WHAT OF THE FUTURE?

The candidate of the progressive
party for president secured more cleo
torial votes than the republican cam
date. He also received larger popl-
lar vote. Hence, the question arises,
which party will remain in existence
and which is destined to disappear.
The progressiyes are Of the belief
that their party has come to stay.
The republicans are not saying much,
and they have not got much say com.
ing on the poor showing they made in
the final count Of the votes on the 9Th.

BEFORE WE FORGET IT.

The democratic victory was not
caused by All overwhelming turning
Of the voters to the democratic ticket.
Governor Wilson was elected presi-
dent on smaller popular vote than
Colonel Bryan received four years
ago,
In fact there was a much smaller
popular vote cast than four years ago.
The combined vote OF Roosevelt
and TAFT exceeds the vote cast for the
democratic ticket by over million.
1t was the silent voter who did the
business. All during the campaign
experts predicted that the silent vot-
er would elect the next president.
There We're thousands Of them in ev-
cry state. They would not express Il
preference for president. They could
not be drawn out and made to en-
thnse. Ii they had east their votes
for Roosevelt the rough rider would
now be the president elect.
The silent voter did not go to the
polls ut all. lie was apparently dis
gusted with the unseemly scramble
for the highest office in the gift OF the
people, and thousands OF them in ev-
cry state III the Union stayed at
home Oh election day. Apparently
there was not a great demand for
Wilson even in his own party, be-
cause Il great many thousands Of
democrats who voted for Bryan four
years ago must have either voted for
Roosevelt or Taft, or stayed at home.
by close observation for years it has
been ascertained definitely that /,
democrat never misses Il chance IL
cast his ballot, so it is very probable
that they voted for some candidate
other than Wilson.
The result was Il democratic land.
slide so far us electoral votes go, but
it WAS not Il landslide to democracy
The silent voter did the trick by re-
manning 1T home on election day.
