THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF OILMAN!
COUNTY. OREGON.
We have been requested to ex
plain . how the electoral voters
of a state are chosen. Here it is:
Each state is entitled to as many
presidential electors as it has sena
tors and representatives in con
gress. Therefore, as far as the lat
ter part of the basis is concerned,
the number of electors is in propor
tion to the population of each state;
but the rule of one elector for each
United States senator has, of course,
no relation to population, as each
ftate is entitled to but two senators.
For every 173,900 inhabitants each
state is entitled to a representative.
The number of representatives in
congress is" usually increased in
making the reapportionment after
each census and the number of elec
tors increases with them. The ad
mission of new states also increases
the number of electors. . The elect
ors are chosen as the legislature of
each state directs. "Since 1860 it
has been the general practice to se
lect them by vote of the people
upon a general ticket, each elector
being chosen by thevote of his
whole state. An exception occur
red in Colorado in 187(5, when the
electors were chosen by the legisla
ture. Michigan is now the only
state that varies from the common
practice. A recent Act of the Mich
igan legislature directs that the vo
ters in each of the twelve congres
sional districts shall choose one
presidential elector. The state is
also divided into two electoral
districts, each comprising six con
gressional districts, and the voters
of each electoral district are to
choose one of the two additional
electors to which that state is enti
tled. Besides Oregon's two sena
tors there are two representatives,
therefore we are entitled to four
electoral voters who will help to
elect a president on November 8th.
The Tammany Society was or
ganized April 30, 1789, within a
fortnight after the inauguration of
Washington. It obtained a char-
. ter in 1805. It is composed of dem
ocrat, and is the most compact and
powerful political organization in
the country. Tammany has 9583
offices and jobs to give out in New
York city, with an annual pay-roll
of 101M8S7 Tf
three per cent of this is collected
for the society's campaign fund,
yielding about $250,000 this year
for election purposes from salaries
alone. These figures show why
Tammany does not care much who
runs the government, so long as it
can retain control of New York.
Its defection to any great extent
would beyond doubt seriously im-
peril the democratic presidential
ticket in New York". The leaders
of Tammany have renewed the
pledge which they gave long before
the convention met that they would
loyally support Cleveland should
he instead of Hill receive the nom
ination. Richard Crocker, the head
man of the organization, says:
"We will support Cleveland just as
heartily as we would have support
ed Hill. We are Democrats; and
when we are for a man, we are for
him. Why should any one doubt
our loyalty to the ticket?"
A great many persons , seem to
be in doubt as to the exact mean
ing of the Force bill. The force
bill was the so-called Federal elec
tions bill introduced in the Fifty
first Congress by Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts. . It provi
ded for the federal regulation of
elections, and would have deprived
the States of .. their right to hold
Congressional elections through
their own officers. It was regarded
as unconstitutional and a blow at
local self-government, and it was
finally defeated by the Democrats,
although it had been passed at the
first session by the House.
eon
ocr
Cleveland, should get together and
agree upon a program, in order to
relievo the fearful suspense of the
cvir'.ry. .

The coming presidential contest
will be one of the hottest on record.
Protection, free trade, reciprocity
and every' phase of the tariff' ques
tion and other national issues will
be discussed in every city, town
and hamlet from Maine to Califor
nia and from the northern bounda
ry of the republic to the sun-kissed
shores of the Gulf . of Mexico.
The whole country is aroused and
the interest is already at white
he&t. Now is the time to subscribe
for the Globe if vou want to keeo 1
posted on the reliable news. .
An extra census bulletin recently j
issued shows that the size of fami
lies has been steadily decreasing 1
for a number of years. In 1850 the
average size of families was 5.50
persons, 5.28 in 1860, 5.09 in 1870,
5.05 in 1880 and in 1890 it had got
ten down to 4.94.
'Doubtless the children of the
families of the two presidential can
didates are very interesting, but
not more so than millions of others
never heard of in the papers. By
all means let's give the children a
rest during this campaign.
The senate last week passed the
bill granting the world's fair at Chi
cago $500,000. An amendment
closing the fair on Sundays was
adopted, as was also one prohibit
ing the sale of intoxicating liquors.
