THE REAL CoNsUME

It Is shown 10y tn" census that the
citizens who neither own factories
nor work in them outnumbcr those
who do by some millions. The per
sonal cOncernm"nt of these Ameri-
cans is not with factory profits or
factory wages, but with the prices
Of factory products. Their point of
vicw-no more selfish than the other
points of vicw--is that Of the buyer,
the CONSUMER ms we say. And
their rights certainly stand on IA
level with the rights of the others.
They are the majority of the Ameri-
can people. They are entitled to
their due share Of consideration at
the hands of the Ways and Means
Committee, and of Congress, when
tariff schedules affecting the prices
of things they have to buy are be
ing revised Hartford Couraut.

AN IMPOTENT TAMMANY.
From The Commoncrl

Mr.. Murphy, the head of Tam
many, says that Tammany did the
best it cuuldn for the democratic
national ticket. There's the rub.
# Tammany had been trcacherous
/. might promise to he faithful next
time, but as it ibid the best it could, y
what hope is there next time? If
Tammany did the best it could, and
could not carry the city of New
York for the democratic national
ticket, several questions arise:
First, was it the fault of the can
ddatcp
Second, was it the fault of the
platform?
Third, vast the fault of Tammany?
Or, fourth, is there New York
democracy outside of Tammany?
If the democratic candidate was
Objectionable to Tommany, the
remedy is to nominate a candidate
next time who is satisfactory to
Tammany-provided, Of course, that
is all that is necessary to insure II
democratic victory.
If ii was the democratic platform
that was Objectionable, the remedy
is casy--lct Tammany write the next
democratic platform-provided, of
course, II Tamnany platform will
insure Il democratic victory.
But if ii was the fault Of Tam
many, the remedy Is more difficult.
How is Tammany to I've reformed2
If Tammany will not support the
democratic ticket and platform when
the ticket and platform are salts
factory to the democrats of the ma
ton, what is To he done?
But the fourth qucstion-is there
a democracy in New York, outside
Of Tammany, that must be con-
suited? If Tammauy did its best,
then either Tammany could not
bring Tammany to support the tick
ct, or there Is a democracy outside
of Tammany that thwarts Tam
many's efforts when Tammany does
its best. And if there is n democracy
outside of Tammany that must be
reckoned with, is it not time for
that democracy To organize itself
and make itself known, so that the
national democracy will have some
thing to cooperate with? In the
late campaign Tammany was recog-
nized rs the local democratic organ
ization, and yet, according to Mr..
Murphy, in spite of the efforts Of
Tammany, the national ticket lost
the city Of New York.
1t will he remembered that even
four years ago Tammany was not
able to roll up n very big majority
for the national ticket although
Tammany doubtless did its best.
That year Tammany helped to NOM
mate the ticket and helped to write
the platform, and it was understood
that both the ticket and the platform
suited Tammany.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1908-11-27

corrected 10y the supplemental re-
turns, Mr.. Palrtcr would still be
elected by n plurality of 81. Was
it right for the Secretary of State
to use part of the supplemental
returns and not use them aIl1 He
says that he used the supplemental
returns only where the error was
SO plain that no room for doubt
could exist. But is it within his
province to say that other errors
which may not have been so
plain to him were lmmateriaI,
in he face of the supplemental re-
turns pointing out those errors
And ism t it a little queer that only
returns favoring the Democratic
candidate were rejected by him.
The whole matter must be gone
over by the Legislature. The Sec
rotary of State says that that body
alone has the power to cast up the
vote tor Northumberland, Sec
Rotary of State, Auditor, Treasu
rrr, Attorney General aud Railroad
and Warehouse Commissioner
that in accordance with custom he
only tabuIated aud corrected the
votes east for those Offices for the
convenience of the Legislature.
But his use of some OF the supple
mental returns aud rejection of
others in the tabulatlOu, at point
where it would appear that his own
party candidate was in the lead, is
liable to create the impression that
such Inconsistency was pcrpetrated
for the purpose of confusing the
Legislature aud getting up Il con
teution in that body through which
the Republican candidate might be
counted in.
1t would not be- right perhaps to
accuse the Secretary of State of
wilIfuI unfalrncSs, but there is Ger.
tainly room for the suspicion that
his craftsmanship has blinded his
better Judgment, the result of which
will doubtless be II bitter partisan
wrangle when the matter comes be-
fore the General Assembly.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1908-11-27
OF FER OFFICIAL COUNT.

The official count Of the vote for
State officers, which was finished
last Saturday aud given out by
Secretary of State Swanger, foOts
up a plurality of 30 votes for Mr.
Gmelich, the Republican candidate
for OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES. All the
other Democretic State candidates
below Governor are elected on this
count by pIuralities ranging III
round numbers from 800 to 5000.
The queer thing about the count
is, that that of Lieutcnant-GOvcr-
nor has the appearance Of being
iuggled. Instead of Mr.. Gmellch
having IA plurality of 30 votes, Mr.
Painter claims n plurality of IS and
is sustained by the facts and fig
ures. After the original returns
were forwarded to the Secretary of
State by the several county clerks,
supplemental or amended returns
were sent in making corrections OF
the vote in many precincts through
out the State. In his official tabu-
lation the Secretary used the orig
inal returns, making corrections in
some instances from the amended
returns. This would have been
all right if he had adhered to the
plan throughout, but this, it seems,
he did not do. The supplemental
returns of Audrain, Charlton, Lin
coin, Dunklin, Linn, Webster and
Worth, which gave Mr.. Painter
u gain of 65 votes and plurality
of 80 in the grand total over Mr..

he, to those who supported me, |
hold nnught of ill-fceling or pique
toward those who felt obligated for
any reason to support som" other
candidate. What candidate for pub
lie favor one may support is always
"a question each man must decide
for himself and because one may
decide for reasons Of his own to sup

Of uiTcnsc to me. Now that the

that the asperitics Of the contest

Gratis will fall into line for better

argument against it and when Tam
