CHICAGO, October 2--H. W. Scott,
editor Of the Portland Orsgoniam, now in
Olympia, Washington Territory, tele-
graphs as follows in response to request
for news of the situation: The Washing
ton constitution is adopted by eighteen to
twenty thousand majority. The whole
Republican State ticket is elected by eight
to ten thousand. Of one hundred and
ten members Of the Legislature in both
Houses, the Democrats have not elected
more than fifteen. The prohibition and
woman's suffrage clauses of the consti.
tuition are defeated. For State Capital
Olympia is largely ahead Of all it's COM
petitors, and may have majority over
all, though better judgment is that
another ballot will be necessary to decide
it. All the principal towns, Seattle, Ia
coma, Spokane Falls, Olympia. Port
Townsend and Vancouver, voted heavily
for the constitution and gave large Re-
publican maiorities.
ABOUT EIGHT THOUSAND MAJORITY.
SEATTLE, W. T., October 2.-Returns
received from nearly every county in the
State indicate the election of the Repub-
lican State ticket by 5000 majority. The
Democrats reduce the Republican major
ity in Seattle slightly. 1t is thought the
Legislature will have seventy-five Re-
publican majority on joint ballot. The
constitution is ratified by majority, and
prohibition and woman's suffrage are
defeated. North Yakima and Olympia
lead for the capital site. Neither will
have a majority, and another election
will be necessary.

A FAITH CURE CASE.
A Girl Who Gave up the Illusion
Just In Time.

JUST In I1mes
The Rev. Alexander Dowie, the faith
cure man, and some of his disciples re-
Gently came very near being responsible,
it is charged, for the blindness of young
girl. She is the daughter Of the pastor
of German church on Fourth street.
She and her brother were undergoing
treatment by prominent oculist of this
city for granular eyelids. In the girls
case this was combined with growing
opacity of the cornea.
Bya careful course of procedure com.
plete recovery was nearly attained for both
the patients when Mr.. Dowie came to the
city and preached the doctrine that per.
feet faith would serve to cure all disease.
The brother continued under the care of
the oculist, and Tor some time past has
had perfect use of bis eyes. The girl,
however, was caught by the religious
Juror of the faith movement, and decided
that she would get along without further
human assistance. She left the doctor
and took to regular attendance at prayer
meeting.
This course of treatment she main
tanned with perfect faith for number Of
months, until she was very nearly blind.
Her eyes steadily grew worse, until at
last she neared the point where recovery
would have been impossible. The brother
who had preferred science to prayer did
not cease his efforts to have her return 10
the oculist's care. AT laat she gave up
her faith and vent back to the oculist.
This occurred several weeks ago, and
since that time the oculist has been
struggling against what seemed at first a
hopeless case. The chances are now that
her eyesight will be restored. although
had che delayed short time longer il
would probably have been lost.

ST.. PAUL. Mimi, October 2. The
election of State officers and Congress-
men in South Dakota cut rather q small
figure, the vote being acknowledged to
be one-sided contest, for the location OF
the capital overshadowed all else.
Late this afternoon the first returns
came from the Black Hills region, which
was thought to hold the balance OF
power, and it was SO overwhelmingly in
favor Of Pierre that it seems but right
that the residents of that city should
started this morning.
PIERRE GETS IT.
Sioux FALLS, Oak, October 2.-Up to
II D, m. specials to the Daily Press show
the following condition of affairs in the
capital contest: Pierre, 1924; Huron,
11.776; Sioux Falls, 11,41O. The sue
cess of Pierre is generally conceded.
GENERAL RESULTS.
PIERRE, D, T., October 2.-South Da-
kota's first State election descended to
degrading scramble for the capital loca-
tion. There was no fight on anything
else. Mellette is elected Governor by
over 20. 900 majority. Picker and Gil
ford 20 to Congress. The Republican
msiority in the Legislature will be
at least sixty, ensuring the election o
two Republican United States Senators
The vote is enormous, probably $4,000

