nu manifest yesterday. During the day
dozens of the faithful dropped 'In for a
brief conference with Chairman Sweek
and aecretary Ryan, 'of the state com
mittee, or George H. Thomas, chairman
of the County Central Committee. Others
stood around In small groups and dis
cussed the result of today's election. Only
one outcome the election of Bryan could
be foreseen by those asked for an opinion.
That belief found some further encour
agement lata In the afternoon when a
Bryan supporter rushed Into headquarters
and excitedly declared that betting on the
result In Oregon had dropped to a margin
.of f'X) plurality and that wagers by Re-
, publicans could not be obtained on a
greater figure.
'Reports that have been reaching
' Democratic headquarters since Saturday
fully Justify my estimate of 360 plurality

Ryan, of the Democratic State Central
Committee yesterday. "There Is no ques
tion but that we shall carry the state."
"You may say for me." followed County
Chairman Thomas, "that Bryan will
carry Multnomah County. I am not pre

Spokane Democrats Also Hope to
Elect J.etlslatlT Ticket.
SPOKANE. Wash.. Nov. 2. (Special.)
While D. T. Ham. chairman of the
Republican Central Committee, Is
claiming that Spokane County will give
the head of the ticket at least 4000
majority, and E. A. Child, chairman of
the Democratic committee. Is claiming
the county for Bryan by 1000. it Is the
general opinion that Taft and Cos
grove will have at least 3500 majority,
and Polndexter and the balance of the
ticket nearly as much. The full county
ticket Is' surely Republican, but two
Legislative Districts are In doubt. '
We will give Taft 4000 majority.:'
said D. T. Ham. "and we will give the
State legislature and county tickets as
much."
;'From the reports which are coming
In from all over the county, the situa
tion, from a Democratic standpoint. Is
most satisfactory," says E. A. Child.
"We expect to carry the county for
Bryan. Paulson and Goodyear by a
small majority, perhaps 1000. As to the
county and Legislative tickets, the con
test will be a close one. but we will
elect the majority of our candidates and
bave a good chance to elect the whole
ticket."

seems to be that Taft will have a sub
stantial plurality. There is much interest
In the gubernatorial tight, and the Capital
News iDem.) claims the election or .noses
Alexander by about 5000. Republicans
claim James H. Brady will have at least
lo.'juu plurality. Southern Idaho has a
large-proportion of Mormon voters, and a
heavy- Republican rote Is looked for in
this part of the state. The Legislature
undoubtedly will be Republican, insuring
the re-election of United Slates natof
Heyburn.

STATE TICKET BADLY SPLIT
Republican Nominees Will Run Be
hind. Taft In Washington.
SEATTLE, Wash., Nov. 2. (Special.)
With the last gun fired In King
County, tha hotbed of Washington poll
tics, by the principal speakers of the
campaign. John Pattlson. Democratic
nominee for Governor, and William E.
Humphrey, nominee for Congress,
chairmen of both parties tonight gave
out their clainia for tomorrows elec
tion. EIHs DeBruller. state Republican
chairman, declares that Washington
will go Republican by 20.000 and that
Taffs majority will be more. -than 40,
000. Roosevelt carried the state by
72.000.
Unbiased indications are that the
labor vote will go with a fair strength
for Bryan. Unionists are well organ
ized and are carrying on a strong fight.
Indications also point to a badly Bpllt
atate and county ticket.
The latest statements given out by
Democratic headquarters claim the
state bv 20,000 and King County by
5000. The betting odds on Taft here
are 2 to 1. There has been about
I1,000 posted on general results. There
Is but little Bryan money left to be
had. Chairman Terry, of the Demo
crats: declares that not less than SO
per cent of the labor vote will go for
Bryan electors.
With the exception of the strong
campaigning done by John Pattlson,
Democratic candidate for Governor, the
Democrats o-jtside of King County have

SEATTLE. Nov. S. The eve of elec

Xymocrallc parties confident of suc

careful poll by counties has caused
the Republicans to predict that the
state will go at least 20.000 for Taft

to carry the state by at least 4600.

