VICTORY FOR HOME RULE
IN MURPHY'S OPINION
Sees Rebuke to Harding and
Republican Tariff.

Charles r. Murphy made the follow
ing statement last night:
II never had any doubt or Gov.
Smiths election. His large plurality
vindicates the Judgment OF the delegates
60 tho Syracuse convention. The great
strength he showed there was much in
creased by the generous support of the
independents, who have had a chance TO
compare the two years OF Gov. Miller
y iii the two years OF Gov. Smith. The
comparison favored the Democratic
Governor.
Gov Smith made no promises that
lie failed to keep. Experience shows
that tho people DO not forget officials
who break their pledges.
His wonderful vote Is a great tribute
20 Gov Smith. 1t Is an Endorsement
OF his fight for home rule for New York
and other cities OF the state. 1t tells the
country that this State Is against the
Harding Administration and the Repub-
iican tariff laws. II will hearten the
Democracy OF the nation and brighten
tho prospects for 1924.
we hope the final returns will show
that Gov. Smith will have Democratic
Legislature to help him fuinll tho party
platform pledges. Every element OF the
party has helped in the victory.
"The gratitude OF tho Democracy OF
the state Is due to Mr.. Hearst for his
hearty and loyal support"

OF early returns from the larger cities
OF Indiana Samuel NJ. Ralston (Dem.)
appears to be a winner over Albert
J. Beveridge (Rep.) in the race for
the United States Senate. The indi-
cations, however. were that the vote
would be exceptionally close.
From 1908 out OF 1896 precincts in
tho state tho returns give Ralston
221.54S; Beveridge, 2oo,744; Henry
(Soc), 149.
Beveridgc also was running behind
Merrill Moores, Republican candidate
for reelection TO Congress from this
district. Moores being slightly ahead
Of Joseph Turk, his Democratic oppo-
nent, who was on a wet platform.
The Indications were that Moores
would carry this district by 1000
votes and that Beverldge would lose
the district by 5000 votes. Two years
ago the Republicans carried the dis
irict by $4,000.

Templeton Gets Margin of

1t Is 10000.

Special Dispatch 20 THE Npw York HERALD
HARTFORD, Nov. 7.-Connecticut will
remain Republican by more than 10000
votes. Unofficial figures from 120
towns out OF total OF 169 in the State
give United States Senator George p.
Mclean. Republican nominee for re-
election. lead OF 21.C0O over Thomas
J. Spellacy. his Democratic opponent.
Lieut.-Gov. Charles A. Templeton,
nominee for Governor on the Republi-
can ticket, is leading David Il. tits-
gerald (Dem.) by 10000. Tho towns
which remain to be heard from are
small ones and could not possibly
change the result. The remaining re-
turns are expected TO swell slightly
tho Republican lead. as the strength
OF the Democrats lay in tho larger
cities. J. Henry Roraback. chairman
of the Republican State Central Com
mittee, claims that the Republicans
have carried the state by 10000. but
the figures indicate that the majority
probably will not be much moro than
%, 900.
The figures FOR los towns out OF 169
in the state were:
For Senator-McLean (Rep.), 12s,-
046 Spellacy CDem.). 1881.
For Governor--Tcmpleton (Rep),
i2s,712. Fitzgerald (Dem). 1882.
spellacy is showing much less strength
than David Il. Fitzgerald, Democratic
candidate for Governor. The fact that
spcllacy Is running behind Fitzgerald II
laid chiefly to the publication OF eorre-
spondence sent out from his Office when
he was Assistant Attorney-General un-
der A. Mitchell Palmer.
This correspondence, which has proved
the chief subject OF argument In the
fight between Speilacy and Mclean, was
sent out for the purpose OF obtaining
delegates to vote for Palmer at tho
Democratic National Convention. Spell
lacy claimed that the letters had been
stolen from his files at the direction Of
Bruce Bielaslsi, who gave them 10 WIN
H. Hays. who in turn is alleged 10 have
turned them over TO Roraback for use
In the Connecticut campaign. Undoubt-
odiy the publication OF tho letters had
much TO do with Spellacy's low vote as
compared with that received by his
running mate, Fitzgerald.
Hartford gave Spellacy a majority
az $500. which is 1900 less than the
Democratic Mayor received here In the
election last April. New Haven gave

He wants to point out some Of the
defects in the social system that lead
men to prison, and he hopes to cnange
somewhat the attitude Of the public

