OREGON PREDICTIONS.
Both Sides as Heard From Satur-
day Night.

PORTLAND, Nov. 5.--The cam
paign in Oregon has developed at
the last moment from a dull, listless
contest into one of unusual interest
and enthusiasm. The attempted
fusion with che Peoples party by
the Democrats has spurred Repub-
licans ON to bring out the full party
strength and, Notwithstanding the
fact that the Democrats have with
drawn Miller and endorsed Pierce,
the Popuist elector, the Republicans
are confident of electing all four
electors. Democrats do not hope to
carry the state but say they will GER
tainly elect Pierce. Chairman Boiser
of the Republican state committee,
said this evening: 1--WE will have
at least 10000 plurality and / would
not be surprised to see $4,000. We
are certain TO elect all of our electors.
Our advices from all over the state
are to the effect that the Peoples
party men are returning to Republi-
can ranks and many Democrats will
stay away fron the polls and others
will vote for the three straight Demo-
cratic electors. There are many
conscientious Democrats and they
viii refuse to sacrifice principles,
even If they were reasonably sure
they would aid Cleveland by voting
for the third party" Chairman
Murphy today said; "The Demo.
cratic party now stands urging Its
members to vote for their nominees
who have refused to obey the par
ty's instructions 10 withdraw, and II
the vote Of Tuesday Is to be taken as
u criterion OF my generalship there
Is nothing for me to do but say
have made a most signal failure In
the conducting Of this campaign"

14OO Marshals Sworn In.

NEW YORK, Nov. THE ma
tional Republican committee had
practically concluded its work Sat.
urday night, and many of those en-
gagged here have gone home to vote.
United States Commissioners Duel
was busy this morning swearing in
federal deputies to serve in this city.
1t is estimated that fully 1400 will
be sworn in by this evening. Uni
ted States Marshal Jacobus says he
does not know how many men he
will have, but that there will be at
least one for each precinct, of which
there are 1874, besides some to look
after men Illegally registered. The
new deputies in the government
employ are presumably all Repub-
licans. Jacobus says they will go
armed In order to be able to enforce
their authority. II is rumored that
the federal grand jury is consider
ing John l. Davenport's charges,
and Is about to act on the cases of
three city officers said to be accused
of abetting false registration and
colonization.

whittier's Red Necktie.

The poet Whittier, strange as such
a defect appears in one who made
such effective use of color in his
poetry, was color blind. He was
able to describe with as much ac-
curacy as beauty the tints of the
evening sky at sunset, the hues of
cloud and forest upon the side of a
mountain, or the changing purple,
blue and violet of the twilight sea.
His popularity of vision betrayed
him into an error, although an error
not discoverable by his readers.
The Quaker poet shared in all re-
spects the quiet tastes Of the sect
into which he was born, and shared
them no less by temperament than by
breeding, being naturally one of the
simplest, sedatest most retiring and
least snowy of men.
His friends were therefore natu
rally astonished when he made his
appearance one day with his usually
somber garb enlivened by flowing
necktie of a flaming scarlet hue.
They wondered for a time in silence
then very old friend ventured to
inquire:
"Thees never worn necktie like
that before, Greenleaf; does thee
think it is becolning2"
A little surprised, Mr.. Whittier ap-
pealed to the company for their yer
dict, when, the color of the offending
decoration being mentioned, he ex.
pressed both amusement and dis
may and volunteered a promise to
discard it at once and forever. He
had purchased it, he assured them,
under the impression that it was of
a dull and decorous greenl
AS in many other cases of persons
similarly afflicted, Mr.. Whittier's
color blindness was only partial, and
was limited to an inability to distin
guish green from its complimentary
color, red Youths Companion.

ALL GOING TO WEAVER
List Of Counties Claimed for
Fusion.
NORTH DAKOTA LOOKS LIKE WEAVER.
Oregon Claimed for Fusion by
Five Thousand.
Fugionist Claims,

PORTLAND, Nov. 1.-THE Demo-
cratic state central committee an
nounces today that Democrats in
the following counties will cast their
votes for Weaver electors: Wallowa,
Columbia, Washington, Clsckamas,
Coos, Curry, Josephine, Lake, Klam-
ath, Harney, Benton, Yamhill, Polk,
Marion and Baker. Others are ex-
pected to follow. The air around
the Democratic headquarters today
is one of confidence, owing to the
fact that above named counties have
declared for Weaver. Chairman
Murphy says: "Weaver will carry
the state by five thousand"
The Peoples party managers are
confident. They estimate the Re-
publican vote in the state at $4,000,
Democratic $1,000, Peoples party
$4,000. They claim that if one-third
of the party electors receive ten
thousand Democratic votes, they
will be elected. For Pierce, they
claim majority of fifteen Thousand
at least. Republicans are not in the
least perturbed at the reported ac-
ton of the Democrats in outside
counties. as to voting for third
party electors. Secretary McCor-
mack, of thel central committee, ex-
presses himself confident of the re-
suit, and there is no question
as to Harrison's ability to carry the
state, even if the entire Democratic
vote was united with the Peoples
party vote.
SPECIAL TRAINS CHARTERED.
There was mounting hot haste by
democratic leaders early this morn
ing, when it was definitely agreed
upon by them to ignore their party
ticket and support that of the third
party. Word was wired to all coun-
ty and State committeeman of the
proposed action.
Two special trains were chartered
and started through the state, car
rying the order; one on the South
ern Pacific goes to Ashland, the
messengers aboard are DIR. Murphy,
chairman of the state central COM
mittee, and j. l.. Sperry. The one
over the Union Pacific goes to La
Grande, and conveys John Barrett
and 7. j. Oday. These messengers
have wired the central committee
from various points, to the effect
that the action is meeting the ap
proval of the le aiding Democrats, who
recognize it as the only way of keep
ing the state from Harrison to vote
for Weaver. Judge G. B. Bellinger,
of the county campaign committee,
issued an address this afternoon,
calling upon Democrats to support
Weaver.

