GROWN USED TO DEFEAT Sentiment at Democratic Headquar ters Indicates Hang-Together Spirit, Even in Downfall of Their Ticket. . "The spirit of the Democrat is truly remarkable. He quaileth not at defeat, he rejolceth in extremity, he listeneth without anger to the taunting sounds, he " J3ut the sound of the voice died sud denly when State Chairman Alex Sweek, State Secretary John B. Ryan and Coun ty Clmirman George B. Thomas, of the Democratic committees: W. N. Gatens, secretary to Governor Chamberlain: H. S. J. .McAllister and State 9enator Milton A. Milton, of Linn County, turned their eyea "suddenly In the direction whence it had proceeded. The six bedrock Demo crats were In process of being Inter viewed as to the result of the election when the vocal noise disturbed their mental mechaniFm. Chairman Sweek turned his smilingly interrogative eyes on the five others. "'Not me." said Miller, "Not me," said the others, with the exception of McAllister. "I'll say," said McAllister, "that the face of the Democrat Is truly remark able. It shows no signs of distress. I'm not responsible for the rest." Stick Together In 'Defeat. Chairman Sweek's said expression said "We'll let It go at that," but vocally he said, "the spirit is here. . In defeat, we have the old guard here," and he looked around upon loo or more bedrock Demo crats who knew for a certainty of the overwhelming defeat of Bryan, and yet stayed In the headquarters and waited for returns and a chance to cheer even a slight victory in an isolated locality. "We stand." said Chairman Sweek, after a survey of his audience, "for the same principle that we have stood for since the first nomination of Bryan, 12 years ago. Four years hence the public will recognize that principle. Bryan was certainly right on the main Issues of the campaign. He is a great leader and he is not downed and never will be downed except by death. The election of Taft is certainly a great defeat for organized labor." "Bryan will most unequivocally be" my candidate in 1912, whether John son be elected Governor of Minnesota or Chanler of New York," said Mr. McAllister. Bryan's Chance Next Time. "If Johnson were our candidate this year -the Democrats would have the next President of the United States," said Harry Wolf, the veteran Demo cratic warhorse. who Just Btepped Into the room. "When I came back from the East I said that. Not a manu facturer there was for Bryan. Bryan had had two trials and the people were tired of him." "Bryan made a gallant fight," said Senator Miller. "He fell for a prin ciple we all stand for. I don't know who the devil our next candidate will be." f "Bryan sure. If Bryan is alive," In terrupted H. D. Wagnon. "It Is true that Bryan was slaughtered this time, but I believe in a slaughter every time for a principle." "Slaughter la nothing unusual for us." said Miller. "The Oregonlan once said that if the Democrats were beat they could say that they had been beat before. No disgrace in that. Is there? We'll make another fight, and if we lose again our spirit remains." For Bryan-againr inquired Kooert LARGEST FURS! FURS!

"I'll keep my opinion to myself for a day or two." said Secretary Ryan. "You shouldn't" Interjected the irre pressible Henry Gray. "The Democrats are carrying Wheeling, W. Va, and all because Klklns Is permitting his daughter to marry a foreign prince. Don't repeat the story, I've copyrighted it. If we can contrive to get a couple hundred more millionaire Republicans to many their daughters to foreign princes, we might carry the county in 1912." "Hurrah!" was the greeting of Al Tozier. Democrat since he attained his majority (how) many years ago. "Apple crop fine up In Hood River?" Inquired Gatens, with an expression that he intended as a comforting preliminary to the serious conversation that would follow. "Down to market your crop, Aa I pre sume?" naively inquired Chairman Sweek. ... "No. hang It! I came down to vote, and also to see how a house could fall on me." The mirth was suppressed. Waiting for Returns. "Well, Al. have you been there be fore?" Tnquired J. H. Fletcher, former Lieutenant-Governor of South Dakota and now a capitalist of St. John. "Three times Bryan and once Parker and I've Just given my third hurrah for Bryan." "Well, then." said Fletcher, "you can bear the news like a noble Roman. But." gravely, "more than a house fell upon you this time." . ............... , r A Cor. 4th and Morrison Streets AND LEADING BUY FURS AT A FUR STORE Specials of Interest Just for Today Grand Silk Petticoat Sale, $4.98 A manufacturer's sample line of Taffeta Silk Petticoats, in all the desirable light and dark shades, in plain colors OA QQ and stripes, actually worth $7.50 and $8.00, only. . . .

"Good night, then; I'm back to the apple fields for the next four years." "Stay awhile longer," advised Harry Grafton, one of the warriors of the party. "We're getting good news from both Jehnson and Chanler." Mr. Tozier took a seat and entered into a discussion of city and county politics. He said he' still claimed Portland as his legal residence, and without the knowl edge of enemies or friends he had dropped down to vote for Bryan. 'Looks like old times to see you boys around," he said. "There were Just about as many around to say 'howdy' to me when I lost out in my race for City Audi tor in 189. Democrats always stick to gether until the candle burns out." Accustomed to Losing "We are certainly cheerful losers." re marked Grafton. "We've got accustomed to it," said Mu nicipal Judge Van Zante. "Cheerfulness becomes a part of our nature." "Landslides are nothing to us." contrib uted Bishop H. L. Barkley. ;'In our fa vor or against us we receive them with neither hilarity nor regret, but with sane Joy:" . "I'm sorry the landslide is against us this time," said Gatens. "I hope Taft will perform all he has promised to do give us better times, more prosperity and a fuller dinner pall for the work lngman." "The landslide surprised me," said Colo nel W. T. -Bumey. "I believed from what a prominent Republican Grand Army man told me that oertain parts of the East he had visited were safe for Bry an. They went for Taft." "Now. let's call It oft for four years," said William Foley, of legal fame, and bestowing his contagious Hibernian smile upon the whole party and a number of the faithful that were not members of it, he sank Into a chair, only to rise again in a minute, with this to say: 'Boys, we're up Salt Creek. We have to put a happy face upon it, .as we have done before. We'll be together - again four years from now if all are living, but let's call it off for the present. I'm going home, not sickened by defeat, but because I've been working all day." Chairmen Sweek and Thomas, respect ively, of the state and county -committees, and Secretary Ryan, of the state committee, did not take the barrister's advice. Instead they remained at head quarters until the operator said the last returns had been received. NO MORE DOUBTFUL .STATES Hitchcock Says Result Shows His Estimate Was Too Low. NEW YORK, Nov. 3. At 10:30 o'clock Chairman Frank Hitchcock of the Re publican National Committee met the newspaper reporters in Ills office at Na tional headquarters and made the follow ing statement: "The returns speak for themselves.

"I predicted early in the evening that Mr. Hughes would be elected. To Gover nor Hughes we owe much. As a cam paigner he has helped wonderfully In the National contest. All of us here at head quarters were greatly interested In the fight. He has earned his victory and we are glad for him and grateful to him for the help he has given us." When Mr. Hitchcock was asked to what he attributed 'the victory of the National ticket he replied: "The people have explained that. It is not for me to say anything more except to thank the people.
