the figures had been read early in the nlght 70
great crowd, having learned that the young Mayor

TIE DEMOCRATIC DEFEAT.
The Democratic party was united IN support OF
Hendrix as it has been for no Brooklyn candidate
for wears. and it never did much systematic and
thorough work in an election. Every hall IN which
the Republicans held a political meeting was hired
for the following night by the Democrats and all
that music fireworks and speciOus oratory could do
TO rouse enthusiasm and advance the Hendrix
"boom was done in all parts of the city. Money
was lavishly spent in campaign ex-
penses by the Democrats, while the Republicans
were cramped for means. Not cent was asked
from any employee in the city, though many volun-
tarily contributed, and all the amount raised was
the free Offering of publicspirted citizens. Every
cent of it was spent to the best advantage, but
there was not enough to send a set OF ballots to
each registered voter, as done by the Dem
OcTats.
The expectations of Hendrixs friends that he
would make as good run any Democrat who
could be named for Mayor were justified but it
was not good enough for them. They re-
called Yesterday that he said in his speech
of acceptance that he could afford to be defeated,
and said he would have TO sOace himself with that.
One man said: Hendrix compared himself to
star when he said 4 star that sets may rise again,
but star that falls is ost forever but he was not
even a star but only a meteor which flashed across
the political horizon, to due away in darkness"
