NUMBER 30
PIERCE IS ELECTED
GOVERNOR OF OREGON
Compulsory School Bill Car
ried, But Single Tax and
Income Tax Lose.
Portland, Or. On the face of re
turns from over the state, Walter M.
Pierce has been elected governor of
Oregon over Ben W. Olcott by about
20,000 votes.
Olcott lost both in the state outside
of Multnomah county, considered as a
whole, and also in Multnomah.
He apparently has carried Benton,
Curry, Gilliam, Hood River, Klamath,
Lake, Washington and Wheeler, while
Pierce has all the other counties.

WALTER M. PIERCE
Democratic Candidate, Elected Gover
nor of Oregon.
Strong majorities were rolled up
against the republican candidate in
Multnomah, Coos, Douglas, Jackson,
Josephine, Linn, Lane, Umatilla all
the counties in which the larger towns
are located, except that returns from
Salem and Astoria, in Marion and
Clatsop counties, respectively, are
somewhat closely drawn between the
two candidates.
All other republican candidates for
state office have been elected.
The public school compulsory meas
ure has, it is i-ndicated by the returns,
been adopted by a majority perhaps
in excess of 10,000.
The exposition enabling amendment
voted on in the state at large is in
doubt. It apparently has a majority
in Multnomah county. In the state at
large the vote is almost even, but the
slight difference is against the bill.
Single tax has again been defeated,
this time two and one-half times to
one. The income tax amendment is
also defeated by better than two to
one.
MOORE IS 3400 IN LEAD
Republican Candidate for Governor in
Idaho is Winner.
Boise, Ida. The republicans have
captured the governorship of Idaho,
it was conceded early Wednesday
when Moore. G. O P. candidate was
reported to be leading Alexander, dein
ocrat. by more than 3400 votes. Moore
was gaining steadily in all the out
state counts. H. F. Samuels, progres
aive candidate, is coming up strong on
the two leaders and the fight may
develop into a contest between Moore
and Samuels Addison T. Smith, re
publican, was declared winner over
Whitaker, democrat, in the race for
congress.
California Remains Republican.
San Francisco. California definite
ly refused to join the movement to
ward democratic majorities noticeable
in eastern states, returns available on
Tuesday's election showed. A repub
lican governor, senator, full state
ticket and a congressional majority
have been elected, while the legisla
ture will be the same party.
NO SOCIAL WEARINESS

Do you complain of weariness or
ennui and lack of social advantage?
If so, move out to the East End
of the project and you'll have no
just grounds for such complaint. So
much is going on that the husbands
feel neglected. Last Friday a num
ber of the neighbors went to the
Kutzner home and spent the day in
pulling wool. (Now, don't misinter-
terpret that). Everyone had a jolly i
time and a great heap of wool wad'
pulled and carded and put aside to bA
