Coolidge Appears to Be Certain of Winning at Polls Possibility of La Follette’s Deadlocking Election Fad ing Now; Mu6t Carry West to Do So (Continued From Pare One.) \V. Bryan possessed the following ns "certain democratic states:" Texas, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Caro lina, South Carolina and Virginia. In other words, the “solid south," with its 114 electoral votes. Those states stayed with Cox in 1920, when stay ing with Cox was about the most un popular pastime #ever devi«ed by democratic politicians. Fringing these states is a row of seven, all of them hut one, Kentucky, with a reconi of having voted for Harding, but all of them, excepting West Virginia, reasonably democratic in normal times. West Virginia is ft stormy petrel, included In the demo cratic column In 1924 because It is the home of John \V. Davis and shows a strong Indication of support ing him. These seven states are West Virginia, Oklahoma, Maryland, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Kentucky and Missouri. Of the seven, Missouri Is the most dubious quantity. It haH been leal fighting ground throughout the campaign, and, since the issue has not been apparently decided, it is placed in the doubtful column. Davis States. These Davis states, with their elec toral vote, follow: Tens, . 3(1 Virginia 13 Alabama . 13 Pest Virginia S Arknnf.an . II oklrlmniu . 10 Klnridn .. fl Tmneftnee . 13 (■enrgln . 14 Maryland . K IkfUlftiana . 10 Kentm-ky ....... 13 Mississippi . Ill - Vorth Carolina . 13 Total .. .lfl.1 South Carolina. . 0 When Coolidge and Dawes began stock taking in early July they found a substantial nucleus of votes In the New England states that could be put down as "sure" and a big crate ful of other states in which victory, while not so certain ns in New Eng land, could reasonably be expected. And It Is that crateful of "reasonably certain” states which leads to the conclusion that Coolidge will serve four more years In the White House. Coolidge States. The following are states which may be written down for Coolidge and Dawes after a study of available un biased reports: Maine .. 6 Pennayhanla . 38 Vermont . 4 Ohio . 31 Massachusetts . 18 Illinois . 39 Connection! ... . 7 Michigan .15 \c-,v llHinpttilre. 4 Kansn* . 10 Khoi ounce of glycerine.

They can come from the middle and far western state where La Follette Is running with a consld erable show of strength, or from states In the doubtful column where the Issues between Davis and Cctol ldge. These doubtful states are: Missouri ..ISiDelawsre . * liubam, .1® . . t olornilo .. 61 Total ..4. INDIANA—In Indiana the Ulan fight and the impeachment and subse quent Imprisonment of ex-Oovernor Warren Mcltay have beset the repub lican leaders. Latest reports Indi cate. however, that these fights are outside the national ticket and may not affect the candidacy of Coolidge. Indiana is doubtful, but the chance is greater that it will go for Coolidge than for Davis. COLORADO—This state, which has been more or less of an enigma, now shows signs of climbing out of the doubtful column and into the Cool idge ranks. It would not be at all surprising if Coolidge were to pick up these eight votes. DEIjAWARE—Delaware Is another that now shows Coolidge leanings, and Arthur Sears Henning, in the Chicago Tribune, flatly places it In the republican column. However, it cannot be placed there with the same certainty as those listed above as G. O. 1’. states. MISSOURI—Missouri has been mentioned before. Some observers give it to Coolidge, others to Davis. No one really knows and no one will know until after next Tuesday. La Follette States. This brings us to La Follette and tlie states generally conceded to hint. They are: VVIsron'dn . 131 North Dakota ft Minnesota . IS — I Total . .. 30 Of the three Wisconsin is probably the only one that can he written “sure,” since the prevailing high prices for grain have cost La Follette n number of votes In Minnesota and North Dakota. Probably not enough, however, to bring these two states back to Coolidge, where they would normally go. There remain 12 states, with 71 feleetoral votes, where the La Fol lette element enters In. Of the 12 Davis has an opportunity of gaining only two, Arizona and Nevada. Cool idge has a chance in every One of the remaining 10. Those states are: Nebraska . S Washington . 7 Iowa . 13 Oreiron . ft South Dakota . ft Arizona . 3 Montanu . 4 vcw Mexico .... 3 f-'aho . 4 Nevada ......... 3 Wyoming . 3 — California . 13 Total .. 71 NEBRASKA — Despite optimistic claims of democratic leaders. Includ ing Governor Bryan, I see only Cool idge and La Follette In Nebraska. The democrats are pinning their hopes on a swing from La Follette to Davis, with enough republican votes staying with the Wisconsin sen ator to put Davis into the lead. What ever drift there may he is more proba bly from La Follette to Coolidge, with Davis well settled In third place. As this Is written Coolidge appears to he gaining and I expect him to come through with a comfortable majority. IOWA—Iowa, like Nebraska, early showed considerable strength for La Follette, which has dwindled as crop prices rose. However, there Is enough La Follette sentiment extant in this state which has no candidate for the United States senate endorsed by the state republican committee to warrant its being placed in the Cool idge or La Follette column, even though the