Just how many acres will be pledged to

is believed that organized effort will
accomplish the location of q sugar factory

nearly 1000 acres promised, which will
be planted to beets if the factory ia

Of JOhnstown as it looked after the subsistence
of the food. He says:
THE point of observation was on the hill
side midway between the WOODEN mills of
WOOdvale and JOhnstOwn proper, which |
reached after journey through the por-
lions of the city from which the waters,
receding fast are revealing scenes OF
unparalleled horror. From the point
on the hillside referred to, an excellent view
of the site of the town can be obtained. Here
it can be seen that from the line of the
Pennsylvania Railroad which winds along
the base of PrOspe., Hill, to point at which
ST Johns Catholic Church formerly stood,
and from the stone bridge to Conenaugh,
on the Conemaugh River, but twelve houses
by actual count remain, and they are
in such a condition to be prac-
ticaIly useless To any one familiar with the
geography of the iron city of Cambria
County, this viii convey vivid idea OF
swath averaging one-half mile in width and
three miles in length. In. all the length and
breadth of the most peaceful and costly por-
ton of JohnstOwn not a single remains, ex-
cept those adhering to the buildings men
toned
But do not think for an instant that this
comprehends in full the awfulness of the
scene. What has just been mentioned is a
waste of large territory swept as clean as IL
by gigantic broom In the other direction,
along the course of Stony Greek as far
as Alexander Kennedys, the President
of the town councils, some few
of the houses still remain, but they are up
side down, piled on top of each other, and in
many ways 50 torn asunder that not a single
one of them is available for any purpose
whatsoever. 1t is in this district that the
loss of life has been heartrending. Bodies are
being dug up in every direction
ION the main street from which the waters
have receded sufficiently to render access and
work possible, bodies are being exhumed.
They are as thick potatoes in a field,
| Those in charge seem to have the utmost
difficulty in securing the removal OF bodies
after they have been found.
AT the public schOOIhOuse the scene beg
CARS description. Boards have been laid from
desk to desk and as fast as the hands of large
body of men and women can put the remains
in recognizable, shape, they are laid out for
possible Identification, and removed as
although many have been taken away, and
is something hOrrifying to see one portion of
the huge school taken up by rows and
rows Of corpses each with clean white
sheet covering it, and on the other side of
the room prOmiscuOus heap OF bodies IN all
sorts of shapes and conditions, looking for
all the world like decaying tree trunks.
Among the number identified are two bearfti-
full young ladies named respectively Mrs
Richardson. who was teacher In the kinder
garten school, and Miss Lottie YOst, whose
sister [ afterward noticed at one of the cor
ners near by weeping as if her heart was
broken. Not a singh acquaintance did she
count in all of the greaU throng who passed
her by although many of them rendered sin
cere sympathy, which accentuated by
their own losses"

The Death Score.

The committee at JOhnstown in their last
bulletin placed the number Of lives lost at
eight thousand. In doing so they are figur-
ing the inhabitants of their own city and the
towns Immediately adjoining. But it must be
remembered that the tidal wave swept ten
miles through a pOpulOus district before it
even reached the locality over which this COM
mittee has supervision. 1t devastated tract
the size and shape Of Manhattan Island.
Here are a few facts that will show the
geographical outlines of the terrible dis
aster: The Hotel Hurlburt, of Johnstown,
a massive three-story building of 100 rooms,
has vanished. There were in it Seventy-five
guests at the time Of the flood Two only are
now known to be alive. The Merchants Hotel
is leveled. How many were inside it is not
known, but as yet one has been seen who
came from there or heard of an inmate esCap-
ing. 1.-THE COnemangh round house forty
one locomotives were swept down the stream,
and before they reached the stone bridge all
the iron and steel work had been torn from
their boilers 1t is almost impossible in this
great catastrophe to go more into details.
| stood on the stone bridge at o'clock and
looked into the seething mass of ruin below
me- At one place the blackened body of
babe was seen; in another, fourteen skulls
could be counted. Further along the bones
became thicker and thicker, until at last at
one place it seemed as if a concOurse of people
who had been at ball or entertainment, had
been carried in bunch and incinerated. At
this time the smoke was still rising to the
height of fifty feet, and it is expected that
when it dies down the charred bodies will be
seen dotting the entired mass Of burned
debris.
