On Friday, Alex Smith opened with a pair of 73's to take the 36-hole lead by two shots ahead of McDermott, Gilbert Nicholls, Fred McLeod, and Tom Anderson.


1910 U.S. Open (golf)
Smith carded a 79 in the third round on Saturday morning that left him two behind McDermott, who shot a 75 for 223. In the final round that afternoon, McDermott was the first to finish and posted another 75 and a 298 total. Macdonald Smith shot 71 that also placed him at 298. McLeod had a chance to also post 298 after driving the final hole, but his putt for a two stayed out and he finished a shot back.


1910 U.S. Open (golf)
Alex Smith also drove the green at the last needing only a two-putt to win, but he missed from 18 inches (45 cm) and tied with McDermott and his brother. Alex was not fazed by the near-miss; in the Monday playoff, his 71 beat McDermott by four and Macdonald by six.

1910 United Kingdom general election
There were two general elections held in the United Kingdom in 1910:


1910 United States House of Representatives elections
Elections to the United States House of Representatives in 1910 were held for members of the 62nd Congress, in the middle of President William Howard Taft's term.


1910 United States House of Representatives elections
The conservative Taft contended with major factional splits within his Republican Party. Instead of using his position as president to bridge compromise, Taft alienated the progressive wing of the party, which had championed his predecessor, Theodore Roosevelt. While conservatives controlled the largest number of elected positions for Republicans, progressive politics had been what brought many voters to the polls. The clash of these units of the Republican Party, combined with the message of unity from the Democratic Party, was enough to allow the Democrats to take control of the House, ending 16 years in opposition. This was the first time that the Socialist Party won a seat.


1910 United States House of Representatives elections, Issues
Protection was the ideological cement holding the Republican coalition together. High tariffs were used by Republicans to promise higher sales to business, higher wages to industrial workers, and higher demand for their crops to farmers. Progressive insurgents said it promoted monopoly. Democrats said it was a tax on the little man. It had greatest support in the Northeast, and greatest opposition in the South and West. The Midwest was the battleground. The great battle over the high Payne–Aldrich Tariff Act in 1910 ripped the Republicans apart and set up the realignment in favor of the Democrats.


1910 United States House of Representatives elections, Election dates
In 1910, two states, with 6 seats between them, held elections early:

1910 United States House of Representatives elections in Florida, Background
The Democratic Party had dominated Florida's politics since the end of Reconstruction, with the last non-Democrat being elected to Congress from Florida in 1882. At this time in Florida's history, the Democratic Party's main opponents in Florida were the Republicans and the Socialists. In 1908, the Republicans had contested all three districts and the Socialists two. This year, only one district had a Republican challenger, while all three had a Socialist challenger.

1910 United States elections
The 1910 United States elections elected the members of the 62nd United States Congress, occurring during the Fourth Party System. The election was held in the middle of Republican President William Howard Taft's term. The Socialist Party won election to Congress for the first time. Arizona and New Mexico were admitted as states during the 62nd Congress.


1910 United States elections
Democrats won massive gains in the House, taking control of a chamber of Congress for the first time since the 1894 elections.


1910 United States elections
In the Senate, Democrats won major gains, but Republicans continued to control the chamber.


1910 United States elections
The election was a major victory for progressives in both parties. Taft had alienated many progressives in his own party, and allies of Taft lost several nomination battles. The strengthening of progressive Republicans helped lead to Theodore Roosevelt's third party run in 1912. Meanwhile, Woodrow Wilson's landslide gubernatorial election victory in New Jersey helped position him as a major candidate for the 1912 Democratic nomination. The progressive victory led to the passage of the 17th Amendment and the establishment of the Department of Labor during the 62nd Congress.

1910 University of New Mexico football team
The 1910 University of New Mexico football team was an American football team that represented the University of New Mexico as an independent during the 1910 college football season. In its first and only season under head coach Carl Hamilton (sometimes listed as H. B. Hamilton), the team compiled a 0–3 record, failed to score a point during the season, and was outscored by a total of 90 to 0. The team played its only home game at Albuquerque's Traction Park.


1910 University of New Mexico football team
The team struggled to secure funding. The 1909 team had finished its season with a deficit, the board of regents passed a resolution prohibiting the student body for incurring debt to fund the football team. The regents appropriated $500 to fund the team, but only on the condition that the students could raise an additional $1,000. Two weeks before the season began, The Albuquerque Morning Journal described the football prospects as "rather gloomy".


1910 University of New Mexico football team
With the season in doubt, university president E. McQueen Gray addressed a mass meeting of students on October 10 and announced that the football season would proceed. H. B. Hamilton, who coached at Albuquerque High School in 1909, was hired to coach the team.


1910 University of New Mexico football team
The team's 80-point loss to New Mexico Military on November 4, 1910, was the worst defeat in program history to that point. The 1917 team now holds that record after its 107-point loss to New Mexico A&M.


