THE campaign Is over, and to morrow the voters representing nearly one hundred million peo ple will caat their ballots. When The Capital Journal Is Issued tomorrow, though the results will not be known hero, nor the polls closed on the coast, the election will be settled, for by that time the vote east of the Miss issippi will have been cast, and the polls closed, and that vote will prac tically settle the result. With the wide breach In the Republican party, caused by the Roosevelt wing detach ing itself, tho Democratic situation Is far more hopeful than usual. In fact, the dispatches yesterday from all parts of tho country, as published in tho Oregonlnn, Indicated Hint the elec tion of Wilson is a practical certain ty. As a matter of fact, this result has been forseen by those In touch with tho political situation, ever since Ri:osevelt. became a factor In the fight. With him out of It, tho fight might still be close, for Taft, laying aside any question of merit or demerit as a president, or any criticism of his of ficial life, is not a good vole-getter. Ho is that typo of man who does not havo the faculty of getting In touch with tho ninRses. That Is where he and Roosevelt are at tho opposite ends of tho political teeter board. History will show that Taft. has made a very good president, conservative and firm, but ho Is not a "lime light er," and does not understand the art of advertising. Roosevelt Is not of that type, and henco will take from Taft that element, that likes the spec tacular, and in America It is a large one. So largo Is It, that the unbiased man, laying political beliefs and prejudices aside, ran see but one pos sible result In tomorrow's election, n ml that is a sweeping Democratic victory, and tho election of Wilson. Indeed tho situation Indicates that not only will Wilson bo elected, but he will probably have a larger elec I THE OPEN FORUM Tho Capital Journal Invites pub lic discussion In this department Let both sides of all matters be fully brought out It Is not the purpose of this newspaper to do the thinking for its readers, 4 Pniilnnr Replies. Editor Journal: In a recent Journal, R. A. Harris, signing himself "printing expert:' though always unsuccessful In tho printing business, gives a list of ten politicians who, in angling for the la bor vole, have proceeded to say that Harris' "closed shop" printing bill Is nil right. That settles It, of course; men who know something- of printing are proper advisers about printing. Then Mr. Harris proceeds to reflect upon a miiulier of business men of Portland, all In tho printing business, because they ndvlso tho voters of Ore gon as follows: "The initiative printing law Is an attempt to have Oregon adopt a meth od of doing public printing that sur renders control of the state's printing to a labor union's executive council at Indianapolis. U Is a closed-shop bill of most drastic type. "I'nder tho proposed system tho state would buy nnd maintain n plant, meet all expenses, biro the friends nnd boosters of politicians at salaries en 'time," making tho public printing tho football of labor agitators and politicians, while taxpeyers would foot the bills. "Tho measure has not one meritori ous feature. It should be overwhelm ingly beaten." Tho 27 signers of tho above state ment embrace the well-known prlnt liiU houses of Portland. The signers of that statement are Mann & Stewart. l.lncoln-McIx-od Co., Kubll-Mlller Co , V. W. Unites & Co., Portland Linotyp ing Co.. Chausse-rruillioiiime Co., Ir-wln-llodson Co., Class & Prudhomme Co..

The presidential question seems settled, but tomorrow there are oth ers to be voted upon that In some re spects are more Important than the election of a president The election of congressmen for one, and the elec tion of state legislatures In tlioo states where V. S. senators are to be elected for another. If these are also swept lntot the Democratic ranks, so that the president and both senate and the lower house should be of the same political faith, and that Demo cratic, there will bo something do ing in Washington, This, however, Is not probable, for the senate, at least, will probably remain Republican, nnd so prevent any radical changes In the policies of government. However, It is Idle speculation, for tomorrow night we shall know, nnd The Capital Journal will do Its part towards giving the public information by throwing tho returns on a screen on tho front of the Marlon Hotel, so soon as they begin to come In, and through the night, until results are known. Oregon Is now Mry," and will re main so nntltl Tuesday night, that Is. dry as a slate, but tho Individual wets) are not suffering from aridity of the esophagus, having, with that wise premonition nnd abundant fore sight Inherent in tho "wet" element, laid away a little something against a rainy day, as it were. After tomorrow, from nil indica tions, tho ladles will assume still grealer Importance In tho eyes of the politicians, for, after that dato, they will, In all probability, be legal voters In Oregon. It will probably not alter results much, only in preparing the political platforms a little more at tention will have to be paid to their cut and trimmings. .There will bo a few more frills nnd embroidery, nnd a llttlo more care used In selection of stylo. Otherwise tho results will bo, so far as parties go, about the same. cial Printing Co., Beach-Thomas Co., A. E. Kern & Co. Two men well known in Salem are nniong tho signers, Henry Kundret and William 0. CInrke, of tho Clarke Kundret Company. "Billy" CInrke, though a "flat-siiiary" man, Is ngalnst tho Harris-Godfrey bill, because of the Indefensible Jokers In it. I heard hi in say, In nn address to printers, n short tlmo ngo, thnt ho would vote ngalnst tho pending bill, because of Its many defects, nnd that "if ho were slnto printer, he would fight It as Mr. Dunlwny does." Mr. Harris admits In his circulars tr, newspapers that tho bill Is so bad tint it needs various amendments. Then why are voters expected to put Into effect In December a law thnt must bo ninended and remedied In January when the legislature meets? Tho way to defeat this scheme Is to vote X No," as recommended by granges and (ho taxpayers' league nnd I shall continue to give Oregon the cheapest public printing In tho 1'nlted Slates. WILLIS S.