Totals About $4,500,000.
SALEM. Or.. Nov. 2. (Special.)
That there is confidence in the future
value of unimproved lands in Oregon
is- Indicated by the fact that sales of
state land during the past two years
aggregated 243.21$ acres .as compared
with 47.037 acres for the preceding
two years, and much of the land sold
brought a considerably higher price
than was paid for land sold in the last
biennial period.'
There is not a corresponding Increase
In cash receipts, however, for the rea
son that sales are made on the install
ment plan and the money received dur
ing the past two years was to a large
extent payments on sales made In pre
vious years. The Increased payments
will be shown In subsequent reports.
As it is, however, the receipts were
2823.020. as compared with $388,996
during the years 1905 and 1906. The
sales and receipts for the last two
years are shown by the biennial re
port of the State Land Board, which
was completed today by Clerk G. G.
Brown. .
Because of the low rate of Interest
charged by the state there has been a
demand for loans from the school
fund and the amount of loans has in
creased In proportion to the increased
amount of the fund. The loans during
the past twostyears amounted to 82.
042.660. as compared with 21.588.230
during the preceding two years. At
the date of the report. October 1, there
was but HI. 484. 86 in cash In the treas
ury credited to the common school
fund, all the rest, amounting to 14.
206.713.42. being Vut- at interest. In
addition to this there Is due the state
school fund from the American Bond
ing Company $288.46.87 on account of
the failure of the TJtle Guaranty &
Trust Company bank. It will thus be
seen that the common school fund,
amounts to about $4,500,000.
There are also outstanding certifi
cates of sale upon which there is due
$676,254.77. drawing interest at 5 per
cent, making the total of interest
drawing funds to' the credit of the
common school fund over $5,100,000.
During the two years the Board
cancelled 158 certificates of sales cov
ering 116.463 acres upon which repay
ments were made to the amount of
$115,183.70, but a large part of this
land was resold at double the price
at which the first sale was made. In
the case of 35.852 acres of this total,
the land had originally been sold at
$1.25 an acre but the sales were can
celled for fraud. The land will now
bring not less than $8.75 an acre.
The Board suggests no changes In
the state land laws, but says that the
act of 1907 Is very comprehensive and
satisfactory.

BOTH CLAIMING CALIFORNIA
Expef' Opinion, However, Declares
State Safe for Taft.
SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 2. Expert
opinion leaves California In the Repub
lican column as regards the National
ticket, but it is difficult to strike a me
dium between the 20.000 plurality claimed
by the Democrats and the 45.000 that
General George Stone gives Taft In his
forecast. In several of tne larger cities
local contests are engaging a major share
of attention and National affaire are re
pnrrled with something approaching
Apathy. It is expected that the Demo
cratic minority in the Sxate Legislature
will be strengthened to some extent, but
not sufficiently to affect the election of
a United States Senator to succeed George
C. Perkins. Democrats base their strong
est hopes of breaking the solid Repub
lican Congressional delegation from the
state on the campaign waged against
Julius Kahn. in the Fourth, and a A.
Hayes', in the Fifth districts. The Re
publicans claim a victory for both.
It Is conceded that the labor element
will cut a very considerable figure in the
result, but in California, as elsewhere in
the country, a majority of the working
men is claimed by both Democrats and
Republicans. The state will vote upon
the question of electing Senators by a
direct vote of the people. '

SHOOT INTO CAR WINDOWS
Miscreants Almost Commit Murder
on Southern Pacific Trains."
ROSEBURG. Or.. Nov. 2. (Special.)
For the second time within a week
a bullet has been fired at a Southern
Pacific passenger train, either by acci
dent or design. The latter shooting
occurred Saturday afternoon when
passenger train No. 14 was in the
vicinity of Reuben, a station about GTT
miles south of Roseburg. The bullet
entered a window and struck the op
posite side of the car where It was
found by a brakeman deeply embedded
in the wood.
The shooting a week before occurred
In almost. the same place. Just an In
stant before the bullet passed through
the window, a lady who was occupy
ing that seat had held a small child
on her lap. A slight move on the
child's part saved Its life, as it was
directly in the path of the bullet. On
the opposite side of the car the bullet
passed between two lltle girls, both
siting in the same seat. '.

HOW TO BUY
JEWELRY
It's an unusual title
for an 'advertisement
"How to Buy Jewelry"
but nevertheless it-is a
valuable bit of informa
tion to most people.
When buying jewelry
of any kind, it's . worth
more than anything else
to know that you are get
ting the genuine.'
You. can find an as
sortment of all kinds of
jewelry, both in the solid
and plate, at my store,
that cannot be surpassed
in the Northwest.
It's a fact that what
ever 3rou buy of me is the
genuine. If you. .want
solid gold, you get it; if
it's plate, I have it for
you.
The principal feature
of jewelry-buying, that
should be more carefully
followed than any other,
is that you go where the
best goods are sold
where the best judges of
fine jewelry go for their
jewelry.
- If you will select any
article of jewelry that I
have for sale, you will be
safe in the knowledge
that you have bought the
genuine, and that there
is exclusiveness to the
design and pattern.
- I extend an invitation
to all who appreciate fine
jewelry to call and in
spect my display.
