A Review of
New Governors of States
and Probable United
States Senators.
Dr JAMES A. EDCERTON.
TII12UK was nn election held In
tho United States of America
the other day. You may hayo
heard of It. It may not have
attracted much attention In Mars or
tho Milky way, but It certainly made
sonic dent In (IiIh planet. It iras n
mixture of landslide, Armageddon, the
Judgment day mid a political earth
quake. An elephant and bull moose
were burled somewhere In the debris,
and a donkey and Democratic rooster I
emerged from the ruins making joyful
sounds. But to get down to cases: j
In H1J3 election there were chosen a !
president and rice president of the
United States, legislatures to chooso
thirty-five members of the United
States senate, determining the politi
cal complexion of that body, 435 mem
bers of the national house of repre
sentatives, governors In moro than
thirty states and thousands of minor
officials. In the electoral college the
Democrats have so many votes that It
sooms a shame to count them. The
senate 13 close, but the Democrats are
claiming at least fifty votes out of
xdnoty-slx, with some states yet doubt
ful. Tho house Is Democratic by near
ly 170 majority, while the Democrats
hare likewise chosen n majority of the
governors.

cate that they would have forty-nine,

still to win one in Illinois, where no
party has u majority in the legislature

In New Hampshire tho legislature
will choose the Republican candidate,
since no one had a majority in the elec
tion. In Knnsas the Oght is so close
between Capper (Itep.) and Hodges
(Dem.) that the official count will be
required to decide. Capper claims it by
53 and Hodges by DO.
In Tennessee the result was very close
between McMlllln (Dem.) nnd Hooper
(Itep.). In Delaware there was only
about 1,000 between Miller and Mon

The I'rogresslvcs claim more mem
bers than tills table shows, since some
classed as Republicans in Pennsylva
nia nud elsewhere really belong to tho
new party. It will be Impossible to
determine exactly how many there are
of these until tho new congress meets
and the members In question declare
by their caucus aillllatlons to which
party they belong.
In tho First Ohio district the fight be
tween Longworth (Rep.), son-in-law of
Colonel Roosevelt, nnd hlB Democratic
opponent wns to close that it was In
doubt for several days.
Among those who went down In the
landslide were Uncle Joe Cannon and
William B. McKinley, Taft's manager,
in Illinois; Ebenezer J. Hill in Con
necticut and other warhorses of the
Republican party. Victor J. Bergcr,
the lone Socialist member, was defeat
ed, although the Socialists throughout
the nation showed surprising gains,
practically doubling their vote. Wom
an suffrage also won four new states,
Michigan, Knnsas, Oregon and Arizona,
making ten plates in all where women
will hereafter have the ballot.

South Dakota went for Roosevelt, but
it is claimed that the electors are pledged
to Taft.
So far as mere numerical majority
goes, this is the most decisive vote In
the history of the electoral college.
ThlB is partially due to the fact, how
ever, that the college is now much
larger than ever before. "Washington
received the unanimous vote of the
electors, and Monroo all but one.
Among other decisive results In the
past may be mentioned the following
In 1832 Andrew Jackson received 21!)
electoral votes to -10 for Henry Cluy.
11 for John Floyd nnd 7 for William
Wirt. In 1840 William Henry Har
rison had 1234 to CO for Martin Van
Huron. In 1852 Franklin Pierce had
251 to 42 for General Wlnflcld Scott.
In 1804 Abraham Lincoln received 212
to 21 for General George H. McClellnn.
Grant received tremendous electoral
majorities botli times, 214 to 80 for
Horatio Seymour In 18C8 and 2S0 to 03
for several candidates following tho
death of Horace Greeley in 1872. In
1004 Theodore Roosevelt received 330
to 110 for Alton It. Parker.
Yet, notwithstanding his phenomenal
majority in electors and his great pop
ular pluralfty over either Taft or
Roosevelt, it Is ono of the anomalies
of tho situation that President Elect
Wilson received an actual minority of
the vote and possibly fell short of the
Bryan vote in 1003. Tho following ta
bio shows tho complete vote in a few
states and close approximations In the
others:

