NEW Tomt Not. 10. The New Totk
Herald, In commentlnic today upon the re
election of rreeldent Wilson, snys that the
rmult vm decided by the women oters tn
-California. The editorial continues'
"It Is a. national scandal that women
afeould be allowed to vote In some States
M4 not In others that the selection of a
President should be committed Into the
hands of women voters In one Btate. or
rroup of States, when women In other
'mates are denied the votlnK privilege"
(A view similar to the Herald's was taken
by the Evemno Ledosb last Tuesday,
election day, when this newspaper In an
editorial under the caption, "Think This
Over," called woman suffrage o, national
Issue. nemarWnj; that the Hast In the past
had urged reduction of the South's repre
sentation In the electoral college because
of the disfranchisement of the southern
negroes that editorial cited upon what
ground the East could object when the
woman suffrage West should ask reduction
of the East's representation because of the
disfranchisement of eastern women.)
Extracts from other New York editorials
i on the election result follow!
American "If the cumbersome and anti
quated Electoral College were abolished and
the pple voted directly for presidential
candidates, there would be no prolonged
uncertainty about election results."
Times, "It was altogether and purely an
American choice, made for American rea
sons upon considerations that concern our
' affairs only."
World "Again the American people have
received an impresslvo warning that tho
. Electoral College Is a menaco to the politi
cal security of the United States "
whether the few hundred votes that will de
cide the electoral votes of California and
Minnesota fall to Mr. Wilson or Mr.
Hughes. The ery fact that these great
Republican States have been In doubt to
this moment Indicates the extent of the
failure of the Republican candidate and his
- party and not lesn clearly the amaxlng
triumph of Mr. Wilson."
i BRITAIN 'UP IN AIR' OX U. S.
ELECTION FOR PRESIDENT
Wilson Assails by Some Hughes
Feared by Some
LONDON, Nov. 10, London Is In doubt.
It Is still withholding Judgment on who
won the American presidential election and
f Is waiting anxiously for official returns.
4 London thought It knew Wednesday
i morning when Iteutor'n flashed unqualifiedly
that Ilughos had been elected. But to-
! day Reuter's flashed unqualifiedly that Wll
" ' aon had .been re-elected. So the Evening
News to be perfectly fair reproduced both
Beutor flashes under tho head: "Iteutor
i Bays Both Elected,"
f When the "news" that Hughes had been
( elected was printed President Wilson drew
few editorial hot-shots. One was "spine
. less Idealist" Now that things are doubt
jf ful editorial opinion Is suspended. Crowds
" have flocked around the bulletin boards
Incs Tuesday,
Before the election all England, news
papers, officials and plain cltlxens, were
Interested to an almost unbelievable de
gree, but held aloof. There seemed to be
, . gentlemen's agreement not to take sides
von In opinion In the domestic affairs of
? the United States. '
"It Isn't our affair: we have troubles
nough of our own without mixing In with
America's problem," seemed expressive of
tho public; state of mind.
The newspapers with but few exceptions
withheld opinion. The British tendency wnn
probably toward Wilson.. Ita basis was
in, the belief that German officialdom was
,, against him.

TAMMANY, IN DISGRACE
NI2W YOniC, Nov. 10. Woodrow Wilson
has been elected President without the ntos
of the heretofore supposedly Indispensable
Staten of New York, Indiana and Illinois
and their three Democratic leaders, whose
domination la popularly accedlted them In
the title of 'boss" They are Charles V
Murphy, of Tammany Halt; Tom Taggart,
of Indiana and Iloger Sullivan, of Illinois.
Only one other President a nepubllcnn
has eer been elected without the tn
of New York He as llutherford Ii, Hayes,
nnd his election over Samuel J, TUden In
1876 Is the closest paraljel In American
political history to the close race of 1910
Politicians nil over ths country will await
with Interest the Administration's treatment
of tho New York city, Illinois State and In
diana State Democratic organizations.
