ELECTION RESULTS.

was great decrease in the vote cast
than the vote in 1900. On the unoffic-
ial returns Roosevelt has plurality
Of 1876 in the State, which may be
changed by the official count. baltl-
more city gives a plurality OF 4ls for
Parker.
The Maryland Congressional defe-
CATION is evenly divided, the Demo
Gratis electing Thomas A. Smith IN
the First district by 404 majori'y
over Congressman Jackson. In the
Second Congressman Talbot, Demo
crat, has a majority Of 242s over Gar
rett. In the Fourth John Gill, Dem
ocrot, received a majority OF 1,7O5
over Smith, Republican. The Kepub-
licans reflect Congressman Wachter,
Mudd and Pearre by the respective
pluralities of 2,l65, 3,lss and 3,s47.
Roosevelt has received the UMPIRE
cedented plurality Of ,S46,64l in The
popular vote, according to the esti
mates, which is nearly 1000 900 more
than McKinley's 1900 plurality OF
SCI ,527-at that time record break
err. These figures may be considera-
bly reduced when the official count is
made. The plurality of 1876, Az for
Roosevelt in Pennsylvania alone is
almost as much as Parker's total plur-
alities in the States he carried, 497,-
900. Bryan's aggregate pluralities
in 1900 were 590,927.
OF the total electoral vote Of 476,
Roosevelt received 243 and Parker
1873, Republican majority of 2lo,
which may be compared With Mckin-
ley's majority of 1877 in 1900.
J Roosevelt carried all the States
which Mckinley won in 1900
and in addition Missouri; Colorado,
Idaho, Montana and Nevada. which
Bryan carried in that year.
The Republicans will have major
ity of "a in the next House of Repre-
sentativts. The Democrats will have
JAG members of that body, the Repub-
licans 24O. The Republicans will
probably gain one United States Sen
ator from Missouri, increasing their
majority in the Senate to So.
Demo Gratis and Republicans both
claim the Governorship OF West Vir-
ginia. Though Roosevelt's plurality
is probably 10000, Dawson, the Re
publican candidate for Governor, was
scratched so extensively that the re-
turns so far received lead Democrats
to believe that Cornwell is elected
Governor. The Republicans elected
all Five Congressman.
Late returns from Missouri indicate
that Roosevelt has carried the State
by about 10000 and that Joseph W.
Folk, Democrat, is elected Governor
by about 5000. 1t is likely that the
next Legislature which will chose q
successor to Senator Cockrell, will b.
Republican by plurality of 2 votes.
Both parties claim to have carried
Colorado on the State ticket, but Iva
Adams, Democrat, is leading. Roose
velt's plurality is about Is 900.
Governor La Toilette carried Wis
consin by $4,000, and says he controls
the Legislature. Babcock's majority
is only 2S4.
AS interesting to the voter as the
figures were statements issued by
Judge Parker and Mr.. Bryan. Judge

Deeply as | regretted leaving the
bench at the time of it, in the presence
Overwhelming defeat, l do not la
ment it. / shall never seek nomina
ton for public office, but l shall to the
best Of my ability, serve the party
that has honored me, and through the
party serve the country. The party
has in the near future great mission.
Before long tie people will realize that
the fairfield trusts and illegal coml'i-
nations are absorbing the wealth Of
the nation
In his statement Mr.. Bryan said.
referring to Judge Parker:
He did as we'll as he could una
the circumstances; he was the victim
of unfavorab cond tins ard OF N s
ia ken party policy. The result was
due to the fact that the Democrat
lie party attempted to be conservative
in the presence of conditions that de-
manGed radical action"
In Massachusetts the plurality Of
William L. Douglass, D mocra' tor
Governor is 1910. though tie State

ticket.
