OREGON STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST IMPROVEMENT AT UNIVERSITY ALBANY BOOSTS FOR LINE. PLURALITY IS LESS. Jacksonville Post Republicans Carry Vermont by a Ma jority of 28,000. White River Junction, Vt., Sept. 2.— lite Republicans won the election in Vermont yesterday by carrying the state for Lieutenant Governor George H. Prouty, of Newport, for governor, by about 28.000 votes over James E. Burke, of Burlington, his Democratic opponent. The plurality was the smallest in a presidential year since 1892, when it was only 18,596, and was followed by a Democratic na tional victory; but it was larger than in 1888, anil only slightly less than in 190:). There was a falling off in four years of about 8 per cent in the Re publican vote, while the Democratic vote fell off about 2 per cent. The Independence League appeared for the irst time, and polled about 1000 votes, while the Prohibition and Socialist vote remained about the same. An unusually large number of local candidates for the legislature, although bringing out a heavy vote and resulting in Democratic gains in ; the lower branch of the legislature, apparently had no bearing on the gubernatorial fight. As Vermont is the first state to vote during the presidential cam- I paign. there was much interest ! throughout the country in the size of I the Republican plurality.
