GREAT VICTORY

Conntj (ilves Him 40H Majority Urer
Rryan and is lint to Send Com

Eleotlon returns received bere by
wire and through the Oregon tan show
that laft baa swept tbe country and
carried tbe state by 25,000. In tbe
county be got 408 majority over Bry
an with a vote that was about 300
eboit of the registration. Hood Riv
er county was tbe first to send com
plete returns to tbe Kepublioao state
headquarters and also to tbe Portland
daily papers.
Election day throughout tbe coun
ty was a quiet one. 1'be greatest fall

the East Side precinct where tbe
vote was 100 lest than tbe legisla

extent by teb fact that the contractor

uew bridge tailed to get them done
in time for voters from there to con
veulently oast tbeir ballots.

In regard to tbe election through
out the United States tbe Oregonian
says:
Election returns from throughout
the United States received up to an
early hour this morning show the fol
(owing results:
William II. Taft, ot Ohio, has beeu
elected President with 295 votes se
cure and 28 doubtful.
Practioally do change is indicated
in tbe complexion of tbe National
House of Representatives.
The United States Senate will retain
Uh present Republican majority.
Governor Hughes nas been re-elect
ed in New York state by about 76,000
plurality.
Indiana bas gone lor J. art by irom
15,000 to 18,000 plurality.
Bryan "apparently has carried Ne
braska, although tbe Republicans still
claim tbe state.
Ohio returns bave been seriously
delayed owing to the immense size of
the ballot, but latt has oairied tbe
state by a majority ranging from 5U,-
000 to 75,000.
HOOD RIVER SPRAY M
Taft carried Jiew Vork City by
about 11,000 plurality, tbis being tbe
first time tbe city baa given its vote
to a Republican Presidential candi
date since 181X3, when McKiuley bad a
small plurality.
Taft received a greater plurality in
New York State than lioosevelt did
four years ago. Tbe adicationa
point to 202,000 (or left as against
175,000 for Koosevelt.
Hisgen, tbe Independence party
candidate for President, received
about 28,000 votes In Greater New
York.
Tbe indications are that Democratic
Governors bave been elected in sevei
al of tbe Middle Western states that
bave given tbeir presidential vote for
Taft.
Taft exoeeded Roosevelt's plurality
tn New Jersey and Massaohustets, as
well ai in New York.
The Republican plurality fell off
heavily In tbe Middle West in a man
ner thoroughly surprising to tbe Re
publican managers.
Speaker Cannon has been re-eletoed
by bis usua majority. Representa
tive Payne, of New York, and Repre
sentative Dalzell, of Pennsylvania,
have beeu ie-elected and tbe house of
Representatives will probably con
tinue under ita old regime. Mr.
Payne will bave charge of the ne tar
ift bill in tbe extra session which Mr.
latt will call Immediately after Maiob
4, next.
Missouri baa returuedto the "Solid
South" on tbe presidential ticket and
elected Cowherd, Democrat, aa its
governor.
In tbe state Taft win Oregona's
four eleotoial votes by between 24.000
and 25,000 aooording to incomplete
returns from 33 counties and complete
returns from Hood River county. He
ranging from 100 in Baker .to 8000 in
Multnomah. Tba state vote stands
near 05,000 for Taft and 40,000 tor
Bryan, lu tbe presidential election
four years ago, Oregon gave Roosevelt
42,934 plurality, tbe vote for Koose
velt being 00,455 and for Parker, 17,
521. ' Socialists, Prohibitionists and
Independents palled yesterday per
haps 10,000 votes in the state. The
whole vote was close to 115,000. The
registration prior to tbe election was
133,178, of which 80,390 was Republi
can and 32,263 was Democratio.
To oast Oiegon'a four rotes for Taft
tbe state has chosen the Republican
candidates tor presidential electors
R. K. Butler, ot Uilliam county; J.
1). Lee, ot Multnomah; A. 0. Mars
ters, of Douglao, and Frauk J. Miller,
of Liun.
Closest of the counties Is Baker,
which taft carries by about 100 votes.
In that county DeniooraU mads tbeir
st longest campalyu and thought it
secure for Bryan. Other ocuntiel
that disappoint them are Linn, which
goes for Talt by between 350 and 400,
and Jaokaon by 400.
Outside Multnomah, raft's lead is
10,000, his strongest counties being
Marion, 1400 plurality; Lane, 1300;
Wasnlugton, 120U; Uuiatiilu, between
850 and 1000, and Douglas, 1000.
In Portland Taft's vote is not quiet
2 to 1. On tbe west side bis vote
more than doubles Bryan's, but on
the east side bis gait was a little bet
ter than l'a to 1. Dry it n carries only
two Multuomab preomots 74 and 75
in Alhina, where are many longshore
men "otes.
Taft's 24,000 or 25,000 plurality is a
big surpiise to tbe betting fraternity.
Mauy wagers were made that tbe Re
publican lead would not exceed 15,000.
SUBSCRIBERS TO ROAD

