Tho oloction of mambors of the now relohstng is tak ing placo today, and it Is expected that tho result of tho polling will bo nnnouncud tomorrow ulgiit, or on Monday morning nt tho latost. Qront oxcltomont prevails and it Ih cortnln that owlnz to tho Btrnined relntloiH oxlntlng between tho Emporor and cortaln sections of tho jieoplo tho polling will bo tho heaviest In tho history of the country. Thero Is no doubt that tho prospects for Germany thlB yonr nro by no means vory bright, as It has boon publicly as serted during the commencement of tho prosont campaign thnt tho om plro wn3 now nt tho zonlth of her prosont cyclo of prosperity. How this year will materialize depends largely upon tho elections, and tho mutual nttitudo of the government and the rolchstag to ono another. If tho gov ernment does not make considerable concessions to the popular desire for gonulno constitutional rule, then tho wldoly provalont pouslmlsm duo to tho meat famine, the all round rise in prices, notably of raw materials, and tho necessaries of life, and wear iness of the nlmost frantic "WoltpoJ ltlk" of the kaiser, with Its momen tary demands and sacrifices for tho fleet and colonies, will placo it bo yond the powor of tho people to en duro the chancellor's policy of fair words and light phrases. All these things may easily bring about nn In ternal situation of extreme gravity and even danger to tho throne. Nothing, however, of oven tho quasi proph'etlc kind can bo Buid of tho general prospects of the omplro for 1907 until the results of tho elec tions, aro announced. Amongst statesmen of all shades of opinion tho political fortunes of the Imporlal Chancelolr Prlnco Von Buolow, nro regarded to bo In Jeopaf"dyowlng to his advlco to the emperor to dissolve tho rolchstag on December 13th. It Is said by tho chancellor by hla ac tion took his political llfo In his bands. In doing ho, however, ho was under tho Inspiration that comes of taking great risks, for, when mak ing hla now famous announcement, ho BDoko, aa ono transformed, his manner being wholly different from Tho Capital Journal Ib recolving scores of letera dally on tho subject of n railroad commission, a demur rage law and tho freo locks bill. The latter meets with universal approval in Western Oregon, whllo tho BontJ mont Is almost aa Btrongly In favor of a Btlft demurrngo law, with pen alties and powor to bo placed In thw hnnds of the law ofllcorB of tho state to bring actions to enforce ponaltlos for failure to furnish cars. Thu son tlmcnt on tho question of a rnllroatl commission Is vory much divided, and some of tho statements will sur prise loglslntors, coming ns thoy do from the most Intelligent farmers, shippers and buslnoss mon of thu Wostorn Orogon counties. Antl-Unitt Fight Sustained. Tho Capital Journal's anti-graft light Is warmly BUHtnlncd, and scores of new subscribers nro com ing in dally, all volunteering porson al and financial support of this paper In Its course The pcoplo nro pre parod to carry tholr campnlgii against useless oxponso to thu court of last rosort, tho ballot box, and the will not bo satisfied with hold ing up any extravagant appropria tion, but thoy will tnko tho roferon duin on such hills, nnd wngo a ro lontlcss campaign. Tho clerkship graft is growing day by day, nnd tho prosont plan is to not havo clerks Bworn In until later in tho session, bo that nowBpapors may not got hold of the nnmofl to publish. l'nlrn and Normal Schoolx. Full-pago ndvertlRqmonts of tho Seattle-Yukon exposition, appearing lu mnny of tho stnto import), may cause an InvcHtlgntlon tjf tho meth ods employed to swoirtlint appropri ation. It Is admitted that thoro should be an appropriation of a sum Bufllclcnt to havo a creditable- expo sition at Scnttlo. but It should bo no larger than wns appropriated by Washington for tho exhibit nt Port land. Thoro Is a gonornl sontlmont ngnlust a largo appropriation for tho Jamestown exposition. Out of courtesy to tho governor something may bo glvon, but to throw awny any thing llko $05,000 to $75,000, for that is what It would nmouut to, la not being Boriously considered, Sen ator Smith, of Umatilla, scoured ref erence of a normal school appropria tion bill from tho commlttoo of ways and means to tho commlttco on cdu cation, which Is snid to bo favorable Tho senate ways and means commit teo Is said to bo unfavorable to tho unrostrnlnod normal school graft. Watch the Printing. Stato Prlntor Dunlwny promised tho pooplo thoro should bo no con structive monsuroments tb run up big bills against tho stnto in his de partment. Attention Is cnllod tb short bills that aro startod on one pngo and a fow lines run ovor onto tho noxt pngo. This Ib not only vory Inconvonlont to tho InwmnkorB, but doubles tho oxponso of tho pros work, nnd runs an unuecoBBary bill on the Btnto.

Houso bill No. 00 hau 10 linos on tho first parte, 28 on the noxt, 27 lines on the third pngo and' five linos on the fourth pngo. It could na well nil bo printed on throe. pages. In tho 'snmo wny Nos. 72 and 77 could bo prlntod on ono pngo onoh, but n fow linos nro run ovor to mako double proas vyork. v anything thnt tho rolchstag hnd ovor soon slnco lie ontorod polltianl llfo Indeed ovoryono noticod with what oxtrnordlnnry animus ho roponlod tho vlow that he was n moro Instrti mont for carrying out tho omporor't will. At proHont Von Huolow nu ll on r to feel thnt ho will remain In ofllco a few years longor, nnd, though ho has mado dotormlnod efforts slnco tho dissolution of tho rolchstng to do something, to secure tho reputation of bolng a bold, Indopondont states man, ho has Blgually failed, for ovon now it call bo soon that tho socialists, as tho only conslBtont party In oppo sition aro making remnrkablo hend way during tho romnrkablo dlHputo" botween tho othor pnrtlos. There Is almost universal expectation that tho Boclullsta will win heavily, and that tho CntholloB, whom tho government dlsllkoB, will ulinply mnko way for tho socialists, whom tho government dosplsos. It Is now rumored thnt tho chancellor will constdor a gov ernment dofeat at tho polls tanta mount to his own political death warrant, and would summarily ab dicate tho chancellorship. 8I7LTAX LOHKH RIIIIV IlebeN In .Morocco Win u Great Victory.
