PROOF OF A UNITED COUNTRY
Gov. Wilson Accepts Memorial on
Behalf of State-Eulogy Pro-
nounced by President Taft.
Taft's Tribute to Lincoln.

"The south knows, as the north
knows now, that there is no soul
that unites them in perfect amity
like that of Abraham Lincoln: the
south knows, as the north knows.
that every administration that re-
moves another cause Of misunder-
standing between the sections, or
that brings them closer together in
any way. Is acting under the in
spiration Of him who could love his
entire country with undiminished
ardor when nearly one-half was
seeking to destroy it's integrity.
Here. then, at a place that knew
battle, that knew family dissension,
that knew bloody conflict, that
represented In the sharpest and
cruelest way a division of the sec
tions: here, now that perfect peace
and unity and harmony prevail.
let this memorial be dedicated as
typical of the love which he. in
whose memory it is reared, main
tained for all Americans, with
kindly. fatherly patience that has
no counterpart since Bethlehem.

HARMON SEES VICTORY
FOR DEMOCRATIC PARTY
Predicts Landslide in 1912,
Based on the Election Re-
suits Yesterday.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, November s.-Bas-
ing his opinion upon the results in Mas
sachusetts, Kentucky and Ohio and other
points where democratic candidates were
elected yesterday, Gov. Judson Harmon
today predicted national democratic
landslide next year.
1.-THE results of those elections have
pleased me veryAmuch,'' he said, land
consider them forecast of what is to
come next year. 1t Is the strongest in
dorsement Of democracy that has been
rendered by voters in recent years. Not
only local elections do / consider signih-
cant, but also the elections in kentucky,
Massachusetts and other points. The
elections in Ohio show unquestiOnably
that the public Is pleased with the pres
ent administration, the tax reforms that
have been made and the management OF
state Offices under democratic sway"
Pleased With Cincinnati Results.
When asked regarding the Cincinnati
results Mr.. Harmon said:
PERSONALLY nothing could have pleased
me better. 1 have fought for twenty
five years to free Cincinnati from the
sway of republicanism. and am certainly
delighted to find that the voters have
awakened and broken the chains that
bound her.
signs of victory for the democratic
party are evident everywhere. Next year
i predict that this party will win the
national Offices, including the presidency.
1t Is an Endorsement of the democratic
administrative I>olicies and the labors al
ready performed by that party"
