Hf, New Party Strength.
Ht The strength of the new Progre3-
H 8ivo party In its first line-up against
Wt the older parlies and the disappcar-
H. ance of the Republican majority for
K the first time In ten years and the
HF first time in the history of the state
Hi on a presidential year were the out-
.H standing features of the state elec-
1'H on iu Vermont yesterday.
H: It was appareut early in the even-
9t 'ng that there had been no election
:B by the people, although a sulflclent
tJ ' number of Republican representatives
K were successful to seem to Insure the
Bv choice of Alton M. Fletcher of Caven-
Mm dish. For many years political stu-1
IB dents have pointed out that any de-'
u?L. crease in the Republican majority I
. in Vermont in September below nor- j
mal of 25,000 has been followed al
'' most invariablv by the party defeat
t In the presidential fight in November.
', These majorities, v.'hich have averaced
close to 30,000 in all the state elec
tions in Vermont in Presidential years
i since 1S02, were represented today by
a bare plurality.
Republican Vote Falls Off.
: The Republican loss apparently went
in a great degree to the Progressives
. and to a somewhat lesser oxtont to
the Democrats.
The falling off In the Republican
; veto began with the first return, while
the Progressives gained all along the
line. In some cases carrying towns that
heretofore have been regarded as
strongly Republican.
Yet the disaffection from the Re
publican ranks did not extend very
far beyond the head of the ticket.
Many towns that showed strong
Progressive tendencies ?ent Republi
can representatives to the legislature,
Iso that the party leaders were early
assured of a substantial majority on
joint ballot for governor, as the fail
ure of a candidate to get a majority
at the polls throws the election into
the legislature
Progressives were greatly pleased
with the result. It was pointed out
that the party had gone into the fight
with an organization new to politics
and was forced to make up with nota
ble orators what it lacked In party
management, with Colonel Roosevelt
jE leading tho charge.
The Democratic manapors also de
rived satisfaction from the early re
I turns, showing as they did, decided
' gains over two and four years ago.
KNext Legislature Is Republican.
They also pointed out that these
pains had been made despite tho
claims of the Progressive speakers
that the latter party would recruit
k some of its strength from Democrats.
J The Prohibition and Socialist vote-
did not vary materially from former
years.
Many Republican voters claimed
that tho threatening weather contrib
uted to the falling off in the party
vote. These men stated that the reg
i istered vote of Vermont was close lo
120.000 and that had weather condi
tions bem fair the party would havo
rolled up mpre than forty thousand
for Fletcher.
Returns up to mlduight showed that
I the next legislature will contain 110
IfL Republicans, 36 Democrats and four-
m I teen Progressives and 30 Republican
I senators.
1 Congressman Frank L. Green of
' St. Albans, in the First, and Frank
Plumley of Northfiold, in the Second
(
1
'
district, wore re-elected without ma
terial opposition.
The strength of the Progressive
party and the gain of the Democrats
ocr previous elections were tho fpa
tures. Some Later Returns.
Additional returns in yesterday's
election compiled and revised today
from all but fourteen smal towns
gave for governor:
Allen Jl. Fletcher, Republican, 25,
072; Harlan R. Howe, Democrat. 19,
172; Rev. Frazer Metzcer, Progres
sive, 15,070; Clement F." Smith. 'Pro
hibitionist, 1,493; Fred V. Suiter, So
cialist, 1.0-12
The missing towns in 1910 gave:
Mead, Republican, 1.4SG; AVatson,
Democrat, 4G; Towiey, Prohibition,
3S: Ordmay, Socialist, 11.
If the proportionate gain or loss
Is maintained in the remaining towns
it is figured that the total vote in
Vermont for the three leading can
didates, will be-
Fletcher, 26,100; Howe, 20.100;
Metzger. 15.550

In addition to a sprained ankle and
a sore foot President Taft issua'erlng

Colonel Is Delighted by
Showing of Progres

Ottumwa. Iowa, Sept. !. If he had
made terms with the "bosses" at the
Republican convention, Colo. Roose
velt said today, they would have
turned to him with the presidential

Speaking at Mount Zlon, the colonel
said.
"Our. opponents did not steal the
nomination from me at Chicago last
June. They stole it from you. They
do not like me, but It is you they are
really afraid of, and they opposed me
baceuse the believed I really repre
sented you." If I had been content at
I any moment to stop lepresenting you,
the bosses would hae turned to me
with a whoop of delight.
"I occasionally run across Repub

when a gang of pirates takes posses
I sion of the ship, you've got to fight
You can't be true to the memory of
Lincoln except by refusing to go with
the Barneses and Peuroses who have
scuttled the Lincoln ship."
The colonel made his trip through
Iowa In blistering heat. The warmth
was of benefit to his throat and his
voice was in better condition. Most
of his speeches were made in small
towns. The farmers drove miles
around to hear him and his audiences
were large
Gets Vermont Newt.
On receiving partial returns from
the Vermont election Colonel Roose
velt said he was greatly pleased at the
size of the vote cast for the Progres
sive ticket.
"I am greatly relieved nt the result
in Vermont," he said "While on ray
three days' tour in that state I became
sorlously concerned lest there should
be practically no support whatever for
the Progressive Ftate ticket, because
a third or a half of the men who
spoke to me stated their belief In tho
Progressive national ticket, but did
not intend to vote the state Progres
sive tickeL This was the reason why
In my speeches I practically dropped
all the appeal for tho national ticket
and urged tho support of tho slate
ticket While in Vermont I became
convinced that tbe Progressive party
was strong and was growing stronger
and that we would In all probabllitv
carry the state in November for the
national Progressive ticket, but I also
became convinced that there was dan
ger of a complete hreakdown so far as
the state ticket vras concerned at this
time. I am relieved and pleased at
the showing that has been made."

San Francisco and I-os Angeles (
rolled up a heavy vote for the Pro

Contest among Democrats resulted
in substantial victories for the Wil

The vote yesterday was light, par

lots were casL Women especially
were Inactive with the exception of
the leaders who enthusiastically help

Johnson had represented his district
for many years and met defeat for
the first time two years ago when his

Complete returns for San Francisco
