The weather generally being ;ood, consequently many of the people in the districts that were somewhat isolated must have urned out in large numbers. The returns have been very alow in coming in, and accurate and complete returns cannot be securcH at this time, however the following, will indicato how ho votostood, on the part of the county candidates, and with only a few precincts yet to hear from, resutls will not bo materially changed. For county officers those who were elected are as follows, as near aa the count can be ascer tained this afternoon, there be ing a few isolated districts that have not been heard from at this time: County Judge G.

As the election returns began to come in, earlier than was expected, the first results the Governor got were favorable and his comment was, "That's very encouraging." The returns that continued to ar a a come irom Massacnuseus, .Con necticut and New York allfavor- de Governor Wilson and the par ty about the dinner table showed its pleasure. Captian "Bill" McDonald, the Texas ranger, who is the Gover nor's bodyguard, read a stack of returns and felt so happy that he exclaimed: "I wonder if I'd get arrested if I just shot off my guns. If it keeps up this I will just have to turn them loose." Captain McDonald is a close friend of Colonel Roosevelt, but differs with him politically. The Governor was not over con fident. When shown the returns from New York he smiled: "I'm supposed to carry the city by three to one in order to win tne state," he said as he continued his dinner leisurely. tne 8Hri!1?K:,in in thn oldest daugh t. of Mr. and Mrs. Sanford Sfthultz. and her father is one of the county's most prosperous ranchers and csteemou citina In addition to possessing i urnnith nf beauty sho has pre HUVnrn rfnva fin I Y V " .

Assertions were made today from several quarters where an effort had been made to gather preliminary popular vote figures that Governor Wilson had notse mivivl n maioritv of the votes VtUl'V - " w cast throughout the country. Estimates range from a small majority of all votes to figures nnm-v 1.00.000 below a major- 5rv. The popular votes, how over, would in no way affect his complete control w of the electoral college.

The amendement on the ques tion of single tax seems to be another doomed to defeat by a very large majority, and the writer is certainly glad to hear of it. The amendment of equal suff rage for women in Oregon has a fair chance of winning accord ing to many reports, and was ahead at the last newspaper re ports this morning, however the tendency seemed to be sightly against it, with the lead that had been accumulated, being over come by the opposition. The Cascade County measure is snowed under and the hotel inspector bill is in the running for clear championship. The blue sky law also seems to have gone to its death in the avalanche of oes". It is probable that the anti boycott bill has been defeat ed, but there is still doubt as to the anti street speaking law. To get an idea how the vote is runincr. the lonowmg ngures oi a partial count from the districts in and around Portland on the senatorial race is as follows from this morning's Oregonian: Selling 20,496, Lane 20,613, Bourne 18,592, Clark 597, Paget 3095. This gives Lane a lead of 17 votes and indicates a final plurality against Bourne of about 12,000. The constest for Senator is con- cusive only in being between Sell ing and Lane. Bourne is ibadly out of it. Last night Selling showed i gradual creeping up on his op ponent, who therefore had been in the lead, and there is a pros pect that he will carry the state, although it may require the com plete count to confirm his election The returns leave no room for doubt as to any results on the state ticket and Congressional ticket. Hawley, in the first, Sinnott, in the second, and Laf ferty, in the third, are well to the good over their opponents. Olcott is elected secretary o state: Mickle, dairy and food commissioner, and Atchison, railroad commissioner. Martin Wood Wins Case A case wnicn attracted more than the usual interest, on ac count of the wide aquaintance enjoyed by the parties concern ed, was that of Martin Wood, plaintiff, vs. O. L. Jackson and J. H. O'Kelly, defendants, which was tried before a jury in Judge J, H. Jackson's temple of justice last Friday, and which was suit instituted oy wpod to re cover $82.90 wages due him for laooriwhiie engaged oy the a- bove named defendants, and per formed on their threshing machine. The jury, after a short deliber ation, returned a verdict in fav or of Wood for the full amount and cost of action. Immediate ly after the decision was render ed, the attorney for the defend ants gave verbal notice of appeal in open court, Attorney Bergland represented the plantiff, and Attorney Irving the defendants. Literary Society Meets Considerabe interest was shown Monday evening at Sanford's Hall at the meeting of The Mad ras Literary and Debating So ciety, the question of Womens Suitrage was tne topic oi some very interesting talks by W. R Cook, Mrs. W. A. Ellis, Wade Siler and E. L. Milner on the affirmative side of the question and C. E. Roush, Mrs. Andrew Morrow, J. H. Jackson, and L H. Irivng on the negative side. The judges secured to decide the question of debate, were Mrs. E.L. Milner, W. J. Branstet er and W. F. Hammer, and they decided that the question o uquai suiteage ior women in. Oregon would be to the common wealth, and to the inhabitants thereof. The attendance at these de bates seems to be growing and it is expected that several ques tions of interest to all the resi dents' of Madras will be taken up and discussed during the coming winter, and several entertain ments of an instructive nature. will be had under the auspices of this society. Nearly 80,000,000 Buihela Were Produced In tho Statea of Ore gon, Washington ard Idaho Nearly 80,000,000 bushels of wheat were produced in the Pa cific Northwest this season, by far the greatest harvest in the history of the three Btates. Even the extreme estimates of uly, when the harvest was started, are eclipsed by the esti mate made lately, while for a ime there was a general fear hat the crop would be curtailed considerably by unseasonable weather. Not only were the previous es timates too conservative for this state, but those made for Wash ington and Idaho were really un der what actual returns from the crops show. : The crop in each of the three states was a surprise even to the growers themselves, and, while there are instances, and in cer- ian districts where the yeilcs did not come up to expectations after the harvest, the totals show an increase of nearly 4,000, -000 bushels over those prtvious- y made. There were several reasons for this increase in the estimate of the crop.. While no greater show ing was made in the winter planting from that previously made, the spring crop far ex ceeded expectations, and it was in this planting that the in crease in the totals is made. At the time of making the July estimate, it was believed that much more damage had been done the spring crop by the hot winds and a late start than has actually been shown by har vest returns. The damage by the rains has been made in the nature of loss in quailty ratfier- than in quantity. Two of the three states show an increase in tne production over 1911, while only one shows decrease. The latter is due only to the fact that there was less wheat planted in that state this season than a year ago. Average yield per acre is greater in each of the three states than it was a year ago, and only the decreased planting in Idaho this seascn kept the Pacific Northwest from producing more than 80,000,000 bushels this season. vOn the same acreage in the Gem, State as a year ago., and with the present showing in Ore gon and Washington, the yield this season would have been closer to 83,000,000 bushels than the present showing of 78,530,000 bushels. There were suprises in store for wheat growers in nearly all sections of the Pacific northwest this season. Yields of 45 to 50 bushels per acre were compara tively common, and in many places where the average produc tion in recent years has not been more than 20 to 25 bushels, many 30 to 35 bushel props were actual ly sacked this year. Central Oregon, southeastern Oregon, eastern Oregon and the Palouse were all big surprises this season. In each of these districts the yields were greater than former estimates, while only in the Big Bend of Washington was even a slight decrease noted. The latter was due to the poor start that the spring crop had and the loss during the harvest. In the Columbia river counties Gilliam, Moryow and Sherman, the yields were fractionaly better than had been expected, and these forecast the greatest crop Concluded on Pas 3) 1 1 V W6 OOnillnh linafial UlOVilva - - i UIWU'MMM limited succdsi.
