Since the Last Election.

Change of Something Like 100000 Votes
Since the Last Election.
ALBANY, N. Y, Nov. 4.-The com.
pleted returns from the state, though
coming in slowly, demonstrate that the
4publican landslides of the past two
years have been reversed, if not by Civ
ing as large majority for the Democrats,
at least by changing something like
$40, 900 votes. Governor Blacks plu-
rality in the state last year was over
BOO, 900. John Palmer, the Republican
secretary of state, won the year pre-
Vious by over 100, 900. The indications
are that these eDolmous pluralities have
been swept away and q reverse plnral-
ity of between 10000 and $4,000 is
given. The greatest surprises OF the
returns are the great gains made in the
assembly b. the Democrats, many Of
them being in counties and districts
where there was no expectation on the
part of Democratic managers OF win
ming. Republicans explain these gains
by attributing them TO the heated mu-
nicipal campaigns and the trading or
votes The morning returns indicate
that the Republicans still control the
assembly, although by a largely de-
creased majority.
Mere surprising, perhaps, than the re-
turns ON the state and assembly dis
trict tickets, were results of the munici-
pal campaigns in the large cities. New
York, Buffalo, Rochester, Birmingham,
Syracuse, Utica, Albany, Troy and
Schenectady, elected Democratic may
ors. In Albany the conditions were
very similar to those in New York.
Two Republican candidates split mp the
vote of thas party and allowed the
Democrat to WIN. TIE combined Re-
publican vote is 2,0Co in excess Of the
Democratic vote. In buffalo and
Rochester Republican suec u, was
thought TO Dc Almost ssLrea bas the
results arr toTslwn 10 f'fs rgr-ii.ts ~.

The Tammany forces. Mr.. Low was
well ahead of General Tracy, the Re.
publican nominee, who was third in
the lace. Low polled l46,4l2 votes,
Tracy 101,012.
Henry George polled 20,422 votes,
and the combined votes cast for Glea-
son, Wardwell, Saniel and Cruikshank,
the candidates of the Prohibition, So
cialist Labor and United Democracy
parties polled less than 5000.
The indications are that with the ex-
oeption possibly of 6 of the 81 assembly
men in Brooklyn and of the 35 in
New York, all the Tammany candidates
are elected. In Queens, four of the
assemblymen are Democrats. The
Citizens Union elected two assembly
men in New York county.
An exceptionally large vote was polled,
despite the inclement weather. the fig
ures now az hand indicating that $780,
900 ballots were cast out of a total regis
tration OF 567, Cos. There were com
p%arativeiy few split tickets, a vast ma
jority OF TIE voters voting their party
tickets straight.
Completely Reverses Conditions.
The result of the first municipal cleo
ton in the Greater New York com.
pletely reverses the conditions Of 1896
when McKinley's plurality in the same
territory was Of, $50. The plurality of
|vm Wyck, Tammany candidate, is
about IS, coo and The entire ticket is
elected with majorities ranging from
0,00e TO 100. coo. Coier's plurality over
Fitch (Rcp.) for comptroller, is over
100, 900. Both Van Wyck and Coler
were free silver adherents in 1895.

than 1870, 900. insuring his election and

than $50, 900, insuring his election and
Democratic success in the state.
Such a rush to the polls has never
been known except i'll presidential years.
Rainy weather failed to dampen civic
enthusiasm. The registration was alb
normal. The total of 567, 256 was only
I,452 behind that of 1896. Last year
only 6.66 per cent failed to vote for
president and the estimated total vote
this year of 528, 900 shows that the fall
ing off does not much exceed that of
1896.
The vote for Tracy (Rep.) was divid-
Cd by the candidacy of Seth Low upon
a citizens ticket. Low was second and
Tracy third in the contest. The George
vote was inconsiderable. The death of
its leader evidently disintegrated his
following and thousands evidently
voted for Tammany candidates. 1t is
claimed hat young George lost many
votes through the failure of inspectors
to afix his paster to mayoralty tickets.
The unofficial vote for mayor follows:
Van Wyck, 235, 800; Low, 149. 1913;
Tracy, 10l, 1888; George, 20. 1856; Gleason,
62I.
The vote for Van Wyck is about "A. 20
per cent of the total vote cast, or less
than the 45.2l per CEN cast for Bryan
in 1896 in the same territory.
The united vote of Low and Tracy
shows IA, 127 more than Van Wyck re-
ceived. The metropolitan district is
normally Democratic, and the plurality
for Van Wyck is a return to normal
conditions in an election not influenced
by national issues.

van wYCK's POLICY.
New Mayor Makes "a Statement as To His
Administration


NEW YORK, Nov. 4. Judge Robert
A. Van Wyck, now mayor-elect OF
Greater New York, in an interview,
said:
"As we begin this first year of Greater
New York, there is much to do. Lib
erty must be restored TO the citizen, the
protection Of his rights must be re-
sumed, the pillage of public money
must cease, extravaganza must be dis
countenanced, waste must stop, schools
nust be built, the streets must be re-
claimed from chaos, taxes brought TO
a proper level. Private interest has
too long governed this city; it must
give way TO public good. The govern
ment of a city, as / understand it, has
naught of sentiment about it. 1t is the
merest business. We must get the most
good for the least money. No man must
be oppressed; his liberty must be pro-
tected, the broad purposes Of city gov
eminent must be carried out, the great
est good to the greatest number must
ever be the star to steer by.
Must Serve, Not Rule.
Getty government is the merest busi-
ness, and to make it successful and to
reach the ends at which we aim, all the
officers in the city, whether they be
mayer, judges, police or what you will,
must serve the city, not rule it. The
people must rule; the officials must ex-
ecute the peoples orders. To make the
business OF city government a triumph
to the citizen, it IS further needed that
every officer, however high orjhowever
low, must be honest and lit. He must
know his duties, he must bring probity
and faith and honor forward in their
discharge.
eve are overtaxed. This must be
looked to, and the taxes trimmed down.
When every city's need is met, of the
comforts and the Injuries we will get
what we can.
There is nothing in the line Of i'm
provement that can make this city bet
ter TO live in that the people are not en-
titled to and do not want. The New
York public is not ~niggardly, not par
simonious; il waass eve1y beneflt, every
advantage, and is willing to pay Tor
them. What the people do object to is
G waste, extravaganza and robbery.
"The efforts OF trusts, Of m~onopolies,
of combinations, whether corporate or
private, TO control trade. choke compe-
tition and fleece the citizens by false
high prices, VIII be withstood and
beaten down.
Every child must have the right to
go to school. Nor shall the school sys-
tenn cease of enlargement until every
possible pupil can find fullest accommo-
dations.
''To such rights and benefits as dollar
gas, / have in my letter of acceptance,
as well as in the platform, been pledged
from the first. Those pldges are not to
be forgotten; those promises are to be
carried out.
