POLITICAL SEERS BEGIN TO PEACE ELECTOR VOTES Leaders of Three Parties See Davis Triumph in the House. Times Stiff Correspondent CHICAGO, Sept. 24.—With election day six weeks away, political prognosticators abo tuthe three national headquarters in Chicago are beginning to line up the probable position of the electoral college of the three candidates today. From reports on local conditions, claims of various leaders and firsthand information from State leaders, the following is the line-up at this date: For Davis —New Hampshire, 4: Rhode Island, 5: Delaware, 3; New Jersey. 14; Maryland. 8; West Virginia, S; Virginia, 12; North Carolina, 12; South Carolina, 9; Georgia, 14; Florida, 6; Alabama. 12; Mississippi, 10; Tennessee. 12; Louisiana. 10; Kentucky, 13; Missouri, 1$; Texas. 20; Oklahoma, 10; Arizona, 3; New Mexico 3; Nebraska, 8; Arkansas 9. Total electoral vote, 223. For La Follette —Wisconsin. 13; North Dakota, 5; South Dakota, 5; lowa. 13; Montana, 4; Minnesota. 12. Total vote, 52. For Coolidge—Maine. 6; Vermont, 4; Massachusetts, 18; New York, 45: Pennsjlvania. 38; Ohio. 24; Indiana. 15; Illinois, 29; Nevada, 3: Utah, 4; Oregon, 5; Washington, 7; Wyoming, 3; Idaho, 4; Colorado, 6; Connecticut, 7. Total vote, 218. Doubtful —Kansas, 10; Michigan, 15; California, 13. Total 38. With this line-up and La Follette holding his 52 votes, neither Coolidge nor Davis, could win the necessary 266 votes with the thirtyeight doubtful State votes. La Follette leaders are claiming California and there is a trend away from Coolidge in Illinois, according to indications. In Kansas, there is a tremendous swing to Davis due to the Klan split and the candidacy of William Allen White for Governor on an antl-Klan ticket. In New Jersey the Democrats are organized as never before and New Jersey Republicans are “peeved” at Coolidge for his, alleged slighting of Senator Edge. In Delaware Democrats claim certain victory because of the nomination of a Du Pont on the Republican ticket for United States Senator. A Du Pont was never known to win an election in Delaware, Democrats claim. With the election almost certain to go to the House, leaders in the three parties declare Coolidge stands no chance of election. Rather than risk election of Charles W. Bryan m the Senate, leaders declare an eastern State will swing to Davis rather than La Follette and that the Democratic nominee will go over in the House.

THERE IS a certain unexplainable feeling that goes with hale and hearty old age —it is a feeling of happiness, of care unknown, of reborn youth! But rheumatism—t hat deadly malady which has caused so many to surrender to the woes of pain and suffering—caused so many to forego the pleasures of life—caused so many to be dependent. Why suffer from it? To be helped about, crutches, canes and willing hands always needed to assist you here and help you there.

BEGIN HKKS TODAY Robert Koran. nwapapcr correspondent, accompanies the Theodor* Roosevelt expedition into Africa in li'liO. They arrive at Mombass.t. ilus "gateway to British Ear - . Africa ’ anil then make the railroad journey to their first camp on the graine-erowdod Kapiti Plains. With Colonel Koose velt are his son. Kermit. and three scientific members of ins staff—Major Edgar A. Mcarns, Edmund Heller and J Allen Loring. After a wonderfully successful 'hooting trip in the Sotik country, tieexpedition eanips for more hunting at a farm called Saigai-Sai. Going next to N’aivasha. the party meets with more good sport. They are at Nairobi during race week. The Nairobi Club gives a ball and the stewards of the East African Club give a dinner in honor of Roosevelt. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY SHE race meeting was memorable for the fact that Colonel Roosevelt was present, and also because it was the first occasion for the annua! Produce stakes to lie run. This was for horses and mares born and bred In British East Africa. Kermit rode in this and another race with considerable judgment and skill, but without the good fortune to win. The race track was a couple of miles outside of Nairobi and on the edge of the Athl Plains. Wild game of all kinds could be seen with the naked eye just beyond the track. On more than one occasion, lions had been hunted and killed on the track, and more than once in the history of the Turf Club lions had been so unsporting as to interrupt training gallops over the eoqrse. ; The whole of East Africa, with the commencement of the new week, turned its thoughts to the public banquet which was to be given to Colonel Roosevelt in the Railway Institute at Nairobi on the evening of Aug. 3. Every one, officials and settlers alike, was feverishly awaiting his speech in the hope that it would bring forth a favorable expression of opinion on the country and its future prospects. Everybody felt that the country’s

making or breaking rested on the words of Colonel Roosevelt, for they knew that his publicly expressed opinions would carry very great weight in England. CHAPTER XIII Nairobi’s Banquet to Roosevelt Two hundred officials, settlers, missionaries and business men assembled In the Railway Institute of Nairobi to do honor to Theodore Roosevelt. If there had been more space available, the gathering would have been larger. But it. was a representative body of the people who KERMIT AND HIS AFRICAN SERVANT, JUMA. were giving their time and labor to the development of British East Africa. The women of the community, and those who had been unable to se-

