Of the remaining five or six men men- Honed for the nomination, it Is believed that with Hughes and Adams set aside. ex-Congressman John F. Shafroth, of Denver, and State Senator Edward F. Taylor, of Glenwood, would lead the race. Taylor has announced his candidacy. and Is making an active campaign for the nomination. He claims to have most of the delegates from the Western slope pledged to vote for him, although it is admitted Shafroth is strong in that sec tion of the state. The latter Is not mak ing an open light and Is. perhaps, the most likely dark horse of any in the list. For all the remaining positions on the ticket, there are from three to six can didates, with the exception of Secretary of State. For that place the only aspirant seems to be Horace w.

POLITICS OF CONGRESSMEN. Following Is the present political com plexion of Congress: Republicans ..210 Democrat ..176 Union Labor party... 2 Vacancies 2 Total -...890 CHICAGO, Sept. 20. Special.) The sen tlment of the West is overwhelmingly Re publican, according to preliminary reports from state polls which have been going on all over the country for a month. This announcement was made today by mana gers at the National Republican Head quarters. The reports also show that the minds of the voters are already made up to an unusual degree. This fact Is ascribed largely to the fact that labor unions and similar organizations and the free rural-mall delivery have done much to educate the people in the last four years. While the Republican managers are in clined to view the political situation with confidence, they say there may be a whirl wind campaign in October, and that both Republicans and Democrats will work to get out the vote on election day as they never worked before. "The sentiment in favor of President Roosevelt and a continuance of Republi can policies is evident," said Chairman "West today. "The real work of the cam paign will come when we get to the point where the vote must be gotten out. "We tfeel confident because we are fighting all along the line, overlooking no opportuni ties, and we believe we will come as near getting out our voto as anybody. The poll in many counties In Illinois has been completed." Roosevelt Gaining Fast In Kansas. At the National Headquarters today W. R. Hobbs, chairman of the State Commit tee of Kansas, reported that half the canvass of that state had been completed and 6aid that the returns showed that Senator Tells Baltimore Her Losses From Big Blaze Were Not as Great as Those Resulting -From Election of '52. BALTIMORE, Sept. 20. Senator Charles TV. Fairbanks was the chief speaker at a Republican mass meeting held in this city tonight, the event being the formal open ing of the Republican campaign in Mary land. Senator Fairbanks was escorted from "Wilmington to Baltimore by a com mittee of leading Republicans. At the Hotel Rennert a reception was held. In his speech, Senator Fairbanks de clared the losses of Baltimore in the con flagration of this year were not so large as those sustained by "the city during the last Democratic Administration as a re sult of the temporary overthrow, of Re publican principles. He declared that dur ing the Cleveland Administration business in tnis ana other leading clues was checked, payrolls were reduced and the wage rate diminished. On the subject of protection, he said: "The Republican protective system Is in Issue in the pending campaign. The Dem ocratic party, true to its traditional policy of hostility to It, has declared protection to be 'robbery.' Its triumph would be a direct and positive blow to the protective system which has so splendidly vindicated itself. "The overthrow of Republican policies today must bring similar results to those that followed their overthrow InlSSL Strike down the protective system today. and we will eat the bread of repentance tomorrow. A restoration of Democratic nollciea and Democratic Administration does not mean that your business establishments will be reduced to ashes as they were a few months ago, but It means to touch tne nerves of your Industries with nar- alysls. It means loss of revenue, loss of States Senator, a vacancy In which ropportunlty In which merchants, manu body will be filled two years hence, "facturers and worklngmen must all share has caused much pressure to be brought to bear upon certain men to seek re-election as State Senators and forego their personal ambitions for higher office. The platform adopted to morrow will deal unmlncingly with the so-called "law and order" policy of Governor Peabody, nominee for re election on the Republican ticket.

A special to the Post from New York quotes Chairman Babcock, of the Republican Congressional Committee, as Baying: "As matters now stand we are likely to lose the House of Representatives." This statement was not made for the purpose of scaring funds out of reluctant campaign contributors, but was an esti mate sgf the situation after a calm sur vey. Representatives Sherman, of New York, and Lodenlager, of New Jersey, united with the Chairman in saying the Republicans would lose the House unless they Inaugurate an active campaign at once and fight for every district in which there is a chance of winning. "If the Democrats carry 15 districts, which are now represented by Republi cans, they will wipe out our majority in the House entirely," added Bab cock. "Without regard, to the cam paign work to be .done by either party, the chances favor the Democrats. With election held right now we would proba bly elect Roosevelt and lose the House.
