ECONOMIC FACTS.

The cost of a frst-class battleship
equals the valuation of all the land the
one hundred building Harvard Uni
versity has accumulated in two hun
dred and fifty years plus all the land
and buildings of Hampton and Tuske-
gee institutes. A modern battleship
becomes practically useless in fifteen
years.
We have fought European foes only
three years in the one hundred and
twenty four years since the Revolu-
ton. In every foreign war we made
the first attack. With less danger
from attack from any other nation,
we are spending more for past war
and preparations for future war than
any other nation in the world.
l. Since 1900 our population has
increased twenty-five times. Our
expenditure for armament has ihcreaS-
ed two hundred and twenty times,
while our danger has diminished.
2. We are spending sixty-hve per
cent of our national revenue for ar
mament, pensions and interest on war
debts, and have only one third for
congress, the judicial and executive
departments, coast guard, Eighth
quarantine, customs, postofices, CEN
sus, waterways, forestry, consular
and diplomatic service and all other
constructive work of the national
government.
3. In four years we have killed
by accident, largely preventable,
eighty thousand more persons than
persisted by bullet on both sides in
four years of civil war. Every year
we destroy vastly more life and
property by the eternal enemies,
ignorance, preventable disease and
crime than in all our six years of
war with foreign powers. We are
blind to the enemies at home and
show an ignoble fear of suppositious
enemies abroad who have never at
tackled us or shown an i'll feeling to-
ward us. Were we to put our taxes
into the Improvements of education,
commerce and agriculture, instead OF
into explosives and new battleShips,
we should do thousand times more
for real defense.
4. Our agreement with Great
Britain in 1917 to remove forts and
battleships on our three thousand
miles of northern frontier ensured
peace and thereby saved hundreds OF
millions of dollars in needless defense.

BOY KEPT SCRATCHING.
Eczema Lasted 7 Years-Face Was All Raw-Skin Specialists Failed, But
 Cuticura Effected Cure.

When my little boy was six weeks old an eruption broke out on his face. 1 took him to a doctor, but his face kept on getting worse until it got so bad that no one could look at him. His whole face was one crust and must have been very painful. He scratched day and night until his face was raw. Then l took him to all the best specialists in skin diseases but they could not do much for him. The eczema got on his arms and legs and we could not get a nights sleep in months l got set of Cuticura Reme- dies and he felt relieved the first time used them. l gave the Cuticura Remedies a good trial and gradually the eczema healed all up. He is now seven years old and l think the trou- ble will never return. Mrs. John G. Klumpp. 80 Niagara St., Newark. N. J., Oct. r and p, 1907."

ROOSEVELT SAYS HE IS DE-
 LIGHTED.

Washington, Nov 5.-The president was in a very cheerful frame Of mind today and told the newspaper men that the election of Mir. Taft wholly carried out a prophecy made by him in a letter written to Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts dated October 2G. 1908. In this letter, the president said:
 Dear Cabot-Prophecy is very bad until after the event Nevertheless, must send you a line to say that l ing in Ohio and east of the Alleghenies l believe we shall have a larger popu- lar plurality than four years ago; in other words, that Taft"s plurality will be greater than mine, and l think our electoral vote will be larger east of the Alleghenies than four years. be- cause I think the chances slightly favor us in Maryland, although this represents a good deal Of guesswork.
 West of the Alleghenies think We shall see a heavy falling off in the ma jorities as compared with 1904, but l do not anticipate the loss of any electoral votes except in Missouri and Nevada, and l am inclined to think that we have an even chance to car rying Kentucky"
 Over 1000 telegrams and many let ters of congratulations on the result of the election poured into the White House today from President Roosevelt. He was busy all day reading these messages and dictating replies to them.

Final Returns Give Democrats 173 and
 Republicans 218 in House.

