The Dalle, Oregon. TUESDAY, . NOVEMBER 5. 1893 TODAY'S ELECTIONS. The American people are voting to day. Throughout the eastern portion of the country, and in some western states, the great battle is being waged, the re salt of which cannot but have a great effect npon the presidential contest of 1896. Maryland and Kentucky are the states where the greatest interest is cen tered, because these states, generally so reliable for democratic majorities, are expected to overthrow the long-con-tinned order of things, and hopes are held that the republicans may triumph in both of them. In Massachusetts the citizens will vote for governor and a complete state ticket. In New York the voting is confined to ballots for sec retary of state, attorney-general, treas urer and judges for the supreme courts. New Jersey will elect a governor, six members of the senate and the entire assembly of sixty members. Pennsyl vania has an off year. In Maryland the future of Arthur P.Gorman, for years the political boss of the state, and one of the most skilled manipulators, de pends upon the result of today's vote. The people of Kentucky will elect state officers, one-half the senate and an en tire house of representatives. The in- j coming legislature will eject a successor to Senator Blackburn. In Mississippi state, county and municipal officers, from governor to constable, are to be elected. The election in the state of Ohio is one of the most important. State officers and a legislature are to be elected, while the. majorities will have an effect in determining the presidential nomination next year. The Utah elec tion will bo the first ever held for state officers and two United States senators depend upon the result. Elections", though not so important ones, will be held in Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and Virginia. While the situation is not certain enough to prophesy results, the republicans are confident of success in those states where republican victory is possible. The majorities cannot be ex pected to be as large as those of a year aco. but the decrease should not be great. Should any increase in republi can majorities be found it will not be worth while for the democrats to nom inate a presidential ticket in '96. other, running from the officials in one C place into the arms of officers in another, j Corbett and Fitzsimmons and their crowd of hangers-on have scattered and gone. And Fitzsimmons on whom but a short while ago the eyes of the world were focused was compelled to give a sparring expedition in order to raise funds sufficient to enable him leaving Hot Springs. There being no farther use for these distinguished gentlemen in ; the nncrilistic arena, they will have to go to New York and enter politics. There is nothing that helps a city, countv or state like getting out oi aeoi and keeping out. The decrease : Wasco's debt for the past six months is attracting attention from abroad, aa the following from the Oregonian showB "Waeco county joins in the general lm nrovement of fiscal administration. As compared with the statement published last March, the semi-annual statement shows a decrease in the county's debt of over $26,000. County warrants are now selling at a premium.

His wit was of the purest kind, while he possessed a power of pathetic writing which rivalled the best produc tions of James Whitcomb Kiley. He was in the prime of life, and had before him years of usefulness to the thousands to whom his writings brought good cheer. His death at the age of 45 strengthens the force of the oft-quoted saying that "Death loves a shining mark." There will not be two Thanksgiving proclamations in Oregon this year.

In accordance with time honored cus tom President Cleveland has issued a proclamation setting forth Thursday, Nov. 23 as a day of Thanksgiving This day is one which the people of this great country cannot observe too devoutedly" and the president'sprocla mation should be read and pondered over by every lover ot our glorions country. It reads as follows : "The constant goodness and forebear- of the Almighty 'God which has been vouchsafed'the American people during the year just passed call for their sincere acknowledgement of devout gratitude To the end therefore, that we may with thankful hearts unite in extolling the loving care of our Heavenly Father, I Grover Cleveland, president of the United States, do hereby appoint and set apart Thursday, the 28th day of the present month, of November, as a day of thanksgiving and prayer, to be kept and observed by all our people. On that day let us forego our usual oc cupations, and in our accustomed places worship and join in rendering thanks to the giver of every good and perfect gift, for the bounteous returns that have re warded our labors in the fields and in the busy marts of trade ; for the peace and order that prevailed throughout the land ; for our protection from pestilence and dire calamity, and for other bless ings that have been showered upon us from open hands, and with our thanks giving let us humbly beseech the Lord to so incline our people nnto Him that He will not leave us or forsake us as a nation, but will continue to bless us with -his mercy and protecting care, guiding us in the path of national pros perity and happiness, endowing us with rectitude and virtue, and keeping alive within us a patriotic love for the tree in stitutions which have been given us as our national heritage and let us also on the day of our thanksgiving especially remember the poor and the needy, and by deeds of charity let us show our gratitude." Below is published the last poem wlttin by Eugene Fields, whose death is announced in today 8 aispaicnes. The poem was first published in the October number of the Laaies Home Journal. The title is the Dream-Ship : When the world ii fast asleep, Along the midnight skies As though it were a wandering cloud The ghostly Dream-Ship tiles. An angel stands at the Dream-Ship's helm, An ancrel stands at the nrow. And an angel stands at the Dream-Ship's side W ith a rue-wremn on her Drow. The other angels, silver-crowned, Pilot and helmsman are, And the angel with the wreath of rue Toseeth the dream ufur. The dreams they fall on rich and poor, They fall oti young and old: And some ate -ueams of wjverty, And some arc dreams oi gold. And some are dreams that thrill with Joy, And some that melt to tears. Some are dreams of the dawn of love, And some of the old dead years. On rich and poor alike they fall, Alike on young and old, Bringing to slumbering eaitb their joys An i sorrows manifold. The friendless youth in them shall do The rUeds of mightv men. And drooping age hhall feel the grace Of buoyant youth again. The king shall be a beggarman The pauper be a king In that revenge or recompense The Dream-ahip dreams do bring. So ever downward float the dreams That ate for all and me, And there is neer mortal man Can solve that myttery. But ever onward in Its course Along the haunted skies As though it were a '!lmd astray The ghostly Dream-ship flies. Two angels with their silver crowns Pilot and helmsman are. And au angel with a wreath of rue Tosseth the dreams ufa1". JOS. T. PETERS & CO., -DEALERS IN- BUILDINC : MATERIALS -AKD- Telephone IKTo. 25. The Germania- STUBLING & WILLIAMS, Props.