1910 University of New Mexico football team
Four days after the loss to the Military Institute, university president Gray directed the athletic council to cancel the remainder of the season, which was to have included games against the El Paso Military Institute, New Mexico A&M, and Arizona. As a result of the cancellation, the Arizona game was deemed a forfeit, and the territorial cup for which the teams played was returned to Arizona.

1910 VFA season
The 1910 Victorian Football Association season was the 34th season of the Australian rules football competition. The premiership was won by the North Melbourne Football Club, after it defeated Brunswick by 29 points in the Grand Final on 8 October. It was the third premiership won by the club, and the first since it was reformed after briefly ceasing to exist in 1908.


1910 VFA season, Premiership
The home-and-home season was played over eighteen rounds, with each club playing the others twice; then, the top four clubs contested a finals series under the amended Argus system to determine the premiers for the season.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The 1910 VFL Grand Final was an Australian rules football game contested between the Collingwood Football Club and Carlton Football Club, held at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne on 1 October 1910. It was the 13th annual Grand Final of the Victorian Football League, staged to determine the premiers for the 1910 VFL season. The match, attended by 42,790 spectators, was won by Collingwood by a margin of 14 points, marking that club's third premiership victory.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Although there were many rival attractions to the league grand final on the Melbourne Cricket ground on Saturday, the attendance was maintained, 43,000 people being present and the gate was worth £1,420 (~$202,000 in 2020 terms) compared to £1,190 (169,000 in 2020 terms) for the grand final of the previous year.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The disinterested amongst football followers were anxious to see Collingwood win, because they had been repeatedly in the finals without of late years getting actually on top, but one found a good deal of sympathy for Carlton.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Beginning the season with the loss of some notable players, they further weakened themselves, mainly through their own faults, as the tournament went on. Fate was rather against them this year.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Collingwood played the same team as the previous week, and the only alteration in the Carlton ranks was the substitution of Gillespie for Flynn.


1910 VFL Grand Final
A coincidence was noted as the teams came out. In every one of the finals this year, the first team on the ground has won the match. Saturday was no exception, as Collingwood led the way into the field.


1910 VFL Grand Final
At the opening, the game was inspiriting. Carlton seemed to have arranged for a sudden charge, and the way the ball was rushed right to the front of Collingwood’s goal got the onlookers excited at once.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Nothing decisive came from it, though it was quite clear in the first five minutes that the game was going to be desperately hard.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Collingwood’s retaliating change was more effective, for M’Hale, Baxter, and Angus took the ball the length of the ground, and, with a fine drop-kick, Angus set his side a goal-kicking example by landing the first goal for Collingwood.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The play was hot and close, and in the excitement no one gave a thought to possible consequences.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Marchbank turned a second Collingwood rush, and Scaddan was equally effective in defence for Collingwood when Bacquie and Jamieson, of the blues, looked like forcing it home.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The first fair try for Carlton was a snapshot by Elliott, which carried away slightly to the left of the post. Next Clancy sent it well up to Collingwood’s goal front; the defenders worked it away along the wing for a bit, but Carlton came again, and Marchbank had what would have been a difficult try from an angle.


1910 VFL Grand Final
He preferred to pass it right outfield to M’Gregor, and just as Collingwood were seriously  menaced a free kick in front of their goal gave them relief.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The next moment Carlton were being just as hotly pressed at the other end when Wells got a free kick and some ease for the blues. Angus and Payne shone out in turn for the fighting sides, and the play was tremendously hard, even desperate.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Baxter and Angus, of Collingwood were working beautifully together, and got the ball in position when Ryan, by an exceptionally fine effort, won his way to a scoring position, and just missed a goal.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Both Bacquie, who marked finely, and M’Cluskey were conspicuous in Carlton’s next attack, but Shorten, playing in determined rushing style, stayed off the trouble.


1910 VFL Grand Final
It was a little bit of bad luck for Collingwood that led to Carlton’s first goal. The magpies were being hard pressed when Rowell, by a fine effort, stopped it in front, and dashed away on the right wing. Just as he seemed to be clear an accidental slip was quickly taken advantage of by Carlton and Bacquie snapped their first goal.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Although Harris was watching Lee very closely, it did not prevent his doing his share in the back work, and the contest between these two all day was on the fairest possible lines. Another fine Collingwood effort, in which Angus and Vernon did most of the battling, landed the ball well forward where Lee marked and scored Collingwood’s second goal with a punt.


1910 VFL Grand Final
They had a dazzling rush of success then, and earned it with some very brilliant football. M’Hale, Gibb, Baxter, and Vernon dashed in, working well together, and Vernon scored their third goal, while Ryan and M’Hale were chief helpers in the effort that gave Lee a difficult angle shot and fourth goal for Collingwood.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Clarke and Payne were both playing splendidly in defence for Carlton, Harris giving them sound help, but Collingwood simply overpowered them at that stage.


1910 VFL Grand Final
In their next effort, Gibb, Wilson, M’Hale, and Hughes all battled splendidly.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Wilson got the try, made a very fine shot, but not quite straight and only got a point.


