which had strayed from the upIands
on to Gwithian sands we're caught
there by the tide and ultimately
carried into st. Ives bay during the
night. There the floating flock was
observed from the st. Ives fishing
boats, whose crews, never having
seen sheep, took them for some new

secure them both by hooks and lines
and by netting. Those they secured
they brought home triumphantly

The remarkable feature of the re-
turns is their sectional character. The
South is for Wilson, and that goes
without saying. But with the West
also for the President, the East over
whelmingly votes against him. 1t is
the West that decided the election,
whatever the final result. In forecast
imp the election of Hughes Republi-
cans pinned their faith to experience
mo president was ever defeated VINO
carried New York, New Jersey and
Indiana. the three typical doubtful
states" But good many traditions
were overturned by Tuesdays cleo
ton. Such a revolutionary vote cannot
be due TO ordinary causes, OF course,
and when we look for what may be
extraordinary causes, we naturally
first and last think Of the world war.
Whatever other factors entered into
the Western verdict, the decisive one
must be this Of the Notwithstanding
war in Europe. Other arguments bal
anced Off fairly well. or turned the
scales strongly in Hughes favor. But
this one counterbalaneed all the rest.
The West gave remarkable majorities
for Wilson from the point Of view that
well enough had better be let alone
High prices no doubt entered into 1t,
but the decisive thing was that by
hook or by crook the United States
has kept out Of the embodiment Of
the worlds war, and as that above
everything in the present situation
was what the West desired, il would
take no chances on what change Of
administration might possibly bring
about. Republicans we're handicapped
by such situation. No doubt the
best fight was made that could be
made. The state elections everywhere
indicate that the country is Republic
can as much as 1t ever was. What
ever the final result, il is no defeat
for the Republican party, nor for
Gov. Hughes. Four years from new,

Booze got tremendous blow. 1t
was excluded from territory more ex-
tensive than that of some of the
great nations of Europe. But most
significant of all was the break in the
ranks of the big industrial states.
Michigan went dry! The liquor in
terests centered their warmest fight
in that state. 1t was estimated they
spent upwards a million dollars here.
Long ago they conceded among them
selves that they could not hold the
states of the West and South. The
South would eventually all become
dry by the votes of the whites, who
realized that, for self-protection, they
must put booze beyond reach of the
negro population, and the South is
now almost solidly dry. The Western
states, with the majority Of popula-
ton living outside the cities, were GER
tain to join the rapidly widening dry
territory. The great manufacturing
states east of the Mississippi and
north of the Ohio, with their big fac
tory cities. were the legitimate king
dom Of John Barleycorn, and there
was not a dry state in this region ex-
cept Maine. The brewers and distil-
lers realized that if this territory
should be broken into by the drys
their business would begin to totter,
because capital would become fright
ened and withdraw its investments
from breweries and distilleries. 1t was
a hot fight in Michigan, therefore.
The drys got powerful ally in Billy
Sunday. In the last eight weeks he
gave his famous booze sermon in
twenty different cities of Michigan.
The outcome shows that the industrial
states viii now be falling in line with
the farming states TO exclude liquor.
Missouri was regarded by the liquor
men as another battle ground of i'm
mense Importance. IL projected into
the prohibition territory west of the
Mississippi like wet bay into dry
desert; but because Of the great brew
cries and tremendous wet vote of st.
Louis the liquor interests expected to
hold it in line. The liquor forces Of
the Nation will get shock when they
see Kansas City going dry, and wet

set all calculations. It might not
have been decisive if the West had a
poor opinion of Mr.. Wilson as presi-
dent, but when he had been on trial
four years and things continued to
be prosperous. the West did not stop
to argue how the prosperity in any
way related to what he had done, and
indeed the country has been educated
always to attribute the kind Of times
it happens to have directly to the
party that is in. The West was fair
~ satisfied that Wilson could be
trusted four years more. Why, with
this feeling in the West, and clear to
the Pacific, the East put up fully as
strong Hughes majority is a mys-
terry for political wiseacres TO worry
over, and make clear if they can. 1t
is puzzling verdict, taking the coun-
try over, and all the more so, con-
sidering that labor, supposed to be for
Wilson, is strongest in the region
where Hughes got most of his cleo
toral votes. One thing sooms certain,
the East does not think about the war
as the West thinks. 1t is strong for
preparedness, while the West is not.
1t is perhaps even in favor of taking
hand to help the allies out. 1t is
certainly more impressed than the
West with the complaints of returning
tourists abroad that Europe is
ashamed of the United States.
Not in this generation has there
been an election of such uncertainty
as that of last week. Usually the
first returns in few pivotal states
early in the evening forecast the out
come. Ii was that way four years
ago, and in the Taft, Roosevelt, Nc
Kinley and second Cleveland cleo
lions. Clevelands defeat in 1888,
while surprise, was indicated by the
vote against him in New
York. Ii is necessary to go back to
1884 to find the election mixup that
'xists today. Except the disputed
lection of 1876, which was in doubt
until settled by the electoral commits
ion, the first election of Cleveland
odds the record in prolonged uncer-
ainty. The early returns gave Cleve-
and all the Southern states and Con-
ecticut, New Jersey and Indiana.
Elaine carried all the other Northern
tates except New York. The vote
1ere was so close that both sides
aimed it for several days. The lead
waved back and forth and finally I
ave the state to the Democrats by t
plurality of LAG in a total vote G
nearly 100000. This outcome was S
lie to the disaffection of the New
ork Mugwumps, many of whom were
o strongly anti-Democratic to bring
TO vote for Cleveland, but I

. John of Kansas, the Prohibition

ork had given Neal Dow only fiji t

Notice to Subscribers.
CURRENT COMMENT.

The national committees spent
nearly four million dollars TO elect a
president. But do not despair, gen
tie reader. and pronounce our form
of government fairure. A tax OF
four cents isn't so much after all to
pay for the privilege of selecting a
national chief executive-especially
since nearly all that tax is paid by
few rich men. Democracy failure
and cheat and too expensive? Non
sense. You never examined the ex-