count In made in most of the states,
and until that time comes It will bo
Impossible to give the popular vote In
full. All these totals will be some
what Increased, but will retain approx
imately the same relative positions.
Comparing this vote with that of
1008, which was Taft, 7,078,003; Bry
an, 0,400,101. it is seen that Wilson is
about 140,000 short of Bryan's vote
and that the combined Taft and
Roosevelt voic Is more than 2,000 short
of Taft's vote four years ago. As al
ready stated, however, complete and
official returns may change these re
sults. Wilson's plurality over Roosevelt Is
above 2,000,000 and over Taft Is nearly
2,700,000. Roosevelt received more
than 500,000 over Taft Wilson is
1,400,000 behind the combined vote of
Roosevelt and Taft.
Other Minority Presidents.
He Is not by any means the first
president who has been elected by a
minority vote. In 1S02 G rover Cleve
land received a largo majority of the
electoral vote, but his popular vote was
5,550,018 to 5,170,103 for Harrison,
1,011,028 for Weaver (Populist), 201,
133 for Bidwell (Prohibition) and 21,-
104 for Wing (Socialist Labor). In
other words, the combined vote of oth
er candidates was 0,502,433, nearly
1,000,000 more than Cleveland.
Four years earlier Mr. Harrison won.
although he had fewer votes than Mr.
Cleveland. The figures were: Harri
son, 5,440,210; Cleveland, 5,538,233;
other candidates, 402,411. Thus Har
rison was nearly 100,000 behind Cleve
land and 500,000 short of the combined
opposition.
In tho close and exciting Cleveland
Blalne contest of 1SS4 the Democratic
candidate was ahead of Mr. Blalue,
but slightly behind the total vote of
opposing candidates. The result was:
Cleveland, 4,011,017; Blaine, 4,84S,334;
St John (Prohibition), 151.S00; Butler
(Greenback), 133,825. Thus, while
Cleveland led Bialne by 02,083. ho was
behind tho combined opposition by
222,051.
In fact, minority presidents have
been the rule. Garfield was one. lie
was a slight 7,000 ahead of nancock,
but more than 300,000 behind all op
ponents. The figures were: Garfield,
4,410,053; Hancock, 4,412,035; Weaver
(Greenback), 307,300; Dow (Pro.), 10,-
305; Phelps (AmcrJ, 707.

Grant was ahead of all other candi
dates in both his races, as was Un
coin In his second race, but In 1SS0 tho

minority. Tho figures were: Lincoln
1,800,352; Douglas, 1,375,157; Brecken
ridge, 8-15,703; Bell, 580,581. Thus the
combined opposition wns 2,810,501,
which was nearly 1,000,000 ahead of
Mr. Lincoln's vote. That was tho near
est parallel to the present election, as
the Democratic party was split then as
the Republican party Is spilt now.

Fall of a Famous Rocking Stone.
When the famous rocking stone of
Tandtl, In tho southern part of tho
province, of Buenos Aires, foil recently
from Its narrow platform on tho edgu
of a cliff Argentina lost ono of Its most
Interesting natural curiosities. Tills
great granite block was more than six
teen feet In diameter and thirteen feet
high nnd weighed about 700 tons. It
was balanced so nicely that the strong
winds from the pampas made It rock
perceptibly, and great numbers of tour
ists amused themselves by cracking
nuts and empty liottlcs under It. Yet
many years ago the tyrant Rosas with
a team of sixty oxen tried unsuccess
fully to pull It down. It Is thought
that the hard pulverized glass from tlm
thousands of broken bottles left on tho
cliff by visitors gradually wore away
the stone nnd the foundation until a
slight shifting of weight caused tho
bowlder to fall. Youth's Companion.
Vienna Coffee Houses.
The karfeehaus coffeo house Is a
Vienna institution. It ranges In equip
ment from ultra simple to elegant, but
It Is a public club where men meet for
billiards, chess, cards and coffee. "Tho
hand of progress," says n letter from
that city, "has fallen on the coffeo
house, nnd the first step toward Its de
struction has been taken. Catering to
tho taste of the foreign visitor, a now
coffee house has made its appearance.
Glass nnd marble, electric lights, a
platform for an orchestra, a booth
where one way dictate letters, nnother
where theater tickets are for sale and
uniformed messenger boys are some of
tho novelties, to say nothing of tho
American bar. But there Is no 'atmos
phere,' no billiard table and no place to
play cards. It is most beautiful and
may become popular with visitors, but
for the native It will be a cafe, never
a kaffeehaus." New York Tribune.
Modernizing the Orient.
Even the structures of the anclnnt
city of Jerusalem have changed. Where
once were crumbling walls and ancient
temples are now blocks of government
buildings. On tho site of the Jaffa
gate is a broad and Imposing avenue.
In the streets arc tramways and taxi
cabs, and tho western water cart has
supplanted tho man on foot with his
goatskin of water. In tho plains of
Sharon and on the tablelands between
Jaffa and Jerusalem steam driven
thrashing machines and self binding
reapers are at work. Water Is sup
plied by means of pumps driven by
motors, Abraham's well at Beershceba
being pumped In this fashion. Up to
date motorboats uow cross the sea of
Galileo, and a scheme Is under consid
eration whereby similar boats will ply

