The Popular Vote,

The popular vote cast in all the
states last election has been printed.
For an off year it is probably the
largest vote ever cast in the Omitted
States, with the possible exception
Of 1894. AS it is, it reaches H.
097, ,S4S, not including few thou
sand scattering the blank votes, a
large total for an off yeur.
The next striking feature is the
large majority the Republicans
have over the Democrats. This
majority is 73S, 1S1. As the Re-
publicans had 59S,274 majority
over the Democrats in 1896 their
majority this year is 1870, 9O7 larger
than two years ago. This is a sur
prising and gratifying fact. 1t
would not have been at all dis
couraging had the Republicans
found themselves in the minority
this year on the popular vote,
This is the fate of most parties in
mid-Presidential years, and that
the Republican party did not meet
the usual fate this year is owing to
the strong position in which it has
been brought by the success of its
policy and the popularity of Presi
dent McKinley's administration.
This is the third national election
in succession in which the Repub-
lican party has had large plural
ity. In the Congressional election
of 1894 the popular disgust with
Cleveland and the disastrous effects
of his low tariff policy brought on
a reaction against the Democracy
which gave the Republicans great
popular plurality. This was re-
peated in 1896, and in the Con-
gressional elections of 1898 a third
large popular plurality appears.
This is an Endorsement of which
any party might feel proud.
Both the Republican and the
Democratic poll shows a falling off
from 1896. The Republican de-
crease is about 1,550,0OO, and the
decrease is about l, 100000.

then it will speedily become ap-
parent whether the anti's will dare
to delay the ratification of the
treaty, knowing that it will be i'm
possible for them to defeat it by
votes.
The appointment of BENZ. p.
Fifeld, to succeed the late Senator
Morrill,, of VT, was somewhat of a
surprise in Washington, although
those who know Senator Fifield
speak in the highest terms of him.
The general belief in Washington
is that Gov. Smith chose Mr..
Fifield to serve until the Legisla-
ture meets-in October, 19OO,-
because he did not care to decide
between the stronger political
claims of eX-Gov. Dillingham; and
Representative Grout.

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
mOnia always results from cold or
from an attack of la grippe. During
the epidemic of la grippe few years
ago when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed that the
attack was never followed by that dis
ease when Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy was used. 1t counteracts any ten
dency of a cold or la grippe to result
in that dangerous disease 1t is the
best remedy in the world for bad colds
and la grippe. Every bottle warranted

The year begins with the kind
of business demand that counts.
For months there has been rising
demand for materials, but now the
crowding demand for finished pro-
ducts begins to advance prices, in
the iron and steel industry about |
per cent, without quotable changes
in pig except at the East. Beams
have advOnced 81 per ton, angles
81, bars 81, and plates are strong,
with an Australian order for 81, =
600 tons refused at Chicago because
the works are already overcrowded.
Many thousand cars are covered by
orders at Pittsburg; 10000 tons
bars are taken for Agricultural
works at Chicago, 1O5, 900 tons
rails are taken by the Pennsylvania
Company, the Midland Railway
Company Of England has ordered
twenty locomotives from the Bald
win works, and many other home
and foreign orders are reported.
The demand has never been greater
at the beginning of the year than
it is now.-Dun's Review.

LaGrippe Successfully Treated:

II just have recovered from the
second attack of la grippe this year."
says Mr.. Jas. A. Jones, publisher of
the Leader, MeXia, Texas SIN the
latter case | used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and I think with considerable
success, only being in bed a little over
two days against ten days for the
former attack. The second attack
am satisfied would have been equally
rs bad as the first but tor the use of
this remedy, as | had to go to bed in
about six hours after being struck
with it, while in the first case was
able to attend to business about two
days before getting down." For

rains in tho PSlouse country will lessen
the grain yield to some extent, yet the
farmers of this section may be thankful

Bend country is heard complaints OF the

ONE week from next Tuesday the sea-
son opens for shooting prairie chickens
and grouse and from the reports brought
in from the country there will he plenty
of birds for good shooting almost any
where in the county. Over in Latah
county the prospect fer sport is equally
good and this year the birds across the
line have ali equal show with those that
make their home in Washington, as the
game laws of Idaho were changed by the
last legislature, so that the season which
formerly opened on Aug. LIST, is made to
conform to ours. Quite number of per-
sons may be tempted to slip out with
their guns before that time and some
game butchers will be sure to de<<so,
but all such should be reported and be
made to pay for their disregard OF tn g
game laws. Past experience not only in
this state, but in all localities where
prairie chickens, grouse, pheasants,
etc. are found, has shown that immuni-
ty from being hunted during the first
two weeks of this month is necessary to
save them from determination. The

AT ANY. TIME, any prairie chicken, gsouse,

game except fish and waterfowl and

revenue bureau has so far been noti-
fled of the discovery of over half a mil
lion cigars manufactured by Jacobs, at
Lancaster, Pa, and bearing counterfeit
stamps. Three hundred thousand of
these were found in Jacobs own fac
tory at Lancaster; 10000 in San Fran
cisco; $4,000 in Philadelphia; 100000
in Cincinnati; 10000 in Toledo, and
$500 in the irst New York district. 1t
is believed that this amount will be
largely increased as the search goes
on. Orders have been issued to rev.
enue agents to seize all cigars made at
Jacobs factory wherever found, and
later on they will be sold at auction,
the purchasers being required to re-
stamp them. The proceeds will be
turned into the treasury. What relief,
if any, will be extended to innocent
purchasers of the Jacobs cigars has
not yet been determined.
