Rochester. April eo-Political diagncsti-
clans here continue 10 disagree regarding
the cause OF the startling political reyOlu-
ton which took place yesterday In the
I'D Congress District The Democrats
insist that the election Of their candidate.
James s. Havens. was due to dissatis-
faction with the operation of the new
tariff law. the high cost OF living. which
they attribute TO the tariff, and 20 a gen.
erai dissatisfaction with the Republican
national administration. The Republicans
maintain that the overturn was caused by
personal opposition 10 their candidate.
George ". AIdridge. and with his regime
as the political arbiter OF Monroe County.
Whichever OF these diagnoses Is correct
one fact remains, which makes the result
OF wide Importance. This is tho typical
character OF the district where the revolu-
ton occurred.
Rochester and the surrounding towns
form distinctly an average American COM
munity. The nature OF their pursuits and
industries gives rise TO great variety Of
interests. No one industry and no ono
class Of citizenship can be said 10 pre-
dominate. For this reason the significance
OF the election appeals 10 those who have
been watching for what Rochester would
do as an index OF what might occur In
