DEs MONIES, November 5.-The State
Register says: At midnight aggregate re-
turns, covering one-sixth of the State,
show very heavy Democratic gains. The
Democrats have made heavy gains in the
river counties, and the Republicans have
failed to hold up in the Northwest. So
far as heard from, the Democratic State
headquarters claim that if the present
ratio of gains is continued they will carry
the State by 1000. Republican head
quarters insist that the strong Republi-
can counties have not yet reported. and
will cut down the Democratic gains and
that Hutchison viii be elected by a
small plurality.

BosToN, November 5.-Today's expert
ence seems to prove beyond doubt the
success of the Australian system of vot-
ing. In this city the voting places pre-.
sented a remarkably quiet appearance;
voting proceeded with dispatch, and the
voters enjoyed freedom from the inn
portunities of ballot distributors never
known before. There was some slight
friction caused by a conflict of opinion
with regard to the duties of precinct and
other officers, but it was insignificant and
gave but little trouble. With regard TO
the ballots themselves, there was little
or no complaint. From all over the State
reports indicate very quiet election and
light vote. Returns come in slowly.
There is probably not the slightest doubt
that the Republican candidate for Gov
ernor is elected by good majority.
BosToN, November 6.-1 a. m.-Re-
turns are coming in slowly. Bracket is
undoubtedly elected Governor, but even
the Republicans concede his plurality to
be small.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-11-06

REPORTS from the elections up to mid
night last night were not very definite,
but sufficiently so to indicate that the
battle has gone substantially with our
side. The Old Dominion has nobly vim
dicated it's Democratic record. New
Jersey is we'll in line with her staunch
Democratic proclivities. The Empire
State is safely ours, and Ohio is in great
doubt. Even silent Mr.. Quay opens his
mouth sufficiently wide to say this much.
Hamilton county, in which is the city Of
Cincinnati, is reported as going 5000 for
the Democratic candidate for Governor,
whereas two years ago gave Mr.. Foraker
a majority of 1000. Here is Democratic
gain of $4,000 in that one county. In
1888 Harrison's majority in the Buckeye
State was only $4,000. In this off year
the vote is light, and this loss of Is, ,00C
in Hamilton county puts the Republican
mercury very low in the tube. 1t looks
very much like Waterloo, and cannot
fall far short of defeat, even if Foraker
should pull through by the skin Of his
teeth. Even in Iowa there is big re-
volt in the ranks Of the g. o. p, and thai
State, heretofore so hidebound in its
politics, is declared in jeopardy.

In THE death OF Hon. J. d. Oullahan
the State has lost a good citizen, his
children an exemplary father, and the
Democratic party one of its most able
and distinguished leaders. Mr.. Oulahan
came to California early in the fifties,
and most of the time since has been a
resident of Stockton, where he was uni
versally esteemed for his excellent quail
tiles. We believe that the wife of the
deceased gentleman was a Miss Dent
when he married her, and a sister Of
Mrs. General Graut. At least there was
close relationship by marriage between
General Grant and Mr.. Oullahan.
1t will be remembered that on the
resignation of Mr.. January as State
Treasurer, during Governor Stoneman'f
administration, Mr.. Oullahan was .ap
pointed to that exalted position. He
proved himself a worthy custodian of the
public moneys, and turned over the
Office to his successor with clean bal.
ance sheet. There was no man in the
State more widely known or more highly
esteemed, or whose death will be more
severely regretted than genial, kindly,
honest D. J. Oullshan.

General Results.
New York, November 5.-No election
in New York for dozen years has ex-
cited less public interest than that held
to-day. The state issues awoke slight
interest except in 30 far as Wemple,
Democratic candidate for Comptroller,
was concerned, who ran nearly 1000 be-
hind. With the large registration, so
large for an off year, and with so good a
proportion of the registered vote cast, q
majority for the Democratic candidate for
Secretary of State of over 60, 900 indicates
that the Democrats rolled good solid
party vote, and the rebuke to Wemple
cannot be considered very pronounced.
The contest for State Senator was in

