn ath-( h etics in the schools. Basketball men; 0 ' will be getting their basket eye back ' by tossing a few at the circle and back board. Os course the baseball season i- will not be over, but base ball only 0 holds a place in college and high school athletics during the spring. il While most of the sport pages will s be devoted to baseball the amateur: e athlete will be training for the day. )- when his name will appear in the head line as the hero of the gridiron, or the (■ h winner of the cross country race, e College and high school boys have >■ been taking care of themselves. They have carefully planned and selected the work that will harden and toughen ,e the muscles for the game they are to e play this fall. n Three Butler college athletics for 0 example refused oilice work this sum c mer. Wally Middleworth, Hal Griggs v and Dwight Kiser, are working as care penters. Harry Duttenhaver the big ir Butler college football center is labori. ing as a farm hand in Florida. Dave ie Konold, end is working hard at a sheet metal works factory in Elwood.
Some college and high school athletes have sought hard work to find not only good health but real pay in money. Others have held at athletics to prepare themselves for the school year. John Moore, and Henry Dlth mer. two Purdue men and Bob Knittash and Henry Churchman two Indiana University athletes have kept in shape by swimming. These men are among the best swimmers in the country as they proved in the national championship race a week ago. it Is safe to say that nine out of ten of the college and high school athletes have selected real hard work this summer to put themselves in shape for athletics and to earn money to help themselves through school. _• NATIONAL CAMPAIGNS TO BE RUN BY RADIO : Washington, July 28.—( United Press). —Two big political radio-phone broadcasting stations probably will be set up by the Republican and Democratic national committees for campaign purposes. Political publicity would be circulated throughout the country by these stations, which would facilitate cam paigning. Tenative proposals have been submitted to Chairman John T. Adams oi the Republican national committee for setting up a $25,000 station on the iroof of Munsey building, where Republican headquarters are located. Work will not be begun on the station until congress places iLs sanction I on th? suggestions of Secretay of Commerce Hoover for government supervision of radio telephony. Judge Cordell, chairman of the Democratic national committee, also has | signified his intention of setting up a station if the Republicans carry out their plans. Prospects of a long summer session of congress has lent impetus to the new suggestions. Many political leaders will be retained here and the radiophones would enable them to get in some campaigning while remaining in ' the capitol.
