Probable Line
Up of States in
the Election
The campaign has reached a stage
where those who take a speculative in
terest in results are placing this state
and that state in the republican or
democratic classification. The task of
naming the states which are certainly
democratic or certainly republican
presents little difficulty; the real test
of political sagacity comes when an
attempt is made to predict the victor
in the 15 so-called doubtful states.
As a basis for the preliminary clas
sification the 12 southern states may
be counted as surely democratic and
it is generally agreed that there are
21 northern states which are just as
certainly republican. This leaves 15
states where the real battle will be
waged. The three groups of states
are as follows:
Democratic States.

The total number of presidential
electors from the 48 states is 631, so
that it requires 266 votes to elect a
president. The democratic party, with
its nucleus of 136 electoral votes,
lacks 130 of a majority of the elec
toral college, and the republican par
ty, with 240 votes as reasonably cer
tain, lacks 26. It appears from the
analysis of the figures that the repub
licans start with a big advantage.
If Mr. Hughes carries all the states
in the republican column, and with
them carries New York, he will have
sufficient electoral votes to elect him.
Or he could lose both New York and
Indiana and by capturing a half dozen
of the smaller states win easily. On
the other hand, if the democratic par
ty loses New York it cannot win.
There is every indication that the bat
tle ground of the two parties will be
in New York and Indiana, compared
with which contests elsewhere will be
mere skirmishes. Many things can
happen before election which will in
fluence the results, but both parties
are opening the fight with an outward
show of confidence.

ALASKA SEEDS BE USED
FOR FORESTS IN NORWAY
For the purpose of obtaining data
relative to the Alaskan forests and
weather conditions, and also to secure
seeds of trees of southeastern Alaska
that same may be transplanted in
Norway, Antone Smitt, forestry ex
pert for the Norwegian government,
is visiting Juneau, with Forest Super
visor W. G. Weigle. In the party is
W. Gabrielson, representing one of the
largest newspapers in Norway.
For two weeks past Smitt has been
engaged in a tour of the Tongass for
est. Norway maintains experimental
stations and the seeds procured here
will be forwarded and these agencies
will transplant them in western Nor
way.
The Norwegian government for
some time past has been endeavoring
to reforest portions of its country and
after an investigation concluded that
the Sitka spruce, which constitutes the
bulk of the timber growth in south
eastern Alaska, would be suitable for
this purpose, hence Mr. Smitt’s visit.
THE GENTLE CYNIC
Give some men a free foot and all
they will do with it is kick.
Don’t rest on your laurels unless
you are prepared to see them wilt.
When the world owes a man a liv
ing he has a life job as a collector.
Money talks, but it doesn’t always
speak when it is spoken to.
A woman has no right to question
the love of a husband who is willing to
wear the neckties she buys him.
Man wants but little here below, but
he frequently wants a fresh supply of
it.
Strangely enough, it takes a mighty
dull man to be a bore.
There is plenty of room at the top,
but you can’t make the small potatoes
believe it.
Many a man aspires to be a political
leader when even his dog won’t follow
him.
