The chief feature of Toesday’s election in Centre county was the number of stay- at-home voters. The highest vote polled for any office was for Supreme Court Jue- tice, 4587 voter, or just 334 votes less than were cast for Tals alone as last year’s eleo- tion. The total vote for State Treasurer this year was 4507 as against 6936 two years ago. The total vote for Jury Com- missioner this year was 4559 as against 6124 swo years ago for the office of County Sorveyor. Thisshows a condition of apa- thy probably never before equalled in Cen- tre county polities. The only satisfaction that Demoorats can glean from this state- ment of facts is thas the largest percentage of stay-at-homes were Repoblicans. Bus at that it is poor criterion upon the pa- triotism of the voters of the county that almost filty per cent. of them [failed to go $0 thefpolls and exercise the ove ivaliena- ble right they are entitled to. As anjexample : At Tuerday’s election Hon. C. LaRue Munson bad a majority of 1239 over his opponent Von Moschszisker. At the same ratio, bad a full vote been polled bis majority would bave been over two thousand. Soch a condition all over the State would bave eleoted him easily. The one vote in the county that can be considered practically a straight party vote was for the office of Jury Commissioner, Decker [receiving 2108 votes and Hazel 2450. Another surprising feature about the election in this county was the way the people slashed the proposed constitutional amendments, the vote being 774 for to 1774 against. But as the total vote was only a few over hall the number of votes polled it is evident that maoy of the voters were 80 confused when they came to vote for them thas they either passed them by entirely or else put a mark where it did no good at all. A eynopsis of the results in this and oth. er States is given below: REPUBLICANS SWEEP STATE. Entire Ticket Elected Though Munson Cuts Big 8lice Off Von Moschzisker's Mojority.—Returns from Other States. Philadelpbia, November 2.—The Repub- licans secured a cumplete victory in Penn- sylvaoia today, electing their State ticket by a large pluralisy and putting the re. form party to complete ro ¢ in Philadel phia by a majority in excess of 45,000. The State sioket elected is as follows : State Treavarer—J. A. Stober, of Lan caster. Auditor General—E. A. Bisson, of Erie. Justice of the Sapreme Conrt—Judge Robert Von Moschzisker, of Philadelphia. In Philadelphia District Attorney Sam- uel P. Rotan won re-election by defeating D. Clarence Gibhoney, the Reform Fa- sion candidate hy a surprisiogly large wa. jority. The other Republican county can- didates were also elected by substantial majorities, They are: Register of wills, David Martin ; city treasurer, Murrel Dobbins. The vore cast in Philadelphia was one of the largest ever polled here and the large ‘majorities secared hy the Republican can- didates astounded even the managers of that party themselves. For weeks an ag: gressive campaign had been carried on aud is was thonght the result of the eleotion would be exceedingly close. The Kepubli- can managers were elated over the result aod npomerons political clahs despite a rain storm, paraded the principal streets. The Republican State ticket was elected by » plurality well over 160,000 votes. C. LaRue Muneron, Demooratio candidate for Justice of the Supreme Coors, ran far ahead of his ticket and the other nominees on his ticket, receiving a large vote in the interior of the State, Von Moschzisker hav- ing 92,244 majority. The constitutional likely defeated. amendments were GAYNOR ELECTED IN NEW YORK. New York, November 2. — Tammany elected another mayor of Greater New York today bot lost its grip on city finances. William J. Gaynor, of Brooklyn, swept the five boroughs to victory as mayor hy at least 70,000 plumiality, defeativg Otto T. Bavvaid, Republican-fusion, and William Randolph Hearst, Independent. He fail- ed, however, to carry his ticket with him and the Republican-fusion forces will con. trol absolutely the board of estimate and apportionment, which will dishurse ap- proximately a billion dollars daring the administration. This is more than ball a defeat for Tammany, for the control of the boaid of estimate was one of the principal issues of the campaign. In addition, she Republican-fusionists elected Charles S. Whitman distriot attor- mney of New York county, who defeated George Gordon Battle, the Democratic nominee, by at least 14,000 plurality and John 8. Shea for sheriff over Christopher x. Suliivan, Demoorat, by approximately TOM JOHNSON DEFEATED IN CLEVELAND, Cleveland, O., November 2.—Tom L. Johnson, for four terms mayor of Cleve- lsnd, was deleated for a filth term Herman C. Baehr, Republican county re. corder. Unofficial returns from approxzi- mately balf the city indicated that Baehr’s Ie over Jehnson is at least 4,000 and may run to 6,000, As 10 o'clock tonight Johnson conceded his own defeat by 1,500. With him proba- bly went the bulk of the Democratic siok- et, those councilmen who have been ocon- spiouous in their support of his street rail- way program suffering the most.

