Massachusetts, Democratic Governor.

Outside of Massachusetts itself.
which did not seem to be greatly sur
pr:sed at the result of the election.
there has been no incident of the cleo
ton more amazing than the election Of
IL Democratic governor in Massachu
sets, unless we expect the unexpected
slide throughout the country. That tn.
old BAY State should give Roosevelt
elect a Legislature overwhelmingly
Republican. and elected all the Other
publican candidates for State offices
and at the same time elect a Democrat
as governor by a plurality of $1,000 is
a political phenomenon which outsiders
hay" hard work 10 understand. But a
reading of the Massachusetts papers
show that there ar" many explanations
at hand for the defeat of Governor
Bates and the election of Mr.. Douglass.
OF course the sum If the whole matter
lay in the :act that Governor Bates
was unpopular and Mr.. Douglass
popular. but the reasons for the IN
popularity Of one and The popularity OF
the other are long stories.
During :hc recent session Of the
Massachusetts legislature Governor
Bates had no end Of trouble with that
body. He vetoed many measures. and
in this way made enemies of great
many members. One bill which he
vetoed was the overtime law forbidding
overtime work by women and children
in certain classes of manufacturing in
dustrics. This made him unpopular
with the labor element, and other bills
which he vetoed caused resentment
among rural members. who promptly
went home and directed al. their efforts
aud those of their frit nds against his
reelection. II is hot at ali unlikely
that many OF the measures which Gov
crnor Bates vetoed deserved his disap-
proval. and should rot have become
laws. but his independent attitude and
his vigorous opposition to what he
deemed unworthy measures made him
political enemies. some of them being
