Every indication points 10 the election
of Roosevelt and Fairbanks. and already
there is rejoicing in Washington at the
prospect of securing for the President
the greatest vote cast for a Republican
presidential candidate in many years. Ii
the voters will take the trouble to cast
their ballots according to their convic-
tons, say the campaign managers, tleJ
will give a tremendous impetus to the
cause of good government and honest.
fearless administration by rolling up for
Theodore Roosevelt a monster majority.
Every man who comes to Washington
and who pretends to be posted on the
political conditions in his state tells the
same story, a tale of the hearty approval
of the young President by men of both
parties, of the prosperous conditions
which sober men would dread to see
wrecked by the laundering methods OF
the democracy, and of the determination
of the young men of the country to cast
their first ballot for the man who never
fails to recognize ability on young
shoulders or properly to reward it.

An interesting summary of the polir-
ical conditions has reached Chairman.
Cowherd of the Democratic Congress
sional committee, sent to him by the Par
ker managers in New York Briefly, it
is as follows: The Democrats nave the
solid south" including Missouri anc
Kentucky, a total or ISL eiec:ora: vo:es.
The Republicans have what may oe
called 1.-THE solid north including Con
n~ecticut and Wisconsin, which are con
coded to them, a total of 224 votes. There
remain. as debatabie ground, the follow
ing states. their votes being gwen: Col
orado, s; Delaware, 3: Idaho. 8: Indiana.
40: Maryland, s; Montana, 3; Nevada, 8;
New Jersey, II; New York, y; Utah, s,
and West Virginia, Z: a total of 101 cleo
toral votes in debatable territory. Just
how the Democratic managers can figure
out a victory from these ilgures is diff
cult to understand. Taxing their own
figures, as above, they must secure s.
votes in the debatable territory to give
their candidate the 239 votes necessary 10
elect. On the other hand, the Repuo.-
cans need secure but is out of the en:ire
10l votes to insure the cleo ion of Rnose-
welt and Fairbanks. Either Ind ana or
New York WOULD throw the victory to
the Republicans; New Jersey and Dela-
ware would do II, without New YORK or
indiana, and so wou.u any other COM
bination which would give the RepublI-
cans Is out of the 1u1 votes enumerated.
In the light of these figures IL is not sur
prising that .-e Republicans are conf
dent Of success and are now turning their
attention to bringing out a full vote, a
vote which will prove the heartiness with
which the American people endorse the
administration of Theodore Roosevelt.
