panic has, so far as the popular vote is concerned, not defeated the party in power. But MT. Bryan has been proved unsound on so many financial and economic questions in the past that the Republicans turned their own
 responsibility for hard times into q source of strength. Nothing contrib utcd moro to Mr. Taft's election than the belief of workingmen that his tri- umph would make for the restoration Of prosperity, while MT. Bryan's cleo ton would further retard good times.

BRYAN'S NNMiNATi0T MEANT
 TAFT'S ELECTION.

Mir Taft owes his election less to his own strength than to MT. Bryan's weakness.
 Mir. Bryan's friends insisted that he was entitled to another nomination backed by united party. says the New York World. They had their way. Mr. Bryan received his nom- iration, and a party more united than it has been since tSa2 loyalty sHa- ported him: but e4ea I united parry eeuld not overcome the handicap ol Mr, Bryau's political record. He mas weaker than lis party. as shown bT tbe vote for soyes4or in New York, Minnesota, Illinois and elsewhere: weaker than his issues, which he made still weaker hy the stupendous folly of posing as Rooseyelt's heir
 MT. Bryan's overwhelming defeat is made the more significant by reason of Mir. Taft's vulnerability The Re publican candidate had to bear the burden of general hard times; of a million men out of employment; of business interests complaining and dissatisfied; of steadily Increased cost of living; of all unparalleled dis affection of labor leaders; of an un- paralleled disaffection of the negro vote; of Republican factional fights in the great pivotal states of New York, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois; of re- actionary platform which he was ob- liged to modify in his speech of ac- ceptance; of an insidious use of re- ligious prejudice and bigotry against MT. Taft's liberal and advanced be- lief; of a popular resentment against Mir. Roosevelt's determination to name his successor and proxy.

WHY LIGHTS WENT our

According to officials of the company,
the lights went out at the Academy OF
Music recently, the first time because
the electrician of the theatre used cop
per wire. where only regulation cleo
trio fuses should have been used, and
the management of the Passenger and
Power Company had nothing whatever
to doIwith the incident.
The reason the lights went out in
the auditorium of the Academy on
Thursday night, along with those in
The Times-Dispatch. the post-office and
other buildings in the centre of the city,
was because the electric storms OF the
three days previous had burned and
injured the fuses in the underground
circuits supplying these places. The
lighting company had underground and
overhead forces at work on Thursday
night repairing the damage wrought
by the storm.
On February 14th the company made
application to the city for permission
to put in second or supplement
