REPUBLICANS DISMAYED BY SUDDEN SHIFT

Party in Power .Always Target is By MARK SCIXTVAW WASHINGTON, D. C Nov. 9. The Republicans are frankly dismayed. Most of their leaders counted confidently on a jflinimum majority of 40 in the lower house. Many of them expected as high as 60, and there is probably not a Republican leader of any importance who did not count on a majority of at least 30. They underestimated the quality of sullen discontent, of angry dissatisfaction, which is clearly the present mood of tha country. This election is the second one of a series of oscillations more violent than we have been accustomed to. The first was in 1920. , The Republicans then being out were the beneficiaries of it. This sort of thing is likely to happen again and again, since the gov ernment has got into so many outside activities, the party in power is al ways the object of an aggregate of many resentments. The party in power wfll continue to be blamed for high taxes. They will be blamed in some parts of the coun try for enforcement of the prohibition law, and in other parts of the country or Jack of effective endorsement. Radicals Selected. In almost every case where a radical was running on the Republican ticket the Republican won. The radical strength and the farm block strength in the senate will be increased. The strength of the isolation group in the senate is also clearly increased. The victory of Reed la Missouri is a. tri umph for this issue on a fight made un der exceptionally adverse circum stances. Correspondingly, the defeat of Hitchcock in Nebraska means the passing out of the man who led the fight for the League of Nations on behalf of the Democrats in the senate. On the other hand, it is quite clear that in Massachusetts Lodge would have been defeated if there had been the faintest approach toward thorough organization and good management in part of the Democrats locally in that state. The Democrats nationally have won their present victories on a mere shoestring of leadership, a shoestring of resources, and a shoestring, of organization. If they had had anything approaching Republican resources and Republican organization their victory would have been, overwhelming. One cheering result is the rotafQ'ttJ the lower house of such able and searoned Democratic leaders. as Cordell Hull of Tennessee and several other former congressmen. By the addition of these and few other, the total amount of leadership in the lower house will be increased. At the same time. Republican leadership and Republican morale, both in the house and the senate, are decreased by the re sults of these elections. Klan Aided Defeat. Tn Indiana, there were three things that operated against Beveridge, one was the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan is said to be stronger in Indiana than in any other northern state. Beveridge did not attack the Klan by name; but various aspersions uttered by him about "groups" and "racial prejudice" were taken by the Klan as occasion for passing the word to vote against Beveridge. Also, during the last fewdays of the compaign, Governor Henry Alien, of Kansas, came into Indiana to speak for Beveridge; Allen had just started to drive the Klan out of Kansas, and in his Indiana speeches in behalf of Beveridge, he attacked the Klan. Another group against Beveridge was the radical labor following. Beveridge expressed opposition to the Adamson law. That law was not an issue in the campaign, but Beveridge included opposition to it in his program. As everybody said, it was courageous, but it wasn't politics. There remains, finally, the inevitable implication that Beveridge must have been cut by some of the regular Rapublican organization in the state. Senator Harry New and New's friends undoubtedly resented what Beveridge did to them in the primaries last spring. This aspect of the Beveridge result will have echoes for many years to come. Beveridge's friends "will be sure to resent it. and Indiana may turn Democratic for a long time. Ralston Presidential Material. Ralston, by carrying this big doubtful state of Indiana fiA the Democrats, i thm in the foreground as a possi bility for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1924. It has already been understood that Ralston would Hova iho harkins of Bryan. The victory in New York was due nartly to the rersonal popularity or me Peraocratic candidate for governor, una partly to the strong anti-prohibition sentiment in the big cities of that tie The considerable number of Italian and other foreign voters in New York city felt that they could express themselves against prohibition bv voMng the Democratic ticket. 'in Ohio, the fact that victory appears o have besn won by Fess, the Republican candidate for the senate, while the rest of the Republican ticket in that state was defeated, is due largely to the fact that the "dry" sentiment of Ohio was in favor of Fess as against Pomerene. Also. Pomerene, the Democratic senator, was opposed by radical tabor. Both Fess and Pomerene have to some extent anti-labor records, but as between the two, labor in Ohio regarded Pomerene as its particular enemy and made the drive against him. Before Campaign Claim Before the election the Republicans were claiming that with a reduced majority in the lower house, they would , be better able to jpul through theif program. They claimed their big majority was a handicap. There was and is nothing in this. As it appears at this hour, the Republicans may have lost the house, y Even if thev (Please Turn to Pag Twelve)

George R. Stone, counsel for the local United Mine Workers and one of the seven defense attorneys asked that the indictments be quashed on the ground that the grand jury which returned the accusations was chosen il legally. Stone claimed the deputy sher iffs who picked the grand jury were appointed by Attorney General Brundage and that the attorney general had prejudiced the jury through interviews with newspapers and by dictating its deliverations. .

