up so we'll in the face of such heavy re-
ceipts, as the prices Of good to prime
Montana, Oregon and Utah wethers only
vary from &c per cwt to hardly 1Oc from
from the close Of last week. There are
some exceptions, where statesmen sold Is
to 2Oc under the prices OF last week, but
such things as these occur very frequent
iy here. 1t cannot be expected that peo-
pie will go out from their office that are
not in the sheep market sometimes for a
week or more, and know how to get the
market value.
We had some prime Montana lambs on
the market here recently, in fact the best
range lambs we ever saw here before
hey averaged 81 to 65 lbs and sold at
$4.75 per cwt. The spring lamb market
is the most that suffered, as the drop since
last week is 80 to 6Oc per cwt Good na-
tive straight fat sheep are wanted, at from
81 to $4.25 per cwt. If very prime will
fetch little more. The receipts for next
week we think will not be near so heavy.
if so, we will have good fair trade about
the middle OF the week.

over 1884 of 1900. If this additional vote
yields an increase in the Democratic ma
iority similar to that of four years ago
Cleveland's majority in the city win be
about $4,000.
But the Democratic prophets admit that
Cleveland needs great deal more than 49,
900 majority in New York city to pull him
through, if the Republican majority in the
country goes no higher even than the Demo-
Gratis concede. The Democrats must there
fore, get much larger per cent Of the new
voters In the metropolis than they have been
accustomed to in the past, or there must be
many changes to their side among the old
voters. But there have been no signs of such
changes. The signs have been the other
way. The states that have had elections it
is the Republicans who have gained and the
Democrats who have lost. The drift so far
as it has been indicated by the elections that
have already taken place, has been toward
the Republicans. What reason the Demo-
Gratis have then to expect the tremendous ac-
cession to their majority in New York city,
which they must have. and which appar-
emily they think they win have, it is difficult
to discover, unless they are relying ON vast

To-day, tomorrow and Monday will be
period OF intense excitement and suspense
among those who are interested in politics,
or, in other words, among all the men and
some of the women. This is as it should be.
The blood of every American man and
woman should 90 racing through the veins
at the momentous period when the soyer-
eighty Of the grand Republic makes its peri
odical pilgrimage to the home of its birth,
the heart of the people, to go forth again in
structed and directed. But,-and il you are
young man and poor man this advice will
be the more timely,-don't let your enthusi-
asm and your patriotism waste itself Ia bets
Don't bet money. You can't afford to lose
money that you have earned; you ought not
to afford to win money that you have not
earned. Don't bet your dignity. A young
man who expects some day TO be President,
or Congressman, or Governor. or Mayor, or
Selectman, or an old man who expects soon
to be an angel doesn't want to begin his career
by standing on his head, or by giving a proud
rival free excursion on wheelbarrow, or
by contracting to wear particular hat until
the Democratic party gets back again TO
power. or even by cutting up cora of wood
for nothing, walking mile or climbing
creased pole. Save your dignity. If you
are Republican you will have chance
enough to lose it gloriously in Wednesdays
great Harrison and Morton jubilee; if You
are Democrat reflect that dignity in adver
sity is one of the most glorious features of
manhood. But don't bet 1t is useless; it
is wasteful; 1t is unbusinesslike; it is i'm
moral.

The Portland daily press., 1888-11-03

Democratic effort is now concentrated TO a
very large extent in the Empire State. The
reason is obvious. The electoral vote of
that State is absolutely indispensable to
them. The Republicans can elect their can
didate and lose New York But the loss of
it will be fatal to Cleveland. When one un-
dertakes to analyze the predictions concern
ing the result he soon discovers that their
character comedies almost invariably with
the political prejudices of the prophet. If
ne be Democrat he figures out a Demo-
cratic majority. II a Republican the predic-
ZION is reversed. or course il is not to be
expected that Republican or Democratic
leader would confess he anticipated de-
feat, even If that were his real belief.
but in the case of the New York nredic-
tions apparently both sides really feai
the confidence which they profess. II we
Inquire into the ground of this confidence
we find that as far as the Democrats ara
concerned their expectation of carrying the
State is based entirely upon the belief that
they will make very large gains in New York
and Brooklyn, and the only basis of that
belief seems to be the large increase Of
registration in those two cities. -Four years
ago Cleveland's majority in New York city
was $4,000 in total vote of 223,0OO. Eight
years ago Hancock's majority was Al, 900 in
total vote of 100000. That is to say, an
increase in the total vote Of 1900 Yielded
an increase Of Democratic plurality of
2,OO0-or every thousand additional votes
yielded about 105 additional plurality. This
year the total registration is 2S6,0OO, and the
estimated total vote is 10000, an increase
