ELECTION IN SALEM.
The Very Best Weather and a Medium
Vote Being Polled.

The Very Best Weather and a Medium
Vote Being Polled.
The weather today was fine al
though it was trifle warm. Every
thing passed off quietly, no particular
excitement noted during the day.
Both parties are working hard and
the full vote of each faction will no
doubt be cast before the polls close
The Union people were out bright
and early ana did faithful work
throughout the day In bringing voters
to the polls. The result Of their
labors will be seen in the material re-
duction of the usual Republican
majority in the ten Salem precincts
when the votes are counted.
The Republicans had the finest Of
livery rigs but the Union people car
ried many voters, as vehicles for
transporting voters, they used the
agriculturalists rigs and brought
many a working man to the polls 10
his shirt sleeves.
AT the polls but very little stir was
noticeable. In South Salem precinct
youthful voter was challenged, it
being claimed he had not yet reached
his majority but he swore his vote in,
In Salem No. two electors were re-
jected by reason Of being outside their
respective precincts, The vote Of
Frank Savage, brother OF Jonn Savage +,
Jr., was challenged by Earl Race
1t was ,clalmed that Mr., Savage
has no fixed residence here, The
Judges sustained Mr.. Race and Mr..
Savage did not swear in hit vote, He
(Sayage) has been In the state for the
past ten months and for about six
months has been located at Salem,
where he has been purchasing and
shipping hay and cattle, by reason of
which he thought himself entitled to
vote. Mr.. Savage also has large
mining interests In this state.
In Ward 2, Herman Gotz was chal'
lenged but swore in bis vote. A
second man was challenged but the
challenge was withdrawn when the
mans identity had been established,
This is the ward in which the hobo
element is usually voted but no at
tempt was made to swear in that Or
ganization today.
STEAMBOAT MEN.
Captain Bell and two deck hands Of
the steamer Ruth came up and voted,
but when Seth Wade of the Uuion
force called with carriage for the
balance of the crew Capt. Bell was
very short, and refused to let them
go. 1t is believed he and the two
voted the Republican ticket, and
knowing all the rest to be Union men
would not let them off.
Chief of Police A. G. Dilley, who is
suffering from rheumatism was
brought to the polling place in Ward
3, in buggy. His friends requested
that he be allowed to vote while in
the vehicle, but the judges refused to
grant the concession and he was taken
inside, where he cast his ballot.
AT WOODBURY..
WOODBURY., June Especial, A
lively contest is ION, and the Union
men are standing up for their ticket
like heroes. Lawyer Eby this morn
ing had an alteration with S. Tom
linson, and struck the latter, who
readily stopped him, and the little
pettifogger was soon put to rest
Woodburn precinct will be close.
PORTLAND, June Especial con-
trary to expectation the election is
passing off reasonably quiet. A
lighter vote than was expected is
being cast, and the Union people feel
confident of a greatly reduced Repub-
lican majority.

Road to Perdition.

LONDON, June. GA Madrid dis
patch speaking of the situation at
Santiago says:
"It is one more dlsenchantment
which proves that there is no remedy
for Spain's misfortunes. Cervera's
squadron at Santiago is of little ad-
vantage, either to itself or to what
It represents. 1t can neither hinder
the Yankees expedition, nor strength
en- the defense of Havana. Spain was
never bofore led through such a
strait road Of perdition."

If war should occur between England
and France 1t would be entirely naval
contest. France has very large army,
much larger than England's, but she
could not use 1t against England, or at
least not until the latter's navy had been
destroyed. England owns no territor y
contiguous to France. and transportation
by sea of French troops to any part of
England's domainiwould be impossible
while England's navy. was aaoat. As re-
CARDS their respective navies. England
has about hundred more ships than
Frances. In the matter of efficiency
England's advantage is much greater.
English sailors are much superior to
French sailors, and the English ships will
be manoeuvered more skilfully and their
armament turned to much better account
than the French. A naval war between
France and England would, we believe,
turn out about as disastrously for the
French navy, as Spain's encounter with
the United States did for her ships.

whioh.nations get into, than Of questions
at issue between them. Of course some
question starts the public mind to work
ing, but 1t is the fermentation that
causes the mischief. Fashoda is small
and worthless village in the Soudan. 1t
can be of very little value to the French,
either for what 1t is or what it is a key to.
The retention Of it would give France no
hold upon the Soudan of much strength.
Indeed had it not been for England's as
sistance M jor Marchand and his expedi-
tion would have starved to death already.
1t is hardly conceivable that govern
ment made up of sane men would precipi-
tate their country into war, costing
millions of money and thousands of lives,
for SO miserable o stake as the retention
Of Fashoda. If NJ. Brissou could with
draw Marchand from Fashoda without
anybody in France knowing anything
about it, in all probability he. would not
hesitate an instant to do it. But here Is
where the fermentation gets in its work.
The withdrawal Of Marohand will be
looked upon by the public as ''baok-
down." and to "backdown" is to strike q
blow at the country's honor, and nothing
creates SO much commotion in country
as an imputation upon the nations hon.
or. So the controversy which originally
was about a piece Of worthless territory,
after undergoing the process of fermenta.
tion in the public mind, becomes q con-
troversy over the nations honor. Tho
territory must be held on to, not because
1t is of any value, or because the country
really wants it. but because to abandon
it would be knuckling to somebody.
which would be stain upon the coun-
try's honor. 1t is right here that the
danger lies ofa conflict between Bingham
and France. We look at the mattor in
dispute and we say that it is preposterous
to suppose that two great nations can go.
to fighting over that; and we are right.
1t IS not that which they will 60 to war
over, If war ensues. The. war will be the
outgrowth of national pride, and tho
Fashoda incident will play the part sim
ply Of yeast which has set that pride to
working -

The PRESS the other day copied the
following paragraph from the Damaris-
Gotta Herald which attributed it to the
Maine Farmer:
At every sessionfof theElegislature there
is more or less talk about the lobby, Its
wiokedness and its corruption OF legisla-
tors. The evil has become SO great that
attempts have been made to control the
legislation. The real root of the trouble
however, is with the legislature itself. A
body composed of strictly honest. incor-
ruptible men would make the pickings of
the lobby few and far between. Conse-
quently, in electing representatives and
senators, men of unquestioned integrity
should be selected. That Is the root Of
the whole evil.
The Farmer denies that the paragraph
ever appeared in it's colum DIS, and is in
clind to thinkithat it belongs to the New
England Farm. OF course it's denial is
conclusive. The fact doubtless is that
the paper we took 1t from accidentally
miscredited it.

The New York Independent leaders
who are complaining Of Col. Roosevelt,
had better get together and agree upon
what the trouble is. Their organs have
been pitching into him because he did
not ignore national questions and push
State matters to the front, but now the
Hon. Carl Schurz is out in letter in
which he takes the ground that national
issues are paramount in the campaign.
f.that be SO there would seem to be no
good ground for complaining OF Col.
Roosevelt for discussing them. The
truth probably is that the Independent
leaders are bound not to be suited any
way.

THE FASHODA AFFAIR,

France. Yet we imagine that the govern
ment of neither of them expects war.
England undoubtedly expects that even.
tually France will recall Marchand from
Fashoda, and most likely France expects
to do SO. And yet the situation is
not without danger of eventuating in a
conflict. Many, If not most, wars are
rather the outcome of state of feeling
