POPULAR VOTE ELICEAI IS. HIS
WIS 737,876 MM CLASH! BURNED TODAY
Bryan Received 6,393,182 In
Grand Total of 14,852,239
Votes Cast.
NEW YORK, Dec. 29. The total
popular vote of the presidential can
didates at the last national election
was made known In an official
form by the filing of the last official
vote, that of Michigan. The total
shows the following votes cast:
Taft, republican, 7,G37,67G.
Bryan, democrat, 6,393,182.
Debs, socialist, 448,463.
Chafin, prohibitionist, 241,252.
Hlsgen, independence, 83,186.
Watson, people's, 33,871.
Gllhaus, socialist-labor, 15,421.
Total for all candidates, 14,852,
239. This grand total exceeds by 1,341,
531 the total number of votes cast
In the presidential election of 1904,
when the grand total was 13,510,
708. Compared with the 1904 election,
the candidates of the republican and
democratic and socialist parties In
creased their vote this year. The
reverse Is true of the candidates of
the prohibition, populist and socialist-labor
parties. The Independence
party did not figure in the presiden
tial election four years ago.
Bryan Far Exceeded Parker.
The biggest difference In a party
"vote Is shown In an increase for Bry
an of 1,315,211 over the total vote
cast in 1904 for Alton B. Parker, the
democratic candidate. Taft received
14,190 votes more than were polled
for President Roosevelt In 1904, and
Debs run 49,368 ahead of his prede
cessor on the socialist ticket.
The heaviest loss Is shown by the
populist party, which, with the same
candidates, registered 83,312 votes
less this year than In 1904, when
their total was 117,183. Tho prohi
bition candidate, Chafin, ran 17,284
votes behind the 1904 mark of his
party, and Gllhaus, the socialist-labor
candidate, received only about" 50
per cent of tho vote given to Corri
gan, which was 31,249 in the pre
vious presidential race.
Leading States for Taft.
New York, 870,070; Pennsylvania,
745,779 and Illinois, 029,932, gave
Taft the greatest number of votes
among tho states, while as to Bryan
the order was New York, 6G7.468;
Ohio, 502,721 and Illinois, 450,810.
Tho votes cast for Taft and Bryan
were almost identical In number in
two states, namely, Maryland and
Nevada. In tho first mentioned Taft
received 111,253 and Bryan 111,117,
and In the other 10,214 and 10.G55,
respectively.
Where Debs Scored.
Dobs received his largest voto in
Pennsylvania 39,913, Illinois, 39,711
nnd New York 38,451, Delaware
i;ave him only 7G votes.
Hlsgon's voto in Now York, 35,817,
nnd In his own state, Massachusetts,
.19,237, together formed nearly two
thirds of all the votes ho received In
"the whole country.
In six states not a voto was cast
for Hlsgen. Nino states registered
not a single voto for tho prohibition
candidate. Tho socialist-labor can
didate received votes In only 13
states and In only 19 states were
"Votes cast for Watson of tho populist
party.

AGENT H. W. SKINNER ISSUES
STATEMENT CONCERNING AC
TION OF LOCAL RAILROAI TO
WARDS HIS STEAMSHIP.
Editor "3flmes:
"A recent ruling of Mr. C. J- 5M11
11s, general manager ol the C. B. R.
& E. ;R. 3k N. Co., If curled lnts ief
fect will tiffectually force all the
merchants af Coqullle and Myrfile
Point to slihv their good. only by tlie
steamer "Rrwakwater."
"The railroad has refosed to ac
cept through-Shipments from the
"Alliance" on -which tho steamer
freight charges havo not been pre
paid. This in effect means tlint they
will receive no freight from the "Al
liance" and that Ihe upper Ctquille
river country -will bo forced to use
the "Breakwater" soolely.
"This move on the part of the
railroad people Is purely one of retal
iation because we continue to deliver
Bandon freight to the "Wllholmlna."
thereby saving the Bandon mer
chants $1.75 on every ion and three
days In the time of delivery of their
goods. We are glylng these people
a better and more efficient .service,
but tho railroad wants the haul of
this freight. They hope to force us
to give up this service by their
latest move of refusing to take-up the
steamer charges on through ship
ments via the "Alliance" for Co
qullle and Myrtle Point.
Wo do not propose to be cut out .of
this business and I shall present per
sonally to all the merchants of Co
qullle and Myrtle Point a plan that
we have devised that will enable
them to ship by the "Alliance" If
they so desire, with no more trouble
than formerly.
We believe that Coqullle and Myr
tle Point are entitled to. two boats
a week and will not permit the
Railroad to, arbitrarily limit this to
one boat each week. We are on
this run to stay and will not be scar
ed off by any such bluff."
"It would appear that the railroad
Interests Instead of endeavoring to
Improve the service to Coos Bay and
vicinity are trying to drive all com
petitors off the run and to limit our
connections with Portland to one
boat each week. There Is ample
room for two boats," unless one Is
allowed to corral all of the business
by means which are unfair and un
businesslike. "II. W. SKINNER,
"Agent of the Alliance"
George Moulton has been appoint
ed agent at Coqullle and A. E. Dodge
at Myrtle Point to look after the Al
liance business in that section.
MILLIS MAKES STATEMENT.
Ihiihvny Munnger Denies That He Is
Discriminating.
C. J. Mlllls, general manager of
the local railway, when shown the
above statement said, "Tho state
ment is Incorrect. We do not refuse
to accept freight from the Alliance
but simply refuse to act as the
steamship's agent in collecting
freight charges. Heretofore, wo
utlYe advanced these charges and
made collections of the consignee
ourselves. This has been disconti
nued and tho Alliance must make its
own collections. This action is not
one of retaliation but ono of protec
tion and was taken after a confe
rence with' Mr. Prentiss Gray of the
steamship Alliance who acknowledg
ed tho justice of our position."
