Portland. Me.. Serjt. 11. The I , I L I result, of the election in this state yesterday evening, when therepub lican Dlurahtv for governor, which usually approximated 25,ooo, was reduced toabout 8,000, while at the same time the total vote was greatly increased over the figures of four years ago, is attributed by leaders j of both parties to popular feeling over the operation of the prohibito ry liquor laws. Although the re publicans reelected Governor Cobb and.au the lour congressmen ana will nave a working control of the leeielature. the pluralities were so generally reduced es to cause sur prise. Governor Cobb and Congressman LitUefield. in whose district the most vigorous battle of the cam paign was waged, and whose major ity was reduced from that of four years ago by several thousand, are of the opinion that the Sturgis law, providing for the enforcement of the existing prohibitory law by sta'e liquor deputes, was tte Lad ing factor in the result, ine dem ocrats made re-eubmisBion of the liouor prohibitory amendment to the people a part ot their piatiorm, while the republicans stood square' ly for indorsement of the prohibi- torv plank and its strict eniorce- Bsent. The city of Lewiston was one of tbe most important factors in re ducing Littlefield's plurality, for it gave to McGilucuddy a vote ot 143U in excess of that given to JLittie- eld. Four veara ago LitUefield divided votes evenly with bis dem ocratic opponent. Of a etartliue nature was'the vole for governor. Mr. Cobb failed to carry his home city, Rockland, where Davis received a plurality of 17- Augusta, the capital of the state, went democratic by a small margin. Sixteen out of 20 cities in the state went democratic. Two years ago when the candidates for governcx were the same as this year Cobb carried 18 of the 20 cities. Littlefield's vote was 17 321, Mc Gillicuddy', 16,187. Littlefield's plurality ia, 1,134. The legislature is republican, in suring the reelection of Sanator Frye. Republican claim 90 rep resentatives in the legislature out of i51. The v claim 24 out of 3I senators. Officials at the headquar ters of the Federation of Labor re gard Litt efie'ti'j narrow escape as a victcry, and are preparing to re double their efforis to defeat other candidates on their list. The democratic vote for governor is the largest cast by that party since 1880. Two yearB ago Gmr nor Cobb had a plurality of 26,ooo; four seais ago the republican can didate for governor had27,ooo Go ing back to 1890, they ar ol the big democratic tidal wave the republi can plurality Wis 18 joo. The republicans explain yester day's slump by pointing to the dis affection due to the Sturgis liquor law, but this does not explain the big democratic gains in all four congressional districts. Congressman Littlefield was Hot ly fought by Simuel Gompers, pres ident of the American Federation of labor, but this antagonism did not extend to the other three districts. Secretary Tafr, Speaker Joe Can non, Secator Beveridge, Senatoi Lodge and other republicans of na tional repute, went to Littlefield's aid. The democrats relied on home talent and Gompers. The result was that Littlefield's plurality of 5,419 is cut to about 1,200. In the other districts the democrats got no help even from Gompers, yet they cut the plurality of Allen in the First district from 4,9oo to l,6oo the plurality ef Burleigh in the Third from 6,800 to l,5oo, and that of powers in the Fourth from 8,900 to 4,ooo. - ., But for the country vote Gover nor Cobb and Littlefield would sure ly have been -defeated and both Burleigh and Allen would probably have fallen by the wayside. Th democrats gained about 40 mem bers of the legislature, but that body remains republican by 45, against a majority of 123 two years ago. 1 TJoopqna Valley News, Sept. 6. At San Bernardino, Cal., Saturday, in an exceeB of religious zeal, fol lowing the advent of the Holy Roll ers in Southern California, Mis.

Louis His Speech Otbex News. Portland. Sept. 11. Portland Telegram: Teotythree yearB ago today the "last sise" was anven which wedded Portland to St. Paul with iron rails. It was the greatest event celebrated up to that time, and eclipsed anything Bince, with the exception of the T.pwla and Clark Exposition in 1905. Hsnrv Villarl could have been elected to any office within the gift nf the Oregon people when bearriv el September lo, 1883, at night, but all he asked for, after he attend ed, was to visit the Chinese theatre Portlanders were enthusiastic, how ever, and while Villard and as many of his party of German nobles and British Lords as could crowd into the Chinese opera house were smell- log punk sticks, the citizens were gazing at Portland's greatest illum ination, at that date. . There waa a celebration which spread over several deys. It began the night of September 8 and reach ed a climax September 11, in a gi- nantic parade up and down rust street. For ten blocks, Salmon to Vine streetB, First street was decor rted as it never beenbefore nor since. There were three large arches, while everv building on each side of the street was a mass of evergreens flags, bunting, gas jets and pictures Not even Presidents Koosevelt or Harrison receiv d such a reception Symbols ot nre were placed on buildings on First, Front and Bide streets, but the principal effort, to decorate and illuminate was on First. There were three miles of gas pice required for the illumina tions on First street alone, and on the arches and buildings were 25,- 000 gas lets, i Electricity was not used in Portland in those days, and 6uch a collection of gs jets had, up to that time, never been dreamed of. Busicefs bouse, were requettei' to ba sparing with the gas in the'r stores during the illumination in order to keep a BtroDg pressure on decorative jets. As it was the "last spike" of the Northern Pacific railroad, the local office spread itself on decoiatioos and bought 5J0 yards of banting from one store. To illumkat9 the Plaza opposite the court houfe, four dozen Chinese lmterns wire bought When men went along lighting the gas jets Sep'ember lo, Portland turned en masse to see the eight. The only attempt Id 23 loDg years to equal difpiay were the electric J'g'ril.8 at', ia.-t yer'e Exputi-ion Seattle, Wash , S pt. l2.-I0 the court room where the is being tried to determine her sanity Esther Mitchell was reconciled to fcer two brothers, Perry and Fred, this af ernoon. As the two boys came into the room ehe eprai g up from her seat and threw her arms about their neoks, kiseing each effusively. The boys bai corns north to tes tify for their sister, and eha ( recog nized in their appearance an indi cation of their love for her. When they went away from Seattle, tak ing their brother George's body to Oregon for burial, Esther was in different and almost, brutal in her attitude toward the rest of her fam ily. Either the imprisonment or tha manifestation of her brothers' interest has softened her, for this afternoon she was overjoyed at their coming. Notice to Creditors.
