ELECTION sIGRIHCAECEs

While it is too early. TO grasp the full mean
ing OF Yesterdays elections, both MASSACHUSETTS,
and New Jersey appear to have given the Wilson
administration fIattering Endorsement: 1t is
true that the normal opposition to Democracy,
often triumphant, especially in Massachusetts,
has been split between the conservative Repub-
licans and the Progressives. Yet it is not to be
doubted that large part Of the vote that elected
James +. Fielder governor of New Jersey and
David /, Walsh governor of Massachusetts was
east in support of President Wilson and his pol
icies. In Massachusetts, the Progressiyes have
made significant gains also, the Republican can
didate running third.
The New York city election was triumph for
the forces of civic morality. Mitchels views on
certain economic questions, notably land-tax and
imprvyement-asse were strongly opposed.
But economic questions faded beside the supreme
question OF whether Tammany candidate
should be allowed to ride into office on the
shoulders of the people. BY their emphatic vote
Of yesterday, the New Workers showed plainly
that they abhor and repudiate the long standing
alliance between Tammany and vice, between
Iammary and the privileged plunder of the. PEG.
pie There has never been in American politics
2 more conspicuous instance of the triumph of
decency and moral backbone over indecency and
moral flabbiness. New York has spoken loud for

.JlNkS REMOVED
FROM JUDICIARY
BUILDING

! The eofiln-shaped patch on the
floor OF the judiciary building. one Of
the unique distinguishing marks
since the remodeling OF that struc-
ture and which has been creating
some perturbation among the more
superstitious employees around the
building was effaced today. A work
man appeared this morning and cut
out the design, inserting . new patch
OF rectangular form.
The peculiar outlines given the or.
iginal patch TO the floor covering
were unintentional, but several en-
ployes who witnessed Il warned the
workmen that Il meant death 10 some
one connected with the affair. They
are now recalling the tragedy Of 10
days ago. when the man who was In
stalling the furniture, committed sui-
eide. No plausible explanation for
the death was Learned. and now the
superstitious ones around the build
ing are openly rejoicing In the
change OF the patch design. Some
even declare the old one was Q -ka-
huna. and assert that IN former dayn
.Hawaiiansg could not have been In.
.duced to enter the building II they
knew OF the design.
The workmen who are removing
the thing stoutiy deny superstition;
had anything to do with the decision
TO alter It. but the fact remains that
the original piece Of work was per-
fecly good so far 40 workmanship ii
concerned, and that the change Il
made only for the purpose Of chang.
ing It's form.