1910 VFL Grand Final
At quarter time Collingwood had established a sound lead of 19 points.


1910 VFL Grand Final
In the second quarter they made their only mistake of the match in adopting, I think, absolutely wrong tactics. Angus massed his men wholly for defence. They had been carrying their rushes home with such persistency and effect that the best form of defence at the moment was to go on forcing the attack. Lee was put right back.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Collingwood’s greatest strength was concentrated on their goal front, and they played wholly for the Richmond wing. As a consequence Carlton began to show up, and with anything like the same luck or skill that Collingwood were able to command the Blues might by half-time have  recovered the position.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Lee stopped the first Carlton rush but he made mistakes afterwards, for in a tussle with Gardiner the little Carlton forward got a free kick and just squeezed the ball through, making their second goal. It looked then as if Carlton would easily make up the leeway, but they were in a missing mood thence on to half-time.


1910 VFL Grand Final
A fine rush, in which Marchbank and Elliott excelled, gave Gardiner a chance almost immediately, but only a behind resulted. There was a lot of scrambling for a time down in the Collingwood corner, and Marchbank once got it right in front, but Lee saved his side. He put it out of bounds and was punished, M’Donald having a shot almost on the boundary line, but too difficult to turn to account, although he kicks fairly straight.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Next Gardiner got a chance from a free kick, and missed. Collingwood were being continually pressed, and were a long time in finding out that the negative game was not their best line. Rowell and Angus both did good work in their defence, but the captain, trying a short pass, saw Elliott come in cleverly and make a very fine shot without getting a goal. The first time Collingwood fairly got within reach success still stuck to them. Ryan, Hughes, and Angus passed it on to Gilchrist, who marked in front, made an excellent shot, and bagged their fifth goal.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The play was fairly even for a time; then Collingwood’s luck turned completely. Within a few minutes they had two of then finest players, in Scaddan and Ryan, down.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Scaddan soared for a mark and came down heavily, getting a wrench across the loins that kept him out   for some time. Ryan had his elbow so severely injured that he was practically of no further use in the match. At half-time   Collingwood held a 15 points lead.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The state of affairs in that quarter was very well summed up by a member of the league who described Collingwood’s policy as a winning side playing a losing game.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The second half of the match was neither so skilful, so exciting, nor so good tempered as the first half. It fell away considerably in character and never at any stage perhaps compared with the game between Collingwood and South Melbourne on the previous Saturday.


1910 VFL Grand Final
M’Gregor, of Carlton, had hurt his leg badly in the first half. He could only be placed forward. Scaddan had recovered, but Ryan could only be posted forward on the chance that something might drop into his arms. Before the play had been long continued Wilson, the active little Collingwood player was hurt near the boundary, and he too was of very little service to the side afterward.


1910 VFL Grand Final
In fact, in the final stages, Collingwood were represented forward by two cripples. Opening the third quarter Collingwood, playing briskly in a game which had quietened down greatly, were some time getting position.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Finally Lee, by clever play, snapped up the ball in front, got a fair scoring show, screwed his kick and achieved sixth goal. Immediately afterwards Daykin got the seventh.


1910 VFL Grand Final
At that stage it looked like a run-away match. Clarke was playing very solidly for Carlton, Payne putting in some slashing defence also. But the scoring chances for the blues were few and far between.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Lee had another difficult shot but did nothing, while Elliott, from a very fine try landed the ball right in the Collingwood goal, but not through it.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Carlton were a long time making any impression, but finally Marchbank, from a free kick a long way out, scored one of the finest goals of the match – their third.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Shortly afterwards the Blues goal was in danger. Gillespie and Payne were running the ball out between them when Lee, very cleverly anticipating the pass, whipped up the ball, and kicked eighth goal for Collingwood.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Still Carlton played on valiantly, Marchbank, M’Donald, and Clancy by grand efforts landed the ball with the lame  M’Gregor, who was playing forward, and he got fourth goal for them.


1910 VFL Grand Final
At the last chance Collingwood led by 20 points, which meant that Carlton had to score four goals to win. There seemed to be very little hope of their doing so, but the Magpies realised the loss of such a follower as Ryan in that crisis of the game.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Just as the final term was well underway a disgraceful scene occurred, which is dealt with in another column.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Soon afterwards, M’Gregor marking right in front, got Carlton’s fifth goal, and the game was rather rough and unpleasant.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Collingwood were fighting forward on the left wing, when Gibb, with a fine left foot shot, got their ninth goal, though his effort was probably meant only to land the ball in front. It, however, made Collingwood absolutely safe.


1910 VFL Grand Final
In the last stage of the match the players were bunched together, there was very little system, and the match lost caste, but Collingwood held their lead, and the cheering at the finish showed that their success this year was popular.


1910 VFL Grand Final
The fact that Lee got four goals for the side in this exciting game made him one of the most notable men in the colours, because, as the scores show, it was mainly through his straight shooting that Collingwood won.


