ELECTION INTEREST is GENERAL
Republicans and Democrats DO Ener
eetic Work, While Prohibition
lists Boost Campaign.

North Yakimas heavy vote on
Tuesday, and the condition in North
Yakima was similar to all precincts
of the county. was due to the activity
of the republican. democratic and
prohibition leaders who kept up per-
sistent work for the various caudi-
dates to the very last minute that the
polls were open. If there was any
belief that apathy would prevail, this
was soon brushed aside by the way
the voters focked to the polls
While national and state candi-
dates We're not considered in Ques-
ton, the contests on local candida es
called for some interest The demo-
Gratis were especially active. as far as
number Of poll workers and carriages
was concerned
There was not polling place in
which a democratic worker did not
hold forth with sample ballots, while

One of the startling features OF
the day was a canard that was cir

THE FOREIGN MARKETS.

LONDON, June 2O.-The stock exchange
has seen a hesitating and uncertain week.
Continental operators took fright az the
reported bellicose speech of Emperor
William. and this, together with the re-
cent adverse developments in American
railroads and the desire to await the re-
suit Of the Chicago convention. helped
to restrict business and depress prices.
The markets generally. however. have
shown good resisting power and the week
in the gilt-edge section. This department.
led by consols, exhibited considerable
firmness at the week end.
Investment business, however. has been
almost at standstill. owing to the con-
tinued flood OF new capital Issues which
have provided the public with ample op.
portunities for the employment Of its
money at attractive rates without re-
course to the stock exchange. In this re-
spect 1908 promises to be a boom year,
The new issues already total 91OS 900 600.
the highest amount for the corresponding
period Of any previous seven years.
The final tone of the market was cheer
full. The American section showed con-
siderable f1uctuating during the week.
Numerous selling orders from the United
States yesterday. coupled with the effect
Of the Louisville and Nashville reduced
dividend and the bad monthly statement
of Baltimore and Ohio quickly neutralized
the squirt which followed Secretary Taft g
nomination. and the close was steady at
a lower level.
The reduction in the Imperial Bank Of
Germany's rate Of discount Is considered
to be an indication that money is likely
to remain plentiful and cheap. The dis
count rate has been declining throughout
the week.
BERLIN, June 20-Prices on the bourse
today were much weaker. Coal and iron
shares were heavily sold. American Sc
curities lost two points.

today was unsteady.
