DRIFT AGAINST REPUBLICANS.

The results of other elections in
the state of New York clearly demon
strate the reaction against the Repub-
lican party because of the dehation
in industry and employment. a
natural sequence OF the war. That
defiation has instilled in those who
have suffered from such result a
feeling of antagonism against the
party in power. 1t was expected by
some that with the election OF Presi-
dent Harding there would be an inn
mediate return of prosperity natural
under Republican auspices and that
after nearly year and half after the
signing of the armistice there would
be a propulsion of industrial opera
tons.
1t is a common occurrence that a
large part of every community which
depends upon wage scale Furnishes
the party in power whenever there is
a diminution of compensation. This
cycle is recurrent and because OF II
Democratic victories In this State have

ELECTION EFFECTS.

The municipal elections over n wIdc
cxpanse OF territory were freer fror,
partisan influences than the elections
for state officers, yet several notable
Democratic successes In these local
contests tend to confirm the observa-
ton that the Republican tide OF 1929
is ebbing. The New York Democrats
even staged very strong .con,r-

EASTERN SHORE ELECTIONS.

While the general results of last
Tuesdays elections were gratifying to
Democrats everywhere, the great
Democratic sweyp of nearly the entire
nine countie. of the Eastern Shore
OF Maryland is most encouraging TO
the Democrats OF Delaware. For the
results are fun OF significance.
Clear Democratic majorities were
returned In all of these counties ex-
ccpting Dorchester and Somerset,
long Republican strongholds, and
even there the Democratic vote showed
an increase. In Caroline county the
Democrats had a large majority, al
though Towers. the Republican can
didate for State Senator, who is said
to be man OF fine character, engag-
ing disposition and large popularity,
made a surprising gain among Demo-
cratic voters, and was successful by
more than six hundred majority
against a general Democratic major

DuBlIN'S FINEST
BUILDING BURNED
Custom House at Irish Capital
Is Set OF Fire by The
Sim feiners.
1000 SHOTS FIRED IN FIGHT
All Documents Of British Government
in ireland Relating 70 Customs,
Excise and Income Lost-Lib-
erty Hail Also Destroyed

Dublin, May 27.-The biggest coup
ever engineered by the Sim Fem

the documents of the British govern
ment in Ireland relating TO customs,
excise and income of the local govern
ment The damage will run into mil
lions OF dollars.
During the burning OF the $1,000
900 customs house, the most imposing
building in Dublin, a violent battle
ragged for hours. More than 5000 shots
were fired In the battle between the
republicans and the "black and tans."
Ten deaths have been recorded and
scores Of wounded are being cared
for. The dead include at least two
members of the "biack and tans."
Sixtyfve Sim Feiners were taken
prisoners.
When the Sim Felners rushed the
custom house they had complete pos
session Of il within a minute. The
staff of 200 stood about trembling
with their hands up while the raiders
dashed about the building sprinkling
gasoline, paying particular attention
to the parts of the building where the
important papers were stored.
Soon after its destruction began the
alarm reached the military who ar
rived in time to trap the raiders in
the blazing building. A terrific ma
chine gun rifle and revolver fusillade
ensued. The Sim Feiners made sew
eral desperate sorties in their efforts
TO escape, firing rs they came upon
the troops surrounding the burning
structure.
Several were seen TO fall in hand
to-hand conflicts. and when the last
party Of seven sailed out Dublin
Castle claims that only one ESCAPED.
The remainder are declared to have
been killed or wounded.
The "blacll and tans" stormed the
burning building after the last sally
and Dublin Castle claims that many
rebels then surrendered" Some of
them were found saturated with gaso-
line which they had poured on the
floors. 1t is believed that several of
the raiders were burned to death be-
lore the crown forces entered the
building.
The fire set by she raiders was soon
out of control by the fire brigade and
the great customs building was com.
pletely destroyed. Liberty hall. near
by, which was the Larkin headquar-
tiers during the 1916 rebellion. was
