evidence for Bryan constantly de
creased as reports came In from the

Missouri's 18 electoral votes, addod
to those of other states which have
gone republican, will give Taft a to

less reduced to 319 by the change of
Maryland's eight votes to Bryan.

"Please accept my congratulations
and best wishes for the success of
your administration."
After sending the telegrnm to Taft
Mr. Bryan Issued the following state
ment on the result of the election:
"It Is Impossible to sny now what
eniio contributed most to our defeat.
I made n light upon a platform em
bodying what I believed to bo good
for the people. My nomination enme
from tho voters and 1 obeyed their
commands and led the fight as best
I could. Words cannot express my
gratitude for the devotion shown by
the millions of democrats tho past 12
years. If I could regard my defeat
j as purely personal I would consider It
a blessing rather than a mlBfortuno,
I for I am relieved of the burden of
responsibility In an office thnt Is at
i tractive only in proportion as It gives
opportunity to render larger public
service, out 1 shall improve- me op
portunities presented to us. In this,
our national defeat, 1 And consolntlon

Col. Watterson Explains.
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

as In the last century it i lllierty

now materialism reaches out afte
the market!."
Total HoclngHt Vote.
CHICAGO. III., Nov. 5. Secretary
Barber, of the National Committee of
Socialists, said today that the Social
1st vote throughout the country I
Tuesday's election did not exceed
525.000. In Illinois, the stronghold
of the party, the vote will barely
reach 50.000. Oklnhonia shows the
largest gain of any of the states. The
Socialist vote then- Tuesday was
17.000, compared with 44uO at the
last election.

ELECTION FEATURES.
Frisco Endorses Graft Prosecution
Socialist Vote.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 5. The
feature of the San Frnnclsco election
was the re-eloctton of Judge Frank
H. Dunne, who has presided ovor the
trials of the big grafters, nud who
sentenced Schmltz to the state prison.
A very bitter fight was made against
Dunne by the old political machine,
which Is still directed by the Indicted
boss, Ruef, but the decentr element
In the city rallied to his suport. Judge
Carroll Cook, who has boen 18 years
on the bench, hut who represents the
Ruef machine, wns beaten, although
the combined saloon and dive ele
ment gave tiim Btrong support.
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."
It Is thought by politicians here
hat the Socialist veto In 11104 In Chi
cago was mndo abnormally large by
the ballots of dissatisfied BrynnilcB,
who refused to support Judgo Parker.