AN UFACTTK 1 N(J COMPANY'S PLANT, WHICH WILL
SOON BE IN OPERATION.
BIG SPRAY PLANT
TO BEGIN WORK
CAPACITY OF 8,000 GALS. DAILY
Hill Manufacture Magara Lime and
Sulphur and Is Important Addition
to Hood RlTer s Industrie. .
Hood River will soon have new
industry in operaton that will repre
sent approximately an investment of
25,000. The new enterprise is the
lime and sulphur spray manufacturing
plant of tbe Hood River Spray Man
ufacturing Co., and is situated , on a
spur ot the Mt. Hood Railroad a short
distance north ot tbe electrio light
power bouse. Tbe plant is one of sev
eral which is owned by the stockhold
ers of tbe company at Hood River,
tbe Medford Spray Manufacturing
Company aud the Oregon Gas and
Spray Company of Portland. Tbe
lime and sulphur solution which will
be manufactured is that made from
the formula of the Oregon Gas and
Spray Company, known as the Niag
ara Lime and Sulphur Spray, and
which has given such good results
here aud wherever it has been used.
In fact lime and sulphur is becoming
recognized ss probably tbe most im
portant and effective solution for
spraying tiuit trees for most of the
diseases with which they become
art ec ted and in many p luces it has
been adopted as a summer aa well as
a winter spray.
The new plant at Ilood River when
oompleted will be the largest in tbe
Northwest aud will have a manufac
turing capacity of one oarload dally,
the latter consisting of eighty 50 gal
lon barrels. Tbe big steel cooking
tank will hold 8,000 gallons of tbe
mixture while it la being compounded
and iu addition there are two im
mense wooden receiving tanks with a
capaoity of 8,000 gallons each, giving a
storage capaoity or iu,wu gallons or
the Quished product. It is from these
that the lime aud sulphur solution ia
barrelled and sent on its way to help
insure to the orohardist healthy
trees and a crop ot apples that will be
free from scab and fungus.
In tbe ereotion of; the Hood River
plant tbe stockholders of tbe uew en
terprise have not spared money or
time in securing conditions that will
produce the fceBt results. While the
building and apparatus has cost many
thousands of dollars they have in ad
dition spent many more in experi
ments, in obtaining tbe advice ot ex
perts in chemistry and in insuring
oonditlons that will produce the max
imum result iu every particular while
the solution is being made and also
when it is leady for use and finally
turned over to the fruit grower for
application.
-Including the loading platforms
aud other structures uecessary tbe
new establishment ocoupios spaoe
120x70 feet. In the furnaoe room an
Immense boiler of 70 horsepower fur
nishes the heavy steam pressure nec
essary to thoroughly cook the spray
and furnish power for the engine
which operates the agitator, a ma
chine for stirring the solution while
It is being fused in the cooking tank.
Ibe engine also operates three
pumps and a large elevator whioh runs
from tbe top floor to the loading plat
form. Water for the enormous amount of
solution whioh the plant can manu
facture daily is furnished from an ar
tesian well sunk below tbe level of tbe
Ilood liver nearby and is filtered
through a thick deposit of sand before
it is pumped iuto tbe 5,000 gallon
water tank elevated ao as to furnish
a gravity system to all parts ot the
building. Tbe connections are of
the latest and most approved type,
qulok acting valves being supplied
and ao intricate aytem ot pumps are
airanged ao that the contents ot any
of tbe tanks can be drawn from one
to another as tbe exigenoiea of tbe
work of handling the outptut may re
quire. On tbe top floor are to be
found tbe lime and sulphur mixing
machines run at a high rate of speed.
In these the compound is thoroughly
amalgamated before it is placed in
the oooking tank, the top of whioh
ia on a level with tbe floor. In case
ot a breakdown of the engine or
pumps an arrangement has also been
made for syphoning tbe supply of
water to tbe various parts of the ap
paratus. The new plant has convenient ship
ping facilities both locally and long
distance. Over tbe Mt. Hood railroad
it can ship its products by tbe oar
load iuto the east side apple growing
district where It can easily be distrib
uted by short hauls. Tbe newly de-