Coolidge chances are ex cellent. SOUTH DAKOTA—The situation hero is much like that in Nebraska, with the exception, however, that Da vis Is making no claim of strength. NORTHWESTERN STATES—Mon tana Is a problem. It Is the home state of La Follette's running mate, Wheeler, and Its democratic candi date for re-election to the senate. Walsh, has been endorsed by La Fol lette. The chances are good that Montana will give La Follette a ma jority. In Washington, a strong La Follette state, there are now indica tions of a swing back to Coolidge. In Idaho, tlie republican party has the support of Senator Borah, whose in fluence may keep this state out of the La Follette column. Wyoming Is still a guess. La Follette managers there are confident. So are leaders In the Coolidge campaign. After dis counting the claims of both It may h9 said that three Coolidge votes from Wyoming are not at ail unlikely. SOUTHWESTERN STATES —Na vada will probably go with La Fol lette and deprive Davis of three votes that he may be counting on. The same applies to Arizona. New Mexioo shows a strong La. Follette tinge, with Coolidge having a fair chance of car rying the state. CALIFORNIA—In California a court decision which forces La Fol lette electors to appear under the so cialist appellation has crippled the campaign of La Follette leaders In a state that shows strong leanings to wards the Wisconsin senator. A Coolidge victory here now appears more certain than at any time in the past and many observers do not hesi tate to place California in the Cool idge columns. There is every likeli hood that it will be there. The same applies to Oregon. To recapitulate, Coolidge, with 223 votes already In line, has 14 states with 109 votes in which to find 43, and this Is conceding Davis Maryland and West Virginia, which are not ab solutely certain. California, Iowa, In diana and Delaware can put him over even if Davis and La Follette carry every state in which they are con ceded a chance, a number of other combinations in which no great num ber of states Is included will win for Coolidge. No (lianre for Davis. Davis, with 165 votes, and some of them shaky, must get 101 more to win and has only six states with a total of 4S votes In which to get them. La Follette. carrying every state In which he Is conceded a chance, is still a long way from election. His oidy threat Is as a dcadlockcr and to deadlock tills election he must run practically without a failure In the middle and far western states, where he has a strong band of followers. His greatest potentiality Is 101 votes. If Coolidge carries the four doubtful states listed above. La Follette must get every one of those 101 votes to deadlock the election. If Coolidge falls In those doubtful states. La Fol lette must still llnd 69 votes to sentl the election to congress. Thirty of them he probably has. The other 29 are another thing. Arnold Bond Issue Carries. Arnold, Oct. 27.—A 350.000 bond issue for a m-w high school at Arnold carried In the election Friday. “I Tried to Lock Him in But Couldn’t Find My Key,” . | Says Grocer Shot by Bandit; Staggered After Help, - I ga*'"ST"S'- * »'•••■• -™'UJ1WM—-JL.u : Bullet Just Misses Aorta; He Describes Holdup to Wife. “1 tried to lock him in the store, but X couldn't find my keys,” explain ed Charles XI. Malllnson, 46, who was shot and seriously wounded by a ban dit who held him up In his grocery store at 202 North Seventeenth street Saturday night. Malllnson's condition was reported improved Monday morning by at taches of Lrf>rd Lister hospital. The gunman's bullet passed through Mal llnson's chest, missing tho aorta, the largest artery In the human Xjody, by one-quarter inch, examination dis closed. The missive was removed Sunday from under the skin between Malllnson’s shoulder blades. Mrs. Malllnson has been In almost constant attendance at her husband's bedside since he was shot. The grocer was able to tell her an accurate ac count of what occurred In the store during the robbery Sunday. Rattle at Door. "I had dismissed the clerks and was closing the store. A man rattled the front door, which was locked, and I went to the door to explain that the store was closed,” said Malllnson. "The next thing I knew he was in the store. " ’Where’s your money?” he de manded. flourishing a revolver. "I told him It was In the cash register and started to raise my hands. Ills gun spit almost In my face; I felt the thud of the bullet striking my chest. The man rifled the register as I lay on the floor. He got more than $100. “ 'Where's the safe?’ he then asked. I told him It was on the balcony and was unlocked, although I knew It was not. He went upon the balcony, but pretty soon shouted down: " 'D-n you: Come up here and open this.’ Call* Hotel Clerk. "I managed to get to my feet and run out of the door, expecting a shot In the hack any second. I wanted to lock him in and hold hint until help came, but I couldn’t find my keys. So I ran to the Klontar -hotel office, told the clerk to call police, and ran back to the store. "I met him as he came out, but I was too weak to hold hint.” The robber ran north on Seven teenth street and turned west on Davenport. Police have made no ar rests. There was about $500 In the safe, according to Malllnson. * ■ ■ -i-ii RADIO v - —-y Program for October **. (Courte»y of Radio Digest.) By Associated Press. WEST. Boeton. (303). 6. Radio Rally; 6:10.

