CHICAGO, 11, October 18 (N.AN.A). —Although the three major candidates for United States Senator in Illinois have been campaigning actively for a month, cipally in downstate coun- tles, political interest is just beginning to be arouséd and a forecast of the out- come of the contest must nece: y provide itself with plenty of mattresses to fall on. There are nine candidates for Sena- tor, but only three are being consid- ered. These are James Hamilton Lewis, ton State, and who was el to represent Illinois in the Senate; Ruth Hanna McCormick, Republican, daugh- Ao Garmmick, who detcated Lowi 10 the McCormick, wi eat or the Senate in 1918, and Lottie Holman O'Neill, widow .of & Chicago lumber leader. She has been a member of the State General Assembly since 1922. ‘The actual contest is between Lewis and Mrs. McCormick, with no one but Mrs. O'Neill's campaigners conceding the independent a greater total vote than the 156,000 won by Magill, inde- pendent, against George Brennan and Frank L.

BULKLEY (Continued From First Page.) on the toboggan in Ohio as it has else- where. Admittedly, a victory for the Demo- crats in Ohio this year will be a serious blow to the G. O. P. Furthermore, if the Democrats can win in the Buckeye State, there is reason to believe they will win in other States which have been classed as strongly Republican. The same k;:l' m is working in Ohio is working e! . ‘The nl{'ll sections of Ohio, to which the Republicans look for active support in the present crisis and which ordi- narily would go forth to battle for the dry cause t & wet Democrat, are disgruntled because of the drought, be- cause they do not care for the law and because they have not had the measure of farm relief from the Republicans for which they had hoped. This may keep many of the rural voters from the polls. It may even turn some of them away from the Republican party and toward the Democratic. Senator McCulloch, if reports be true, is mot the strongest candidate whom the Republicans might have put for- ward. His appointment to the Senate caused chagrin to many Republicans, mucuhfly to those in power in Cleve- d. After the death of the late Senator Burton it was expected by many Reepublicans that the senatorial appointment would go to Cleveland. It e 'v‘gcm. too, &t it would go to M nor, in :‘) defeat Jlldl.wmmlu and Hugh D. ees. Carmi Thompson. Even Mr. Thompson believed that such would be the case.

Dickinson, president of picked. in Ohio, however, have been voting the Republican $icket- for years. It does not appear probable that there will be many who will vote against McCulloch, notwithstanding his vote on Judge Pregident Hoover rolled up a tremen- dous vote in 1928. He lead Al Smith in Ohio by 767,000 votes. La Follette in 1924 received 358,000 votes in Ohio, many of which ordinarily go to the Republican candidate for President. ‘Woodgow Wilson in 1936 won Ohlo with a lead of 90,000 votes, and Ohio has elected Democrats fre- quently for governor in the last 25 years. As a general thing in the past the Labor vote has been more strongly Re- ublican in this State than Democratic. has been estimated that it stood 55 per cent Republican and 45 per cent Democratic, though this estimate may be the Democrats a little too ut today thousands of la- borers are out of work.

In the gubernatorial race, the Dis- Ewh poll gives the Republican nom- ee for Governor, Gov.

It is estimated, however, that in the end White is likely to win by from 30,000 to 70,000 votes. The poll 50 far has been taken in districts more favorable to Cooper than White. ‘The Cincinnati Enquirer, which also conducts a poll, gives the Democratic the past of more State platform does not declare for re- peal of the eighteenth amendment. The only sign of ‘moisture the platform is & demand that the State prohibition enforcement act be amended so as to permit trial by jury in all liquor law violation cases. Such trial is not now permitted. Mr. White is silenit on the prohibition question in his speeches. He attacks the State administration and the national. Mr. Bulkley, on the other hand, wades right in and demands the | ac| repeal of the eighteenth amendment wherever he speaks. He does not make an attack on the Anti-Saloon League and the other dry organizations, how- ever, but merely declares that present- day conditions under National pro- hibition are unbearable and changed in the interest of temperance. Fhe Republicans by no means admit the probability of the election of White as Governor. They insist that will be re-elected by at least 100,000 votes. They are not so.confident when to discuss the chances of Senator McCulloch against Bulkley. They do #ay, however, that they be- lieve that a Republican trend has set In during the last two weeks; that the Democrats began their drive too soon, reached the peak of their strength October 1, and that the Republicans wi{‘lm:o md. mnhndmm November 4. e lers are their heads over the mwfl:lhmn' race.
