New York Dec. S.-With the open
ing of his new Manhattan opera house
in West Thirty-fourth street this week
Oscar Hammerstein realized the am
bition Of his life. 1t was not that he
had built a magnificent new playhouse
for he had done that same thing
several times before right here in New
York-but he had succeeded in his
plan to give New Workers grand opera
at popular prices. That has been his
cherished ambition and the goal of his
efforts for twenty years.
The realization Of this ambition
comes as the climax of a remarkable
career. When young man Hamer-
stein came from Berlin to America in

tors Office.
TOTAL VOTE INDICATES $4,000
VOTERS STAYED At HOME
L. F. Dow Of Grand Forks, Socialist
Candidate, Polled About 1000 Votes
in State-McLean, Logan, Mcintosh
and Mercer Counties Gave Sarles
Abnormal Majorities.

Bismarck, N. D., Dec. 8.-The Tri-
bune says: The official vote of the
state has been returned to the secre-
tary of state in full and an analysis
of the figures of the election so far as
they affect the principal candidates for
Office is possible. The total vote of
the state for governor is between 64.-
900 and $4,000, falling of as COM
pared with the total vote two years
ago. notwithstanding that the total
number of voters in the state has con-
siderably increased in the last two
years.
The total vote on governor two
years ago was nearly $4,000, so that
the figures would indicate $4,000 to
$4,000 stay-a-homes. figuring that
there should have been a normal in
crease Of ten per cent in the total
vote. Governor-elect Burke's major
ity Is 5,115-less than was claimed by
the democrats a few days after the
election, but enough. The democratic
vote for congressman, would probably
as nearly as anything else indicate the
legitimate democratic strength In the
state. and taking the lesser vote Of
21,050 for Benton and comparing It
with Burke's vote, It would seem that
some 13,400 republicans must have
added their votes to this to make
Burke's vote Of 34,424. Taking Mar
shall's vote as the republican strength
at the election, It would indicate that
between quarter and third of the
republican voters cut the ticket on the
governorship and the judgeship. Fisk
received more votes than Burke, his
total being 1881. He has a majority
Of little more than 5000 over Knaur.
Considering the campaign made by
the lawyers committee, including a
large number of republicans, for Fisk,
as we'll as the regular democratic
campaign, It is not strange that he out
ran Burke, although it was generally
expected he would still farther out
strip Burke in the race. So far as
counties are concerned, the honors are
nearly even, the state breaking nearly
even on the counties carried by each
candidate. Grand Forks gave Burke
his largest majority, nearly 1000 votes,
and taking into account the persistent
attacks on the republican ticket in that
section It. is not strange that so much
fruit was borne by the continued cul-
tivation Of dissatisfaction and disaftec-
tion. Walsh and Ramsey counties a.
30 gave sweeping majorities for the
democratic candidate and the great
county Of Ward; counted as yepuk,l-
can by a large majority, gave %
majority for Burke. Thus do election
predictions and. forecasts melt away
into nothingness In q campaign so un-
usual as that in North Dakota this
year, after, discord and discomfort has
been planted and watered and culti-
vated by a large element of the domi-
nant party and its leaders.
Marshall's majority over Burr for
congress Is 1853 and Gronna's over
Benton is 1922. The majorities for
the other republican candidates range
