Convinced by Western Trip " That Democratic Ticket -~ Is Sure to Win. " Returning to New York from a 5.000mile eampaign tour through the West, John W. Davis declared that “All signs point to a sweeping Democratic victory in the coming election. - %] return to:the East confident of success,” he said. “Privilege ‘has won its ‘last battle. We are laying our cau_se' before the Ameri'c.-nn-poop_le and they are responding nobly.” . Mr. Davis said that eyverywhere he went in the West all those with whom he talked brought the same messagey “That the great silent vote, that vote which has turned every election in the past when r'iie American people came to a crossroad, has made up its mind this year to turn to the Democratic | party as the only possible avenue of relief. - . - :

“The people fully realize,” he sald, | “that the choice lies only between con-. tinuing discredited. Republican regime or installing the Democratic adminis- | tration in its stead.” - - o Asserting that in all the states he. had visitel—West Virginia, Indiana, Ilinois, Wyoming, lowa, Nebraska, Colorado, Kansas and Missouri—he! ‘had found the Dem‘pcrntlc party intact and ‘undivided. - Mr. Davis -said its members. were working together in an “absolute unity of purpose and svith 1 an interest I have never seen surpassed in any campaégn.” - “Everywhere that I have been I have heard the same story,” he added, “and it has come to me from men re-, gardless of previous party affilintion—‘it is that of dissatisfaction with the service réndore(l{%}r, rather, - denied,, by the government during the last three and a half years. f - Farmer Resents Tariff. _ - “The farmer resents the déception that wds attempted by the Repiublican party in placing an utterly ineffective tariff duty on his products; he resents. the artificial increase in the price of ![—all the things he buys; and he is convinced that there is no sincere purpose on the part of -the Republican party to take any steps in his interest. “The exposures of corruption in - Washington made a far deeper impression on the public mind and the moral sense of the country than the leaders of the Republican ‘party are willing to admit. ‘They have not been forgotten and will not be forgiven. Interest ip Navy Belated. =

“I found, moreover, that in the Middle West—contrary to the jmpression which prevails ih some quarters—the people were deeply interested in the foreign policy of the go%ernment and entirely out of sympathy with the timid and evasive course .which the present administration has pursued. “They fully realized, moreover, that to accomplish any reform whatever, the legislative and executive branches of the government must be in complete and entire sympathy. The lack of leadership and coherence which the Republican party has exhibited has made a deep impression. - : “Unquestionably the '‘people of the West are in favor of disarmament and opposed to any militaristic scheme. Nevertheless they are resentful that our navy has bheen permitted to fall in strength in comparison ‘with other powers—a. fact to which I ealled attention in my speech at Cheyenne, Wyo,, on the 12th of September.’ They regard the navy as the first line of defense and are determined to maintain it as such. I do not think they will be impressed by the belated interest shown in the recall of Secretary Wil bur from his speaking tour on the Pacific coast.?! Roper Sees Drift to Davis, .

‘There is a decided drift .in ‘sentiment toward John W. Davis and the Democratic ticket, according to Daniel C. Roper, who was one of the prominent McAdoo managers. Mr. Roper has noted particularly a sudden pickup in Davis strength in lilinois, he says.’ “Some of the papers have shown surprise at the spdctacular growth of the sentiment fmfl Mr. Davis in Illinois, as shown by a comparison of his two visits there,” said Mr. Roper. “Tt is no surprise whatever tao me. The same turn of the tide will be shown wherever Mr. Davis revisits a locality. The hesitant vote®*which has been unusually large in this campaign until about ten days ago, had been dis stinctly wavering between the different parties. A great number undoubtedly waited to hear more of the principles of Senator LaFollette before reaching a decision. . L

“During the last week reports not only from states at large but from every county in these states, has shown that this vote is deciding to ally itself with the Democratic party. “From those sections of the country where Mr. Davis has been heard and seen the reaction in his favor has been amazing.” , Indiana Democratic leaders added 50,000 to the majority by which they claim the state after witnessing the enthusiasm with which John W. Davis was received in his dash through one of the most heavily Republican sec-" itions of the state. Dr. C. W. MeCul loch, the Democratic ecandidate for governor, predicted the Democrats would earry the state by 100,000 wher he started out with Davis at Gary but when he left him at Fort Wayge after a series of ovations a_c-r‘ $8 north ern Indiana, he had moved %)Q figur: up to 180,000, , Photograph of the Children never . ‘ grow up | , Phone. 103 Hieber Studio for an ap- | ' pomtment. . 9btt Wanted to purchase eggs and poultry.
