PORTLAND, Sept. II.
Four hundred and seventy two towns give
Davis Y ,66l, Plaisted II, 7s3. scattering 1885,
The same towns last year: Davis p ,661,
Smith AZ ,567, Garcelon 81 $50. scattering 263;
Davis's plurality is 678, against Fusion plu-
rality last year of 729. Thirty-foar towns
not received, gave last year-Davis 635, Flu
si"nists 1907, scattering 80; Fusion majority
5,27O. If they come the same as last year,
Davis will have left 3O3 plurality Adding
the scattering to that received we have 416,
so that Davis will not get a majority without
further gain Of LA, The total vote to hear
from is !, 1922, which, if it increased FIVE per
cent, like the rest, will bring the aggregate
up to LAG, 800 as per Tuesday nights estimate,
and 800 more than predicted Monday night.
1t will, however, be divided the other way,
namely: Davis e. 33O, PlAiatsd 73,O5O, and
sSs6 06iiks 70 subject, II course, to further
gains or Losses on either side. The twelve
Areestosk towns to come, gave last year,

Now that everything has been "6xed," and a

a howl goes up beginning with the beastial

Aunky little Stock Seport from Leidsdorff

bummers who sleep in the hay bales along the
city front have No deeper disgust for the law
than the Stock Report and Enterprise on this
occ .son. There is but little difference after
all between the political and social outcasts.
Hasty acting people believe in kicking them
from the steps, but according to our philan-
thropic notions of thinking they should be
dealt with kindly and considerably, with an
tye to reformatory changes; desperate resolve
possibly, but still worth the trying.
We shall not attempt to reform them, how
ever, until we have dubbed them into

The CATTLE K1Nas.-The Nebras-
ka horticultural Society comes out
boldly and brands the preliminary
Congressional report of the Com
mittee, which favors the withdrawal
of all lands west of the 100 meridian,
amounting to a hundred millions OF
acres, from entry by homestead and
pre-emption, and giving them by
long leases to the cattle kings. The
reason given is that those lands can
never be fit for cultivation, not even
with irrigation. The Board denies
the truth of this allegation, and say
that Nebraska's continued westward
extension of cultivated lands dis
proves this Congressional report.
Successful farming is carried on a
hundred miles west Of the Tooth de-
gree, and they say that the Con-
gressional report is entirely untrue.
The Congressional report had evi.
IDENTIFY been made in the interest OF
the cattle men, for whose benefit an
extent of country twice that OF the
State of New York, and two-thirds
that of California, is to be devoted
to the cattle men, to the exclusion
of settlers.

Little JOhnnie's Anecdotes.

Woodpeckers work as carpenters,
but they wud make more money if
they wud go in for cole minin' cos a
man wich had cole mine went
down to where his men was to work
and he said if they didn't work faster
he was goin' TO get some woodpeck-
ers, wich wud dig out more cole in
an hour than they did all day. Then
themen held meetin and all struck.
for they thut, he men did, that wood
peckers was some new-fangled ma
shene, and when the man said they
was birds, it was all joke, one ole
miner he spoke up and said hede
like to kno what birds was; but a
other ole fellow said he new what
birds was we'll enuff, but hede like
to be tole what jokes was.
Woodpeckers hammers tree full
OF holes and gifts werms out, but l
spect wen one is gitlin' EN- out
other is 9oin' to the holes ahed of
dim aud stickin' 'em in; and now for
tie story wich I said I wud tell you:
- Once u man wich lived in tbs
woods was cuttin' down trees, and
he had so many children that his
wife cudent mind 'em all to home, so
he TUX the baby with him and laid it
on stump vile he workt. The ba-
by was red hedded, and the wood
peckers there is red hedded too, and
one was settin' on a lin. Pretty
soon the baby begun to cri, and Wen
the woodpecker see its mouth open
and heard it crime it thot to itself
poor thing, where is your ole birds,
you must be otfie hungry, lie see if
can do anything for you; and wen
the man came up to the baby to say
gitchy, gitchy, gitchy, he saw the
wocdpecker drop long red werm
in the baby's mouth and fly back to
the lin. The the man pulled out
the werm and lookt at the wood
packer and said, my good fellow, if
you keep a boardin' house here, wot
is your terms? But the woodpecker
only shrugged his shoulders like a
Frenchman, as if it said you ugly

