G. O. p. GROWING STRONGER

Considerable interest is added to
President Wilson's speech in Indian
apolis by the publication of the Repub-
blican national committees analysis
of the returns of the November cleo
ton, in which it is said that the Re-
publicans carried upon national issues
states that will give a majority in the
electoral college and thus elect a Re-
publican president.
In addition, figures are presented by
he committee to show that the Demo-
cratic majority in the next house is
only the result of the Progressive vote
in certain districts Of the country and
that the Democrats will really be a
minority party in the house of repre-
sentatives. Figures are also given to
show that two-thirds of the Progress
i've vote of 1912 has not only ceased
to support the third party candidate,
but has returned to the support of the
Republicans.
The Republicans carried % states,
according to the committees figures,
which cast 288 votes for president, a
majority of % over the 266 necessary
for choice. Three states-Oregon,
South Dakota and Nevada-are classed
as doubtful, as on national issues they
divided their allegiance, Republican
congressional delegations being elect
ed, while Democratic senator's were
chosen. The makeup of the new con-
gress is given as follows:
Democrats
Republicans
Progressives 6
Others
In thirty-nine of the congress dis
tricts which elected Democratic men,
bers, the committee points out, the
Progressive vote was larger than the
Democratic pluralities, so that had it
OF been for the Progressive vote the
Democratic membership in the next
house would be only 1911, while 218 is
necessary for a majority.
Big Progressive Loss
1t is also alleged that the Progress
sive vote elected Democratic senators
in California, Colorado, Indiana and
Oregon: In answering the question as

vote of 1912 the committee says that
