The Machine Excuse

In IN attembft to explain the de-
feat Of the Republican candidate for
county commissioner at Tuesday S
election The Cairo Evening Citizen
places the blame on the Republican
voters of the county. The Repubh-
can organ says that every precinct
in the county gave Mr. Taylor a ma
iority because The Democrats went
to the polls and voted, and that
the Republican vote remained at
home in large enough numbers to
defeat the Republican candidate
This admission if true. signifiying
acute apathy in the Republican
ranks--an indifference SO pronounc-
ed thar the usual persuasive methods
of the party organization and the
distress call from the party organ
we're unavaiIable-is most crafty
ing to Democrats The Citizen
should not allow itself to believe
everything it publishes just because
everyone else does, Comparison OF
election returns with those of for
mer years proves that Republicans
visited the polls last Tuesday in
eoodly numbers and that at least
few voted to suit their own incliua
tions. Take the votes in Thebes,
dear old Republican Thebes, where
Republican presidents tbefore or
afterl have not visited since the
DAYS OF Abraham Lincoln and where
Republican governors to be have not
seen fix to campaign since Grandpa
Marchildon Joined the stalwartS,
the once county seat and Republican
hot-bed voted for county commits
sioner last Tuesday something like
this: Taylor, Democrat, f76: Hal
liday, Republican, Al. Mr.. Taylor
received more votes than tho com
bined vote for Taft and Roosevelt
last FALL He received i02 more
votes than were cast last fall for
President Wilson and he received
50 more votes than were cast last
fall for Commissioner Gilbert. And
this is Thebes.
ANA the Citizen blames the Re
Duollrans. Who else could they
blame The organ dared not init
mate that the party leaders blunder-
ed, and it did not want to admit
that many progressive Republicans
bad fallen from grace to the poin
af voting for DemotT-t, and no one
n the outside would be unkind
nouph to whisper that the organl-
faticn spilled its candidate when
t realized that somewhere, since
he political Jobs are fading, the big
rachine had slipped cog and that

Greatness Of City Illustrated
by Statistics.

New York.-Professor Supan of Co
tina, whose annual "Bevolkerung der
Erde" is accounted the authority on
such statistics, last year estimated the
population Of the world at 1,623,3OO, 900.
During the year which ended June
30 last the ground, underground and
overground transportation lines of
New York carried more passengers by
LAG, $3.50, 284 than this total, tables made
public by the public service commits
sion giving the number of passengers
as 1,769,ss9,2s4.
By boroughs the traffic was distribut-
ed as follows: Manhattan, 1,112, $685.
1913: Brooklyn, 521, 233,913; Bronx, a.
III, 453; Queens, Al, 467, O14; Richmond,
13,578,O66 The years increase for
the city was 90,O74,5SO, which is al
most equal to the population Of the
United States.
The figures for the subway and ele-
waited lines in Manhattan are regarded
by the engineers of the commission as
being the most significant in the new
tables. For the first time the subway
carried more passengers than the ele-
waited lines, it's total being 327, Al SO
more than 100000 each working day.
The elevated lines carried 3O6,845,-

subway gained 24,497, 1854. During the
