ping once and for all out of their

Giants made the most Of their oppor-
tunity to rest to-day.
While the National League cham-

OF the position they occupy with the
series standing three to one In favor
of their Boston rivals. who need only
one game more to cinch the cham
pionship. not a man Of the Giants

in this crisis the lighting they dis
played several times during the league

honors had them forced into a corner.
Once more the team is forced down

While absolutely convinced that
Woodrow Wilson will be the next
President Of the United States. Demo-
Gratis who have studied the situation
closely realize that IN order u win

test should go to the House OF Repre-
S.ntAtives.

who has declared that Wilson will
carry every State In thu Union. They
realize that talk Of that sort Is
idiotic. Tn IRE are SCI votes IN the
electoral college. and. as stated. the
winner must poll 2ss.
Opposition Could latte.
Out Of the mass of Information and
transformation which has been
printed about the procedure IL the
event that no candidate receives a
majority vote in November. the North
American Revi.w appears to have I'M
earthed the real facts. The Review says
that II Wilson and Marshall fail to
obtain 2ss electoral votes. there Is no
provision In the Constitution or
statutes preventing the opposition
electors. who would constitute a ma
jority. from uniting upon and electtng
either Taft or Roosevelt. or q third
person. The likelihood of their reach
ing such an agreement must be re-
garied. however, under the circum-
stances as negligible"
The duty would then de-olv. upon

vote and choice being restricted to
