California furnished something of a sur prise; as Republican success on the Pa cific Coast, owing to the Philippine pol icy, was generally expected Loud was defeated, no doubt, because he has stead fastly opposed increased' appropriations for salaries of letter-carriers and postal, clerks, while the Intense Chinese senti ment contributed to the election of .Llv- ernaah, although Kahn did all that mortal mar. could do to secure the passage- of a strlncent anti-Chinese law. It will there fore be seen that a great many seats in Congress were lost to the Republicans an issues entirely foreign to National af- fair3, and which had no possible bear- ing upon the popularity of the President cr any of his policies. The men who stood by the President and who represented him in the House of Representatives have nearly all been returned, and the majori ties are larger than usually given in "off "years." Conoequently, the National Ad ministration has no reason to feel ag grieved over the result of yesterday's elections. " Oregon Washington Idaho Sole Agent , HeadQuarters, S53-3&3 Washington cor. Park. His Failure as Mayor of Sew Yorlc Helped to Turn the Tide to Coler Sidelights on Contests In Other States. OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, "Wash ington, Nov. 5. Upon considering the sev eral phases of the elections, the Adminis tration is quite well satisfied. It is true that President Roosevelt and his Intimate friends would have been much gratified to have seen a larger majority for Odell inNew Yorlc, and a larger majority In the House, but at the oame time the Coler vote in New York and the defeat of a number of Congressional candidates can not be traced to any antipathy to Admin istration policies. Nearly all reverses to the Republican party can be traced di rectly to local causes, and not to any op position to President .Roosevelt, or any of the policies for wnich he etande. If , the coal strike had not been settled through the efforts of President Roose velt the elections would have resulted In a positive disaster to the Republican party. Thla Is everywhere conceded, the Democrats acknowledging that the settle ment of the strike went a long way to ward preventing them having a sweeping victory. Cause of Change in Xcw Yorlc. In accounting for the phenomenal vote for Coler In Great New York, several reasons are given. Among them Is, a re sentment df-tho dictatorial policy of Odell In political matters for a number of years past. Again, tho administration of Mayor Low has not been a euccees. The condi tions which made Low Mayor -are worse In New York than they were before, and the reform for which the people voted has not been carried out. On the other hand, the Mayor's office has been i used for the purpose of promoting the inter ests of private friends, especially In tho matter of appointments. There has been a laek of practical administration, such as Roosevelt, Root and other such strong men would give a city should they be placed In power. Then, Hill and Tam many and Cleveland and the mugwumps were united. Such a combination" has not been brought about In many years not since the election of Roswcll P. Fowler. And this tended to give an Impetus to the Democratic campaign in New York City which was barely overcome in the state at large. The phenomenal run of Odell up the etate io accounted for by the fact that the Republicans became thoroughly aroused a few days before the election over the extravagant claims which the Democrats were making for the city, and every effort was put forth to poll every Republican vote. This, together with the Tine weather, made It possible to overcome tho great vote of Coler below the Bronx. The charges of fraud which Coler and his friends are making will only cause amusement, ao every one Is aware that it is not in the country districts but In the cities, where Coler polled his strong est vote, that election frauds are suc cessfully carried out. Losses in House Explained, The narrow margin by which the Re publlcano control the House of Repre-i sentatives might be termed a reverse to the National Administration were it not for the fact that the defeat of Republi cans in many districts was caused by local reasons wholly. For example, Coler carried five districts In New York which the Democrats had conceded to the Re publicans previous to the election. In Pennsylvania three men were elected as Indtpcndtnts who were simply opposing the Quay machine in Allegheny County. Another Republican was defeated in the coal district. In the Southern States the restriction of suffrage and the feeling pre vailing almost everywhere that It would be useless for the Republicans to con test the elections caused tho loss of four or five states. The three Republican dis tricts in St. Louis have beem gerry mandered Into one district, and Missouri sends but one Republican Instead of three, as heretofore. Two Republicans were de feated dn Maryland by the disfranchise ment of the negro vote, although they will no doubt be carried through In a Presidential ypar. The Republicans lost Delaware because an Addlcks- and an anti Addlcks man were running as Republi cans. An unpopular nomination cost the Republicans a. eeatin Iowa, while the nomination of a 'free raw-material candi date In Massachusetts lost another seat, Foss being defeated. Corliss was defeated In Michigan because of his especial championship of the Government Pacific cable, and also because he was one of the leaders In opposing President Roosevelt's reciprocity policy. Fletcher, of Minne sota also waa an opponent of the Presi dent's reciprocity policy, and he was de feated by John Llnd, but the large Scan dinavian vote in that place' was responsi ble for Llnd's success. Mercer was de feated in Nebraska because Edwin Rose water, editor of the leading Republican paper, was personally opposed to him. There is no especial accounting for the defeat of Republican members in Rhode CONTENTS OF TODAY'S PAPER. Eastern Elections. Next House will be Republican by at least 25. PaL-e 1.

