WASHINGTON, D. C. Not. 6. Now
It can be told that the republicans
never expected to gala anything out
of the election.
They have not
apent any real
money, mainly
bee hum they had
none, but also
because they
knew It would
not do any good.
They did not
even open up a.
New York head
quarters for the
first- time that
anyone can remember.
Prom the Inside, their chief purpose j
hae been to save tne nucleus 01 un
Yrtv oreanlzatlon. The result from
eastern and central states, especially ;
Vermont and Pennsylvania, will kh
whether they did.
The republicans have said a lot of
harsh things In this campaign, but
the only thing they are really angry
about Is the way Postmaster-General
Farley took adva"tp rtf them on re-

he Uvea up to the roles of the game.
It Is not the fact that the admlnls-
ration spread relief funds around In
doubtful quarters. The republicans ex- j
pected that, xney aia noi ei r
ley and othere to go around bragging
about It. They feel that democratic
polltlcos tried to create the impres

money, and not the taxpayers'.

3 Die 15 Wounded
In Sudden Climax
Of Political Feud
By W. R. Yahner
HAZ ELTON, Pa., Nov. 6. (AP) The echo of gun fire that wept demo
cratic paraders last night killing three and wounding 15, rang In the ears
of Kelayrea voters as, tense and fearful of further violence, they balloted
today.
The republican leader of the little mountain village five miles south
of here Is held with 13 others aa state and federal authorities start an
Investigation of what Governor Plnchot described today as "an unspeak
able outrage."
Crlea of "Kill them!" came from
the throats of citizens who surged
about state police as the republican
leader, Joseph Bruno, and members
of his family were arrested. Threats
of dynamiting the Bruno home were
muttered.
Caught In Crossfire
The shooting, described aa a raiting
crossfire occurred as men, women and
children, under banners of the demo
cratic party, paraded down the main
street. ,
The lire was opened as the pars
ers reached a point In front of the
Bruno home. Police were told the
shots were fired from the Bruno
home and from the home of Bruno's
nephew, Paul, across the street.
Those killed were: Frank Florilta,
65, of Kelftyres: John Golosky, 28, of
McAdoo; and William Forte, 35. of
McAdoo Heights. Two of the 15 per
sons who were wounded are near
death. One of the latter, Andrew
Kltishlon, 26, of Lofty, was struck by
a score or more of bullets, doctors
said.

blooded murder," as State Democratic
Chairman David L. Lawrence called

N. MEXICO POLLS
The democratic slant on the elec
tion from the Inside is that It will be
the greatest off-year sweep In history.
The democrats count nearly every
niinu eioent Vermont and Pennsyl
vania as already captured and they j
are hopeful of uprooting niamn
deptha of republicanism In those two
states.
They will whisper to you that they
used the new deal relief program as
much as they could. They say the
program was not Inaugurated for po
litical purposes, but to help the coun
try. They cannot aee anything wrong
about advertising the help they gave.
They think they will win, not because
of relief expenditures, but because
the republicans ottered no real Issue,
presented no Inviting alternative pro
gram. Every tactician in both camps will
concede that President Roosevelt gave
a better demonstration of political
skill In this election than he did In
his own election two years ago. That
la a very high compliment.
The side-tracking of Upton Sinclair
was considered superb by all demo
cratic strategists. So was the delicate
handling of the western progressive
problem.
But far more Important than those
two minor maneuvers was the way
the bankers were deftly coaxed out of
the republican camp. That was the
master sub-surface stroke of the cam
paign. How deeply It hurt may be
Judged from Republican Chairman
Pletcher'a astounding announcement,
a few days later, the algnlflcance of
which was entirely lost at the time.
Mr. Fletcher said. In effect, that the
bankers may have said out to the
new deal, but the republican party
would continue to stand for a stable
currency and a balanced budget.
That was Just about the same as a
general announcing publicly that his
artillery had deserted to the enemy,
but that he was continuing to fight
with whatever Infantry he had re
maining. The boys around the stove
believe It was the most Important
statement of the campaign.
SANTA FE, N. M, Nov. 6. ( AP)
New Mexico ballots were cast under
the ahadow of bayonets again this
year as voters went to the polls today
to select two senators, a congressman
and complete state and county tick
ets.
Governor A. W. Hockenhull at his
home In Clovls denied he had ordered
the National Guard mobilized, but
said later he had told Brigadier-General
Osborne C, Wood, adjutant gen
eral, to take a few observers to Las
Vegas if Wood thought it necessary.
Actually, armed and uniformed
National Guardsmen were on duty In
Las Vegas, San Miguel county; In Los
Lunas in Valencia county: a detach
ment waa en route to El rtto In Rio
Arriba county, and guardsmen were
in the plaza at Santa Fe.
FLARES AT POLLS
HOLLAND. MO., Nov. 6. (AP)
Two men were shot to death, two
were wounded and several negroes
were beaten In election day disorders
In this vicinity today.
The disorders supposedly were
prompted by attempts of negroes to
vote. Race feeling has recently flared
elsewhere In southeast Missouri.
Horace Ferrell, 33. a white man.
and an unidentified negro were slain,
and Ferrell's father, John E. Ferrell.
and Clarence Posey, Identified as a
well-to-do white farmer, were criti
cally wounded.
The Ferrells and Posey were report
ed fired upon as they were taking
negroes into town to vote.
Local officers said the Ferrells were
nearlng the Holland school, with two
negroes In their automobile, when
several men pulled up In a car and
opened lire. Horace Ferrell slumped
over dead. His father was critically
wounded.
Later, apparently the same group of
men accosted Posey near the Crescent
night club, Just outside of Holland
and started firing. Details of how
the negro waa killed were not learned.

Can a dead man vote?
This question involved an elec

It waa like this. An absentee

The board finally ruled that the
