THE TOTAL POPULAR VOTE.
Mckinley Got 133,35I More Ballots
Than in 1886.

The New York World of today says: With
official returns from nearly forty states and
complete figures on the remainder the
World is enabled to print some details of
the popular vote for President. In 1896 the
total vote was 13,923,37S. In 1900 without
counting the vote for Mallory, socialist la
Dor, and other minor candidates, the popu-
lar vote IS 13SS3,94 so that the total will
be remarkably close to that of four years
ago. In 1896 the popular vote was 1,S1G142
larger than that Of 1892
Mr. Mckinley received 7,23S, 100 votes in
1900 gain of 133, 351 over 1885, Mr. BRYAN
got $500, $50 votes, a loss OF 1895 as
compared with four years ago. Woolley
prohibtionist, $4,000 votes; Debs social
democrat. 73,470, and Barker, middle-of-
the-road populist, 54,s13.
Mr.. McKinley's greatest gain was in
Utah, where his vote jumped from 13, 461
to 47.1O0. His greatest loss was in Ten
nessee-37 1855. Mr.. Bryan fell behind 4O,!,SO
in that state.
Mr.. Bryans greatest gain was in New
York, where he polled 124, 1913 more votes
than in 1896. and where Mr. Mckinley
gained but 1,472. His greatest loss was in
Texas-11O.434. MIR. McKinleys vote fell
off about 5000 in the lone star state.
In only four of the states composing
what was once the solid south did Mr..
Bryan gain over his vote of 1896. They
were Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland and
West Virginia, giving him 1854 mora
votes than in 1896 In Florida, Georgia,
Louisiana, Mississippi. Missouri, North Car
DINA, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and
Virginia he lost 136957 Deductng his
gains. his net loss in the aforetime solid
south is 81 ,033.
In Idaho Mr.. Bryan gained 6.225 over
his vote of 1896, although his plurality was
reduced from 16S6S to 2,170. In the other
states carried in 1896 with the aid of the
populists and free silver republicans-Colo--
RADIO, Kansas. Montana, Nevada, Utah and
Washington-he lost 81, 524, making a net
loss of 1929 In these states. Mr.. Bryans
losses in the south and in the small west
ern and northwestern states exceed his to-
tai loss in the country.
In the crucial states of New York, Illf-
neis and Indiana and in his own state OF
Nebraska Mr.. Bryan ran behind the der0r
Ocratic state tickets.

A Man to the Rescue!
The Woman in Peril Rarely Finds
Help From Her Own Sex.

1t is in no wise to a wOman's dis
credit that she is not professional
life saver. We can only fancy her in
the fireman's helmet, in the crew of
the life boat. or welding a police
mans club, at the loss of some OF
that fineness which is the distinguish
ing quality of her sex. The Molly
Pitchers and Grace Darlings are only
examples of the sublime self-forget-
tulness OF women in great emergen-
cies.
It's much the same in other WAYS.
Women turn to the strength. skill
and Judgment OF men in the crisis of
life.
