admitted Shafroth is strong in that sec

For all the remaining positions on the

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."

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

URGES REPUBLICANS TO WORK
Babcock Quoted as Saying Hard
Fight Is Necessary.
WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept 20. (Spe
cial.) 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.
The Democratic majority In the House
means that they would be able to dictate
legislation to a large extent
"I feel confident we can carry the House
but it can be done only by an unusually
active campaign in every doubtful dis
