WASHINGTON QUIET
Election Day in Capital City
Quiet Owing to Dis
franchisement.

Associated Press to The Evening Tlmen
Washington, d. c., Nov. 6.-Election
day has brought on Washington Sun
day quiet. The situation here is
anomalous in that, while there is no
locality that possesses and feels SO
deep an interest in the result of the
political contest which has now reach
ed its climax, there is no real outward
local manifestation of that interest.
This Is due to the fact that citizens of
the District Of Columbia are disfran-
chised. and are thus rendered incap-
able Of actual participation in the con-
test.
The departments have been empty
ing themselves of voters for several
days until today in all the big govern
ment buildings the forces were reduced
to the lowest minimum possible. Desks
everywhere were vacant, their occu-
pants having gone home to vote. This
applied as we'll to the higher officials.
The example set by the president and
by the heads Of departments in going
away to vote was followed almost unit
formly by the clerks of bureaus and
subordinates in all the branches Of
government work. The government
service was not allowed to suffer be-
cause Of this exodus of voters, as the
heads of departments prepared for the
lack of workers by getting the routine
work we'll in hand and in such condi-
ton that a reduced number of en-
ployes could handle 1t.
The capitol building was practically
deserted. None of the official posi-
tions in that building is subject to civil
service rule and most OF them are held
as result Of personal political serv-
ice. AS consequence, the occupants
have In many cases been quite as much
occupied with political affairs as have
their superiors. Of all the government
bureaus the largest quota of voters
left the government printing Office
There are several thousand men in
that office and they are about equally
divided between democrats and repub-
licans.
Tho United States supreme court
constituted one exception to the gen.
eral rule prevailing at the capital.
That tribunal went forward today as
usual with :ts business. but even the
members Of the cour. ara not totally
divorced from the general concern felt
over the election results.
Naturally the most interest here is
taken in the result of the New York
contest. Many eyes are turned also
toward Massachusetts,, Pennsylvania,
Tennessee, Colorado and Idaho, in all
OF which states the contests are re-
garded as Of unusual interest and the
results more or less in doubt

AS the Evening Times goes to press

but they indicate th..t from every part
OF the state will come a concise en-
dorsement of the republican party. As
can readily be seen, the country dis
tricts, except where they can he
reached by phone, will not be able to
get their returns so that they can be
received in this city before some time
tomorrow morning, and any figures
given out before that time will be the
merest guesses. The tickets are long,
the counting will be slow and the
lateness of the time when the polls
close will make the matter of secur-
ing definite returns labor for to-
morrow rather than tonight. This
is especially true of the western por-
ton of the state where the largest
straight republican vote will be cast.
In the City.
The city vote will not indicate the
results in the county and while the
returns from the precincts in the city
will be available at rather early
hour tonight, definite results from the
entire county will not be obtainable
until Wednesday. The voters as a
rule voted early and the ladies who
cast rather large poll, did most of
their voting before dinner. The usual
number Of carriages have been used
and it is said that the inability of the
county central committee to distin-
guish between their own caused many
of the voters to be taken to the pre-
cincts in the opposition carriages.
There was little excitement in the city
and the voters did their voting and re-
turned to their work with as little
delay as possible.

F|ERCEST POLITICAL STRUGG[ F
EVER FOUGHT now IN PROGRESS

When daylight dawned this morl...
ing it was on the opening of the big
gest battle that has been fought at
the ballot box in this state for years.
and in all probability in the history
OF the state. At nearly fifteen hund-
red voting precincts in the state were
the formal openings of the machinery
which was to register the will of the
people of the state, on the men who
are to be entrusted with the manage
ment of state affairs, and the repre-
sentation of the people in the national
congress for the next two years. One
thing of which North Dakota may
boast-the work of the republican
party-that there is no danger of the
fraud and trickery in the conducting
of the election and no stuffing of the
ballot boxes. No matter how much
the people may differ on political mat
ters, the recording of the popular will
is decidedly honest. 1t is not so in
many states. In New York today men
have gone to the polls between two
lines of policemen and been searched
as to their residence and lives as
though they were criminals before a
tribunal of justice. In North Dakota
today the battle has been outside the
electioneering limit. 1t has been
waged necessarily for four weeks and
the guns are not silenced even as
this story is being read by the people
of the state. The democrats, having
all to gain and nothing to lose, have
made a fight for tn. offices which has
been little short of desperation. They
have campaigned the state and have
had the backing of interests which
they would refuse to recognize on the
street. They were at their posts when
the gong sounded this morning, and
1t is certain that no man who profess
es allegiance to that party did other

New York, Nov. 6.-Exceptionally
favorable weather conditions after
campaign of almost unprecedented ac-
tivity on the part OF the two leading
candidates for gubernatorial honors,

hours. however, the prisoners proved
their right to vote, and were permitted
to go back and deposit their ballots.
Charles E. Hughes, the republican
candidate for governor, voted shortly
before S o'clock in an Amsterdam
avenue barber shop. Hughes walked
down from his home in West End ave-
nue.. He was greeted with cheer
as he approached the polling place.
Dispatches from cities and towns up
state indicate that large vote is be-
ing polled. Everywhere the weather
is favorable and country roads are in
fine condition. In all industrial centers
the early morning vote was unusually
heavy.
AS the forenoon wore on, balloting
throughout the city continued with
unabated strength. This is particu-
larly noticeable in the so-called silk
stockings" neighborhood. In the thir-
teenth election district of the twenty
ninth assembly district. OF out of a

polled up to 9 o'clock. Reports from
fifteen districts in the Sixteenth,