(hoocMhua, circle** d**it To aad result* will often lead —Farmer Brown'a Boy. Farmer Brown’s Hoy Blames Himself. As soon as Farmer Brown's Boy saw the little tin can fast to one of Bobby Coon's fore-paws ho under stood exactly what had happened. He knew all about Bobby Coon's fond ness for bright, shiny tiling*. He guessed right away that Bobby bad found that little can sad had thrust his paw into it to see If there was anything in there. Then somehow the paw had been caught in It nnd Bobby had been unable to get rid of that can. Farmer Brown'* Boy talked gently and soothingly to Btbhy Coon. He i told him how sorry lie was. "It war all my fault." said Farmer Brown's Xioy. "I droppe 1 that can In the Laughing Brook. I had It to carry worms In when I was fishing. W hen 11 \vna through fishing I dropped that ran in tiie water. I didn't dream that it could possibly hurt any one. Ho I nm to blame, Bobby, for all the fright and pain you have sufferer!. And the least l can do Is to get you out of this trouble 1 got you Into. My, t certainly am glad Bowser and 1 came tills way this morning!" As ho talked in a low. soothing voice he kept slowly drawing nearer and near to Bobby Coon. He made no quick movements. Finally he knelt down close to Bobby and there he remained for sqme little time without trying to touch Bobby. All the time he kept talking to him gently. He watched Bobby's eyes. He saw the savage, fighting look fade away. lie snw distrust gradually grow less and less. He knew that Bobby Coon was beginning to understand that he had nothing to fear. He ddin't touch Bobby, hut just talked to him. As he talked lie wmk studying to find some way of setting Bobby free from that awful little can. “That leg Is pretty badly swollen,” said he. "I'm afraid it is useless to try to pull that can off. I guess we will have to cut it off. I mean (he can, Bobby, not your leg. 1 haven’t a thing here to do It with, so I guess I will have to take you up to the house. I wish I knew just what you are thinking. I don't want to feel those sharp teeth of yours. If I knew that you knew just what I want to do, I wouldn't hesitate to pick you up. But I am afraid you don't understand!” He slowly put out a hand toward Bobby Coon. Bobby growled and the look of fear leaped up In his eyes He slowly put out a hand toward Bobby Coon again. Farmer Brown’s Boy shook his head sorrowfully. "I thought it would be this way," said lie. "I don't blame you a bit. You can’t under stand what has hapjiened to you, and of course you can’t understand what I wmt to do for you. I guess there is nothing for it hut for me to wrap you up In my coat so that you can’t bite and then take you up to the house. ' So Farmer Brown’s Boy gently threw his coat over Bobby Coon’s head and then wrapped him up in such a way that Bobby couldn’t bite or struggle. Ail the time he did his best not to hurt that Injured leg. Then he picked Bobby up. and with Bowser the Hound at his heels start-1 ed for hornet Peter Babbit, watching wide-eyed from the end of a hollow log saw them go. Peter’s curiosity was satisfied. He knew now who It was who had growled at him under the pile of brush. He knew that Bobby Coon wars in trouble, but what the trouble was Peter didn't know. And so Peter was glad as he saw Farmer Brown's Boy taking Bobby Coon away, for Peter knew that Bobby was in the hands of a friend, (Copy The next story: "Bobby Vnder stands at larst." u les, sir!-the new PIERCE ARROW »-> Series 80 *-« is only $2895«.«*» The price of the new Pierce-Arrow Series 80 is a topic of conversation everywhere.
