ELECTION UNCERrATNrrrs.

Prior to the late election there was no little discussion of the independent vote, and much speculation as to how that vote would be cast. It was con- cedsd by those who kept themselves posted that 1t was in the power of the independent vote--the uncertain vote in fact, to decide the result, The re- turns from various States show how this vote was cast. For example, take the four States of Colorado, Massachu- setts, Minnesota and Missouri; they went for Roosevelt by an aggregate plurality of 254,00O, yet all four elect ed Democratic governors by an aggre- gate plurality of s5.OoO. Again, take as another example the six States of Michigan. New Jersey. New York. Rhode Island, West Virginia and Wis oonsin, all of which went for Roose- welt and elected Republican govern- ors. Their aggregate plurality for President was 503,000 in round num- bers, but the plurality for Governors was 23O.s0O--a difference of more than one-half. In other words. there were some 273,o0O men who voted the Re- publican ticket for President but faiI- ed to vote 1t for Governor.
 One of the greatest surprises was in Minnesota Two years ago the Repnb- lican candidate for Governor had a piu. rality Of over 5e,000. This year Roose- velt's plurality was 125.OOo. but a Dem ocrat was elected Governor by 16.000 or more. Massachusetts Is another exc ample. For twelve years tue Rspub- licans have carried the State for State and National tickets by pluralities ranging from 3T.OOO, the lowest. to 17S.- 900. which was the highest Republican vote ever cast in the State, and was cast for Mckinley in 1896. yet the Democrats elected the Governor this year by fully S5,0O0.
 These are some of the results which show how difficult 1t Is to forecast an election. Scratching tickets Is a pas- time so freely tndulged in that 1t ia liable in any election to completely knock out the calculations of the shrewdest politician, and to swamp the hopes of the most optimistic candidate. In Minnesota the voters were incensed by the attempts of certain Republican bosses to cast discredit on the Demo- cratic candidate for Governor because of his humble Origin-beeause, in short, his father was trlfllng and worthless and his mother had to do mental labor to support her family. The American love of fair play revolted at this spirit of caste, and the voters showed their displeasure in a way that was as ef- fective as 1t was creditable.
 In Massachusetts the surprise was even greater. We wen remember how the Republican papers ridiculed the candidacy Of Douglas. calling 1t merely an advertising scheme of the big shoe man. and declaring that he and his party had no expectation of eleeting him. There was no special cause for Republicans to refuse to vote for their own candidate, Bates, It is true that he had made himself somewhat un- popular with the labor element and 1t Is also true that Douglas was more in line with popular sentiment on the tariff and reciprocity Issues, but 1t was not seriously believed that thesa aues-

A Time to clay Lovv.',

New York World
 MT Bryan has brought out his maps and his charts, summoned his field marshals, and is amusing himself by making preparations fo- tbs fourth hattie.
 This is innocuous activity and will come to nothing. Planning future campaigns now ia as foolIsh1y prema- ture a performance as would be the planting of corn in December. The control of the party organization Is worth more on paper than 1t Is worth in a National Convention. Mir. cleve- lend controlled the Democratic organ ization in 1896, but he could not sup press Bryan and the Heaven-born ra- tio Mir. Bryan controlled the organi- zation in 1904, but he could not block the nomination of Judge Parker.
 All talk of reorganising or recon structtng the Democratic Party at this time is absurdly '"prsvious. What Is there to do? Nobody knows what his tory the Roosevelt administration will make or unmake. If the President sue ceeds in forcing a reasonable revision of the tarife; if he adopts vigorous measures for the enforcement or the Antitrust and Interstate Commerce laws; if he promotes the cause of ul- timate independence for the Ftliplnos' and does not try to spend more money than the Government can collect, what will be Mir. Bryan's paramount issue Win he return to the 1896 demand for that the war Is failure?
 The obvious wisdom for the Demo- crats Is to emulate Brer Rabbit and lay low" until they see what the ad- ninistration and Congress purpose to O or not to do.

surprIsIne EIeetIon Guess.

