RESULT MIXED
IN NEW YORK
Republicans Control the Lower
House Of Legislature.
.TAMMANY WINS IN THE CITY

Elected judiciary and County Ticket,
Fsut Were Defeated In Brooklyn and
Kings County.
New York. Nov. 8. - The Republi.
cans In the state OF New York have
captured the only redoubt that was
possibel to capture In this election.
The only state ticket in the field was
the assembly ticket for election TO
the lower house OF the state legisla-
ture.
A year ago-=-the Democratic land
slide year-the New York assembly
stood So Democrats to SO Republicans.
This year the assembly will stand:
Republicans. 102: Democrats, AZ;
Socialists, |.
This means stinging rebuke, ap-
parently. to the administration of Gov.
ernor Dix. In spite of Democratic pro-
testations to the contrary, the peo.
pie OF the state seem to agree that,
with all departments of the state gov.
ernment In the hands of the Demo
Gratis. little or nothing has been ac-
complishcd. II Is probably for this
reason, more than any other, that
there has been such a marked rever-
sal over the result OF last year. In
passing. II may be observed that many
Republicans will regard the winning
OF the assembly as of doubtful value.
In view of the presidential and more
important state election In 1912. To
be sure the Republican assembly can
checkmate a Democratic senate and
make 1t impossible for the Democratic
governor to either veto or approve.
But the Republican party must as
sumo the responsibility of the acts OF
Republican assembly and. therefore.
many old and tried Republican leaders
in the state did not hesitate to say
before that they thought 1t would be
better politics ii the Democrats won
again this year, and the entire respon-
sibility, therefore. placed with the
Democratic party.
In New York city there has been a
final fight between the allied forces

Although Hearst and his Republi-

 The theatre is no more tastefully ar
 ranged than the hotels. In the afternoon
 the people of the better class attend: at
 night, the people of the lower class. The
 music is invariably good, the singing and
 acting of the most amateurish nature. No attempts at fancy dressing on the part of the actors or actresses are made. The prima donna, in other words, wears the simple and undecorated gowns of the or dinary people. It is remarkable that Mexican women do not make use in ger sonal ornamentation of the rare laces and
 drawn work in the making of which they are universally acknowledged proficient. On account of the rare appearance of
 the women of the rich families, a visitor
 has little opportunity to get an accurate
 impression of the famed beauty of the Spanish female The women who are as commonly on the streets, however, as the
 men. are not at all attractive. They are too brown, or too red, and none of their features save the large brown eyes and the coal black hair are of sufficient force
 to cause a person to look more than once. The men as a rule are untidy to a marked degree. The dress is not at all attrac- tive. The women wear skirts of coarse
 material while shaw or red or black, hanging from their heads to a point be- low the waists, conceals the entire upper
 portion of the body. The men wear coarse trousers, coats generally of lighter or
 more gaudy color, and either large straw hats or felts of a very cheap variety.
 There are no frame houses in Mon- terey. This is due to the fact that the country produces no timber, and to the additional fact that there is everywhere building stone and mud prepared purpose ly, it seems, for adobe work
 Government Owns Lines
 The government owns the railroads, tel egraph and telephone lines. The railroad system is as a rule good, but furnishes
 not half the comforts that the American
 railroads furnish. The Nacionales de Mexico from Mexico City crosses the American border, and it's every train is carefully searched, by the Americans to the north and the Mexicans to the south of the Rio Grande. The personal effects
 of passengers are opened and pried into,
 it being the intention evidently to permit
 nothing of a revolutionary or dutible
 character to pass uninvestigated.
 The telegraph facilities are fair. There gre no long distance telephone lines.
 The street railroad system of Monterey
 is owned by American interests and is eS-
 cellent. It's cars are oivided into two sections, the people entering rom either
 side at the center. The first section is
 known a sthe ''primera clase,' and the
 second as the "segunda clase." One can
 ride in either as he chooses, but there are different rates. It seems that different

 In Cullman
PULLMAN PROTESTS

| Cullman, November 22.-(Special 1.-The
 fact that the Southern Bell Telephone
 oompanys officials, when in Cullman a
 few days ago, when Vice President Hoxey
 made it known to the board of directors
 of the Cullman Commercial club, that | their investment In Culman represented
 valuation of s460O0, created some doubt | in the minds of the officials of the Com | mercial club and a number of the citi- zens. The fact that the telephone com l pany is claiming a depreciation of per
 cent on the investment in Cullman is one
 of the reasons that the raise in the rates | Is to be made to meet this depreciation | has been the cause of an investigation to
 be started which will likely result in this
 matter being arrived at accurately. Secretary Buell. of the Commercial club has taken the matter up with Messrs Harrison X Houston, engineers of Bir- mingham, who in reply to a letter sent them relative to the claims of the Bell company has almost confirmed the opinion of the board of directors and Secretary Buell. that the claims or the company are entirely too high.
 IL io qultc Ihtly lildI the matter Ol forming local company will be taken up
 at the special meeting to be held next week, as from what has been said by the | representatives of the Bell company there is little hope that any concessions will be ! reached and the citizens will not pay the increase in the rates.
 At recent meeting of the city council resolution was passed calling for bids on one and possibly two more bored wells | for the use of the city's water plant This matter has been under consideration for several weeks, but not until the re- cent meeting was the matter fully dis posed of. Bids for this work are wanted at once.

rates, by the way, should be charged in Birmingham, those having seats to pay the higher rate and those forced to stand the cheaper. The different rates charged, based on accommodation rendered on Mexican street cars, is the only advan- tage, it would appear, that Mexico has over America.
 There is a motorman and three conduc- tors on each car. The first conductor takes your fare and gives you a slip of paper The second conductor, moment later, takes this slip of paper, tears it slightly, and returns it. The third conduc- tor then takes up this slip of paper, rends it into threads and throws it away. It seems that the company desires to have three checks on every fare, this indicating slight lack of faith in the integrity of the conductors.
