Total for all candidates. .....l4,852,23 9
This grand total exceeds by 1,34l,-
531 the total number of votes cast In
the Presidential election Of 1904,
when the grand total was ~13,51O,7O8.
Compared with that election, the
candidates of the Republican, Demo-
cratic and Socialist parties increased
their votes this year. The reverse Is
true of the candidates Of the Prohibi-
ton, Populist and Socialist Labor
parties. The independence party did
not figure in the Presidential election
Of four years ago.
The greatest difference in a party
vote Is shown in an increase Tor
Bryan of 1,315,2H over the total
vote cast in 1904 for Alton B. Parker.
Judge Taft received 14,190 votes
more than were polled for President
Roosevelt in 1904, and Debs ran .45,-
1858 ahead Of his predecessor on the
Socialist ticket.
The heaviest loss Is shown by the
Populists, who, with the same candi-
date, registered 1892 votes less this
year than in 1904, when their total
was 1913. The Prohibitionist can
didate, Chain, ran 1924 votes be:
hind the 1904 mark Of his party, n
Gilhaus, the Socialist Labor candt-
date, received only about fifty per
cent. of the vote given to Corr1gan,
which was 31,249 in the previous
Presidential race !
New York (87O,070), Pennsylvania
(745,779) and Illinois (629,932)
gave Taft the greatest number OF
votes among the States, while as to
Bryan the order was New York l667,-
1852, Ohio (502,721) and. Illinois
(450,S10).
The votes cast for Taft and Bryan
were almost identical in number m
Maryland and Nevada. In the first
Taft received 111,253 and Bryan
111,117, and in the other 1924 and
1866, respectively.
Debs received his largest vote IN
Pennsylvania, 1928; Illinois, 49,
I'll, and New York, 38,45l. Yer,
mont was the only State In which not
q single vote was cast for the Social
ist candidate. Delaware gave MIN
only se~venty-ive votes. ,
Hisgen's vote in New York (35'-
817) and in his own State OF Massa-
chusetts (19,237) together formed
nearly two-thirds Of all the votes ne
received in the whole country. In SIX
States not a vote was cast for him.
Nine States registered not a single
vote for the Prohibitionist candidate.
The Socialist Labor candidate re-
ceived votes in only thirteen States,
and in only nineteen States were
votes cast for Watson, Of the Populist
party.

silage is relatively rich fl carbohys

is particularly true In raising fine

will furnish this succuleney cheaper
than root crops. Silage is inclined to
be fattening, and should be fed IN
limited quantities to breeding ewes.
Silage fed ewes give strong, vigorous
lambs, and drop them without trou-

A Pertinent Reply to
Escambia's Critics.

The Journal has noted in several of
its esteemed contemporaries through.
out the state sarcastic reference to
the new county Jail proposed to be
built in Pensacola For instance, The
Palatka Times-Herald puts it this
way: ''Escambia county now finds ii
necessary to build a new Jail in order
to meet the ever-growing number OF
criminals. Rather a bad showing fol
boastful wet territory"
Why "boastfuI"? The Journal has
always contended that Escambians do
no boast" half enough, considering
all they have to boast about. We are
willing to admit, however, that if the
county were dry the Jail would not
contain so many tenants-if that is
what the Times-Herald is driving at.
But, as a matter of fact, the jail
here is antiquated and unfit for its
purpose; and as Escambia county
claims, without boast" to have its
mind set upon keeping the pace with
other up-to-date sections, it recognizes
the defects in its present Jail and
wishes to provide one More in accord
ance with modern ideas.

The expression consistency, thou

The newspaper man throughout the
length and breadth OF our great coun-
try and naturally it springs to ones
mind when a dispatch informs us
that because a West Point cadet had
his neck broken in q football game
the sport must cease so far as the
Military Academy team is concerned,
but may be continued by the team of
the Naval Academy. Must we under
stand that the authorities consider the
game q dangerous one for our future
soldiers and not for sailors or that the
Hfe of the latter is of less value than
that OF the former? Or is it that foot
ball is what may be termed "a local
issue" and before it becomes a dan
gerous pastime at any school some
pupil of that particular school must
have his neck broken or meet his
death by some similar mishap in the
game? The Journal is not, as they
say, against" football or any other
manly sport when conducted honor
ably and with discretion. but what is
sauce for the gose is sauce for the

game be called on at West Point the
