The Farmers Extras

The two election extras issued last evening by The Farmer gave to the waiting city the first complete and authentic news of the election, city wise, State-wise and National.
 The Farmers first extra contained a far more complete table than in any other paper, showing the vote for the principal candidates in each district and giving at a glance the result of the election Bridgeport. With the ex- ception of few typographical errors, the first figures needed no correction in the second extra which followed The Farmers election force made a most creditable record for speed and the complete election returns were giv- en to Bridgeport with a promptitude never before known in the city.
 Representatives of The Farmer were present in each district when the mod orators opened the voting machines and the figures were flashed into the central office by phone tabluated by expert accountants and given to the public at once, showing the complete vote not only in the city at large but by districts.
 The Farmers second extra. issued about two hours later. contained the complete returns.

TEDDY'S SUPPORT
 SPELLED DEFEAT
While Opposition of Roosevelt Brought Success to its
 Recipients

New York, Nov 9.--Roosevelt sup port, seems, today, to have spelled defeat for it's recipients, the coun- try over. and Roosevelt opposition to have brought them success. The only one of ROosevelt's friends, fer whom he made an open fight, whose fate is at all in doubt, is Senator Beveridge, of Indiana, and the indications are that he has gone down with the rest
 Of course, Roosevelt's most notable defeat is in New York State, where Stimson. recognized as the Coloners own political creation, was running on a platform of Roosevelt's making, was beaten by more than 60,000.
 Of the men whom Roosevelt op- posed, Judge Simeon D. Baldwin, of Connecticut, was most conspicuous The clash between these two reached suit in a slander suit by the Cover nor-eIect against Roosevelt. Cover nor Harmon, of Ohio, was another notable example and he, too, was vic- torious by a decisive plurality.
 Roosevelt made a special trip to Iowa to. aid the Congressional candi- dacy of Charles Grilk, but the latter lost.
 The defeat that came closest to the home of Roosevelt, was that of Will liam F. Cooks, who represents the Colonels district and for whom the Colonel made a final appeal on the night before election. The other New York friends of Roosevelt, who count ed on his support to return them to Congress, were Hamilton Fish and Rerbert Parsons. Both were de- feated.

MILFORD COUNT
 IS FLUNG UP"
Democratic Counters Refuse to Sign Certificate, Alleg- ing that Returns Show One Democratic Repre- sentative Elected.
Especial to The Farmer.)

Milford, Nov. 9.-After a dispute lasting for 12 hours from the closing of the polls, the six counters of the Milford vote went home at o'clock this morning in a deadlock as to the method of counting certain of the Australian ballots, the three Repub- lican counters agreeing in their SUD- port of Judge Charles G. Root, the moderator, and the three Demo Ocrats holding out against his ruling. Ii will be up to the House of Represen- tatives to settle the dispute, for 1t in volved only the two candidates for the House of Representatives.
 The returns from Milford indicate plurality for Goodwin of Az, while the rest of the state ticket was elect ed by about 100 plurality. There IS no dispute as to the outcome of tine vote on state candidates.
 The vote on the candidate for the House,according to the count as made under the system employed by the moderator and three Republican counters showed the election of Mer- win and Evitts, both Republicans, while under the count as made by the Democratic counters, Merwin and Clark, Republican and Democratic candidates respectively are elected.
 The candidates were Merwin and Evitts, Republicans, and Stoddard and Clark, Democrats.
 The three Democratic counters made the following report: The counters do not agree on the count for representatives, and therefore re- fuse to sign this report as to the rep reSentativeS"

WILL LEAD TO
 TARIFF REVISION
Berlin Tageblatt Voices Senti ments of German People on
 Democratic Success

Berlin, Nov. 9.-The Berlin Tage- blatt, today, voicing the thought that is in the minds of many German peo- ple, expressed the opinion that the Republican overthrow in the United States will lead to tariff revision. 'If America will now revise her tariff, '' it says, we will make concessions, too.'
 The note of many press and pri- vate comments is that the result was a peoples revolt against the govern ment by the rich and for the rich. Excessive capitalism, trusts and the tariff are held responsible. Roosevelt is, also, made to share large part of the responsibility.
 The Democratic wave that has swept over America, is described as merely a manifestation of the unrest that is now seiZing other countries. .'It is a wave elsewhere, that amounts to a deluge," is the way one of the papers puts it.

