dozen years. swinging from one party
TO the other. Mckinley carried II IN
1896 and 1900, and IN 1904 the division
was SO close that nobody knew who
had the state until the official count
was made. Then Il was found that
out Of total OF 224 600 Parker beat
Roosevelt by only 81 votes. These
states, holding their elections so close
To the big national canvass, VIII show
the direction and the force OF the par
tisan currents. When the Republicans
carried Maryland and Kentucky for
governor in 1895 the country saw that
the drift was decidedly in favor Of
the Republicans for the big canvass II
months later. When Roswell =. Flower
carried New York for governor In 1891
by a $4,000 margin. and Horace Boies
carried Iowa, these were among the
portents OF the DemOCra tic landslide I'm
1892, which placed Cleveland I'm the
presidency. FOraker's defeat az the
polls for governor OF Ohio In 1888 by
George Hoadly was one Of the indica-
lions OF that swing OF the country away
from the Republicans which was To

Animal History There are many points
Resembling Of likeness between a
Human History world view of animal
history and OF human
history. During the long ages preced-
ing our own tho continents for certain
periods were like vast islands entire
~ isolated from neighboring conu-
neuts BY the seas. This was the con-
ditlon Of Africa i'm the period unearth-
ed by recent explorations. These long
cr or shorter isolatiOns explain the
diversity OF mammalian life,
because each grant land mass became
a separate breeding place under diff
ferent conditions. and whenever the
land rose from the sea long enough to
form connecting bridges, such as those
across the Mediterranean. or along the
Arctic seas. or across the lsthmus or
Panama. the animals gradually extend
ed their ranges from continent 70 con-
tinent exactly after the manner Of the
prehistoric and historic races OF men.
Thus were initiated vast inteychanges,
struggles and competitions. which have
worked quite as profound influence
upon the mast ana present history OF
animal life as the interchanges Of
