ahead in a number Of counties.
The ballots cast were ten feet square
and had to be dropped into milk cans
and other such like receptacles, the
regular boxes being too small to hold
them. For this reason returns are un-
usually late.
Three constitutional amendments
were voted upon and all three are
believed to have carried. One was to
increase the borrowing capacity of

the proceeds to be used for port and
transit developments.
Mccall Wins in Massachusetts,.
Boston, Nov 3.-In one of the heavi-
est votes cast in this state in years.,
Samuel Mccall, Republican candidate
for governor, was elected by small
majority. Calvin Coolidge, the Repub-
lican candidate for lieutenant COVER

for lieutenant governor. Returns so
far received from all over the state in
dictate that the whole Republican state
ticket will be elected.

gressive parties lost their party stand
ing in the state. Boston cut the Demo
cratic majority to about $1,000. Re-
turns are coming in slow.

the second time, Republican gov
eminent at present being in power.
Allegheny county is known to have
gone more than 1900 Republican, and
the entire G. o. P. county ticket is
believed to have been elected.
Democratic politicians are claiming
that the result will narrow down to
Baltimore city and that the outcome
here viii determine whether Emerson
G. Harrington, Democrat. or O. E..
Weller, Republican, will sit in the
governors chair at Annapolis for the
next four years.