MeflQlan JOuFlaL
 On November II. 1901, The Hartford Times printed as part of a Horoscope and Prediction of President Roosevelt" I" made and published by Julius Erickson. the following:
 The campaign of 1904 win reveal the beginning of the end of the Dem- ocratic party as now constituted: and as the Republican party rosa phoenix like from the ashes of the old Whig party under the reconstructive Influ- ence of Uranus-the planet which all ways signifies remarkable events of a revolutionary order--so will the Democratic party date its final reha- biltation from the crushing defeat which will be administered to it in the election of MT. Roosevelt in 1904 by an unprecedented majority"
 Now how did Julius guess that out three years in advance so correctly ct least the part referring to the crush :"g defeat of the Democrats and the unprecedented majority" of Mfr. Roosevelt? Looks. too. as if he was not far wrong regarding the rehabi1ia- ton Of the Democratic party for the air is full of that same now. What a mint of money that forecaster could have made if he had kept his fore cast to himself and formed big bett- ing pool. Perhaps he was a true sport and didn't feel that 1t would be fair to gamble on a sure thing.

Not since the stern English Barons assembled at Runnymede almost seven centuries ago to wrest from King John certain rights and privileges has there been seen in any monarchieal gov ernmsnt . more significant movement than that now going on in Russia. The meeting and deliberations of the Zemstvos may have no immediate ef- feet for good, but 1t will be strange if they have, not started q movement which will ultimately result in giving the people some measure of that free- dom without which there can bs no general content or prosperity.
 As is well known. the government of Russia is a monarchy of the most ab- solute nature. In theory the zemstvos are an elective body and, also in theory. they have some powers and privileges. but practically the csar and the nobles are without restraipt. The czar himself. and those to whom he delegates certain powers. are the gov- ernment and their power Is virtually supreme. The zemstyos are something in the nature of legislators or assem- blymen, but they are so surrounded and hedged, about by the absoiutism of the ruler that freedom of action or delib- eration Is little better than a name. That they have been allowed to meet at St Petersburg and to formulate and issue memorials is something of an ad- vance for Russia. but whether any, thing definite will come of 1t depends largely on the Emperor or Czar, lat last.
 If Russia now had a ruler of the right temper there never was an occa- sion more propltious for an advance movement than the present. It ought to be plain to those in power that pres ent conditions can not last forever The continued disturbances and dissat- isfactipn ought to convince the rulers that there is a seething volcano under them and that 1t can not be suppress ed forever. If the Czar and those close to him would sse and recognize the signs of the times, and would meet the zemstvoB in a spirit of coneiliation and concession. Russia might make. a wonderful advance in the way of con- stitutional government.
 The Russian people are not fitted or prepared for a republican form of gov ernment, and those who speak for the movement now going on very positive- ly announce that they are not advocat- ing such radical change. What they are hoping for and looking forward to is constitutional monarchy, some thing on the order of that of England. They want a government under which the people will have more liberty, more privileges. and, most important of all, more protection for person and property. The Russian people could accommodate themselves to such a form of government, and be contented under 1t, and they will never be con- tented unless they get something of the kind. If the present ruling pow CTS can not see 1t, others can, for be- fore many years there must be a change for the better or a revolution, and if that last comes. under compe- tent leaders. 1t Is doubtful if the world ever saw It's equal for desperation and bloody cruelty and excesses. It will be well If the change can be brought about psaceably, for 1t is bound to come in time and woe be to those who resist t.

My husband worries so, Doctor, you simply must give me something to key me up-something that will make mo bright and cheerful when he comes home at night.''
 Thousands of unfortunate women arg n just this position-women who are sapl1ly breaking down in body and whose mlnds are becoming dark and dull with euMertng and despair.

So much for the field of effort open to the n1Fts- ter mechanical minds of 2 superlative. of 100000 bales at an average of 150 pounds of seed cotton day per pick CT, means that for picking season of three months. consisting of twenty working days each, somewhat over l.

