Democrats Now Have 412 Electoral Votes:

T. R. JN POSITION OF POWER
New York, Nov. 6. The-latest returns from yesterday's -election
show that Wilson and Marshall have earned at least thirty-seven
States, with a total of 412 electoral votes; that Roosevelt has carried
'eix States, with an electoral vote of 104, and that Taft has carried
three, and perhaps iour, States, with only twelve or fifteen votes in
the Electoral College.
Aside, from the overwhelming sweep of the Democratic nominees,
the most interesting feature of the result is the capture by Roosevelt
of the election machinery in almost all the States of the solid South
and in many of those in the North in which he took either first or
second place. New York and Connecticut aretxceptions,
HEAM SECOND PARTY.
In a large majority of the States he is second, and this will put
him at the head of the second political party in the nation and give
him a power wielded by no leader save the President himself. As
the count proceeded to-day, Iowa, Kansas, and Minnesota were, found
to be wavering between Wilson and Roosevelt, with the former slightly
in the lead in all three. Placing these and Wyoming and South Da
kota, where the vote is close, in
the doubtful column, Wilson has
387 certain votes in the Electoral
College, Roosevelt 89, and Taft 12.
The control of the House of Represen
tatives by a majority of 100 or more
was early established. That the United
States Senate, held by the Republicans
by the narrow margin of 9 votes, also
will be Democratic after March 1. there
U little doubt. Colorado, Kansas, Ore
con, and Tennessee have elected Demo
cratic legislatures and will replace Re
publicans with Democrats. Colorado will
send two new senators to Washington
next J ear. Returns from Montana and
Xovada at a late hour seemed to favor
the election of two additional Democrats
to the Senate.
Cannon In Defeated.
In tho latest news from Illinois it was
found that not only had "Uncle, Joe"
Cannon been im ept to defeat by the
Rooseielt vote, but that William B. lie
Klnley, Mr. Taft's manager, who made
a bitter pre-conventlon fight upon the
colonel had also been beaten. The.Kooje
velt plurality In Illinois dwindled through
tr dav, but fnal returns' Rjrvje him the
State safely, although Edward F. Dunne,
formerly major qf Chicago, was elected
Governor by the Democrats.
Michigan, Kansas; Oregon, and Arizona
joined the ranks of the States In which
women will be given the suffrage. But
CoL Roosevelt, despite his personal In
Flstancr on a woman's suffrage plank In
the Progressi e platform, did not carry
a single State In which women were
tlng.
The vote by which Wilson was elected
President Is probably less than that re
ceived by Bryan when he was defeated
In 1WS.

SULZER WINS BY.
190,000 PLURALITY
New York, Nov. 6. Swept to victory on
the crest of Woodrow Wilson's tidal
wa-e of popularity. Representative Will
iam Sulzer has been elected governor of
New York by a plurality estimated at
from I8C00O to 190,000. This was more
than twice the size of Gov. John A. Dlx's
plurality In 1910.
New York State will have a complete
Democratic government at Albany, the
Democrats having captured both branch
es of the legislature.
The Democrats retain their control of
the Congressional election .from this
State, the figures standing twenty-six
Democrats to seventeen Republicans.
Although Oscar, Straus, the Progressive
candidate for governor, polled 65,000
votes more than Job E. Hedges, the Re
publican gubernatorial candidate In New
York, the Republicans ran second to
Representative Sulzer in the State out
side or this city.
Gov. Wilson carried New York State
by a plurality estimated In round fig
ures at. 205,500, and he carried New
City by approximately 137.000. Al
though there were a few scattered
rural districts still to be heard from
at the time these figures were com-
Jlled, the missing- ballots were too few
to have an Important bearing upon the
known result.
Princeton. N. J., Nov. 8. Woodrow
Wilson spent bis first day as President
elect as follows, briefly:
He dug his way through an avalanche
or congratulatory telegrams, dictated re
plies. Issued a statement to the news
papers on the election; took a five mile
walk with Capt. "BUT McDonald, In
the- course of which be watched the
ifootbatlpractlce.iio-fel..afaliin-ule-
grapn, pole irom tne sidewalk, permitted
Capt BUI" to tryto kill a small snake
with his cane, and the captain broke
the cane; returned home and read more
telegrams and finally retired early in
the evening.
Here Is the statement Issued by the
President-elect:
'The result has filled me with hope
that the thoughtful progressive voters
of the nation may how at last unite to
give the country freedom of enterprise
and a government released from all sel
fish and private Influences, devoted to
Justice and progress. There Is absolute
ly nothing for the honest and enlighten
ed business men of the country to fear.
No man whose business Is conducted
without violation of the right of free
competition and without such private
understanding and secret alliances as
Molate the principle of our law and the
policy of all wholesome commerce and
enterprise need fear either Interference
or embarrassment from the administra
tion. Our hope and purpose Is now to
bring all the free forces of the nation
Into active and Intelligent co-operation
ai d to give to our prosperity a freshness
and spirit and a confidence such as it
has not "had In our time."

