Leads New England State by 63
. Votes.—Gains In California with 17
Precincts Missing.—Hughes Drops
In Minnesota, but Still Maintains
Safe Lead.—Wilson ia a majority
President.
New York.—On the returns up to
date President Wilson has received
8,508,085 votes and Mr. Hughes 8,090,-
951. Mr. Wilson's popular plurality
is therefore 417,134. He is a majority
president, which he was not when he
went into office. In 1912 he received
6,293,419 votes.
It has been said that Mr. Hughes re- |
ceived the votes of the most populous
states of the Union and Mr. Wilson
that of the less populou. There is not
so mucch difference as might be ex
pected. The states which voted for
Mr. Hughes had, according to the last
census, 45,901,739 inhabitants. Those
which voted for Mr. Wilson had 45,-
737,643. The difference in Mr. Hughes'
favor is 164,096.
The latest returns from the Close
states show the following results:
In California Wilson is leading by
3,431 votes, with a few scattering pre
cincts missing; in Minnesota, where
some of the militiamen's votes have
been counted, Hughes is still ahead
by 286 votes with 27 districts missing;
in North Dakota, with 14 districts miss
ing, Wilson leads by 963 votes; New
Hampshire, where the count has been
completed, gives Wilson a plurality of
63 votes.
From the reports of leading corre
spondents in the different states on
the influences which brought about
Mr. Wilson's election R is possible to
get a ctear idea of the part played by
the different group "votes" of which
so much was said before election, and
of the reasons wWich moved great
bodies of voters to the decision they
reached.
Progressives and the Women.
Two classes of voters, and two only,
accomplished the result. They were
not the German-Americans, the labor
vote, or any of the groups standing for
special interests. They were the Pro
gressives and the women.
The split made in the Republican
party in 1910, which became a break
In 1912, was not mended at Chicago.
The dispatches now in the hands of j
the papers Indicate no probability of j
its being mended until the cause for j
It Is taken away. From the Hudson
River to the Mississippi, the bolters i
of 1912 were largefy satisfied with
Hughes, but to the East and West of
those boundaries, especially to the
West, they were not. And It was the
West that decided the election.
In New York anil. Illinois the breach
was apparently healed; there is no
sign of anything to the contrary, and
the same thing seems true of the
states that generally follow the leader
ship of these two. That, however,
was as far as Colonel Roosevelt was
able to bring about a reunion.
The Progressives of Kansas, Wash- 1
Ington, California and the other West
ern States have again defeated a Re
cause the other wing of the party was
In control and made the nomination. I
Minnesota and Wisconsin voted for
Hughes, but both have show that they
are as progressive as ever, Minnesota
by accepting him so narrowly and
Wisconsin by LaFo!lette's victory.
The woman vote and the Progres
slve vote telescope each other, for In
the critical states the women who
turned the election were largely Pro
gressives. But the women voted a*
women, too. The reports from the
states where women vote Show that
the dream of solidifying woman as a
sex and swinging her vote this way
and that at the order of female politi
cal leaders Is shattered forever. But
tRe women did make up their minds
as women In many Western tSates,
and TOt&d without regard either tc
how the women politicians bade them
or to how their own men folks voted.
Buddhist Custom.
It Is said that a custom peculiar to
Buddhists is that of wandering about
the country with hammer and chisel
and carving holy symbols upon rocks
by the wayside.
Superlative Good Thing.
It is a good thing to be rich,'and a
good thing to be strong, but it is a bet
ter thing to be beloved of many friends.
—Euripides.
GRAHAM, N. C., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 1916
■SIDE MIL R.
STRIKE NEW DANGER
UNITED 6TATEB IS AGAIN FACING
PROELEMS WITH RAILROAD
MEN.
CAN NOT REACH AGREEMENT
Application of Eight-Hour Law Still
Unsolved After Important Confer
ence.—See Different Meaning of
Provisions.
Washington.—Danger of a nation
wide railroad strike, which was be
lieved to have been avortt'd by the
passage of the Adamsou elsht-hour
law, has not entirely it
developed here when representatives
oi the railroads and the four brother
hoods, comprising 400,000 employes,
failed to reach an agreement as to the
proper application of the new law.
The stumbling block, both sides ad
mitted, was the existing mileage ay*,
tem of compensation.
The announcement of the latest
deadlock between the railroads and
their employes came at the conclus
ion of an all-day conference between
the national conference committee
of the railways" and the brotherhood
chiefs, which had been arranged In
September.
