REPUBLICANS PREPARED TO
LOSE MANY MEMBERS IN
THE FALL ELECTIONS.
CHICAGO, Il—The last of ‘the
primaries in the west for the nomina
tion of candidates for United States
senators and representatives has been
held and the election campaign is on.
With only one-third of the senate to
be elected the republicans, who now
have a majority of 22, are assured of
continued control of that body in the
next congress, though possibly by a
reduced majority, and the principal
question the election will answer is
whether the republicans are to retain
control of the house also.
The Harding landslide of 1920 gave
the republicans the unusual and whol
ly abnormal majority of 169 in the
house, too unwieldly and unmanage
able a majority, say the party leaders,
who hold that about 50 make the
tidiest, handiest margin for all practi-l
cal purposes.
Close to 100 districts normally dem
ocratic in the last decade were swept
into the republican column by the
Harding avalanche and nearly all of
these are expected to revert to t_vp("
in the November election this year.
Also the republicans are prepared to
lose a considerable number of addi
tional districts which they generally
carry by a comparatively small plural
itv. Republican leaders would be hap
py to find they had a majority of 20
or 30 votes, or even less if all those
elected as republicans could be de
pended upon to stay on the reserva
tion on important roll calls or not gol
over to the democrats when mmt'
needed. 1
The democrats are supremely con
fident of recapturing control of the
house this vear, all because of the dis
content in the country that has been
manifested in strikes, in ebuliitions of
radicalism and disparagement of the!
Harding administration and of the rv-l
publican congress.
“Yes, 1 should not be surprised if!
we were to lose the house,” said nl](‘l
eminent republican leader in :isse~.<ing|
the situation. “Things do look a bit|
squally, but I don’t believe we are
licked yet. We have bumper crops,
worth $1,500,000,000 more than last
vear's crops; business has begun to
boom and was being checked only by
the coal and rail strikes. If the admin
istration can get the crops and coal
moving we should be tasting prosperi
tv in October.
“Give us a few weeks of prosperity
and you will be surprised how many
people will forget the grouches on the
party in power they always contract
during hard times.”
11 the democrats carry the house the
G. O. P. will be up to the neck in
trouble for the next two years, if nm‘
longer. The democratic aim will be to |
discredit the republican regime and to,
that end the democrats will thwart the
completion of the Harding legislative
program and otherwise annoy and em
barrass the executive.
The law making death the wages of
sin has never been repealed, amended
nor declared unconstitutional.

WHEN BETTER AUTOMOBILES ARE BUILT, BUICK WILL BUILD THEM
DAWSON YOUNG NON
\ BICYCLE?;‘RIg TO WEST
Expects to Reach Los Angeles in the
Short Space of Six Weeks.
Another former Dawson boy is
speeding away to California on his
Ihicyclc. Joseph S. Wilson having left
Macon vesterday for the long trip of
4.000 miles. He will make the entire
trip on his wheel and expects to reach
l.os Angeles in about six weeks.
Young Wilson, now 19 years of age,
was reared here in the home of his
aunt, Mrs. J. S. Clay, having lost his
mother at an early age. He was very
popular in Dawson as a little boy, and
his iriends here have never lost inter
est in him, and wish him the best of
luch on his long journey.
Rev. J. A. Harmon Heard
At the Methodist Church
Made Appeal for Prompt Payment of
Pledges to Education Fund.
Rev. J. A. Harmon in a strong and
convincing discourse at the Methodist
church Sunday morning at the eleven
o'clock service presented the cause,
which he so ably represents, and out
lined a plan for increasing the interest
of the church in the fundamental duty,
the Christian education of its young
people. Dr. Harmon based his clear
cut arguments for Christian institu
tions of learning on the facts that the
agnostic has no positive belief in any
thing supernatural, while the fool says
in his heart “there is no God.” The
Christian, on the other hand, has‘
something vital on which to build and
can say, “1 know in whom I have bc-‘
lieved,” the only true and living God.
Dr. Harmon has traveled ('xt(*nsi\'c-!
ly in Europe and has seen the blight
ing effects of rationalism. The (‘(luca-‘
tional movement of the Methodist
church is to check the rising tide
which threatens to sweep over this
country, and Dr. Harmon’s appeal was
to every Methodist to meet their obli-|
gations by a prompt payment oil
pledges made to the Christian educa
tion camnaizn fund. l

CANADIAN LIQUORS ON SALE

~ DUCTORS AND PORTERS.:
| CHICAGO. Negro porters and
‘white conductors of pullman cars, who
‘have confessed to participation in the
$2,000,000 rum running business be
tween New Orleans and Chicago, have
