His control of I Brooklyn virtually made him undisputed I master Of tlie state, and tills tXOOOtA I him U> new and additional perils of re? volt and repudiation. The mightier tM became the more reason tin- public hn?l for smiting him. and it has struck him ? Mow from which he will never recover. . Rverything Is against him?the appetite] Of his party for victory; the spirit of the day. for he belongs In the limbo of the past, and the new system of making nominations which his enemies bar* ?rung from him. The people had a chance to "get at" Murphy on Tuesday They never had such I chance before. Hitherto he has stood hefiyo only | limited electorate whoso p?i,itica! nmrals had been cor? rupted. Brooklyn and the state could ' not say what they thought of him. Or j It they could say what they thought of him. he was discreetly hidden behind Dix or QgJBOT er MKS? other "re spectab.e." This time he stood out in Ithe open. He was either foolhardy or ! hi was the victim Of the circumstance* ; tbat had aggrandized him. He was a fair mark. He stood upon l high place where no one could miss him. Men who had been aching for years to "get at" Murphy "got at" him finally. He may linger, but from the wo*JOdl *f Tuesday he ?trill never recover. THE TVRNTNQ or THF TIDE The flood tide which a year ago swept ! the liemocrnts into power in the national House of Representatives and in many of the states is OH the ebb. In I'll analysis of Tuesday's election results those who ?Till make the Republican light ne\t year cannot but lind much reason for eacouratron.ent. Thief among Republican vicarios is, [Of COUrse, that In New York, where t.l ?? , Democrats have been tried and found wantin? and where the Republican ina ?jonty In the Assembly plainly Indicates that, had the people bad an opportunity [farther to express tlienselTes, Go?/*sTnor Pix would have completed his term with a legislature hostile t?> bim and i his party In both branches. Of less sig? nificance, but important, is the result In I New Jersey, where the Senate remains. IRepublican and the Assembly baa been regained. The Republican majority in Maryland, while the immediate result, no douht of attempted DeinMMntIc frlckery, af? fords much ground for hope that that state will ho fnumi In the Republican column a year hence. The present vic? tory will encourage the workers all along the line and inspire them with new energy for I!?'.-'. In Massachusetts ??be majority of Gov? ernor Foes was too lir?e t?. ho wiped Oltt at one stroke, but its ?reduction from the WfiOO of a year ago to less than U.ooct is certainly a striking evidence ??f the ti'i-nd of sentiment in the Bay ! State. The election of i ?Republican ?Leg lislature iu New Mexico Insures two Re-I Ipublican Senators from that state and Checks what teemed to he | ?.?eneraI I tendency ?to reduce the Republican ma? jority in the upper bont? of Oongi In Rhode Island the Republican victory was derisive. Kentucky is a disappoint* | ment. It was an "Ott year." hut in iii'.?t I instances when the people had an oppor? tunity to express themselres they f-hnwod a realization of their error In ?turning to the De?rnocracy a year aft. 'i bone that the ?lections of ? year "ago merely indicated that the goo.l "people of this country had dedded to "??hasten the party they loved, ihnt it "might c? on to hetter thing-." s.?ii?? Presidenl Taft to the Hamilton ?Club, of ?Chicago, recently, and Tuesday's elec? limis seem to Indfcate that the Rr*. ~ - I dent's hope ?aras well founded. THE RESULT IN NEW JERSEY. Popular interest in the New Jer "V election oaturally centres, first of all. -n Iti presumptive effert upon the political fortun?e of ?Groveraor v.'iison. ami the genera] judgment will certainly be that the effect must be unfavorable. The GoT?ernor made n strenuous pel campaign for the election of a Demo? Legislature, and the state has i a ^legislature Republican Inbotb branch?"?. Thai must be rcganlcd as ,? defeat for him and as likely t?> Impair bis prestige lo ??tome degree. v?'t on re :i?"-ri>>??. while a personal rebuff to him, ii appeara even more to I ? lion of the state'- Republicanism and a dent? ation of i!i?' i'-ict thai .'m eng iging mality und persuasive eloquence cannot permanently lead New .lors-??- ! ,-.uay from the political principles which it long tgo deliberately adopted and whicb it ha- found, on t1;" whole, t<? porl wi'h its besi Interests ii will not ?I?? to say that the yesull va- due -"''!.' t?i |,?'i'-'.nai antagonism i?, the Governor on the pan of the ?Ess \ I County machine.