 Methods of automatically harvesting all other important crops have been provided, but the gathering of cotton presents unique diflculty. The ma tion" picking from the plant only such bolls as are ripe and open, and leaving all others for later attention. Constd- ering that the cotton factory has many nS ht9 almost seem to be endowed with req soning faculties, encourages an abtd- ing faith ip the ultimately birth of the cotton picking machine. It may be said that almost every known force. and mechanical principle has been tried, but it Is possible that a happy combination of some of these will one day be seen In every cotton field of the South.
 The wonders already performed by that unknown and perhaps unknoWable force-electricity. engenders the hope that 1t may be so harnessed as to se- lect the ripe bolls at the right time, However, whenever the practical ap- paratus is produced, that day will mean the everlasting supremacy of the American cotton grower, for he can then produce enough of the staple to supply the needs of every inhabitant of this planet, and keep pace with their increasing requirements even should they be trebled or quadrupled.
 Future Competition.
 Another phase of the situation as 1t will then exist should not be over looked. Every step which is taken ip the direction of making the growing. picking and preparation of cotton for the factory more mechanical and there fore more complex, will be a stride to- wards rendering nugatory the efforts of the European to compete with us. hampered as he will be with semi-bar- barous and altogether unintelligent la- bOrers.

COOsA RIVER VALLEY
Its Value to Commerce and What win Follow Whea Navigation ls Open.
 Rome. Ga. Nov. 23. 1904.

Rome, Ga.s Nov. 23, 1904. Editor The Advertiser:
 have read with great interest. your able editorial of November 20th, upon the importance to Montgomery of open ing the Coosa and Alabama Rivers, to navigation from Rome, Ga, to the Gulf. and. in this connection |. desire to say a word or two.
 nefits Montgomery may expect, from the opening of the COosa, in the manu- fracture, into finished products, of the many valuable hard woods growing along that stream, and further on you say; We have spoken of only one of roadway, but there are numerous others. and they will all help to build up Montgomery" It Is to these others that l here wish to call attention.
 The Valley of the cOOsa is the richest In the South in coal and iron, both red and brown Hemitite, 1t Is one of the only two localities in the United States where bauxite, the ore from which aluminium Is extracted, is found in conn merclal quantities, and is. perhaps, the richest single section in these minerals in the world. Besides the minerals named, the valley abounds in limestone, marble, fire and potters clays, and many minor minerals too numerous to mention here. These claims of the val- ley are borne out by reports of the
 
 geological surveys.
 Has 1t not occurred to Montgomery, that, with the Coosa opened LO naV4ga- ton, coal can be laid down upon her own wharves for less than S2.00 per ton that she can become a manufacturer of iron and its products? that her oiti- zens instead of paying $6 per ton for domestic coal, as they are doing today, can buy as good or better soal for less than S2 per ton? that she will be able to rent from the government at q nominal price, the thousands of horse- powers developed at the dams, which, electrically transmitted, will place her beyond competition fh the matter of cheap power7 And does Montgomery. and her sister cities along the Alabama River, realize that she and they hold the key to a business situation not surpassed in the world2 And that, if the improvement of the COOsa River is allowed to fall through or languish, she and they will be committing com mercial suicide?

FRIDAY. NOVEMBER ss, 1904.
CHANGE OF TERMS.

The following from The Buffalo News evidently expresses the latest DO. sition of its party on the tariff:
 Whatever of tariff revision may be thought advisable to make will be done by the friends of protection. but there is absolute freedom of debate with re- speet to 1t.
 The careful reader will notice an ap- parently slight but very material change of language since the election. A few weeks ago the persistent cry of the Republicans was that the tariff would be revised "by its friends" Now, according to The News, it is to be revised "by the friends of protec- ton" The tariff itself has many friends who are not advocates of it's discriminating protective features. On the other hand the friends of protec- ticn" may, we think. be safely set down as the friends and advocates of the kind of tariff under which trusts thrive and the favored few grow rich at the expense of the many. That is the kind of tariff that these friends of protection" favor, and the kind we may expect to see retained.
 It is true we continually see It stated that the President is in favor of real revision in the interest of the great body of the people. It As also true that we are told that Republicans like Babcock are very much encouF. aged and it is still further true that we are informed that the "stand-pat- ters" are discouraged. All this is of in- terest, but we are not yet ready to believe that the party in power will so change the tariff as to materially injure those who are now deliving most benefit from it.
