DEMOCRATS TAKE
LOSS CHEERFULLY
Speculate on Bryan's Chances
Next Election if He
Should Run.
GROWN USED TO DEFEAT
Sentiment at Democratic Headquar
ters Indicates Hang-Together
Spirit, Even in Downfall of
Their Ticket. .
"The spirit of the Democrat is truly
remarkable. He quaileth not at defeat,
he rejolceth in extremity, he listeneth
without anger to the taunting sounds,
he "
J3ut the sound of the voice died sud
denly when State Chairman Alex Sweek,
State Secretary John B. Ryan and Coun
ty Clmirman George B. Thomas, of the
Democratic committees: W. N. Gatens,
secretary to Governor Chamberlain: H.
S. J. .McAllister and State 9enator Milton
A. Milton, of Linn County, turned their
eyea "suddenly In the direction whence it
had proceeded. The six bedrock Demo
crats were In process of being Inter
viewed as to the result of the election
when the vocal noise disturbed their
mental mechaniFm. Chairman Sweek
turned his smilingly interrogative eyes
on the five others.
"'Not me." said Miller,
"Not me," said the others, with the
exception of McAllister.
"I'll say," said McAllister, "that the
face of the Democrat Is truly remark
able. It shows no signs of distress. I'm
not responsible for the rest."
Stick Together In 'Defeat.
Chairman Sweek's said expression said
"We'll let It go at that," but vocally he
said, "the spirit is here. . In defeat, we
have the old guard here," and he looked
around upon loo or more bedrock Demo
crats who knew for a certainty of the
overwhelming defeat of Bryan, and yet
stayed In the headquarters and waited
for returns and a chance to cheer even a
slight victory in an isolated locality.
"We stand." said Chairman Sweek,
after a survey of his audience, "for
the same principle that we have stood
for since the first nomination of Bryan,
12 years ago. Four years hence the
public will recognize that principle.
Bryan was certainly right on the main
Issues of the campaign. He is a great
leader and he is not downed and
never will be downed except by death.
The election of Taft is certainly a
great defeat for organized labor."
"Bryan will most unequivocally be"
my candidate in 1912, whether John
son be elected Governor of Minnesota
or Chanler of New York," said Mr.
McAllister.
Bryan's Chance Next Time.
"If Johnson were our candidate this
year -the Democrats would have the
next President of the United States,"
said Harry Wolf, the veteran Demo
cratic warhorse. who Just Btepped Into
the room. "When I came back from
the East I said that. Not a manu
facturer there was for Bryan. Bryan
had had two trials and the people
were tired of him."
"Bryan made a gallant fight," said
Senator Miller. "He fell for a prin
ciple we all stand for. I don't know
who the devil our next candidate will
be." f
"Bryan sure. If Bryan is alive," In
terrupted H. D. Wagnon. "It Is true
that Bryan was slaughtered this time,
but I believe in a slaughter every
time for a principle."
"Slaughter la nothing unusual for
us." said Miller. "The Oregonlan once
said that if the Democrats were beat
they could say that they had been beat
before. No disgrace in that. Is there?
We'll make another fight, and if we
lose again our spirit remains."

Catlln. "He has had three trials, and
I believe he should give place to
some other candidate Johnson or
Chanler, if either be elected Governor
of his state."
"I'll keep my opinion to myself for
a day or two." said Secretary Ryan.
"You shouldn't" Interjected the irre
pressible Henry Gray. "The Democrats
are carrying Wheeling, W. Va, and
all because Klklns Is permitting his
daughter to marry a foreign prince.
Don't repeat the story, I've copyrighted
it. If we can contrive to get a couple
hundred more millionaire Republicans
to many their daughters to foreign
princes, we might carry the county in
1912."
"Hurrah!" was the greeting of Al
Tozier. Democrat since he attained his
majority (how) many years ago.
"Apple crop fine up In Hood River?"
Inquired Gatens, with an expression that
he intended as a comforting preliminary
to the serious conversation that would
follow.
"Down to market your crop, Aa I pre
sume?" naively inquired Chairman
Sweek. ...
"No. hang It! I came down to vote,
and also to see how a house could fall
on me."
The mirth was suppressed.
Waiting for Returns.
"Well, Al. have you been there be
fore?" Tnquired J. H. Fletcher, former
Lieutenant-Governor of South Dakota
and now a capitalist of St. John.
"Three times Bryan and once Parker
and I've Just given my third hurrah
for Bryan."
"Well, then." said Fletcher, "you
can bear the news like a noble Roman.
But." gravely, "more than a house fell
upon you this time."

"I presumed bo from the Bound of

nine, ten and 12-story buildings shake?"
"No," said Fletcher.
"Good night, then; I'm back to the
apple fields for the next four years."
"Stay awhile longer," advised Harry
Grafton, one of the warriors of the
party. "We're getting good news from
both Jehnson and Chanler."
Mr. Tozier took a seat and entered into
a discussion of city and county politics.
He said he' still claimed Portland as his
legal residence, and without the knowl
edge of enemies or friends he had
dropped down to vote for Bryan.
'Looks like old times to see you boys
around," he said. "There were Just about
as many around to say 'howdy' to me
when I lost out in my race for City Audi
tor in 189. Democrats always stick to
gether until the candle burns out."
Accustomed to Losing
"We are certainly cheerful losers." re
marked Grafton.
"We've got accustomed to it," said Mu

becomes a part of our nature."
"Landslides are nothing to us." contrib
uted Bishop H. L. Barkley. ;'In our fa
vor or against us we receive them with
neither hilarity nor regret, but with sane
Joy:" .
"I'm sorry the landslide is against us
this time," said Gatens. "I hope Taft
will perform all he has promised to do
give us better times, more prosperity
and a fuller dinner pall for the work
lngman." "The landslide surprised me," said Colo
nel W. T. -Bumey. "I believed from what
a prominent Republican Grand Army
man told me that oertain parts of the
East he had visited were safe for Bry
an. They went for Taft."
"Now. let's call It oft for four years,"
said William Foley, of legal fame, and
bestowing his contagious Hibernian smile
upon the whole party and a number of
the faithful that were not members of
it, he sank Into a chair, only to rise
again in a minute, with this to say:
'Boys, we're up Salt Creek. We have to
put a happy face upon it, .as we have
done before. We'll be together - again
four years from now if all are living,
but let's call it off for the present. I'm
going home, not sickened by defeat, but
because I've been working all day."
Chairmen Sweek and Thomas, respect
ively, of the state and county -committees,
and Secretary Ryan, of the state
committee, did not take the barrister's
advice. Instead they remained at head
quarters until the operator said the last
returns had been received.

NEW YORK, Nov. 3. At 10:30 o'clock
Chairman Frank Hitchcock of the Re

newspaper reporters in Ills office at Na

ing statement:
"The returns speak for themselves.

tations. "The plurality In Indiana will be less
than I expected. That In Illinois Is far
more than anticipated. And so it goes.
Where one state has not quite come up to
the figures I had expected, some other
state has gone far beyond. The latest re
turns from Maryland Indicate that we
have carried that state by about 8000 te

would give.

"The people have explained that. It is
