POLITICAL DRIFT
TOWARD HUGHES
One Poll Shows 8 Out of 10
Democratic Businessmen
Turn From Wilson
Washington.—Drifts politically show '
decisive gains for Hughes, with no sur
face trends favorable to the re-election
President Wilson. These favorable
for the election of Hughes
are seen in the heavy Republican vote
in New Jersey, the complete anial- !
gamation of the Republicans and Pro- j
gressives there, the successes of the!
Republicans In the September elec- ]
tion in Maine and the unprecedented i
Republican registrations reported in j
many states.
In Republican circles It is realized,
however, that in the Middle Western
States and in some of the Coast States
the argument that "Wilson has kept
the country out of war" has tended to
strengthen the Democratic party. In
Oregon and Washington, which are
normally Republican, the Democrats
are admittedly strong by reason of the
support being given them on the peace
program. On the other hand. Califor
nia, New Mexico and Arizona aro con
sidered certain to be found in the Re
publican column by reason of the ad
ministration's Mexican policy.
One of the most significant signs in
dicative of Republican victory Is seen
In the many polls being taken through
out the country. Nearly all of these
polls, outside of labor districts, show
that Wilson is being deserted by men
who .voted for him four years ago.
The proportion of changes Is three to
two in favor of Hughes.
Senator Borah, who recently dis
cussed with your correspondent the
political situation, 3aid that Hughes
would be elected by the small business
men. who feared that the Democratic
party would not bo able to deal with
the great problems which would arise
after the European war. Returns from
one poll made by him showed that
eight Democratic business men out of
ten intended to support Hughes for
this reason. Such a desertion, in the
opinion of Senator Borah, Is talking
place in other parts of the country and
in sufficient numbers to carry states
heretofore considered doubtful for the
Republican party.
Returns reoel% - ed by the Republican
congressional committee this week
from primaries and registrations show :
that the party has cast a prepon- [
derating vote in all primaries in pivotal
states, and that the registration by the i
Republicans in these states exceeds i
that of the Democrats and Progres- i
sixes combined. In New York the Re
publican enrollment is 738,631, the
Democratic 651.873. and the Progres
sive 46,206. Claims that are consid
ered conservaUve give New York to
Ihe Republicans in November bv
26.00 P.
From the Indiana Republican state i
committee comes the information that
registration in that state will take
place- October 9. The primaries were j
held March 7 last. In those primaries \
it is shown the combined vote for the
Democratic candidates for governor
was 159.737, while the combined'vote
for the Republican candidates for the
same office was 209.043.
Perhaps the most striking results so
far obtained, however, were those of
Hie primaries in New Jersey Tuesday.
President Wilson in 1912 polled
175.259. The vote cast for Repub
lican candidates for the nomination
for governor and senator Tuesday ex
reeded this figure, while that for
Pemocratic candidates fell far below.

Lack of Laborers Holds Up
Production of Coke Plants
Connellsville, Pa.. Oct. s.—With
Connelslville coal for byproduct oven
uses commanding $2 a ton and with
furnace coke steadily approaching $4,
and the demand for both unabated,
every plant in the region would prob
ably be in operation if it were possible
to secure the required number of la
borers.
Relief was expected with the ap
proaoh of cooler weather, but opera
tors declare the conditions show signs
of becoming worse instead of better.
The combined production of coal and
coke during tho week reached 655,000 1
tons, of which 243,000 tons was coal I
for byproduct ovens.
