The above appeared In the News
and the Enterprise ON Saturday, and
we republish It In order to make a cor
rection. Mr.. Barber has n hundred
more votes for. the Assembly thnn he
has been credited with, and Is elected.
lie is and always has been n Repub-
lican, but, owing to'the d~isatfectior In
the Republican ranks, he was nomi-
mated by the Democrats, and with their
party strength aud the aid of Repub-
licans he was elected. There Is a tic
between two Republicans-Hay and
Smith-which will have to be settled
between them: one or the other can
decline to accept a certificate Of cleo
tlon or In case both claim 1t, a special
election will be ordered to choose an
Assemblyman, in which case the DEM
ocrats and tho Republicans will make
nominations. We should like to see
the positive strength Of both parties
again tested ut o special election
although It would cost the county
some money. We expect such will be
the case, IL OIL an official count Of the
late election returns the figures hold
out as already published.

LUCKY

EprfoRs s. F. ALrA: A Mercantile
Library ticket holder, previous TO the
drawing, remarked to me TINT "There's
luck In odd numbers, says Rory
O'More." / expressed a doubt II there
would DO any .Wore odd than even
numbers among those which drew the
prizes. In order to test the value of
my opinion, I have taken the trouble
to glance through your corrected prize
list. | examined the numbers which
drew tile SO prize, amounting to 81, 900
and over. OF these, II were odd and
16 were even, a distribution as nearly
equal as 1t Is possible to make.
Eighteen Of the above prizes were
represented BY numbers under 100,0 600
and fifteen by numbers over 1907 0O.
The figures were distributed among
the numbers rs follows or ones
there were 33-from these Is should he
deducted for the numbers over 100, 600,
rs In all of those a one was necessarily
the initial figure; Of twos, there were
10; threes, IA; tours, 235 flves, %;
skies, 0; sevens 10 eights, 81; mines.
IL; ciphcrs, 16-being a total Of So odd
figures and 70 even figures.
I have no doubt that any person
curious enough to analyze another
batch Of 80 numbers would find a still
closer approximation to the great ger-
eral law Of ODD AND EVEN.

TIE SANE MEN.-The robbers cap
tured IN Utah, two OF whom were
brought here by the Mormon Police on
Friday and two moro expected on this
mornings train, appear to be the same
scoundrels who robbed the Cope stage
some time ago. At any rate a gold
bar taken from Wells, Fargo & Co.'S
box ct TINT time was found in posses
sion Of one Of them. They were all
well acquainted here, at Cope and
along tho road, and were not suspected
to be "bold buccaneers" as they have
proven themselves In this matter.
They called Jim Myers by name when
they robbed him, but no says he sus-
pscted the wrong men and 1t never
occurred to him that Dan Taylor and
the others, whom he knew very well,
were OIL tho rob.-ElkO Chronicle, 18Th.

ED. Nxws: Frompartial returns, we

HAruRAL1zsD CITIZENS AS

One of the worst pieces Of corrup-
ton in politics exists In asking or sub
hitting to parties paying expenses for
naturalizing foreigners and buying
their poll.tax receipts to ernble them
to vote. No alien who has the least
appreciation of his position rs an
American citizen should permit HIM
self to DO placed in such a beggarly
position ; and We trust that in future
this abuse Of public opinion, this ham,
pering OF an honest exercise OF the
elective franchise, will be done away
with, for It Is a disgrace to our Ameri-
can system Of freemen and free voting.
Both political parties practice 1t, and
we are very sorry that our own party
IN s~clf-defense, had to do so at the late
election. At least six thousand dollars
were spent hero In Storey county by
the Democrats and the Republicans
during the late canvass to get foreign
srs naturalized, to pay men to hunt
them up, to pay for poll-tax receipts
tfor Americans as we'll as foreigners
and to pay for "workers" and
watchers" We sincerely trust that
both parties will ignore and denounce
these contemplate practices hereafter.
Our contemporary Of tho White Pine
Nc,es also alludes to this evil In poll
tics, and very truthfully says: "The
strife between contending parties
crowds foreign-born residents into the
| Courts for naturalization before they
really comprehend the responsibilities
Of citizenship and when once enfran,
chised, the very men who urged them
into the responsibilities of citizenship
are too apt to teach them treason tc
their adopted country, deceit upon the
public, and disgrace upon themselves
and children. These Ignorant men are
informed that money Is ready for then
if they vote the right way, instead o
being taught that whatever way they
vote for money Is the wrong way. 1
has come to be the common practice II
smaller places as well as In tho cities
to produce a fund for procuring pol
taxes for this class Of persons. Tha
Of itself Is constructive corruption
for it is an understood obligation upoi
the registered resident that he shall
vote the ticket Of the party standing
the tax. That works q wrong. W.
believe in the poll tax, aud In every
man who Inns a voice In the Govern
ment paying something to Its support
And 1t Is certain that the poll tax, ever
rs it now Is, excludes many bad voters
Yet 1t Is not certain but more harm Il
done by tho means Of this partisan In
reference than II all were free to vote
But tho practice Of providlnga pur
chase fund for election day Is an un
mitigated evil, n fraud upon good NOR
ais, and an outrage aimed directly a
the subversion Of our Institutions. w
will have more to say Of this when tn
time for It's earnest consideration come

THE LATE BATTLE IN CvBA.-The
accounts which have reached us by
mail of tho battlo of Guaimao, Cuba,
between the Spanish troops, under
Pueblo, and the insurgents, under Gen
cral Jordan and Colonel Becuvilliers
seem to leave no doubt of the disas-
trous defeat of Pueblo, and the fact
that this was one of tho most impor-
tant engagements of the war. Cen
eral Pueblo left tho limo Of the Nue.
vitas and Puerto Principe Railroad on
Christmas day, with $500 picked
Spanish troops, six pieces, of artillery
and provisions amply sufficient for
eight or ten days, His destination
was Cascorro and Guaimro, tho Gu
ban capital, as indicated in a procla.
nation of his, issued few days be.
fore, and in which he also boosted
that, sword in hand, ho would seek,
lind and destroy tho enemy that he
would show no quarters. Ho made
his attack, says correspondent, upon
the insurgents, who were entrcnched
before Guaimaro, January 1st, and af.
ter three repulscs, was forced to re-
treat, closely followed by the Cubans,
to Arroyo Hondo, where he wis be-
scigcd and harasscd for fifteen days.
On tho 18th of January ho cut his
way through, and after five days diff.
ticuIt marching and continual fight
ing, reached the small seaport of Ba-
Ga, on the North coast, few leagues
East of Nuevitas, minus artillery and
and much other property, where
Spanish vessels came at his bidding,
and removed him and the remnant of
his army to Nucvitas. Tho Spanish
losses were, it is stated, 400 killed
and 800 wounded. The Cuban loss ia

Der of very desirable locations, and
canvassing the matter thoroughly, the
Committee determined to adhere to
tho location previously selected, as
combining greater number of I'D

lot known as Gallons Spring." and is
the same on which the Fair was held
before tho war. In addition to tho
