the earnest movement among the class
of independent and Influential voters,
as illustrated in New York by ihe pow-
erful association of conservative and
loading lawyers, known as the Parker
Constitution club, protesting against
Mr. Roosevelt s "getting ftp a policy
of force,” vigorously warring for a
restoration or law and order, instead
of dictatorial, personal government,
appealing to all good citli-ens to rally
in the defense of edvic freedom and
the sancify of the obligation* imposed
by International law.
But much stronger evidence, that ...»
a general uprising of the people for a
return to constitutional government, is
furnished by the careful investigations
of the Herald, published on the ‘JSth
Inst., which shows that even it Mr.
Roosevelt should be elected the
chances are that the democrats will
have a majority in the nexi house of
representative*. The result of these
invesligations, which accord with oth-
er Independent conclusions, indicate
in the light of hard facts and very
clearly that there are only "l debat-
able or doubtful congressional dis-
tricts, of which the present opposition
will need to carry only 25 in order to
gain a bare majority. Ab the Herald s
inquiry show*, the republicans ob-
viously I altar under a twofold difficulty
—first, that in state# that have sup-
ported them strongly in recent years,
ns Pennsylvania and Illinois, "they
stand to lose many members of con-
gress," and second, “republican plural-
ities In every state in tb« union, ex-
cept in the extreme northwest and the
Rocky mountain stales, have been
shrinking ever since I89C,” while the
democrats, who were disaffected in
that year, have been returning to

New York World: The statistic# of
presidential elections for the last forty
years show that change of six per
cent in the vote would have reversed
the result in almost every case. In
tnahv of them a much a mailer change
would have done it. Even in 1898,
when the democrat* were over
whelmed by a republican plurality of
000,400 In ihe popular vote, and a ma
Jorlty of 9S In the electoral column, a
change of 25,000 votes properly dis-
tributed would have defeated Mr Me-
Kinl- y and elected Mr. Bryan. It Is
the Independent vote that makes presi-
dent*, and with both parties again
divided on the old lines, the hide
pendent vote that make* presidents,
and with both parties again divided
on the old lines, the Independent vote
will be the "bloody angle” of the cam-
paign.
