This is the final forecast by the
New York Herald of the election of
1908. There have been few changes
in the outlook since the publication
Of the forecast of last Sunday, when
the Herald's electoral table gave Taft
28O votes; Bryan 1856; doubtful, with
Republican leanings. 26; doubtful.
with Democratic leanings, 81.
,Basing the forecast Of today still
on surface indications and on reports
made by disnterested correspondents
in various doubtful States, the Herald
gives Mr.. Taft 3O6 electoral votes and
Mr.. BRYAN III. The States changed
from the table Of last Sunday are SIX.
No State that Mr.. Taft seemed then
to have with reasonable surety has
been lost to him during the last week

BRYAN was credited with last week

ISSUED MANDAMUS
AGAINST BOARD.
Case of DR.. Mauldin Decided by Su-
preme Court.

The State.
In the case Of the State ex rel John
McH. Mauldin, petitioner, against O.
A. Matthews ct al, respondents, the
supreme court has granted the writ of
mandamus prayed for, and Mr.. Maui
din will have the right to secure Ii
cense from the pharmaceutical board
Of South Carolina. The case was re-
Gently argued before the court and
the decision is written by Associate
Justice Woods.
The case involves the powers Of the
board of pharmacy, it being claimed
that Mr.. Mauldin, from Greenville, at
the proper time and place, applied to
the board for license and gave them
satisfactory proof Of his being reg
ular graduate Of the Maryland Col-
lege Of Pharmacy, and although not
required to do 50 by law. he offered
to submit to the examination to
which other applicants, not graduates
in pharmacy, were subjected.
The board refused to examine him
and also refused to grant him the de-
sired license.
Mauldin, who was represented by
Messrs. W. c. Benet and Oscar K.
Mauldin Of Greenville, applied to
Chief Justice Pope for mandar:as
and the case came on to be heard be-
fore the supreme court on the order
of the chief justice to the board to
show cause why the petition should
not be granted. Mauldin claimed
that he had fully complied with all
the requirements Of the statute. which
reads: "No examination shall be re-
ouired in case the applicant is re-
gular graduate in pharmacy from any
reputable college; but such applicant
shall be entitled to license upon
furnishing evidence Of his graduation

Mauldin also went further and OF
fered to stand the examination.

Pharmacy reputable college?
The board contended that in refus.
ing to issue a license to the petitioner
they were acting in judicial and not
in a ministerial manner and that in so
doing they could not be compelled by
ma0damus.
The board bases it's refusal to issue
the license on the ground that the
petitioner failed to produce proof of
having served not less than four years
with druggist or apothecary and al
so that the Maryland College Of
Pharmacy is not, in their opinion a
reputable college.
The decision Of the court is contrary
to the position taken by the board
and Mauldin is now entitled to his IL
cense on the payment of the fee OF

week classed as doubtful, with Re
publican tendencies, are now credited
to Mr.. Taft by the correspondents
of the Herald. The two States Of
Nebraska and Kentucky, which were
classed as doubtful, with Democratic
inelinations, are now given to Mr.
Bryan.
Thus during the week the net ap-
parent gain Of the Republican candi-
date has been twenty-six electoral
votes, while the net apparent gain OF
the Democratic candidate has been
twenty-one.
All observers agree that Mr.. Bryan
did not add to his electoral strength
BY his last journey to the East. He
utterly failed to shake the electoral
vote of New York from its Republi-
can moorings, and, indeed, during his
presence in the Empire State the be-
lief was intensified that there is a
working agreement between large
number of Democrats and Republl-
cans to throw the State to Taft and
Chanler. It yet remains to be seen,
however, whether the peculiar an
nouneement by John D. Rockefeller
that he would support Taft can be
turned by the Democrats into an ar
gument which may swing some close
States back to Bryan.
The Democratic eampaigners are
making use Of the incident with all
the avidity with which last card is
seized upon in the closing hours Of
the campaign. So far as the New
York governorsbip is concerned Mr..
Hughes has a small lead. The tide
seems to continue to run in his favor,
but the contest is so close that at the
last moment something might develop
which would change the conditions.

public which the world has ever SEEN
Its domains stretch across the contln-
ent from one to the other of the two
greatest oceans, and it exercises do
minion alike in the arctic and troplc
realms. The growth in wealth aud
population has surpassed even the
growth in territory. Nowhere else III
the world is the average Of indiT- -du-
al comfort and material well-being as
high as in our fortunate land.
"For the very reason that in ma
terial well-being we have thus
abounded we owe it to the Almighty
to show equal progress in moral and
spiritual things. With a nation, as
with the individuals who make up i
nation, material well-being is an in
dispensable foundation. But the
foundation avails nothing by itself.
That life is wasted, and worse than
wasted, which is spent in piling, heap
upon heap, those things which minis
ter merely to the pleasure of the
body and to the power that rests OIL
1y on wealth. Upon material we'll
being as foundation must be raised
the structure of the lofty life Of
the spirit if this nation IS properly to
fulfil its great mission and to ac-
eomp1ish all that We so ardently hope
and desire. The things of the body
are good; the things Of the intellect
better; but best of all are the things
Of the soul; for, in the nation, as in
the Individual, in the long run it is
character that counts. Let US, there
fore, as a people set our faces resoIu-
tely against evil, and with broad char
ity, with kindliness and good will to-
ward all men, but with unflinching
determination to smile down wrong,
strive with all the strength that is
given us for righteousness III publc
and in private life.
"Now, therefore, 7, Theodore
Roosevelt. president of the United
States, do set apart Thursday, the
26th day Of November, as day Of
general thanksgiving and prayer, an |
on that day I recommend that the
people shall cease from their daily

Widows Pensions.

By the passage of the act ot
April 10, 1908, Congress has made
some very material changes in the
laws relating to wIdo VS. pensions g.
All widows who are now pen.
stoned at.the rate of IS per month
will be raised to $12 per month by
the provisions of this act, and no
application will be necessary to
avail them themselves of this in
crease but at the next quarterly
payment the voucher will be for
warded for the same, and the al
lowance of this increased rate will
date from April 10, 1908.
All widows who were barred
from pension by the income clause
Under the Act of June 81, 1890,
will be eligible to pension under
this act, and will be required to
make application for the same on
a form to be obtained from the
Commissioner of Pensions, and the
allowance will be dated from the
filing of the application at the
Bureau of Pensions.
This affords the necessary relief
to widows whose claims were re.
jected upon the ground that their
income from all sources exceeded
$3.50 per annum, but under this
clause the soldier must have
served ninety days or more in the
civil war, been honorably dis
charged therefrom and his mar
riage to the widow must have been
prior to June 81, 1890.

the end which she felt could not
be far off. H,,r christian life had
been one of quiet trust and conf.
dence that brought to her the
abiding comforter. She wanted
to be sure that no duty or privi-
lege was neglected. Two years

prayer brought the full assurance
to her heart. A few hours before
the end came the verses of script
ure and prayer brought forth the
response from her expressive face
and lips that all was we'll. And
