The Democratic congressman who ex-
tract so much comfort for themselves
out of the small majority by which
their party was defeated in this State
win do wen to lay aside for nce their
superficial methods Of calculating and
look at the facts as they are.
Comparisons and percentages are the
lofty ideals Of Democracy, and we com.
mend the following to their careful
perusal. Last year the Democratic vote
in the State was 90, 249 this year MI.
Wudwell received 25,429. Tabulate
these figures and they appear as fol-
lows:
Democratic vote 1904 c5.4oo
Democratic vote iso1 2a.24o
-
cain m vvss. $3.50
Percentage Of gain over 1891 .-.......... 1L.4
The Republican vote last year was
20,995 this year Mr.. Brown received
27,466. Tabulate these figures and we
reach the following results;
Repubiicsn vote. isse........ .......... 27.4oc
Republican vote, 1891. co.o95
-
0oin IN vote. 6,471
fercsmtxgs OF gum over ISpf. .....,......... sos
It will be observed that the Republi-
can gain has been twice as great as the
Democratic gain-a fact surely not con-
ducive to Democratic satisfaction. But
to pursue the percentage question still
further, we give still another table;
Republican gain In one ear............ can
Democratic gain In one year...~.-...... $3.50
-
Net Republican gain....-.. ....s....... 1901
percentase Of Republican gain greater than
103
We need not comment further on
these figures, but III concluding it may
be well to call attention to the fact that
Last year our Democratic friends carried
the State by a plurality Of 1854, while
this year the Republicans carried it by a
plurality of 2,035-a total difference of
3,2So.
And yet the Democratic congressman
have the courage to say that this was a
small victory!
