DEMOCRATIC TICKET
MAKES CLEAN SWEEP
Former Governor Alfred E. Smith, Democratic nominee for governor of New York State, was elected over Nathan L. Miller, the present governor, by one of the largest pluralities ever given a candidate for that office, at Tuesday’s election. His vote even exceeded the expectations of his own party leaders. 

Albany county gave Smith 47,760 against Miller’s 32,712. 

Dr. Royal S. Copeland, Democratic candidate for United States Senator, defeated Senator William M. Calder by nearly 300,000. 

Mayor George R. Lunn, of Schenectady, Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, won over William J. Donovan of Buffalo, the Republican nominee, by nearly 200,000. The whole state Democratic ticket was elected.

— Early Monday morning thieves entered the home of W. H. S. Miner in this village, carrying away about five hundred dollars worth of loot, consisting of money, a diamond ring and other pieces of jewelry. The same morning, robbers attempted to enter the home of C. H. Wood, forcing a lock on one of the doors. The barking of the dog frightened the intruders and awakened the family. The home of A. W. Mather was visited the same morning, but before effecting an entrance the thieves were evidently frightened away. On the same night thieves tried to effect entrance into the residences of E. J. Slingerland on the New Scotland road and Charles Deitz on Southside avenue. The barking of the owners’ dogs frightened them away.
