Another force which aidei--while 1t

1:FspAY's ELECTION.

Tuesday's election are complete from
few states. enough
has been learned, however, to estab-
lish the fact that MIR. Taft has been
elected President Of the United
States by a very large majority IN
the electoral college. How the popu-
lar vote Of the nation has been d.
yided between the various presiden-
tial candidates is as yet matter OF
uncertainty. But It is altogether
likely that Mr.. Taft has received,
sabstantial plurality. II not q MAORI
y. Of all the votes cast. Until more
lixht is shed upon this question. 1t
vim be impossible to form any deb
mite conclusion concerning the mo-
dives which impellei citizens of the
various localities to flock to the sup
port of the Republican standard.
But no risk Of error is taken in
assuming that Mr.. Bryan's defeat
primarily was due to widespread
conyictisn that 1t would be unwise

The Press believed. and still be-

wisdom of Republican policies, but. On
he contrary, that the era Of panic
came - an Inevitable sequence 10
the adoption and pursuance o. these
policies by the dominant political
psrty. 1t is quite probable that a
majority Of the people hold to the
same belief But a great many per
