George Chorus concert at the opera house to-night. Go and hear tu?m. Those dear, delightful, discordant bells tolled the knell of prohibition yesterday. Prohibition is swept back to grass hopper Kansas by the majestic tide of the Pacific. The late Fort Canby garrison, now at the Presidio, will have to "double up" till new quarters can be built. The Columbia is due this morning. J. Strauss and wife and Miss Piu schower, are among the passengers. There's a heap of common horse sense in Oregon, and about as much to the square inch in Astoria as any other part of the state. To tho 4th iust.. 170,019 cases Alas ka salmon had been received at San Francisco. To the same date last year 120,700 cases had been received. It is thought that the state tax levy for this year will bo a heavy one, probably twice as much as last year. Yesterday's election entailed quite an expense on the taxpayers of the state. Tho New York World says, and other papers approve it by quoting the assertion, that Mrs. Lincoln is among the living wives of ex-presidents. That estimable lady died about two years ago. The president of the llascne club says there will be an election of ofli cers next Saturday, and he wants a full attendance. He doesn't want any criminations or recriminations; moral reform, solely. The Western Amateur baud took advantage of a lull in tho storm last nighty and were out in force playing fine music. They serenaded Mr." and Mrs. F. H. Surprenant, Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Fox, and Major Estes and then wont home. The American ship Olice iS. South ard now lying here, has been bought by Messrs.

There was a quiet little gathering at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Meglerlast evening, the occasion being the marriage of Miss Mary M. Jewett and Mr. Frank II. Surprenant, both well known residents of this city and general favorites. Tim As toriak extends its heartiest congrat ulations to the newly wedded pair and its best wishes for a lifetime of unolloyed happiness and prosperity. Miisic and Drama, commenting upon "The Black Flag,"' with which Edwin Thorne will open at Ross' opera house next Thursday night. Of Edwin Thorne as Harry Glyndon it is unnecessary to speak at length, for he plays the part so perfectly in all respects that it wQuld be folly to hunt for flaws. After seeing "Tho Black Flag," the crowded condition of the California and tho vociferous applause Thorne received, a lady re marked that her faith in the critics of the dailies was forever gone." 6irl Wauled To do general housework in a small family.

Considering the im portance of tho election and the deep public interests in tho contest, it passed off very quietly. So far as known no disturbance occurred anvwhero. The sa loons closed last night at luidnight. and remained so until this evening. Not a single drunken man was seen to-day. The auu-prouiimionists iiau most thorough ly canvassed tho stato and had a perfoct organization. Jn their work at tho poll3 nicy v.ert uuiivu ;mu ueusrimiieu. and effective. Tho prohibitionists seemed to have i'. organization and all effects were made without concert. The disjwtches indicate that in many sections they practically abandoned all hope earlv in the day. Notwithstanding that a heavy rain prevailed during the most of the day, the vote was large everywhere. The total vote cast in East Portland was 1.107; majority for prohibi tion :G1. Albina will give a majority of 100 against prohibition. It is estimated that tho majority for prohibition in the county outside of Portland is ."00. Tho total majority in Multnomah aeainst the amendment will be nrobablv 4,S00. IATEST TliOM THE STATU. Portlaxd, Nov. 0, 1 a. ii. Ketunis from tho stato aro coming in slowly. The best estimates from "Wasco county cive a ma jority against the prohibition amend ment of nearly G0U. Jackson county will give about -IK) against prohibition The estimated majority in Marion coun ty is from I) to 1.000 against prolnbi tion. The latest returns from Linn and Polk counties show a majorily in favor of pro hibition; but tho majorities are not ob tained. It is thought that two other counties in the stato will give small ma jorities in favor of the amendment. Lane county, it is estimated, will give 500 majority against prohibition. Tho returns aro coming in very scatter ing, but the best estimates show that the amendment is defeated in tho stato by not less than seven thousand. The total vote cast in Portland was 7, 100. The total majority in the city against prohibition is 4,77i; total major ity in Portland, East Portlaud and Al bina against tho amendment is 5,1GS. It is estimated that tho majority against prohibition in the state outside of this county will bo from 1,500 to 2,000. It is impossible to determine with cer tainty with regard to the other amend ments. Tho election amendment will probably be carried by a small majority. Strong indications aro that tho one in creasing tho salaries will be badly de feated. tiiu vtnv latest. Poetlaxd, Nov. !, :lJ0, a. si. Tho latest rotnrns show a small gain in eastern Oregon which will probably como down with not less than one thousand against prohibition. It is estimated that the western and southern parts of tho state will have about an equal majority. Tho returns from "Washington county indicate that it will give not less than ono hundred majority against the amendment. Thus far tho returns from various counties outside Linn and Polk, show majorities against prohibition. Wasco, Marion, Jackson and Lane counties give decided majorities against prohibition. Iteturns from all other sections indi cate that tho election has been close. However, tho latest estimates do not ma terially change tho results in the state before given. It now appears that the amendment in regard to tho election is probably de feated. A Salem dispaich just received shows a reduction of 500 votes there against that amendment. Tho defeat of both amendments was generally conceded up to half past two. The returns are so fragmentary that it is impossible to givo definite majorities by counties. BUT nEBES SOME IATEU STILT.. Ni:w Yobk City, Nov. 9., S a. m. lie turns show the defeat of Col. Fred Grant for secretary of the state. The Herald estimates that Fred Cook's majaritv will be not less than 50,000. The latest returns from Iowa show large Democratic gains. The result is still in doubt. .Returns from 55 city precincts in New York indicate the election of Fellows, tho Democratic machine candidnto for prosecuting attorney over Nicoll, tho candidate of Republican and citizens. This is tiken as an illustration of the strength of tho Democratic machine. The Henry George vote is surprisingly small. THE COUNTY VOTE. UPPElt ASTOBIA. Yes... 5 Yes... 41 Yes...