Alfonso In No Hurry.
Alfonso XIII. prefers St. Sebastian

tho Escurial only once, iu returning as
a child from Switzerland, and then
only for a few hours. The tombs of
the kings of Spain from tho time of
Charles V. to the present are at the
Escurial. It is destined to contain ono
day the body of Alfonso XIII. Tho
guide who accompanies strangers who
visit the Escurial explains that tho
young king has never yet visited tho
tomb that Is reserved for hltn and
adds: "The present king says: 'Oh.

TAFT'S PROCLAMATION
FIXES CANAL KATES.
Washington. President Taft has
issued a proclamation fixing tho
rates that tho foreign shipping of
the world shall pay for passage
through tho Panama canal. Tho
proclamation, made under authority
of tho canal act passed by congress
In August, established a merchant
vessel rate of $1.20 per net ton for
actual carrying capacity, with a re
duction of 40 per cent, on ships in
ballast.
American coastwise shipping was
exempted for toll payment by con
gross. It Is to this provision of the
act that Great Britain diplomatically
protested, hut no reference to tho In
cident was made in tho president's
proclamation. American naval ves
sels aro exempted without specific
mention either In tho act or procla
mation, It being unnecessary to ex
plain tho uselessness of payment
from Its navy department pocket to
the one belonging to the treasury de
partment. The rates named in the proclama
tion aro practically tho eame as
those which will ho In forco at tho
Suez canal next year.
Tho president based his declara
tion of rates upon the report and
investigation of Professor Emery It.
Johnson, of tho University of Penn
sylvania, an expert designated by
executive order for the task. The re
port has been awaited with Interest
by shipping Interests throughout the
world.
According to Professor Johnson's
report to the president, also made
public last week, the Panama canal
should bo upon a self-sustaining
basis in twenty years. It should
compete successfully with tho Suez
routo for the trafile of Europe with
South American west coast points
and with New Zealand but can not
bo expected to competo successfully
for Europe's trade to the far east.
Taking the estimates of the canal
commission for expenses of opera
tion and maintalnanco of tho canal
and for the improvements held to bo
necessary at tho end of a decade,
Professor Johnson figures that tho
rate per net ton can be reduced at
tho end of ten years to 51.00
UNION STATIONS.
Tho railways of the United States
have union stations ln 135 of tho 227
cities shown in tho census of 19 10
ns having a population of over 25,
000, and of the fifty cities ln this
list having a population of over 100
000, forty contain union stations. In
some cases it appears that tho roads
have been lavish In their provision
of unlqn stations, thirty-fivo cities
being provided with two stations en
tered by moro than ono road, eight
cities with threo such stations, two
cities, Buffalo and Cincinnati, with
four and Chicago with five.
Tiio four stations in Btmnlo aro
used by fourteen roads: tho live- ln
Chicago by twenty-six roads, and tho
four ln Cincinnati servo only ten
roads. There aro twenty-two roads
in the union station ln St. Louis, tho
largest number of roads entering ono
station in tho country. Peoria, 111
ranks secoud to St. Louis ln this
respect, with a station which serves
twelve roads. Thoro aro 112 union
stations In tho country used by only
two roads, comparing with ninety
one used by three or moro.
Tho geographical location of tho
cities having union stations is indi
cated by the fact that there aro as
many cities ln tho States of Now
York, Pennsylvania and Illinois
which contnin union stations as ln
all the States west of tho Mississip
pi River. The Stato of Now York
leads ln this respect, having fifteen
cities with union stations. Pennsyl
vania Is a closo second with twolvo
cities. Tho ahovo figures show that
tho extent to which American rail
ways havo gono In combining their
station facilities is greater than Is
commonly realized.