Kew York, Nov 9.-Final returns received at the headquarters of the Republican congressional committee show that the Republican party will control the house of representatives in the Sixty-fir congress by ma jority of 45, as compared with 57 in the present house. a falling off Of l2 Republican members. The house in the Sixty-first congress will be com posed of 2lS Republicans and l73 Democrats.
 The states that have returned solid Republican delegations to the house are:
 California, Connecticut. Kansas, Maine, Michigan. Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oregon. South Dakota, Utah, Washington, West Virginia and Wyoming.
 Solid Democratic delegations were elected in the following states:
 Alabama. Arkansas, Colorado, Flori- da, Georgia, Louisiana Mississippi, Nevada, South Carolina and Texas.
 One of the surprises of the congress sional campaign was furnished by the state of North Carolina. It will have three Republican members of the low CT branch of the Sixty-first congress. Two Republican candidates were sue cessful in Virginia. The delegation from that state is at present soidly Democratic. The latest figures indi- cate that eleven Democrats and two Republicans were elected in Indiana and two Republicans and three Demo crats in Nebraska.

LATEST RETURNS FROM
 MISSOURI.

St. Louis, Nov. 9.-Returns compiled by the Republic give Taft the cleo toral vote of Missouri by a plurality of 3,172 over Bryan. These returns are complete from all but three of the IA counties of the state, and include estimates based on partial returns from the missing counties. The Globe Democrat places the Taft plurality in excess of 3.700.
 According to the Republic, the pre- sidential vote polled in Missouri Tues day was 19,724 higher than that polled in 1900, which was the high mark Taft's vote is but 6,S2S behind the Bryan vote of that year and complete returns from the three missing coun- ties will probably send it ahead of the Bryan vote years ago.

Adlai E. Stevenson to Demand Re-
 count in Illinois.

Chicago, Nov. 9.-The election Of Gov. Chas. Deneen to serve another term as governor of Illinois will be contested by his defeated Democratic rival, according 10 a signed statement issued tonight by Charles Boeschen- stein, chairman of the Democratic central committee.
 The statement follows:
 Il am convinced that with a cor rect count and an honest canvass, Adlai F. Stevenson has a plurality of the vote cast in the election last Tues day for governor of Illinois. We will demand that the ballots be recounted. The demand for a recount will be made upon the legislature, as proyid- ed for in the statutes"
 Gov. Deneen's plurality is estimat- ed at from 23,000 10 26,000
 Ben H. Atwell, secretary 10 Chair man Boeschenstein, explained that er- TOTS in the count had already been found in several precincts. and it was calculated that if only three ballots in each of the 4040 voting precincts in Illinois were taken from Deneen and given on recount to Stevenson, the latter would be found to have won the election

Tune Kermit Whistied.

Mir w. w. Miller, a wellknown law. yer, tells an anecdote of Kermit Roose- welt, the presidents son.
 T was acting as steward, says MT. Miller, "in some gymkhana races at Oyster Bay few weeks ago, and one of the events was race in which the contestants had ta ride given dis tance to a certain spot where an equal number of young ladies stood with pencil. paper and envelope. Each rider had to dismount here and whis- tie tune, the lady writing its name down on the paper. She then had to seal it up in the envelope and hand it to the rider, who remounted and finished the race, delivering the en- velope to the judges stand The first one in with a correct answer won the event
 AS steward, I was deputized before the race to write down the name of the tune each entrant would whistle.
 What are you going to whistler" l asked young Kermit.
 I'm going to whistle Every body Works but Father,'" said the presi- dents son.

ROOSEVELT MAY SUCCEED PlATT

Washington-That President Roose- welt may be the successor of Senator Platt in the Senate Is considered by many in Washington as not al all improbable Those who regard this as possible declare that they have assurance from the President himself that he will not be entirely averse to the senatorial office under the condi- tions as they will be after March 4. So far as known he has made no re- cent expression on the subject, but he has said within the past year that with Taft as President he would not feel the same hesitency about enter ing the Senate that he would feel with whom his relations could not be as intimate as they are with Taft.
