MAP OF NORTH AMERICA.
United States Geological Survey Issues
New Map of Continent.

How many people would guess that
the Atlantic end of the Panama canal
j. on the west coast of Panama and that
the Pacific end is on the east coast :?
Look at the map and see how the east
coast of the isthmus becomes a west
coast. Although a map of the continent
of North America, it is worthy of note
that the United States geological sur
vey has just issued large map of
North America, 2S by IS inches, in three
colors This is probably the most ac-
curste general map Of its character
that has vet been published and is par
tiularly well adapted for school work.
1t is on scale OF l5S miles to inch,
which is sufficient to show in consider
able detail the major geographic di-
visions. such as states and provinces.
Colorado thus extends 2l2 inches east
ana west and Cuba AZ inches the long
est way. The map is sold by the Di-
rector Of the Geological Survey, Wash
ington. d. c.. at the nominal price of
20 cents copy, or mt a discount OF
40 per cent. in case as many as 25
maps are ordered. This wholesale rate
covers simply the cost of paper and
printing.

that nearly $4,000 votes taken away
from the Republican party meant only
one thing, defeat. How could anybody
think that Taft's election was safe
when the party in Vermont the Repub-
lican star that never sets-had lost one
quarter of the Republican State vote;
and nearly 5000 to the democrats?
Yet the double column stuff and all the
other little stuff throughout the State
kept shouting that Republican victory
was assured. There are a good many
men in Burlington, taking their thought
from the false prophet on College street,
who were very sadly deceived when the

ROOSEVELT.

Theodore Roosevelt is probably the
most remarkab man in the world. His
campaign in the interest of righteous
ness and honest government is unique
in history. After serving his term as
President he practically placed William
Howard Taft in the chair he had va
Gated four years ago. Mr.. Taft began
his term by laundering and continued
that personal policy during his term.
Col. Roosevelt watched the policies
of his successor for three years; and
he decided that Mr.. Taft was not
keeping faith with the people. He
threw his chat in the ring"-in his
own phrase, and made his wonderful
campaign for the primaries. The
fight was a most enormous one against
the entrenched forces of the Republican
party and Mr.. Taft, his family and
his friends. He apparently beat them
all, but his nomination was stolen from
him by bold and notorious theft.
Beaten by fraud he took up the fight
for righteousness, in the presidential
campaign. The first great success was
to turn nearly $1,000 votes to the Pro-
gressive cause in Vermont at the State
election. That result was almost a
miracle, in the hard headed conscrva-
tism of Vermont, where for fifty years
the star of Republcanism had never
set, keeping the regular majorities
every year without fail. This year
there was none. The present campaign
is so recent that it needs no discussion,
only the mere fact that he received q
big national vote, passing Taft anC
coming in second in the fight. This re-
suit of the campaign of one man anc
his new organization, is most remark,
able tribute to the man who had the
power and the popularity to lead the
great uprising in the interest of the
people-Theodore Roosevelt. Burling

A new party has been established; a
new national force is to be reckoned
with. 1t has accomplished in three
months as much as the first Republican
party in six years. 1t is a national
party.
1t has shown that it has the courage
to recognize things as they are and to
demandl that they be set right for the
sake of the people. The hopes of the
people for social justice and recovery of
the government to their own hands
have been realized in written creed.
1t lives on, one entire organization con-
WINGED of the right and title of the
people to what they demand, and de-
termined never to cease until this is
secured.
The spirit that has assembled to-
gether the millions who have fought
this time for the highest justice, moral
ity and human betterment will never
cease. The advance made to-day is
momentous. The radicals" and 'vis-
ionaries" have convinced the nation OF
their vision. This is the record they
have written into history. Boston

ROOSEVELT TODAY.