"'.' BALFOUhVS RBTIREMEVT. Mr. Hiifour's retirein??nt from the leadership ?if the l'nioni-t party is a sicnitKant and even momentous Ineldent in the political history of the Dull ??! Kingdom. The adoption of the Lloyd GtOrge budget, the abolition of th? Lords' vet? power, the payment of sal? aries to members of the Commons and Other recent naetSUres may have seemed more spnsation.il and may he teolmienllv ?if irrealer Importante. But Mr. Btl? fcnr's action Indicates ? changa in the policy, if not In the very constitution, of the party of united eonservatlsm which must be of great Influence upon the fut? ure course of imperial polities. The ostensible reanon \vhi<'h is given for his retirement is that the state of his health demands it. Without Impugning the sincerity of that explanation, it must lie ~?i:sp?*et??d that an entirely eninplo?o avowal upon the **Obj?t*Ct would deal at least equally With the state of health of the party of which Mr. Balfour bai haet* the leader. There has never been BOJ secret made of (Lio fa?Ct that political leadership I?? dlstaatefnl to Mr. Half?.or. nn?l thai he a?-snnied 1t and retained it so longtolely from a sente of publie duty. l!(' has given ?lays and nights to political labor.? which he w?**uld ?greatjy bare preferred to spend In his study or on the coif I1n!,?4. He has been regarded as tacking some Ol the foivmost elements of leadersl!i|i. sue]? as were |?*nafs?8's?ed hy Gladstone, Disraeli and the few others with whom he Is appropriately to be compared. Ye; not o.-cn his mm! critical opponents have ever questioned the *mc?~en which he has generally attained. Both In office and in opposition he lias kepi ih?' leadership al the high level of the best traditions of the ".Mother of Parliaments" and 'ins Invested it with an intellectual dignity, a moral Integrity and a personal charm which have not been ro"*paf*jed. In early life be was bj no means the least Importan! ami Influential of uo\ four free lances who constituted that formidable Fourth Party <>f protest and ?Irritation; and be afterward became the incarnation of party regularity. Down to the moment of hi*- appointaient Bi frith ?Secretary he was regarded as i ''languid 111] of dlleltantelsm" and was sneeringly called "Mi?? Balfour," hu1 thenceforward be showed himself Inflex? ible and Inexorable in performing the duties *.f thai arduous place. Perhaps thete two fact? ??re. more than any oth? ers, indicative of his comprehensive ind complex character, by virtue of which he lias liepn able to adapt hllUM masterfully lo nnsougbt and uncongo? cirtmmstances and lo invest his : hip of a more or less recalcitrant ? party. In times of ?peculiar duh'mity and embarreaament, with so mii*-!i of ?lis-; tjnctlon and with so large a measure of succe?s nis retirement leaves a ra* caney which will ool be Oiled ?precirely .- Pilled it. and the difference be> i the new leadership, whoever may exercise it, and the old will be vitally Mgnlficnnt Of future development a in this unstable age of British political history. Tin: FOROOTTBTS. i .??'?.I there he any berter Illustration of the utier Insignificance of the Go** ernor of this state than the fnet that all the morning newspapers oxeept The Tribune, In commenting upon the result of the election, praetieally forgot all about Dix"! And The Tribune referred only briefly and Incidentally to the Condemnation of his administration. The state bad gone ov*-ro**??*~lmlng~y against the nemoeratie party, and yet no one ihoncht of the official bead "f the I?4*mo cratlc administration. The wreck of ?Democratic power and opportunity in this state was being cleared away. The victims wre all supposed to have been recovered and removed before any one thought of Mix and remembered that he, too, was buried in the cataatropbe. He was almost forgotten l^ecauee be easily forgettable. Nothing that he does "?- U serves i?