(Continued From First Page.) | this year in the senatorial race is a | conundrum. Both sides are seeking | their support. In mzpofloover landslide two years ago the Republicans picked | House seats which had been | the Democrats. The Democrats ha ! only two _members of the entire dele- | gation. Before he could take his seat, however, the Republican who won in | the third district dled. At a special | election, Moore, the Democrat, won by | about 1,000 votes. He had lost in the regular election by some 4,000 votes, | The third district has always been con- sidered a Democralic district. The victory of Mr. Moore was ed as a sign that the Democrats who had voted against Smith in the 1928 election were back in their old party fold. The result of that special election has been quoted in many quarters as proof positive that the Democrats would re- gain all the seats they lost to the Republicans in 1928 and also that they would win the senatorial eleétion. The Republicans probably will lose nearly all, if not all, of the seats they look away from the Democrats two years 0. -‘ln the fourth district, however, Representative J. D. Craddock, Repub- lican, is believed to have a chance of holding what he won in 1928. There is & bitter feeling among the Democ: there. Former Representative Moorman, Democrat, who succeeded Ben Johnson, another Democrat, who will be well remembered in Washington as the chairman of the House District Com- mittee a decade or more ago, wished to be a candidate again this year. But Ben Johnson, who is now chairman of the State Highway Commission, favored Cap R. Carden. The contest became acrimonious. Moorman charged that Ben Johnson was using his influence as road commissioner to defeat him and finally withdrew. He lmfll friends are not likely to work or with any degree of enthusiasm for Carden. Mrs. Langley Favored. The Democrats are claiming will win back all their former seats and also_that they will defeat Mrs. Langley, Republican, in her effort to be lected in the tenth district, a dis- besn strongly Repub- lican.

Thatcher, They realized had no chance of defeating Mr. Thatcher and figured that to leave him without an opponent would help to re- duce the Republican majority in the district. This is on the theory that many of the people who would o to the polls and register their approval of Thatcher by voting the Republican ticket will remain away entirely or will feel more at liberty to Democratic ticket. The Republicans were not to be outdone in this kind of strategy. They declined to place in the field candidates for the House in first, second and third districts, believing that in this way they could take away the incentive for the Democrats to roll up large votes in those districts. One issue that is conspicuous by its absence in the campaign here is the liquor issue. No one is mentioning the wet and dry question. All the candi- dates, seemingly, have espoused the dry cause. ‘Phere is no excuse for Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt to come into the State, as she did two years ago, and crusade against the Democratic nomi- nees on the theory that they support the ‘wet cause, even if she desired to come in. That there is some: turnover in sentiment in the direction of the wets may be quite true, but it is not yet strong enough to be reflected in the stand taken by the political candidates on this issue. The Democrats still have in mind what happened to them in Kentucky two years ago when they had a wet candidate for President, and the Republicans reflect that with a dry nominee they swept the State.

It is estimated that under these cir- cumstances it will take, perhaps, a week to determine just who has been elected Senator this year. Democrats say that up in the mountains, where the Repub- licans are strong, it has been the cus- tom to wait until it is known how many votes are “needed” before bringing in the returns, and that there has been a tendency to shoot up the ballot boxes or toss them in mountain streams. Intensive Campaign. Senator Robsion has conducted an intensive personal campaign for months, getting into every part of the State. He is urging his record in the Senate and House as reasons for his election, appealing particularly to labor and to the veterans of the World War. He has strong indorsements from President Green of the American Fed- eration of Labor and from many of the State organizations, including railroad iabor, which is strong in this State. Many prominent Legionnaires, veterans of the World War, have indorsed his record on veteran legislation as 100 per cent right. ‘The Senator has undertaken in his campaigning to defend the Hoover ad- ministration and to urge that the peo- ple suspend judgment and give the President a chance to work out his pro- gram for betterment. He asks the voters how they can hope to help them- selves by sending to the Senate a man who will merely seek to hamper the President instead of helping him. His answer, of course, is that they cannot. Judge Logan is popular. He has served in the past as attorney general of the State and in other public offices, though not as a legislator. His cam- paign up to date, however, has not been particularly inspiring. On one occasion he said that Senator Robsion had never read a whole book and that he was ignorant about a great many things that a Senator should know. He also charged that Robsion was not a native of Kentucky, but had come from Ohio. This later charge, however, was quickly disproved. The triviality of this kind of personal attack seems to have had rather adverse effect on Judge Lo- gan's candidacy, if it has had any effect at all. Has Read Bible. Robsion retorted to the book charge that he had read the Bible “from kiver to kiver.” As a matter of fact, Robsion is a lawyer, and while his early educa- tion ma; ave been somewhat sketchy, he has had schooling and attended col- h'.fiidge Logan has not gi his n not_given uj lace on the bench to make theprlcz or the Senate. That, however, does|PY not wpgalr to have created any excite- ment down here. 4 ‘There is one freak interest that under the surface has a good deal to do with politics in Kentucky—the horse- racing interests.

However, the Republicans are hammering away at electorate to prove to them that the depression is world-wide, and that Hoover is the man to lead the American people out of the slough of despond.

By the Associated Press. EVANSVILLE, Ind, October 17— United States Senator Watson told a Republican rally here last night me§ same people who commanded President Hoover to pursue a given policy are “now turning about to prevent the things they ordered done.” “It would certainly show a lack of consistency on the part of the voters of America that would prevent the consummation of any policy under- taken,” Senator Watson said. “Are the people mad at us because we have done what they ordered us to do?” he continued. ‘“‘Are they angry with us because we are carrying out the mandates they gave us in 1928? Are they out of patience with us be- cause we voted in Congress as they last voted at the polls? Let them an- swer in November.” Senator Watson said earlier in the day his speech here probably would be his last of the 1930 campaign because of poor health. He told the State committee headquarters at Indianapolis that if he didn’t stop making speeches “Nature will stop me.” He was ex- hausted by a talk at Terre Haute.

In citing the Wilson merchandise tax measures, he declared: “In all the history of the Republican party it has never issued a war tax in time of peace to meet the expenses of the Government.” “In 1930,” sald Vice President Curtis, “no message was sent to Congress ask- ing a war tax in time of peace. “The business men were called to- gether, the heads of the railroads were called together, the labor leaders were called together. Every branch of busi- ness was asked to do what it could. That was the course of our business man President, Herbert Hoover, Praises Hoover's Work. “He did not stop here.
