10 the Editor Of The Evening Star:
ihe accompanying table tells the simple
story OF the election in regard to the popu-
latlon' wealth and illiteracy. 1t is based
on the last United States census reports.
Ihere are 45 states with a population of
'o.56OOOO and an Industrial wealth of
$o4.Wo'ooo,O0O or an average per capita of
$9io. twenty-five states with popula ton
OF 4o'ooo,OO0 voted for Mckinley and 20
states with population of 25.OOOOOO voted
1or bryan. This shows that nearly two
thifds OF the population are in states tina t
repuulated free silver. The total Industrial
wealth OF these % Mckinley states is
S4I I5S4, ,I7916, while the 20 Bryan states
nave but $l6,6s0, ,3S4, ,9S4 or about one-third
as much The average amount of the %
NJ Mchlhley states Is $1,S95, 1888. 719, while the
~ Bryan states average but $s34.O19, ,249, or

FROM an educational standpoint the sta

that there are three times as many litter,