cure seats at the tables, were seated round the /edge of the hall so that they could ull hear Colonel Roosevelt's speech. It was plain to see that every one present was in a state of suppressed excitement, for the importance of tlie distinguished American’s words to the country's future had been realized by all. NThe hall and tables had been taste fully decorated by the ladies, and be hind the chairman's seatjhe national Hags of Great Britain and tlie United .States formed a frame Work for the coat of arms of the Roosevelt family The acting governor, Sir Frederick Jackson, presided at tlie banquet, with Colonel Roosevelt on his right and Kermit on his left. Also at the governor's table were tlie Roman Catholic bishop of East Africa, Lord Delamere, and a number of the most prominent residents of the country. The toasts of tho king and the president of the United Slates were accompanied by the playing of the re speetive national anthems by the native band of the Third Battalion of the King’s African Rifles. After Sir,Frederick Jackson had expressed the great pleascure of all East Africans in entertaining Colonel Roosevelt and in assisting him to make his visit both pleasant and successful, the town clerk of Nairobi, Captain E. L. Sanderson, rose and read the address of welcome, which had been printed on silk and enclosed in a very handsome elephant tusk mounted in silver and suspended on a silver chain. After Sir Frederick Jackson had presented the address and the tusk to Colonel Roosevelt, he called upon Major C. J. Ross to present him with a souvenir of East Africa on behalf of the American residents of East Africa. In a pithy speech, this hardened old veteran of many arduous campaigns and adventures presented Colonel Roosevelt with a magnificent rhinoceros-foot tobacco-box, mounted in silver and with silve- replicas of a rhinoceros and buffalo head upon the lid. Sir Frederick Jackson then proposed tho health of Theodore Roosevelt. The toast was received with a remarkable outburst of wild enthusiasm. every one springing to his feet and singing, ‘‘For he’s-'a Jolly good fellow,’’ with true Highland honors. Colonel Roosevelt was obviously deeply touched and moved by the genuine warmth of his reception. This ovation was renewed when he rose to his feet to reply to tjie address of welcome, his long speech being listened to with rapt atten-

tion ard punctuated throughout with extraordinary outbursts of cheering and applause. CHAPTER XIV Roosevelt Speaks at Nairobi "Believe me, I am very deeply touched with this fresh display of kindness and good will which 1 have received ever since I have set my foot in British East Africa. You, Sir Frederick, have been especially rood. By far the major portion of the pleasure and success of my trip Is due to your effort, and I am glad of the chance of thanking you all—the officials, settlers and missionaries alike—for the way in which I have been treated.” Theodore Roosevelt’s measured words fell clearly on the ears of the representative gathering of East \fricans who had assembled to do him honor. Every face was turned toward the speaker and their attention was wholly centered on his utterances. ‘‘From the very first time I stood on the Kapiti plains,” continued Roosevelt, "it struck me as familiar to the conditions as I knew them out west some twenty years ago; and I believe from my heart that the same wealth that has come to the west, during the last quarter of a century, will come here to British East Africa- —so alike is the conditions of fundamentals. "I think few people realize, outside of Africa, that there Is here in Africa, under the equator, a real white nian's country. Before I came out here people had told me that while children would not do well out here; but I have visited the homes of settler after settler, especially those from South Africa — both British and Dutch, where I saw large families of children of every age, who had never been out of the country, and who w r ere as sturdy as any one could wish to see them. At Kljabe, among the missionaries, I saw- children, and young men and women, w ho had grown up in Africa, not having left it for a decade, and who were as healthy as possible. Os course, there are plenty of places which are unhealthy; and if you follow’ the career of a hunter you must now and again get into these places and must expect, in consequence, now and then to meet with sickness. ‘‘But there are very large tracts fit for a fine population of healthy and prosperous settlers; and, as this is one of the few regions of the world still left w-hieh Is fit for new w’hite settlement, it would be a reql calamity to neglect It. ‘‘Here where we are now the greatest need is to help white settlements. Os course, the settlers must

be of the right type. There has been a remarkable spread of the English-speaking race over the waste spaces of the earth. ‘‘Credit is due to the people who stay at home. But the major portion of the credit is due to those who go out and conquer these wild continents. The frontier is no place for weak and shiftless people, and the submerged tenth offers exactly the type of persons who cannot prosper in anew country. But the same kind of man who did well when he went to the far west, to the Rocky Mountains and the great plains, thirty years ago, can do well here. “From sugar and cotton to wheat and wool, apples and strawberries, you grow almost everything. And I believe that one of the feats which, in the future, will be held especially to the credit of the white race during the last decade Is the building of the Uganda Railway. “I am ever an expansionist. When we found that we nad to build the Panama Canal, we did not consider whether or not it would pay. It had to, be done, and it was up to us to do it. ' In the building of the Uganda Railway you have thereby created a permanent highway between fertile

It cleans out BOTH upper and lower bowel and removes foul matter which poisoned the system for months.

Speaking as an outsider, it is difficult to speak with patience of those who speak querulously and wonder if it Is a good thing. "Just as in our west the great railroads were built, not because the country already needed them, but to build up a country which- should in the future need them, so here with you the railroad had been built to develop and build up the country; and ample time should be given before it can be expected to pay.
