The World tomorrow will say editor
tally:
This reactionary result in this city
yesterday was provoked bv the pig
headed folly of the presi dent of the pulics
hoard. But for the exasperating sffeot of
Mr.. RoosevelIs uncalled-for. unjust,
harsh aud oppressive execution OF the
Sunday excise law. union of all the
nti-Tammany forces would have been as
easy and as triu mphant as it was last
year. The predicted reaction has come.
Tammany triump hs in the first eIection
after its tremendous overthrow. The re.
suit is discouraging. 1t inpeaches the
capacity of the people for self govern
ment. 1t shows that the voters are more
susceptible to wrongs than intelligent as
decent politics, good governm ent and the
liberalizing Of sumptuary laws required
the success of the reform ticket. one
mans obstinscy, folly and the unreason-
ing anger OF the people have defeated 1t.
The large Republican majority IN tie
state will stand monument to this SOFT
of virtue that exploits itself in regulat-
ing the morals of the people. The wider
political consequences of the result are
grave. 1t means the strongest possible
nomination by the Dem ocrats for presi
dent and the hardest struggle in years as
the basis of hopeful campaign next
year.
For secretary of state: The city of New
York complete gives Palmer, Republican,
