"a cursory glance will show that
the union Of the two Republican par
ties of 1912 would make Connecticut
Republican by $4,000, Illinois by
100000, Indiana by $4,000, Iowa by
10000, Kansas by $4,000, Massa-
chusetts by 100000, New Jersey by
10000, aid Ohio by 100000.
1t must be considered that Will
son had many thousands Of ardent
supporters in 1912 who will not vote
for him today. And 1t must also be
remembered that in the party dis
affection a great mass of Republic
cans did not vote at all.
Turning to the election of No
vember, 1914, three important pol
itical facts are evident:
First: The Republicans carried
upon national issue states that
would give clear majority in the
electoral college and elect a Republi-
can president.
Second: the Democratic majority
in the present House is only the re-
suit Of the Progressive vote in Ger
tain districts of the country, and the
Democrats are really minority par
ty In the House of Representatives,
Third: Two-thirde of the Progress
sive vote of 1912 has not only ceased
to support third party candidates, but
has returned to the support Of Repub-
lican principles and candidates.
Republicans Get Majority.
"Twenty-three states were carried
by Republicans with a total of 2SS
electoral votes, This is a majority
Of twenty-five over the 266 necessary
for a choice. In three states there
was a division on national issues.
Thus, in Oregon, South Dakota and
Nevada Democratic senators were
elected while Republican COMPRESSION
al delegations were chosen. At this
election 230 Democratic members Of
the lower house Of Congress were
chosen. In thirty-nine Of the con
gressional districts, however, the Pro

gresSiye vote was larger than the
Democratic plurality so that, had it
not been for the Progressive vote, the
Democratic membership in the present
House would he only l9l, with 2lS
necessary for a majority. In four
states, California, Colorado, Indiana
and Oregon the Progressive vote
elected four Democratic senator's.
81 think it is clearly evident what
became OF the Progressive vote of
1912. The approximate figures showed
a Republican gain Of 2,4S9,5SS over
the Republican presidential vote Of
1912. The Progressive loss was
2,5OISl1.
Big Republican Plurality.
an the twcnty-three states carried
by the Republicans the Republican
plurality over the Democratic vote was
more than one million. In 1912 the
Wilson vote in the same states was
larger than the Taft vote by about as
much. or the total votes cast by the
three parties in these states in 1914
the Republicans cast 1916 per cent,
the Democrats $50 per cent, and the
Progressives 11.5 per cent, In 1912
the presidential vote was: Republi-
cans, 2S.4 per cent Democrats, 39.7
per cent, ProgressNes 31.9 per cent.

total strength of the voters among Re.
publicans, Democrats and Progress,
slycs, based on past performances, and
not taking in consideration some Of
the clements that will work to the ad-
vantage of the Republican party this
year, it is perfectly evident that, even
if the Republican party holds less than
one-half of the Progressive support
and receives only approximately its
own normal strength the election OF
Hughes is assured,
ut IS interesting to note the results
from ten states in which Republicans
were not successful in the 1914 cleo
ton, these being representative states
in different sections Of the country. In
the total votes cast in these ten the
Democrats won by plurality OF less
than 100000. in 1912 the Democrats
plurality in these same states was ovei
ono million. A very small percentag,
Republican gain would have put three
of these states into the Republcancol
umn, as an increase Of little ovel

DETROIT, AUGUST g. Political
prognostiCators of all party afIilia
tons are very busy these days in
making forecasts. Democrats pro-
Tess to obtain great comfort over the
report that in some states the Pro-
gressives are apparently not present
Ing a united front against Democra-
cy. Indeed, some are sanguine
enough to predict that they will OBJ
tain enough support from the Pro-
gressive voters which, added to the
normal Democratic vote, will insure
the election of Wilson.
This contention is, however fout-
ed by careful students of the political
situation, who by virtue of their eX-
perience and connection with the in
side and intimate working Of cam
paigns, are competent to Judge.
Charles B. Warren, member of the
Republican National Committee
from Michigan, in an interesting talk
has given valuable and compre-
hensive synopsis of the situation bas-
ed on the Progressive vote of past
campaigns.
Estimates Look Good.
while estimates are not altogeth-
er convincing" said Mr.. Warren,
"they are valuable as indicating the
Tendency toward one candidate or
another as regards the party pref
erence of the mass Of individuals. In
twenty-seven states which gave Will
son two hundred and eighty-three
electoral votes In 1912 the combined
Taft and Roosevelt votes in that year
exceeded the vote cast for Wilson.
In fifteen of these states Roosevclts
vote was greater that that of Taft
and in twelve Taft's was larger than
Roosevelt's. Had the combined
Roosevelt and Taft votes been cast
for one candidate, that candidate
would have received 279 electoral
votes to Wilson's So It h e
1872 coming almost entirely from the
solid South. Wilson's total vote in
1912 was 6,2S3,O54, while the COM
bine Taft-Roosevelt vote was 1904

Total II ,372,S22 1,479. 100 46G,7O5
Every election, special or other
wise, since 1912 has shown a steady
drift toward the Republican party. In
the senatorial and congressional cleo
lions Of two years ago the Republicans
carried twenty-thrce states which
would give them a clear majority Of
electoral votes of twenty-five, This
did not include ten states for which
the Republicans are lighting this year:
California, Montana, Nevada, Arizona,
Nebraska, South Dakota, Oregon, Mis-
souri,, Kentucky and Indiana, The
total electoral vote in these ten states
is eighty-seven. The Republicans are
pretty sure to carry practically all OF
these states, but if you add only third
of this vote to the 2S from the states
carried in 1914, it makes he electoral
vote for Mr.. Hughes in the neighbor-
hood of 81, although think it will go
higher"
