THE new system of voting has been
tried and the people generally are fav-
orable to it. 1t iS about as easy voting
under the new system as under the old
and the elections are more quiet. The
occupation of the heelers and the pullers
in il gone and now every man can walk
into the polls and cast his ballot for
whom he plrases. He has chance to
pick his candidates without outside in
reference, and without being dictated
TO by some one who may have a grip
upon him. All candidates stand alike
in the distribution of tickets and there
can toe no spurious ones to cheat the vo-
ter With some few amendments we
are of the opinion that the new ballot
system will be far preferable to the old
and the same opinion seems to pre-, all
with majority of the election officers
| with whom we have talked in the past
| two days.

THE defeat of Slater ". Allen for As
sembly and +. j. O'Connor, for District
Attorney is cause for regret To every
true Democrat They deserved better
at the hands of the Democrats VIII" AS
sisted in their defeat and the assistance
given in the election of Suneman and
Murphy, Is but cutting rods with whIc h
to switch themselves or their friends.
Every office filled by a Republican is
that mnch fuel furnished towards get
ting up steam for the Republicans at the
next election. Democrats, who last
year assisted to elect Judge Barker and
Sheriff Shumaker were this year anx-
Ious for the election of the whole Dem
ocratc ticket. Yet the prestige given
the Republicans by Judge Bark RS cleo
tiOn, the promises of favorS held out by
the professional politicians to those who
are expecting Licenses in the future did
more towards the defeat of Allen and
O'Connor than all the work that could
be done by those who last year kicked
over the traces and this year were anx-
lous, ready and willing to pull steady
along with the party, could overcome.

The election of Grover Cleveland and
Adlia Stevenson, as President and Vice
President, of these United States is n
matter for cOngratulation for every Dem

clearly made, clearly understood and
the people have spoken in tones that
cannot be mistaken. The next Con
gress will be in accord with President
Cleveland and its first duty will be Ia
wipe off the iniquitious Mckinley tariff
from the statute books.

Grover Cleveland Walks To the Polls.

New YORK, Nov. 9-Ex President
Cleveland left his home, II West Fifty
first street, at 1925 A. NJ, and walked to
the polling place accompanied 10y his but
Ter, William =. Sinclair, and George +.
Parker. 1t was 1910 when they reached
the polling place, $40 Sixth avenue
There were % men in line ahead of the
ex- president, they recognized him and
raising their hats bowed. When Mr.
Cleveland stepped up to the poll clerk and
gave his name a Republican watcher
attempted To challenge his vote, but he
was quickly hustled out of the way.
Mr.. Cleveland received a bunch of bal
lots marked No. 1S6 and went into the
fifth booth to select his tickets 1t took
him just six minutes To prepare his tick
cts. They we.e in proper order and as
soon as they were deposited IN their re-
spective boxes the eX-presldent went
home.
New YORK, Nov. 9.-New York City
complete gives Cleveland ia SS5; Har-
riSon, 9S, Clevelands majority,
1925. The Democrats have carried
New York state by 3S, l3l majority.
Contrary to the general expectation,
the number of votes cast in this city fell
considerably below the estimates
made by the experts. AS early as 8
O'Clock the Democratic managers ad-
mitted that the falling off amounted to
over per cent, compared with the vote
of fouryears ago. Various theories were
advanced as to the cause 1t is argued
that hundreds of citizens who visited the
polls were Obliged to stand in line waiting
their turn until their patience became
exhausted and they gave it up. The re-
suit is a considerable decrease in the
ballots cast for the candidates of each
party.

COLUMBUS, Nov, ,9.-The indications
at 10 O'Clock tonight are that Ohio has
gone Democratic for the first time in a
Presidential year, though it may require
the official count to determine the re-
suits

State committee, and W. A. Taylor can

THE RAILROADS.
Earnings and Expenses of the
Union Pacific.

