SOME INSTRUCTIVE READING.
Americans and Swedes Mainly Made up
the Republican Vote.
NON-VOTERS WIBK REPUBLICANS.
The Effect of a Heavy Overdone of JSirt
uralisation in the A ay lam for
the iPppressed.
Special to fm Chronicle. . v ' ' ..
Chicago, Dec. 2. Now that the offi
cial canvass of the returns of the late
election in this city is complete a word
in regard to the showing of the vote may
prove instructive. It appears from
their returns that every ward in the city
that is dominated by the foreign vote
went democratic, while every American
ward save the 1st, tbe. 8th and the
24th went republican.. 'Those three
wards contain many lodging and board
ing houses. In these respects they have
a marked character of their own. The
other American wards, the 2d, 3d, 4th,
11th, 12th, 25th, 27th, 31st and 32d, went
republican. In the 13th and 34th wards,
where neither the American nor the for
eign vote predominates to any great ex
tent, the two parties showed . almost
equal strength. In the Irish wards, the
19th and 29th ; in the German wards,
the 5th, 6th, 10th, 14th, 15tb, 20th, 21st,
22d and 26th ; in the Polish 16th ward ;
in the Bohemian and German 7th, 8th
and 9th wards; ia the Irish and Scandi
navian 23d ward ; in the 17th, 28th, 30th
and 3Sd wards, with their voters of
many races, the democrats bad large
majorities.
An analysis of the returns apparently
indicates that Americans and Swedes
mainly made up the republican vote.
Of coarse men - of other nationalities
voted that ticket, just as Americans
voted the democratic ticket, but the tide
of German, Irish, Polish and Bohemian
votes set strongly the other way. The
wards and precincts where dwell the
workers in manufactories seem to have
gone democratic almost without excep
tion. It also appears that about 35,000
registered voters staid away from the
polls. As there were no democratic
votes missed from the returns it is fair
to conclude voters were republicans.
What brought about this - tremendous
result? If it was the tariff question
principally why did the American wards
go republican? ' Doubtless the tariff
question caused a change of very many
votes and contributed largely to" the 're
sult ; but the effect of heavy naturaliza
tion, tbe influence of the Homestead
strike and of ihi school question, proba
bly were the three great causes of tbe
democratic landslide here.
Sugar Beets.
Pacific Farmer. The agitation of the
sugar beet industry is taking firm hold
in this country, and if the bounty of 2
cents per pound is maintained there will
be a large amount of money made on
the capital invested in the industry.
Take, for example, the past seasons run
at the Chino ugarie oi California. The
Beasoh closed October 29th, having been
in operation' since July 1st. Nearly 28,-
000 tons of beets were worked up, for
which the factory paid the farmers
$112,000. The total output of crude
sugar was 7,603,541 pounds, on which
the government gives a bounty of nearly
$150,000. Over 500 bands were employed
in the factory and beet fields, and $150,
000 were paid out in wages. The beets
have shown a remarkably high per cent,
of sugar, some lots run 22 per cent, and
bringing $6 a ton.' It will thus be seen
that the government bounty paid all ex
penses of labor. The sugar factory
made $112,000 for the farmer, and about
$20,000 per month for the factory for the
four months in which it was operated.
The capacity and supply of beets will
probably be doubled next year, and as
the farmers will be better acquainted
with the methods of caring lor them the
per cent, of sugar will be higher and the
profits more. This is an industry in
which Oregon and Washington should
take a prominent hand. '
What Good Is Itf
Sam Francisco, Dec. 1. The News of
this city urges the appointment of Ste
pben M. White, of California, for sec
retary of the interior under Cleveland.
W If AT WILL HE I WITH IT? .
Which Nathan Pierce Has Been 'Chosen
Klector For Oregon. 55 .
Pendleton. Tribune. It - is now an
nounced that Nathan Pierce has been
elected a presidential etector for Oregon.
If that is true, it is presumed ' he will
cast one vote in the electoral college,
but for whom? " Upon many, if not all,
of the tickets used in the state, in con'
travention of the clear and express
words of tbe statute, . Mr. Pierce's name
appeared twice, once as representing
W eaver and once representing Cleveland.
Now if he gets a certificate of election,
which is very doubtful, for whom will he
cast his vote? . "

President Elect Cleveland Vould Mot
Escape The Minions of The Law. '
A dispatch from Exinore, Va., says
the chief incident of the day was the ar
rival oif the Sheriff of Northampton
county with a summons for ' President
elect Cleveland to appear before the
chancery court at Richmond. He would
not state what case was involved. Cleve
land had good luck while out dunking
today. The summons which Cleveland
received, it was afterwards learned, was
in a chancery suit in connection with
the state debt commission. -
Putting np a Job.
