PREDICTING RESULTS.

Wall Street Journal: 1t is doubtful
If the stock market as representing
the barometer of public opinion and
the aggregate OF public knowledge as
TO the material affairs of the coun-
try, was ever really wrong in its
forecast Of presidential election.
1t is saying now that Mr.. Hughes will
be elected, in spite of the weakness
shown on Monday If there were
any real fear of four years more of
the cowardice. incompetence, and
mischief of the past, the stock market
would exhibit a depression to which
the decline of Monday would be the
merest incident.
In 1912, tho stock market foresaw
the election of Mr.. Wilson. and prices
tended to regulate themselves on the
economy promises of the democratic
platform. rather than on past expert
ence Of democratic performance.
The election of Mr.. Taft was odual-
" foreseen in 1908, and the re efec.
ton of Mr. Roosevelt in 1904, al
though there was little love lost be-.
tween the latter and Wall Street.
McKinley's second election was a
certainty; and the stock market
ceased to treat Bryan seriously at
least six weeks before the election
of 1896
Wall Street foresaw the reelection
of Grover Cleveland in 1892, and 1T
was assured that he was strong,
consistent man, holding sound eco
nomic views. and certain to veto
legislative follies such as VIC have
experienced in the PAST four years.
There might haVa been some do!bt
as to Harrison's narrow victory in
1888, but the depression of 1884,
to a financial crisis OF the
second class. had nothing to do with
the Presidential election of that year. |
Blaine was liked in Wall Street. !
which, however is not swayed in its
forecast of events by prejudice; and, |
as has been shown, foresaw with ac-
curacy the election OF candidates |
whom 1t has neither liked nor trust |
ed. II Is necessary, in fact, to go
back to the Hayes-Tilden election to
find an occasion where Wall Streets
foresight has been at fault. AS a
matter of fact. there are many PEG
pie living. and many authorities be-
Tide the New York Sun, who believe
hat Tilden was elected. and robbed
II the fruits OF ssvictory.
Mr.. Wilson is only 3S per cent
President on the vote OF 1912, and
here are many thousands OF dissatis- 4
led republican votes which he win i

IS no sign OF alarm on that score. 4
