We demand for the people of Alaska
the full enjoyment of the rights and
privileges of aterritorial form of gov
eminent and. we believe that the, off
Gals appointed to administer the gov
eminent of all our territories and the
District of Columbia should be qualified
by previous bona fide residence.
THE RUSSIAN TREATY.
We commend the patriotism of the
Democratic members of the senate and
house of representatives which compelled
the termination of the Russian treaty OF
1882, and we pledge ourselves anew TO
preserve the sacred rights of American
citizenship at home and abroad.
No treaty should receive the sane
ton Of our government which does not
recognize the equality Of all our clti-
zens irrespective of race or creed, and
which does not expressly guarantee the
fundamental right of repatriation.
The constitutional rights of American
citizens should protect them on our bor-
ders and go with them throughout the
world and every American citizen re-
siding or having property in any FOR
eign country is entitled to and must
be given the full protection OF the
United States government both for him
self and his property.
PARCELS POST AND RURAL DE-
LIVERY.
We favor the establishment Of a
parcel post or postal express and also
the extension of the rural delivery sys-
tenn as rapidly as practicable.
PANAMA CANAL EXPOSITION.
We hereby express our deep interest
in the great Panama canal exposition
to be held in San Francisco in 1915 and

We believe in the conservation and
the development for the use of all the
people of the natural resources of the
country. Our forests, our sources of
water supply, cur arabic and our miner
al lands, our navigable streams and all
the other material resources with which
our country has been so lavishly en-
dowed, constitute the foundation of our
national wealth. Such additional leg
islation as may be necessary to prevent
their being wasted or absorbed by spe-
ciaI or privileged interests, should be
enacted and the policy of their con-
serVation should be rigidly adhered to.
The public domain should be admin
istered and disposed of with due re-
gard to the general welfare Reserva-
,tions should be limited to the purposes
which they purport to serve and not
extended to include land wholly UNI
suited therfor. The unnecessary with
drawal from sale and settlement OF
enormous tracts of public land, upon
which tree growth never existed and
cannot be promoted tends only to re-
tard development, create discomfort and
bring reproach upon the policy of con-
servation.
BROAD PUBLIC LAWS.
The public land laws should be ad-
ministered in a spirit of the broadcast
liberality toward the settler exhibiting
a bona fde purpose to comply there
with, to the end that the invitation
of this government to the landless
should be as attractive as possible; and
the plain provisions of the forest re-
serve act permitting homestead entries
to be made within the national forests

proxy of Governor Blease, as the New
berry member of the committee, sup
ported the resolution and declared that
Governor Blease did not want and
would not have the nomination for
governor if tainted in the slightest de-
gree with fraud He declared that he
would not believe the Democracy of
South Carolina had stopped to fraud
until he had the actual proof and did
not think the vote was too large in
view of the intense interest and the
increase in the. population of the State.
He declared his belief in the honesty
of the election and that the governor
had gotten a majority of the votes Of
the people and had won the nomina-
tion.
A demand by Secretary Benet, that
the committee investigate the charge
made against him by Governor Blease.
that he had sent a short number of
ballots to Pickens and Lee counties,
and the absence of any display of par
tisan feeling were the other features
of the meeting today. A large num-
Der of spectators were present and in
tense interest was displayed in the ac-
ton the committee might take.
Meeting Called to Order.
The State Democratic executive COM
mittee met today in the library of the
State house with a full attendance on
hand. Chairman John Gary Evans
called the committee to order prompt
ly at noon Secretary Christie Benet
called the roll, showing IL counties out

announced that only part of the re-
turns were in.
Mr.. R. B. Caldwell moved that COM

what returns were in and tabulate
them and report to the full committee
Mr.. Padgett thought this was useless
until the full returns were in, and that
the work would all have to be gone

