MAYOR sCHIEREN sAYs-A PROBABLE
VOTE AGAINST CONSOLIDATION.
The clean sweep which THE Republicans MADE IN
Brooklyn last year repeated this year with tn
result that they have secured control OF al the
city and county Offices ard VIII be able to introduce
reforms In a.. department. Besides carrying the
county by more tAdn $500 p.ara.ity for Mo-.on-
double tc plurality Tor the State ticket last year
they e:octed the Controller and City Auditor who
are members of tAa Board Of Estimate with tie
Mayor and with him VIII have the appointment; OF
six Po.ice justices and The County Clerk Register
and Treasurer. j.st as they did the Mayor and
Sheriff last year. They completely reversed the rep
resentation IL Congress- SO that FIVE Republicans viii
succeed Ave Democrats. Instead of eleven OUT Of
eighteen Republican Asscrbiymen Uwc OF whom
had to fight for Their seats last year, there VIII he
fifteen Republican members Of Assembly The Re
pubcans VIII have good working majority In the
Board OF Supervisors instead Of bare plurality. as
last year The result OF the failure to unite upon
fusion ticket with the Reform Democrats Is tia, the
Republicans elected their candidates by majority
over both the Machine and Reform Democrats. The
fact that the vote cast for The Reform Democratic
candidates in 10 case exceeds 1850 shows how fut!,e
were their boasts of having enough votes 10 elect
their ticket They have stood up and have beon
counted.
BUSY SEEKING EXCUSES.
The regular Democrats were busy yesterday seek
ing for satisfactory excuses for the landslide which
had swept them away. Some said II the hard
times; others that II was a declaration agans; the
Cleveland Administration. and still others that 1t
was the reputation of tariff reform. But combined
with ell these was the popular uprising against Sen
ator Hill, survival of the same feeling that ce-
feated Maynard so Overwhelmingly last year.
Republicans could be recognized IN the streets OF
Rrooklvn by their Joyous ana smiling faces. Mayor
Schieren said that personally the result was eX-
tremey satisfactory to him. He was particularly
glad that the city ticket had been elected lie
had already received assurances from the Controller
and City Auditor-elect that they would assist him
in every way in behalf of good government on the
general result Mayor Schieren said
Evidently the people of this country do not
favor free trade Nor do they favor any extreme
tariff legislation. as clearly proven in the cam
pagn Of 1892 What the people want Is a conserva-
tive protection of their industries, and by a wise
and prudent policy the Republican party can remain
in power for many years to come. II the leaders
will carefully study the situation they must realize
this Brooklyn certainly rejoices that New-Nork
CITY has been redeemed. and the tremendous ma
jori;y there in behalf OF good government proves
again what power the people have IL they choose
TO take advantage OF It, With a Republican Cow
ernor and Legislature we can now compete more
thorough reform in our municipal affairs upon
which the people Of Brooklyn can be congratulated
Among those who called on the Mayor was Reg
ister-e,ec, Harman who told the Mayor he Was pre-
enlnently "schieren candidate" The general senti-
ment OF satisfaction with the result was voiced by
Republican, who said:
