MOIST VOTE MAKES
OHIO DEMOCRATIC
LongWorth Holds Slender
Lead and Gov. Cooper
Is Defeated.
~ The As,oclated prexs

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, November ST.
Ohio has gone Democratic on United
States Senator, Governor and increased
the Democratic representation in the
Lower House of Congress.
It has gone more than Democratic
It has gone wet to certain extent,
the first time in many years.
Robert j. Buckley, Cleveland Demo-
crat, an advocate Of repeal Of the
eighteenth amendment, who defeated
Senator Roscoe G. MCCULLOUGH for the
unexpired two years Of the late Senator
Frank B. Willis, will be the first anti
prohibitionist Ohio has sent to the
Senate since former Senator Atlee
Pomerene retired in 1922. Buckley has
824,288 to McCullough'S 719.123, with
1881 precincts counted out Of 1888.
The States wet tendency also is
further emphasized by the apparent
defeat of several dry Republicans for
Congress. Representative John G.
Speaks, twelfth Columbus district, has
yielded his seat to Arthur p. Lam
beck, prohibition repeal advocate, by
an overwhelming majority.
Apparently IL Republicans were
elected to Congress and eight Demo-
Gratis, with three congressional seats
still in doubt. Among the defeated Re-
publican Representatives were Roy q.
Fitzgerald, Charles J.. Thompson, John
@. Speaks, Joe E. Baird and William
M. Morgan. In the present Congress
there were only three Ohio Democrats.
Even Speaker Nicholas Longworth
had close race with his Democratic
opponent. John w. Pattison, son OF
former Ohio Governor. Longworth had
q lead of 3,o45 with only Is precincts
unreported. Pattison is wet. 4
Gov. Cooper also went down in the
Democratic landslide yielding to George
White, Marietta, Democrat, by an APP
parent decisive majority. White was
leading Cooper by 844,2 87 to 76S.799
In 1875 precincts out OF 1885 ana
his majority continued to increase as
additional blocks Of precincts were
tabulated.
Bulkley had piled up a majority Of
almost 100,0 900 in approximately three
fourths of the State and his lead con-
tinued to increase early this morning.
state victory Possible.
Possibility of both Houses of the
state Legislature also having Demo-
cratic majorities was indicated as
county after county, reported election
of Democrats Both branches nave
been overwhelmingly Republican Tor
several years.
Election of Buckley to the Senate
makes the fifth Senator that has
served in the term of the late Senator
Frank B. Willis, which expires March
4. 1888. Succeeding Senator Willis was
Cyrus Locfer, Democrat, by appoint
nnent. Locher was succeeded by the
late Theodore e. Burton by election.
Burton was followed by Senator Roscoe
G. McCulloch by appointment, and
now McCulloch yields to Buckley.
Loci1er and Buckley were Democrats.

INDIANAPOLIS, November 5.-Demo-
cratic pluralities In contests for State
offlces in Indiana and for 3 of the Is
seats in the National Congress increased
slowly today as the count OF votes in
yesterdays election progressed.
Only one of the congressional candi-
dates on either ticket, however-Louis
Ludlow, seventh district, Democrat
definitely was assured of election. He
was reelected by a Democratic land
slide In Marion County.
Seven Others Leading.
The seven other Democrats led their
plurality Of 2,0O0 Republicans, leading
five other district races, held advan-
tages ranging from 100 to 1000. The
vote tabulated in each of the IL dis
tricts represented only about one-third
Of the ballots cast.
Indiana is represented in the present
Congress by 10 Republicans and 3
Democrats. The incomplete returns in
dicated the Democrats would be re-
turned. Other districts In which that
party was leading were the first, third,
NTH, eleventh and thirteenth.
Only One Wet Ahead.
Only one Of the three Democratic
congressional candidates running on
platforms favoring modification of the
eighteenth amendment was ahead to-
day. He was Samuel B. Pettengill of
South Bend, who led the veteran An
drew j. Hickey, Republican, by 5000,
with one-third of the vote counted.

lican incumbent. led Charles j. Murphy,
Democratic wet, by 1000 votes, and
David M. Hogg, twelfth district Repub-
lican incumbent, was ahead Of Thomas
P. Riddle, Democrat, by 400 votes.

MORROW VICTORY

Plurality Under Friends Pre-. !
diction in New Jersey
Senatorial Race.
BY the Associated Press.


