Last Past Hymn: "O Valiant Hevelt. Out of forty-eight states the Democrats carried all but six on returns available this morning.

The Democratic victory was carried through all of the .state tickets. Not only Is the victory of Roosevelt more crushing than that administered by Hoover to Albert E. Smith four years ago. but the president-elect will have complete control in both branches of the new congress, which will ensure prompt legislative effect to his policies. One feature of the contest was the defeat of nearly every disciple of high tariff offering for re-election.
