nesota, Indiana and Ohio have given n
Similar result, and although the Republi-
can plurality in Massachusetts, has been
strikingly reduced, owing doubtless to the
strength of the anti-imperialist sentiment
there, it is still decisive. Maryland has
had a Republican landslide similar to
that Of four years ago.
In the great West beyond the Missouri
the Republicans make gains. They have
held California, Oregon and North Da-
kota. which they carried four years ago
They have carried Kansas, South Da-
kota, Washington, Utah, Wyoming,
idaho and possibly Nebraska, all Of
which were for Bryan in 1896. So far
as incomplete returns indicate ut this
writing Mr.. Bryan failed to win the cleo
toral vote of any of the States that were
classed as doubtful. Practically all the
States that declared for Mckinley in
1896 did the same Mt this election.
Mr.. Bryan made heavy inroads into the
Republican majorities of four years ago
IN nearly all the Eastern States, espe-
cialiy those Of New England. In Massa-
chusetts the Mckinley majority was re-
duced practically 100000 as compared
with four years ago. The city of Boston
gives Mr.. Bryan a small plurality. The
New York Democratic leaders fulfilled
their pledge to carry greater New York
for Mr.. Bryan, but the State vote was
Overwhelmingly Republican.
There was a ~phenomenally heavy vote
throughout the entire country. Out Of the
forty-6ve States and three territories Mr..
Bryan failed to make substantial gains
anywhere except in the East. Even there
the cutting Of Republican majorities was
insufficient to give him the electoral vote
Of a single State that declared for Mr..
Mckinley four years ago. In the West
most of the States that rolled I'M big free
silver majorities in 1906 were apparently
less enthsNiastic for Mr.. Bryan this year.
The Southern vote was normal and there
were no OBJECTIONS in this section from
the Democratic columns.
President Mckinley has broken all rec
ords and upset all traditions in American
politics. He is the first man to defeat
twice in succession the same opponent in
the presidential race. He is the first
president since Grant to secure a second
term Immediately following his first.
Mr.. Bryan repeated his performance Of
1896. He pleaded his cause before more
than a thousand audiences and spoke to
several million voters. Whatever criti-
cisms his opponents have made Of his
governmental theories and policies, all
unite in admiration Of his indomitable
will, confident spirit and marvellous ply
Aiquc. A campaign that would exhaust
the average man seemed to tire him but
slightly. Few men could endure the ex-
ertion, physical and mental. which was
required Of Mr.. Bryan during the cam
paign.

FEARED THE SILENT VOTER.

The one feature of the campaign which

Political activity, as it was understood

seemed lacking to such an extent as to
bewilder the experts, who were relying
on surface events to furnish them with
Indications of what would happen ON clec.

The percentage of voters who declined
to state who was their choice for Prcsi-
dent was so large this year as to estab.
fish a new record. There were almost
countless thousands of them in tho mid.
die West and Eastern States. Not only
did they refuse to state how they were
going to vote. but they refraincd from nil
participation in the work of the cam
paign. They eschewed the political pa.
rade. remained away from the political
mass meeting. exhibited an unnatural in.
difference for distinguished candidates
and ignored the proximity of spellbindrrs.
They refused to express enthusiasm mr.
sympathizc with the artificial enthusiasm
of politicians.
The whole trend of the campaign man.
ayers in the States of the middle Wcst
during the last days was to aronse the
farmer sufficiently to insure his going to

not mean that the farmer was neglected
