Copeland Won ON Tariff
Issue, Declares Battle
Manager Says Victory Is Re-
buke TO Republican Weak
ness and Inefficiency

George Gordon Battle, campaign
chairman for Senator-elect Copeland,
in a statement at Copeland headquar-
ters last night said:
"The election OF DR.. Copeland to
the United States Senate is severe
rebuke to the Republican party for It's
infamous tariff bill and for the general
weakness and inefficiency Of the pres
ent administration. The men and
women of the state resent the imposi-
tion Of burden Of $4,000, COT, 900 each
year for the benefit Of greedy pro-
tected interests. They resent the fail
ure Of the Republican party to keep
its promises, and they have discovered
that the representations on which that
party won in 1920 were false and un-
founded
Dr. Copeland is deeply grateful. He
ccngratulates the people Of the state
on the election of the great Democrat
and public seryant Alfred e, Smith,"

Al Starts Cleaning City Home
10 Be Ready for Mope to Albany
Governor Elect, Used to Having Honors Thrust
Upon Him, Takes News of His Overwhelming
Victory With Smith Smile and Blushing Face

Alfred E. Smith, who makes his home
alternately at 25 Oliver Street, New
York City, and the Executive Mansion,
Albany, is busy this morning cleaning
out an accumulation of papers and
things that he has put away in the
storeroom of his city residence in
preparation for another move to the
city up tho Hudson on January /.
Even as early as 6 o'clock last night,
while the Governor-elect, his wife and
his children, whom he like to call his
gang" were entertaining few rela-
tives and friends in suite at the Hotel
Biltmore, Mr.. Smith received, over a
private wire, returns that indicated he
had been chosen for second time. It
was no new experience for this unusual
product Of the 4th Ward to have
honors thrust upon him by his fellow
citizens and he received the glad It'd
ings calmly, although the inimitable
"Al" Smith smile and flushed face
betrayed the feelings Of New York
Dem ocracy's favorite son.
One of the first things Governor
elect Smith did when assured Of VIC
tory was to telephone his mother, Mrs.
Catherine Smith, in Brooklyn. 81 am
elected, mother" said the son.
"My dear boy, AL" was the reply
from the proud gray-haired mother,
II know you are elected. l have al
ready read of it in the extra Of news
paper"
"I'll be over to see you in the morn
ing, mother" said the dutiful son, as
the conversation closed and the next
Governor of the greatest state in the
Union turned to discuss the events of
the day with numerous prominent men
I who were his visitors.
Smith Shows No Surprise
Mr.. Smith showed not bit of sur
prise, not even at the overwhelming
figures in his favor, hut he was
thoughtful. He was not the CAP
Smith his friends have been pleased to
see play part in "The Shaughran," or
hear sing that delightful Irish ditty
"Tim Toolin." He was once more the
Alfred E. Smith that Albany knew
when ehe had deep, weighty problems
Of state to grapple with. His de-
meanor was almost stern. After null
ing over the returns for q time he
came into the room where the re-
porters were gathered. He was carry
ing a newspaper that proclaimed his
victory. Earlier he had made state
ment that the result carried out his
prediction. To that he added:
"It Is impossible for me to have any
other feeling than one of great graft

Smiths Boom
For Presidency
Starts Quickly
Tremendous Victory Seenas
TO Insure Solid Back
ing From State in the
Next National Convention

