McCall Flected Governor By Small Plurality

Samuel Walker McCall, Republican, was elected Governor of Massachusetts at the state election yesterday, defeating Governor David I. Walsh by a margin estimated at about 12,000 on the face of incomplete returns.

Calvin Coolidge defeated E. P. Barry for Lieutenant-Governor by a majority estimated at least 40,000. The woman suffrage amendment in Massachusetts went down to defeat by 75,000 or more, the vote being about 2 to 1 against it. Suffrage was also defeated in Pennsylvania and New York state, although the margin was somewhat closer.
