12 LENROOT LEADS ALL OTHERS IN WISCONSIN FIGHT "Loyalty" Candidate Has Ap parent Plurality of 10,000 Over Davics By . issociatrd Press Milwaukee, Wis., April 3.—Returns I to 7 ■ o'clock on - yesterday's Sena- I torinl election show Irvine 1,,.

I 111 the contest between the vet and dry forces ol' Wisconsin in yester day's election the drys to-day appear to have made some headway in ter ritory gained. Nine cities and towns including Superior, Ashland and Belolt, which were wet, voted dry. Three towns which were dry voted to become wet. Fourteen cities and towns which permitted the sale of liquor did not change, and nine dry places remained so. Merger Runs Behind Victor 1.. Merger, Socialist, was 27,-j 760 behind Davies. according to the latest ligures. Since the inception of the cam-j paign every leader has insisted -hatl the loyalty of the state was being] judged by the nation. The Socialist | platform which opposed the Presi-I dent's policy of peace with victory! offered refuge for the ballots of ihej disloyal element. Patriots acceptedi this vote was a test, and on thatj I'asis the state has apparently voted j loyal by three to one. Some of the votes lost by the Re publicans went to Davies because the President wanted him, but much of it represented by the German ele ment in the LaFollette faction voted for Merger, according to the loyal analysis. The Socialist platform which calls for withdrawal of the American forces in France and a repetition of the Bolsheviki experi ment in negotiating peace, with Ger many. was fully understood through out the state. Prominent citizens who have felt that the state had oeen misrepresented, were content to count the Lenroot-Davies vote as loyal: that of Merger disloyal. Opponents of Socialists, despite the re-election of the Socialist mayor. Daniel W. Hoan, who ran ahead of his ticket, found solace to-day in the apparent defeat of the six Sooi.il candidates for alderman-at-large, and in the re-election on the face of incomplete returns, of the nonpar!!-1 san candidates, for city treasurer,] city controller and city attorney, j Oharlos H.

For many years, previous to the oon- solidation, the principal constituent of the Republic Rubber Corporation paid 8 per cent on its common stock. The consolidation has effected economies of operation and provided the capacity to take care of a 50 per cent increase in the business. The requirements of motor truck and pleasure car manu facturers, in connection with huge war orders, together with the normal increase in its business, have placed the corporation in position to reap the full benefit of its added manufacturing facilities. We, therefore, con fidently expect the Republic Rubber Corporation to make a remarkably strong showing. At present it is earning largely in excess of its preferred dividend needs, and in our opinion, this stock is a very desirable investment. The permanency of the rubber business is fixed for all time. No com modity, with the possible exception of iron and steel, has such universal application to the needs of mankind. The mechanical uses for rubber are almost numberless, and the permanent demand of motor vehicle manufac turers for pneumatic and solid rubber fires has cemented the rubber indus try on its present secure foundation. We believe the stock of a well conducted rubber enterprise offers the investor unexcelled security and great opportunities for profit from, in creased values. We, recommend the preferred stock of the Republic Rubber Corporation as a safe, conservative investment, yielding . 7 per cent income; free from normal Federal Income Tax. Upon request we shall be glad to send our booklet, giving detailed information about this desirable stock. , ' The Geiger-Jones Company Investment Securities Canton, Ohio C. L.