New York. Nor. 8. Not a single dis

of the more than a score of famous
financiers and business men who dis
cussed the effect of the sweeping Demo
cratic victory on the business of the
oountry. Many were content to refer
the callers to the substantial rise In the
stock market for their answers to the
questions asked.
Such great financiers as J. P. Morgan.
Andrew Carnegie, and James J. Hill
spoke with unaccustomed optimism of
the outlook, now that one of the most ex
citing presidential campaigns of modern
times is over and its decisive results are
known.
Telegraphing from his Fifth Avenue
mansion, Andrew Carnegie had this to
say:
"No. Our republic bears a charmed
life. Both parties are anxious for Its
prosperity and will labor for this to the
best of their ability."
A representative of J. P. Morgan and
Company said: "I believe that Gov. Wil
son's great victory will enable him to
become the real leader 'of his party, ln
stea'd of being driven by It For this
reason we can see nothing that Is cal
culated to disturb the prosperity of the

istration." Hill Hits at Colonel.
James J. Hill: "I feel better over the

about a political revolution, but the
American people while desiring a change

sible conduct throughout the campaign.
I believe he will give the country a good.
safe, and sane administration, and that
the business interests have nothing to
fear."
B. F. Toakum. president of the St
Louis and San Francisco Railroad's
board: "I am very much pleased with
the election of Gov. Wilson. From my
personal acquaintance with him. I am en
tirely confident he will carry out all the
policies he has promised during the cam
paign. I am sure he is earnestly In favor
of everything he has advocated and Is en-'
tlrely competent The Democratic victory
does not by any means settle all tr-e big
economic questions of the day. In meet
ing these, the Democratic party Is on pro
bation. The whole country looks to It for
results during the next four years."
George J. Gould, expressed himself as
entirely pleased with the result or the
election and the promise It g'vea or
stimulating prosperity. "Business Is now
on a sound basis," he said, "and should
so continue. The tarts adjustment
pledged cannot be made In a day, a
month or a year, and any changes will
be so gradual that business will readily
adjust Itself to the new conditions.
Samuel P. Colt head of the Rubber
Trust: "I anticipate no Ill-effects on the
business of the country from the Demo
cratic victory. On the contrary, there are
reasons to believe that It ought to be dis
tinctly beneficial. Our Industry Is now
in prosperous condition, and we feel that
Its prosperity will be stimulated during
the next four years."
Felix M. Warburg, of Kuhn. Loeb &
Co.: "The result was fully expected, and
the country was prepared for It I con
sider It a matter for reproach with the
Progressive party that It has succeeded
In demolishing more than it has con
structed." Samuel Untermyer: "I believe the
Democratic victory will be a stimulus to
legitimate business, which is now on a
sound basis, and that it will signalize
the beginning of an enlightened policy
of constructive legislation for the cor
recting! of existing defects and abuses In
our financial economic system. That Is
necessarily a slow process, but there Is
no reason why It should not be con
ducted without disturbance to business.'
