WILSON RECEIVED Kl PER 10 NT OF NATIONAL VOTE. On the strength of Incomplete re turns as to the popular vole for Wll son. Roosevelt and Tan, ine estiman was made Thursday that Governor Wilson would not have a majority of all tho votes cast. In many slates the popular vote has been only roughly eat limited thus far; but the reports Indicate unit tne combined vole of Roosevelt and Taft will be approximately one million more thnn (he vote for Wilson. The preliminary count gave Wilson approximately 4fi per cent of the vote; Roosevelt I'd per cent and Taft 25 per cent. The total vole thus far reported Is less than In liiOS, while official rcturnB nre expected lo bring It above those figures. In I 008, out of a combined vote of I 4.0110. 8.18 cast for Taft and Bryan, Taft received over 04 per cent. Majorities and Pluralities. A Wilson plurality of practically an even 200,000 votes over Taft, a Taft lead of fit). 000 over Roosevelt, and a similar alignment of parties In the Gubernatorial vole. The Demo crallc Presidential plurality Is the largest New York state has ever given that party and It Is the first time the voters outside of Hie met ropolilall district have given a Democratic Presidential candidate a plurality.

Governor West has lost In his campaign for practically every Inltlatlvo bill which he backed berore Ihe general election. Ho took particular Interest In the bill to abolish capital punishment, the bill to Immediately place the State Printer on a flat salary, the six harmony road hills and the nilllage tax bills for tho higher educational institutions, nnd woman suffrage. Apparently the main harmony road hills are slaughtered, aad If any pass the whole set will be so crippled as to he practically useless. Capital punishment Is beaten, as Is the flat salary amendment.
