On the face of the returns received
tv the Graphic last night it looks as
though Theodore Roosevelt, the Re.
publican nominee for president of the
United States, had swept the country
carrying all the strong Republican
states and practically all of the doubt
ful ones as well. The solid south
is about the only section that stood
by Parker and Davis. but Democrats
in all sections have given up
the fight. The returns from New
York indicate that this state is sill
in doubt and the Democrats may yet
carry the state. Last night about
1G O'Clock it was flashed over the

this was read even the loyal Demo

TIRED OE It's LOAD.

1t is now said the solid south is
growing tired of being the beast oil
burden for the Democratic party anu
that a movement will soon be inaugu'
rated looking TO its political independ
ence. Great changes are likely TO
lake place IN the south before an
other national election. We believe
it will be President Roosevelt's pol
ICY during ,he next fouI years TO ere
ate a better sentiment among the pco-
pie of that region regarding the ace
question. II the south would look
more to its material development aud
advancement instead of standing like
a mad bull in the path of progress
much OF her cause for suspicion and
prejudice would be gradually removed.
If it were not for the fear of negro
domination the solidlty of the south,
politically speaking. would have been
broken long ago. If the south would
bestir herself in an industrial way and
invite capital and men of the north
10 go there and develop her many re-
sources, instead of living in and
brooding over the past, the rae ques-
ton would in time be forgotten and
the negro placed in such a minority
that fear Of his dominating by m
ical strength be entirely removed. The
younger men of the south must and
will come 10 see this question in its
right light. There can be no doubt
ABOUT President Rooseyelt's desire
and ambition to bring about a bet
ter feeling and a broader view of the
situation. He will stand for manhood
wherever found, but will not ask the
south TO submit to conditions that he
himself could not endure. The prcst-
lent Is well aware Of the un~friendly
feeling entertained for himself in the
south but il would not be surprising
% see this vanish entirely before he
retires to private life, and the time
may yet come when the people OF
the south will regard him as one of
The greatest and best presidents the
nation has ever mad.
