Taft Hears Returns

In the same house where he hsard
the news Of his victory over William
Jennings Bryan, four years ago.
President William H. Taft read tht
bulletins that told the story Of the
election The President was cheer
ful and smiling, and apparently was
under less strain than other members
OF the family dinner party at the
home of his brother, Charles P. Taft
In Cincinnati.
The President voted shortly before
noon today, spent few minutes at
Prosperity League headquarters and
then returned to his brothers home
to rest. To many friends the Pres
ident declared. that no matter what
the result he Intended to remain a
Republican, and to keep up the fight
for the principles he believes are
involved. A report that he might
consent to become the nominee Of
his party four years from now was
put aside by his friends as too far
ahead for serious consideration. Mr..
Taft has many times declared his
intentions of returning to Ci1cinna-
ii, and resuming the practice Of law,
and that intention was said not nave
altered

PROMINENT DEMOCRATS.
FOR THE CABINET.

: Cabinet makers already are busy
conjuring with names of those who
will share with Wilson in shaping
the policy Of the next administra-
ton. Necessarily this is pure gos-
sip, but the cabinet builders are none
the less active in pointing out the
persons and the elements available
as cabinet material.
One OF the available elements en-
braces those who were conspicuous
party figures at the Baltimore con-
vention, including Speaker Champ
Clark. Chairman Underwood, of the
ways and means committee; William
j. Bryan, Governor Foss, Of Massa-
chusetts; Governor Harmon, of Ohio,
and some others. 1t is generally as
summed, however, that Speaker Clark
and Chairman Underwood would pre-
fer to continue their work in con-
gress, especially now that the legis-
lative program on the tariff and 9TH
er questions is likely to meet with
fewer obstacles. As to Mr.. Bryan,
one Of the Democratic senators was
quoted during the campaign as def
nitely assigning Mr.. Bryan to a cab
met place in case of>Wilson's cleo
ton, although the latter said about
the same time that no consideration
had been given to the personnel of
the cabinet.
Another element from which cab
met material is being suggested en-
braces those who have been prom
inently identified with the Wilson
campaign, notably Chairman Nc
Combs, Of the Democratic national
committee; Representative Burleson,
and Henry. of Texas; Representative
Palmer, of Pennsylvania Assistant
Chairman McAdoo, and number Of
others who bore the brunt Of the
conflict at Baltimore during the cam
paign.
Yet another available element is
made UP Of prominent party figures
in the various States VINO were not
conspicuously identified with the re
cent national convention and cam
paign while another includes some of
the veterans of the last Democratic
administration.
Outside Of these usual elements
from which the cabinets are con-
structed, many foresee the entry Of
considerable new element In pub-
lie affairs, made UP Of men like MIR.
Wilson, who have been Identified
with collegiate, educational and eco
nomic study, Of public Questions
This opens wide field of available
material. All Of this activity Of the
cabinet makers is necessarily con
fined as yet to gossip. Nothing au-
tboritative is expected until the pres
ident-elect has in his own way made
an investigation and given conside
ration to those who will make up his
official household.

WILSON THANKS HIS
RIVALS BY WIRE.