Republicans Still Control Legis. lature But Lodge Has
 Close Call

Boston, Nov. 9-Massachusetts to- day, wrote herself in the Democratic column and the Bay State will have a Democratic Governor with other cleo tive officers Republicans and LeeisIa- 1ty. The party division in the Massa- chusetts Congressional delegation probably remains the same, four Democrats and ten Republicans, though some big Surprises were brought to light and all Republicans were elecged on greatly reduced ma Jorities. Boston elected three of the Democratic Congressmen and = Wor- cester elected another in the third district, in the person of John A. Thayer of Worcester, to succeed Con- gressman c. G. Was1burn. In the 14th district. formerly represented by Gov ernor-elect Foss, Judge Robert o. Har- ris. Rep, of East Bridgewater, defeat ed T. c. Thatcher Dem, of Yarmouth, by 156, thus equalizing the gain the Democrats made in electing Thayer. In the fourth district, William Wild CT, Rep, was elected to the 62nd Con- gress by IF, but his Democratic op- ponent John J. Mitchell, was elected by a small plurality to fill out the present term.
 Massachusetts has elected a Demo- cratic Governor, Eugene N. Toss, for the first time since the expiration of w. l.. Douglas term.

GIVE THEIR BEST WISHES TO THEIR
 SUCCESSFUL FOES
Two of the Defeated Repub- lican Nominees Hasten to Extend Manly Congratu- lations.

Two Republican candidates who went down to defeat yesterday called up The Farmer to say few words now that "the battle is over" and makes the activities of the campaign seem but 8 trivial matter in com- parison.
 J. A. H. Robinson, who lost the place of senator in the 23rd to Garry Paddock by 14 votes made the fol- lowing statement:
 .'The returns show that I was de- feated by IA votes. I wish to thank my many friends for their loyal sup- port. l am conscious of having done all I personally could to be elected. However, the odds were against me congratulate MT. Paddock on his election and wish him a successful career as senator"
 Daniel J. O'Brien. who was defeat ed for alderman in the Second by James F. Garrity, Democrat, hasten ed to call up The Farmer today to thank his friends and extend his best wishes to his successful opponent. He declared that the bitterness of battle is certainly over so far as he is con- cerned and he wishes MT. Garrity a most successful career in the council.
 we all come of good fighting stock in the Second" said MT. O'Brien, '.and now that it's all over I want to congratulate my opponent most heartily"
 Jeremiah Holmes, prohibition can didate for representative, ran 190 votes ahead of his party ticket, with a total of 299, of this result he said My vote, the compliment of which I appreciate greatly, supports our con tention that the liquor traffic must have more attention, especially by the Bridgeport men who go to the gen. eral assembly,"
 John@J. Ennis. IT,, who was de- feated for alderman in the Ninth dis trict by small majority, asked The Farmer to extend his thanks to all electors who supported his candidacy. He is satisfied with the result and says that inasmuch as a majority should rule he accepts his defeat complacently. MT. Ennis was pitted against an experienced politician and although the district is normally Re- publican by several hundred he suc- ceeded in reducing the vote of his opponent to within a few figures of his own.

ELECTION NIGHT
 IN BRIDGEPORT Remarkable Display of En- thusiasm Greeted News of
 Democratic Victory Successful Democratic Can didates, Headed By May or Buckingham, Led the Parade.

Scenes of the widest enthusiasm marked the reception of the tidings of the country wide Republican rout in this city. Like wild fire, from tidings of the Baldwin victory as forecasted in the regular edition Of The Farmer yesterday. Confirmed by the complete election returns of the city compiled in the Farmer extra which sold like hot cakes the tidings of Democratic victory drew forth a demonstration of jubilation such as has never before been recorded here even in the height of the most sensa- tional National campaigns.
 Cold. damp winds, occasional fur ries of snow and rain, and miserable walking could not suppress the en- thusiasm of the election throng. And as the big cities of the State. New Haven, Hartford and Waterbury, ad- ded their big Democratic majorities by teiegraphic flashes to this city, and the Baldwin triumph became as- Sured, the night was rent by cheering, the din of horns and drums. the honks of auto horns, the ringing of bells the inspiring music of brass bands and the tramp of thousands of sturdy electors turning out to take part in the Greatest Democratic tri- umph in decades.
 Within few minutes after o'clock when the polls were closed, the re- turns from the Twelfth district, where with despatch and accuracy the cleo tion officials made record time in get ting their figures in both voting pre- cincts, clearly foreshadowed the out come. By six o'clock the atmosphere was saturated with the enthusiasm of an old time Democratic sweep and with irresistible force it brought crowds from all parts of the city to the busy centers where the returns were displayed and to the street cor ners where newsboys were reaping golden harvests with extra Farmers.
 Though the assurances of Judge Baldwin's election sufficed to sur charge the night with a wild desire to celebrate, the keenest interest was displayed in the outcome of the great Congressional fight in the Fourth Dis trict, and the contest for County Sheriff. All telephone wires in the Farmer office were kept busy well. in to the morning with eager seekers for the latest returns from these two fights.

