cratic candidate received 1e,T63 votes
and the Republican candidate 2o.3S4
votes, a majority Of s6S3.
an the year 1908 the Republican
candidate received q clear majority OF
1851. In the year 1910 the Democratic
party nominated q most remarkable
man. Hon. w. G.. Brown. He carried
the district by 1884. but everyone un-
derstood that Il was a victory for
Brown and not a victory for the Demo
cratic party. The largest Republican
county in the district, Preston. Is usu-
ally good for the Republican majority
OF from 1000 to $500. Instead OF It's
giving a majority against Mr.. Brown,
he was related to so many people. con-
nected with so many people, and per-
sonally so popular there, as he was
here to the time OF his death, that he
carried that county by a substantial
majority and won his election.
"In the year 1912 that district gave
Mr.. Roosevelt 1894 votes and Mr..
Taft 1O,420 votes, making combined
opposition vote OF 25,354 to 21,955
given for Mr.. Wilson, making Re-
publican majority Of 1899. Notwith-
standing that, Mr.. Brown was elected
to congress.
"In that same year, Notwithstanding
the fact that Governor Hatfield ran
considerably behind his ticket, he car
ried that district by 2463.
I'm 1914 Mr.. Brown had plurality
of 1861 votes and the Progressive vote
was 1896, leaving Mr.. Brown with a
majority OF only 65. In the county OF
Preston, where Mr.. Brown lived, In
1908 the Republican majority was 2141
on the vote for representative in con-
gress. In the election which has re-

was beaten in Preston county by only
HOO, and so there was In the district
a substantial Democratic gain in all
the counties ecept probably two.
"One of them was the county OF
Berkeley, where Mr.. Bowers, the Re
publican candidate lived, and l have
no doubt in the world that when the
other house of congress comes to In
| vestigate that question It will find
ample reasons why that county hap
! pened to slump to prevent the Demo
cratic party from getting the splendid
advantage which they would have had
by virtue of the popularity of the pres
emit Democratic administration.
"In other words, Mr.. President, II
! can be easily shown that the official

ond West Virginia District would con.
tinus until the November elections.
The facts are, he showed. that 1t was
tho kind OF slump which viii keep the
Democratic party in power by a sub
stantial majority. Previous elections
show that the district Is normally Re
publican by about 1000. while in the
recent election this majority was re
duced on the face OF the returns to
494, without taking account Of the un
fair means employed in two counties
to exc out this 'meager majority.
"In the year 1902" said Senator
Chiffon. "the Republicans carried that
district by 1341. In the year 1904 the
majority was much in excess Of 1000;
it was 10000 and something like three
or four hundred. In 1906 the Demo

vote In two counties In that district
was not fair expression OF the senti
ments OF the voters, and that 1T least
unfair means were used to exc out the
meager majority Of about 400. which
Is now being parNded as sign OF q
Democratic slump. The truth Is that
even II II were fairly obtained. the
returns from the Second West Virginia
publican majorities-a district nor
mally Republican by over 1000 went
Republican by about 400"
