This, after some talk, the speaker aprreed to, much to th char:n of a larsre r ei.l.nt In the club. As a result there Is now war In the ranks of the clubs. With th pislns; of the campalan clays a change has come over the slrlt of the Socialist dreams. From promising: everything to a more sub- n-ird and mo.lest attitude, was an easy dror. but the recently published as ie;t:nn by a mcmher of Harrlman'a campiiun committee that the "Intro duction of thousands of Kastern dol lars Kj.s ma.le thinas black for our man.'" was an even greater drop.

"If Harrlman was elected Mayor." iHKrkweller explained to the women, he would have the police and the Socialist City Council back of anything that he deemed expedient. We have no right l prejudice this tremendously Important trial by making witnesses who are brought from a distance feel that It might happen ti.-t they would not be afforded every protection." Mill another and even more Im portant blow to Harrlman s candidacy was the failure of capitalists. Kast or West, to bid for the Issue of t:s0.000 bonda for school purposes. For the first time In the history of the city the city offered bonds for sale and not a bidder came forward. The need for school additions and Improvements la urgent and the fail ure of the bond Issue was a severe blow. The Good Government forces naturally were not slow In pointing out what they assert was connection be tween that failure and the thrust of Socialism laborlxed In the city. -Sr. ft J ' -t v - lev; V' r f v ." - feer " JaVIIarrlssaa bevel mm4 Geerge Alexander.

PAUL, Nov. 2. (Special.) An 11-car special train known as the Western Governors' Special will leave St. Paul tomorrow on a 20-day trip to II cities of the East and Mlddie West, The excursion Is to be a reversal of the "get acquainted" trips that have been made by the East to the West In years s;one by. Elaborate arrangements have been made In all cities to by visited to en tertain the distinguished men making up the party. In nearly every In stance the train will be met upon en tering any state by the Governor of that state and other prominent people. They will accompany the train to the border line and turn it over to the Governor of the next state. In all cities visited, the leading commercial organisations have taken charge of ar rangements and there will be a series of luncheons and banquets and much speecmaking. when the Western Gov ernors will be constantly called upon to describe the objects of the trip. Cars Will Be Instructive. The exhibit cars, to be part of the special train, will be instructive of the resources of the mines.' forest and i. Id of the West. These cars will be parked near the center of population of the cities to be visited and repre sentatives of the state will explain the exhibits and offer Information and lit erature regarding the northwest por tion of the United States. This will bring authentic Information, backed up by comprehensive exhibits of possi bilities of the American Northwest widely and forcibly to the attention of the East and Middle West. The Governors of Oregon and Idaho art among the representatives from the Pacific Northwest scheduled to make the trip. More than 4000 miles will be traveled between tomorrow and Decem ber 18. The cities to be visited will have a population In excess of 11,000. 000. Wratera States Interested. The Idea originated at a meeting of the executive board of the Western De velopment Association at Salt Lake City April 20. The plan as proposed by the Western Development Association was adopted by the Northwestern De velopment League. Then came the work of Interesting the various com-re-inlties of the Western States, which was soon followed with the announce- ment of the willingness of the West ern Governors to accompany the spe cial, and the train will be directly un der the control of the officials of the Western Governors' special. Motion pictures will be made show ing the departure of the special from St. Paul and the films will be dis played over the prominent American vaudeville circuits. California and the 1915 exposition have one complete car, Oregon .and Idaho have combined on a car and so have Montana and Wash ington, Minnesota, North and South Dakota and Colorado and Wyoming, making five cars devoted to exhibits. Governor West, of Oregon, said to day: "I am making this trip at a great personal sacrifice, as there are things at home that almost demand my at tention during the next few weeks, but I think the benefits of the trip to the people of the East, as well as to the people of my state, will more than compensate for my temporary sacri fice." "This surely will be the greatest edu cational trip ever undertaken," said Governor Hawlcy, of Idaho. "The East knows too Jlttle about the West and I am sure that when we return many thousands of people will have had their eyes open to the wonderful opportuni ties awaiting them In Idaho and other Western states."
