Why WILSON MILL Win

The final an official figures in TIE
Vermont vote are: Republican.
$3.50: democratic 2O,35O; third
party $1,000. The republican
plurality over the democratic vote
is 500.
The slender figures of the republi-
can plurality represent the tragedy
of the republican party in 1912.
1t reflects the destruction Mr..
Roosevelt has brought upon that
organization says the Portland,
Ore. Journal.
Manifestly, the vote for both the
Taft and Roosevelt candidates csme
from the republican party. In
stead of losing votes to Roosevelt,
the democrats increased their
strength many thousands, drawing
probably a considerable vote from
Disguised republicans. Ofthe re-
publican strength. the Taft candi-
date got SO per cent. and the
Roosevelt candidate 81 per cent. In
some such PERCENTAGE with their
relative positions varying, some
times with Roosevelt in the lead,
Taft and Roosevelt are going to
divide the republican vote of the
country. 1t is to be a worse party
split than was the great democratic
schism of 1860.
"a. What, else does this memorable
situation mean than that the candi.
dacies of both Taft and Roosevelt
are utterly hopeless? Compared
with the vote of 1908, if Roosevelt
gets only IL per cent of the re-
publican vote in Ohio that state
will go to Wilson. Roosevelt will,
as a matter of fact. poll 30, SO
or even greater percent of the
Ohio Republican vote. In 1908
only ! per cent Of the Taft vote,
DETECTED to third candidate
would have given Indiana to Bryan.
A change of az per cent of the
Taft vote in New York to a third
candidate would have given that
state to Bryan. A loss of 80 per-
cent Of his vote to third candidate
would have lost the State of New
Jersey.
Such q division of the republican
vote as is now on between Taft and
Roosevelt would, in 1908, have
given the following states to Bryan
on percentages as follows:
Missouri, per cent; Delaware, !
per cent; illinois, 20 per cent;
Kansas, 10 per cent; Maize, 46 per
cent; Massachusetts, az per cent;
Michigan, 48 per cent; Minnesota,
a per cent; New Hampshire, 80 per.
cent; North Dakota AZ per cent:
Oregon, 38 per cent; California, 40
per cent; Connecticut, 40 per cent,
and Idaho, 30 per cent.
That there will be such division
Of republican strength between

land. or unusual interest is the fact
that the natives bear names that can
be translated into English. suggesting
that survivors of the Franklin expedi
ton may have lived among them.
They have some Scandinavian char.
acteristics and are different from any
other American aborigines. Two Of
them wore boards of a reddish color
and all had light eyebrows. Nothing
learned from them indicated that the
race as It exists today had ever seen
a white man.
The courier who first went forward
to parley with them almost lost his
life, when a native attacked him with
knife. Friendly advances were final
ly. successful. and by means Of the
sign language and the assistance Of
native guides communication was held.
The race was an aboriginal one
called Akuli-a-kat-tag-m i-ut. II had
been believed that the territory was
uninhabited.