Tho rain had fallen in torrents during the night and everything was wet and sodden. As the morning wore on there was a clear ing up and by nine o'clock the rain had dwindled to a gentle drizzle of line mist. At tho several polling places through tho city all was activity. Tho ladies wero out in force, their headquarters bright with banners, mottoes, and tran sparencies and were not tho least in their zeal in securing votes, ineir ap pearance was the first of the kind in public and attracted considerable atten tion and furnished considerable com ment, favorable and unfavorable. The polls wero promptly open and the work of voting began. In front of each voting place was the usual knot of by standers, some carrying tickets, others using persuasion and argument, and others looking rather uisappomtea mat nothing was happening of special interest. The church bells rang at frequent in tervals, though just what good they did or how they influenced votes is not given the carnal mind to perceive. They cer tainly made racket enough and greatly disturbed everyone within the sound of their jangle. All manner of vehicles covered with all manner of devices dashed up and down carrying American sovereigns to vote for or against the amendments. The second and third repositions aroused little attention; everything was centered on tho prohibition question, and no ono put a vote in with out knowing just what he was doing. mere was nut nuie cuaiienging or ex citement, and generally tho voter walked quietly up, put in his vote, asked tho tally clerk, perhaps, how the vote stood, and went away. About one o'clock rain again began falling, tho church bells tolled mourn fully, and the aspect of things was not what might be called gay. The ladies' headquarters was well patronized by those who foltin need of refreshments, and their thoughtfulness was duly ap preciated. At six the polls closed and at 7:30 re turns began coming in. A bulletin board was rigged in front of Alex. Campbell'? and as fast as returns were announced were bulletined in big figures. The interest manifested was great and crowds stood in tho mud and rain to get a sight at the latest figures. Following is tho vote of the city: In each summary the prohibition amend ment is designated as "No. One;"' the amendment to salaries of stato officers as "No Two," and tho amendment to time of holding general elections, as "No. Three."

Also all your breathing machinery. Very won derful machinery it is. Not only tho larger air-passages, but the thousands of little tubes and cavities leading from them. When these are clogged and choked with matter which ought not to be there, j'our lungs caunot half do thoir j work. And what they do they can not do well. Call it cold, cough, croup, pneumo nia, catarrh, consumption or any of the family of throat and nose and head and lung obstructions, all are bad. All ought to be got rid of.
