The first intimatiOn OF a change in

busting Of messengers after The lead
ers and Democratic headquarters awal-
eued 10 the new tidings OF possible sue
cess.
At 10 o'clock this morning Chairman
Murray Fandiver, OF the Democratic
State committee, claimed Maryland for
Bryan by about 100 majority. He bases
the claim on the reports he is now receiv-
ing from the counties outside OF Balti-
more city. The Republicans still claim
Maryland for Taft, but give no late
figures.
The Eastern Shore counties also gave

Local policies and, incidentally. the

.GOHPERS' STRENGTH
NO LONGER POTENT
to Deliver Labor
Vote to Bryan May Cost
Him Office.
By JOHN SNURE.

Probably the most surprising feature
OF the election results is the almost
complete failure Of organized labor,
headed by President Samuel Gompers
Of the American Federation of Labor
10 deliver the g0OG=
All through the campaign, from the
time Mr. Bryan was nominated at Den
yer. and it was assured that Gompers
and the machinery of the American
Federation Of Labor would work for
the Nebraskan and against Taft. the
labor vote was the DOGGY that frighten-
cd most of the Republican politicians.
supreme efforts were PIT forth to
nullify the effects Of the stand taken
by Mr.. Gompers and his adherents.
President Roosevelt gave much atten-
tion to the labor vote. and Judge Taft
went TO great pains 10 explain his at
titude toward labor. and to placate the
vote OF that element. as far as possible,
without apologizing FOR his record while
on the bench
He Couldn't Deliver.
Il is now clearly seen that Mr.. Comp.
ers was utterly unable TO deliver the
labor vote" Even in the fight Of or
gauized labor against candidates for
Congress, regarded by labor as un-
friendly. little Roadway was made It
is apparent from the returns that labor
split badly, and that, to a great extent,
men in the ranks of labor voted along
normal party lines.
1t may be expected that as soon as
he becomes President. Mr. Taft will do
his utmost 10 get legislation modifying
the statutes regarding injunctions; but
II must not be forgotten that, regard
less Of the struggle against him, Speak
er Cannon comes back to the House
with his hands strongly upheld by the
DanVllle district, and by the country
generally. How much the Speaker will
De In a mood TO grant some OF the
things labor wants is a question though
he can hardly stand In the way of the
Republican platform.
AT any rate, the failure of President
Gompers 10 carry his fellow members
of the federation along with him is Ger
tam 10 increase the opposition to him
In the a. y. OF I. Already there IS
strong talk Of an effort T. defeat him
for re ELECTION as president OF that or
gauiZaJiOu.
Made Strong Appeal
It is, OF course true that much OF
the labor vote went TO Bryan through
the efforts of Mr.. Gompers and his ad-
hereuts, but the share OF il that did
was not large enough to accomplish re-
suits. Moreover. II is TO be remember
number of speeches I'm the campaign
and. on all hands, they were pro
nOuuced powerful appeals from his
viewpoint. In the opinion Of many poll
tiCians the failure 10 accomplish any
large results ia this contest, after the
work done by the Federation leaders.
viii be the end OF organized labor as a
large factor I'm politics.

SAME OLD MAJORITY
GIVEN IN VIRGINIA
Bryan Carries State by APP
proximately $4,000.
Loses in Cities.

RICHMOND, Va, Nov. with the
State vote about three-fOuTths counted,
Bryan's majority is Indicated at $1,000,
slightly less than his best former ma
Jority in this State. Republicans failed
IN their expectations of obtaining sui,
hcient support from conservative Demo-
Gratis in Richmond and other CONNER
cial centers to reduce the customary
Democratic majority. though they made
q gain of more than 600 in Richmond.
Complete returns from Alexandria
county give Bryan 345, and Taft I65,
while Carlin received 45l votes and
Gregg 103. The city of Alexandria rolled
up its customary Democratic majority,
giving Bryan PIG. and Taft 247. Carlin
received ], S92 votes and gregg Y in the
city.
Majorities Reduced.
Winchester. Charlottesville. and Har-
risonburg gave Bryan reduced MAORI
ties; but In Fredericksburg, Roanoke,
Lynchburg, DanviIle, and Warrenton
Bryan held the normal democratic vote
Richmond gave Bryan, 4123. and Taft.
1,l4o- buckingham and CuIpeper county
gave Bryan the largest Democratic ma
,1orities in years. Albemarle county, in
which President Roosevelt has d COuI-
81 HA1tHr save bIl an LOO Votes less
than II gave Parker In 1904.
The Democrats carried nine out OF
ten Congress districts, Representative
q. Bascom Slemp. in the Ninth dis
tTict, alone defeating his Democratic
opponent, J. CIOyd Byars. Slemp car
ued Smythe county by 449; Pulaski
county, lO0i Wythe county, 900; Bland
county. "a: Washington county 10;
Russell county, 500; Wise county, 500.
His home town, Big Stone Gap. gave
Slemp S1I majority. Bristol gave ByaTs
a majority OF 81. Slemp's majority IL
is estimated viii be about 400.
Saunders Leads.
In the Fifth district, Edward W.
Saunders. who was elected to the Six
Iieth Congress by the narrow majority
OF 22Z has defeated John NJ. Parsons,
Republican, by approximately 1900
votes, as partial returns indicate.
Saunders shows gains in nearly all pre-
ClnCts so far reported.
Returns this morning indicate that
Representative Cariin viii defeat j. W.
Gregg, Of LoUdOuu county, by an in
creased majority over the last election
when he carried the district by more
than $3.50 majority.
Representative Maynard. Lamb, Las
sitter, Hay, Glass. and Flood are all sure
or reelection at approximately former
majorities.

