TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, OCTOBER 26, 1916.
REPUBLICANS MAKE
BIG GAINS IN OREGON
------ o------
All Other Parties and T°tal Registra
tion Show Heavy Losses in l
Years.
------o------
Salem, Ore., Oct. 20.—In the last
two years tlie Republican party tn
Oregon has gained 16,954, while the
Democratic and other parties have
lost adherents, according to the reg
istration figures lor the November
election on tile witii the Secretary of
State Olcott.
The Republican registration for the
coming election shows a total of 189-
937, as compared with 77,703 regis
tered Democrats, 1435 Progressives,
7150 Prohibitionists, 6991 Socialists
and 9551 of miscellaneous affiliation.
The total registration this year is
293,670, which is 12,060 below the
number listed on the registration
books two years ago.
Despite the increase in the number
of electors, the Republicans have
gained, a study of the figures show
ing that the gain almost exactly cor
responds to the loss in registration
experienced by the Prohibition and
Progressive parties.
This year the Prohibition registra
tion is 9318 below that of two years
ago, and the Progressives have fallen
off 6284, making a totol decrease for
these two parties of 15,665, as com
pared with the Republican gain in
registration of 15,954.
In 1914 the Democratic registration
was 78,981, while this year i it has
fallen 1188 below that figure. The
Socialist party had 9149 listed I two
years ago, but lacks 2158 of this
number now.
Only four counties show a decrease
in the number of Republicans regis
tered, these being Crook, Curry, Gill
iam, and Morrow. In Crook the de-
crease is duc to the fact that since
the last election Jefferson County
has been created from a portion of
Crook’s territory, thus taking away a
part of its registration. Where Jeffer
son still a part of Crook, the combin
ed figures show the Republicans have
gained.

The dog days, when excessive heat
la supposed to prevail, begin July 3,
according to the ancient reckoning, and
continue to Aug. 11. All sorts of tradi
tion« and superstitious are connected
with this period, and various date» are
also given.
In some sections the dog days are
■aid to begin on July 24 and to end on
Aug. 24, while still others attribute the
malevolent influence of the dog star
upon the earth to the period from Aug.
4 to Sept. 4, in accordance with the an
cient Egyptian reckoning.
As a matter of fact, the rising of the
dog star, Canto Majoris or Sirius, has
nothing to do with the affair nt all.
The rising of that star lias been so ac
celerated by the procession of the equi
noxes during the passage of more than
2,000 years that the corresponding con
ditions for the ancient dog days no
longer exist.
In ancient times in the latitudes of
the Mediterranean the i>eriod of great
est heat nearly corresponded with that
time in which the dog star rose at the
same time with the sun. To this con
junction all antiquity and all the later
followers of Judicial astrology attrib
uted a malignant influence.
Among the modern notions regarding
the dog days is the absurd belief that it
