A PRESENT FORECAST FOR 192S
In concluding this series of articles
on political conditions in the “Sottd
South” the writer again reiterates
that he has Attempted only to express
in some appreciable measure the sen
timents of the rank and file of South
ern Democrats. For the purpose of
the series he has avoided the views of
Democratic politicians whose ideas
concerning the existing^party situa
tion are .governed largely by self-in
terest. The attempt has been made
accurately to “sense” the actual con
ditions as they appear to the minds of
a large number of voters of widely
diverse opinions and localities.

Any forecast on the 1928 presiden
tial campaign uttered two years in ad
vance must necessarily smack of a
certain degree of dogmatism. If it is
assumed that Coolidge will be the Re
publican nomineee and Governor
Smith the democratic nominee, and if.
we assume that present conditions will
also prevail in 1928, a conservative es
timate of the lineup of the “Solid
South” — including Maryland, Ken
tucky, Oklahoma and Missouri as bor
der states—would be somewhat as
follows:
Smith
Virginia. South Carolina, Florida,
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louis
iana, Texas, Arkansas.
Coolidge
Kentucky, Tennessee, Oklahoma,
Missouri.
Doubtful
Maryland, North Carolina.
Exception will be taken to this list
as compiled by many who believe that
Smith would lose most of the South
ern states. There are some who as
sert with positive assurance that Vir
ginia and Florida are certain to go
into the anti-Smith column if the is
sue should arise. But, taking into
consideration the past performances
of the electorate of the Southern
states and surveying the character
and calibre of the leaders of the Re
publican organization in each of those
states, the aforesaid division at this
time seems both fair and safe.
publicans in very recent years, would
he pertain to go Republican should
Smith be nominated. But such per
sons should remember that Florida
has also in late years become the j
home of many thousands of Southern
Democrats from such states as Geor
gia and A&bama, and that their votes
will no doubt offset the votes of the
northern Republicans. The Repub
lican organization in Florida, however,
is increasing in prestige, and Gover
nor Smith might have a close call.
Arkansas in 1924 cast 84,000 votes
for Davis and 40,000 for Coolidge. A
change of less than 25,000 votes ^
would affected the result; but with
such a weak organization as the Re-
' publicans have in that state it is
doubtful that such a change is pos
sible.
South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama
and Mississippi are so overwhelmingly
Democratic that they*. would seem
safely in the Smith column. Here the
calibre of the Republican organiza
tions is hot up to standard and the*
Democratic nominee, whoever he is,
seems a sure winner.
Louisiana and Texas would present
a little harder problem for the Smith
forces; but the large Democratic lead
in those states would make it a diffi
cult job to swing them into the Re
publican column In Texas the fall
ing off in the Democratic vote would
be pronounced, but scarcely enough to
change its political allegiance.
The one Southern state which seems
more certain for Smith than any oth
er is South Carolina, and the reason
for this is not because of any pro-
Smith sentiment, but because of the
character of the Republican organi
zation. In 1924 Davis got _49,000
votes and Coolidge 1,123. That tells
the whole story about South Carblina.
In this forecast it should be observ
ed that Smith gets most, if not all, of
the “breaks.” He cannot reasonably
expect more, and he might easily ob
tain less. He cannot, in fact, afford
to take very much for granted in the
“Solid South.”
