THE REPUBLICAN, VICTORY IN
OREGON.

Papers of every political complexion
agree that the Oregon election, which
the Republicans won by a margin of
5000 or more, was an event of consid-
cradle political significance. The cam
paign, 1t is said, was fought out on the
issues of expansion and the currency,
and as Oregon was considered doubt
full state, the Republican papers are
greatly elated over the result.
Perhaps the most interesting view of
the election, however, is the one taken
by the followers of Mr.. Bryan. The
New York Journal Dem. J, in the light
of the Oregon result, admits that if the
Democrats lose New York state next
fall, they will lose the election. "The
Oregon election has made clear" it
says, "that the Democracy can not
safely count on any electoral votes this
year from the Pacific coast" because
"the Pacific states are for expansion"
Five electoral votes that Mr.. Bryan re-
ceived in 1896, therefore, it says, are,
"to be looked for elsewhere, IN addi-
ton to the forty-eight Bryan lacked of
majority in 1906" These fifty-three
necessary votes, it figures, can be had
by carrying Kentucy and New York,
and, in addition, Connecticut, New
Jersey, Maryland, or West Virginia.
But let the Democrats lose New York
it declares, land, as the Oregon cleo
ton shows, they are gone"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.), too,
agrees that the far western states are
lost to Bryan, and that elf the Demo-
cratic candidate for president is elected
this year it will be by regaining the
great formerly Democratic states at the
east. AS long rs the Republi-
cans retain New York, New Jersey,
Connecticut, Maryland and Indiana
they will elect their presidential candi-
dates.n

CONGRESSIONAL DISTRJCTING

1t is announced that the census emu
meration in this state is practically
completed and it is expected that when
the results are tabulated it will be
shown that there has been sufficient
increase in population in Washington
to entitle the state to at least one addi-
tional member of congress, unless II
great change is made in the ratio
of representation. If no material
change i'm the ratio is made it is posi-
bic that the new apportionment may
give the state two additional members,
though that is hardly probable. When
the new ratio is established the various
states will be districted 10y the lcgisla.

no easy matter for the legislature to
establish the boundaries of districts SO
rs to prevent the cities of Seattle, Ia

tating all of the congressional nomina-
tons. The counties of western Washing

ulation of the state, and King and
Pierce counties, always hostile to each
other both politically and commercial

placed in separate congressional dis
tricts, and they will not lack for plausi-

indorse. The only possible chance OF

strong one, will be for the northwest

and insist upon recognition as sep

could do no harm anyway. If it were
to fail in its primary object it ought at
least to be successful in securing for the

button of state offices and patronage.

know our position. When the final day

suffering and patient, has kept close
