VOTES OF NEWCOMERS.
In working out the election equations 1
in uresen mis year, mere was one un
known quantity, and that was the char-
acter of the vote to be cast by Immigra
tion Into .the state.
: 'An analysis of th situation eliminating
..immigration from ih moment assured
Success for Geo. E. Chamberlain and R.
D. Inman for these reasons;
First, a. united Democracy.
Second,, a divided Republican party.
"Third, Th personal attributes and pop

These wer and are suclfltent to win
th victory, provided th immigration

. acter to'Preolud suooess. No on can
ecurately figure on the immigration Vote.
. Th newcomers are from so many states
; and hav been here so short a time
that to politicians have not bean able
intelligently to classify them. Hence,
.jr. mere was one element of uncertainty
and it is th chief question as to the elee-
, lion of Chamberlain and Inman.
; The Journal believ that both Cham-
2 berlain and Inman will be elected, hew-
iver, upon th theory that th immigra
tion came from Democratic and Republl-
, ran states in the East and South and that
srebabjy they approximate an equal di
vision as to their party affiliations. 8

It appears to' b an Indubitable fact that
thero are persons' who hav about them
some ouality that is-deadly to' flowers. 'A
florist" said ths -other dayi Pro.uently
a- man -will worn to' m-and -complain!
'Look, here, -I paid you ft yostwrday for
-a bunoh Of Violets and you said they had
Just been plucked and would llva nearly
a week." Well, mywlf WOr them In
! her corsage last .night and . they were
dead Uils morning.' . Thero Is nothing tor
ms tovroply to the'man except that his
wife must on of tbpse whose conuc
is injurious to nowers. it be pooa-nooh
this f. am .able, perhaps, ' to recall the
name of some lady" - who bought, violets
at tho same time and from tb. same lot
as ha, and t can. call her up on th
telephone, and she tells us how they are
still . fresh, .though she,' too. wore them
thai evening before. My clerks corrobo
rate mi Also, and tell of, numerous cases
In their experience where a few hours in
the hair or on the corsage of a woman
hav killed the hardiest flowers. Indeed,
experiment hav been madein this mas
ter and 1 know personallv one tall, Ro
bust and beautiful girl who will net hav
about Hor a violet or a rose, because she
knows her contact means death to It."
