Republican Lenders Admit That

NBW YORK. 'Oct. '27. Willi liolli
sides claiming victory, lenders of the
democrats nnd republicans arc plan
ning it lirilliunt finiHli for the New

cers will follow fonnur President
Roosevelt on tho stump for the re
publicans iiiiO Congressman Chump
Clark of Missouri, minority louder in
thu house, and a number of demo
cratic senators will tour thu Htato in
thu interest of their party.
"I hcliovi) wo Imvo Tnininnny and
Wall Ntruut on tho run," wax the
confident assertion today of Theo
dore Roosevelt. "Tho election of
Henry L. Slimsnu for governor is
certain. If the signs which point to
his victory should ho misleading,
however, and wo hIioiiIiI lose, wo will
go on fighting tho nnholv alliance of
dishonest business ami dirty poli
tics." IIciikxthIm Confident.
The democralie lenders arc cqunllv
confident of success. Statu Chair
man Huppiichii predicts the election
of John A. Dix and the other nom
ineeH on the Mute ticket and pre
dicts that tho next United States
senator from New York will ho a
democrat.
"Dix will ho elected." he Haid, "and
tho domoornts prohnhlv will control
the slate louirliiturc, insuring that
the successor of C. M. Dopow in
the sonnto will ho a democrat. There
also will he substantial gains in the
congressional delegation for tho
demoornts,"
The prediction of Chairman Pren

"fillcnt Vole."
Confidential reports to the lead
ers of both pnrties aro Paid to give
little indication of the prolinhle
trend of the "silent vote" and thin
is (miMinir the lender some wnrrv.
That this voto is to ho n hiu" factor
in tho rosult in Now York managers
for both parties admit. Tt is to
brim: as much influence as possible
on tho "silent voters", thatlhe whirl
wind finish has boon planned.
Republican leaders admit gtmrd
edlv that the Roosevelt campaign
tour has not been nn unminlified suc

His personal influenco did not' bring
nut llio response that wnH expected

though he met with rousing recep

Another case is hoinir investigated
by the district attorney's office,

that they had been receiving a grade
of cream from tho California con
cern of n cortain percentage and had
been in the habit of reducing it to a
few' points of the standard proscrib
ed bv tho Oregon law, by the addi
tion of fresh milk thereto. Tn the
enso now being investigated the
cream was not found to test to the
standard and tho dairvmnn claims it
was because tho product sent him
by the California creamerv was of a
lower grade than it had been here
