REPUBLICANS SWEEP NATION
IN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
&ETUKNB FROM VARIOUS STATES INDICATE GREATEST
LANL SLIDE IN HISTORY FROM ALL OVER
UNITED STATES.
HARDING AND COOLIDGE ELECTED
CLAIM MADE ON 358 ELECTORAL VOTES AS RETURNS
SHOW SWEEPING VOTE.
New York, Nov. 3. —New York state
rolled up the staggering plurality of
approximately 1,100,000 for Harding
and Ooolldge. The city of New York,
for years a Democratic hotbed, was
oven more surprising. The city went
for Tnft in 1808 by less than 10,000;
it seems to have given Harding about
440,000 plurality. Harding carried every
borough in the city and Just about
every locality In the entire state. The
sweep of the Republicans was un
dreamed of.
With actual returns far from com
plete Harding was certain of 275 votes
in the electoral college from the fol
lowing states: Connecticut, Delaware.
Idaho, Illinois, lowa, Kansas, Maine,
Massachusetts, Michigan. Nebraska,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New
York, Ohio, Oregon. Pennsylvania.
Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington,
Wisconsin and Wyoming.
The states from which the returns
were too meager to Justify actually
placiug them In either the Harding or
Cox column were: Arizona, 3; Cali
fornia. 13; Colorado, 0; Indiana, 15;
Kentucky, 13; Maryland, 8; Minnesota,
12; Missouri, 18; Montana, 4; Nevada,
3; New Mexico, 3; North Dakota, 5;
South Dakota* 3; Utah, 4: and West
Virginia, 8. Total, 120.
The states which are certain for
Cox are Alabama, Arkansas, Florida,
Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina,
Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee,
Texas and Virginia. Total. 136 votes
in the electoral college.
Chicago. Harding and Coolldge
wore swept Into office in the presi
dential election by the greatest land
slide in political annals.
With 25,000,000 or more Americans
participating In the “groat and solemn”
referendum on the League of Nations
issue, decreed by President Wilson,
the Democratic candidates, Cox nnd
Roosevelt, champions of the Wilson
league, were buried beneath an
avalanche of unprecedented plural
ities from coast to const
The “silent vote," ou which the
Democratic managers relied for the
election of Cox, was cast overwhelm
ingly for Harding.
Governor Cox’s newspaper, The Day
ton (Ohio) News, conceded the elec
tion of Harding. Democratic Nationul
Chairman White has conceded the de

'feat of Cox ami the election of a Re
publican Senate and House.
Incomplete returns at the hour of
going to press indicated that llnrdiug
had won not less than 358 of the 531
votes in the electoral college, on which
basis he would liuvc a majority of 185
over Cox. This breaks the record of
the Republican landslide of IJK>4, which
gave Theodore Roosevelt an electoral
college majority of 159 over Parker.
Illinois smashed all records In these
parts by sending Harding over the line
with something like 700,(XX) or 800,000
more votes than Cox. The Harding
plurality in Chicago alone, whore the
Democrats are stronger than in the
state, Is in exdess of 300,000. On the
basis of one-fourth of the returns, it
looked ns if Cook county would give
Harding a lead of 300,000 or more.
Pennsylvania delivered a Republican
plurality conservatively estimated nt
750,000. Returns from Massachusetts
Indicated that the Bay state had in
dorsed Harding to the tune of at least
300,000 plurality, while Governor Cool
ldge estimated that it would not be
less than 400,000 when the figures were
complete.
Massachusetts furnished the most
impressive spectacle of Democratic de
fection in the country. The Democratic
party in that state, which is 90 per
•cent Irish, was practically wiped out,
the Irish element lining up with Hard
ing because of hitter opposition to the
League of Nations.
"Ohio, the mothor of presidents,"
making a choice between her two
favorite sons, bunded the palm to
Harding, with the compliments of some
200,000 of his fellow citizens in excess
of those who voted for Cox.
New York. —With the possible ex
ception of the contest for the gov
ernorship, which still Is In doubt. Re
publicans apparently have made a
cleun sweep In New York state.
Returns from 6,155 out of 7,308 dis
tricts In New York state give: Cox,
695,435: Harding, 1.619,918, a plural
ity of 924,488 for Harding.
Returns from 5,586 districts out of
7.308 give Harding 1,498,934; Cox,
648,445. If this ratio is maintained »n
the missing districts. Senator Harding
will carry the state by the unprece
dented plurality of 1,125,000 over Gov
ernor Cox.
Clash in Florida.
Tampa, Fla. —In a pitched battle be
tween whiles and negroes at Ocoee,
Fla., four whites and two negroes
were killed, according to reports re
layed to Tampa from Wintergarden,
Fla. Four white men wounded in the
battle have been taken to Wintergar
den for medical attention. The ne
groes, it is said, are barricaded in a
house nnd It is almost impossible to
reach the dead. Seme 200 men from
Wintergarden went to the assistance
of the whites at Ocoee.

Shoup Re-Elected.
On the face of returns early this
morning, Colorado has returned a Re
publican majority in virtually every
one of the sixty-three counties of the
state, which indicates that out of a
probable vote of 305,000 the party will
register a victory for the entire ticket
by more than 30,000.
Complete returns, Including seventy

Marion, Ohio. —Convinced by early
returns of Ills election to the presi
dency, Warren G. Harding issued a
statement saying that Instead of being
exultant over the result, he was
“more given to prayer to God to make
me capable of playing my part-.”
Receiving the returns at his home
here, Mr. Harding declined during the
early evening to make any comment,
and Issued his statement only after
the figures had plied up majorities
for him which his advisers declared

was Indicative of a sweeping defeat
throughout the state for the Derno
cratic-Nonpartlsan League legislative
ticket, unci James M. Collins, Demo
crat and Nonpartisan Leagne indorsee,
for governor.
Republican leaders believed the out
come in Denver was Indicative of the
result throughout the state, and they
had the early returns, giving strong
Republican majorities, to support their
contention.
Gov. Oliver 11. Shoup wus running
ahead of the presidential electors in
the first, precincts heard from outside
of Denver's 211, and Republican state
headquarters believed he would carry
the state by a majority of 35,000 to
50,000.

Concede Harding Election.
New York. —George L. White, chair
man of the Democratic National Com
mittee, has conceded the election of
Senator Harding.
Mr. White also conceded the elec
tion of a Republican Congress.
The following statement was issued
by Mr. White:
“The abandonment by some of the
most prominent Republican leaders of
the very League of Nations which
they helped to construct has been suc
cessful. Tim people have succumbed
to the confusion wrought by these
distinguished men and to the misrepre
sentation of those who would not and
did not understand the League of Na
tions.
“I hope it may yet be rescued from
the political morass and be saved to
mankind.
“No one has uuy occasion for bit
terness or of recrimination. What the
whole people decide, the whole peo
ple must accept.
At the same lime it became khowfl
that the Senator and Mrs. Hording
had made plans for a vacation trip, to
be carried out regurdless of the result
of the election, taking them for a rest
next week in Texas.
“Assuming that the early returns
are wholly dependable, I do not hesi
tate to say that I am pleased, of
course I am happy to utter my grati
tude. But I am not exultant It is
not n personal victory. It Is a re
newed expression of confident Amer
icanism and a national call to the Re
publican party.
