LOWELL. Mass, Nov. s-Hon. +. Il.
Greenhalge the Republican governor-elect,
when seen at his house, said II am Of
course greatly gratified at my election by
so pronounced majority. Apart from
personal considerations, however, il is evil
dent that Massachusetts, has emphatically
swung back into the Republican column
where she naturally belongs. | venture to
say that Democratic rule in this state is
dead for years to come The result is also
a most fitting rebuke to Democratic tariff
principles, the mere threat of whose en-
forcement has brought such distress TO our
workingmcn and paralysis to business"
When the governor-elect arrived In this
city, the Republican organizations met him
with big procession and escorted him to
his residence amid great enthusiasm along
the line. Roosters, brooms aud red fire
were features of the jolliiication. Mr..
Greenhalge made a little speech thanking
his townsmen for their interest in his be
half and congratulating the party on its
magnificent victory.

ALBANY, Nov. S.-The Democratic state
leaders in this city practically gave up the
state ticket as lost TO the Republicans at
midnight, but hoped to save the legisla-
ture. Returns were received at the eXecu-
tive chamber by a gathering Of notable
officials, including Senator Hill, Governor
Flower, Attorney General Rosendale, State
Engineer and Surveyor Schenck, Colonel
Williams, Colonel johnson and Colonel
McEwan.
During the earlier hours Of the evening
It became apparent that the state was go
ing Republican, and they had very little to
say. At 10 o'clock all hope of saving the
state ticket was given up.
When it was sure that the Republican
state ticket was elected, the Republican
clubs gathered together, and heaCNd by a
band proceeded to the home OF General
Palmer, the Republican secretary of state.
They were accompanied by an immense
throng of people, and when General Pal
mer appeared there was a burst of ap-
plause. General Palmer spoke briefly, say
/ ing he was glad the Republican party bad
vindicated itself and thrown of the thrall
of the ring.
At midnight Governor Flower expressed
himself regarding the result in New
| York state as follows: "The Republicans
have elected their state ticket. The legis-
lature at this hour is in doubt. The Re
publicans will probably control the consti-
tutional convention. The result is surpris-
ing. but it seems TO have been general
throughout the country and can only be
attributed to the business depression and
the thousands of men out Of work.
The election here was passably quiet,
only one arrest being made for repeating.
The Republicans seemed entirely inactive,
and the result is that Albany county has
returned to its normal Democratic major
ity Of close TO 1000.
The ticket was cut very little, and the
J independent Democrats Withdrew early IN
the day. Judge Maynard was cut very lit
