Straw Vote Shows That in Many Sections the
 Contest Likely to
 Be Very Close. WILSON SHOWS GAINS Hughes Dropping Behind While Wilson Is the One Forging Ahead
 in Past Weeks.

NEW YORK. Nov. 6.-The New York Herald. which two days before each election for the last quarter Of 8 century, has accurately predicted the result, has picked President Woodrow Wilson to win a great yio- tory at the polls tomorrow, though it claims that its straw vote in many section of the country shows that the candidates are so close that the result might be changed either way.
 The Herald has strongly support ed Hughes in the campaign.
 In presenting its seventh and final instalment of the straw vote and canvass of the Presidential ist- uation the Herald says that in more than a quarter of a million votes cast and canyassed President Wilson is in the lead. From the straw vote it might be inferred that with a little added impetus the drift which has been steadily nov ine in the Presidents direction might grow into what political writers have termed landslide. Op +be other hand. back drift at the eleventh hour might result in the election of Hughes by small margin in the popular vote of i'm portant States. giving him the prepOnderanee of votes in the cleo tOral college.
 "Of the votes cast up to and ln- cluding the seventh week of the can- vass Hughes has received 4S.6 per cent. and the President has received 49.2 per cent Tn the first week. the President received only ASA per cent. In other words. the President has climbed steadily in the straw vote and Hughes has fallen behind from week to week. Likewise in the division of the former Progressive vote, the nominees have moved in opposite di- rectious - Hughes backwards and President Wilson forward.
 This means that President Will son has grown stronger and strong CT. and if the change has affected those formerly canvassed as it has apparently affected the rest of the country. the Presidents real lead is greater than would be shown in the straw vote.
 A careful canvass by expert au- thOrities supplemented the straw vote, and the placement of the States is made in the light of these expert opinions.
 The Hehald gives these States to Wilson:
 Alabama. Arizona. Arkansas. Col orado. Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Illinois. Kentucky, Louisiana, Mary land, Michigan, Minnesota, Missis- sippi. Missouri Montana, Nebraska. North Carolina. Ohio, Oklahoma. South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin, with total of SO7

 Joseph Irving, Iumberman, and a former member of the Washington State Legislature; ]. F. Beard, for mer sheriff and snohomiah County and Athol Gorrill, a University of Washington student are among the Everett wounded whose conditions are serious.
 HOW BATTLE STARTED
 Shortly after noon today, the citi- zens committee received word that the steamer Verona had left Seattle with several hundred |. w. w. men aboard. On leaving Seattle the lead CTS of the men openly stated that they were going to Everett and would make speeches upon the streets in defiance of the authori- ties.
 The committee, the sheriff and his deputies were notified and they marched to the Everett dock and awaited the arrival of the steamer.
 As the lines of the steamer were thrown ashore the battle suddenly began. Shots rang out upon the air and bullets were flying in all diree- tions. For ten minutes the fussilade continued.
 At almost given signal, as it were, both sides halted and the dead and wounded were picked up. The local authorities placed five of the dead on board the steamer to be ta- ken to Seattle and the wounded on the wharf were rushed to the hos pltals here.
 Aboard the boat, the wounded were placed in staterooms and the steam CT shortly asterward cast off and headed back to Seattle.
 Both sides claim that the other side fired first.
 A second cleaner from Seattle, upon nearing the ocene and witness ing the fighting, turned back.

Naval reserves were called out and one company of the State militia. With the local authorities, these bodies of the mlIi- tary force marched to the Coleman dock to handle the returning In- dustrlal workers. They made no reslstence here and were marched to the city jail, later being dstri. hrted 4o 4he county iail and the

The fact that thousands of dollars have been posted in Seattle for weeks to bet on even money on Wilson being elected and New York brokers have been advised of that fact often. yet only S75,OOO has been telegraphed here to take it and that was all covered by one man. is taken to mean here that the New York odds have been juggled.

There is much complaint from
every side regarding scarcely OF
labor, there being u scarcity IN
tho manufacturing plants and IN
the cotton fields and wheat har-
yesting. Cotton chOpping IS far
behind on account of the heavy
rams aud the weeds and grass
getting such a start. The scarci-
~ OF labor is due 10 the fact that
there is 80 much work going on
throughout the entire community
at the present tune. There IS
large acreage OF cotton this year
and the planters in the lower
bottoms are offering unusual prlc
es for labor to work out their
cotton; there is yet much corn
TO be planted, this being delayed
on account Of 40 much Tain, the
factories are running full time
but are feeling scarcity OF labor.
In addition to all this there is
unusual amount Of building 60
ing on, giving employment "a
every kind Of labor.

In some sections Of Fulton
county the wheat crop IS almost
an utter failure. Our friend
d. II. McKelyey tells US he has
10 acres for which he would
take so. The Hessian fly has
played havoc, even after the
winter freezes greatly damaged
the stands. At wheat sowing
time last fall the Courier warn
ed our farmers against early
sowing; and early planting IS adj
mittedly the principal cause OF
the fly. Those who sOwed late,
or on stalk land, have better
wheat than those who sOwed earl
on land that has been run IN
wheat. The fly is getting more
numerous each year, thriving on
volunteer and early sown wheat
in which the eggs are deposited
and terminated for the destruc'
tiop Of the crop a year ahead
The only way in the world g
fight this pest is to sow late.