Fifth Avenue and prices rule fairly
even, although on New York state
odds are given by the Cleveland
men. Cleveland, win spend the
night at the Victoria Hotel, and has
arranged to vote at his precinct ON
Fifth Avenue, about noon tomorrow.
He has requested that no demon
stration be made at the time. The
ex-president votes in the same dis.
trict with Dr. Depew and the Van
derbiIts.
At the newspaper offices prepara-
tions are being made today FOR ex-
hibiting the returns tomorrow night.
The World will have tremendous
calcium effect, and the lights on its
dome will tell by color the result IF
the election. As this can be seen for
fifty miles about New York, it will
be watched with great interest.
The Tribune is also erecting its inn
mense platforms in front of the
Greeley statue, and will have the
usual crowd Of thirty or forty thou
sand sight-seers TO cheer results.
The Herald and all the other papers
are preparing in the same manner
to give the earliest returns to the
surging masses. The evening edi-
tions of New York papers announce
that they will be out with extras at
HOS o'clock, and at midnight the
belief seems general that the result
will be definitely known by that
time. The streets of New York are
crowded today with fakirs, selling
books and pamphlets containing
election results in all the cities and
states in the Union in previous
years. At late hour today, both
parties announce the battle practi-
cally won; but the ballots have yet
to be cast.

Kansas, South Dakota, and South
Carolina, the legislatures chosen
next Tuesday, will also each elect
senator to succeed one whose term
expires March A, 1895, the retiring
senators in Kansas and South Da-
kota being Republicans and In South
Carolina Democrats.
AT NATIONAL HEADQUARTERS.
New York, Nov. 7.--As TO the
result in this state and city, the DEM
ocrats say Harrison cannot come
down to the city line from the state
with more than 65,O0O majority;
that Cleveland's majority in the city
cannot be less than 10000 leaving a
Republican majority of only 5000 to
he overcome by the votes of Kings,
Queens and Richmond counties,
which include Brooklyn and other
island towns about the bay. A gen.
eral estimate of the city vote, how
ever, gives Cleveland 10000 major
ity.
The Republican committee gives
out no figures. but the following rep
resent their expectations: Califor-
MIA, 0; Colorado. A; Connecticut, g.:
Delaware, 8; Idaho, 8; Illinois, "a;
Indiana, Is; Iowa, 13; Kansas, 10;
Maine, s; Massachusetts,, Is; Michi-

Ohio, %, Oregon, a; Pennsylvania,
80; Rhode Island, A; South Dakota,
A; Vermont, A; Washington, a; West
Virginia, 6; Wisconsin, IL; Wyom-
ing, 8. Total, 277. Necessary to
elect, 223. The Republican state
committee claim that Harrison will
come down to the city with 10000
plurality; four years ago it was 3d.
900. They claim there will be
falling off of $1,000 to 10000 in the
Democratic vote In this city this
year compared with four years ago,
so they claim the state for Harrison
and are firm in the faith ''as goes
New York, so goes the Union"
BOTH SIDES CLAIM EVERYTHING.
NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-Exagger-
ated claims continue to be put forth
by both Republicans and Democrats,
with the result that unprejudiced
persons believe neither of them.

that some Democrats
are inclined to be doubtful of it,
On the other hand, the chairman of
The Wisconsin Democratic commit
lee asserts positively that Cleveland
will carry that state by 10000 to 12,-
300 plurality. Here in New York
the controversy over the United
States deputy marshals continues,
and there is talk of wholesale ar
rests. 1t is probable, however, that
the matter will be settled without
violence. S. p. Sheerin, who is in
indianapolis, telegraphs that he be-
lieves Indiana is sure for Cleveland.