Tho consensus of opinion today was Hint
there were lean years ahead for all three,
so far as Federal pntronago and recogni
tion by the Administration Is concerned
It Is generally believed that on Tammany
Hall will fall tho hardest blow since from
ilnvtn of election day the I'resldent'a friends
line "a hunch" that tho Murphylten would
knlfo Wilson Tho tremendous city ma
jority which Tammnny promised Wilson
failed dismally to materialise.

NORTH DAKOTA CONCEDED
TO PRESIDENT WILSON
PAIIOO, N. D , Nov. 10. North Dakota's
five votes In the electoral college were con
ceded to President Wilson last night by
William Lemke, chairman of the Republican
State Central Committee, when returns from
all but 33 precincts In ths State cae the
President a plurality of 1SC0 over Hughes.
The balance of power In the next National
House of Ilepresentatlves will actually rest
with fUe Representatives affiliated with
neither the Democratic- nor the Republicans,
on tho face of returns nallnblo today.
Tho Itrpuhllrans made such gains In tho
election Tuesday ,that the Democratlo ma
jority In tho House Is out to the point whero
even the Speakership msy bo affected.
Present returns Indicate that the Repub
licans will have two more Representatives
than the Democrats. The success or fail
ure of proposed legislation will, therefore,
rest with tho otes of n. Socialist, a Prohlbl
t onlst with Democratlo leanings, a Pro
tectlonlt Democrat, an Independent nnd
n Progressive.
In addition, n woman nnd possibly two
women may sit In tho House for tho nrst
time In history Miss Jeannetto Rankin,
Republican, of Montnna, on latest returns
Is apparently elected over Hnrry 11. Mitch
ell. Republican
The second woman Is Mrs Frances C
Axtcll, Democrat, who threatens to ovcr
como tlio sinnll lead of Congresiman Had
loy tn the 2d district.
Following Is tho classification of the next
House, based on returns gnthered up to
this afternoon:
nepuhlleana . . 31. In.pndnte (1
Democrats .... 214
Tho present House Is ns follows:
nemnrrats ... . SS0 TnOprnrtent . ... 1
Iteputillean 1VT Hoclallst I
Proarrsslve ft
If Mr. Axtell wins tho Republicans and
thb Democrats will bo tied with 21S seats
ench.
A majority In the House Is 218. It takes
that many votes, therefore, to elect n. speak
er and to enact legislation. Hither big
party, therefore, must get the good will of
three of the five men aligned with smaller
parties, bafnre It can do btmlnrss In Its
own way. And, Incidentally, thoao five Inde
pendents may be no more question marks
than will tho "first woman In tho world" to
be iwmted nt Washington. Miss Rankin was
chosen on a Republican ticket, but Demo
crats point out that "she's a woman, never
theless "
The five men who, on present appear
ances, will be the balnnco of power or "the
Hnlkans of the House" an It wns said here
today arc-
C II Randall, Prohibitionist, California;
W. P. Martin, Protectionist, Democrat,
Louisiana; Meyer London, Socialist, New
York; Thomas V. Schall, Progressive, Min
nesota, and A. J. Fuller, Independent, Mas
sachusetts. Randall has had a rather hybrid political
career. Ho has been a Republican,, a Pro
gressive and a Democrat. He ran on the
Prohibition ticket Tuesday with the Demo
cratic Indorsement.
Martin Is the first man not n regular
Democrat to be electod In Louisiana In 25
years. Ho Is described as basically a Demo
crat, with a strong dash of protection,
Meyer London had a bitter fight and wns
re-elected by less than 200 votes. He has
so far consistently kept away from any
show ot favoritism to Republicans or Dem
ocrats. Schall Is an "unreconstructed rebel," ns
tho dyed-in-the-wool, refilse-to-dls Progres
ses call themselves. He can be counted
on to favor only the party that puts up
what he thinks Is the most progressive leg
islation and the bBt mah for speaker.
Fuller Is said to have grown his Inde
pendent faith from tho political emanations
of former Democratic Governor Foss, of
Massachusetts, who haa frequently hbpped
from Republican tn Democratlo sides.
Complete returns from all States which
elected .Senators Tuesdny Indicate that the
Senate will stand-
Democrats, fifty-four.
Republicans, forty-two.
Total membership, ninety-six.
Democratlo majority, twelve.
