FACING Under the caption,
THE Facing the Figures, the
FIGURES Globe Democrat under
takes to show that there
is no hope for the Democrats to win
in the national election in 1904. It's
figures are made up from the returns
in the last elections held in the states,
and are as follows:
BY the apportionment of representa-
tives made by congress under the cen
in 1904 will be 476. The number nee
essary to a choice is 2339, or fifteen
more than in the previous decade. In
the latest elections. including those
of the present month the following
states were carried by the Republic

12. The total electoral votes in Demo
cratic states, 166 Republican major
ity # electoral votes, gagged by the
latest elections. 144.
The Globe Democrat figures are
somewhat discouraging to the Demo-
Gratis. and at first glance il would
seem impossible for the Democrats
so win next year. but the late Charles
A. Dana said, when questioned IS to
a certain change in his editor1al
views. replied that what might be a
mans opinion in January might not be
his opinion in June, hence how severa
OF the states went in the last elections
may not at all be how they will so
in 1904 and the results in some of the
recent state elections Indicate that
there may be some radical changes
by 1904. and that several states which
went Republican in the last elections
held may go Democratic next year
in the national election.
In the Globe Democrats list of Re
publican states are New York, SO
votes Delaware. votes; Indiana 27
votes; New Jersey, u votes; Nebras-
ka, S votes, a total of - votes. and
change of 73 is all that is necessary
in the Globe Democrats figures to win
out f~v the Democrats. With plat
form of sound principles and candi-
date in sympathy herewith and who
las the confidence of the business in
treests of the country. the states nam
ed can bee arried by the Democrats.
There are other states which may
be counted as Democratic if the Dem
of rats will use gced judgment in max
ins platform and naming candidates.
The outlook for Democratic success
in 1904 is not so gloomy as the Globe
Democrat would have yca believe.

. has any section of the South suffered
greater calamity. with the possible
exception Of Galveston, than that
which struck the prosperous manufac
turing section near Spartanburg. S.
c.. early last Saturday morning The
disaster was the immediate result of
cloudburst just at the foot OF the
mountains. In n few minutes time the
swollen streams had picked up great
buildings of brick and stone. and car
ried them down like houses of straw.
The number OF lives lost will reach
near or over hundred The property
loss Is appalling. Six thousand la
bore-s arr idle and starvation seems

count of the disaster:

IMMENSE LOSS TO RAILROADS.
Tho loss to railway and Industrial
property is almost incalculable. The
destruction of the cotton mills means
loss of at least $5,OOO,OOO. The finan-
cal damage to the Southern is enor-
nous and cannot be ectimated at this
time.
Apart from the direct injury caused
b. the loss of the expensive bridges.
the Southern will sustain great blow
in the blocking of traffic over its main
lire and branch lines indefinitely.