NEWARK, N. j., November S.
Dwight w. Morrow, Republican. has
been elected United States Senator
from New Jersey for both the short
ana long terms, although by q much
smaller plurality than was predicted.
Returns from 2.052 OF the 1891
voting districts in the State, counted
early today, gave Morrow 322,0l4 votes
70 227,SS7 for his Democratic opponent
for the fun term. Alexander Simpson
For the short term Morrow polled
270,153 votes 10 i4S,960 for Miss
Thelma Parkinson, Democratic canci-
date.
The vote indicated that Morrow's
margin would fall below the $50, 900 20
100000 predicted for him by his sup.
porters prior to election.
Weather was stormy.
Stormy weather and the assumption
by many Republican voters that their
candidate was assured en- easy victory
were the reasons given by party Lead
ers for the shrinkage Of Morrow's ex-
pected plurality.
Although his Democratic opponents
led him In three industrial counties In
early returns, the certainty of Morrow's
success became apparent soon after
the count wat begun. Shortly after
midnight Representative Mary r. Nor
ton, Democratic State vice chairman,
conceded the Republican candidates
election.
Morrow entered the race for the SEN
ate while still Ambassador to Mexico
and opened his campaign for the nomi-
nation soon after his return from the
London Naval Conference, to which he
was q delegate.
He entered the primary campaign
with declaration for repeal of the
eighteenth amendment and restoration
OF State control Of liquor.
Dry Law Not an Issue.
The prohibition issue did not figure
In the campaign for election, as Simp-
son and Miss Parkinson ran on an anti
prohibition platform.
L The short term to which Morrow was
elected is the unexpired term OF SEN
ator Walter E.. Edge, who resigned to
become Ambassador to France.
Partial returns In the congressional
election indicated that Republicans had
captured z Of New Jerseys IL seats
IN the House.
The fate Of three bond-issue pro-
posals was In doubt as the count
progressed with the 83,O0O.O0O high
way proposition running slightly be-
hind on returns from q third Of the
districts. A $4,000 900 State institu-
ton construction issue and the $1,000
600 water supply issue had only small
margins In favor Of their adoption.

STREETS
HECKL.E DRIVERS
Many Towns a.d Villages
Have Pavements De-
signed for Horse.
(By E. e. DUFFY


Street and road progress has been
rapid within the last few years, so
rapid that numberless communities are
still building pavements that are not
at all suited for the heavy influx Of
automobiles.
Towns and cities the country over
are largely equipped with pavements
that were designed for the leisurely
horse, who reigned when loads and
vehicles were light and when bumps
and rough spots didn't matter.
Modernize Designs.
Highway authorities are in accord
on the thought that every community
should modernize street designs and
have a rehabilitation program under
way with the purposeful replacement
Of antique highway surfaces by pave
ments that are both smooth and long
wearing.
Aside from the wear and tear that
poor pavements inflict on the motor
lists car and pocketbook, they also ac-
count in a large measure for traffic
congestion. Even small towns find
that the bulk of the traffic is confined
to few through streets which have
been well paved and that countless
other streets carry little traffic be-
cause Of holey, jagged bunny sur
faces.
Spring is in the offing and the havoc
of winter Is becoming more and more
apparent. Chuck holes in inferior
street surfaces are as much harbingers
Of spring as a game of marbles on
the corner lot.
Coming Of Repair Gang.
Year in and year out the coming of
spring means the coming Of the street
repair gang and the going of tax
payers money. Most street repairs
come out of community's general
funds, and the taxpayer doesn't worry
much because he isn't levied directly
for this repair. But he foots the bill
Just the same. If street repairs were
paid for by direct levies, taxpayers
would insist on better pavements.
Modern traffic demands smooth hard
surfaces, and where they are not sup
piled automobile operating costs are
high, pavement upkeep is out of line,
and satisfaction is conspicuous by its
non-presence. In the words Of one
prominent city official, Keep repair
gangs off the streets by building the
repairs into the pavement when the
pavement is laid"

Weather Given as One
Reason for Tire Wear

The prime causes of tire tread wear
are high speed, temperature and
weather, starting and stopping, and
improper imitation.
Speeds can be reduced, tire pressure
can be kept at the proper mark, and
quick starts and stops can be reduced,
it was pointed out.
The weather, naturally, cannot be
controlled, and the tire owner who
lives in hot, dry climate must expect
to get less mileage than the motorist
who lives in locality where cool and
wet weather prevails.