British soldiers have been killed at Constantinople apparently in a clash with the Turks and the situation is extremely grave, according to latest advices from the Near East. Mustapha Kemal, sent a note to the French high' commissioner reiterating his demand that the allied forces withdraw from Constantinople and that allied warships be removed from their position in the straits according to Constantinople dispatches to the Times and Reuters. Two British wldiers were killed, evidently by Turks near Kassim, one report said. Other Constantinople dispatches give no details. . The Near Eastern Cable company reported the Turkish Nationalists had cut the London-Constantinople Cables near Chanak. Communication between western Europe and the Porte depends upon unreliable telegraph via Budapest. . PARIS, Nov. 9. Ismet Pasha, foreign minister in the Turkish Nationalist government, has informed the allied governments that any delay in holding the Lausanne peace conference would be a disaster as it would be interpreted by the Angora assembly and tne Kemalist army as a sign of nosuuty against the Turks and indi cation that the allies did-uot intend to live up to the conditions of the Mu dania armistice. The French government therefore is exerting every influence to have the Lausanne conference formally opened on scneauied time, November 13, in order to demonstrate to the Turks the good Intentions of the allies.

DEMOCRATS ANNEX TWO STATE JOBS Control Lower House of Assembly

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 9. Scope of the Democratic victory in Indiana Tuesday became more apparent today as the smoke cleared from the more important battles and permitted the less significant ones to come to light ' Democrats in addition to electing their candidate for United States senator, and five congressmen at Tuesday's election, appear to have been successful als? in gaining two state offices now held by Republicans, and in getting control of the lower house of the general assembly. Samuel M. Ralston, former governor, will have a plurality of nearly 35,000 over Albert J. Beveridge, Republican, who opposed him in the senatorial race. The Democrats will have the con gressional representatives from the first, second, third, fourth and eleventh districts. It now seems certain that Robert Bracken, Democrat, will be erected state auditor over William G. Oliver, Republican, who sought re-election. Dungan Is Leading. Zachariah C. Dungan, Democratic candidate for clerk of the supreme court, also has a good lead over Patrick J. Lynch, Republican nominee for re-election. Tabulation of unofficial returns from 2,096 of the 3,395 precincts in the state for auditor of state gave Oliver 328,755; Bracken, 341,320. The vote from 2.065 precincts on the contest for supreme court clerk gave Lynch, 316,670; Dungan, 353,171. Benj. J. Burris, state superintendent of publio instruction apparently is assured of re-election. The vote from 2,052 precincts gave Burris 331,672 while his Democratic opponent, Daniel Mcintosh has 314,177. In the legislative contest the Democrats appear to have been successful in a majority of the races. Of the 25 state senators to be elected the Democrats named 16 and the Republicans will have 32 seats in the upper house while the Democrats will have 18. - For the house of representatives returns so far tabulated show that 47 Democrats elected and 46 Republicans, with seven seats in doubt. At least four of the seven will go to the Democrats, it is believed,, in -as much as Democratic candidates in the counties involved were generally successful. Situation Reversed The legislative situation shows a reversal from the last general assembly when the Republicans had 41 senators to 9 for the Democrats and 89 house members as against 11 held by Democrats. Although returns were not complete in all cases, it appeared certain that Indiana would send this delegation to cangress: First district William Wilson, Democrat. Second district Arthur Greenwood, Democrat Third Frank Gardner. Democrat. Fourth Harry Canfield, Democrat. Fifth Everett Sanders, Republican. Sixth Richard Elliott, RepublicanSeventh Merrill Moore.s- Republi can. Eighth Albert Vestal, Republican. Nints Fred S. Purnell, Republican. Tenth Will R. Wood, Republican. Eleventh Sam Cook, Democrat Twelfth Louis Fairfield, Republican. Thirteenth Andrew J. Hickey, Republican. All the Republicans are incumbent. Hickey defeated Miss Esther Kathleen O'Keefe, of Plymouth, a Democrat, the first woman - candidate for congress in Indiana.

