SCHOOL REPORT GM LfflSLIDE SHOWS BIG GAINS FOR REPUBLICANS That Taft and the Republican ticket had a great landslide in Tues day’s election is evident from the returns th it have come in. Up to a late hour last night it could not 4>e definitely ascertained what the final result would be, but Taft was conceded to have at least 295 electoral votes, with returns coming in from the west strengthen ing his lead to the extent that Hitch cock’s claim of 325 might yet be realized. Taft carried New York City by 15,000 the first time in the history of the country that the city has gone Republican for president. Ohio and Indiana, considered as doubtful are both safely in the Republican column. Oregon is Republican by 20,000 and Washington by 40,000. Hughes was elected governor of New York by 75.000 majority ac cording to associated press reports, while Johnson was elected governor ot Minnesota. Bryan has probably carried his own state, but he lost all other stares around it. As to final results in all states it is not yet po ;- sible to state definitely. Congress will remain Republican in both houses by about the same majority as the present one, at least this is the report of the associated press and it is genen lly conceded by the Democrats that the Repub licans had a landslide. ----- 000— Big Student Body University of Oregon, Eugene, Oct. 30, 1908.-Every county in the state, with the ex eption of a half dozen in Eastern and Southeastern Oregon in which there are no com plete high schools, and every four year high school and academy in the state is represented in the students at the University of Oregon.

Liberty May Go to Coos Bay The Coquille River Transporta tion Company is figuring on bring ing the steamer Liberty to Coos Bay and put it on the Coos River run if the proposed merger of the boat lines on the boat does not go h rough. The Coquille River Trans portation Co. haue been anxious to go in on the merger of the lines, but there is considerable doubt as to whether the merger can be effected. In case it doesn’t, the company plans to enter into competition with some of the existing lines. Manager C. J. McLain of the company, was over from Coquille the other day in vestigating the situation but did no. make any annonncement at the time If the merger goes through, it will mean the retirement of Captain Rodgers, one of the oldest naviga- ors in this section, from the busi ness. — Times.