ed returns were in from 32 counties

THE POPULAR VOTE

appears the incomplete returns of the popular vote that more 15OO00oo ballots the presidential election Of this number Woodrow Wilson have about 65Oooo0, Roosevelt 422o,ooo and Taft 3,939OO
 balance cast for the three minor parties Socialist Socialist Labor and Prohibition with first named the 1ead with somewhere between 100000 and 8OO,0OO votes
 Governor Wilson is not the first chosen president of the United States, who has had overwhelming DOT tion of the electoral college without majority of the popular vote.
 Abraham Lincoln lacked popular majority in 1860. Garfield in minority in 1880. Cleveland had jority of the electoral college but minority of the vote
 Majorities only possible under the American tenn of voting where there two party syste other parties casting but small number of votes.
 It reasonably certain that the two party system is at end in this country For years to it is like ly that majority rule will be marked by it's absence.
 The party casting the largest fraction of the vote will wied mostof the power and will ordinarily hold the pres idency and the legislative power.
 For the present the Democratic sweep seems impressive than the earlier returns indicated The great Republican party of yesterday controls than three states electoral The Progress sves established the second party and would to be in the future likely to absorb the Republican party than that substantially denet organization assimate the Progressive.

MACDONALD TO QUIT
REPUBLICAN CHAIRMAN IN NEW HAVEN ANNOUNCES HIS RE-
 TREATMENT AFTER Is YEARS SERVICE.

New Haven. Nov. 7-Following the announcement that Col. L M. UlIman is to retire from politics comes the further announcement that Col. Theo- dore H. Macdonald will also retire. He has been chairman of the town committee for 15 years and during the past two years has given his time and work to the party though at times his physician has told him that it was dangerous for him so to do.
 In the fifteen years in which Col. Macdonald has served as chairman the city has been uniformly carried by the Republicans. Only two Democratic Mayors, Driscp1I and Martin, have been elected in that time.
 It is probable that Charles W Bire- can have the job if he wants it.

WALL ST. WANTS TO KEEP BRYAN
 OUT OF CABINET

New York, Nov. 7.-The haste of leading Wall street Democrats to eliminate william J. Bryan from com sideration by President elect Wilson for appointment as secretary of state and their action in issuing statements that Col. Bryan has personally an nounced he would not accept cabi- net appointment are not borne out by the facts.
 Bryan was telegraphed at Lincoln the fact that certain persons were quoting him to that effect and asking for a statement. He replied as fol-
 s.No one is authorized to speak for me and would not, of course, dis cuss the subject at this time"
 There was little doubt among the best informed politicians here, today, that Bryan will be the premier of the new administration. It was his per sonal attack on Murphy, Belmont and Ryan that swung the Baltimore con- vention to the New Jersey governor.
 His friends here said it was certain that no one Democrat in the country would have such popular support for a cabinet position as Bryan. His ap- pearance on the stump during the re- cent campaign was the signal for demonstrations eclipsing even the torrid campaign of 1896, it was said

DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY

Besides winning the Presidency, the Democrats will have a tremendous
 majority in the House of Representa- tives, ands if present indications are Senate. With the exception of the first half Of Clevelands second Ad- rr1inistratton, this will be the first time since the outbreak of the Civil War that the Democratic party will have had control of the three branches which devolves the power of Iegisla- ton and administration. And in that exceptional two years following the election of 1892, the situation both of the party and of the country was so peculiar as to block disasrousay the constructive work. The silver ques- ton was approaching its acutest stage, and upon that question the party was hope1essly divided within itself; the national finances were in critical condition, and preparations had been for taking the extraordinary step of a bond issue in time of peace; a deso- latinx panic proStrated business very soon after MT. Cleveland's inaueura- tion; and finally a little group of ma cffne-made Senators, bitterly hostile to Cleveland, was in position to paralyze the party in the upper branch of Congress. In every one of these respects, the situation today is in most gratifying contrast to that of 1892 The Democratic Congress will have the opportunity, and we believe will have the will. to cooperate effec- lively with the Democratic President in a great program of national prog ress That it may be guided by wise as well as patriotic leadership is to-, day the hope and expectation of the country.-New York Evening Post.
