The Presidential Election

A government abstract esti- mates the vote in November at more than 15, GOO, 900. We have never yet reached the 15.O0O. 900 mark. although we came near it in 1908. Considering that two new states will participate, that our population in the other states is larger and that there is liable to be a hotter fight than four years ago, the vote this year should exceed that of 1908 by at least a million,
 The total number then was IA, 887, 900; in 1900. 13. 965, 900; in 1892, 12,O44, GOO, and in 1888, Il, ,381, GOO. Dividing the vote thus officially recorded into the population named by official counts or estimates for the years in question, this shows the aver age population for each vote cast as follows: In 1908. 5.98 persons for each vote cast; in 1904, 6:1O; in 1909. 5.44; in 1896, 5.1O; in 1892, 5. 40, and in 1888. 5.27.
 There has been for some time a discussion as to whether the new or old apportionment would be used in the electoral college, and the matter at this writing is not wholly settled. If the old apportionment is followed the vote by states will be the same as in 1908. with the addition of Arizona and New Mexico. The total vote of the college under this apportionment will be 489, requiring 245 to constitute a majority.
 Should the new apportionment be made the basis, however, there will be 531 votes, requiring 266 to elect. This would give an increase of forty two votes, of which the south would have six Ditributed by states. the increase would be as follows: New York. 6: Pennsylvania, 4; California and Oklahoma. 8 each; Illinois, Massachusetts, 2 each, and Ala bama, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Idaho. Louisiana, Mich igan, Minnesota, Montana. North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon. Rhode Island, South Dakota, Utah and West Virginia, 1 each.

BACON IS
NOW SURE OF
THE HONOR
WILL BE PRESIDENT PROTEIN
Day of Combines in SenaIG
Nearly at an End

Washington, D. c., Nov. 12.-When
the senate meets March 4 next in
special session. to confirm the cabi-
net appointments of President Wilson
and act upon such other nominations
as he may send in, the democrats, for
the first time in eighteen years, will
be in control of that body.
One of the first things on the pro-
gram will be the reorganization of
the senate itself by putting the re-
publicans on the minority side of all
committees and giving to democrats
all the fat chairmanships. The dead
lock over the election of a president
pro tempore, which has continued ever
since the resignation of the late Sena-
tor Frye, of Maine, will end, and the
democrats will name a man of their
own selection
Senators Bacon, of Georgia; Till
man, Of South Carolina, and Martin,
of Virginia, entered the senate March
4, 1895. They are the oldest in term
Of service of all the democrats. Sen
ator Bacon is the nominee of his
party for the office at the present time
and undoubtedly will be given the
honor of an election as president pro-
tempore after his party comes into
power.
In the recent election, in addition to
the election of democrats to succeed
eleven democrats now sitting, repub-
licans have been retired and their
places filled by democrats in Colo
RADIO, Delaware, Kansas, Montana New
Jersey, Nevada and Oregon. The va
cancy in Colorado also will be filled
by a democrat. The 80 holdovers, the
reelection of party men in the elev-
en- states where terms expire March
next, and the eight new senators
chosen last Tuesday, make total oil
40 votes, which gives them control OF
the upper house without having to re-
sort to the vote of the vice president
Two democratic senators were lost
one in Maine, and the other in West
| Virginia.
| The contests in Illinois, where two
senators are to be chosen, and in Ten
nessee and Michigan remain to be de-
cided. Tennessee undoubtedly will
\ send a democrat, either regular" OIL
! independent" and the party mana
gers make positive assertions with re
gard to the outcome in the other two
But no matter what the result i!
when the full returns are heard from
democratic control in the senate il
assured, and if the party is able tx
work in harmony, it will shape the
legislation coming before the senate
without regard to the attitude of the
progressives. The day of combines
in the senate seems to be at an end.

FORMER PASTOR

A SCRAP
LIVELY TILT in AUGUSTA
Rev. 0. P. Gilbert Quickly Re.
SentS an Insult

Americas people read with interest
yesterday the story of lively fisticuft
taking place in Augusta, the partici-
pants being Rev. 0. p, Gilbert, pastor
of the Second Baptist church, of Au-
gusta, and Mr.. J. Marvin Haynie, city
editor of the Augusta Chronicle, the
scrap" having occurred on crowded
Broad street.
Both participants were arrested and
cases made against them.
1t appears that Mr.. Gilbert had been
called liar over the phone when
informed that he had expressed himself
as getting a dirty deal regarding a
church notice. When he and Mr..
Haynie met soon thereafter on Broad
street there was a head-on collision
between the press and pulpit
Mr.. Gilbert was formerly pastor Of
the First Baptist church of Americas,
going hence to Augusta.

TAYLOR NOW
ENTHUSED over
GOOD ROADS
new MACHINES At WORK
Will Try TO Guido Sumter in
Fine Highways

Sumter county is greatly interested
in the good road work that is planned
for Taylor county and that in a few
months may, with the cooperation of
the county commissioners of Macon
county give a fine highway from
Americas clear through to Butler.
Taylor county people are jubilant
over the work done by the latest i'm
proved road machinery bought by
their commissioners and installed on
the road work, now to be pushed as
vigorously as weather conditions will
permit
The Butler Herald, in recent is
sue, says:
THE county's mammoth traction
engine and three four-wheel plows
were unloaded and coupled together
Friday by corps of competent engi-
neers and machinists and as they
passed through town, created no small
bit of interest. The first day and a
half was spent out on the level and
the road from Butler thereto.
THE crowd that followed this great
train Of road building machinery
watched its wonderful operation with
great amazement, and many declared
that it excelled every expectation for
it.
Yesterdays accomplishments were
even far greater Leaving here about
/ Z o'clock yesterday morning the road
from here to Reynolds, as we'll as
that three miles below Reynolds was
| plowed from both sides and the dirt
/ thrown to the center and crew re-
turned here with the outfit about 6
o'clock.
I'VE firmly believe that any who
is pessimistically inclined over the
proposition of broadening and build
ing good roads with this modern
equipment will suspend judgment un-
til fair test has been given they will
share with the commissioners assured
feeling that the undertaking will prove
a complete success.
They have not gone into this mat
ter hastily, but have given it due anC
timely consideration and that, too, af
ter making a thorough investigation a
their own expense, having visited 9th
er sections of the state where thi:
same machinery was working entirely
satisfactorily over roads of far les:
adaptability for such machinery thar
to be found in Taylor county"
