The total vote shows falling off
of 215. Parker's loss is 81, 249, of which
215 may be regarded as "stay-at-
homes" The remaining 35,034 appar-
emily was divided up between De5s
and Roosevelt in about the ration of
to 2. In other words, 21,155 demo-
Gratis who voted for Bryan in 1900
voted for Debs this year; and 14,004
Bryan democrats voted directly for
Roosevelt as the best method of killing
off the 'sane and safe" candidate for
Morgan AMI Belmont.
General Weaver polled 5000 votes
in 1892, but the fusion of 1896 absorbed
them into the democratic party The
Watson vote of $50 Gan excellent show
ing under the circumstances did not
come from the democratic ranks, but
can easily be accounted for in the read
justment of the minor parties, mas
much as the prohibition party lost 354
and the socialist labor. 81.
It will be remembered that no effort
was made to put up Watson electors in
Wisconsin until the last moment. Rob-
ert Schilling, the old-time populist
leader of that state, insisted that moth
ing should be done to prevent the So
cialists from making the best showing
they could, and he favored abandoning
| the state to them this year, believing
the peoples party could be reorgan-
lied later with better effect. He was
doubtless correct in this view-but, OF
course. the national committee could
not we'll abandon any state without
making an effort. Considering that nc
campaign whatever was made in Wis
consin, the $50 votes for Watson there
indicates that populism is not dead

The vote in Texas this year is sur
prise to the Oldest inhabitant. although
those who keep close watch CT political
developments knew long ago that the
poll tax amendment would result in
cutting down the number Of votes cast.
The press dispatches do not give the
Debs vote or that OF Cosrigal, but the
comparison of 1900 with 1904 on the
four leading candidates shows that the
total vote fell off "A per cent. The pro-
hibitionists gained 3S per cent, but the
other parties lost as follows: Demo-
cratic, 81; republican, 81; populist. 81

years is remarkable Bryan carried

Roosevelt gets it by 1,145. Parker's

The vote is reported as fol-

: Texas in 1900 gave Wharton Barker
about 40 per cent of all the votes cast
for him; this year it seems that the
vote of the Lone Star state will not

of those cost for Watson. Just who,
if anyone, is principally to blame for
this fall down, is not clear. The poll
tax amendment tended to cut down the
total vote--,but it Kurt the populiSts

The Earth's Safest Places.
n the Chicago Inter-Ocean

The Scientific American recently called
attention to the odd fact that the man
who rides a few score feet In a New York
city elevator runs a greater risk of injury
and death than the man who travels from
New York to Chicago and back on the
fastest trains. No fewer than thirty per-
ty persons were killed and MANY more
hurt In New York elevator accidents in
the first nine months of this year. No
such proportion of those who Travelled ON
the fast passenger trains between the two
cities were even hurt.
Yet the average man buys an accident
insurance ticket whenever he starts on a
railway journey of any length, and never
thinks of such precautions before entering
ever a notable railway accident occurs he
talks for days about the great loss of life.
But he never thinks of the proportionately
greater loss of life every day from acct
dents that befall men at home in their own
houses The returned missionary who pub
licly complained the other day that after
living entirely unhurt for four years among
the widest savages of Africa, he had no
sooner returned to civilization than he met
with a railway accident that kept him In
hospital for six months, curiously illustrat-
ed the habit of the human mind to dwell
upon remote dangers and ignore those near.
Yet the fact Is indisputable-the accident
insurance companies have proved 1t to their
most dangerous places a man can be is in
his own home, whereas one of the safest
is In a hrst-class railway train at full
speed, while the very safest place on earth
Is aboard q first-class steamship in the
middle of the Atlantic.
