entire Republican state ticket was elect
ed by large margins.
The only spirited contest was for state
treasurer, and the Democratic nominee,
Chandler NJ. Wood, succeeded in making
Fred j. Burrell, Republican, run far be-
hind the head of the ticket. Burrell was
elected, however, by a plurality of 1890.
Although the Democrats gained four
seats in the house of representatives the
Republicans gained three in the senate
and will have their usual large majority
in both branches.
More complete returns today on the
off-year election yesterday i'll several
states did not change the outcome in any
important respect. The smashing vic
tory of Calvin Coolidge, Republican, in
Massachusetts reelected as governor by
the largest vote ever polled by guber-
material candidate in that state shared
honors with an almost equally decisive
dry" victory in Ohio as the most strik-
ing results OF lne NOllilP.
As a possible indication of the drift
of popular sentiment preparatory to the
national election next year yesterdays
results were being closely scrutinized by
party leaders Kentucky was swept into
the Republican fold in the goyernorshiI
fight, but today's returns made it Ger,
tain that New Jersey had reverted tc
the Democratic column. Maryland, the
only other state in which there was a
serious contest for the governorship, was
still in doubt with the Democratic can
didate leading.
In New Jersey Edward |. Edwards
Democrat, running on wet" platform
had an apparently safe lead of almost
- 900 over Newton A. X. Bugbee, Re
publican.
The defeat of Gov J. d. Black Demo
crat. for reelection in Kentucky whert
Edwin d. Morrow, his Republican oppon
ent, was credited today with pluralit!
approaching 10000 probably, will b
more discussed than any other state re
suit by party managers who have thei
eyes fixed on next years campaign. Le
NJ. Russell, Democrat, was elected gov
ernor of Mississippi by the usual ma
jority.
In New York state the election turne
upon Judges of the supreme court, Tam
many hall candidates suffering complet
defeat. In the city Representative F. T
La Guardia. Republican, was leadin
Robert L. Moran, the Tammany Demo
crat, for president of the board of alder
men, but an official recount may be nee
essary.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-The gov
ernment cannot accept the proposal of
organized labor to end the coal strike
by vacating the injunction against the
officials of the United Mine Workers of
America Assistant Attorney Gener--
'al Ames, in the absence of Attorney
General Palmer announced today that
the government could not abandon its
position because the strike was in vio-
lation of law
Refusal of the government to vacate
the injunction means long fight in
the coal fields while its withdrawal
would have opened the way for set
tlement of the strike within As hours,
according to Edgar Wallace. legisla-
tive representative of the United Mine
Workers of America.
Judge Ames issued the following
statement: s'The strike is a violation
of law. AS long as it continues we are
going to proceed in the court The
dispute between the mine owners and
workers is an entirely different ques-
| tion that they can settle in their own
| way The government cannot tolerate
continued violation of the law such as
this strike constitutes =
Labor leaders who had taken an
hopeful view of the strike situation
after hearing of Samuel Gompers's sug-
gestion for a settlement were plainly
disturbed by news that the department
of justice would let the injunction
stand. All agreed that it would keep the
strike going for some time. This also
was the view of the operators.
Representatives of the mine workers

Seven Inches in Marlboro and Five on
Anes Hill-Thin Mantle in Brat
tleboro This Morning.

Brattleboro received thin mantle OF
snow this morning, the first of the season.
Rain began falling late last night, and
apparently it was part of the storm which

A HI. Stearns, driver of the Whining
ton-Brattleboro stage, reported this fore
noon that there was eight inches of snow
on Hogbaek mountain and seven inches in
Marlboro, making travelling difficult. On
Ames hill the depth of snow was reported

Some of the farmers in the hill sections
having cattle in the pastures have found
it advisable to get the stock home today

loATH TO GIVE UP ARmoR
Mobiles Wore It as Gala Costume Long
After II Was Of Any Value
~ as Protection.

Until the sixteenth. century armor de-
veloped in logical way; its forms
were governed by the necessities Of
war, changes in 1t were the result of
practical experience and actual experi-
ment on the battleaeld-not decided
upon in the ONCE of the minister Of
war.
After the sixteenth century it be-
came fantastic and meaningless, a gala
costume rather than harness; the
greatest captains opposed its use, but
the mobiles chung to 1t as mark OF
distinction.
After 1t was made bulletproof 1t be-
came so enormously heavy that at the
end of the sixteenth century Lanone
complained that gentlemen Of thirty
were already deformed by the weight
of their armor.
In spite of the huge armors of Henry
VIII, of Anthony of Burgundy and of
some others, the average size Of the
modern man is greater than that Of the
soldier Of the middle ages and the re-
Nuisance, if we can judge from the
armOrs preserved in the museums Of
England and the Continent, which are,
with few exceptions, small and mar
row, especially in the leg and thigh
pieces.