Trial of E. F. Hiatt Dec. 11 is Expected to be Legal Battle Edgar F. Hiatt former president of the Dickinson Trust company, will be put on trial on a charge of. embezzlement Dec. 11, in the Wayne circuit court Trial of the case is expected to last about one week. One of the most formidable arrays of legal talent in the history of the Wayne county bar, is expected to face the bench when the case is called. Hiatt, who was indicted in the spring of 1922 by the Wayne county grand jury, on 10 charges of embezzlement, has retained John Robbins of Indianapolis, one of the best known lawyers in the state, and the firm of Robbins. Reller and Robbins of this city for his defense. On the other hand, this county expects to prosecute the case with as much vigor as the circumstances require, as is indicated by the fact that the county commissioners Included in the budget for the remainder of the year of 1922 the sum of $1,500 to be

used for assistant counsel, to be re tained by the county for assistance with the prosecuting attorney, Paul A. Beckett Attorney Not Named The name of -the attorney or attor neys who will be employed as assistant counsel in the Hiatt case have not yet been made public. It is expected that the case will take up about one week of the court's time. One other case of more than usual interest which is to be tried in the near future is that of James P. Dillon, former superintendent of the Richmond Municipal Light plant This case has been taken to the Randolph county court and is scheduled for trial there Nov. 21. Mr. Dillon is charged with misuse of public funds. Crowded Docket Promised A crowded docket will keep the Jury busy for the latter part of the month of November and the first part of December.

"The cash feature has always been thought of as beings the only consideration of adjusted compensation for which the Legion is working, but there is a provision that asks that the service man be enabled to get a home." Commander Faulkner was a private in the United States army. Only one other state in the union has a private at the head of its legion. "The home is the foundation stone of . the church and American government. That feature alone justifies the adjusted compensation," Mr. Faulkner said. "Armistice day is one of the most joyful days of thanksgiving.

G.O. P. CLINGS TO POWER BY THIN THREAD Democrats Hopeful of ' 1924 Landslide

WASHINGTON. Nov. 9. Republicans continued today to cling to control of the next congress" by a slender thread as the slow process of making returns from Tuesday's election was continued. Latest available figures early today showed that the house stood Republicans 220, Democrats 210; Socialist 1; Independent 1, with three scattered districts not heard from. These figures were expected to be revised somewhat as they conceded to the Republicans some districts still listed by the Democrats as doubtful.. In the senate the Republican margin will be 8 or 10, depending on results or two close contests. In Utah, Sen ator King was not yet certain of his re-election, though he was leading in early morning returns by more than 100. North Dakota's returns were not complete because of bad weather and consequent delay in getting the count in from remote rural sections and it was therefore uncertain whether J. F. O'Connor, Democrat or Lynn J. FTazier, Republican, had won. G. O. P. Stalwarts Lose Overnight returns seemed to maku conclusive the defeat of two more Re publican stalwarts in the west Senator Miles Poindexter, Washington, who was pusted by C. C. DilL his bemocratic adversary, and Senator Frank B. Kellogg, Minnesota, who will bd succeeded by Henrik Shipstead, far mer-labor, non-partisan league candidate. , Kellogg's defeat by Shipstead was one of the most surprising upset3 of the campaign, although it was evi dent for some time that Kellogg would not have an easy time. Every new compilation of returns emphasized the sweeping character ot the Democratic overturn, which nov appears to have equalled the Republi can landslide of 1920. May Win In 1924 Political historians pointed out to day that off year elections such as oc curred Tuesday usually point the way to the political trend of the next pres idential year. If that is borne out in this Instance, the Democrats stand ti win In 1924 by the most stupendous majority ever polled in this country. ine magnitude of Democratic gains was shown by what happened in the senatorial fight The Republicans lost nine states and may lose North Dakota, making total losses ten. The Democrats lost but two, Ohio and Nebraska, with Utah still in doubt. The' Republicans held only eight normally Republican states in the sen atorial fights, while the Democrats held 12 of theirs. Progressives Happy The result of both houses was hailed by Progressive leaders as a victory for their principles. Progressive Republi can senatorial candidates survived when other Republicans were beaten and will hold control of the senate in their power because of the narrow Republican margin. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge now ap pears certain of beginning his sixth term in the senate, having won over Col. William A. Caston by between 8,000 and 10,000 votes, after the bitter est political battle in the state's histohy. Senator Reed, Missouri, also appear ed of re-election. The new and enlarged progressive block in the next senate which may dictate the senate's legislative trend, will Include: Borah, Idaho: Johnson, California: Brookhart, Iowa; Norris, Nebraska; LaFoIlette, Wisconsin; Norbeck. South Dakota; Shipstead, Minnesota; Howell, NeDraska, and Ladd, North Dakota. DEMOCRATS ELECT GOVERNORS IN THREE MIDDLE WEST STATES CHICAGO, Nov. 9.