REPUBLICAN GAINS IN INDIANA. Indianapolis, Ind., Nov, 2. —In the wu nicipal election held throngbout Indiana today the Republicans scored several im- portauvt victories, the mont vital of which was in Indianapolis. Samuel Lewis Shank, the Republican candidate for mayor and the entire Republican ticket were elected by majorities ranging from 1,000 to 1,500. The Republicans were euncoessful at Evansville where Charles F. Heilman was elected mayer over John J. Nolan, the present mayor. At Foit Wayne, Jesse Avice, the Re publican candidate for mayor and all the other candidates of his tiokes were elected by small majorities. Further viotories won hy the Republicans at and Crawfordsville. The Democrats carried South Bend, Manson and probably Terre Haute. ns LOOKS LIKE DEFEAT FOR HENEY.

Mr. Cyrus LARUE Muxso,of Wil- liamspors, carried the county by a majority of 1239 over Vox MoscHzisgKes. Is was a splendid tribute to a moss exceptional candidate and Mr. MUNSON should appre. ciate snch su expression of confidence. He bad a majority of 202 in Bellefonte; a nor- mally Republican sown of 1756 majority. What was doue for him in Centre conuty was repeated io nearly all of the counties of the State except Allegheny avd Philadel. phia, which appear to be so coirups and contented shat they have no use for clean, able men. Many of she rook-ribbed coun ties of she State, Blair, Tioga, Lozerne aud Dauphin, among them, gave majorities for the Democratic nominee for Supreme Court Justice and against the proposed amend- ments to the constitution. In fact the vote on the amendments ie 90 close that it is not koown whether they have carried or lost. Complete returns from all hat 9 of the 67 counties and careful estimates from she missing countiesfshow that J. A. STOBER ( Republican) for State Treasurer carried Pennosylvania by an apperent plaorality of 161,685. Judge VoN MoscHZISKER'S plurality over C. LARUE MUxsoN, his Demooratio opponent for Judge of the Supreme court, is 92,244. Official returns will change these figures slightly. Two years ago SHEATZ (Republican) carried Penpsylva- nia for State Treasurer by 146,224. State Senator S1880N’s plurality for Au- ditor General is a little less than that of STOBER. Few counties reported the vote on the constitutional amendments, but what were received indicated that the amendments bave been defeated. Philadelphia, how- however, may save them. Practically all the Democratic counties turned in majori- ties against the amendments. Among the coonties that failed to adopt she amend- ments are Bradford, Butler, Centre, Clar- ion, Clearfield, Fayette, Franklin, Falton, Green, Lehigh, Monroe, Perry, Potter, Schuylkill, Somerset, Venango and Wayne. The total vote cast for all State candi- dates throughout the Sate will fall about 100,000 shorts of that cast as the State Treasurer election in 1907, when 817,002 votes were polled. The total vote cast for President last year was 1,267,450. In Soyder county a dispute over six votes bas resulted in the returns being im- pounded, as a judgeship depends on those votes, MUNSON ran ahead of bis ticket in every county in the State excepting Cameron and Lebanon, where Kipp, for State Treasurer, ran ahead of his colleague, and in Craw- ford, Iodiana and Montgomery, where CLARK, for Auditor General, led his party ticket. MUNSON carried 43) counties and Vox MoscHziskER 24. VoN Moscuzis- KER'S apparent] plurality in the State is 92,244. Throughout the country the results are without partiounlar{significance ; excepting that in Massachusetts the usual Republican majority of sixty thonsand was less than eight, Virginia went Demoocratio as usual, the Democrate gained control of Kentucky and gained many of the up State cities of New York. TAMMANY won the Mayor of of New York, bus lost all the rest of the tickes and moet of the governmental prizes with it. In Maryland the Legislature is Demo- oratio, insuring the election of United States Senator RAYNER though the amend- ment intended to diefranchise the negroes is probably defeated. In Indiana party lines were obliterated in the local fights between the ‘‘wets’’ and the ‘‘drys ;'’ the results favoring the latter and three more counties of that State have been added to the local option forces. In Bedford county, this State, the elec- tion of a local option associate judge makes it lnok as though no more licenses will be granted over there. Looal fights in several counties of this State made it possible for the Democrats to elect their entire county tickets. This was notable in Schuylkill and Fayette. Though AL GARMAN, the old Bellefonte hotel man, was defeated for Sheriff of Blair county by 2500. Altogether, everywhere, except in the swo notorious cities of Pennsylvania the results show that the voters are thinking and voting for their own interests and the good of the country at large.
