THE Republicans cast 334 votes
in Kootenai in 1896; 800, in 1898;
and 1864, in 1900. The combined
opposition to Republicanism in
1896 cast 1882 votes; in 1898, 1926;
in 1900, 1881. Considering only
the last two years, on the basis of
the unoifi cial returns the Repub-
leans gained 112 per cent aud the
opposition only SO per cent. Two
wears more on the same basis of
gains would give the county to the
Republicans by 225, not counting
the fact that Fusion has reached
the high tide mark and will now
recede. Fusion is only temper
ary make-shift at best, and never
succeeds for any considerable length
of time. 1t has invariably resulted
in failure.

On the face of the returns the
fusion par ties have AZ members of
the Legislature and the Republicans
% A contest in Latah will give
the Fusionists one more, making
the probable vote or joint ballot AZ
to q. 1t requires SO votes to elect
a senator, so that the Fusionists
have 8 more than a majority. 1t
looks as though Mr.. Dubois would
be elected on the first ballot, al
though there are rumors ofan anti
Dubois combination.

Thanksgiving Proclamation


BY the President of the United States
of Americd:
A PRocLAMATIoN-It has pleased AL
mighty God to bring our nation in safety
and honor through another year.
The works of religion and charity have
everywhere been manifest.
Our country through all its extent has
been blessed with abundant harvests.
Labor and the great industries of the
people have prospered beyond all prece-
dent.
Our commerce has spread over the
world.
Our power and influence in the cause
of freedom and enlightenment have ex-
tended over distant seas and lands.
The lives of our official representatives
any many of our people in China have
been marvelously preserved.
We have been generally exempt from
pestilence and other great calamities, and
even the tragic visitation which over
whelmed the city of Galveston made evil
dent the sentiments of sympathy and
Christian charity by virtue of which we
are one united people.
Now, therefore |, William Mckinley
President of the United States, do here
ny dppOiiiN anu oNl dpolb iui odcJJ thS
Goth of November next. TO be observed
by all the people of the United States, at
home or abroad, as day of thanksgiving
and praise to Him who holds the nations
i'll the hollow of His hand
I recommend that they gather in their
several places of worship and devoutly
give Him thanks for the prosperity
wherewith he has endowed us, for seed
time and harvest, for the valor, devotion
and humanity of our armies and navies
and for all His benefits to us as individu-
ais and as nation; and that they hum
bly, pray for the continuance of His di-
vine favor, for concord and amity with
other nations. and for righteousness and
peace in all our ways.
In witness whereof have hereunto sci
my hand and caused the seal of the Unit
ed States to be affixed

LITTLE was known in Boomers
Ferry about the size of the Fusion
majorities in Kootenai county un-
til the arrival of the county seat
papers. And while the Fusion
majorities are larger than expected,
they are not 50 large as two years
ago. The average Fusion majority
two years ago, on the county ticket,
was 3S5; this year 301. The vom-
bined Fusion and populist parties
had majority of 526 at the head
of the state ticket in 1898. But it
should be remembered that the
Fusion forces did not poll their
full strength in 1898. 1t was well
known that year that they had a
sure thing. We have heard Fusion
leaders claim that they had
latent strength that year of 500
votes, due to their conf ience in
being able to win without any spec
ial effort. The vote this year
would seem to bear out that claim.
This year there were over 5000 vot-
es cast AS againtt 1926 in 1898
This big gain in staI vote would
indicate that mariy voters did not
go to the polls two years ago. The
Republicans had an actual majority
far greater than 3S5, or 526. to beat
when they entered this campaign
how great of course can not be as
certained, hut great enough, with
out a doubt, that if the same gains
continue another two years Koot-
enai will swing into the Republi-
can column.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-11-16

WHILE the Fusionists have a
large majority in the Legislature.
vet it is fact, from the unofficial
returns at hand, that less than 300
votes for the Republican legislative
tickets, rightly placed, would have
given the legislature to the Repub-
Leans.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-11-16

Funny things happen in politics.
Two years ago Mr.. Mcclure. for
county treasurer, and Mr.. White
car surveyor, had the fewest votes
on the Fusion county ticket. This
year these same gentlemen have the
two highest. votes on their ticket.