While prisoner in the Minnesota
iState penitentiary, John G. Glynn
sought relief from the monotony and
gloom of prison existence by writ
ing poetry. He had not had many
advantages in the way Of schooling
and had never tried to write verse.
Nor was his job as laborer in the
prison plant particularly Inspiration
al to the muse. But in his cell at
night, he found that he had to have
something to DO. He couldn't sit
there and brood. So, he began writ
ing poems on scraps of paper, tore
them up, and wrote others.
Months passed, and, finally, not
long ago, Glynn was released from
prison. Celebrating his return to So
ciety as free man, ne has just pub
lished book of poetry-verses fash
toned during these days in prison.
The little volume bears the title,
Songs From the Silence" and con-
tains poems which have been accord
ed high praise by number Of quail
fed critics.
Though he worked all day as Ia
borer, Glynn wrote such verses as to
draw this exceptional tribute from
DR.. Richard Burton, professor of Eng
lish literature at the University of
Minnesota and a noted lecturer on
literature:
"Less than two months after the
author was set free from the prison
at Saltwater, Minnesota, l met him
and he put his poems into my hands.
Reading them, had poignant sense
of beauty that is song, the pathos of
human fate. l felt like one who finds
flower, dewy and fragrant, beside a
dusty road. The wind bloweth where
it listeth. There are lyrics in this
book, so truly lovely, so unfeignedly
simple and sincere, with such an in
fectious lilt and shine Of color, that
ones heart melts before them"
Professor Burton not only wrote an
introduction to the book Of verse,
but he sold the books from the plat
form himself that the message of the
poet might be given circulation. In
only few weeks, the first edition
was sold out. A second edition now
is being printed.
Finding himself in prison, GIynn
decided early that he wouldn't allow
his spirit to be Gagged. He was deter
mined Hot 20 brood over his misfor-
tune. Sc at every opportunity he
turned his mind to the forming of
verses. That became his recreation,
ia means Of expressing himself, and,
as he recalls it now, provided a relief
that frightened his whole prison life.
! Much of Glynn's poetry was writ
ten under extreme difficulties. AS
stated, he had never written any po-
etry. But he found out what ne could
about it, and kept everlastingly at it.
He spent all his evenings writing.
Even when he was at work among
the machines of the twine plant,
where he was stationed during the
days, he was thinking of lines for his
poems.
At first, Glenn wrote purely for
his own amusement. Then his poems
and paragraphs appeared in the
Prison Mirror. His column in The
Mirror, written under the name "Ap-
ache" soon attracted wide attention.
His offerings were reprinted in other
newspapers. Eventually, his poems
appeared in the magazines and in
some of the anthologies Of verse.
When he was released from prison
a few months ago, Glynn had two

They pigeonholed and numbered him,
but he kept faith and held a goal.
And stars and flowers in evenings

That applies to more men in pris-

continued Glynn. "You know, there
may be a whole lot that is bad in
these men in the penitentiary, but at
some test, when the occasion comes,
the souls Of many of them show up
white.
"Many men, caught in the grip Of
untoward circumstances, walk an

RAISING XMAS TREES

Why not? Most states prohibit the
shipment of Christmas trees from the
bug infested sections Of the East. We
must destroy the Forests. Everyone
wants Christmas trees. They are prof
liable. They bring moisture, they can
easily be sold at a snug profit. They
are easy to grow. They will create an
interest in forestation. A Christmas
tree on every farm!
Norway Spruce is best. White
Spruce will also make good Christmas
trees. Plant those that are called
once transplanted. The cost is from
$4,000 to $4,000 per 1000. The soil
must be we'll drained and fairly rich.
Any soil that is good for crops is good
for Christmas trees.
When the trees arrive dig a trench
and bury the roots. Pour plenty Of
water around the roots. Use enough
water to thoroughly soak the ground.
Leave the trees in this trench until
ready to plant.
Prepare the soil as for corn or any
crop. Put lines on the ground and
place stakes or other markers three
feet apart. Make the next row three
feet away. This will place the trees
three feet by three feet.
The holes must be dug so that the
little spruce can be planted a little
deeper than it was in the nursery.
When ready to begin the actual
planting take an old pail filed with
water. Take out a bunch of the trees
and put them in the pail to be carried
to the place Of planting. Lift one tree
at a time out of the water pail and
place in hole. Fill in with fine earth
roots.
After tramping the earth tight about
the roots level the ground with fine
earth and go to the mex tree. This
method Of planting will insure a 90 to
95 per cent growth.
The trees must be cultivated every
week to ten days. Cultivate just like
any other crop. In three years time
the trees will be from two to five feet
and are ready to begin selling.
Do not cut an entire row but take
one and leave one. The trees remain
ing will grow much faster and in two
years more will bring two to three
times more money.
A conservative estimate Is that the
trees will bring at four to five years
Of age an average price of $1.00 each.
At least the growing Of Christmas
trees will be profitable.
The selling Of Christmas trees is
easy. The biggest market in the world
is Chicago. The local market will use
most Of them for ONE years at least.
