ELECTION DAY.
Democrats in Portland Gen
orally Vote for Weaver.
The Progress of both in Chi
cago- Fair Weather
Everywhere.


PORTLAND, Or, Nov. s.-The day
b perfect; polls opened at 8 a. M,
and will close at Q p. m. Up to 1C
o'clock, voting proceeding slowly.
Indications are that full vote will
be cast. The Democrats generally
are wheeling into line, and voting
for Populist electors, ignoring their
own ticket, in obedience to the
wishes of leaders. No disturbance
at the polls are yet reported.
At 8 o'clock the usual vote has
been cast. The day thus far passed
quietly. 1t is impossible to form
any estimate as to the result in this
country. Democrats and Populists
claim the state for Weaver. Repub-
licans are also very confident.

Mexican Indian Troubles.

CHIHUAHUA, Mexico, Nov.S -
The state and general government
are very much alarmed oyer the
Indian troubles in the western part
Of the state in the Sierra Madrt
mountains. According to reports
which have been received here dur.
ing the last few days, the Yaqui In.
dians have been greatly aroused by
the wholesale massacre of the neigh.
boring and friendly tribe at Toma-
chic by government troops. The
peaceable Yaquis in the valleys
of Sonora aud Chihuahua are leav-
ing their farms and ranches. and
with their wives and children are
gathering at an appointed rendez-
vous in the mountains north OF
Trinidad, where they have discover
ed another patron saint in the per-
son of beautiful Mexican girl
named Anita Roca, whose father is
a shepherd. Saint Anita charges
the Indian worshipers to make war
upon the Mexican lands in the
Yaqui valley, which the govern
ment has taken from them. There
are several hundred Indian braves
and 200ignorant Mexicans now pre-.
pairing to begin their depredations.
They are nearly all we'll armed, and
expect to begin their campaign as
soon as winter sets in. The govern
ment is active in its preparations to
quell the outbreak as soon as the
rebels are drawn out of their strong
hold. General Manuel Rancel, with
800 troops, will leave for the scene
of the new trouble as soon as the
Mexican roads are passable.

Days Five or SIX Hours Long.

As the evidence of the earth's crust
proves that our globe has lasted for
lncalculable ages, it becomes of in
terest to think how far the gradual
elongation Of the day may have at
tanned significant proportions since
very early times. It may be that
even in a thousand years the effect
Of the tides is not sufficient to alter
the length Of the day by SO much as
a single second But the effect may
be very appreciable or even large in
million years, or ten million years,
OF hundred million years. We have
the best reasons for knowing that il
intervals of time comparable with
those l have mentioned the change
in the length of the day may have
amounted not merely to seconds or
minutes, but even to hours.
Looking into the remote past, there
was time at which this globe spun
around in twenty three hours instead
Of twenty-four; at still earlier
period the rate must have been
twenty hours. and the further we
look back the more and more rapidly
does the earth appear to be spinning.
At last, as we strain our gaze to some
epoch SO excessively remote that it
appears to have been anterior to
those changes which geology recog-
nizes, we see that our globe was spin
ming round in period of six hours. or
five hours, or possibly even less.
Here, then, is lesson which the
tides have taught us. They have
shown that if the causes at present
in operation have subsisted without
interruption for a sufficiently long
period in the past, the day must have
gradually grown to its present length
from an initial condition in which the
earth seems to have spun around
four times as quickly as it does at
present. Good Words.

IN CHICAGO.
Democratic National Ticket Some
what Behind State Ticket.


CHICAGO, Nov. S.-The day open
ed bright and crisp. Voting done
rapidly, In spite Of the unusal condi-
tion imposed by the Australian sys-
tenn. BY II a. M, unusually heavy
vote polled. In.the German Luth-
eran WARDS, indications are that the
Democratic state ticket is receiving
about two-thirds of that vote, but
the Democratic national ticket is
running somewhat behind the state
ticket. 1t Is nearly an ideal election
day throughout the United States
as weather reports from all sections
of the country gathered here show.
According to official government
dispatches, almost everywhere an
unusually heavy vote is being
polled. New York state, however,
was cloudy with no prospect of
clearing, and threatening In some
parts slight snow, after last nights
rain. Northwest still somewhat
arctic. Indications are that although
the canvas has been. phenomenally
quiet. the Interest is none the less
EARNEST.
Later results seem TO Indicate that
the Germans are not going SO gener-
ally to Democratic state ticket, and
that Altgeld for governor, would do
well II he kept up with the national
ticket.

The Grand vizier's Little Joke.
The shah of Persia, probably for lit
tie diversion, some time since ordered
his grand vizier to make list of all the
blockheads that held a public Office in
Persia. The vizier did as commanded
and headed the list, which was long
one, with the name of the shah. That
worthy potentate was in an excellent
humor and did not become angry at the
yiziers audacity, but asked why his
highest minister considered him block
head.

TAMMANY AND CLEVELAND.
4 Row Brewing In the Great Democratic
Wigwam.

wigwam.
The democrats find it no longer pos
sible to conceal the fact that Tammany
is engineering an assault on Mr.. Cleye-
land. 1t is boldly proclaimed by the
Brooklyn Eagle, an ardent Cleveland
paper, that Edward Murphy's candi-
dacy for senator ais urged as form of
war; upon the president-elect, and
Tammany, which has put Murphy for
ward, is warned that in this exigency
the other faction of the democracy
must rally to Cleveland's support. That
the outlook for the party in the EN-
pire state is serious is evident to every
body who has given intelligent atten-
ton to the situation in that locality.
Tammany's aversion to Cleveland has
not decreased with the lapse of years.
1t supported him in the canvass be-
cause failure to do it would be suicidal
on its part, and because his victory,
gained through its aid. would give it a
chance to secure all the federal pat
ronage belonging to the state which
could be of any especial value. Real
;zing now that he is not disposed to
has determined to begin a war upon
;iim, and as preliminary move 1t is
resolved to secure the senator who is
20 60 into power at the beginning of
the administration. With the states
delegation in the senate in it's hands
the wigwam feels it can bring consid-
erabie pressure to bear on him in the
ms NJ nf Mt Fsril1 ha in
position to fight obnoxious selections,
and thus, directly or indirectly, to
force the selections which it shall die
tate.
But the peril of the president-elect
will not come from New York alone.
Although the political storm center is
in that state the area of disturbance
will extend over the greater part of the
country. Wherever there are impor-
tant offices to be distributed powerful
and resolute enemies to Cleveland will
manifest themselves. 1t is the preva-
lent opinion now among the leading
democrats that, in his attitude toward
the present officeholders, he will be
guided largely by the spirit OF the civil
service law, and the present incum-
bents in most cases will be permitted
to serve out their terms. This is not
what the democratic workers looked
for in the canvass, and they will
promptly and vigorously resent it now.
The scramble for offices is likely to be
far more extended and persistent than
any which the country has ever seen
thus far. 1t is already under way,
although more than three months must
yet expire before the new regime comes
into power. Carloads of of1ice-Seekers
from the west have borne down upon
him within the past week and have
compelled him to leave New York and
fly to the south for few days respite
from their opportunities. Tins the
outlook for Cleveland, and, indirectly,
for his party, is anything but latter
ing The war upon him in his own
state is about to be opened b. Tam
many, and the kindred elemens in the
rest of the states can be relied on to
begin hostilities just as soon as his adj
ministration starts into operation.-St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.
