TAMMANY IS
VICTOR BUT
LOSES STATE:
Democrats Win in Manhattan
and Bronx But RepubIi-
cans Have Legislature.
SOCIALIST AssEMBL YmAN

New York, Nov. $50 complete was
the cleaning from the Republican
viewpoint in the assembly that the
Democrats were crushed and the Re
publicans were lifted to sort of
seventh heaven of delight. Practically
all the up state districts, which last
| year in the Democratic landslide were
turned into the Democratic column
returned to the Republican fold
| In Kings county. the city of Brook.
| lyn and the so called county towns, 1t
looks as If the Republican Fl earst coun-
| ty ticket had won by very small ma
| Jority. The Brooklyn Eagle says that
former Police Commissioner Cropsey,
the Fusion candidate for district attor-
ney in Kings county. is elected by
about 1900 and the Fusion Judiciary
ticket by about 10000. Willett, for SUI
| preme court judge ON the regular Dem
| ocratic ticket, who is accused of turn
| ing over to the Democratic organiza-
tion $4,000 on the day he was nomi-
| mated, IS running about 5000 behind
his other two colleagues on the ticket.
The returns indicate that this year
the assembly will stand: Republicans
| t02: Democrats, Al; Socialist, /.
This means rebuke apparently to
the administration OF Governor Dix.
| In passing. it may be observed thar
many Republicans win regard the
winning of the assembly as of doubt
full value in view of the presidential
and more important state election in
1912 To be sure the Republican as
sembly can checkmate Democratic
senate and make 1t impossible for the
Democratic governor to either veto OF
approve.
But the Republican party must as
sumo the responsibility of the acts of
a Republican assembly, and therefore
many old and tried Republican lead
ers in the state do not hesitate to sny
that they thought 1t would be better
politics If the Democrats won again
this year and the entire responsibility
therefore placed with the Democratic
party
So far as the returns. show. the most
interesting features of the election in
the state are the victory of the Social
lists in the municipal election ID Sche-
nectady and the defeat of Thomas Mott
Osborne. one OF Governor Dix's most
Intimate friends. for mayor OF An,
burn. Osborne is the leader of the
Democratic party of Cayuga and is re-
garded as a reform Democrat of the
silk stocking type He has always
been bitter opponent of Charles E.
Murphy and Tammany Hall and ali
that Tammany stands for and was one
of the most active supporters OF the
late Edward NJ Shepard in his eandi
daey for United States senator iast
winter. 1t was said before that time
that Murphy would gun for Osborne
until he got his scalp Apparently the
Osborne scalp is hanging at the belt
OF the Tammany chief.
The municipal election In schenec-
tady was indeed remarkable, inas
much as ii is the first time in the bis
tory of politics In the state Of New
York when the Socialists carried IN
entire ticket OF any kind.