'The Chocolate Soldier," the Grand tonight, Is one of tho very best of modern comic operas, and Is present ed by one of tho strongest companies ever seen outside of the big cities. Salem theat re-goers will havo some thing to regret should they miss It, Besides tho scenes being laid In Bul garia, now fighting desperately with Turkey, givo It un unusual Interest, as the opera gives one a realistic picture of the Bulgarian soldier as well ns that of official and peasant. You can not afford to mlsi It, Constantinople, Nov. 4, 10:30 a. ra. The Turkish army is retreating to the last line of fortifications outside the capital. This was announced In the first bul letin which the government Issued to night, admitting defeat in the great battle. Constantinople, Nov. 4, 1:30 a. m. The porte has applied to the powers for mediation with a view to the ces sation of hostilities, and for the ne gotiation of peace. Application has been made to the embassies here and by circular to the Ottoman represen tatives In the European capitals. Constantinople, Nov. 4. -Constantinople is In a fever of excitement over the alarming reports from the field of battle. Foreigners nnd natives are suffering from tension caused by the series of military disasters, and, although tho city Is In a state of siege, crime in some quarters is unchecked, Many families are leaving the city. The people fear first an outbreak of I Moslem fanaticism by tho turbulent i Ul l"u ,u"tI lluaBls- u"u BUU- eratlon. The student body offered to ondly, a rising In hordes of maddened (lo all work of c01lst,.uclng tho buIld. soldiers who are being driven by the',ng provldcd tUe board would furnish Bulgarians to make their last stand a tho necns3ary material. Tho grounds, few miles outside of Constantinople nnd then perhaps to fall back on the capital. Rattle Still Continues. Tho battle still continues on the plains of Thrace and If the Turkish soldiers fall back within the gates of ( property on Hallowe'en night was tak tho city, It Is feared they may turn . en up and the parents of the children their guns and bayonets on those who are awaiting here the outcomo of the conflict. There Is a large and unruly element of tho population which would be glad of nny pretext for massacres and pll-j lage. Tho presenco of more than 10, 000 Moslem refugees from the war zone, who havo lost all their posses sions, adds to the danger of the situ ation. Rumors nre current that the young Turks' committee may start rioting, with tho object of overthrowing the government, but there havo been no tangible proofs of such a plan. Danger to Foreigners Real. H is doubtful whether a rising would bo directed against foreigners as much ns ngalnst native Christians, but tho danger to foreigners Is renl. It tho Turkish army sustains complete defeat, tho lives and property of thou- tends of foreigners, as well as native Christians, will be in peril. ' Tho presenco of foreign warships ta of the greatest importance nnd would be tho surest euarantea of the seeur- i Ity of foreign Interests and public or der generally. The government has made more severe tho state of siege; strong patrols circulate through the streets nnd tho police have received oi dors to use the utmost vigilance and : to repress disorders rigorously. ! .

The boys have been working hard every night, rain or shine, on a slippery, muddy field, and are prepared to play on any kind of a field that may be awaiting them when they arrive In the Hub City to morrow. Coach Turner wn3 exceptionally well pleased with the way the team worked last Saturday, and says that If the fellows all work together each one for the team and not for himself, that they will give Albany the worst drubbing she has had in years. Over 1G0 tickets had been sold for the excursion early this morning and President Fields of the Student Body expects 50 more to be sold before night If this is done, the high school band, which has been recently organ ized, will be taken along and will fur nish the music for the occasion and play the accompaniments to the school songs. Yell Leader Martin has been drill ing some new yells Into the rooters as well as having them practice the old ones and expects to outdo the na tlves up the line In yelling, as well as defeating them In the game.

GRANDMOTHERS USED SAGE TEA To Darken the Hair nnd Restore Graj ami Faded Hair to Its Natural Color.

Because In point of ability, experience and qualifications no opposing can didate can favorably" compare with him. Because he has been a faithful public servant, working up to a position of Influence In national affairs so that Presidents Taft and Roosevelt, his associates of all parties and constit uents generally, praise him In terms similar to those used by Governor West, after a visit to the National Capitol when he said In an inter view: "In intellect, oratorical abil ity and devotion to the Interests of the people, Hawley stands head and shoulders above the majority of the members of the National House of Representatives."
