Bryan Points to Progressive
Slump as Outstanding
Fact in the Elections.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 10.--The cleo
tiOn could not be considered otherwise
than as a complete endorsement or
president Wilson and his policies, IN the
view of secretary of state Bryan, VINO
has returned to his cabinet position
after campaign trip in the west. He
pointed to the slump in the Progressive
votes as the outstanding feature Of the
election.
Secretary Bryan said this had resulted
in no change in the leadership of the
regular Republican ranks; that senator
PenrOCe and former speaker Cannon
would represent their party IN congress
and that PrOEresslveS returning 10 thar
party would have to accept all they had
protested against and more.
Presidents Policies Endorsed.
The statement follows;
1.-THE election of 1914 cannot be con-
sidered otherwise than as an endorse
ment of the president and his policies
] am so convinced Of the merits of the
remedial measures enacted under the
presidents leadership and of the right
eousness Of his foreign policy that eX-
pected the voters to support the candi-
dates who supported his views There
were a number Of causes which oper-
ated against our party, namely the Ell
forts Of the beneticlaries OF proLectlOn
who out Of resentment, sought to make
the tariff law obnoxious: the disturbed
condition caused by the European war;
and the fact that the excellent laws
passed by congress had not hau time
to prove their worth. Then TOO, more
PrOgressiVes returned to the Republi-
can party than we eXpected-thlS alone
accounted for most of the Republican
gains in the house Of representatives.
The victory, however, was sufficiently
complete to show that the people are
with the president and he is now able
to continue the splendid program upon
which he has entered.
senate Gains Are Gratifying.
"The gains in the senate are espee-
Tally gratifying-not a single Democrat
defeated for reelection. and three SEN
atorships taken from the Republicans.
There is every reason to believe that
the administration will grow in popu-
larity as the laws go into effect and
as Democratic policies bear fruit the
new currency law is just beginning to
operate: before the next election it will
have vindicated its claim to public con-
fidence.
'The new tariff law cannot be re-
pealed until after the people have had
a chance to try it out and now that the
election is over, the protected manufac-
turers are already resuming work.
The outstanding fact in the late
election returns is the slump in the
Progressive vote. A large percentage
Of the Progressive Republicans have
returned to the Republican party and
that too, without any surrender on the
part of the stand patters' and the re-
dictionaries. The leadership Of the regu-
lar Republican party has undergone no
change. Senator Penrose and eX-
speaker Cannon will represent that
party in the senate and house, and the
returning ProgreSSiVeS must be pre-
pared to accept all that they protested
against, and more, for the standpatters,
after having overcome the detection,
are further from reforms than they
we're two years ago

Two hundred million Moslems await
the word of Sheik u islam, their spirit
ual leader, to raise the standard of the
holy war against the Christian world
The advent of Turkey into the European
conflict may be followed by the most
serious consequences. The sultan has de-
clared that he viii call the help of all
the faithful" and endeavor to reconquer
the colonial possessions of England
France and Italy. Sheik u Islam is the
real religious head of the Moslems and it
is his word that may start The holy war.
England is menaced in Egypt, where the
only troops left are made up largely of
natives. France foresees serious difficult
tics in Algeria and Morocco. Italy is
already attacked by the Mohammedans.
