A Majority of Millions.

Ever since election, November 2,
keen interest has been felt In the mat
ter Of the actual plurality cast for
Harding, which was clearly the larg-
ct ever given any candidate in the
history OF the country. Compilations
now made, practically complete. show
that this expectation was amply justi'
fed. The total vote. it now appears,
was about 27.00o.o00 an increase of
about S,500,0O0 over the total Of 1916.
While a certain part of this is at
tributable to the natural increase of
population. the greater percentage Of
the increase was due unquestionably
to the national acknowledgment Of the
women. Yet the total vote did not
reach the figure that was by some
forecast, on the basis Of universal
woman suffrage.
eHarding's vote, as far as 1t has
been now recorded officially, was 49,
182,2S9. The vote given to Cox was
$50, or a republican plurality of
7,039,539. This Is far and away by
millions the largest plurality ever
given in a national election. But more
remarkable still is the fact that an
actual majority Of more than $3.50, 900
was cast for Harding against all other
candidates combined.
Tho Harding vote was about 60 per
cent Of all the votes cast November 2.
It was an increase Of nearly 1850. 900
over the republican vote of 1915. which
vas S.l38,221- Thus the Harding vote
Of 1890 was very nearly double that
Of the Hughes vote In 1916. On the
other hand. On the present computa-
ton. the democratic vote this year was
only 12,144 more than that Of 1916.
Counting the natural increase Of pop
ulstion and woman suffrage it will be
seen that relatively the democratic
vote shrank from that cast four years
ago.
Shortly after the election it was
claimed TOR the socialists that they
had east nearly 100000 votes for
Debs. AZ the figures are now recorded
they fell short Of that considerably.
The socialist vote. ~ thus Tar counted,
was s4l.S77. ~ against 5S5113 in
1915. Returns are lacking from eight
states and these may bring the total
mp to q round million. The other
minor parties poIled relatively small
votes. the, farmer laborites leading
With about $4,000 and the prohibit
tionists next with about 200.oo0. The
vote cast November was about 25h
Per cent Of the total population Of the
country-of course. the highest per.
centage ever known. The highest
previous percentage Of votes to popu-
lation was that Of the election Of 1895.
when slightly over 20 per cent Of the
people went TO the polls.

Harding and Harvey.

A Pennsylvania admirer Of Col.
George Harvey suggests him for the
English mission. The suggestion is
probably based upon three things.
Q). Col. Harvey stands very close
to Mr.. Harding. He was prominent
in the consultations at Chicago which
led to Mr.. Harding's nomination.
(2). He is travelled man Of light
and leading. a writer Of force, a poll.
tician Of experience. and with a wide
acquaintance in both the political
and the literary circles in London.
90. He has the means to support the
place. He is a prosperous publisher,
as was the late Walter Hines Page
when appointed to the London post.
This suggestion suggests a might.
have-been. Col. Harvey found Wood
row Wilson first. Before William Nc
Coombs, or William G. McAdoo, or Col.
House was attracted to Mr.. Wilson,
Col. Harvey had assessed him as of
presidential size, and set about max
ing him the leader Of the democratic
party. And yet after Mr.. Wilson had
become the democratic leader and
President those three men were recog-
nixed in . conspicuous way while Col.
Harvey was ignored. The French mis-
sion WIS offered to Mr.. McCoomhs. Mr..
McAdco was made Secretary Of the
Treasury, while Col. House. with a
rowing commission, became . world
figure.
Il WAS all along Of that unfortunate
visit which Col. Harvey. in company
with Henry Watterson, paid to Mr..
Wilson. when the latter. In reply to a
question. frankly told the colonel that
the colonel's support was not advanc-
Ing his, Wilson's, interests. Until
then Col. Harvey, and not Mr.. Nc
Coombs, nor Mr.. McAdoo. nor Col.
House, would have been the best bet
In any speculation about who would
profit most in the way Of ONCE and
honors in case Mr.. Wilson came into
the kingdom Of President Of the

POLITICS AT HOME

In the great cities there is difficulty

Stiii. politics has a lure. too. AL
though young man as politicians
are reckoned. Gov. Smith has. in one

years Of official life. He has given
satiafactory account Of himself in
every place he has filed. He is leav-
Ing the governorship with record
which even his opponents praise. He
was defeated for reelection by less
than seventy thousand votes. while
the democratic candidate for I'resi.

votes.
This shows both a taste and q tai

The Absent Guests.

Herbert Hoover asks the American
people to give $33,000,000 to care for
the children Of Europe during the
coming year. These children need
food. If it is not supplied to them
by means Of this endeavor under Mr..
Hoover's auspices many OF them will
die. The request, therefore. that is
made Of the people Of this country Is
to save these children, innocent vic.
Tins Of the war, who are in no wise
responsible for the disaster, and whose
lives are now at stake In consequence
of the devastation Of conflict and the
disruption of industry and the de-
struction Of all means Of sustenance.
A gift of $40, it is estimated, will
support one Of these children. Who
ever gives that amount can be assured
that every penny Of 1t will go for the
object stated. the purchase Of food.
An organization of remarkable eff
cheney has been effected under Mr.
Hoover's craftsmanship, insuring max
imum results. Those who give to this
fund are guaranteed that there will
be no wastage and no diversion Of
resources. There il no great ''over-
head" This is a 100 per cent charity.
When the war broke in Europe q
little more than six years ago Herbert
Hoover was near at hand and soon
found himself assigned to the dinicult
task of getting supplies to the Belgian
people. caught in the war tolls. His
discharge Of this duty was such as to
cause the American people to be proud
of him as one Of them. Immense sums
were placed at his disposal and were
used with a maximum Of benefit for
the war sufferers. Now that he asks
in the name of the starving children
of Europe for another appropriation
the American dollars will doubtless
flow to him in abundance and once
again the people Of this country win
demonstrate their confidence in his
capacity and his integrity and his ef-
fciency by giving every penny asked.
Mr.. Hoover speaks Of these children
in Europe whose lives depend upon
American bounty al the 'tabsent
guests" He asks that places be made
for them at the Christmas dinner
tables Of the American people. That
means that by Christmas day all the
money he estimates as necessary for
their sustenance should be subscribed
in full. -
Washington has been assigned no
'"'quota." 1t II asked to do its best.
It surely win do 10, for II shares the
American peoples confidence in Mr..
Hoover's statement that this money
Is necessary and that everything given
by them viii be applied in the fullest
degree to the work Of actual relief.