> keep him In mind. The state baa gone through a campaign, leu none of the political opponents of the 1 lemocrntlc party tl worth ?. hile to waste any breath on Governor Dix. iiis personality was only Ind? dental, so completely has he become merged In Murphy, if be ha?i been a mere amanuensis of the b?oss be would hardly bare been more negligible than by common contrat be was daring the campaign and on the morning after its results became Known and comment was In order. No one thought it worthwhile to treat him as if be had a separate "x istenee from the boat. He was a mere appartenance of the boat, and t?? strik?? 1 oss a crashing blow uns enough. The Intdgnlflcanre of the ?Governor had iti advantage?, In enabling tbe public to concentrate it- attention upon Murphy, but how humiliating to be so dwarfed by such a person as to be practically forgotten on the morning after election! oro lyiztXQ mi: issbmbly. I the election of a Speaker and I be organization of the new Assembly the Kepnblieans will face a teat of prime importan.??? in its ?beating on the course of legislation and their party succ?s-, ?u m xi year's elections. It la inevitable, for the purpose of accomplishing and ? tpediting basinets, that there should i?? an organisation In every legislative bodj Everything depends on the cbar* a? t?er of tin? organisation. The Assembly machine which existed under Speaker Nixon was smashed hy Speaker Wadi ) '?' : e himself In two or thr? e years built up i machine ? blch In it control by s few men and it? ns.? by them for their own political '-mis v. powerful as tbe Nixon machine, though n*.i devoted to ? rec sel] Imitar pur : The Tammany machine created ? ?

Tammany's Assembly or* Hon ?I'd 'd irphy'a blddlug, though II was compelled lo break platform |?l< Ig? i . i .oi,hi? ||g failli i., tbe public and to ?flout and flef- the Attembly rules In order to permit a minority ?te "verride a majority of the memliers. The voters prohal-ly k'ie-.v and cared little about the manner in which this was accomplished?th? artful dlstrihu tlon of committee ehnirmanships and committee places, the use of patronage and ?the like. The voters did kxxow that I hey had given the Democrats a chance to "make good" ou a general adminis? trative programme which suited the piihlle reasonably well, and that Instead of making good the Democrats presented to public view a session of hnllylng. treasury plundering, job grabbing imll tlcs of the worst stripe of bosslsm. At the coming session th?? Republicans can elect a Speaker of such record ami i ? character and run so organize the As? sembly as to command respect and pub i lie suppcrt. They can serve their party with credit by using the necessary <?r | ganizatl'Mi In a legitimate way In the ? promotion of legislation in the public interest and the blocking of Murphy's schemes in the Senate nnd his state departments. Rnt they cannot serve their party or retain public conflden?'? if the Assembly organization is per? mitted to become the personal property of any little group of men, In or ont of the party, lo be used by them as some political machines have been used . In past years. The lesson of Kloetion i Day in Its rebuke of Murphyism should have been unmistakable. We hopo that ? those responsible for the policy of the I Republican party in this state learned It. That trial marriage to Murphy whf<?h the ?tat?* made on the ndvlco of "Thi? World..?The Times" nn?l "The Evening Post" seems to have been dissolved. Are the 643 votes Riven In Brooklyn to ? S'irrogHte Ketcham and withheld from I his ?associate, Mr. Wlllett, together with ! th? ~Ji7R votes withheld from Mr. ' Kemham and given to Mr. ?"aliaban, to be tnken as the measure of BuiT?a?gattS ?<'lerk McC'ooev'.s popularity? Greater New York goes Republican by 1&000 majority. A bitter pill for Mur? phy to swallow. I There Is, of coirrse, no question regnrd Ing the Preaidential candidat?? of tho Republican party, but the friends of GrOV?