SHASTA CoUNTY-orFICi.L.

We give this week the vote Of Shasta
county as cast at the Presidential Election
held on Tuesday, November 5th. It will
De seen that the vote of the county is very
light, aggregating only 9eS for Congress
man, the highest vote cast. At Burney
Valley no polls were opened, the vote of
that precinct at the election last year was
Il Democratic to 6 Republican, The vote
indicates that MIR. Luttrcll received almost
the entile Democratic vote of the county
both of the Greeley and O'Connor wings,
and that many Democrats who did not vote
tor Presidential Electors, voted for Luttrell.
Yet with this aid, aud all the influence the
Sacramento Union could bring to bear in
his favor, Mr.. Coghlan beats him in the
couaty 1OS votes. If the Republicans
through cut the District had done half as
we'll, we should have been spared having a
representative of Luttrell's stripe from Cali
fornia. The Great Register of this county
contains 1861 names, an excess probably
ef 250 names over the actual voting popu-
lation of the county; buteven these figures
indicate that nearly 500 voters, more than
one third the number in the county, re-
Trained from exercising their privilege.
The O'Connor Electors polled 43 votes,
and it is quite probable that that ticket
would have received many more if the
ballots had been generally distributed.
