vice. Only in that way can we work
for the great nation that has given us
liberty and peace.
Politics Merely Ideas.
Politics." he continued, ''is after

and other towns, who came here by
automobile, trolley and railroad trains
and marched to the home of Francis

Mr.. Wilson, after thanking the
crowd for this generous outoourirg, y

to avoid making public speeches.
"You will forgive me If do not dis
cuss public AFFAIRS he added.
During the day the President was in
communication with Democratic ma
tional headquarters regarding the
progress of the counting of the ballots

Q. 2. Managers Say.

New York, Nov. 11.--Woodrow Will
son has been reelected president OF
the United States.
An unofficial check of estimated
pluralities in the various states lndl'
Gates he also may have received the
nations popular vote.
California was the pivotal state. Its
f3 electoral votes, finally added to the
Wilson column, gave him total OF
272. more than the necessary major
ity Of 266 in the electoral college.
To this may be added New Hamp-
shire.
Apparently it is % longer ques-
ton Of victory for Wilson, but ques-
ii n of how large will be his electoral
college lead.
Huuhes Issues No Statement.
With the democrats over the ma
ton planning to celebrate victory, the
republican national committee still de.
clines to concede Wilson'S election.
Lawrence Green, secretary to
Charles e. Hughes, said in response to
questions by newspaper men that Mr.
Hughes would not send congratula'
lions to President Wilson today.
"Not yet" said Mr.. Green.
MIR. Hughes himself declined to
make any comment upon the election
results. He arose about 8 a. m. and
after reading the news went for an
automobile ride. He apparently was
in cheerful spirits.
Election Not Conceded.
Chairman w. B. Wilcox, refusing
20 concede the election Of President
Wilson, said in formal statement is
sued after a conference with other
republican campaign managers that
the result still depends on the vote
of a few close states and that their
returns thus far announced are in most
states unofficial and may be changed
by the official counts.
'"The result still depends upon the
votes in a few close states, Mr.. Viii,
cox's statement read. "It must be
borne ir mind that the returns thus
official and May be changed by the Of
fetal count required by the laws of
those states. Twice during the unof-

Where the vote Is as close as that
reported in several states it may be
shat material changes will result from
the official count. We eve it to the
country to take all necessary steps to
see that an exact, honest count of the
votes is made. When the current
seemed to be running against Mr.. VIII
son on Wednesday the democratic
managers announced their intention
to demand a recount in every close
state.
"AH we desire is to make sure that
the vote is counted as cast"
Mr.. Wilcox added verbally that it
was superhumanly impossible for the
preliminary count to conform exactly
with the official count.
