THE RESULT.

At the hour at which this is writ
ten details are lacking but 1t is
known that Tuesdays election result
ed In a sweeping Republican victory
in the country at large. New York, a
pivotal state, regarded by many as
doubtful gave TAT over 100000. EARLY
returns indicate that Ohio and
Indiana also classed as doubt
full, have been won by safe plur-
alities, while Pennsylvania, reliably
Republican, increased it's lead to 3oo,-
600 for the national ticket. According
to present advices, Taft will have at
least 800 votes in the electoral col
lege, or sixty-seven more than are
necessary to elect. Chairman Hitch
cock claims he will have 325, or eigh-
ty-three more than necessary.
While the returns from many states
are yet incomplete. enough have been
received to show that the Republi'
cans will control the next House by
good working majority. The Demo
Gratis made especially strenuous efforts
to win the House, but in practically
every instance where hard fight was
made the Republicans were victorious
The defeat is the worst Mr.. Bryan
has vet sustained, and in all probabil
ity it eliminates him permanently as
presidential candidate. Thousands
of Democrats will find satisfaction ir
this fact and will not hesitate to sc
express themselves.
The result is vote of confidence II

sion for 1t to continue the good wori
of carrying its wise and practica
policies into effect.

PSYCHOLOGY OF woMEN,s DRESS

Prof. w. I. Thomas of the Univer-
sity of Chicago, continuing his series
of articles on woman in the Novem-
Der American Magazine, takes
somewhat radical stand on the subject
of dress. He asserts that the adj
vances which modern life has made
over savagery are represented at
some points by very thin line. Man
in the pursuit of business has tended
to give up the idea of bodily adorn-
ment and carries on the worlds in
dustries largely to supply women with
those personal accessories which they
used to charm the men. Nevertheless.
woman Is "only pawn in the indus
trial game played by man. and the
effect of this on the character of
woman SIS altogether bad Prof
Thomas says that "the role of hall
angel and half bird" is pretty one
If you can look at it that wav, but
ut denatures a woman makes her q
thing instead of person, fact Of
the environment and an object o.
mans manipulation instead of ar
agent for transforming the world. L
! leaves society shorthanded and the
struggle for life harder and uglier thar
it would be If woman operated in it a.
the substantial and superior creature
| which nature made her.

sus Bureau, before making its APP
praisal, ascertained the ratio between
the tax-list valuation and the real
true value of the real property ilN
each one of the counties and in all
of the principal cities of the United
States. No less than 100000 farms
were included in the taxable real prop
erty, for the farmer being in each
case his own appraiser; and all the
information collected In the last fifty
years shows that this return was on
the whole very exact and trustworthy
The value of railroads, street rail
ways, telegraphs and telephone sys-
TENS, Pullman and private cars, cleo
trio light and power stations, was
estimated upon the basis of the sell
ing price of bonds and stocks in the
year, 1904. In the case of live stock,
farm implements, manufacturing ma
chinery, ETC., the census figures were
obtained directly from the owners. The
manufacturing and mining products
on hand were estimated at one-hals
those produced during single year.
The total wealth of the nation may
easily be tested by statements con-
corning the number and wealth of our
millionaires, which appear from time
to time in the magazines and news
papers.
If the statements referred to are
trustworthy and the census has given
a correct estimate of wealth, then the
deductions usually made from such
statements are correct There is an
intense concentration of wealth in
the hands of a few. The millionaires
own nearly as much wealth as the
census shows to exist in the coun
| try. If, on the other hand, we start
with the value of farms and other
homes which are known to be owned
| by men of small possessions, the
savings-bank deposits, and Other
known possession of those of mod
crate means, and then add the Lowest
popular estimates of the possession
of our millionaires, we have an ag
gregate far in excess of the census ap
praisal of national wealth; and the
conclusion under such circumstances
! is irresistible, either that the censu:
estimates of national wealth are ride
ulously small or the popular estimate'
of the wealth of our millionaires are
i greatly exaggerated"
i Mr.. Powers finds no evidence tina
would Justify either statement tina
our national wealth is grossly under
stated or that our millionaires own S
large a share of that wealth as t
leave the great majority without prof.
: erty.

THE VALLEY or UNREQUITE.
One pale night, bereft of slumber.
Wandered l to dim valley.
Where the shadows without number,
Seemed like ghosts to round me
sally;
And a signing and a moaning
Reached my ears in ceaseless din
ming,
AS from tortured souls atoning
For their countless days of SHINING
In the valley ac I fingered,
And in deep reflection tarried,
Came a snow-white, gentle song-bird
BY some dread affliction harried.
1t alighted on my shoulder,
Where it chung and feebly struggled
And then soon becoming holder,
To my bosom softly snuggled.
Then l thought heard sobbing,
And a plaintive story uttered,
CAS- / felt its heart throbbing
And 1t gently, gently fluttereD;
Woe to me and woe forever,
For my sorrow knows no ending,
Him love but he loved never,
Woe to me my soul is rending.'
Then from out the gloom surround
ing,
Came wave of mournful echoes,
Came a chorus, family sounding,
All CRYING out their woes,
Woes from which they could no
sever,
Signing out never ending:
az love,-I love but am loved never
| Woe to me, my soul is rending. -