HIsTonY OF HATS. s.-How few Of
us ever trace the history of the hat |!
The felt hat is as old as Homer.
The Greeks made them in skull
caps, conical, truncated, narrow or
broad-brimmed. The Phrygian bon
net has M elevated Cap without q
brim, the apex turned over in front.
Itis known as the cap Of Liberty.
IN ancient figure OF Liberty in the
times of Anthonius Livy, A. d. 115,
holds the cap in the right hand.
The Persiaus wore soft hats; plumed
hats were the head dress of the Sy-
rian caps of Xerxes; the broad.brim
was worn by the Macedonian Kings.
Castor means O beaver. The Ar
monian captive wore plug hat.
The merchants Of the fourteenth
century wore Flanders beaver.
Charles VII, in 1469. wore felt hat,
lined with red and plumed. The
English men and women in 1910
wore close wooden or knitted caps;
two centuries ago hats were worn in
the house. Pepys, in his diary, in
1864, wrote, September, 1864. got
a severe cold because he took off his
hat at dinner" and again, in Janu'
sry, 1865, Le got another cold by
sitting too long with his head bare
av allow his wife's maid to comb lis
a,ir and wash his ears. And Lord
Clarendon, in his essay, speaking o
the decay of respect due the aged
says that in his younger days h
never kept his hat on before those
older than himself, except at din
ner." In the thirteenth century
Pope Innocent Nv. allowed the Car
dinals the use OF the scarlet clotl
! hat.

Drunk With Gen. Grant.
Dan hfce Exposes the Ex.Presitlent,s Lit.
tie Weakness.


Dan Rice, the old circus man. af-
Ter turning over new leaf, recalled
a few incidents from the old pages
IN bis address on temperance at ST.
Louis. He concluded his speech by
saying:
"The night before Zack Chandler's
death in Chicago, we were standing
at bar together drinking. He said:
:. This is my last drink, Dan. I have
fulfilled my mission That was bis
last drink, for he died that night.
l have had my last drink, and I trust
to God l have taken it in time.
My character has been good un-
til the last five years. Since then
every one in St. Louis knows nv
feelings. Trouble caused me to
drink and I bave been drunk five
years-.all these years I have got
drunk to drown sorrow. used to
go staggering along the streets like
this. Here Dan initiated drunken
man.. When I think of it if makes
me ashamed of myself. Then I
thought it funny. Laughter I
thought was great man. used
to say to myself: Gen. Grants a
great man; Gen. Grant gets drunk;
l and Gen. Grant have been drunk
together. l am great man, too.
He's great man som I (hicl.
lGrant's great General, in bis line,
and I'm great General in mine.
Laughter. I'm as big a man as
Grant if drunkenness is criterion I
used to think I would be q good
man. When was drunk 1 thought
l was great man, but when woke
up the next morning the hallucina-
ton would be gone. Then I would
lie there and swear I was going to
reform and never touch another
drop. After while I'd get up, and
somehow or other I would get in the
neighborhood of that same saloon.
My head ached and my stomach was
or FIRE, but then I had sworn off, I
was never going to touch another
drop. 1 looked at the place long
time. and then I grew cunning.
Laughter. went into the saloon.
1 felt very sick. I needed some
stomach bitters.. The bar-keeper
didn't have any, I pulled his head
down close to me and whispered.
Give me a cocktail, but don't tell
any one about it. Then I would
get drunk again. It was the same
thing over and over again, day after
day. I would swear off repeatedly,
and break my pledge as often; but
l have broken it for the last time.
In the course of my life I have spent
three fortunes. I would have them
now were it not for intemperance,
and this is a small part of the evil
which l have suffered from it. I
know what intemperance is, and
from this time on temperance will
never have a stronger advocate than
Dan Rice. ."-New Kork Star.
