NEW YORK, Nov. 6-Wlthout affect
Ing In the sllghttst theNcertalnty that
Wilson and Marshall yesterday captured
an overwhelming majority of the elcc
torial votes, conservative estimates at 1
p. ni. today compelled a transfer to the
doubtful column of some states where
the results had been recorded as cer
tain. Among these states -were Iowa,
with thirteen votes and Minnesota with
twelve and ultra conservatives even In
cluded Illinois, with twenty-nine votes
and Pennsylvania with thirty-eight. At
that hour Wyoming's three votes and
South Dakota's five had not been placed.
Heavy reductions In the early reports
of a large plurarlty for Roosevelt In
Kansas upset all calculations, so that at
this hour Roosevelt's lead over Wilson
had narrowed to 625 votes on returns
from about one-fourth of the precincts.
In Illinois the heavy Wilson vote out
side of Cook county had reduced Roose
velt's lead to about 15,000, as against the
estimated 100,000 or more given him last
night, upon the Chicago returns.
The Roosevelt supporters declared at 1
p.- m. there was no reason to put Penn
sylvania in the doubtful list, even though
they admitted that early reports of the
colonel's plurality probably had been ex
aggerated. On returns received up to 8 o'clock
this morning from states where the re
sult was reasonably certain. It appeared
that Governor Wilson would have almost,
If not quite 400 of the 531 votes in tho
electoral college, and that Colonel Roose
velt would have nearly 100, President
Taft had received twelve votes, those of
Vermont, Idaho and Utah; while the
forty-seven votes, of Iowa, Minnesota,
New Hampshire. South Dakota and Wyo
, !nlnstYmalned In the doubtful class.
ejmsylvanla'a thirty-eight votes today
were apparently certain for Roosevelt.
The' raco between Taft, Itoosorolt and
Wilson was almost atl oven' affair until
wore," than 185,000 ballots had been
counted. As precincts outside tho. large
cities began to report Roosevelt and
Wilson forged ahead and with something
over half the vote counted Roosevelt this
morning had a plurality of over 20,000.
Minnesota, conceded to Wilson at mid
night, later slipped back Into the doubt
ful column as accessions to the Roose
velt strength reduced the democratic lead.
Iowa, given to Roosevelt In the midnight
returns, showed a strong reversal of form
and this morning partial returns give
Wilson a aUght lead.
New Hampshire In Doubt.
The returns from New Hampshire was
so close as to make predictions of the re
sult impossible. Taft's lead over Wilson
varied from 13 to something over 400, and
with many districts yet to be counted,
the electoral vote remained at issue be
tween the democratic and republican
candidates.
The Roosevelt victory In Illinois showed
signs of being greatly reduced as the
Mown state" precincts came in during
the early morning hours.
No efforts were made during the night
to compute the popular vote for the pres
idential candidates. In the majority of
states, however, the record vote was
larger than at any previous presidential
election, and the final returns on the
actual number of ballots cast for the
three candidates Is expected to exceed all
records.
The division of the republican vote be
tween Taft and Roosevelt resulted In
complete democratlo victories In many
states. In New York the democrats car
ried the state ticket and the legislature.
In Illinois the democratic candidate for
governor had apparently carried the
state. Democratic senators appeared cer
tain as successors to republicans from
Colorado, New Jersey, Delaware, Mon
tana and several other states.
Socialistic Vote Crows.
A general increase in tho socialist party
vote polled by Eugene V. Debs, the presi
dential candidate, was accompanied by a
setback to the local socialist organisa
tions in two of their strongholds. In
Wisconsin Congressman Bergor, the only
socialist In the house of representatives,
was defeated with a number of other
office holders, and In Schenectady, N. Y.,
where, the party had elected -almost a
complete lolal ticket at the last election,
practically all of Us candidates were de
feated, Presltent-Elect Wilson will have behind
him a geeatly strengthened majority In

Philander I. Claxton, United States
commissioner of education, has a panacea
Tor our educational Ills, one that he be
lieves will bo easy to take and wll leave
ui mentally healthy and content. His
plan Is to do away with present hap
hazard methods, establish new schools,
build homes for tho teachers and give
them a contract to teach the same pupils
for life, or during good behavior! of tho
Instructors. Good behavior consisting of
keeping sober, keeping out of debt, hold
ing a slanderous tongue.
