He Heard He Was Elected.

Cincinnati, Nov. 6.-In the same
house where he heard the news OF his
victory over w. J. Bryan four years
ago, President Taft last night read the
bulletins that told the story OF the

Miss Della Torrey Of Mulberry. Mass,

President Taft at II p. m. conced-
ed the election of Governor Wilson
and issued the following statement:
1.-The returns insure the election Ut
Governor Wilson to the presidency.
This means an early change in the
economic policy OF the government in
reference to the tariff. II this change
can be made without halting prosper
ity, sincerely hope it may be.
''The vote for Mr.. Roosevelt, the
third party candidate. and for Mr..
Debs, the Socialist candidate, Is a
warning that their propaganda in fav
or Of fundamental changes in our con
stitutional representative government
has formidable support.
while the experiment OF change
in the tariff is being carried out by
the Democratic administration, 1t be
hooves Republicans to gather again te
the party standard and pledge anew
their faith in their party's principles
and to organize again to defend the
constitutional government handed
down to us by our fathers. We mus
make clear to the young men Of the
country who have been weaned away
from sound principles of government
by promise Of reforms impossible o
accomplishment by mere legislation
that patriotism and common sense re
quire them to return to a support o1

we must reinforce our ranks with con