1910 VFL Grand Final
No one played a finer game for them than Angus, who, although he wrenched his leg once rather badly, kept going pluckily right up to the finish. Scaddan, Shorten, and M’lvor did splendidly in defence. M’Hale was again a brilliant player for them about the centre. Norris proved a most useful man in the final stages when Ryan was hurt, and at that critical time also Vernon put in some of his best work. Hughes’s marking wits one of the features of the match, and Baxter and Rowell were of the greatest service to them.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Carlton’s defence was their strongest point. Both Payne and Clarke did some splendid work, Payne showing a pace that enabled him to surprise even such fast men as Oliver of the other side. Clarke was very solid, and a continual barrier in Collingwood’s path, and Harris decidedly useful.


1910 VFL Grand Final
Elliott, Marchbank, and Bacquie all did excellent work. M’Donald was exceptionally smart, and Wilson showed talents that pundits believed would inevitably make him one of the brilliant players of the league. Elder’s task was less pleasant than usual, but he made singularly few mistakes.


1910 VFL season
The 1910 Victorian Football League season was the 14th season of the elite Australian rules football competition.


1910 VFL season, Premiership season

1910 VFL season, Premiership season
Each team played each other twice in a home-and-away season of 18 rounds.

1910 VFL season, Finals
All of the 1910 finals were played at the MCG so the home team in the Semi Finals and Preliminary Final is purely the higher ranked team from the ladder but in the Grand Final the home team was the team that won the Preliminary Final.


1910 VFL season, Grand final
Collingwood defeated Carlton 9.7 (61) to 6.11 (47), in front of a crowd of 42,577 people. (For an explanation of scoring see Australian rules football).

1910 Walthamstow by-election
The Walthamstow by-election, 1910 was a parliamentary by-election held in England on 1 November 1910 for the House of Commons constituency of Walthamstow. It was then a division of Essex, but the area is now part of Greater London.