While it will be some days before the
exact vote cast for Hisgen viii be ac-
curately Obtainable. st. is clear that the
Independence League vote was not par
ticularIy heavy. It does not indicate
that the league has succeeded in get
ting enough votes to force the Demo-
cratic party TO come TO Hearst I'm the
campaign of 1872
It has been the ambition OF the
Hearst forces to obtain enough votes
in this campaign to enable f 10 show
that the combined strength Of the Bryan
vote and the Hisgen vote would have
meant defeat of Taft, This showing.
from the present partial returns, has
nowhere near been made. 1t may be
doubted whether the Hearst leaders will
be eble TO set a formidable campaign
for 1912 under way. on the strength OF
the showing made yesterday
Clubs Are Organized.
Dispatches from San Francisco. pre-
senting the Independence League view

fair figures and that the leaders think
the new party Is established on a sat
isfaCtoTy basis and that creditabIe legis-
lative fights were made. 1t is also said
that clubs have been organized in the
three largest counties Of the State for
the purpose Of carrying the principles
Of the Independence League into poll
tics.
But while the vote for Hisgen is not
heavy, there can be 70 doubt that Will

The speech of William Jennings
B ryan, in accepting the Democratic
nomination for President, must be a
deep disappointment for those OF his
enemies who expected radical utter
ances, or declarations not embo1ied
in the Denver platform. He most ef-
fec;ively confounds his critics, and
satisfies the '.sase and sane eieinent
of the party in the second paragraph
of his address, in when he declares
that he endol ses the platform, IN
whole aud IN part aud adds that "a
platform is binding as TO what itoInits
as well as to what ii contains. There
will be no misunderstanding about the
Significance Of this phrase. 1t means
that Mr.. Bryan, II elected President,
will carry out only such policies and
such reforms as are advocated In his
party platform specifically, outlines
all the remedial legislation which I'VE
can hope to secure during the next
four years"
Mr.. Bryan has personal views upon
some questions not referred to IN the
platform, which are not acceptediby
some leaders OF the party. rhe Denver
convention decided that these qnes-
items are not issues, aud mir. Bryan
coacurs in that opinion. He makes it
plain that the voters are the sovereign 3
the officials are the servants, and.ithat
the president is not justified in usin 9
the authority vested In him 10 urg q
personal views (which nave n it bee n
submitted 10 the voters for their aL-
prevail.
Mr.. Taft felt it necessary, as mat
ter Of party expediency, to amend the
platform upon which he was nomin-
ated, Dy expressing personal inciina-
tioasp favorable TO certain reforms
winch his convention deliberately re-
fused TO approve. No such situation
confronted Mr.. Bryan, who accepts
every declaration ia the Democratic
platform, and expressly states that he
I
will be bound by it, ssas 10 what it
omits, as well as 10 what 1t contains.
He will advocate no other policies be-
cause the platform Outlines all The
renedisn legislation the party can
hope to secure during his sdministrs-
tratioD.
The democratic declarations are aeii-
nite, positive and impossible to mis-
understand; ans the democratic Jean
dIdate declares that he will be bound
by them, and that they embrace q
firm position upon every question at
issue. On the other hand, the Republic
can platform is vi satisfactory 10 the
Republican candidate, who Is placed
in lie awkward attitude of advocating
reforms which his party disapproves,
