HOW NEW YORK PRESS INTER-
PRETS VERMONT ELECTION
A Plea for the log Cabin

Mr.. Roosevelt cannot get enough
votes in Republican territory to do
himself any good. And II he cannot
get them in Republican territory,
how can anybody expect him to get
them in Democratic territory In
Vermont his party is able to count
only a small fraction Of the whole
vote cast.
Nobody can doubt that every Roose.
Welt vote In Vermont was put in the
ballot box. The Roosevelt followers,
enthusiastic to a degree, do not fail
In any test to do all that 1t is in
them TO do. There are no more Roose
,elt ballots in Vermont.
But with his collapse in Vermont,
Mr. Roosevelt shows more than his
own failure TO poll enough Republic
can votes to do him any good; he
shows that his third term movement
makes votes for the Democratic par
ty. The Democratic candidate for
Governor did not lose votes compar-
ed with 1910. lie gained votes; he
gained them not merely relatively
but positively. Compared with 1895
he did the same thing.
The lesson from Vermont is that
there is no possibility of the Colonel
being elected President; that the
most he can hope to achieve is the

WATCH FOR THE UGLlnESS

Speaking about trains - what a
good place to size up people.
Just watch nearly everybody run
over everybody else and those com
ing out of the coaches, as well as
the conductor and porter, in order
to make sure of good seat. Was
there ever o better example of the
ritter selfishness of most people?
And again but few people want to
share a scat with a stranger and two
people often try to hold two seats,
using one for their feet. On trains
not only the selfishness in human
nature is displayed but all the ugll-
ness.
Just the other day we saw a nice
~ dressed scamp refuse to share q
seat with two little girls whose
mother, carrying a baby, crouched
down by another woman. The little
girls, not very clean to be sure, We're
allowed to stand in the aisle for
some time, the scamp, meanwhile,
trying to salve his conscience by
giving them candy.
One only needs to watch people to
determine not to be like them.

Here is an equation from a bottle:
John G.. Schroeder OF St Paul was
arrested In Chicago for passing
worthless thirty dollar check on sa-
loon keeper According to Schroeder
the last eight years OF his life may he

lost In the eight years:
Half a million dollars In cash
His position IN a big business.
His reputation.
His friends
His health.
on the other side Of this equation he
got during the eight years:
Ten drinks OF whisky a day.
What Is the answer Ten drinks OF
whisky per day cost, say. 1865 year;
in eight years. s2.g20. or suppose the
drinks cost as much as Is cents. That
would aggregate $3.50.
