THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

Continuing to grow in strength, Presi-
dent Wilson, in the final straw ballot of the
New York Herald, forged ahead of Hughes
with popular majority in the quarter of
a million votes actually cast.
The election, however is almost upon a
dead center, with 1872 per cent of the votes
cast for Hughes, and 1872 per cent for Will
son. In the first week of the straw ballot
Hughes received SIG per cent and Wilson
AGA.
The solid south will give Wilson la
electoral votes; and other states in which
fifty per cent or more of the ballots were
for Wilson, total 1913 more, which indicates a
total vote for Wilson of 307 or forty-one
more than enough to spare
States giving fifty per cent or more to
Hughes have an electoral strength of 1872.
With Pennsylvania 1857 and Utah az add
ed the total is 224
# besides, the Republicans should gain
Illinois (29) and Michigan (15), their plu-
rality would be 268 electoral votes, or more
than enough to elect
According to the New York Herald fore
cast, however, Illinois will go democratic.
The states that will decide the election,
says the Herald, "are New York, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and
Minnesota" with total electoral vote OF
1913. New York will probably go Republi-
can (45), as will also Indiana (15); and
Illinois (2O) has been accounted for; mar
rowing down the crucial states to Ohio
Michigan Wisconsin, and Minnesota, with
total of 81 votes" These, according to
the Herald, should go democratic.

State Press Comment
Never a Word

Never a Word
When w. v. Knott, democratic can
didate for governor of Florida, spoke
at a public meeting at Kissimmee,
a few days ago, s. j. Cats, indepen-
dent candidate for the same office,
was in the audience.
During his campaign, Cats has
frequently stated that he had knowl-
edge that Cardinal Gibbons had sent
sums of money to Florida to help to
defeat the Independent candidate. At
some places he has placed the amount
at $4,000, at others as high as $780,
900, his estimate has never been twice
alike in any of his speeches.
Mr.. Knott challenged Cats to give
his authority for his statement, and
the Independent candidate, mouthly
always when in his own crowd, had
not word to say, practical ac-
knowledgement that he had no au-
thority for his claim and that there
was no truth in it.
The only time during this campaign
that this independent boiling candi-
date had an opportunity to answer
his opponent, he declined to take adj
vantage of the opportunity, and for
a very good reason.-Miami Herald.

Not a Democrat

Cats is running both as an indie
pendent and as the candidate of the
prohibition party. This let's him out
Of even any prtense of being a DEM
ocratic candidate, and as he has slur-
red President Wilson and said that
If he voted for him he would shut his
eyes and hold his nose while doing SO,
it looks like he doesn't claim to be a
democrat, even in national politics.
Such a man has no right to the vote
of any democrat in Florida.-Gads-
den County Times.

No Surprise


1t is no surprise to Senator Fetch
er's friends to know that he is going
to vote for Knott and the balance of
the regular democratic ticket, says
the Ocala Banner Among other
things the senator says: at is my
firm conviction that it is the duty of
democrats to support the nominees of
the party as determined by the SUI
preme court of Florida, the final ac-
ton of the state canvassing board
and endorsed by the state democratic
executive committee. The supreme
court and the state committee are
the final and only tribunals to de-
termine disputes as to the results of
primary elections, and their conclus-
ions are binding upon the party. The
life of the democratic party depends
upon the ready acceptance by every
democratic candidate and voter of
the results of the primary election
as determined by the existing law
and the highest authority of the par
ty. Not only the success but the
continued existence of the present
system of white democratic primar-
les depends upon the loyalty of the
members of the organization. -

AMERICAS FIGHT IS FOR RIGHT OF
 MAN TO AID MAN
Secretary Lane at Brown Commencement Says We're
 Just Discovering Country

Providence, R. T.. June 21-The American spirit is against war not because Americans are afraid to fight but because they are too busy with other enterprises more important than war, Franklin K. Lane, Secre- tary of the Interior, declared in his address at Brown University today. Charles E. Hughes, Republican nom inee for President, was another senior guest of the university.
 'HThe spirit of America is against war not because we have grown cow ardly and fear death,'' said MT. Lane, nor because we have grown habby and love softness, nor even because we have become conscious converts to the Prince of Peace. But we in America have something larger to do. We are discovering our country. We have no time for war; We are doing som ething so much more important. We are at work. That is the greatest of all adventures. When war comes to democracy it comes because we are not allowed peacefully to work.

Tonsorial Taxes to Remain Same; Barbers
 Vote For More Pay

For the. second time within three months, the Journeymen Barbers' union has rejected a prop osition to increase the price of a shave from 1 5 cents to 20 cents and a haircut from ,25 cents to 35.

 The union voted to increase the minimum wage by $1.
 William Rosenbaun, president of the union, said today: This prop osftfon was brought up three months ago and in my capacity as president I ruled that raising the price of a shave or haircut wasn't within our Jurisdiction. I thought it was a matter for the employers. I explain ed then that believed the move had been instigated by two three bosses.
 ''The issue was again raised, how ever, and last night we put it to a vote. The union was practically unanimous in rejecting it.''
