The capitol at Salem is now equipped with a hydraulic passenger and freight elevator. Following are the official returns o the vote ot Virginia: Cleveland, 151,977; Harrison, 150,442; Cleveland's majority, 1,535. The vote in 1884 was: Cleveland, 145,497; Blaine, 139,356; to tal, 284,853; a Democratic loss of 4,800. Says the Chicago Times, Democrat, "within the next fonr years the whole aspect of the field will be changed. New York will lose its relative im portance in the electoral college. The western states will determine the con test. For some years yet speculation upon the attitude and the leadership of parties in 1892 willbe mere groping in the dark." At the meeting of the woman suf frage association in Cincinnati on the 21st inst, a resolution was adopted to petition state legislatures to grant women state, municipal and national suffrage, and to petition congress to submit a constitutional amendment to enfranchise women. Also a resolu tion condemning the recent decision on woman suffrage by the supreme court of "Washington territory as un sound in law and without foundation in justice. The 'official count- in California shows the election of DeHaven in the first, Biggs in the second, McKenna in the third, Horrow in the fourth and Van Dever in the sixth are elected, while the official returns in the fifth district are not complete. In tho leg islature the Bepublicans have sixteen in the senate, and the Democrats twenty-two, with a vacancy in the twelfth district, caused by tho death of Chandler, Republican. In tho assembly the Bepublicans have thirty nine, and the Democrats forty-one; a Democratic majority on joint ballot of eight . The official returns for Klamath and Tillamook counties, of this state, have not yet been received. There has been a falling off in the vote of the eastern Oregon and coast counties on account of neglect, that the first promises of a greatly increased vote in the state have not been made good. The total vote of the state will be a little less than 62,000, and Harrison's plurality will be about 6,800, or about 609 less than Hermann's plurality last June. The prohibition vote so far as reported is 1,417, and the labor vote 254. These latter figures will proba bly not be much increased by tho returns yet to be received. -- I, m m The official canvass of New York city was completed Tuesday. The Republican electoral ticket received 106,925, and that of the Democratic party 162,738 votes. The prohibition electors had 1,125, union labor ticket 178, and tho socialist ticket 1,772. In the entire ballots of the city GCC votes were defective out of 272,678 cast. Out of 272,000 cast in the city for governor, David B. HilL Dem., re ceived 168,454, Warner Miller, Bep., 99,352, and W. M. Jones, Pro., 1,227. The total Democratic vote cat in the mayorality contest was l&Vfli), of which Grant, Tammany, had 111,111, and Hewitt, county Dem., 71,ii70. The Bepublicans gave Erhart, for ma or, 73,027. Gen. Haerison has selected for his private secretary Elijah "W- nalford, managing editor of the Jndianapolis Journal. "He came from England when a child and began his paper ca reer as reporter on the Indianapolis Journal twenty-five years ago, and rose in a few years, through succes sive promotions, to the managing ed itorship. He was for a time manag ing editor of the Chicago Inter-Ocean in its first years. Returning to Indi anapolis, he resumed the managing editorship of the Journal. He was, for a few years, private secretary to the late senator Morton. The new private secretary is married, and has one child, a daughter ot 17. He is an elder brother ot A. J.

Ever since the incorporation of the Astoria Btfilding and Loan Associa tion, nineteen months ago, it has been evident that its projectors pos sessed sound business sense. The association immediately upon its establishment proved to be a most popular and successful scheme for investment and improvement in city property, and the demand for stock was so great that four series of the stock were issued in rapid succession and it became evident that in order to aocommodate the increased de mand for its stock it would be neces sary to increase the capital. Yesterday the directors of the asso ciation filed supplementary articles of incorporation in the county clerk's office increasing the capital stock of the association from S400.000 to 800,000, divided into 4,000 shares of a par value of S200 each. Some of the successful business men of the city are manaeincr the affaire of the association and under their supervision it will, no donbt, in the future as in tho past prove a pop ular means of investment and a great aid to many desiring to improve their city property.
