Figuring Out Roosevelt's Majority.

1t will be seen that the republican
national committees estimate Of the
party'S majority on November s is
rather modest. 1t gives Roosevelt
200 sure electoral votes, 239 being
necessary for choice. To Parker is
conceded Isl votes, and Colorado, Del
aware, Maryland, Montana, Nevada.
Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming,
with 35 electoral votes, are placed In
the doubtful list. or course, the Isl
votes here given to Parker include
those of Missouri. This state, in all
the calculations. republican and dem
ocratic, is classed with the solid south.
There is chance that this discredi-
table association may be ended sooner
than the party leaders on either side
expect. A republican victory In Mis-
sourl in 1904 is well within the SCOPE
Of the possibilities. Missour's 1S