President-elect Wilson sent replies
to the eongratulatory kilograms of
President Taft and Colonel Roose-
velt and issued statement in which
he said that there is absolutely
nothing for the honest and enlight-
ened business men of the country to
fear" from the Democratic admin
istration.
To President Taft Mr.. Wilson
sent the following telegram:
II warmly appreciate your kind
message and wish to express my sin
cere personal regards"
To Colonel Roosevelt Mr. Will
son sent the following telegram:
MY sineerest thanks for your
kind message Pray accept my cor
dial good wishes. "
OFFlCIAL STATEMENT.
Mr.. Wilson made this official
statement:
The result fills me with the hope
that the thoughtful progressive for
ces of the nation now at last unite
TO give the country freedom of enter
prise and government released
from all corporate and private inffuy
ences devoted to justice and prog
ress. There is absolutely nothing
Tor the honest and enlightened bus
mess men to fear No man whose
business is conducted without viola
lions of the rights of free COMPETE
ton and without such private under
standing and secret alliances as VI
olate the principles of our law and
the policy OF all wholesome COM
merce and enterprise, need fear eth
er interference or embarrassment
from the administration. Our hope
and purpose Is now to bring all the
forces Of the nation into active and
intelligent cooperation and to give
to our prosperity freshness and
spirit and confidence such as 1t has,
not had IN our time.
The responsibilities Of the task
are tremendous, but they are COM
mon responsibilities, which all lead
srs Of action and opinion must share.
And with the confidence Of the peo-
pie behind us, everything that is
right is possible, My own ambition
will be more than satisfied II may.

man of the nations thoughtful pur-
poses in these great matters. 4

Kentncky Heavily Democratic.

Although 1t became evident early
n. the night wilson would caBry
Kentucky by heavy majority, at
midnight it appeared that another
lay would be required to take exact
measures of his victory Several
strong Republican counties went into
the Democratic column and Lee
county for the first time in its his
tory gave majority for the Demo
cratic nominee. When returns had
oeen received from 70 out of the
l20 counties in the State, Wilson,
with approximately 100000 had a
plurality over both Taft and Roose-
welt OF about 10000.
Louisville and the rest OF the
Fifth district went Democratic for
The second time in a quarter OF a
century. II was declared certain
that the Democrats would be elected
n the first nine Of the eleven dis
tricts. In the Tenth district, from
which the Courier-Journal at mid
light had received very sparse re-
oorts, the result was said to be in
ioubt.

WOMEN VOTE LIKE VETERANS

show Perfect knowledge OF Ballot
Ing Methods in San Francisco.
The voting question troubled the
women OF San Francisco not al all,
as they voted on time with confidence
and intelligence and in large num-
bers. In spite OF rain, probably the
largest vote ever cast In San Fran
cisco was polled, and Of this from
25 to 35 per cent came from the
women.
II want to be the first woman to
vote for Wilson," said Mrs. j. q.
Acton, as she marched into the elec.
ton booth one minute before s in
the morning. Much to the surprise
of her husband, who was one Of the
inspectors. she wrote her name down
without hesitation, stepped into the
ballot stall, and returned shortly,
folded her ballot properly and asked
no questions.
The greater part OF the women
voted for Roosevelt. They voted
generally against yiscious legislation
and for good measures. Their bal
lots were cast in favor of consti-
tutional amendment for free text
books in the public schools and d
proposition allowing San Francisco
to increase its territory.
Active campaigning had been car
ried on by many women for these
latter measures. and all of them had
been threshed out thoroughly in all
the women's clubs.
AS they nave voted in two prlnia-
ry elections previous to this, they
showed great familiarity with the
technical forms Of casting the ballor,
Most OF them voted with the same
nonchalance and air of sophistication
displayed by the war veterans VINO.

NO STAMPEDE.

About the best thing Of all in the
result of the election is the fact mat
there Was no stampede.
Roosevelt and his friends made a
great fight; he is a man of tremen-
dous personality and all the quail
ties calculated to arouse enthusiasm
in his followers. The attempt at his
assassination was d thing that sure
.ly would have swept the people Of
the country off their feet II they
were of a Kind ruled by their emo
tions rather than their intellects
and sober sense. But they kept their
heads, as they have always done in
the past when confronted with crises

Punishment Of the Aliens.

The plea Of DR.. Geo. w. Mcdaniel
that the sentence OF death on Claude
and Floyd Allen is unjust and
should be committed to lighter
punishment has received wide pub
licity. We see from the Virginia pa
pers that the sentiment remains for
severe punishment, but over here in
West Virginia we find that II mod
crate consideration could be extend
ed the Aliens 1t would be heartily re-
ceived.
