New Hampshire was in doubt at 1 o'clock this morning. President Taft had a age other fiends to assassinate prom inent men. In our opinion, it is a pity that there is no law to hang the would-be assassin in a public square in settlement of his own crime and as a warning to others.

Topeka. Kas., Nov. 5. Returns at election shows that he has a wonderful hold on the people and that they have con fidence in him. While Mr. Roosevelt did not carry a large number of States, yet he polled a tremendous popular vote. Yesterday's Baltimore Sun, a Wil son paper, says Roosevelt made what must really be accounted a splendid fight, that the result was a great tribute to him. Continuing, the Sun says: "No other American could have done as well. WTe are sin cerely glad that that is so, be cause he is too big a man to be lost to our politics. The result shows that he will remain an im portant factor." Roosevelt organized his forces less than four months ago. What could he have done had he organized a year ago! Some predicted that this fight would be the end of Roosevelt, but, to the contrary, the people have now realized how strong he really is. Yes, Roosevelt is still a factor in poli tics, and will be heard from again. This does not include the incom- Republican, 7,474; Ferris, Democrat. 9,154; Watkins, Progressive, 5,813.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS NOT DEMOCRATIC, The vote for Simmons in the Dem ocratic Senatorial contest Tuesday shows that the Democratic party is not Democratic. If the Democratic party really stood for what it claims to stand for, Simmons would have been third instead of first in Tues day's contest. Simmons bolted his own plank in the Democratic plat form, he has not stood by his party on the tariff and many other import ant questions. That being true, it seems there can be only one conclu sion, that is, that the corporations and trusts labeled Simmons as their friend and put him over in Tuesday's primary. We believe any disinter ested person who has had experience in conducting campaigns will agree that Simmons' campaign for the nomination alone has cost somebody in the neighborhood of forty thousand dollars. ROOSEVELT'S PICTURE CHEERED There were many people in front of the News and Observer office Tuesday night to read the election re turns as they were flashed on the canvass. Taking into considertion that it was a Democratic victory, there was very little cheering over the returns, and of all the pictures shown on the canvass, the picture of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt was cheered more than any other. This fact was very noticeable in a Democratic town. time by the forelock, and even be- Rhow Taft 12,437; Roosevelt, 20, fore the election issued a call for 330; Wilson, 16.066. Progressive leaders to meet in Chi-' cago December 10th to lay plans for the campaign two years hence. The following item is taken from a press dispatch of last Monday: "Senator Dixon, Progressive National Chairman, announced to-day that Progressive fight for the Congress that begins in 1915 will be inaugurated at a meeting of the Progressive National Com mittee in Chicago, December 10. "Without awaiting the result of Tuesday's Congressional and Presidential elections, Senator Dixon will issue to-morrow a for mal call for the December meet ing of the Progressive party or ganization. " 'In addition to the members of the National Committee,' said Senator Dixon, I am also invit ing to participate in the confer ence all chairmen of the different State Progressive committees and all candidates of the Pro gressive party for Governor in the various States.

Rooseveslt, thinks he should be pitied and let off with a light sen tence. On just what grounds he bases his thoughts is not stated. The fol lowing is a dispatch sent out from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Friday night: "Believing that Colonel The odore Roosevelt does not bear malice toward him, John Schrank, would-be slayer of the Colonel, expects to escape with a light sentence. Schrank confid ed these expectations to Bernard H. Gottschalk who occupies a cell near that of the notorious pris oner. Gottschalk is a former resident of New York. " 'Theodore Roosevelt is only ; human, after all, Schrank said, according to Gotschalk. He ,. was shot and has recovered. Now that it is all over and he has had time for reflection, his bet ter self surely has concluded that' I should be pitied and not con demned. When McKinley was shot he showed forgiveness. The entire case rests with Roose velt. I know if he will come here and speak for me and adopt a broad view of the matter, I will get a light sentence. His word will settle the whole matter. I should think he would come here when the case is tried.' " It is to be hoped Colonel Roose velt will not ask the leniency of the court, but iwlll allow Schrank to re ceive the mkximum punishment. A of a special dispatch from Washing- re-election by former Congressman ton to Tuesday's Baltimore Sun: "The 'Stars and Bars' and 'Old Glory' will be placed together in the cornerstone of the Confeder ate Monument at Arlington Cem etery by the United Daughters of the Confederacy, who will meet here November 12 in general convention. President Taft's let ter authorizing the erection of the monument and the act of Congress permitting removal of Confederate dead to Arlington will also go into the corner-stone, with flags of the States that com posed the Southern Confederacy. "William Jennings Bryan to- day telegraphed Mrs. Marion Butler of the Arlington Confed erate Monument Association, ac cepting an invitation to make the principal address at the lay ing of the cornerstone."

Meagre returns received at midnight indicat ed that the Progressive national ticket and the Republican State ticket had been victorious in Kan sas. Progressive leaders claimed the State for Roosevelt by a plurality of from 10,000 to 15,000, but the Dem pcrats maintain that the complete vote would place Wilson in the lead. W. R. Stubbs, Republican, was leading Wm. H. Thompson, Demo crat, for United States Senator. For governor, Arthur Capper, Re publican, and George Hodges, Dem ocrat, were running about even. Practically every precinct heard from gave a majority for the State equal suffrage amendment.
