VOLUME 58..... seeeee eNO, 20,632 MURPHY GAUGED IT. AMMANY'’S victory is complete. Attempts to minimize it are futile. Tammany has elected all its candidates with the full old- time strength of its vote. Hylan’s plurality is 24,427 greater than Mitchel’s plurality in 1913, afd more than twice that of McClellan in 1903, Republicans in this city have four years ahead in which to realize what did it and to what disastrous extent their wretchedly bungled primary helped to split and demoralize the anti-Tammany forces. Murphy sized up the opposition correctly. The smallness of Hylan, as The Evening World insisted, was the inverse measure of the bigness of Murphy's confidence. The result, including the size of the Hillquit vote, is something for the city to ponder to-day in silent seriousness as an indication of what its loyalty and its sounder civic instinets must reckon with, Other candidates were elected to other offices.

Because at twenty-one a man takes himself and his opinions, and talents, avd bis emotions, and Lis own importance too seriously. He does suffer SO! (When anybody {s looking!) And not thirty—or even forty. Because, then, if he is married he is so welghted down with the struggle and cares of life, And so wrapt up in business or work or ambition or domesticity, That he is not fit company for anybody. And !f be is NOT yet married he is so lonely and Moody, and introspective, and restless, and selfish, ‘That he is not tit company even for himself!
