OTHER PARTIES' PLIGHT Third Termeri to Poll Their Entire Strength Prom the Rapidly Thinning Republican Ranks. That thn result of tho stato elec tions In Vermont and Mnlno mean n tremendous Democratic lctory In No vember, is freely admitted by all ex cept tho bitterest partisans. Politi cal experts have done some analyzing, mid mhiic claim to have l cached novcj conclusions. Hut these facts stand out: On Monday, September 9, 1912, tho Republican and Third Term parties combined elected William T. Unities governor of Maine, over Frederick W. Plalsted, tho present Democrats In cluuibent, by ;t,02J .plur.tllty; In l'JOS, a presidential year, u llepubllcan was elected governor by 7,C5:t plurality; In 1901, tho plurality was 'JA.SOO, and in 1UU0 it was U,V.V2. In other words, In 12 years tho Democrats have cut down tho Republican plurality In state elections by 31.101). In this period the Democratic vote has Increased from 39,000 to 08,000 whereas the Republican vote has de creased from 74,000 to 71,000. The Democratc vote of this year exceeds that of September, 10u8, 'by 1,000, but the Republican vote Is about 2,000 less than that party cast four years ago. Tho split In the Republican ranks, following the election of William T. Haines, la pronounced. If the divi sion In Maine in November Is as It waa In the recent Vermont election, six-tenths of the Republican vote will SO for Taft, three-tenths for Roose velt, and one-tenth for the Demo crats. It la sltntfioant that the latter party has to data suffered no losses, as compared with the rota la previous years, from the Third Term move ment. On the contrary, It has gained. The result in Maine may be expected to be something like this: Wilson, 74,000; Taft, 42,00; Roosevelt, 21,300. The returns from the recent Ver mont election show, In round figures, that the joint Republican and third party vote was eight per cent, abort of the Republican vote four years ago, while the Democratic vote In that state shows a gain of twenty-five per cent, over that of 1908. It Is of spe cial Interest to speculate what will happen next November throughout the nation if the Republican and Democratic vbto for the national tickets happen to be affected as the gubernatorial voto this month In Vermont has beon affected. The New York Evening Post has dono some Interesting figuring along this line and as a net result U is shown that, under the contingencies mention ed, President Taft would carry only two states In November, Rhode Island and Vermont, all the others going for Gov. Wilson. The conclusions reach ed by the Post follow:, "To compute this result we should have to deduct 8 per cent, from the vote cast for Taft four years ago and apportion the remaining vote In the ratio of 62 to 38 between Taft and Roosevelt, and we should have to add 35 per cent, to Bryan's vote in 1908, and give the 'demultlon total.' to Woodrow Wilson. In other words, give Taft 67 per cent, and Roosevelt 35 per cent, of Taft's vote four years ago, and give Wilson 125 per cent, of Bryan's vote four years ago. "The result In round numbers would be as follows, so far as regards Taft and Wilson. States. Taft. Wilson.

The U. 8.

Tho average farm prices of the Im portant crops (corn, whfat, oats, bar ley, rye, flaxseed, potatoes, tobacco, cotton and hay, which represent about three-fourths of tho value of all tho country's crops) declined 7 per cent, duclng tho month, whllo in tjint time last year thoy declined In prlco only 4.4 per cent, and during tho last four ears tho decline in price nvor iigcd 3.S per cent. Tho average of farm prices on Sept I waa 2.8 per cent, lower than on that dato last year.

TRUTH ABOUT THE TRUST "Expected Economlea .from Combina tion" Do Not Materialise. (Louis D. Brandels In Collier's.) Leaders of the new (Third Term) party argue that Industrial monopo lies should be logallsed, lest we lose tho efficiency of large-scale production and distribution. No argument could be more misleading. It may be safely asserted that In America there la no line of business in which all or moat concerns or plants must be concentrated In order to attain tho else of greateat effi ciency. For while a bualneaa may be too small to be efficient, efficiency does not grow Indefinitely with increasing site. What the most efficient else la can be learned definitely only by ex perience. The unit of greatest effl clency la reached when the disadvan tages of else counterbalance the ad vantages. The unit of greateat effl clency Is exceeded when the disad vantages of slse outweigh the advan tages. The history of American trusts makes this clear. That history shows: First No conspicuous American trust owes its existence to the desire for Increased efficiency. "Expected economies from combination" figure largely In promoters' prospectuses; but they have never been a compell ing motive In the formation of any trust. On the contrary, the purpoo of 'combining has often been to curb effi ciency or even to preserve Ineffi ciency, thus frustrating the natural law of the survival of .the fittest ' Second No conspicuously profita ble trust owes Its profits largely to J superior efficiency. Some trusts have been very efficient, aa have some In dependent concerns; but conspicuous profits have been secured mainly 'through control of the market- 'through the power of monopoly to fix i prices through thla exercise of the ! taxing power. ThirdNo conspicuous trust has been efficient enough to maintain long as against the independents its pro jportlon of the business of the country without continuing to buy up, from time to time, Its successful compctl- 'tora There Is plenty of peace about the (Taft candidacy, but nobody claims "It paBseth understanding." i Woodrow Wilson Fays to the long isufforlng fnrmcr who huys In a trust (controlled, highly protected market nnd sells his wnren In a freo market: i"Wnlk Into your own houso and tako possession," i How many of thoso who 'aro strug gling with tho "High Cost of Living" bellcvo there is to he nny relief If tho Republican party, which brought it about, romulns In power?