1910 Walthamstow by-election
This was a ministerial by-election. The laws of the time required that an MP who had joined the government had to seek re-election, and the early stages of the campaign saw controversy about whether the election should be contested. However, the main issue in the election was the Osborne judgment, in which the courts had banned trade unions from imposing a political levy on their members. After a prolonged campaign, the outgoing Liberal MP John Simon was re-elected.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Vacancy
The Liberal Party politician John Simon KC had been Walthamstow's Member of Parliament (MP) since 1906. He was appointed on 6 October 1910 as Solicitor General for England and Wales.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Vacancy
Provisions of the Regency Act 1707, which remained in force until amended in 1919 and repealed in 1926, provided that MPs appointed as ministers automatically vacated their seats in Parliament. They were then allowed to stand for re-election, in what were known as ministerial by-elections,which were not usually contested by the other major parties.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Vacancy
The Times newspaper noted that the relevant Act had been passed in the reign of Queen Anne "to prevent the Court from swamping the House of Commons with placemen and pensioners", and described the process as "anomalous" and "indefensible" in the 20th century.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Choice of polling day
There was some uncertainty in the constituency as to the procedure for elections when a seat was vacated during a parliamentary recess, when the writ could not be moved in the Commons in the usual way. However, on 11 October The Times newspaper explained that the Speaker could not issue a writ of election until he had received a certificate signed by two MPs declaring that the member in question had accepted an office of profit under the crown, accompanied by a copy of the issue of the London Gazette in which the appointment was announced. Those formalities had already been complied with, the appointment having been gazetted on 6 October, and an election was expected before the recess ended.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Choice of polling day
On 14 October, the London Gazette carried the required notice from the Speaker, giving 6 days warning of his intention to issue a writ for the by-election. On the 17th, the High Sheriff of Essex decided that polling would take place on Thursday 1 November. The decision was formally announced on 21 October, when the date for nominations was set at 25 October. The Liberals had preferred Saturday 29th, which would have been more convenient for commuters, whereas the Conservatives pointed out that Saturday was inconvenient for tradesmen.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Choice of polling day
This led to the Conservative candidate being heckled at public meetings, because a mid-week election would favour the Conservatives, and a public squabble developed between the two candidates. The Liberal agent swore an affidavit alleging that in negotiations with the High Sheriff over polling dates the Conservatives has repudiated an earlier agreement on Saturday polling, and on 30 October the Conservative candidate responded by releasing all the correspondence.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Candidates
Ministers forced to seek re-election were often unopposed, as had happened at Reading earlier that year when Simon's predecessor Rufus Isaacs had been returned unopposed after his appointment as Solicitor General. Some senior members local Conservatives wanted to follow the example set in Reading,but on 8 October a majority of the local party selected as their candidate 41-year-old Stanley Johnson, who had been Simon's opponent at the last general election, in January 1910. Johnson was a solicitor in the firm of Downer and Johnson, based in London Wall, and had been a member of Hackney Council for 9 years.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Candidates
He described his first priorities for the campaign as being support for the Osborne judgment, a case brought by a Walthamstow trade unionist which restricted the ability of unions to impose a political levy on their members. He also stressed his opposition to the payment of MPs, and proclaimed himself a "whole hogger" for tariff reform.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Candidates
The Liberal candidate, 37-year-old Simon, was a barrister who had risen fast in politics. The son of a Congregationalist minister in Bath,he was educated at Fettes College and then at Wadham College, before becoming a Fellow of All Souls. In 1903 he had been the British government's counsel in the Alaska boundary dispute, and he entered the Commons in 1906 at the age of 33, making a strong impression with his speeches. He became a Kings Counsel in 1908, at the unusually young age of 35, and developed a large practice, serving as standing counsel to the University of Oxford. At the time of the election, he was a widower with three children.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The Constituency
Walthamstow in 1910 was a very different area to when the constituency was created in 1885. The expansion of London had transformed it from a rural area of Essex to a mostly urban suburb of the capital. Brick-fields and market gardens had been replaced by rows of terraced houses for the 10,000 commuters who travelled each morning on the Great Eastern Railway from Hoe Street station to Liverpool Street station in London.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The Constituency
Constituency boundaries had not been revised since 1885, so this growth had left Walthamstow's electorate one of the largest in England. The number of voters had nearly quadrupled, from 11,233 in 1885 to 39,117 in 1910;more people voted for the losing candidate in January 1910 than were on the electoral register in 1892. By contrast, the rural Saffron Walden division of Essex had seen its electorate fall slightly below the total of 9,306 who registered in 1885.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The Constituency
The dominance of commuting voters forced candidates to adopt a different style of campaigning than was usual elsewhere in England. In rural areas, candidates held meetings on village greens or at market fairs, while in industrial areas they held midday meetings at factory gates or at the pitheads. Neither approach was viable in Walthamstow, where electioneering took place in the evenings after the commuters had returned.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The Constituency
There remained a few agricultural workers at the Woodford end of the constituency, and some middle-class areas on the borders of Epping Forest, near Leytonstone and Woodford, but the electorate was mostly urban and working class. There were some poor districts in Walthamstow, but no slums. The working-class voters were well-housed, but mostly lived almost hand-to-mouth. House rents were quoted weekly, and most of the furniture was also rented. Tenure in these homes appears to have been short: during the by-election campaign, it was reported that 12,000 of the 39,000 voters had moved house since the electoral register was compiled in July 1909.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The Constituency
The reforms of 1885 had nearly doubled the number of people entitled to vote, but still fell a long way short of universal suffrage. Voting was subject to a property qualification which excluded 40% of adult men, and no women were allowed to vote until 1918.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The issues
The electoral register had not been revised since the general election in January, but the issues had changed. The controversy over the People's Budget was expected to remain a hot topic in the campaign, but the proposal to remove the veto power of the House of Lords had been taken to a constitutional conference in June in an attempt to find a compromise, removing it from the current debate. The new issue was the Osborne judgment.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The issues
Osborne himself was a porter at Clapton railway station, and secretary of the Walthamstow branch of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants. He was a member of the local Liberal Association and had supported Simon at the last two elections. The political funds run the unions had been used to pay a wage to Labour Members of Parliament, who at that time received no salary.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The issues
Osborne and his colleagues in the Trade Union Political Freedom League wanted to end what they called the "barrier of Socialism" in trade unions, to allow political freedom to trade unionists who were Liberals or Conservatives. He supported the idea of paying MPs a salary, as an alternative to their funding by unions.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
Simon's election address was issued on 10 October. It consisted of only three paragraphs, which explained why he was seeking re-election, but included no statement of either his own political views or the programme of the government that he had just joined. He explained that omission in the second paragraph:


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
In January-last, after a long and arduous contest, you for the second time returned me by a large majority to the House of Commons. The views which I expressed then I still hold. These views are well known to you; and inasmuch as I am now appealing, after so short an interval, to precisely the same voters, you will not expect me in this document to set forth at length my political opinions.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
The campaign began the same day, and The Times noted that the Liberals were better prepared. Both candidates held public meetings, and Simon's meeting at Woodford was chaired by the Conservative Andrew Johnson, who disapproved of the opposition to a ministerial re-election and quoted the vicar of Woodford as saying that the infliction of the contest was "hardly fair". On 13 October, The Times published a letter from the vicar of Walthamstow, H. D. Hampden, who regretted that a contest had been forced.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
Hampden wrote that Simon had made no enemies in the constituency, and that the by-election could have been a chance to thank the MP for his work rather than putting him to the trouble and expense of an election. The following day, The Times published a letter from the vicar of Woodford, Henry Sanders, who supported Hampden, and said that opposition to the "futility of these needless and wasteful by-elections" was shared across supporters of all parties.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
At that meeting in Woodford, and later in the day at Walthamstow, Simon noted that the Osborne judgment was "a kind of Walthamstow product" and that it was natural for it to be a concern during the election. He explained that as a law officer he could not speak freely on what would be done about the case, but defended his constituent Osborne as "a real trade unionist". He said that his main concern was that "the path to Parliament should be open to men without the distinction of class or income", and that it would not be right for any Liberal government to leave the matter unsettled.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
In his election address, Johnson supported the Osborne judgment's ban on a political levy, saying that the union's "point of unity is not on political, but on industrial questions". He said that the ruling "secures the Imperial Parliament against the entering into it of men pledged actually or by implication to vote as ordered by more or less secret bodies by whom they are supported", and pledged "no compromise" in upholding it. He also opposed the payment of MPs.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign
On 12 October, Simon criticised Conservative politicians who claimed to support the entry of working-class people to Parliament, but seemed content that they had the right to enter, without removing the obstacles in their path. The same day, Johnson responded to criticism of his decision to contest the election, saying that the Osborne judgment was an important matter of domestic politics which had arisen in that constituency, and that as an industrial community they should have a chance of deciding on it.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign, Trade union and suffragist interventions
Walthamstow trade unionists met on 14 October with the local branches of the Independent Labour Party (ILP) and the Social Democratic Federation, to discuss the election. The delegates voted by 47 votes to 25 to oppose Simon's re-election unless he promised that a Bill to reverse the Osborne judgment would be introduced in the Commons. A delegation was sent to meet Simon.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign, Trade union and suffragist interventions
The local ILP had already passed a similar motion, and confirmed that they would not accept the payment of MPs as a reversal of the judgment, and a member of the delegation confirmed that they did not seek a declaration from Simon alone, but a pledge from the government that the unions would be allowed absolute control of their own funds. Meanwhile, the Labour Party was preparing a manifesto on trade unions, in which it said that the Osborne judgment was proof that there was one law for the rich and another for the poor; the unions could not do their job unless they had the power to support MPs.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign, Trade union and suffragist interventions
Osborne pronounced himself satisfied with Simon's answers to his questions, and promised his personal support for the Solicitor-General. The delegation from the Trade Union and Socialist Election Committee met Simon on 19 October, after which he wrote to them, explaining that he was not a member of the Cabinet and could not commit the government. He repeated his commitment to the payment of MPs, which both the Liberal and Labour parties had voted in 1906, but acknowledged that this might not be a complete solution. He also warned against supporting his opponent, writing that he would "be astonished if workmen in this division were so misled as to vote for 'Tariff and Tories'".


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign, Trade union and suffragist interventions
The committee's response was that the government could have made a substantive response if it had wanted to, and that since it had not done so they would campaign against the government candidate. Their manifesto, published on 24 October, called for voters to defeat Simon because of his failure to support the overturn of the judgment; but Simon's supporters said that this would make little difference, because these socialists had never voted Liberal.

Further opposition to Simon came from supporters of Women's suffrage (the right to vote in elections). The Women's Social and Political Union, the Women's Freedom League, and the Men's League for Women's Suffrage all advised electors to "keep the Liberal out". Hundreds of special interest groups organised street-corner meetings, and the suffragists held a procession which included a prisoner on a lorry.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign, Campaign concludes
When nominations were submitted on 26 October, there were nearly 100 nomination papers for Johnson, and 126 for Simon. Simon's papers included one signed wholly by doctors, one from nonconformist ministers, and eight signed by trade unionists.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, The campaign, Campaign concludes
The committee of trade unionists had hoped that 1,000 or 2,000 voters would follow their recommendation to oppose Simon, but as the campaign concluded it appeared that their only about 200 voters would follow their lead. In the end, both candidates agreed that the dominant issue had been tariff reform; but The Times correspondent reported that the campaign had engaged "nobody but the partisan who is always ready for a fight.

The campaign ended on 31 October with mass meetings. A Conservative meeting of 6,000 people at the Walthamstow skating rink was addressed by Lord Charles Beresford, while Russell Rea MP spoke to a crowd of 10,000 at the Liberal meeting in the Walthamstow recreation ground.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Results
The votes were counted on 2 November, and the result was declared from Walthamstow town hall at 1pm: Simon was re-elected. The turnout had fallen by almost 9% since the January election, but Simon's majority had increased a little, from 2,195 votes in January to 2,766 in the by-election.

The declaration was followed by speeches from both candidates. The Liberal victory procession that evening was nearly a mile long, as Simon was drawn in an open carriage through the main streets.


1910 Walthamstow by-election, Aftermath
This was the last by-election before Parliament was dissolved on 28 Novemberfor the general election in December 1910. Simon was returned, but Johnson did not contest that election.

