LOUISVILLE, Ky., Nov. 6. Re viewing the election editorially in the Courier-Journal today, Col. Henry Watterson BayB: "The reBiilt shows conclusively that the great majority ot the controlling section of the un Ion are contented with things bb they are; that they believe It better to en dure the conceded shortcomings of the party In power than to embark upon an unknown sea of continuous agitation. Bryan's election meant this, while Taft's election means rest In short, the dollar, though tainted In the hand Is worth a hush full of patriotic abstraction. The ldlosyn I cracy of the present day Is commen as In the last century it i lllierty reaching out after Institutions, which freedom measurably attained, whTic now materialism reaches out afte the market!."

Socialist Vote Changes. CHICAGO, Nov. 4. The Socialist vote of 16,000 shows a loss of 12,000 from tho figures of 1904. National Committeeman Simons, In explaining the falling off, said: "The reduction Is largely tho resull at the efforts of tho organization to make its members support the old parties. The Increase in the Socialist vote throughout the entire country will be 50 per cent, despite the fili ng off in tho Industrial centers."