"We met," said Ellshi Lee, chair
man of the railroad managers and
the conference, "for the purpose of
exchanging ideas on the application
and operation of the Adamson law.
We failed to reach an agreement and
we are not certain that another meet
ing will take place."
William G. Lee, president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
spokesmen for the employes In the
absence of A. B. Garretson, of the
Order of Railway Conductors, declar
ed in a statement that in the event
of evasion by the railroads of the
Adamson law, summary action would
be taken by the brotherhoods. He
said that the strike order which was
directly responsible Tor the law, was
still in effect and the brothorhoods
would not hesitate to enforce It if the
occasion warranted It.
"The brotherhoods asked for this
conference," said Mr. Lee. "At the
morning session we discussed the ap
plication of the law and found that
there was no basis upon which we
could possibly agree. Another set
back, besides the elimination of the
mileage system, was the deteermina
tion of the railroads to continue their
suits to determine the constitution
ality of the law."
PRESIDENT IS BUSY
AGAIN IN USUAL WAY.
Asks With Much Concern About Com
plexion of Next House.
Washington.—President Wilson was
back at his desk in the White House,
after an absence of 2 months, pre
pared to take up important foreign
problems which have been held in
abeyance pending tbe election as well
as domestic questions. These in
cluded the German submarine ques
tion, tlje Mexican problem and a num
ber of Federal appointments.
The President was expected to con
sider first the submarine situation
which is admittedly serious. A sum
mary of re\ent developments in Ger
man submarine warfare, prepared by
the state department, was ready to be
laid before him and, in addition, he
prrobably soon will confer again with
Ambassador Gerard on the situation.
The President has not even consid
ered the question of changes in his
cabinet, according to Administration
officials, who characterize as prema
ture reports that he bad decided on
such changes. It is possible, how
ever, that one or two cabinet officers
may not remain after March 4.
The President asked first for the
latest Information on the political
make-up ot the House of Representa
tives in the sixty-fifth Congress. He
was told indications from present re
turns were that the Republicans
would have 217 members and tbe Dem
ocrats 212 with six members of other
parties.
"WONT DIBCUBS 1920"
MR. ROOSEVELT BAYS.
Oyster Bay.—Aroused by the politi
cal significance attached by various
politicians and newspapers to the visit
of George W. Perkins to Sagamore
Hill, Colonel Roosevelt expressed him
self definitely In regard to that 1920
sentiment.
"I want it clearly understood," ho
said, "that no amount of visits or talk
can induce me to speak of the 1920
nominations.. I won't discuss pipe
dreams."

Reeount California's Vote.
Ssn Frsnclsco.—The official count
of California's vote in the Presidential
election began Tuesday, and steps
have been taken not only to expedite
the work but to Insure Its accuracy.
Both the Republican and Democratic
State Central Committees hsve en
gaged checkers and attorneys to scrut
inise the count of each tally, sheet,
and all preparations were reported
complete.
REPUBLICANS WILL WAIT
FOR THE OFFICIAL COUNT
Will Not Concede Wilson's Election
Until All the Doubtful States
Are Csnvasssd.
New York —lt msy be Thanksgiving
before Charles E Hughes sends Presl
dent Wilson a telegram of congratula
tion. That Is. It may be Thanksgiving
If the Republican candidate remains In
the hands of the Republican National
Committee. For Chairman WUlcox
said that he would make no conces
sions before the vote in all the doubt
ful states had been "officially canvass
ed." It was explained that this meant
when the secretary of elate In each of
the doubtful states had cert I fled to the
results. While the official canvass
atarted In California Monday, it does
not start In Nofth Dakota until Nov.
f 17, This will take from a week to ten
days, and Thanksgiving comes this
year on Nov. 30. When Chairman
Wlllcox was asked for an estimate of
the time to elapse before the Republi
can leaders would decide who had
been elected president, he said he
would make no estimate. He did eay
that he regardd ten days as a "safe
minimum" of the time to elapse.
Mr. Hughes had nothing to sajr. He
was asked for a statement as he re
turned to the Hotel Astor from an auto
mobile ride but would make no com
ment. He has let It be known that he
I win make no public announcement of
the result of last Tuesday's election
until the official figures In the doubt
ful states, Minnesota, New Mexico,
North nakota and especially CaJI
fomla has been made a matter ot
reoord.