Alfred e. Smith, on the prestige of
carrying the Empire state by close TO
half million, will again be the choice
for President of the New York dele
gates in the next Democratic National
Convention.
Following the confirmation Of his
victory last night, Che Smith men al
most to man began 10 discuss him
for the Presidency.
Governor Smith In 1920 received the
support of the solid New York delega-
tion at the San Francisco convention,
receiving upwards of 100 votes on the
first ballot. Following his defeat two
years ago in the Harding landslide by
! Governor Miller, talk of him for the
! Presidency was abandoned. With bis
smashing victory last night his friends.
once more became enthusiastic, and il
/ goes without saying that he will have
the enthusiastic backing Of the New
! Iork State Dem ocratic organization In
! the battle for the Democratic noinina-
tion for President.
/ Charles F. Murphy two years ago,
after O. conference with the other
/ leaders at the San Francisco conven-
ton, finally threw Tammany's support
to Cox as against William G. McAdoo
Tammany now will demand that the
! Cox men return the compliment, II they
are in condition to deliver anything,
and back Smith for the nomination.
Tammany counts on Illinois, which
state gave Smith some help at San
Francisco two years ago, and ne is
virtually sure of ali the Atlantic sea
board states as against any Middle
West or Far Western man.
If Colonel William J. Bryan is alive
and we'll it goes without saying that he
will oppose Smith and his wet platform,
but this is what Murphy and Smith are
counting on. believing that Bryan's op-
position will be an asset rather thar
hindrance.
The Tammany men were wild with

Seyenteen-year-old Katherine Smith
In blue velvet frock, with three silver
balloons tied to her waist, was fox
trotting through the crowd with her
young brother
Mrs. Smith and her older daughter,
Emily, were shaking hands with every
body who entered the Smith headquar-
ters in the Hotel Biltmore, and out in
the corridor the youngest Smith, Wal
ter, was gravely discussing politics
with his friend, Patrolman Sabatini.
TITS good thing we're going back,
he said. "I've got another very impor-
tant piece of legislation that l want to
attend to. You know | had a pretty
important part in that Sunday baseball
bill, and / expect this is going to be
just as important"
whats the bill?" inquired Sabatini.
The youngest Smith surveyed the
scene Of jollifcation within, where
Emily too had taken to her toes with
a jubilant young district leader, and
the band was playing "Tammany." He
frowned sagely.
Gravity Ruled Out
"I don't think this is the place for
a serious political talk" said he.
Practically the entire Democratic
throng agreed with him, for it was
almost impossible to get word with
any one as to the reasons for the
Smith landslide.
Mrs. Smith smiled and said she was
delighted.
II always want tAl' to have every
thing he wants." she added "When
he was nominated said ! was ready to

The Albany people were very kind to

"The children? Well, they are de-
lighted to go back to Albany. That is
home to them, for they have such a
good time up there"
Various other young folk followed
the Smith children's example, and pres
emily Henry Moskowitz, master of
ceremonies, was shouting:
Everybody back little, please! The

Annie Mathews, Recorder for New York
County, 1--WE old folk have some rights
After all, we're the ones that cast the
votes"
Victory Called Personal
Between dances Miss Mathews gave
1t as her impression that the landslide
for Smith was personal victory.
"A did it-with Miller's help" she
said.
Mrs. John Blair was equally jocund.
New-York tribune., 1922-11-08

Governor Miller issued q statement
saying that the people were thinking
and that the votes Of the thinkers
would decide" she said. "Well, he
was right"
MISS Frances Perkins, who was a
member of the Industrial Commission
under Governor Smith, declared that
the most interesting thing about the
election was the upstate vote.
ut shows that up state and the city
are no longer two isolated peoples"
she said. Through the Dairymen' s
League and other farmer organizations,
and through the growing industralism
of the upstate towns, the upstate
voter is coming to see things much as
the city voter does. These returns
show that the spirit of liberalism is
gaining. The upstate voter is not the
reactionary he used to be. He stands
for the progressive, humanitarian pro-
gram of the Democratic platform.
In the home Of Mrs. Catherine Smith
mother of the victorious candidate, at
10 Middagh Street, Brooklyn, there was
rejoicing of more sedate kind, the kind
that tended rather to tears than to fox
trotting.
~ think it is just grand" said the
candidates mother. "Al was over here
to see me at noontime, after he had
voted, and knew he was going to win,
though he wouldn't say anything ex-
cept You never can tell until the last
minute"
Republican Women Cheerful
The party at the Women's National
Republican Club was one Of serio-
comic vein. The leaders who had been
working all day in their own election
districts fiocked to the club to Jest
with their neighbors and snatch what
crumbs of comfort they could from the
few "safe Republican districts"
Miss Laura Skinner passed as a
heroine because she had carried her
bailiwick, at SO West Thirty-fifth
Street, the 35th Election District Of

