A Nation's Choice.
To the Editor of The Telegraph*.—
Now that another choice of a chief
magistrate haa been made It may not
be amis* to endeavor to take stock of
our abstract national resources. The
resources of a strictly concrete char
acter are very readily arrived at. and
being of commercial value are kept
thoroughly accurate and of easy ac
cessibility. There ean be no doubt that
these United States are far better off
in all nature's material riches than has
ever any nation been at any period In
all the history of the world.
The bars suggestion that any con
siderable number of the citizenship of
America shows any signs of deterio
rating Is looked upon as too absurd for
consideration by some.
T*on# but a fool would wish to see
this land become poverty-stricken still
it is. far better that we should have*
greatly diminished prosperity than that
tho*masses of the nation should cower
under the coercion of those who by.
virtue of their Immense and Ill-gotten
fortunes are gradually buying up the
powers of the national government.
All these alleged resuming of opera
tions since the election sterns on the
surface, only to be desirable and en
couraging nnd purely It Is thus; but
lot us see If beyond or beneath this
“return of confidence" there Js or. un
dercurrent that may In any degree
bode evil for our institutions. What
does this "return of confidence" mean
anyway? Is there a f^ar that under
a domocratlc administration by some
mysterious means there would come a
change In the material needs of this
country or of the world at large? Do
the needs of the nation fluctuate with
changing political policies? Can it he
possible that the desires of the people
for the common needs of life and tor
the comforts atjd luxuries they now
enjoy, would ha partially paralysed
with a rhnnge In the* control of na
tional affairs? Impossible! Man’s need
for food, clothing and all the many
other articles of necessity and luxury
know no political distinctions. If then
the needs of the pet pie are practical
ly always the same, wherein lies the
' gh awful dread of a change

HOPE FOR DEMOCRATS.
Crumba of Comfort Extracted From the
Defeat of 8ry*n.
From the New York World.
In 1»9« Mr. Bryxn waa defeated by a
popular plurality of (01,854. In 1900 ho
wile defeated by a popular plurality of
140,790. Thla year tho popular plural-
tty agalnat him run. upward of 1,100,-
000.
Mr. Bryan aald, In tho formal attte-
ment lasued yesterday: "If I ooull
regard tht defeat at a purely personal
one, I would consider U a blessing
rather thin a misfortune." The de
feat waa ao largely personal that Mr.
Bryan need not healtate about regard
ing It aa a bloating. The return, in
dicate that there ar. not half a doxen
state. In which he has not run behind
the democratic candldat. for governor.
While Mr. Tutt'sr popular plurality
la more than 1.100.000. It la eatlmntad
that tha combined pluralities agalnat
the democratlo state tickets aro little
more than 400,000—a difference of 700,
POO against Mr. Bryan personally.
Then are few states In which ho
did as well oa In 1000. Ho has
brought Nabraaka. wtth eight electoral
votes. Into tho domocratlc column, but
seems to have lost Missouri, with elgh.
teen electoral votes, although In 1990
he carried Missouri by 87,000. Even
the aouthkrn state*, 'which aro rasp
albla (or Mr. Bryan's nomination this
year. Were not greatly Interaated In
voting for him. Only Kentucky gives
him an Increkaed plurality over 1900.
In the othere, except Maryland, whe-e
tho electoral vote will probably be
split, there Is a Bryan slump varying
from hundreds to many thousands.
In the eastern atataa Mr. Bryan fared
worse than In 19,0. In Naw York
ha lost the city, which hr carried eight
yrorn ago. nnd Taft’s pturxll.y In tha
state exceeds McKinley's 1900 plural-
It v by 40,000. Tha Pacific coast states
followed the Atlantic coast states m
Increasing their anti-Bryan pluralltlu
In the middle weet Mr. pryan\*ver
ased only a tittle batter than In 1800.
What he gained In Indiana. Iowa and
Wisconsin ho loat In Illlnole. where
Mr. Taft has IT8.000 to Mr. MCKIli>yV
98.000. Even In Colorado ho fall 84.000
behind hla 1900 vote.
It wot a democratlo defeat Tues
day. but the element of dIsas’** la
Mr. Bryan’a own property. So far aa
th/Democratic party la concern#! tho
tltuatlon Is very encouraging. It I,
rid of Mr. Bryan'e perpetual unit-
dacy. It hat won great victor'*, in
Ohio. Indiana. Mlnneeota. and North
Dakota, when It elected its candid ales
for governor In spite of tho repuh 1-
ean pluralities for prealdent. It hai
wan hardly less striking vlccoricg In
Illinois and Michigan, where demo
cratic candidates tor governor nearly
overcame Taft pluralities of 175.004
and 100.0,9. It gains a United Statre
senator ln Indiana. •
New leaden are coming up. Un
balanced extremists have sloughed off.
Democratic governors In republican
states have a rare opportunity to de
monstrate their capacity for leader
ship. Compared with tho tltuatlon
four yearn ago, democrats everywhere
are Jus tided tn new hope and new
courage.