Hts Oregon and Washingt ton Exten- j.
sIOns--RnmOrs of Ihe Purchase
of the Oregon Improvement Conn
panY's PrOPerty--Other Notes.
WASHINGTON, September 24.-The annual
report of the government directors of the
Union Pacific railway has been received by
the secretary of the interior. The prop
erty of the company is said to be in the
highest degree satisfactory. The business
has been conducted with the strictest econ
omy and the expenses, even on the in
creased volume of business. have been
largely reduced.
The board deprecates the practical aban-
donment of the roads in construction two
years ago in Oregon and Utah. The recent
decision of Justice Field affirming the
right of the Northern Pacific company to
decline to haul the cars of the Union Pa
cifc over its lines in Oregon and Washing
ton, if sustained on the final hearing will,
the board declares, make the completion
of the Puget Sound road a necessity. For
the Union Pacific proper the earnings and
expenses for six months ending on June
80, 1892. are as follows: Earnings, $780,
1888; expenses, $5,285, ,465; surplus, $3,724,-
867. This shows an increase in
earnings for the year of S272, ,272 and
decrease in expenses of $158,374, making
a net increase in the surplus for the year of
$430, ,647. For the entire system the earn
ings were $19,978 ,273 and the expenses $13,-
494, ,504. This is an increase in the earnings
for the year of $540,909, and decrease in
expenses of $159, ABB. Unofficial and in
~ or 40 Of IrrIr
and August indicate a continued gain in
the gross earnings and improvement of the
Oregon lines, and it is regarded as probable
that the net results for the present year will
show a substantial gain over the last.
AN o. R. AND N. REUNION.
SEATTLE, September PA rumor has
gained currency that the Northern Pacific
has acquired a controlling interest in the
Oregon improvement company. A gentle
man well Informed on railroad matters,
said:
"While it is true that the Northern Pa
ciic has been sailing close to the wind on
extensions and improvements for the past
year or tWO-lying low till the financial
Istorm blows over. there are sound reasons
why it should at this time make an un-
usally strong effort TO clinch its hold upon
the state Of Washington and gain better
foOthOld in Seattle. These reasons rest
mainly upon the speedy completion
of the Great Northern railway.
The Oregon Improvement company,
which is dividend paying, holds the key to
the transportation situation in Seattle, and
it is natural that the Northern Pacific,
which is sadly hampered by lack of termi-
nal facilities, should attempt to secure
control of it. The purchase Of the Oregon
Improvement Company's property is so
luton, and evidently the only solution.
1t would include many desirable acquire
ments in Seattle. The Seattle q Northern
railway and the terminals at Anacortes,
the Port Townsend Southern and termi.
nails at Port Townsend, Olympia, the line
of Alaska steamers, and, in short, all the
large properties Of the Oregon Improve
| ment company.

PITTsBURG, September 24.-Hugh O'Don-
nell was refused bail this morning by
Judge Porter and will be compelled to re-
main in Jail until his trial O'Donnell
fully expected to be released on bail and
to hold him without bail. In his opinion
Judge Porter held that the evidence was
too direct. Ali this testimony said he,
"is a liable to be contradicted, explained or
impeached at trial, but in this, as in all
preliminary hearings, we must accept the
testimony as true. 1t indicates that the
killing in question was done in the riot by
a body of men who had a common under
standing or agreement that they would re-
sist all who oppose them, even to the ex-
tent of taking life; that defendant was a
party to this combination and on the
ground during the riot and gave the rioters

Low Prices caused by the Bulls In
Che East.
SACRAMENTO, September 24.-Hop pick
ing is rapidly drawing TO close on the
Sacramento side of the river. Nearly all
the growers have their crops in bale. On
the Yolo side hops were late and the pick
ing will continue for ten days in some of
the yards. The quality is reported to be
all that was expected and the weight is
good, but the crop, with but few excep-
tions, is short of what it was last season.
The situation in the market is somewhat
interesting. There We're no sales whatever
made in this valley, and no talk of busi-
ness. Growers are of one opinion, which
is that the low price now quoted in the
east is entirely owing to the number of
bulls who are holding the market. Pro-
ducers have read for six months accounts
of bad weather and vermin in hop sections
with the prediction of a short crop. Moth
ing has been done to contradict these re-
ports until hop picking commenced, and
then the report Of full crop went abroad.
1t will take a long time to convert the
holders of hops to the buyers ideas. They
prefer to wait for the evolution of the mar
ket, believing that the supply will regulate
the prices

the Recent PugIIIsLIc Contest.
NEW ORLEANS, September 24.-The mu-
nicipal authorities have inaugurated war
upon all gambling houses in the city.
When the three big fights were in progress
in this city, a sensation was occasioned by
the report that three of the biggest houses
in the city had been Yictimized by two
young sharpers who had used a set of
loaded dice. over $4,000 was won by them
before the gambling house proprietors be-
came aware that they were being swindled.
The matter was placed in the hands of pri-
vate detectives and it is charged that the
pugilist, Tommy Warren, had been the
prime mover in the game. He was ar
rested, but was never put in jail, promis-
ing that he would leave town. Half of his
i'll gotten gains were returned to the pro-
prietors of the houses and he and his pals
retained the rest, after paying the detect
i've literally for his forbearance. The mat
ter became public, however, and the press
made it warm for the detective.
1t was on these direct charges that gam
bling was being carried on in violation of
the law that Judge Ferguson delivered a
special charge to the grand jury, calling
upon it to make inquiry into the allega-
tions. The grand jury reported and rec
commended that the police authorities
be instructed to strictly enforce the laws in
reference to gambling. Chief of Police
Caster accordingly issued special instruc-
tions to the force to discover the location
of every gambling place within the city
limits, to raid every one of them, to arrest
the proprietors and all who might be found
in the houses, and to seize the parapher-
malta.
The order created a sensation among the
gamblers. 1t is feared that attempts to
close up some of the big places will occa-
sion trouble. The report is current that
the pool rooms will be the next object of
attack.