Theodore Roosevelt today, more than
ever stands the greatest living Amerl-
can, with record of devotion to the
true interests of his country unsur-
passed by that of any man in the race.
No chapter of his life work contains
finer or more noble proof than the one
which has just been finished. Knowing
perfectly from the beginning the fierce
ness of the opposition which he would
meet, he has thrown himself into the
leadership of this campaign for the
people with disregard of his own fate
or future, with disregard of self that
has been magnificent, and with an in
spring power never approached even in
his own record. AS result the nation
has been awakened and brought face to
face with the living issues as never be-
fore.
1t has been given to him to represent
the hopes, the desires, the high enthus-
asm of the earnest men and women of
this country whose purpose is to better
the living condition. Ever before him
has burned the vision of a giant re-
public, throned on the seats of
righteousness, realizing the brother
hood of man.
He has reused a whole people to see
that politics may be enlisted in the
service of humanity and of righteous
ness. The whole movement has been
one of quickening the conscience of our
people and making it the master prin-
ciple of our national life. AS a service
of the people it overtops even the
splendid achievements which were his
in the seven years as President. -Bos-

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1919.
THF PROGRESSIVE PARTY.

We publish a number of letters from
prominent journals showing that the
Progressive Party has come to stay.
There must be two parties and Messrs.
Taft and Co. have apparently killed
the Republican party.
In the meantime the Progressive
Party has taken its place with large
maiorities in most of the States over
Mr.. Taft.
There probably was never more
transparent outrage of the kind COM
mitted than the action of the managers
of the Republican Party in nominating
their candidates.
The contest was between Roosevelt
and Taft as to which would be nomi-
mated for President. In the mean
time the vote at primaries in the
different States gave to Roosevelt
over 100000 majority. This alone
should have been sufficient as matter
of policy or fair play to have caused
the nomination of Roosevelt, but no
attention whatever was given to it.
Then came the swindling in the nam
ing of the nominating committee, the
decision being made by committee
chosen over four years ago, not in
touch at all with the sentiment of to-
day, but strongly opposed to. Mr.. Roose-
welt.
Further dishonesty of the grossest
kind took place in this nomination of
Mr.. Taft, and included acceptance
of many negro votes from the South
that were practically purchased in
advance by being made office holders
appointed in southern States by
Mr.. Taft's administration. The result
was Just what it should have been, and
what the convention were warned it
would be, the nomination of Roosevelt
by a new party. And this New Party has
come to stay, certainly until the gross
abuses which have crept into the man.
agement of the Republican Party, in
Guiding great expenditure of money,
at National elections, have been cor
rected.

COL. ROOSEVELT CONGRAT-
UlATES WILSON,.
Accepts Result With Entire Good
Humor and Contentment.

Oyster Bay, New York, Nov. s.
Shortly before midnight Col. Theodore
Roosevelt made the following state
ment:
1.-The American people by great
plurality have decided in favor of Mr..
Wilson. and the Democratic party.
Like all good citizens l accept the re-
suit with entire good humor and con-
tenrment. AS for the progressive cause
l can only repeat what have already
so many times said; the fate of the
leader for the time being is of little
consequence, but the cause itself must
in the end triumph for its triumph is
essential to the well being of the
American people.
(Signed) THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
About the same time he issued his
statement, Colonel Roosevelt sent the
following telegram to Governor Wilson:
1.-THE American people by great
plurality have conferred upon you the
highest honor in their gift. l con-
graduate you thereon.

WILSON'S FIRST STATE
MENT.
"A Great Cause Has Triumphed
Every True Progressive"
Must Now Assist.

Princeton, N. j., Nov. 5.-Respond-
ing to telegram from the democratic
national chairman asserting that Gov
ernor Wilson was elected, the demo-
cratic candidate sent a dispatch to Mr..
McCombs as follows:
81 deeply appreciate your telegram
and wish to extend to you and the men,
bers of the campaign committee my
warm congratulations on the part you
have played in the organization and
conduct of campaign fought out upon
essential issues.
"a great cause has triumphed. Every
democrat, every true progressive, of
whatever alliance, must now lend his
full force and enthusiasm to the fulfil
ment of the peoples hope, the establish
ment of the peoples right, so that
justice and progress may go hand in
hand"
This was Governor Wilson's first
utterance of public character follow
ing his acceptance of the reports that
he had been elected.
