DWlor. Nov. 10.—Even at this date
returns in figures are not all in, and
it will be days before they are. In the
meantime it known that the Nation-
al Republican ticket swept the country
as no other ticket has ever done.
Every doubtful state was swept Into
the Republican column, and by major-
ities that indicate in no uncertain way
the public refusal to change present
conditions. Missouri, a hitherto Dems-
cratlc Gibraltar, has given a straight
Republican vote, carrying the whole
ticket, excepting Joseph W- Folk,
whoso strong personality won for him
even in St. Louis and Kansas City.
This early tho "sooners” are setting
for the plans for “reorganization,”
which they hope to use in boosting
themselves into place or prominence.
Tho soberer minds are busy "taking
stock.” It is plainly evident that hope
of success can only come from consis-
ent and thorough harmony on doctrine
and Interpretations. Consistency is
demanded by the people. Outside of
the rolid South, the brass collar is off,
and the breaking away of Missouri and
the close vote in Kentucky and Tenn-
essee show clearly that even here
there is a great cleavage and that par-
ty whips have lout much effectiveness
among the people at large, and that a
broader and more cogent policy
must be adopted in order to hold to-
gether the powerful solid South.

The Situation.
Austin:' In response to a request for
an interview cn what the future
course of the Democratic party should
be to succeed before the people and
fulfill its destiny, former Gov. J. ‘D.
Sayers gave the following statement:
“I do not( consider the political sit-
uation of to-day as at all permanent.
Strange as ft may seem, the Republi-
can victory has been so great and
sweeping that its results can not be
otherwise than temporary.
“I do not think that the National
Democracy made a mistake in St.
Lottis. It put forth a good ticket and
a commendable platform, but circum-
stances, altogether favorable to the
Republicans, were too strong to be
overcome.
“My opinion is that the Democratic
party should continue to present an
unbroken front, moving upon and
closely adhering to the lines of. its
well-established faith—constitutional
government, low taxation, economy in
public expenditures, steady and impar-
tial enforcement of all laws and re-
gard rather for the peace, happiness
and prosperity of the people than for
the development of military power and
the acquisition of foreign territory.
“I am also of the opinion that its
policy should be to earnestly promote
our foreign commerce by ail consti-
tutional means, to the end that Amer-
ican goods may be sold in all the
markets of the world.
“We should not become despondent
or quarrel with ourselves or seek ai-
iance with other organizations, or in
the hope of success assume doctrines
that are foreign to the long recognized
principles of the party.
“The Democratic party has always
suffered when seduced from its proper
course. I am hopeful of the future.
The American people can not afford to
allow the Republican party to remain
permanently in power, and they will
not. JOSEPH D. SAYERS.”

THE ELECTORAL VOTE.
New York, Nov. 10.—If Maryland
has gone Republican, as unofficial re
turns at this hour indicate, the Repub-
lican vote in the electoral college will
be the unprecedented one of 351 for
Roosevelt and Fairbanks to 133 for
Parker and Davis.
Not only is this far in excess of Mr.
McKinley’s vote—292 in 1900—but
Judge Parker’s vote is less than that
given Mr. Bryan four years ago. It
is practically certain that the Repub-
lican National ticket has Carried every
State In the Union outside of the so-
called solid South. It may take the
official count to l&cide Maryland.
The Republican majority in the next
House of Representatives will not be. today, said:
“To the South the result of the na-
tional election is more of a disappoint-
ment than a surprise. Parker’s over-
whelming defeat is the outgrowth of a
