Mr. Oldfield said that he had been greatly encouraged in the belief that a strong Democratic organiza tion can be built up in many of the Western States, by his observations on his_ trip. At the same time that Mr. Oldfield was urging the Democrats of the State to get behind Mr. Bruce, Senator Wheeler of Montana, Democrat, was | campaigning in the State for the elec- tion of La Follette. Mr. Wheeler, in | supporting the candidacy of La Eol lette, insists there is no difference be- tween a “progressive Democrat” and ive Republican,” and that ere is no difference between ative Democrat and a con- Republican. Senator Frazier of North Dakota and Representative La Guardia of New York also are here to aid La Follette. D. C., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1925.
