THE POPULAR VOTE OF 1896.

The Galveston News has taken some
trouble to gather Information upon
which to base an opinion rs to the size
of the popular vote of 1896. and from ali
indications II is led to the belief that the
vote to-day will he enormously in excess
of that of previous elections. 1t thinks
that the increase of population within
the past four years would explain an or
binary increase, but the indications are
that the totals ut the coming election
Will aggregate about l5o00.000 The vote
of 1892 was 12,1lO.G33, against 1882. So

Carolina. Tennessee. Vermont. Nir-
GINA.
The decrease. however. according to
our contemporary way of thinking
was not due to the loss of population
hut largely to Republican dissatisfaction
with MIR. Harrison's denomination. and
partially 10 lack of interest among
many Southern Democrats who realized
that nn serious opposition existed i'm
their States. With sixteen States show
ing decreased vote in 1892. there were
still IiS,@5i more votes cast than in

counted for by the vote of the new

kotn. North Dakota. Washington and
