NEW DEMOCRACY.

AFTERMATH OF AMERICAN ELEO TIONS.

OLD PARTY LINES BLUREED/ Uy Telegraph—Press Aseociatioii-OopyriEht. London, November 11. "The Times" New York correspondent says that with their new leaders and their now hopes, the Democrats have a chance of making on effective Conservn-tivo-Democratio Party. Mr. W. J. Bryan's wild doinocracy is dead.

New York, November 11. The Republican tickets were generally successful in Kentucky, Missouri, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, lowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Idaho, Kansas, .Delaware, and Tennessee, but with a reduced majority. Old party lines were remarkably blurred. . i Dr. Woodrow Wilson, president of Princeton University, is Democratic Governor-olect of New Jersey. His was tho commanding Democratio triumph. He is likely to be the party's candidate for the Presidency. A : significant feature of the election was the striking growth of the Socialist vote, which more than doubled since 1908. In "California the Socialists polled 32,000' more than they did two years ago. The New York Socialists ran 10,000 ahead of Hearst's Independence League. AN "INSURGENT" TRIUMPH. DISLIKE OP MR. ROOSEVELT'S DEMAGOGIC CAMPAIGN. New York, Novemßer 11. The Domocrats gained forty seats in' the House of Representatives and lost three. The Republican majority in the Senate has been reduced to ten. The Roosevelt Republicans were routed in New York, Now Jersey, and Connecticut. There were other Democratic triumphs in Indiana, Illinois, and the Western States. ' Senators Chauncey Depow and ' Kean were defeated for the Senate, and Messrs. Herbert Parsons, W. H. Mann; and J. A. Tawncy were defeated for the House of Representatives. .

Oyster Bay (Now York) voted for the Democratic candidates. Mr. S. E. Payne was re-elected, but only by a narrow majority. The Roosoveltian defeat in New. York is interpreted as a Conservative viotory, duo to dislike of Mr. Roosevelt's demagogic campaign. The whole election is an "Insurgent" triumph, since tho Democrats ran the "Insurgent" platform. • Tho election is also interpreted to be due to the Republicans' too tardy emancipation from; the sway of the '"U Guard." . "Insurgents" were successful in Wisconsin and California. Tho New York correspondent of the "Daily Telegraph" states that tho Socialists and Mr. W. R. Hearst's Leaguers aro wedded 1 ' to Protection, and that English' opinions cabled to America to the effect that the result of tho election meant a revolt against Protection were incorrect. '< There is, however, adds the correspondent, a revolt against the cost of living, and the Democrats are pledged to revise tho tariff in the direction of cheapening the necessaries of life. . Mr. Roosevelt and President Taft maintain silence regarding the result.
