Tomorrow the four new states of North and South Dakota, Montans and Washington hold elections for state governments, Congresmen and legislatures that will elect United States Senators, North Dakota will adopt her consti- tution by from 10,000 to 15,000 majority, but defeat the prohibition amendment by 3,000 to 4,000 majority. Thatstate goes republican and Jobn Miller will be elected governor and H. C. Hansbrough, member of Congress. Ex-Gov, Pierce is sure of one of the Senatorial seats, and ex-Gorv. Ordway isa strong candidate for the other. In South Dakota ihere will be a large repub- lican majority. A.C. Mellette, the present governor of the territory, will be elected gov- ernor and Judge Gifford and J. A. Pickler members of Congress. The Senatorsbips are in doubt, R. F.

Brightwood is now a Sunday Mecca for hun- dreds of Washington people. As, when the Eckington road was completed the Sunday traffic could not be accommodated, the Bright- wood line was yesterday nearly buried out of sight by the crowds that packed, clung and climbed upon the cars. The week-day travel is limited mainly to the use of residents of Brightwood who have business in town, but this pays expenses and proves a great local convenience, When the electric storage cars that were last week ordered by Bes company are put on the receipts will no doubtbe greatly increased, Five extra cars were run yesterday, The six cars carried 1,200 passenges and turned ay not less than $00 ‘‘fares,”” operation e line is already beginning to tell on the growth of Brightwood, and if the electric cars and the 7th street cable line reduce the time from the avenue to Brightwood to half an hour or iess, as is expected, there will be a lively boom this fall in the pretty suburb. The new road is in good condition ‘and the grades are easy, so that the electric cars ought to make jood time. The roadway of 7th-street road, jowever, was never in worse condition at this time of the year and many owners of horseflesh are using the cars rather than to be jolted to pieces in their own vehicles. endear Arrival of Racers. Davis & Hall's stable of twenty horses arrived this morning from Sheepshead Bay, and there are now on the grounds some sixty horses to participate in the fall meeting of the National jockey club, which takes place next week. 8, ) Another contingent of thirty horses from Sheephshead Bay will arrive tomorrow or Wed- nesday and from now onthe stables from the westand north will begin arriving daily, co that by the close of the week the two hundred ts. | horses expected will have reached here. The track and groundsare in excellent shape and there now remains only the finishing touches tobe put onto have everything in readiness when the bell rings next Monday afternoon.