Follow ing correspondence is made

Hon. w. s. Walker, United

October 30 is just to hand. In re-
ply / will say that have appointed
| deputy sherlffs at each voting place
in the county, with positive written
instructions to arrest all violators OF
the election laws, and keep the
peace and order, and / am quite
sure they will do their duty. AS to
any threats being made 1 have not
heard of them, and if they were
made it was by some bully
who has not the courage to execute
them. In case it should be at
tempted, 1 will have men enough to
resist any party who tries it. The
only bluffing or intimidation / have
heard of is by some of your special
deputies at Notasulga. 1 under
stand they made their brags they
would take charge of the election
there; that they would go inside the
room and inside the ropes If they
wanted to, and were going to. Now
If they attempt anything of the
kind 1 will certainly have them ar
rested If / can deputize men enough
to do it. So far as / can L am de-
termined there shall be no disturb
ance or fuss on the day of election,
and don't apprehend any, only at
Notasulga and really not there, for
I think 1t is all talk and bluff. /
don't know that they have said any
thing there of my own knowledge.
Respectfully,
w. w. THoMPToN, Sheriff.
p. ST. intend to do my full
duty as sheriff as nearly as l know
how, and don't intend to be bull
dozed or bluffed off by any one.
There may be men enough to kill
me, but there are not enough to
scare or bulldoze me in this county
or in any other, and you had better
instruct your deputies of their duty.
If you have the right to send any
there, or rather, appoint them, ]
don't object to you sending as many
as you want to, so far as 1 am con-
cerned, but they must not try to in
timidate my deputies by threats,
etc. Respectfully,
w. w. THOMPSON, Sheriff.
Marshal Walker in reply says
that he will insist upon the enforce
ment of his original instructions to
deputies.

THE DOUBTFUL STATES.

VI the 10 uOuDtlul Stutcs, Nc'huu,
with three electoral votes, Is pract-
ica'ly conceded to the Peoples party,
thus leaving only Ia states actively
In contention. OF these, the Demo-
Gratis make the loudest claims of
Alabama, New Jersey and West
Virginia, swelling their total cleo
toral vote to ia. The Republicans
express the greatest confidence In
carrying Colorado, South Dakota,
Idaho and Nebraska, which would
swell their total to 1911. Admitting
the claims of the two old parties and
conceding Nevada to Weaver, very
doubtful states remains ,as New York
Indiana, Connecticut, Kansas, North
Dakota, Wyoming and Montana.
These states have total of 20 votes,
and OF these the Democrats must
gain 40 In order to win, and the Re-
publlcans must secure 32. While
on their figures the Republicans
would appear to have the advan-
tage, this presumption is not borne
out when 1t is remembered that
carrying Kansas. North Dakota and
Wyoming by the Peoples party
would inure 10 the Democratic ad-
vantage by tending to render u
choice In the eclectoral college inn
possible, and thus throwing the
election into the Democratic house
Of representatives, where Cleveland
would surely triumph.
THE LEGISLATURES.
The states which will elect legis-
latures to choose senators to replace

4th Of March, 1893, are California,
Connecticut, Maine. Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska,

Among the most wonderful dis.

OF various vegetable products pos
sessing digestive properties of an ac.

erty of the papaw has long been

it has been ascertained that the Juice
of the pineapple contains very i'm
portant digestive property, which is
capable of digesting albumen and al
he'd substances, not only in acid, but
in nutritive alkali media, which
gives to it the combined properties
of the gastric juice and the pancre-
attic juice. This excellent fruit NAV
be found a valuable aid to digestion.
The coarse pulp is wholly indigesti-

4 SUNSET REVIEW !!
Political Aspect Before EIec-
tion Day.
The LIST Oh DOUBTFUL STATES.
New York Strong EXCLAIMED for
Harrison.

New YORK, Nov. 6.-The presi-
Dental election of 1892 is unique in
being the first since the war in
which so many doubtful states are
admittedly at issue between the
great political parties. 1t is also
unique ia being the first in which 1t
was conceded by all parties that
the electoral vote of the nation will
be divided among three great politi-
cal organizations. One of the three
candidates must receive majority
of ali votes cast, or the election will
be referred to the national house Of
Representatives. The advent Of the
Peoples party into national politics
has constituted the great element of
doubt In the present contest. The
solid South of the Democracy and
the solid West of the Republican
ism are both menaced by encroach-
ments of the Populists, and in every
estimate an Interrogation point
must mark certain states that one OF
the other of the old parties were
won't to claim in the past as politi.
cal heritage. In the list may be
named Alabama, Colorado, Kansas,
Nevada, South Dakota, Nebraska.
Wyoming and Idaho. To the list
are added the old-time doubtful
states of New York, New Jersey,
Indiana, Connecticut, Montana and
West Virginia. While the three
parties will probably not unanl-
mously agree that all these states
are TO be placed in the doubtful
columns, the fact remainsthat Tues
day night the American public will
turn anxiously to these states, each
and all, for the solution Of the presi-
DENTAL contest.
The electoral college this year will
consist of 444 members. The states
admittedly Republican have 172
electors, the states admitted to be
Democratic have l47.
THE DOUBTFUL STATES.
The fifteen doubtful states will
cast the following electoral vote:
Alabama a-1liNebraska -- 81
