r Will political history repeat itself?
There are SO many points Of similar:

the Hayes-Tiden contest that the his
tory of the latter memorable struggle
has renewed interest.
For days after the election Tilden
was given the election by the imports
ant New York journals, but Republi-
can headquarters contended that
Hayes would have the electoral vote.
Tilden, Democrat, had carried New
York. Indiana, New Jersey and Con-
necticut and the solid south, by the
Democrat count.
But the Republican headquarters
claimed the election of Hayes by one
electoral vote. based on the belief that
the state of South Carolina, Florida
and Louisiana had gone Republican.
These states were in the transition
period Negro government was giving
way to white control, and elections
were VIGOROUSLY fraudulent. The ques-
ton arose how far it would be just to
go behind the returns of the various
state canyassing boards.
There was considerable bitterness.
Fraud was generally charged on both
sides
Finally. solution was arrived at by
the creation Of the Electoral commits

Real Service

The Tribune's thousands of read
ers throughout the state have receiv
ed service in the present election
which has been without a peer in the
northwest. The Tribune's returns
have been honest, accurate, anthem
tic, consistent and complete. No ef-
fort has been made to color them.
and Tribune readers have received
real news of the election upon which
sound judgment of the ultimate re-
suits could be based.
Practically every daily newspaper
in the state with the exception Of the
Tribune gave North Dakota on, We'd
nesday morning to Hughes, and a ma
jority OF them hailed him as the next
president. The Tribune gave the re-
turns complete to press time; stated
the truth as to the Wilson Hughes
race in North Dakota and the nation,
and predicted Wednesday morning
that if the president maintained his
percentage OF gain. he would carry
the state by move than 1000, which
he has done. :
The Tribune, believing its readers
entitled to facts, and not to news
manufactured to fit factional senti-
ment, announced Wednesday morning
that Wilson was in the lead, and
each regular edition since has shown
an advantage for Wilson Only in
one extra edition. when on the face
of returns Hughes election seemed
possible. if not probable, has. the
Tribune swerved one icta from it's
original contention that the trend was
favorable to Wilson.
From the hour when the first local
returns began to come in, the Trib-
une has had constantly at work
trained force of skilled accountants.
whose interesting tabulations have
borne up under the most critical
scrutiny The Tribune's statistical
tables. its analyses and its predic-
tons have been based on actual fact
and careful survey OF conditions.
and they have been verified in every
particular. 4
Tribune readers have received real
news throughout the election They
have not been fed editorial opinions,
as news. holstered up to conform with
local sentiment. The Tribune, from
first to last, has consistently kept
faith with it's public, and it has given
them a service which has been en-
jcyed only by a few of the larger
metropolitan cities in the northwest.

Theatre in Evening; Holds

New York, Nov. 9.-Charles f.
Hughes spent today much as he did
yesterday, studying election returns.
The nominee and his wife remained in.
doors, except for a a two-hour motor
ride, in the afternoon, but decided to
relax the vigilance of the watch to-
night and went to a theater.
For the first time in three nights
the nominees personal staff was given
an opportunity to get a full nights
rest. Mr.. Hughes dismissed them all
when he went to the theater and smil.
ingly instructed them not to return
until tomorrow
Mr.. Hughes day was punctuated by
conferences with William r. Wilcox,
the Republican national chairman,
George r. Wickersham, Everett Colby
and George W. Perkins of the Repub-
lican campaign committee. Mr.. Viii.
cox assured the nominee of his con-
victiOns that full returns would show
the success of the Republican ticket,
To this Mr.. Perkins added assurances
that California, New Mexico and Min
nesota undoubtedly would be found in
the Hughes column after the count
had been completed.
Mr.. Wickersham declined to COM
ment on his visit to the nominee, as
did Mr.. Colby. The former said h.
was present merely as volunteer
helper" Mr.. Wilcox, on leaving, said
there probably would be recounts in
all the states, where the vote was
close. and he would do all that was
necessary to Safeguard our interests"
Another subject mentioned at the
conference with the nominee was the
possibility that California might divide
its electoral vote as in 1912. At that
hour the returns from the state were.
closer than at any previous time of the
day.
That contingency, however. was re.
garded as a possibility rather than
probability.

The Fairy Who Knows Everything
has whispered something in my ear
a very lovely secret indeed. The
Fairy Who Knows Everything is a
very beautiful fairy. She has won
derful big blue eyes, and golden
curls, and pink and white complex
ion, and many persons might think
she was beautiful, exquisite doll,
if one did not see her fairy wings
peeping out from her cloud of golden
hair.

loves little children and she mas wnis-
pered to me, and she has told me to
tell you very, very positively, little
girls and boys, and big boys and girls.
with the heart of childhood beating
warm and true, that this is to be the
most wonderful Christmas for the
children III all the world, and espec-
tally in this country which God has
blessed with His gracious gift of
peace.
Last night Jack Frost came from
the far north and crept into some
homes where there are little, little
boys and girls, and he laid his hand
upon then, and whispered harsh