beaten by the Fusionist candidate, John
L. Ahearn. In the seventh, ninth and
eleventh districts the Tammany candi-
dates were elected; in the eighth Lispe-
nard Steward (Rep.) defeated the Tam
many nominee for the Assembly. The
Democrats elected twenty and the Re-
publicans four Assemblymen. The
County Democracy's nominee, Fitzger-
aid, defeated Gildersleeve, the Tammany
nominee for Judge of the General Ses-
sions. The new Board of Aldermen will
show about the same relative Tammany
strength as the Legislature.
The election at Brooklyn passed off
quietly. The Democrats carried two out of
three Senatorial districts, and ten OF
twelve Assembly districts, and elected
the Mayor, city and county ticket and
fifteen Aldermen.
The Tribune estimates a Republican
gain in the State outside of the city and
Brooklyn, ever the vote Of 'S7, of about

pretty evenly distributed over the State.
Smith, for Railroad Commissioner, and

nations the experiment was great sue
cess. In Germany today an acre OF land
adapted to the growth of the sugar beet
cannot be bought for less than 81 900,
and there is no land boom, or any arti-
fetal boom of any kind, in the country
of the Teuton. There are five hundred
thousand acres of land in Los Angeles
county which are as perfectly adapted to
the growth of the sugar beet as
any soil on earth. Five or six
years ago Mr.. Remi Nadeau
started in to raise the sugar beet on his
raLch south Of the city, and he also ex-
perimented on other lands in the county.
On seven hundred acres of land on the
Rodeo de Las Aguas ranch he raised an
average of twenty-six tons to the acre,
which showed an average of seventeen
per cent. of saccharine matter. At four
teen per cent. of sacchsrine matter an
acre of this kind of land will yield s104,
or ten acres will assure the frugal
farmer return OF 81 ,040. Mr.. Spreckels,
at the time negotiations were f rst
started with him, agreed to pay 81 ton
for all beets with fourteen per cent. Of
saccharine matter, and to add fifty cents
a ton additional for each percentage Of
sugar above fourteen per cent. just now
Mr.. Spreckels is probably spread over
too much territory to admit Of his
building sugar factories in Los Angeles.
But Mr.. Richard Gird and his French
business associates are here to take Mr..
Spreckels's place. Elsewhere we publish
list of farmers in the Ballona and Ca
huenga districts who are prepared to
start the ball rolling. They are ready to
double the acreage set opposite their
names. Here is good example. II
should be taken up all over the county.
Cooperative sugar beet factories ought
to spring up all over Los Angeles
and Orange counties. The United
States raises but a fraction of the sugar
consumed by its people. There is nc
reason why it should not raise it all.
The beets raised by Nadeau were dried
and sliced, and used as food for cattle
they paid the expenses of the planting
of Nadesu's three thousand acre vine
yard. By all means let our farmers
band together and raise sugar, enriching
themselves thereby as do the French
and German farmers.
Since writing the foregoing, we are
enabled to state on authority that Mr..
Grid has completed his deal with the
Frenchmen and with the American Sugar
Refinery, and there are to be two sugar
factories and grand central sugar refinery
in this neighborhood, the latter edifice to
be on the Chino ranch. Details of this
gratifying news will be found in our local
! columns.

Let Us Have Sugar.

The HERALD claims the liberty OF talk
ing good deal about the sugar beet,
from time to time. Away back in the
Napoleonic wars, when the cruisers Of
England prevented che French from get
ting the sugar of their West Indian pos
sessions, Bonaparte conceived the happy
idea of making sugar from beets. Later,
when his Berlin DEGREES had practically
closed all the ports of Europe to American
sugar from any source, the Germans also
entered into the business. In both

stand by Home Industry.

