.OfMOC WINS Out
Result In Massachusetts
Prssagss Republic
S: can Defeat =g..z

!. Brockton. Mass, March 2e--The
national political weathercock turned,
towards the democrats in Massa-
chusetts yesterday, when the old
Colony section. one of the republican
strongholds of the state. placed
Eugene N. Foss of Boston, one OF the
.oountry's leading exponents of
reciprocity with Canada, in the con-
greselonal seat of the late William e.
Lowering. -.
Mr.. Foss accomplished what was
regarded as almost q political miracle,
turning republican plurality of
IA, 25O into q democratic victory of
5.840.
The result Is considered of more
than statewide Importance, for Mr..
F0es stumpeQ the fourteenth district
on national questions and the people
backed him up with q whoop.
It was the first contest to be decided
by the voters since the Payne-Aldrlch
tariff bill became operative and had
peculiar interest on that account. MIR.
Foss, who has figured In several
campaigns, first as republican and
latterly al q democrat, with moderate
protectionlst leanings, Is well known
in the northeastern states and IN
Canada as q champion of Canadian
reciprocity, an issue which led him to
leave the republican party last year
and become the democratic candidate
for lieutenant governor. He failed by
only 8, 900 votes to carry the state at
that time.
Another subject which was discussed
in the campaign was the high cost of
living. The democratic campaigners
charged the Payne-Aldrlch tariff bill
and the failure of the republican party
to properly supervise the trusts, with
being mai My responsible for the high
cost Of living. This attack was met
by Senator Henry Cabot Lodge.
Mr.. Foss in replying argued against
Nh. Lodges allegation to world " ide
upward price movement.
The fourteenth district has been the
most consistently republican district
IN Massachusetts,, having never before
elected q democrat to congress. Con-
gresham Lowering carried the district
in 1908 by IA, 250 and it appeared at
the time of Congressman Lowering 8
death last winter, that q man canvass
ing under democratic colors would
0avo ~ 0Vpo Wu0toVoI.
Representative Foelker of New
York, who has internationally voted
with the insurgents, said:
My state has gone to smash, and
that's all there is to 1t. There Is no
use trying to aLgne . that this election
has no bearing on the coming con-
gTessi0nal election. 1t proves very
conclusiVely to me that the democrats
will carry the house.
