1t Was the True Democratic Vots
That Elevated Edward
T. Bartlett.
REPUBLICANS HELPED A LITTLE.
Tammany's City anAyCounty
Tick cts Win with Few
Exceptions.

That the nomination of Isaac H.. May.
nard for Judge of the Court of Appeals
was the cause of the defeat Of the Stata
Democratic ticket is clearly apparent
from the latest figures obtainabie Of
the result of yesterdays election.
The slaughtering of Maynard at the
polls was the great feature of yesterdays
battle. He was knitted in every election
district IN the city. and the fact that he
ran about 5000 votes behind his ticket
is evidence of the tremendous load which
the Democrats were carrying in the fight.
by attempting to bolster up 30 unpopular
and so unfit a candidate.
The vote for Judge of the Court of APP
peals throughout the State Is equally
! surprising. Edward T. Bartlett, the Re-
publican candidate, secured in the var.
ious counties pluralities of about 10000.
while those for Maynard do not exceed
5000, a plurality for Bartlett of 5000.
While these figures are not official they
are believed to be very near correct
The official returns may show an even
larger plurality for Bartlett.
For the hsad of the State ticket, Cord
Meyer. jr., the city gave about 10000
plurality out of a total vote of nearly
259. O0O, Meyer receiving over $4,000 and
Palmer 5000. Maynard's vote was
about 10, 900; Bartlett's over 5000.
The vote for the Prohibition, Populist
and Socialist candidates for the Court OF
Appeals was II, 800; giving Maynard q

little more than 81, 1000. or Is, 1000 less than
Meyers
Compared with the registration, which
was 265, 900, a vote OF 259,OO0 shows q
smaller falling of than in any recent
election. Indicating how thoroughly
aroused the people were and how faith
fully they did their duty.
In 1889 the falling Of was 10000; In
1880, $4,000; in 1891, 1900. and in 1Sss.
., 900.
Another story that the figures tell. IL
that Maynard's defeat is not a victory
gained by Republican votes. On the
contrary. the figures show that In this
city the Republicans were apathetic
and did not poll their full party vote.
The total vote for Palmer Is something
like 5000.
This would be a fair Republican vote
In an OF year, but 1t Is well known that
these figures exceed the total Of the Re-
publican vote cast. Thousands Of Demo
Gratis voted for Bartlett. and in many In
stances the whole Republican ticket. to
show their dissatisfaction with machine
men and methods.
The Indifference or other cafhses thai
kept the Republicans from the polls In
ascribed by Republicans TO the rotten
ness OF the local Republican organiza-
ton as now managed. and they look for
a reorganization of the party in this city
as one OF the results OF yesterdays cleo
ton.
Mr.. Plat is now. or will De, in COM
plete control OF the party machinery.
BY getting rid OF Jacob NJ. Patterson and
others he will have supreme sway. Mr..
Plat has always been called a boss.
but he never had supreme sway In party
management like Senator Hal.
He has won chief command now and
Republicans expect great things from
him. A Governor is to be elected next
year. and IL he Is not n Republican
Plat will be blamed for it,
Tammany has made a clean sweep
of the city and county ticket by plu-
~ralities which, in the case of all tho
candidates, except perhaps John r. Fell
lows for Distrlct-Attorney, will range
about the same as those given for the
State ticket.
Mr.. Croker has also pulled through
all his State Senators, and all the AS
semblymen elected for this city, with
the exception OF three.
In those three districts the Republic
cans were successful. james II. Shelf
field was elected in the Eleventh Dis
trict by a plurality of l,2I4 votes, over
Frederick J. McCloy. his Tammany OPP
ponent In the Twenty-third District
Judson Lawson beat George c. Comm by
LIZA plurality. with two election dis
tricts still to e from.
