10 Assemblymen and
7 Aldermen Chosen
Defeat of Mitchell Called
a Body Blow at I'm
perialism

Socialists were gratified yesterday
they had elected seven members Of the
Board of Aldermen. ten members of the
Assembly and Municipal Court judge
and had given Morris Hillquit. their
candidate for Mayor, total vote of
l42,l7S. or four and half times the So
ciaist vote for Charles Edward Russell
four years ago.
The gain over Mr.. Russell's otal o.
32,133 was 1905. Hillquit ran just
1922 votes behind Mitchell.
II is the first time in history that the
Socialists have ever been represented
in the Board of Aldermen, and the dec
tion of 4 Municipal Court judge also
sets a precedent. The election OF ten
Assemblymen is gain Of eight. the
Socialists already having had two mem
bers in the Assembly.
Panken Elected Judge
Perhaps the most conspicuous result
of the election, from a Socialist point
of view, was The selection ~ East Side
voters of Jacob Panken for judge OF
the Municipal Court. I'd District, which
includes all of the East Side south OF
Fourteenth Street Panken received
13.S49 votes, as against 6.37s received
by Gustav Hartman, Republican, the
present incumbent For years Panken
has been dominating personality
among the denizens Of the East Side,
.ppearing as an agitator at their meet
ings. directing some Of their strikes
and. as a lawyer, lighting what ne
called the battles of the poor people.
Gifted with effective oratoricsl pow
ers and a commanding voice, Panken,
his long nair tumbling over his fore
head. and his arms we'll used TO drs-
matte effect, has held thousands OF
his followers spellbound. In he last
six months he mas taken an active part
IN pacifist agitation on the East Side
where pacifists are numerous. lie was
elected chairman of the Workne
Council. which embraces the member
shin of the United Hebrew Trades,
which also is branch OF the Peoples
Council. 1873 West Thirteenth Street.
As the head Of the Workmen's Council
Panken has fought Samuel Gompers
tooth and nail, claiming that Gompers
"has tried to deliver the interest OF
labor over to the militarist parry
Much significance was alta he'd by
the Socialists to the fact that he in
crease in their vote for greater New
York was uniform in all the i've Dor
oughs. The figures show that in every
borough they gained 400 TO 800 per
cent over four years ago. The Socialist
Mayoralty vote, compared with that OF

was found that he had acted in good
faith. The sale Of the personal proper

to consider whether the homestead
brought an adequate price as the pur

The stings Of poverty are often tie
incentives that stir to action. A fellow
Will bestir himself mighty hard before
ne will starye. And II he has the right
seif-respect he will go the limit before
ne VIII resort to charity. AL over the
land there are men looking for fellows
with the right metal for big enter
prises. When they see fellow trying
to make good they usually see that he
gets the chance. In the hustle for
bread and butter habits are formed
that often lead to marked efficiency.
Necessity often starts movements that
result In untold good. What is COM