1910 World Missionary Conference
The 1910 World Missionary Conference, or the Edinburgh Missionary Conference, was held on 14 to 23 June 1910. Some have seen it as both the culmination of nineteenth-century Protestant Christian missions and the formal beginning of the modern Protestant Christian ecumenical movement, after a sequence of interdenominational meetings that can be traced back as far as 1854.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
Major Protestant and Anglican denominations and missionary societies, predominantly from North America and Northern Europe, sent 1,215 representatives to Edinburgh, Scotland. Delegation was usually based on the annual expenditure of the missionary societies; one hundred additional special delegates were appointed by the British, Continental, and American Executive Committees. No Eastern Orthodox or Roman Catholic missionary organizations were invited. Only 18 delegates were from non-Westerners.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
Catholic Anglicans agreed to participate only after the British Executive Committee agreed to add the subtitle “to consider Missionary Problems in Relation to the Non-Christian World” to the conference title and to define the non-Christian world as excluding areas of the world that were nominally Christian but mostly non-evangelical, such as Latin America.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
Lord Balfour of Burleigh, of the Church of Scotland, a former Unionist cabinet minister, was the President of the World Missionary Conference. American John R. Mott, an American Methodist layperson and leader of both the Student Volunteer Movement for Foreign Missions and the World Student Christian Federation, chaired its proceedings. The main organiser was Joseph Oldham, a leader in the Student Christian Movement. The conference was held in the Assembly Hall of the United Free Church of Scotland.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
The formal title of this conference should be called the "third ecumenical missionary conference," because the first and the second had already taken place in London in 1888 and New York in 1900 respectively.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
Before the conference convened, eight assigned commissions, each with twenty members, conducted two years of research on their assigned topic. Each commission produced a single volume report, which was distributed to all of the delegates before they headed to Scotland and discussed at the assembly during the Conference.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
The Eight Commissions and their date of presentation at the Conference are as follows:


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
A ninth volume, containing the proceedings and major speeches, was published after the conclusion of the Conference.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh 1910
The spirit of the Conference was driven by the watchword of the Protestant Christian Missionary community at the time: "The Evangelization of the World in This Generation." Thus, sentiments of obligation and urgency drove many of the commission reports, discussions and speeches at the Conference. A call to unity among Protestant missionaries was also a common desire expressed at the Conference, although no common liturgy was celebrated among the delegates while in Edinburgh. In his 1947 book What Must the Church Do?, Robert S. Bilheimer used the phrase "New Reformation" to refer to the ecumenical movement that resulted from the conference, and this usage became commonplace thereafter.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Subsequent events
In the years following the Conference, Mott was especially energetic in promoting indigenisation of the evangelisation process. A Continuation Committee was formed under his leadership and he recruited thirty five members to carry out this mission. One important member was the only representative from China to speak at the conference, Cheng Jingyi, whose address to the Conference had been especially fervent on the issue of turning leadership of mission organizations to native leaders.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Subsequent events
In the next few years, members of this committee, under Mott's direction, headed to India, Burma, Malaysia, China, Korea, and Japan to gather information. The work of the Continuation Committee was interrupted by World War I, but formed the foundation for the establishment of the International Missionary Council, established in 1921. Later, in 1948, the World Council of Churches formed.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Centennial 2010 meetings
In celebration of its 100-year anniversary, a new World Missionary Conference was held in Edinburgh in 2010. Like the 1910 original, it was preceded by discussions on reports written by nine appointed study groups. There was a delegate conference in Edinburgh from 2–6 June 2010, which included representatives of the Evangelical, Protestant, Orthodox and Pentecostal churches, and the Catholic Church. It produced a common call to mission. Recognising the global nature of modern Christianity and the wide appreciation of the Edinburgh 2010 legacy across churches and mission bodies, many other events and study processes took place throughout the year. The whole process was co-ordinated through the Edinburgh 2010 website, where documents, videos, photos, etc. are available.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Centennial 2010 meetings
Also in 2010, three other major conferences were held to commemorate Edinburgh 1910. The first was held in Tokyo as a gathering of global mission leaders, from May 11–14th, called the Global Mission Consultation. The next gathering, the Third International Congress of the Lausanne Movement, was held in Cape Town, South Africa, from 16–25 October 2010. The third gathering was held in Boston, from November 4–7. Each of these four gatherings reflected on the significance and outcomes of Edinburgh 1910 over the last century. They also looked to the future of the Church's global mission in the century ahead.


1910 World Missionary Conference, Centennial 2010 meetings
The meetings in Edinburgh and Boston were more ecumenical in representation, and the meetings in Tokyo and Cape Town were primarily evangelical. The Tokyo meeting was organized and designed for evangelical mission leaders, and the Cape Town meeting was organized and designed for a broad representation of Church and mission leaders.

1910 Wyoming gubernatorial election
The 1910 Wyoming gubernatorial election was held on November 8, 1910. Incumbent Republican Governor Bryant B. Brooks declined to seek re-election. The leading Republican candidates to succeed him were initially former U.S. Senator Joseph M. Carey and Attorney General William E. Mullen. However, shortly before the Republican convention, Carey announced he would instead run as an independent candidate. Shortly thereafter, Mullen was formally nominated by the Republican Party. A week later, at the Democratic convention, Carey was named as the Democratic nominee for Governor. In the general election matchup between Carey and Mullen, Cary won a sizable victory, winning every county in the state, a feat that no other Democratic nominee would accomplish until Dave Freudenthal in 2006.