TWO, MEN SINGLED OUT Piper and Wooding Lose by Factional Fights. P.-J.' HELPED TO KILL LATTER Railroads Alleged to Have Contrib uted Liberally to Down Piper Be cause He Once "Worked for a Commission. SEATTLE, Nov. 5. (Special.) With the exceptions of the Democratic candidate j for Sheriff, Edward Cudlhee, and Judge 1 W. H. Moore, candidate for Senator in the Thirty-fourth District on the .same ticket, yesterday's election In King Coun ty was a sweeping Republican victory. The election, however, was in many re-, spects the most remarkable, in the, an nals of the county. Factional quarrels in the party led to an amount of knifing at the polls which exceeded in extent and in bitter intent and determination the slaughter of Frlnk, the Republican can didate for Governor two years ago, who lost this, his home county, by several hundred votes, while McKinley's major ity here approximated 2500. The warring Republican workers had. figuratively speaking, exhausted the cut lery supplies of the entire town long before the polls opened. Long: Knife Out for Woodlngc. John Wooding, the Republican nominee for Sheriff, than whom there is no more capable and honest man in King County, was marked for slaughter days ago. The knife was out early also for George U. i Piper, the Republican candidate for State Senator in the Thirty-fourth District, comprising the Fourth "Ward and the first, second and fourth precincts, of the First "Ward. The latter precincts are Democratic under- normal conditions, but have heretofore been controlled by the Clancy brothers, well-known politicians and sporting men, who have managed to swing the precincts Into the Republican column, when to 'their interest. Strong: Line-Up Airalsist Piper. The tight in Piper's district was more bitter than can well be understood out side of King County. Because of the fact tha.t Piper is one of the leading advocates of the railroad commission measure and is a politician of great organizing abili ties, the railroads went after his scalp early. They enlisted the support of such business men as J. D. Iiowman, a million aire and -one of the heirs to the Yes Ier estate; C. J. Smith, one of the rich est business men In the city; James Gold smith and ex-Governor J. H. McGraw, who has been at outs ' with Piper per sonally and politically for some time. The three men named organized a good gov ernment club and systematically can vassed the district, working especially in the Fourth Ward, In which Is situated the most fashlonableresidcnce district of the city.- J. D. Farrcll, the main, representative here of President James J. Hill, of the Great Northern, aided by railroad law yers and politicians, organized a strong force of workers in the Clancy end of the district. The work against Piper was done with much effectiveness, and. while tho Clancys claimed l3te last night that when the count was completed it would be fihown that they had carried the First Ward for Piper, the votes as counted told a different story, and the Clancy control in the district seems to have been demolished. The fight asainst Piper cost'a very large sum of money, it is said. It was directed, as to details, largely by Charles P. Cham berlain, the well-known Spokane politi cian and ex-recelvcr "of the Washington Central Railroad. Preston Resents Piper's Defeat. - The defeat of -Piper Is -deeply resented by the friends cf Harold Preston, the King County Senatorial candidate. Piper and Preston were two of McBride's mo3t powerful aids In the Legislature of 1901, when the great fight was made against the railroads in the upper chamber of the Legislature. Piper was not a member, but was in attendance at Olympla work ing for the commission bill during a large part of the cession. He manifested great organizing ahilities, and the railroads felt the effect of his . influence. Preston worked unceasingly . for Piper, the two men being close personal and political friends. Prccton sent out personal let ters to the voters of the Thirty-fourth district urging them to support Piper, but these and similar efforts wore unavil ing against the powerful organization formed within the party by the anti-Piper men. Moore's majority is given semi-oRl-clally at 75. P.-I. Support Killed Woodlnff. Woodlng's defeat was a rebuke to the Pcst-Intell'.gencer, which paper has pldyed the part of a political Iahmaelite ever since it passed to the control of John L. Wilson, the Spokane claimant to the Scn atorship. The Post-Intelligencer made no effort to defend Piper in his campaign, which was even a.t that probably a lucky thing for him. Neither did It take up the cudgels for John Wooding, who. It Is known. Is now on friendly terms with Wilson, having been his enemy in cam paigns of the past. The Poat-In-telligcncer's campaign agains Cudlhee was the vary essence of crudeness, and In jured Wooding vitally. The latter'a friends tried to have the morning paper muzzled, but without success. It trumped up a lot of trifling charges against Cudl hee, trying to prove that he was not honest. While only a fairly efficient offi cer, Cudlhee's honesty has never once been doubted In his long residence here. Nor Is there a question an to his per gonal courage, which waa also lnfcrentlal iy the subject of attack by the Post-In telligencer. The latter's bungling work cost Wooding fearfully 'in the heavily Re publican districts, where he ran way be hind his ticket. This was especially true In the Seventh Ward, the strongest Re publican ward In the state, where Cudi hee ran hundreds of votes ahead of his ticket. The voters made no attempt to conceal the knife or to hide the fact that they sought to rebuke the Post-Intelll gencer and Wllsonlsm. The Senatorial Races. In the same district many Republicans applied the knife to E. B. Palmer, the Republican Senatorial candidate, whose opponent, William Plgott, is one of the best known business men in Seattle. The latter, however, was unable to overcome the large normal Republican majority in the district. The defection in the Seventh was due to the fact that Palmer Is a notorious Wilson man. Senator Andrew Hemrlch, of the First Ward, was made the target for the weap- (Concluded on Second Page.) REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR ELECTED BY CALIFORNIA DR. GEORGE C.

The totals given are believed to be correct, although there are a few districts, such as two in Colorado and one in Minnesota, where tho Republican and Democratic party managers, respect ively, do not concede defeat, but the gen eral result could not be affected even, should their claims prove well-founded.
