The last few hours Of the great
contest was time OF suspense for
many. Promptly at 10 o'clock the
contest closed: no more votes were
received after that hour Hardly had
the hour of 10 arrived before tele-
phone messages began to come in
asking il the vote had been counted
and who the winner was. 1t seemed
as If the whole town was interested in
the outcome, and perhaps there has
been more than one city election that
did not create as much genuine in-
terest as did the Astorian contest,
The moment that the vote was de-
clared closed the judges commenced
their work Of counting, and II was
no light task to 60 over the thou
sands Of votes; yet because the vote
had been kept tabulated and in per-
feet oder it was possible to canvass
il in reasonably short time, and it
was calculated that the results would
be known in an hour after the
counting began The judges were
the following well known gentlemen:
Mayor Herman Wise, Dir. J. M.
Holt, and II. T Minchew.
A curious crowd watched the
judges as they canvassed the vote,
and every remark that apparently in
dicated which way It was going at
tracfsd interest
All day yesterday the outcome Of
the Astorian contest was the princi-
pal topic Of conversation on the
streets and in the homes Of the city,
who do YOU think will win the
autoss and DO you think that she
will get the piano7p were questions

OF course everybody couldn't win.
There was bound to be disappoint-
ment for some of the candidates, just
as the winners are sure to be highly
elated over the signal mark of high
favor that has been shown them by
their friends. For those who do not

it is sorry that it hasn't an auto or a

Pacific trains viii be running into
Portland over the immense steel
bridges across the Columbia and
Willamette rivers by August /.
This statement was made this
morning by Engineer Ralph Mod
jeski, under whose direction the
structures are being erected. He said
the bridges are fast nearing compile
ton, and about all that remains to be
done Is the finishing Of the draw
spans,
The draw span in the bridge across
the Willamette River is the longest in
the world, being s8l feet. Engineer
Modjeski is carefully watching its in
stallation, as every piece Of the great
span will have to fit into Its particular
groove or It may prevent the sue
cessful operation OF the draw

by August for traffic, II is not

who object to the Northern Pacific
crossing the tracks Of the O, R. s.

Names Of Taft and Root Also Send
Cheers Ringing From Gallery to
Gallery IN the Big Convention
Hall.

CHICAGO, June i6. scenes
and stirring enthusiasm the repubIi
can convention of 1908 began with
deliberations at noon today in the
presence Of the assemblage Of more
than 1900 with the sounds OF pa-
triotic airs Alternating with the
frenzied shouts of Roosevelt, TAFT and
other popular heroes. The FIRST tocsin
in the struggle was the graceful ora
tory Of the Michigan senator, J. G.
Burrows, whose speech initiated the
formalities which started this mo-
mentuous gathering into motion. The
opening session lasted less than two
hours and was less notable for the
business accomplished than for the
opportunity afforded seeing again
this stirring picture Of the people as
sembled every corner in the country
to select the candidate for president.
The actual work was quickly accom-
plished and tonight the various com
mittees are preparing for the more
important business to come.
Early in the day all the roads in
Chicago turned toward the huge
stone pile called the Coliseum. Here
centered the convention throngs con-
spicuous among which the Ohio dele
cation with huge silk banner bear
ing the portrait Of Secretary Taft. AT
the front and in the rear Of the great
building was besieged by steady
stream Of humanity. until at noon al
most every seat in the structure was
occupied and great crowds stood out
side to catch the echoes from within.
Just as the opening hour arrived, the
Ohio delegation swung down the
middle aisle bearing aloft the big
Taft banner.
''Taft, TAFT went up from thou
sands Of throats as the well known
face OF the secretary-candidate was
borne to the front. Cheer after cheer
re-echoed from floor to gallery and
back agaiff and for a time Chairman
New was unable to proceed with the
opening formalities.
Again Wisconsin stirred the echoes
with real college yell, which sounded
through the building and exploded
with final "Rah, Rah, Rah Wis
consin," closing it all with the cry
la Toilette
1t was not until 1913 that Chair
nan New stilled the tumult and with
brief formalities introduced the tenn
oorary presiding officer Of the con

srable senator stepped forward, with
ponderous roll Of manuscript in his
rand Slowly the confusion died away
Ind he began to speak. The first
words were audible bearing FIVE feet
sway, but he gradually warmed to
he subject and the well rounded SEN
ences carried to the retnotest corn

Until the senator made THE FIRST men
