FARMER-LABOR PARTY IS HOLDING STAGE IN WASHINGTON VOTE

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., TUESDAY, SEPT. 12, 1922.

(By Vnite Pnss) OLYMPIA, Wash., Sept. 12. Interesting results are expected to be revealed when the ballot boxes disgorge the votes cast in the state of Washington primaries today. The degree of interest is enhanced by the presence of a third party in the

field, the Farmer-Labor organization,

which -with a full ticket bids fair to at

tract a large number of votes ordinarily cast for Republican or Demo

cratic candidates.

The campaign In Washington, while it has not been bitter, has been one of

the hottest in years. The major dis

turbance has centered about the sen

atorial head of Miles Poindexter, of Spokane, incumbent, whose job nine candidates of assorted parties would

fain possess.

Poindexter is opposed in his own party by five candidates, including one

woman, Mrs. Frances C Axtell, of Bellingham. Three aspirants will split the Democratic vote, while the Farmer-Labor element Is expected to mass solidly behind Its candidate, James A. Duncan. District Line-ups. In the first district five Republicans, one Democrat and one Farmer-Labor candidate are out; in the second district four Republicans, one Democrat and one Farmer-Labor; In the third district two Republicans, and one Farmer-Labor candidate; in the fourth one candidate from each of the three parties; and in the fifth two Democrats, one Republican and one FarmerLabor will battle. Poindexter is and has been opposed by many elements, many of them within the Republican party prior to this year, but now members and part and parcel of the Farmer-Labor party, because of his record in congress, much of which his opponents have claimed to be at odds with the will of the majority of his constituency. Particularly Poindexter's action on the bonus and the Newberry case has

aroused opposition, which his opponents for his own party's nomination have made much of. ' No problems of national importance save those bound up in Poindexter's own campaign and his own record will be solved by the voters. Excellent Future. The Farmer-Labor party is regarded as having an excellent future in the Ftate because of the solidarity of its initial entry into politics. The organization contented itself with placing a full list of candidates on the ballot, limiting itself to one man for each job, insuring. If all goes well, at least the same vote in November as the party will poll in the primaries. Washington is normally Republican, but the dope has been upset so many times that it is unsafe to say just which party will forecast its November strength by coming out ahead at the polls today.

Cuban Congress Makes

President Be Economical HAVANA, Cuba, Sept. 12 Congress

is turning a deaf ear to intimations

that the ?100-a-day Cuban White House budget is not commensurate with the presidential cost of living. When the 1922-1923 economy budget became effective last July the major domo of the palace took what he considered to be adequate steps to reduce grocery and other bills, but he was forced to announce a deficit at the end of the month of $1,400. This the president paid from his own pocket after congress had failed to heed the hint he embodied in a special message. Far from bringing additional funds, an intimation that he might be forced to leave his ornate temporary residence for his modest home in 3 Morro street, brought only expressions of commendation.

A Store of Better Values

High Prices Are The Rule

In Jap Industrial Capital

H (By Associated Press) ' OSAKA,. JAPAN, Sept 12. Osako, the industrial capital of Japan has the reputation of being the most expensive city of the empire in which to live. The prices of commodities in Osaka in June averaged 8.7 per cent over the same month last year, Tokio the next expensive city, averaged 6.8 per cent. The general advance in prices in ten years has been 150.39 per cent in Oskaa and 130.34 per cent in Tokio, according to official figures. Believing that the high prices are due to profiteering the government recently ordered the department stores to make a reduction of 15 per cent in necessities. The stores replied with bargain sales at which they got rid of their surplus stock.( This did not s-atisfy the government so an order has gone out to all retailers to reduce the prices of "soba" a sort of macaroni and "to fu" bean paste, staple foods of the people. If present weather conditions continue a good crop is expected to bring down the price of rice.
