The very decisive character Of the
result of the national election is
shown by the fact that the Republican
candidates for president and vice
president have received a very much
greater plurality of the popular vote
than any other candidates have re-
ceived in any presidential election
in a quarter of century. with the
single exception of the election of
1904 when President Roosevelt receiv-
ed the enormous plurality of 2.541,
296 votes. And Taft will have a
greater plurality in the electoral
college than any other president has
ever received. except President Roose-
velt, whose electoral vote in 1904 was
336. Taft's plurality of the popular
vote is said to be approximately
100000 and it now appears that
his vote in the electoral college will
be 800. He carries the state of New
York by considerably greater
majority than was given to President
Roosevelt in 1904.