Baker City Blade. A petition to
congress is in circulation and is being
largely signed, relating to the disposal
of unsold Umatilla reservation land. It
asks that the agriculture land be sold in
160 acre tracts to "actual settlers there
on" at the appraisement price, and the
land unfit for agriculture in 640-acre
tracts. A party who. has investigated
the matter sees in this petition a scheme
for the 'aggrandizement of some indi
viduals who want to ' "gobble up" the
range. There are now "squatters" upon
nearly every quarter section where there
is any water, who have built cabins of
government lumber, and are waiting to
be classed as "actual settlers" in case a
bill as petitioned for should pass con
gress. Of course the remainder of the
range is valueless without water, and
those who are not in at the start will be
coldly left. .
The Monetary Conference.
London, Dec. 1. A special correspon
dent reports that the committee of the
Brussels international monetary confer
ence reported last night against Roths
child's scheme. This, however, the cor
respondent says is not taken as a bi
metalist defeat. The committee will
now proceed to decide upon the com
bined Rothschild and Soether'e plans,
with the modifications proposed in be
half of the Latin union. It is expected
majority and minority reports will be
presented tomorrow. Prospects of an
early agreement by the conference are
considered remote.
Electric Power.
Oregonian. Mr. P. F. Morey, presi
dent of the Portland General Electric
company, leaves for the east tonight,
accompanied by Mr. .W. C. Cheney,
electrician of the company, to close con
tracts for the electrical and mechanical
plant required for tbe immense power
station to be built on the west side of
the river at Oregon City, for supplying
electricity for lighting and power pur
poses in Portland. Tbe company w ill
expend on this station about $1,500,000,
and it will be the most extensive affair
of the kind in the United States. Mr.
Morey will return home about Christ
mas. Peunoyer's Position.
Eugene Register. Governor Pennoyer
declined to meet with the governors of
other states in conference upon the
Nicaragua canal project, on the ground
that he was inflexibly opposed to gov
ernment aid to any private corporation.
The governor is at least consistent and
his grounds are especially appropriate
in consideration of the verdict of the
people at the recent election. If the
gouernor will simply stick to it he may
yet see the entire nation converted to
his views on political questions.
Public Debt Statement.
Wasaington, Dec. 1. The debt state
ment for Novem ber will show a decrease
of about $1,000,000 in the treasury cash
balance.

Rumor That The Brussels Conference
Have Reported Adverse to Roths
child. Washington, Dec.-2. Statistics of the
postoffice department for the past fiscal
year show that the total cost of tbe in
land mail service was $41,335,272 ; : for
eign mail service, $806,145. Compared
with last year then- was an increase in
the star service of 1,215 routes, 5,877
miles in length of route and $196,061 in
annual expenditure. The mail messen
ger service showed an ' increase of 204
routes. 5,058 miles in length, and $177,
461 in cost. The railway postoffice
clerks were increased 385 and $411,610
in expenditure. Special facilities on
trunk lines showed a decrease in -ost of
$98,807. 4,105 new postoffices were es
tablished during the year, a greater
number than any previous year except
1890, when it was 4,427. The year
closed with 67,119 postoffices ' in the
United States. The largest increase in
number of new postoffice is the southern
states.- Rath bone suggests an amend
ment to the law, making the mailing of
green-goods circulars a continuing offense
from the time of mailing to tbe. place of
destination, so that tbe prosecution .can
take place at either point. A similar
enactment in regard to lotteries has
about swept- them out of existence in
two years, and he be'ieves tbe same
effect would follow in the cases of the
green-goods swindles.
. The Storm Seems Ow.
San Francisco, Dec. 1. The severe
and unusually prolonged storm which
has just been experienced in San Fran
cisco, and also throughout the state,
seems to have come to an end. The
wind and rain have ceased, and it is
clear and bright this morning. Tbe
work of repairing the damage wrought
by the gale is in progress in every di
rection. Reports received at railroad
headquarters this morning indicate that
trains are running on time. There are
a few minor washouts on tbe Northern
division, and one between Pleasanton
and Livermore, which is not serious.
It is raining south of Dunsmuir, and .
storming above that point. The wea
ther is reported to have cleared in the
Sierra Nevadasw
Struck The Lower Regions.
Kansas City, Dec. 1. A shaft ' has
been run into a subterranean fire at
Webb city in the zinc-mining region.
The hole, which is on the Clinton &
Wyatt property, is" 164 feet deep, and
has been growing hotter since a depth
of 20 feet was reached. The workmen
bad to quit today and flames burst
through. Various drifts run in this
part of the district have encountered
this strange heat, but today brought
tbe first outward manifestation. The
ore found in the mine is of the best
quality in all the zinc country. The
place now uncovered is 200 feet square.
It is so hot that the hardiest miner can
not stand it for a moment. The tem
perature is estimated at 600 deg. Fahren
heit. Florence Blythe Is the Heiress.
San Fkancisco, Dec. 1. The supreme
court has affirmed the decision of the
probate court, that Florence Blythe was
tbe illegitimate daughter of tbe deceased
millionaire, and is entitled to inherit hia
$4,000,000.