II had rs straight Republican votes
and only 16 straight Democratic" she
said, "and the total vote for Miller was
1876, as against 98 for Smith. My peo-
pie also gave Mills 1872 and Metz S4."
Mrs. Charles Sabin and Mrs. Theo-
dore Roosevelt burst in, flushed with ioy
over the Miller majority in Nassau and
Suffolk counties, and ready to start in
o-day to work for the next campaign.
Tomorrow morning bright and
early we must reorganize," said Mrs.
Sabin. "I am not at all downhearted
at this defeat, because believe that
the light beer and wine plank in the
Democratic platform is responsible for
it. do not consider it Judgment on

ter Than an Even Break

The Democratic landslide, among
other things, completely buried the
bench in New York City in so far as
openings afforded by the elections for
new judges were concerned.
The Tammany judicial candidates
fairly romped into victory, carrying all
the positions contested for the Supreme
and city courts and General Sessions
At no time were the results in doubt
and in some instances the Democrats
scored tallies of 2 to / over their Re.
publican adversaries.
In one instance the early returns
showed to score in favor of a
Tammauy candidate.
In but one case did a Republicau
candidate show better than an even
break when the first of the election
districts reported. He was Justice
Robert McC. Marsh, the initial ten
Manhattan election districts giving hin,
lead Of ninety-nine for Justice of the
Supreme Court, list District.
Marsh Quickly Loses Lead
He lost this lead almost immcdiately
thereafter, however, and just before
midnight the vote from 800 Manhattan
districts for that office was: Black
Dem ocrat, 59,635; Marsh, Republican
1856. The first 100 election districts
in the Bronx gave Black 1861 and
Marsh 14,320 votes.
Equally little difficulty was encoun-
tered by Democratic candidates in
Brooklyn and Queens in getting public
assurance for their ambitions to become
justices of the Supreme Court, I'd Dis

Six hundred and fifty election dis

in Kings was decided by a plurality Of

returns from $50 election districts.
Despite the Democratic avalanche,
these results occasioned considerable
surprise, as, because of the strenuous
campaign made by the Ruston adher-
ents, it was thought by disinterested
observers he would at least run an ex-
tremely close race.

Liquor Available
AT Less Cost Than
Last Election Day
Fewer Persons Take Advan-
tage of Supply, as Shown
by Police Records of
Smaller List of Arrests

Bootleg rum was available yesterday
in any quantity at lower prices than
last Election Day, the bootleg curb
market quotations being off from $40
to $50 case. That fewer persons than
formerly took advantage of the plen-
tiful supply of rum that was flowing
from the ocean and the moonshine
stills was indicated by police records,
which showed fewer arrests for intox-
ication than for any Election Day in
years.
What drinking was done in New
York was done after the polls closed.
Many resorts which specialize in illicit
rum were running wide open last night
and were filled with patrons, but the
gayety in these places was not as
marked as in former years The for
mer saloons--some few of which are
Suspected of still selling liquors--were
running covertly and the speak -easies
were speaking easy. Amy one with a
desire to annex an election "bun" had
little trouble finding source Of sup
ply. but in spite of the large supply
and easy accessibility of the liquid
cheer, the celebration was marked in
New York by abstemiousness the rec
ofdS snow.
No Special Preparation
E. C. Yellowley, prohibition director,
said yesterday afternoon that he had
made no special preparations to COM
bat the flow of election whisky. He
admitted that he was aware that
whisky was not hard to get in New
York, but said that any one who drank
it was taking desperate chances. He
said he did not believe the situation
would compare with the widespread
drunkenness Of election days in all
large cities in the past. Mr.. Yellowley
is nothing if not an optimist and he
believes that prohibition has actually
begun to prohibit.
II am busy he said, arranging to
reorganize my Office force, and may
make some changes in the force of
agents and the field force generally
at later date. may be ready to
make announcements Of some slight
changes in few days. Because have
Just arrived hece, and because want
to get the organization in good shape,

possibility of some liquor being sold

would be elected. He has recommend
