GREAT CAUSE OF
DEMOCRATIC Loss
Throughout the Country
in Recent Years.
IS SUMMED UP IN FEW WORDS,
Just a Small Per Cent. More
Democrats Voting Would
Win Victories.
A FEW SPECIMEN INSTANCES

There is one duty for Democrats
20 perform that Will ret bear post
iorement until the usual more con-
ver.ent season." Ths important
dutv IS TO sec that all DEM
ocrats vote. At the last State cleo
ton trifie over two per cent more
Democrats voting would have carried
Massachusetts for Governor. A lit
tie less than two per cent more DEM
ocrats voting would have elected a
Democratic Governor of Missouri.
Just over one per cent more Demo-
Gratis voting would have elected the
Democratic Governor of New Jersey;
the relative per centage of votes cast
being Republican 5O.55 and Demo-
cratic 1850. Less than four per
cent more Democrats voting would
have elected the Governor of New
Hampshire. Less than half of one
per cent more Democrats voting
would have elected the delegate to
Congress from New Mexico. Less
tNen three per cent more Democrats
voting would have defeated the Re-
publican Governor OF Kentucky and
Republican United states Senator.
Taft carried Indiana by only one and
one-half per cent more votes than
Bryan received. The Democrats
carried Colorado for President by
only LII per cent more votes than
the Republican candidate received.
These figures show the import
ance of Democrats voting. Two
more Democrats voting in addition
to each 100 votes cast will change
the result in some States, and will
certainly elect many candidates for
Congress and the Legislature who
otherwise will be defeated.
There are enough Democrats in
all the close States and CongresSion-
al districts to elect the Democratic
candidates If they will only come
out and vote. The lazy and the lag
gard voters must be urged to do
their duty to themselves and to their
country by their ardent Democratic
neighbors who bear the heat and the
toll of the day.

To the Notorious Sugar
Trust Scandal.
PARDONS GRANTED EMPLOYEES
Serving Sentences for Con-
nectiOn With $4,000
000SUgar Steals.
TAFT TRIED TO STOP PROBE

[By ClydeH. Tavenner, Staff Wash
ington Correspondent of TheHerald]
Washington, Oct. 15.-Now comes
the remarkable announcement that
the President has pardoned Edward
A. Boyle, John R. Coyle, Patrick j.
Hennessey and Thomas Kehoe, four
former Government employees who
were serving sentences for connec-
ton with the 100000 sugar trust
frauds in New York.
This action has raised in the
minds of many the following query:
Did the fact that these men hoped
for early pardons deter them from
fully exposing the men higher up?"
BY placing steel springs in seven
teen pair of scales, the trust robbed
the Government of more than ST.
100000, and afte being exposed,
admitted the crime by returning the
plumber. The secretary and a few
minor employees were sent to prison,
and four OF them have now been par
doned. The multi-millionaire sugar
barons into whose pockets the $2,-
100000 would have gone had not
the crime been discovered, have
gone scot free.
Democrats and progressive Repub-
licans sought in the last Congress
to bring about a Congressional inves-
tigation of the fraud, believing 1t
ridiculous for the administration to
assume that few SIS a week sugar
weighers would steal $2,0O0,O00 for
some one else and lay themselves
liable to penitentiary sentences, un-
less they had been bribed by the
men or agents Of the men who would
secure the proceeds of the fraud.
President Taft himself prevented
the Congressional investigation by
recommending against it in his an
nual message to Congress. He took
the view that an investigation might
give Immunity" to the men high
up.
Representative Henry T. Rainey,
of Illinois, led the fight for the probe
Of ttI swindle, contending that in
stead of assuring immunity" for the
big thieves, an investigation would
only bring out their Identity.
1t developed that the President
recommended against investigation
of the sugar trusts crime upon the
advice of United States attorney
General George c. Wickersham.
Mr.. Wickersham was particularly
qualified to give the President ad-
vice and suggestions in matters con-
corning the sugar trust. At the
time OF his appointment to the posi-
ton of Attorney General-an ONCE
which places him in complete and
absolute charge OF the prosecutions
Of trusts-he was a sugar trust at
torney.
Mr.. Wickersham and Henry w.
Taft, the brother of President Taft,
we're members OF the firm of Strong
G. Cadmalladen, of New York. For
services rendered the sugar trust.
Attorney Henry w. Taft received
$25,75O, which he turned over to
Strong & Cadwallader, and the last
thing Mr.. Wickersham did before
starting in to represent the people
was to draw down and pocket his
share OF the sugar trust fee.

towns and cities in the main have
been disappointing. There must be
a reason for this, as the State should
certainly keep pace with other pro-
gressive municipalities in the mat

been suggested that high taxes have
had a depressing effect, and this may
be true. The average good business
man, whether an employer or an
employee, generally keeps his eye on
