FOOD FOR THOUGHT.
Free Press

Free Press.
That the president-elect could poll
25. 600 fewer votes than did Mr. Bryan
in 1908 and yet have 271 more electoral
votes than the Nebraskan had in that
year-in fact more electoral votes than
any previous candidate is perhaps the
most startling but not the most i'm
portant revelation Of the latest election
figures.
For instance, Of greater significance
even than this expose Of the minority
possibilities under our electoral system
is the fact that the complete vote is
more than 500, 900 short Of the total
four years ago. This despite the addi-
ton Of the women's vote in California.
This shrinkage is well distributed
and indicates a nation wide revulsion
against participation in the late three
cornered contest.
Politically considered, the figures re-
veal the significant fact that, contrary
to their claims and in spite Of the
strenuous efforts Of the Progressives,
the third party movement in the south
was a failure. In not a single southern
state, except Louisiana, did Mr.. Roose-
welt get more votes this year than
President Taft did four years ago, and
in Louisiana his lead is only forty-four
votes in total Of less than 10, 600.
When the complete official returns
are in and tt experts have delivered
their analyses, there will be material
for even more serious reflection on the
meaning of the recent campaign.

was tired after a long day of shopping
and walked up the aisle to the front
seat, which proved to be empty. At the
next stop three people got on, who com
pletely filed the short cross seat ID
front of her.
Fares, please"
Helens heart leaped as she heard
the conductors voice, and she felt a
vague sense Of irritation because a
mere trolley car conductor should pos
sess voice exactly like Ralph FAIR
lees deep tones. She turned her head
and stole a glance at the approaching
conductor. Her heart leaped again
when she discovered that the back OF
his shapely dark head was exactly llke
that of Ralphs and that the swing or
his broad shoulders as he turned might
have belonged to Ralph
Her head turned face about and she
compressed her lips. "What IA both

1t was more than a bother to be
reminded of Ralph Fairlee at that mo.
ment 1t was positive pain to the girl
who had been engaged to Ralph Tor
three happy months. OF course the
engagement was thing Of the past
or It would not have caused Helen
Blair any pain to be reminded OF It's
previous existence.
At last the conductor came to the
front Of the ear once more, set back
the Indicator and began to collect fares
for the second stage Of the trip.
Fare, please" he doomed in front
Of Helen, and again her heart leaped
as she fshed out a nickel and gave it
to him.
Then under the brim Of her droop-
ing velvet hat she permitted her face
to relax it's cold hauteur while she fell
to dreaming about Ralph Fairlee, who
had taken their quarrel seriously and
left the city to seek work elsewhere.
Ralph's father was a rich man, and
old Mr. Fairlee had queer ideas about
rich mems sons. He believed that
these same sons should demonstrate
their ability to earn money and prove
themselves capable of taking care OF
money already earned Ralph had
different ideas and wanted TO begin at
the top of the ladder. He had quar-
relied with his father on this pont.
He had quarreled with Helen on an
other matter and, estranEed from
both, must be very lonely now. Hell
ems heart was breaking for love and
pity Of him.

owners OF lots to stand III the way
of removing a menace to the tombs
and monuments in the cemetery
nor interfere with identifying the
grounds. AS far as possible the

lots will be respected.
