MORNING APPEAL
THE ELECTION.

Immediately after the opening of the polls
yesterday at the Curry Engine House the
voting commenced and but little time was
lost by the voters, nearly all of whom had
their tickets ready, in depositing their bal
lots. Up to noon, when our reporter found
the election officers attacking a substantial
luncheon, and manifesting an Indifference as
to State or local results, 1876 votes had been
polled, or nearly one-half of the registered
voters of Carson precincts. (The whole num-
Der of votes on the Great Register for this
precinct was l,OO6.) For about an hour in
the middle of the day there was lull in
voting, but the vorters began to pull up after
| o'clock, and at clock 621 votes had been
pollsd.
At o'clock $50 votes were in the ballot
box.
The total number of votes polled at 3
o'clock P. NJ the hour of closing, was $50.
At this writing it is impossible to tell any
thing about the result, neither party, Repub-
icans or 'Citizens," feeling confident that
they have carried Ormsby County 1t was
claimed during the latter part of the day that
Governor Bradley had been freely scratched
by Democrats, and would run behind his
ticket, but this, like most of the opinions
heard around the polls, was mere speculation
Harry Day, Democratic candidate for Sur
veyor General, is supposed to have run con-
.iderably ahead of his ticket. Both tickets
were badly scratched, and the percentage of
straight tickets is probably lighter than was
ever before known in Carson.
Kinkead's majority in this precinct is $40.

BUSINESS SUSPENDED business houses
of Carson with very few exceptions we're
closed yesterday, as the MORNING APPEAL
some DAYS ago suggested, and proprietors and
employees were generally engaged throughout
the day in working the tickets, or, in most
cases, advocating favorites on the local tickets
There was a good deal of word sparrlng
among the election workers, but 1t was gen
erally of the good -natured sort, and the con-
test Yesterday at the polls was as free from
bitter personalities as we have ever seen it on
election day.
Too MUCH ELECTION, PRoBABLY.-Two
Indian women evidently from some of the
outside precincts, for they couldn't have got
whisky here yesterday, put in an appearance
during the afternoon, and they looked as If they
had fingered long with the rosy We strongly
suspect that some one had rung in stick in
their lemonades, and the officers evidently
were of the same opinion, for these dusky
maidens of the sagebrush had accommodations
last night at the Hotel de Swift.
AN ORDERLY ELECTIGN-Never have We
seen fewer drunken men, heard less noise,
nor witnessed fewer demonstrations of black
guardism on an election day than in Carson
Yesterday There was not fight nor even a
heated discussion from the opening to the
closing of the polls, but the working repre-
sentatives of both parties labored hard for the
success of their respective tickets, and did
their work good -naturedly.
RUMoRs. -An were anxious yesterday to
hear from Storey County, which seemed to be
the real political battle ground, but not an item
of reliable news was transmitted But in the
absence of anything like real news We had
plenty of rumors, one of which reported that
the Democratic and Legislative tickets were
ahead in Storey, while another gave Kinkead
decided majority in that county.
GONE BELow.-John T. Pantlind, landlord
of the Ormsby, went to San francisco last
night. Pants business is to lay in Winter
stock of edibles and drinkables for the pop
uIar Ormsby, and this completed, he will
once more be back at his post, where friends
and customers may rely upon always receiving
cordial and gentemaniy treatment
Locals Scarcely Yesterday was dull day
for locals in Carson, and perhaps 1t just as
well, for the reporters labors were light;
besides we have too high respect for the good
taste and sound judgement of the readers OF
the Morning APPEAL to suppose that they
expect a full local depart ment to day.

An anecdote is told of Dries
bach, the once famous lion tanner,
who died on his farm in Ohio a
few days ago, aged seventy, 8
poor but cOntented man. At an
exhibition gwen in New York,
twenty years ago, he was taken
out of "a cage covered with blood,
and apparently dreadfully injur-
ed, after severe fight with a
tiger. The audience shrieked,
and much horror was expressed.
For a fortnight afterward Dries
bach appeared with his arm in a
sling and his face covered with
bits of plaster. Then it leaked
out that his wounds were imagi-
nary; the gore had come from a
sponge filled with rose pink, and
the whole performance was moth
ing but a clever piece of adver
tiseing.

BAD PLACE FOR TRAsIPs.-A tran,

BAD PLACE FOR TRAMPs. A tramp
passing through Hubbardston, VI,
few days ago, met a young man on
the sidewalk, and accosted him with
the following result: "What accom-
modations has this town for travel
ers 2" "Two good hotels" was the
reply. "Yes-yes; but what ac-
comnodations for poor travellers
that cannot pay for a lodging?'
VERY poor; the cell in the lock up
are not as comfortable as our herse-
stalls" 81 should think a person
would be liable to take cold." mused
the tramp. "Take cold" replied
the young man: why, two tramps
troze to death there one day last
week" II should think it wonld
be for the interest of the town to
furnish more comfortable accommo-
dations; 1t must be a great expense
to bury the bodies this cold wealth
er." ooh, no." says the young
man; "on the contrary, it is very
profitable; they send the bodies to
the dissecting rooms. and receive
$40 apiece for them" The tramp
inquired the distance to the nearest
town.

Duties Of Business Men.

