WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER :. 1894
THE ELECTIONS.

The bulletin board at the Umatilla
House last night was surrounded by an
enthusiastic crowd of republicans, with
here and there democrat, whose curl
osity compelled him to attend the wake.
a few struggling dispatches about 5
O'Clock gave indication that Hill of New
York was badly beaten. AS the dis
patches came in later in the evening it
was evident that tidal wave had swept
over the country, and that democracy
had gone down in the worst defeat it
ever encountered. No full returns were
in at midnight, when the telegraph
office closed, but they were full enough
to satisfy everybody as to the result.
AS indicated last night, Morton will
carry New York by from 125, 900 to 160,-
600, and will only lose New York City
by $500 votes. Grant, the Tammany
candidate for mayor of New York, will
be defeated by $4,000, and Golf, the
anti-Tammany candidate for recorder,
will be elected by 10000. Illinois is
safely republican, but will perhaps elect
one. or two democratic congressman.
Washington will elect the republican
congressman by total majority of from
5000 to 10000. California is solidly
republican, with the possible exception
of congressman or two. West Vir-
ginia will return some republican con-
gresham, and the indications now are
that Wilson, the father of the tariff bill
will be defeated. In Montana all other
things have been lost sight of in the
fight for state capital, between Helena,
the present site, and Anaconda. As
far as heard from Anaconda is ahead,
having, according to its habit, swallowed
its rival. Louisiana, where the repub-
licans had some hopes on account of the
sugar legislation, is reported as being
solidly democratic.
The returns from the other states are
meager, but they are all of the same
tenor, telling of republican gains and
republican victories. 1t will be day
or two before the result on congressman
can be definitely known; but from
present appearance the republicans will
have the control of the next house. i
not the democratic majority will not be
large enough to let them work without
the constant attendance of every mem.

railroad commissioners; have returned
from ten days trip over the lines of
the Oregon Railway & Navigation Com
pany in this state. In letter to General
Manager Mcneil yesterday, they reported
that ''the line is at present in better
condition than it has been at any time
in the past two years." In view of the
fact that good portion of the road was
washed out by the Columb bia freshet last
summer, this report speaks exceedingly
we'll for the engineering department OF
the railroad company.-Oregonian.

There is no evidence that the railroad

Tammany is evidently utilizing its
control of the New York City election
machinery for all it is worth. If it is
true, as Superintendent Byrnes stated
late this afternoon, that not more than
two-thirds of the total vote can be
polled today, Mr.. Morton's prospect of
victory is dimmed to the extent of the
remaining one-third. With Tammany
judges and clerks inside the polling
booths and Tammany thugs in and out
of police uniform on outside duty, it
would not be reasonable to suppose that
the obstructive tactics are being en-
ployed to Mr.. Hills disadvantage.
The above from the Portland Tele-
gram of last night, is, to say the least,
unkind, and to give lTammany it's due,
it was evidently untrue. If, as our con-
temporary says, Tammany thugs were
running the election in New York City,
we would suggest to our national com.
mittee to turn the control of elections
over to Tammany.

An old Song.

When giants lived in ancient times,
Sing heigh, my boy, sing no!
In good old England, or foreign climes,
Sing heigh, my boy, sing no!
They carried things with high old hand,
Nor strong, nor weak, could before them stand,
And they killed whom they pleased throughout
the land,
Sing heigh, my boy, sing no!
But the giants didn't have things their
own way when ck-the-Giant-killer ar
rived on the scene. You remember the
story. Recollect, too, that every age has
its giant-killer. We have our giants in
the form of all sorts of dread diseases,
supposed to be incurable. Our Jack Is
in the form of DIR. Pierce, who has
proven the expression ''incurable dis
eases" to be a fallacy. Can you i'm
agine more potent weapons to assist a
woman in killing the giant-disease,
than DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
It's the only guaranteed remedy for all
functional disturbances, painful dis
orders, and chronic weakness of woman
hood. In female complaints of every
kind, if it fails to benefit or cure, you
have your money back. It's simply q
question of the company you prefer
the Giant or Jack!

She also related the incidents of his
early visits to her at the school and
said that he urged her to go else
where with him in order that they
might be able to consult over the
Rhodes matter more .unreservedly.
The second time he came to see her
he took her riding in a closed car
riage, saying the air affected his
throat. Breckenridge furnished the
money to defray her expenses at
Cincinnati and at the founding asy-
lum. Breckenridge had taken her
to the Elsmere in 1887, where she
passed under the name of Mrs.
Foster, Breckenridge representing
himself as Mr.. Foster. She left the
Elsmere in a few days because Col.
onel Sam Walker had recognized
Breckenridge and told people in the
house that his name was not Eos
ter.
Attorney Stoll asked if she still
had a certain note from Colonel
Breckenridge which was mentioned
casually and Miss Pollard replied:
81 presume it is destroyed. Col
onel Breckenridge always told me to
destroy all his letters and | obeyed
until recently"
Colonel Breckenridge had taken
witness with him on several occasions
when he went out of the city to adj
dress religious bodies. He had
given her no reason for the several
postponements for the dates fixed
for their marriage and she had never
asked for any until the scene in the
office Of Colonel Moore. "From the
night he took me to Sarah's in
1884," said she dramatically, "there
never was a suggestion of a discon-
tinuance of those miserable relations
until he left me with all sorts of
promises, pleadings and loving words

There was also a copy in Miss Pol