*trnor Wilson will find difficulty In persuading hia party that the results In Now .ror.sey wore not a clearly spoken 'repudiation of th? ir hero. As for Gov? ernor ?Fuse of MasssaOhnsetts, the reduc? tion of his majority is probably sum ctentiy serious to talc* him completely out of the Presidential, or even the VI <?.?? rresbbntial, fjiiatlon. William laOeb, Jr.. and his Inflexible assistants nay nt leapt prore valuable to the theatrical pre?s agents. -? The election of ?Sodallai candidates for various offices in tills state, New Jersey .ltd Ohio and tho general gains In the Socialist vote should furnish food for . ht to the political leaders of the two old parties. In ?each cate where the So.iaiists ?le. ted their candidate local issue?; and Iccni Interests undoubtedly played a prominent part. They certainly did In this state. Yet socialism is un questlonably gaining adherents on its claims is 11 polltl?*nl-aconomlc creed, thanks to Its system of rrcanlzlng and of seeking converts. The election of ten Socialist mayor:-. In <~>hl?i Is attributed bj the Socialists to those causes. It must be a great comfort to Mr. McCooey to reflect that Surrogate Ketcham Is "human," according to his own confession, and so will probably l?t him keep his ?$9,000 Job, even though th" pack turn to rend their leader, While the ?"?overnor of New Jersey was trying to bring the ether ?sheep into the Wilson Presidential fold he lost enough from this Jersey fold t<> r?'b him of th?

A movement for "improving the bree 1 of men" has lern Itartad at the Young Men's Christian Association, and, .-tr.'inge to Fay, there Is not a word In It aboul the need Of repealing the laws agsinsl racetrack gambling.

Millions of enthusiastic people have vain? ly attempted to pay visits to the men-of war, only to be subject to the extortion of boatmen and to delays of transportation which do not exist In any other city of the glob.- Endeavoring to roach municipal pltrs on the river front, from 72*1 street to 12ilth street, they have discovered noth? ing hut ;i stretch of dilapidated water front ?o which no practical access could be found, except In one or two lnstancs, the shore being in a most unattractive, not to sav disgraceful, condition. It || now ten years since men Interest? ed In marine affairs advocated an addi? tion to Riverside Drive and showed the ne? cessity of a better means of eommuni"ation between the highland and the waters of th? North River At the time of ihe Hudson-Fulton cele? bration ta official temporary pier was erected as fin eliject lesson, to show th?? necessity of ? permanent water gate, at which high naval officials of this and other countries Could be received with dignity. ITptn this temporary structure and other small one, quickly built for the occasion some 110,000 was spent, which sum repre? sents more than the ?nteres' Upon the money necessary to give permanent land ] lags commensurate with the position New fork reprcfiet.ts as the grtttttt seaport of America. Again, it is indeed -ringular that, constd i cring the fact that many Individuals, as? sociations and corporations are ready and anxious tO assist in reclaiming the fiats lying between the sh'ire and the bulkhead line, aome three, hundred feet out in th*? liver, and paying the expense therefor, the ? ity does not give th.-m the helping band that It should Among those interested in tain most laudable object ars Columbia University, the Robert Kulten Association, the Naval Academy Alumni Association, the Municipal Art ?Society, the Naval III? ! liria, of the H'a"- of New York /ind the 'New York ?'entrai Il-allroad.

No land j is taken from the city, but. on the other ! hand, at the foot of the h!U would be cre | tttd a new shore extending to the gov? ernment bulkhead line, wh*-reon COUM be platted most attractive structures, piers and canals where access to our noblest stream would be supplemented by marine pastimes ? approach to rich and poor a'lk?- - ?.?.hole locality to be Improved under Ihe Jurisdiction of a heard of comp?-'?