1910 Wyoming gubernatorial election, Party conventions
In the summer of 1910, former U.S. Senator Joseph M. Carey announced that he would run for Governor as a Republican. At the time, he denied any interest in running as an independent candidate if he lost the Republican nomination, affirming that he would only run as a Republican. State Attorney General William E. Mullen announced his campaign shortly thereafter, and called for the repeal of state legislation that limited the sale of alcohol outside of incorporated towns and cities.


1910 Wyoming gubernatorial election, Party conventions
Prior to the start of the Republican convention, Carey announced that he would instead run as an independent candidate, condemning the "republican state ring" that he alleged had run the state university and penitentiary system for political ends, committed financial fraud with the state's accounts, and had corrupted the state legislature. He called for the enactment of a direct primary law, eliminating the convention method of candidate nomination; the direct election of U.S. senators; and a corrupt practices act. At the Republican convention on September 15, 1910, State Senator Patrick Sullivan was unanimously offered the nomination for Governor, but ultimately declined it, enabling Mullen to instead be named as the nominee.


1910 Wyoming gubernatorial election, Party conventions
Subsequently, at the Democratic convention that began on September 20, Carey announced that he would be a candidate for the nomination, facing W. L. Kuykendall. Carey was seen as the frontrunner for the nomination, with a high-level Democrat in the state party noting, "We can swallow Carey if Carey will swallow us" and adopt the state party's platform. Carey was ultimately nominated unanimously, and pledged to financially support the entire state ticket.


1910 Wyoming state elections
A general election was held in the U.S. state of Wyoming on Tuesday, November 8, 1910. All of the state's executive officers—the Governor, Secretary of State, Auditor, Treasurer, and Superintendent of Public Instruction—were up for election. Former U.S. Senator Joseph M. Carey won the gubernatorial election, securing the first Democratic win for Governor since 1892. Democratic candidates unseated Republican incumbents in the elections for Secretary of State and Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Republicans narrowly held open seats in elections for State Auditor and Treasurer.


1910 Wyoming state elections, Governor
Incumbent Republican Governor Bryant B. Brooks declined to run for re-election. Former U.S. Senator Joseph M. Carey and Attorney General William E. Mullen were the leading Republican contenders, but Carey instead successfully received the Democratic nomination, and ran against Mullen in the general election. Carey defeated Mullen by a wide margin, the first Democratic gubernatorial victory since 1892.


1910 Wyoming state elections, Secretary of State
Incumbent Republican Secretary of State William R. Schnitger ran for re-election to a second term. Cody Mayor Frank L. Houx was nominated by acclamation at the Democratic convention as its nominee for Secretary of State. The contest between Schnitger and Houx was close, and initial vote tallies showed Houx up by several hundred votes, but the final count showed a considerably narrowed result, with Houx up just 37 votes. Nonetheless, Republicans did not contest Houx's election, and Schnitger conceded defeat.


1910 Wyoming state elections, Auditor
Incumbent Republican State Auditor LeRoy Grant declined to run for re-election to a fourth term. At the Republican convention, Robert Forsyth, a State Senator from Sweetwater County, was nominated over George Patterson, receiving 117 votes to Patterson's 59. Forsyth was then nominated by acclamation. In the general election, Senator Forsyth faced the Democratic nominee, George C. Forsythe, a Converse County Justice of the Peace. Forsyth ended up narrowly defeating Forsythe, winning by just 766 votes and a 2% margin.


1910 Wyoming state elections, Treasurer
Incumbent Republican Treasurer Edward Gillette was unable to seek re-election due to the state constitution's prohibition on state treasurers succeeding themselves. At the Republican convention, State Senator Joseph L. Baird was nominated after former State House Speaker Scott Snively and H. R. Weston both declined to seek the office. At the Democratic convention, Dr. Earl Whedon defeated former State Senator Leopold Kabis for the nomination, and advanced to the general election. In the general election, Baird narrowly defeated Whedon, winning by just 207 votes, or 0.56% of the vote.


1910 Wyoming state elections, Superintendent of Public Instruction
Incumbent Republican Superintendent Archibald D. Cook ran for re-election to a second term.

1910 and 1911 United States Senate elections
Although the 17th Amendment was not passed until 1913, some states elected their senators directly before its passage. Oregon pioneered direct election and experimented with different measures over several years until it succeeded in 1907. Soon after, Nebraska followed suit and laid the foundation for other states to adopt measures reflecting the people's will. By 1912, as many as 29 states elected senators either as nominees of their party's primary or in conjunction with a general election.


1910 and 1911 United States Senate elections, Results

Gordon was listed in 1865 by the United States government as a fugitive, and a reward of $10,000 had been offered for his capture, dead or alive. Later that year, he was ruled out of the suspects. Gordon then admitted that he had met with John Wilkes Booth in Montreal in March 1865, and had discussed plans to kidnap Lincoln, but denied any discussion of murder.
