rules did lock up the side dishes sew
eral terms ago. In Georgia alone the
new administration has about 100 pres

neyshlps, one job as collector of inter-
nal revenue, probably one district
judgeship and several score of minor
places TO give those faithful ones who
gave freely of time, gasoline and ora

gone forth from Seagirt that in Georgia
old factional lines are to be forgotten
in cutting the melon. and that Wilson

to be given-if they get the right back

HIS VICTORY GREATEST
IN C0UNTRY'S HISTORY

WASHINGTON, Nov. Sal
though Woodrow Wilson was
elected president of the United
States in one of the greatest up
heavals in the history of American
politics, the vote today showed
that he was in reality minority
president-elect. Wilson s popular
plurality was estimated at 1902
397 over Colonel Roosevelt.
Wilson's total vote seems to have
been e,756,500. However, the combined
Roosevelt-Taft popular vote is 1881
000 The total vote for President Taft
and Colonel Roosevelt was nearly 1,000,-
600 more than Governor Wilson's vote.
Roosevelt's total is estimated at 4,664.-
2O3 and Taft at 3.072,797.
According to returns gathered by
The Chicago American, Wilson is victor
in Illinois by plurality of approx
mately 10000
The returns. unofficial, but practi-
cally complete show that the down
state Wilson vote has more than over
balanced the Roosevelt lead in Cook
county
