dents will not number more than TWEEN

by an overwhelming majority.
State officers were involved in the

Think He Is overloyal.

One note of criticism heard in the
Hobbies was that Premier Asquith was
carrying loyalty to his colleagues to an
extreme. and that instead of standing
up for them he should throw them
over. There was also strong feeling
in favor of Sir Edward Carson's view
OF what the cabinet should be. In this
connection the general opinion was
that there ought to be five members of
the inner cabinet, so as to include Sir
edward Grey and DAVID Lloyd George.
Premier AsQuith's reference to the
pressing need of national economy is
believed to indicate his intention of
imposing still more drastic taxation as
the only method of enforcing such
economy.
Among the London. morning papers
which have been the most severe crit
les of the government the Post is to-
day its strongest anita gonist. The Mail
confines itself to the claim that Mr..
Asauith conceded several points which
had been constantly pressed upon him
in our columns"

One feature of the election was the
dwindling of the progressive vote to a

Bird and Joseph Walker last years
and the result indicated that they car.

Prohis Regain Status.
The prohibition party, on the other
hand, attained the status of lega
party by polling more than tho re-
quired 3 per cent of the total vote
William Shaw, the nominee for gov
ernor, made an active stumping cam
paign in an endeavor to attract the
vote of former pregressives.
The vote cast for Mccall was the
largest, with one exception, ever pollec
by a candidate for governor in this
state, and the total vote was only sons
10000 behind the record.
During the campaign. Mccall. while
charging democratic extravaganza In
the state and criticising appointments
made by Gov Walsh, directed his en-
ergies chiefly to attacking the national
administration. Walsh declined tc
take up the gage on. behalf Of Presi-
dent Wilson. asserting that questions
of national policy had no part In state
campaign, and devoted himself to de.
Tense of his own actions as governor
and to charges of invisible govern
ment controlling the republican party
for improper purposes.
The total vote on tire woman Suffrage

behind that for governor. showed the
widespread interest taken In the sub
ject.
A movement for the recall Of Mayor
James NJ Curley of Boston failed. AL
though its advocates mustered ma
jority of 1860. they failed to win thu
majority Of the registered vote re
quired under the city charter.
