STORY OF A CHTLD'S WRONGS.

A SlXteenyear-od girl, conVuSed with weeping
and overcome with shame, has been telling Wash
ngton jury her pitful story of betrayal, ruin and
degradation 1t is not unlike another that founa
its way into the local courts few months ago, of
child msled and her life wrecked by men much older
than herself
In this newest case the circumstances we're eS-
pecialy appealing The little girl, pretty and win
some, left at home to care for three younger
children while their mother was absent nursing, to
support them. The child victim charges married
man, twice her age, with coming to her home under
these conditions gaining her confidence, and taking
advantage Of her innocence
The defense has introduced testimony to show
that the accused seducer was not the only man who
had taken like advantage of the unprotected child!
If the defense is proved, it is merely the shame
full demonstration that there are more men in this
town capable of such peculiarly vicious practices If
il is possible to make defense against such a
charge, by showing that child of sixteen has op-
portunity in this city, to become a woman of the
town. then it is an awful indictment of the decency
the manhood, and the moral conditions of the whole
community.
One thing is certain that in the case of such
child, the defense here offered ought to have mighty
little weight with court or jury
If mere children must be assailed as morally
degenerate, as habitually depraved, what shall be
said for the moral standards OF the community that
makes their degradation possible?
And finally and most important if these accused
men are convicted what punishment is too severe?
The Cincinnati man who is going to eat twelve
bananas day for thirty days. on wager has been
taking advantage of somebody's innocence. Con-
sidering the number of people in Central America
and some of the islands of the sea who have been
doing better than that for lifetime, the feat would
not seem to be so very difficult
Dr. Mary Walker, who is lying seriously i'll at
hotel in New York, had her own strong peculiari-
ties, but her life nevertheless, has been one of SER
vice for mankind and her many friends in Wash
ington earnestly hope for her recovery.

amount of mountain dew while the Aliens have

One-Third Of State Gives
Roosevelt a Lead Over
Wilson for the Presiden-
tial Electors.
DEMO CANDIDATES
MAKING GOOD RUN
Dunno Had a Walk-a-Way in
the City of Chicago andtis
Choice for Governor; Bit
ter Fight on Candidates.

Chicago. Nov. 6-Illinois remained
in the progressive column on the vote
for presidential electors by barely 49,
600 with third of the state yet to
hear from at noon today. Gov. Will
son gained 10000 on the plurality Of
26,477, Col. Roosevelt was given by
Chicago. Gov. Deneen apparently ran
third.
While less than half of the pre-
cincts in Illinois outside Of Cook coun-
ty reported, Roosevelt's lead over
Wilson in the state will be reduced to
less than 10000. ..
Coionel's Lead Narrows.
What on early returns last night ap-
peared to be landslide in Illinois for
Col. Roosevelt this morning had mar
rowed down to bare plurality over
Wilson of 5000 and almost half of the
state was still to be heard from.
Many of the counties whose votes
have not yet been received normally
are democratic and supporters Of the
colonel entertained some apprehen-
sion Of the final result.
The results from 2,493 precincts out
CT 4,286 gave Roosevelt 238,393; Will
son 230,4S9 and Taft 141,421.
On the face of the first Cook county
returns the progressive party man
ayers .prsdieted a, plnralit OF at ieast
100000 votes In Illinois for the col
onel.a Roosevef's standing in 1922 out
Of the 1,498 precincts in Cook county
was 135,297 to Wilson's 109905. In
1.271 precincts out of 2,7S8 outside Of
Cook county Wilson's vote was 12O,584
and Roosevelt's 1OS,096. There re-
main 1857 down state precincts to
report.
Judge Dunno, democratic gubernator-
ial candidate, is generally conceded a
plurality of $4,000. The vote from
1880 precincts gave Dunno 212,261;
Funk, progressive. 141,632 and Deneen,
republican, 137643.
Dunno led both in Cook county and
down state. The entire democratic
state ticket was swept into office.
Two surr..ses were the defeat Of
former Speaker Cannon by O'Hair
democrat in the eighteenth district, and
the magnitude Of the socialist vote.
In Cook county, Guinea, socialist, ran
ahead Of the~republican candidate for
states attorney and only about 5000 be-
hind Hoyne, democrat, who was elec-
ted Cunnea's vote was estimated at
$4,000. Two socialists were elected to
the legislature. Progressives and So
cialists hold the balance of power in
the legislature on joint ballot. Nine
progressives, 81 democrats and 96 re.
publicans were elected. There are 204
members with 103 necessary for
choice in the selection Of two United
States senators.
Gov. Deneen, 1t was announced was
considering calling an extra session Of
the legislature to fill the Lorimer
vacancy. ~.
It was believed early today that Viii.
liam Mckinley, President Taft's cam
paign manager, had been defeated to-
succeed himself in congress.

WHOLE SLATE
DEMOCRATIC
Practically Every Branch of
the Government of New
York State Will be Jeffer-
so1lian by Election.

New York, Nov 6.-New York state
went democratic in practically every
breach of its government. Congress-
man Sulzer was elected governor by
plurality estimated at 100000 over
the nearest opponent, Job E. Hedges
republican.
The legislature probably will be
strongly democratic in both branches.
Sulzer received plurality not only in
the democratic strong hold of New
York City. but also in the upstate dis
tricts. The totals in New York City
were Sulzer 303,741; Straus 1882;
Hedge 1850.
Gov Sulzer's activity in !. urging
an abrogation of the treaty with Rus
sia for discrimination against pass
ports presented by American Hebrews
help to split the Jewish vote that
would otherwise have largely gone to
Straus, the progressive nominee.

MOREHEAD IS
CONCEDED ELECTED

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 6.-Although
only one-fifth of the state had sent re-
turns early today, they were sufficient
to indicate the election of Wilson elec-
tors and Of John H. Morehead, demo
crat. for governor.
The Omaha Bee. republican, con-
cedes that Wilson's plurality in the
state will probably reach 10000, while
the World-Herald democrat, claims
his plurality at $4,000. Roosevelt IS
running second. Democratic managers
claim the election of Morehead for
governor by 10000. Except in the
first and third districts where demo
Gratis are reelected the congressman
