ahead os the Democratic state ticket.
Taft carries the state by about 1850.
The Bryan vote shows large gains in
many of the counties over that of Parker
four years ago. but the Democratic cleo
toral candidates carry only one county in
the state-Washington. In several coun-
ties the Taft electors led by only few
votes. Debs will receive close to 5000
votes in the state, about the same num-
Der he received four years ago. Hisgen
receives less than 100 votes in the entire
state.
The American" vote throughout the
state shows a falling off from that re-
ceived four years ago. In Summit coun-
ty. where a ticket was in the field there
were 100 fewer votes cast for the Amer
leans than were cast two years ago. In
TOOele county. with a judicial ticket in
the field. the vote was only about thirty
five, while it was siXty-three two years
ago.
The returns canvassed are sufficient to
show that all three of the proposed con-
sttutional amendments have been de-
feated by heavy majorities. The first
amendment received the most votes. car
ryins several counties. The second amend
ment was the second in favor, while the
vote against the third was so strong that
there can be no doubt about the sentiment
of the people being against giving the
legislature the power to create new coun-
ties.

fact that there are so many voting dis

of the returns is proceeding slowly and

other returns on Friday.
Some few errors of addition have been
discovered by the board in some counties.
and in some il has been discovered that
the vote on some of the state officers must
have been incorrect. For instance, in Sum-
nit county, for Bryan elector James An

a few members of the legislature while
in Columbus. This afternoon both ad-
dressed a gathering of 100 wool growers
and others interested in the wool bust
ness and DO IN took an atatitude against
revision of the tariff on that subject
Senator Foraker said:
Il don't know that ! will have the
privilege of assisting in any tariff legis-
lation. but if l do l shall bend every eff
fort to the cause of protecting home in
dustries and making America independ-
ent of every other nation on the globe
1 do not believe that any proposed tar
iff commission could do any better in
providing protection for American in
dustries than has been done by the
Dingley law, which has proved salts
factory TO every one who is interested
in tariff"
Senator Dick said:
The Dingley tariff bill. in my opin-
ion, is better than any future congress
can make. The prosperity under it is a
testimonial which cannot be denied and
therefore stands as an Endorsement. I
would feel better if we were talking
about readustment of the tariff in
stead Of revision. 1 am satisfied to let