While the growth OF Les Angeles will
not depend on any single source, and
commerce, horticulture and agriculture,
will enter almost equally into the sources
of our prosperity, manufactures will slso
figure largely in the grand array OF our
wealth. While these latter have not
attained anything like the splendid
growth to which they are destined in the
near future they already show up in q
very promising shape. 1t is not the
large foundries, with thousands of under
paid workmen, who are ground down
almost to the point Of starvation, which
make the best showings as constituents
of urban prosperity. With the incessant
strikes and lockouts which are inevitable
incidents of colossal industries, it
is sometimes question as to
whether they are an unmixed blessing.
There can be no question, how
ever, but that the modeet manufacturing
establishments-the innumerable indus
tries which enter into the daily economy
of civilized life-are great sources of
prosperity and progress. Los Angeles is
supplied with these in much larger
measure and in much greater variety
than is generally understood. In many
lines we have made capital beginning,
which will grow to great things. But
there is one proposition that ought
to be matter Of pride and conscience
with Angelo fios, and that is to patronize
home industry. Keep the money at
home that 90 often goes out to pay for
staples not as good as those manufac-
tured right here. The manufactures of
San Francisco were built up very slowly
and under great discouragements. We ara
starting ont under much more favorable
auspices than did the pioneer manu-
facturers Of the Golden Gate. All
that is needed is that our people should
recognize the duty of standing by their
fellow-citizens who have inaugurated the
industrial era which will not only shortly
enable us to supply the needs of our own
people but those of the millions who are
soon to inhabit the country tributary to
Los Angeles. Buy the fabrications OF your
own townsman, even if not quite as good
as those made in the long time CEN
ters of manufactured specialties; but, by
all means, buy them when they are
better, which is frequently the case.
From manufactures of iron, electrical
appliances, wagons, carriages, tiles,
cement and vitrifed pipe to toothsome
crackers, we have already made great
progress here-a progress that can be
indefinitely extended by generous pat
ronage. Give your Industrious fellow.
citizen a show, and thus enable him to
stand before kings, in the language of
scripture, or before the American sover-
eigDs, which amounts to the same thing.

Kansas.

KANSAS Cry, November 5.-The elec-
tions in Kansas today were for county
officers only. In most cases the issues
were of purely local charac or. In
some of the counties, however, the cam
paign was fought on the issue of the re-
submission of the prohibitory amend
ment to vote of the people, and in
those counties the Democrats were gen.
orally successful the resubmission issue
being favored by large number of the
anti Prohibition Republicans. Shawnee
county, in which is located Topeka, the
State capital, elected the Republican
ticket. Returns are coming in very
slowly.

Tne Democracy Awakening.

The steps taken to thoroughly organ
ize the Democratic party in this county
are timely, and if followed up with the
appointment of active and representa-
tive men in each precinct will place the
party or footing to make an energetic
and winning fight at the next election.
There are changes constantly going on in
the body of the people from which the
Democratic party is profting. We be-
lieve that if an election for county and
city officers we're to take place this year
the Democratic party would sweep the
field, SO disguised have the people be-
come with the mismanagement of the
public affairs in both governments.
In this city, Republican rule has
been open to the most adverse
criticism of men OF all parties,
The way in which the Council has be-
devilled the sewer question and rioted in
public extravaganza has alarmed every
citizen who owns lot or has any inter
est in the welfare of Los Angeles. The
Board of Education has been guilty of a
breach of faith in the matter of the High
School site which will not soon be for
gotten. The county government has
been run in most lavish and wasteful
manner, and the disappearance of q
colossal road fund without any apparent
betterment in the roads, has aroused
universal indignation; whilst the actual
stealings traced to deputies in the County
Clerks office have opened the eyes of the
people to q species of maladministration
which no community can tolerate.
It is therefore sessonable that the
Democratic party should prepare to or.
ganize its forces to rescue the city and
county governments from corruption and
misrule. Let the best men in the party
come forward and assist in the good
work of organization, to the end that the
people may be enabled to fill the offices
in both local governments with citizens
of integrity and capacity. A perfect or.
ganization will go far to turn the great
Republican majority of the county into a
minority, and perhaps enable us to mase
a formidable inroad into the power OF
that party to elect their own candidates
to the State Offices. The people are ripe
for change in the administration of
public affairs, and the occasion should
be availed of by us TO secure a signal
victory.
Let the good work go on.

are at $50 p. m. that the Democrats
have scored eweeping victory. 1t is
conceded that they have captured the

with the chances in favor of the
latter.
At II p. m. the Recordership has not
yet been settled and full returns probably
will be necessary to determine it. The
best estimates however, gave Crawford
the election by 600 plurality. The bar
candidates for Judgeships, one Demo-