In a BPecch before 2,000 teachers who
aro attending the Nebraska state teach
nrs' convention Dr. Claxton outlined his
plan at tho high school auditorium yes
terday afternoon. He would district the
stales Into sections of sixteen square
miles each, give eooh teacher a llttlo
farm of twenty-five , or thirty acres, build
lilm a homo and' permit Mm to farm anil
'teach. It wouldn't cost the state a cent,
ho said, but would In reality add $50,000,00(1
to the country's income for educational
purpoies. .
"You notice I say 'him;" said Dr. Clax
ton, "and I mean Just that, i believe In
women teachers, but wo can have too
much of n Rood thing. I bellevo In tlio
fatherly and motherly elements In tho
schools, but tho women should have
charge of the lower grades."
According to Dr. Clayton's plan tho
states would .Issue bonds, which would be
sold at par and wlttifn a few years re
deemed by the proceeds from the llttlo
farms, which the pupils would help cul
tivate. This plan would affect 00 per cent
of the schools, as It would apply princi
pally to the purely rural districts.
If this js'ystem should be Inaugurated
teachers would' become an Influence; re
spected residents whose business would'
tie an honord one and Continued year by
year with profit to them and the com
munity. , j &.. . i K
Three-Hour Sohool'uav. '
"I hope the time will come." ho said, ,
"when the school day will bo two or
three hours long; when wo will begin
going to school between tho ages of
and 5 and .keep going for the rest or
our natural lives."
First Dr. Claxton severely attacked
the "book methodB" now employed.
Memorizing came in for a" merciless
scoring. "It Is a vaccination," he aa
sertod, "that effectually prevents tho
pupil from ever taking the disease."
Then he gave Illustrations. A teacher
pulled down the window blinds when a
circus parade passed and then scolded
the studednts because they couldn't de
scribe tho animals of Africa.
Buch pupils know the books well but
they do not know the things they
studied when they actually see them. A
girl applied for entrance In a schoot In
a district within sight of the highest
peak of the Appalachians. She didn't
want to enter a grade where geography
was taught because .she had finished it.
"Where are the Appalachian moun
tains?" Dr. Claxton asked her.
"In the eastern part of tho United
States, running northeast and southwest."
"Did you ever see them?"
"No," she replied, as she looked out to
ward the highest punk of the range.
"Sho know," Dr. Claxton added, "that
the Appalachian mountains were a kind ot
caterpillar tcrawl from the northeast to
tho Bouthwes corner of the map."
Teachers who teach children merely the
knowledge of the books without finding
its relation tollfe are a menace from
.which children should be protected. Dr.
Clnxtoii declared.
After tlie plan proposed by th doctor
should b put Into effect one teacher
would servo for four or five generations
of children. In one district. Dr. Claxton
said, two teachers served ninety-six years,
one for sixty-four years and the other for
thlrty.-two.
These were the teachers who knew tllelr
pupils, their hopes, ambitions and dreams;
were acquainted with their families and
the llttlo influences that were brought to
bear upon them and could sympathise and
direct with some efficiency.
Describes Ideal Condition.
Continuing the description of his plan,
Dr. Claxton said he had worked It out
in the most minute detail. "There would
be an average of from 100 to 350 children
In each one of these districts. A, model
country house would be built for the
teacher not a luxurious house but as
Ideal as possible.
"Then require the teacher to live there,
Require him to cultivate twenty-five or
thirty acre In as model a manner us he
can. Have him keep Iji communication
with the department of education of the
federal government.
"This teacher would become a power
and would teach through four or five
generations. It wouldn't coot Nebraska
or any other stute a cent to do this."
These schools would soon become as
sembly places for all the people, tho com
missioner belloves, and would bo a source
o'f enlightenment not only to the pupils,
but the parents as well,
