WO REPUBLICANS MAKE CLAIMS FOR WES Vice Chairman Adams Says Republ Can Majorities "So Enormous That He Don't Like To . Mention Them." Chicago, Oct. 28?The political si' nation in the Middle West, now "sei tied into its final form" indicate ReDublican majorities, "so enormot that one hesitates to even mentio them," according" to John T. Adam: vice chairman of the Republican m tional committee in charge of wester headquarters, who today gave 01 the following review of campaign cor ditions in that territory: "Minnesota will go for Harding b a very large majority undoubtedl above 100,000. As a national organ zation the Democratic party in Mir nesota has almost ceased to exist. "In Nebraska the Democratic 01 ganization is moribun. The Republ can majority in that state will be ur usually large, at least 50,000. % "In Iowa, Harding and Coolidg will win by well over 100,000. Sens / tor Cummins will pull thru but h will run considerably behind the na tionaj ticket. "In Wisconsin, the certainty of a enormous majority for Harding ha taken the. life out of the nations campaign. The governorship is i ! doubt. "In Illinois, the Harding and Cool idge majority is problematical. It ma Im? nrmind 250.000. I exoect to se Mr. Small win over Colonel Lewis. "In Indiana it is expected by th closest figures to go for Harding b; 55,000 or 60,000. In Michigan, Hard ing^is safe and sure, by a majority o more than 100,000. In St. Louis a: enormous Republican majority will b piled up. The state as a whole wil go Republican by more than 40,000. "North and South Dakota wi] show a vote about three to one fo Harding and Coolidge. The majori ties will not be enormous but the; will be sure. "The national Democratic ticke has been given up as hopeless and M Cox is being traded off for state car didates." NOTICE OF ELECTION STATE OR SOUTH CAROLINA, County of Abbeville.
