RULE
IN MASSACHUSETTS
Mccall Carries Entire State
Ticket 10 Victory.

Boston,, Nov. 4.-The Republican
party regained control of the legisla-
tive department of the state govern
ment after an interim of five years,
when Samuel w. Mccall, a former
congressman, was elected governor
by a plurality of 6606 over Governor
David l. Walsh, Democrat. The re-
mainder of the Republican state tick
ct was elected by larger pluralities,
and the Republicans made a net gain
of seventeen seats in the legislature.
Returns indicate the probable adop-
ton of constitutional amendments
empowering the legislature to enact
laws providing for the different rates
of taxation on various classes of prop
erty and authorizing the purchase by
the state OF land for demonstrating
purposes.
A revision of the returns showed
the complete vote of the state for
governor and lieutenant governor and
on the suffrage amendment to be as
follows:
For governor-Samuel w. Mccall.
Republican, 235,918; David I Walsh,
Democrat, 229,312; William Shaw,
Prohibition, 1924; Nelson B. Clark,
Progressive, 1894.
For lieutenant governor-Calvin
Coolidge, Republican, 250,940; Ed
ward P. Barry, Democrat, 203,266.
The makeup of the new legislature
Is:
Senate-Republicans, "a; Demo
Gratis, 6; a net gain of one Republi-
can. neutrality-suspicious., 169; DEM
ocrats, 70; Socialist, one; a net gain
of sixteen Republicans. This gives
the Republicans a majority of 120 on
a joint ballot.
One feature of the election was the
dwindling of the Progressive vote to
a figure which deprives the party to
a standing in the state. Three years
ago, Charles S. Bird, Progressive can
didate for governor, polled 1885, 02
votes, and in 1918 he increased this
to 1855, running ahead Of the Re-
publican nominee.

upon the amount of such difference
in living expenses. The determin-
ing factor, In the opinion OF The Re-
publican, is that the judges are not
required to reside at the capital.
They may even hold terms of court
at other places in the state.
The supreme court considers at
some length the question of whether
this expense fund is a fee, p%erquisite
compensation or emolument," all of
which are forbidden by the constitu-
5tion. Reference is made to the pro-
vision in the federal constitution
that the president Of the United
States shall not receive during his
term any "emolument' aside from his
salary. For nearly a century, the
president has been furnished with a
home, horses, carriages, servants,
household equipment and many other
things incidental to and appropriate
to his high office. by the act of
1906, the president is allowed $780,
900 per annum for his actual expens-
les and this money may be expended in
the discretion of the president and
accounted for on his certificate sole
ly. In other words. he is to be final

allowance than that made to the III
preme court judges, which is intend
ed to cover specific items of actua'

tbeen %eanvassed by the legislature. II
Is also pointed out by the court thai
at no place does the constitution In
any way prohibit the payment of ex'
Ipenses OF supreme court judges O

officers.
The courts opinion disposes final
