TAMMANY WINS BATTLE AND
ELECTS oAYNoR, WHILE TOM
JOHNSON Is DEFEATED.
Massachusetts and Rhode Island Elect
Republican Governor, While Vir-
ginia Returns a Democrat
Heney Defeated In San
San Francisco.

New York City.-The elections held
throughout the country on Tuesday
developed the usual surprises. New
York City elected the Democratic
candidate, Judge william ]. Gaynor,
mayor, while in Philadelphia, the ef-
fort Of the reformers to break the
Republican organization failed. In
New Jersey the Republicans held
their own everywhere. Tom L. John
son, Democrat, has been defeated as
mayor Of Cleveland, Ohio.
Massachusetts and Rhode Island
have reelected Republican governors
while Virginia has returned a Demo
crat to this office.
The latest returns from San Fran.
cisco indicate that Francis ]. Heney
has been defeated for district attor.
ney.
In Maryland the paramount issue
was the so-called DISTINGUISHING
amendment designed to eliminate the
negro as political factor. The
amendment has been defeated.
In Indiana the Republicans scored
several important victories, particu
larly in Indianapolis, where Samue
Lewis Shank, Republican, was elect
ed mayor and the entire Republican
ticket returned.
The Republicans carried Massachu
sets by the narrowest margin in the
history OF the Bay state for nearly {
quarter of century. The entire party
was elected, but Governor e. b
Diapers plurality was cut down from
10000 last year to 5000.
1t is apparent that Governor Arar
j. Pothier, Republican, has been re
elected over Olney Arnold, Democrat
in Rhode Island by several thousant
majority, and that the next legisla
ture will remain Republican.
The Democratic victory in Virgini;
brings Judge Mann to the office o

Are Badly Scared.

Chicago.-Charles r. Jones, chair
man Of The national cOml1'ttee OF the
Prohibition party, sees encourage
ment for prohibition in the election
returns, despite the defeat Of reform
tcrces IN many cities.
The most important feature OF the
elections" said Chairman Jones We'd
nesday night, was the startling de-
feat of reform forces In Buffalo,
Cincinnati and San Francisco. These
defeats are in no case result OF lii
difference to political reform and
civic righteousness in the large
cities. In almost every case there
was evident strong public senti-
ment for the election Of clean men
to office and the whipping out of
graft.
AT the same time, however, the
liquor interests and their allied forces
of graft and vice put on their guard
by raising public sentiment against
them, have been strengthening their
already compact political power and
through one or the other Of the domi
nant political organizations. have cas-
lily won a temporary reprieve from
the doom marked for them by public

Direct Nominations.
On the matter OF direct nominations
GOV, Hughes says
'One of the most striking develop
ments OF recent years Is the rapid
growth OF the demand Tor improved
methods of nominating candidates for
public office.
u. is a late phase Of the long strug-
gle against the control Of the powers
Of government by selfish interests.
Methods which make easy this control
are doomed, for the people will not be
content with the mere forms Of SELF
government.
The fine service OF party loyalty Is
prus,Nuted to the base uses OF those who
make the maintenance OF their individ-
ual power paramount TO true party in
terssts. And the Just strength and dig
nifty Of party leadership often fails by
reason OF public contempt for methods
frequently used to secure support for it's
counterfeit. Real leadership OF ability
and force OF character suffers from such
methods and would largely gain by in
creasing the difficulty OF their pursuit.
The present system tends to discourage
participation by the party voters in the
affairs OF the party. Entrenched power
Is so strong and the influence upon the
choice Of party candidates is so remote
that 1t requires an unusual situation to
call forth the activities OF the party
members to the extent desirable.
The candidates selected by the pres
ent method too often and not unnatu-
rally regard themselves as primarily ac-
not to their constituents nor
even, broadly speaking. to their party,
but to those individuals to whom they
feel they owe their Offices and upon the
continuance OF whose good will they
deem their political future to depend.
Selfish Interests Dominate.
But the most serious consequence Is
to the people at large. TO the extent
that party machinery can be dominated
by the few the opportunity for special
interests which desire to control the
Of government, to shape
the laws, to prevent the passage Of
laws, or to break the laws with i'm
punity, IL increased. These interests
are ever at work stealthily and per-
endeavoring to pervert the
sndS. All that 10 worst In our public
life hnds its readisst means OF access
10 power through tho control Of the
nominating machinery Of parties.
Party organization needs constantly to
iefend itself from these sncroach-
msnts, and the people for their proper
security must see that the defsnses are
built as strongly a. possible.
II therefore recommend "A system OF
