ator II. c. Lodge OF Massachusetts,
dated October 26. 1903. In this letter
the president said:
Dear Cabot: Prophecy Is very bad

must send you line to say that L
think the situation is steadily improv-
ing in Ohio. East of the Alleghenies
believe we shall have a larger popular
plurality than four years ago; in other
words, that Taft's plurality will be
greater than mine, and think that our
electoral vote will be larger easx or

cause I think the chances slightly favor
us in Maryland. although this repre-
sents a good deal OF guesswork-
West OF the Alleghenies L think we

jorities as compared with 1904, but
do not anticipate the loss Of any cleo

Nevada, and am inclined TO think that
we have an even chance OF carrying

Over 1000 kilograms and many let

of the election poured into the White
House today for President Roosevelt
He was busy all day reading these mes
sages and debating replies TO them. No
callers were received.
The president said there seemed TO
be some doubt through the country re-
garding the meaning of the word "fraz-
zle,' which he used recently in refer
ring to the campaign. by saying We've
got them beaten to a FRAGILE" He ex-
nj a N Cd that n word in

DIRECT PRIMARY
GETS BIG MAJORITY
Vote Against Peoples Amend
ment Is Insignificant and
Measure Carries Z to |

The demand for direct primary legis-
lation was given concrete and impress
sive form by the voters of California
at the polls on Tuesday. Assembly con-
stitutional amendment No. 3 was rati-
hed by the people OF California by
tremendous majority.
When the completed returns for the
state are compiled and officially au
anentfcated the records will show that
no proposition was eSer so emphatically
Endorsed by the people OF California as
was the direct primary amendment.
The vote against the peoples amend.
ment was Insignificant The fairly
complete unofhciai returns for the state
indicate that assembly constitutional
amendment No. 3 was ratified by vote
of TO I. In san Francisco, where
the banefuI influences of the nominal
ing convention have been brought home
10 the people with sickening force, the
amendment was ratified by q vote Of
nearly 10 to ].
Assembly constitutional amendment
No not only cleared the way for di-
rect primary legislation, but its provi-
sions were mandatory. BY an over
Ehelming vote the people of California
have written the direct primary sys-
TEN into their organic law and have
pFQAlQGQ mat luc lSid Alic SHdll en-
act q direct primary law.
Machine politicians throughout the
state endeavored 10 discourage the
popular vote for the amendment. They
did not hope to encompass its defeat
but they did hope that small afiirma-
tive vote Offset IN some degree by
the small push" vote augmented by
The few voters who were misied as
70 the purposes of the amendment
could be construed by the next legisla-
ture as indicating a lack of public in
terest in the reform that had been

weight Of approximately 10000 votes
on TUESDAY. The next legislature will
be unable TO find in the vote on assem-
big amendment No any excuse for
failure 10 redeem their promises TO the
people in full
The vote for the direct primary
amendment in San Francisco was char
scteristic OF the vote throughout the
state. San Francisco cast 32.sss votes
for the amendment, 1887 against It.
Substantially the same relative proper
fions were maintained in Los Angeles
and Alameda ounties. In the cities
snd the country districts the men of
California voted against the machines
and boSses-voted for themselves and
Tor their political freedom. They re-
corded their viii in a manner so en-
x,hatfc that the veriest machine legis-
iator will hesitate about attempting to
fhwart that viii.

= Constitution on the cleo
tion, Clark Howell, the demo-

"In Tuesdays election the south
ern states began the writing of
their national history of independ-
ence. The result means that the
time has passed when n resident
of one of these states must buy
his social security, ofteu, perhaps,
at the price of his political con-
vfcfions. Many businessmen, the
south over, most of them adhcr-
ents of the democracy all their
lives, dared to support hopefully
and openly the candidates Of the
republican party because their
convictions led them that way.
The Constitution is indorsIng their
action only to the extent of say
ing that they were right in giving
material expression TO their true
convictions. The southern vote,
which wrenched itself AWAY from
sectional political tradition, and IL
was a large one, was significant

up totals against the project that
showed determined sentiment against
any change. Sacramento voted 5,29S
against and PSI for the proposal. San
Joaquin was loyal to Sacramento and
polled 1881 against the measure and
only 379 in favor of it. Napa county
was also loyal to the city on the river
and showed majority of 1000 in fa-
vor of riveting the classic structure

STOCK MARKET ACTIVE
Union Pacific Is Leader in the
Upward Movement
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK. Nov, 4. = While the
stock market has been diseounting the
election of Taft for more than two
weeks. it nevertheless fulfilled the pre-
diction of the traders that it would
advance from one to five points after
the result was known. Most of the
advances were confined TO less than
two points. There were some notable
exceptions. Among the highly specu-
Iative issues Union Pacific was the
leader in activity and strength. II
sold up to 177A on transactions Of
over $4,000 shares and scored a net
gain of 2% per cent.
Many new high records for the year
were made in today's market. United

highest price on record, touching
114A.
The general opinion is that business
will revive gradually. 1t is believed
that thousands of contracts will now
be carried out in every section OF the
country, particularly in the east, where
the manufacturing industry is so
largely centered.

Unfamiliar Animals That Haunt This

The mightiest forest Of which the
human race has any knowledge today
Is that of the Kongo. 1t is q region
Of impenetrable mystery concerning
which accounts have been so strange
that until the past few years they
have been deemed Incredible. But re-
cent discovery has transformed scien.
tific incredulity into a measure Of be-
lief. Thus on the basis Of Sir Harry
Johnston's explorations of Uganda a
giant ape larger than the gorilla is a
denizen of this tremendous forest re-
gion. There, too, are animals OF a
quite unfamiliar kind, notably the
okapi. The forest seems to be the re-
sort Of the five horned giraffe, the
tallest mammal In the world. The
hugest elephants, bearing tremendous
tusks, are there. The largest fish
found in all Africa haunt the streams
meandering through the recesses Of
this forest. Lions seem not to pene'
trate into the thick growth Of the jun
gle thereabouts. The forest leopards
are arboreal, catching monkeys for
their food.

State VS.. Nation

The Supreme Court on Monday
decided against the railroad regula
tion laws of two States-North
Carolina ard Minnesota.
The Supreme Court says:
1.-THE question of the sufficiepcV
of the rates to enable the company
to obtain some return to its stock
holders for their investment has
for many wears been held to be one
for the courts to decide, as it would
be a violation Of the Constitution
of the United States to fix rates so
low as to be confscatorY if enforc,
ed.
"The laws providing for trans.
portation of passengers and freight
in the two cases under considera-
ton have been held by the courts
below to be so low as to be subst' n
TALLY confscatory, and should
therefore not be enforced until at
ter further trials. The courts had
jurisdiction to make such an order"
Justice Harlan dissented.
