ALL ALONG THE LINE, Republicans Will Again Take the Reins of Government. THE SOLID SOUTH BROKEN. A Republican' President and Repub lioan Majority in Both Houses of Congress. Later returns have not materially changed the national vote from that given last week. The oflki il count stands Harrison 2-\d and Cleveland 162 votes in the. electoral college, i counting West Virginia's six votes! for Harrison, though the official count! may give them to Cleveland. The re turns from the mountain districts of that state are blow coming in and both sides claim the victory by a small ma jority. The republicans maintain their! majority in the senate and gain con- ! trol of the home by aboti tls majority, which is tha best news the territories could receive. Tin; republican con gress will admit those territories knock- j ing at the door of the Union with the, greatest possible dispatch. In the tcnitory John J5. Alien, dele gate to congress, is ahead by about ! GOOO, it is thought, when complete re- ' turns are in. So far as reported, up j to the time of going to press, only five counties have given Voorhees a major- ; ity, and these majorities give a total cf '• not much more tiian a hundred. With \ Allen's majority at 6000 this shows a gain of over 8000 to the republicans over delegate vote of 1880. The ter ritorial legislature will be republican in both branches. It is reported that j only one democrat has been elected to the council. Returns thus far received give the republicans 20 and democrats 4 in the house. The vote of Whit man county, as canvassed by Auditor Turner, Probate Judge Liv by and \ Deputy Treasurer Smith, is given in detail in the table. Allen gets ama jority of '241, a gain of ■"■'.'l to the re publicans, compared with delegate vot< of 188 G. Of the county officers, re publicans elect 8 out of 11. The official count gives Mr. Bean, candi date for school superintendent, :*. ma j joiity of 89. The republicans have two legislators and the democrats one. Republican majority in county about | "205, a gain of forty. Thus fully equipped in republican majorities we are ready to hold a stnto election at the earliest opportunity. WHITMAN COUNTY. Uniontown is still the deaioeratic] stronghold, the party vote lieing about! four to one. 'C^Ljcpublican tnnjority \u Whit— . in county, as sliouh l«y the vote for military officers, is about 295. In I 1886 it was 253. The phenomenal majority of 12-19 lor the republican candidate for pro bate judge exceeds the total vote cast for t!i i deal »oriti: cmli i ite. For coroner the democrats had no j regular candidate, th.> convention noui ioee declining to run. Fourteen per sons racteved votes for coroner. Ed. Jones, republican candidate ;• r sheep commission) r, was reelected by a bandaome plurality over the 27 per ■oot who received votes for the ofii •. Clinton is the banner republican prt-cinct, castiog its entire '■'■'■> votes for Allen. The political complexion of the precinct, as shown by tha vote for other otlicvrs, U 29 republican to 4 tleruccratic. The prohibitionists jiollt-il lcsi than one-halt the number of votes claimed by them before the election, Rogtr S. Green, candidate for delegate, receiv ing 113 in the county. The highest prohibition vote was for C. M. Kin ciid, candidate for prosecuting utter my, who receive,l 157. The prohibi tien vote being so bid all and scatter ing it is omitted from the table.

Clarke county gives Allen 370 ma jority. Lincoln county gives Allen a major ity of 209. The total delegate vote in Spokane county was 439 G. The vote for delegate in Stevens county is reported to be a tie. Allen's majority over Voorhees in Pierce county is"s2G. The prohibi tion vote for delegate was 84. Voorhees had majorities in Colum bia, Douglas, Franklin, Mason aud Skamania counties, totalizing at some thing over 100. -~- In Walla Walla county the repub licans elected everything but probate judge and coroner, by majorities rang j> ing .from 7 to 438. i%V It is just 24 years since the repub 'VViui elected a sheriff in Walla Walla •■'•■ ***ty, says the Journal. The last S£2 one that held the office was W. S. Oil- : Ham. I ' . .; ■ IN THE STATES. . ; Cleveland's official majority in ' Georgia i 3 00,003. Harrison's plurality in Pennsylvania is 79,879. Elaine's plurality in 1884 wasSl,ol9. Republicans gain one congressman in Kentucky, making t*o in the dele gation. New York and Indiana, with their •11 electoral votes, inarched out of the "doubtful" column in fine style. Ex-Senator Mahone, of Virginia, is confident that a fair canvass will give I the state's electoral vote to Harrison. The Chicago Tribune figures the next congress as follows: Senate—Re | publicans 38, democrats .'57, with one j state to hear from. House—Repub licans 175, democrats 150. The result of the election in Kings: j county, N. V., was a surprise to the democratic leaders, who expected 23, --i 000 plurality for Cleveland. The shrinkage is accounted for by the re ; turn of mugwumps and prohibitionists lof four years ago to the republican : party. In Delaware the democrats have a movement on foot to unseat a republi can elected to the legislature, which would make it a tie on joint ballot and 1 prevent the election of a V. S. senator, thereby placing the appointment in the | hands of the governor, who would be expected to name a democrat. The latest tables on the complexion i | of the next national house of represen tatives show that the republicans have elect* I 25 members from the southern! states, viz : Arkansas 2, Florida, 1, : Kentucky 2, Louisiana 1, Maryland 3, i Missouri 4, North Carolina 1, Tennessee 13, Virginia 4, West Virginia 2. The j house seems to be republican by about | 15 majority. In West Virginia the all important I : official count iv the mountainous parts \ of the state is not complete, and until it j is no one will know definitely whether ! the electoral ticket is republican or I democratic. The majority cannot be | more than 200 or 300 either way. The . republican state committee has raised its estimate from 125 and 200 to the above figure?, as it claims, while the I democratic claim it from 400 to 500. George William Curtis, chief mug I wunip, accounts for Cleveland's de- at as follows: "1 think the result was due chiefly to the presentation of a ingle issne'which the president's party accepted but did not desire, which was new and unexpected to the country. Much is due also to disap pointment with the president's admin istration of the civil service reform laws, to trading of votes, and to lack ■ of personal popularity." THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

A Woman Shoots a Burglar.— j Wednesday night a burglar tried to force an entrance to the residence of Mr. McCartney of Spokane Falls. Mrs. McCartney w;ts not at home, but the house was in charge of a lady who sup presses her name. The fellow tried to raise the windows but was unable to do so. After making the unsuccessful attempt at the windows, be came back to the front door again. Mrs. X. then warned him to leave the place but he refuse (1 saying he must have something to eat. She told him she had a levol- vi r and would shoot if necessary. He replied that ha li id a revolver too, and although he did not want to use it, he would come in. After once more try— ng the windows, be attacked the front j loor again. .Mrs. X. then fired through ' the do ■■, the first time over the man's bead. After a moment's interval she l fired again, this time, however, the ."hot took effect, entering his left side. He was taken to the hospital and the ball was extracted by the hospital sur geon. The wounded man tjave his name as Holland, but says he knows nothing of what happened. However, his story is not believed, as he was not at all under the influence of liquor at that time.

He. gays: "By authority of the established custom of this country, I hereby designate the last Thursday of November as Thanks giving day for the year 1888. I recom mend that on that day the people of Washington territory do assemble", in their places of worship, in their school houses am] society halls, in their log gers' camps and miners' cabins, on their ships and by the firesides cf rich and poor, in city and country, and there give thanks to Almighty (bid for his infinite goodness.to us and all men. If any homeless ones be seen standing by the byways on that day, I tru* that those who are more fortunate will care for them, that they may see the silver lining of the clouds and feel -the sunshine of kindness for a moment, and so not despair of human nature.