The celebrated DR.. johnson said:
LET no man enter into business
while he is ignorant OF the matter of
regulating books; never let him i'm
agine that any degree of natural
ability Will supply the deficiency
or preserve the multiplicity of affairs
from inextricable confusion" This
is sound advice. and should be heed
ed by all young men contemplating
q business career. Among houses
conducting the more extensive ana
complicated operations of commerce.
irregularity in the management of
their accounts is now becoming a
rare occurrance. But this is far
from being the case among the mid
die and smaller classes of dealers
and mechanics. The frequent fail
ures among them often disclose the
most culpable ignorance and negli-
gence in the management of their
accounts. and as the extensive deal
ers are themselves often the severest
sufferers by these events, they
should consider it their duty to
make inquiry into the business quail
ifcations of those to whom they ex
tend confidence. And they should
use their Influence to impress i.
strongly upon the minds of such
persons, that the want of that knowl-
edge, which is to be obtained alone
from systematic accounts, must al
ways increase the hazard of ultimate
failure in business, and it is there
fore the first and most obvious duty
of every dealer and trader great or
small, to keep precise and method
ical account of his transactions.
Every young man should remember
that his value in the commercial
world will depend upon his qualifi-
cations as business man, and early
in life prepare himself by athorough
course of instruction for the duties
of the connting-house. Even if he
never has occasion to employ his
time in keeping books, it is no less
imperative. as a thorough-going
business man, that he should be, a
competent accountant.

Justice to Major HaIIer.

The Committee ON Military AT
fairs in the House of Congress,
to whom was referred the Joint
resolution introduced by Hon.
o. Jacobs, authorizing a Court
Of Inquiry in the case of Gran
vile o. Haller, late of the 7th
Infantry, U. S. Army, submitted
a report from which We extract
the following:
Granville o. Haller entered
the army as second lieutenant of
the Fourth Infantry on the 18th
day of November, 1889. In 1910
he joined his regiment at Fort
Gibson, and he saw active and
continuous service in the Flor
ida war as acting adjutant ofhis
regiment.
In 1916 the Third and Fourth
regiments Of Infantry became
the army of occupation on the
borders of Texas, and took pos
session OF st. Joseph's Island
and Corpus Christi. He there
acted as brigade major of the
Sd brigade title now obsolete.
In 1916 the army of occupa-
ton marched to the Rio Grande,
and encamped opposite Matamo-
ras. He there was appointed
commissary Of the Sd brigade.
Relinquishing that position for
one of more active duties in the
field, he participated in the bat
ties Of Palo Alto, Resaca de la
Palma, Vera Cruz, Cerro Gordo,
and IN all the battles in the val
ley Of Mexico.
In the terrible battle of Ell
Molino del Rey he was one of
the storming party, and was not
only complimented by his supe-
rior officer for his gallantry, but
on the Sth of September, 1S47,
received his commission of cap
tam by brevet for gallant and
meritorious conduct in that bat
tie.
On the 18th Of September,
1917, he was commissioned ma.
jor by brevet for gallant and
meritorious conduct in the bat
tie Of Chapultepec.
In 1852 Major Haller and his
company were sent to the Paci-
fic coast. and in 1853 was sta
toned at Fort Dalles, in the
then Territory Of Oregon. He

Labor Reform Parry.

preacher and chronic office-seek-
er; Governor, NJ. wilkins, a large
land proprietor; Secretary OF
State, W. A. Gates; State Treas
urer, Tendall Sutherlin, a man
of wealth and large land propri-
etor; State Printer, D. w. Craig,
one of the oldest printers in
the State, and the first Rspubli-
can candidate for that office;
State Superintendent, W. W,
Parker, who has held local Of
fees and occasionally a subor-
dinate Federal Office at Astoria
for many years. The ticket, as

observation has confirmed. Un-

SATURDAY. APRIL IS. 1878
Contested Seats.

times that contested seats in
Congress are determined, in al
most every instance by mere
party power, with little regard
to the merits Of the case, as in
the determination Of the Presl-
Dental election by the. Commits
sion, in which every Republican
member sustained the doctrine
of absolute State sovereignty,
and every Democrat voted for
Federal interference IN State af-
fairs to correct supposed irregu-
larities by State officials; party
success being held by each as
paramount to all considerations
Of principle.
In the recent contest between
Virgins (Democrat), and Pa
checo (Republican), Pacheco
held the seat on the certificate
of the Democratic Secretary of
the State Of California, under
the great seal thereof, confirmed
by the State Supreme Court on
appeal. 1t would be difficult to
present a more conclusive docu-
mentary title, yet the Republi-
can was ousted and the Demo
crat seated by strict party
vote, with the single exception
of one Democratic member. This
was just causc of ccmi'iaint on
the part of the Republicans, and
the only justification for the ar
bitrary act is that it was a meas
ure of retaliation for acts of like
injustice when the Republicans
were in power, as if one wrong
justified another; a most abomi-
nable principle for the law
makers of the land to act upon,
involving as it does official per
jury at the demand Of party,
distinctly showing to what base
uses party is applied and what a
dangerous element is party spir-
it in popular government, cor
rupting the highest departments
to which the people look for the
maintainance Of their rights and
the preservation of their liber-
ties.
The writer of this was.a So
lourner in Washington during
the winter of 1S59-60. At that
session the Republicans gained
the organization of the House
after a contest of sixty days or
more. The first act of the vic
torious party was to GUST seven
or eight Democratic members
and give their seats to Republi-
can contestants, most Of whom
would not have attempted to
prosecute a contest but for the
fact that their party had the
power to decide in their favor.
Estabrook, the Democratic Del
egate from Nebraska, who was
elected by large popular ma
jority, had his seat given to Dill
Ion, now a United States Judge,
upon mere technical questions,
which had no regard to the
equities Of the case or to popu-
lar rights. While the matter
was pending, the Chairman of
the Committee on Elections met
Estabrook, his old classmate and
friend, in our room one evening,
when the latter commenced say
ing: "Now, Morrill,, you know
that as a principle of law
Without waiting for time to fin
ish the sentence, Morrill, ex-
claimed: "Law be hanged! Don't
you know, Estabrook, that this
is not a question Of law, but of
politics. We have the power
and intend to use it. You would
do the same it you were in
power" That was conclusive,