BRYAN'S VIEWS
Result is Emphatic Protest Against Policies of
 Republicans.

Lincoln, Neb. Nov. Civilian J. Bryan, whose bolt from Dahlman the Democratic gubernatorial nomi- nee, on the liquor issue, unquestion- ably elected Aldrich, today, issued the following statement:
 ''The results indicate that the Dem ocrats have Congress by a safe ma jority and have made a number of gains in the Senate. This may be considered an emphatic protest against the policies of the Republican party, the tarin question being the immediate cause of the revolt and the largest factor in the election Now, with good Congressional rec ord as basis, the Democrats will enter the next Presidential campaign with confidence. There is every req son why the Democrats of the coun- try should feel encouraged

TO FIGHT ON
Defeated Candidate Smses Says Election is Mere
 Incident

New York, Nov. 9.-Henry l.. Stin1- son, defeated candidate for Governor, gave out the following statement, to- day:
 T believe this election is a mere incident in our fight for progress, which will go on until it's ends are attained. The leadership of the Re- publican party is in the hands of progressives and we do not propose to be discouraged by any temporary setback. Instead we feel confident this fight appealed to all men of all parties, who are looking forward and that eventually they will be found enrolled with us in the fight for the same end.
 There is so much to be done, to make our political life clean and so many problems to be worked out by the thoughtful and patriotic men, [ have no fear on the permanency of a. reaction"

WILSON'S
 FINE RUN
E. J. Hill Has Found Out Name of Ills Opponent NorWaIk Stand Patter is Near- ing End of His Political
 Career.

Ebenezer J. Hill is going back to Congress for two years more-but what @ change! Two days ago he was a great Statesman; today he is only poor old discredited stand batter. The statesman" part of him has been shorn off, and Lynn W. Wilson did the shearing. =
 Hill is serving his last term in the National Legislature. His political death-knell was sounded yesterday. The man, who in the insolence of past majorities of 14,OOO boasted ar rogantly that he couldn't even re- member the name of his political op- ponent, has that name graven on his memory today and as long as he lives will never forget it.
 The question which interested Bridgeport more than any other re- suit of the election last night was, "Is Wilson elected?' And when the returns showed that he had lost by a small majority, a feeling of sorrow over the fact that Hill had won was shared by a feeling of pleasure over the tremendously reduced majority of lie sentiment which makes it scarcely probable that Hill will take the nonl- inatiOn again, and dooms him to de- feat if he does.
 The New York Herald said last Sum- day that Wilson had the hardest task of any Democratic nominee in the State and that if he defeated E.. J. Hill. he would be hailed as the poli- ticaI Noah of the Democratic ark. He didn't win, but he delivered such, a tremendous smash at Hills majority that it was the next best thing to an absolute victory and Wilson today is a greater man than E.. J. Hill.
 
 energetic and brainy campaign, ap- pealing to the intelligence of the vot- CTS, emitting appeals to party pre- judices and scorning to use any of the time-worn devices by which G. O.. P. politicians seek to befOg the is- sues and fool the people at each elec- ton.
 With a trained army of Government employees in the district working tooth and nail against him in open viola ton of the Governments injunction in that respect, Wilson succeeded in cutting down Hills majority by 12,000 votes and enormous gain. Without the expenditure of sums of money, with out the use of a powerful political machine, and basing his appeals to the voters solely on their intelligence and by a scientific analysis of HilPs record, Wilson succeeded in making this tremendous stride and his wonder full run IS today the marvel or the Connecticut campaign.
 E. J. Hill had better have retired or been defeated than return to Wash ington under his present circum- stances, his majority gone, his pride punctured and his power shorn. The Democrats will have a working ma jority in the next session of Congress and the strident voice of Connecticut's Congressman from the 4th will no longer exercise it's wOnted sway against labor and in favor of the in- terests All credit to the man whose campaign of education made such tremendous strides against the cam paign of political spells, government intrigue and misrepresentation.

BEVERAGE CONE
Hoping Against Hope That hdi' ana Legislature Will be
 Republican

Indianapolis. Nov. 9.-Asserting that only the official returns would convince him that Senator Beveridge cannot be reelected. Republican Chairman Lee found, during the day. the chances of a Republican legisla- ture on joint ballot, dwindling. Suf- ficient returns had been received. this morning, to indicate that the Demo- crats will control the legislature on joint ballot by from 10 to 25.
 Senator Beveridge, himself, declar- ed, early today, that the legislature would be Republican.
 John W. Kern describes the late assertion of Chairman Lee as "a last wiggle."

 IN WEST VIRGINIA

Wheeling, Va, Nov. Slate re- turns indicate that the Democrats have elected four of five Congress men in West Virginia and have se- cured a majority of 21 in joint bal lot of the legislature.
