LOCAL. INTELLIGENCE.

CuRros1mzs OF THE GREAT REGIsTER.-
C7onies of the Great Register of Sacramento
county have just been sent out by the
County Clerk to the various voting precincts
The register this year is quarto of 165 pages,
and contains The names of II, 426 voters. In
the lists viii be found a large number of
names where the initials are inclosed in quo
tation marks. In all such cases the explana-
ton is that the voter has no name TOR the ini-
tial In some instances it happens that all
the initials are thus quoted, and those are
cases wherein the voter has no given name,
unless the initials ERE to be called names.
The Clerk was unable TO read the proof of
the register thoroughly, aad hence errors
have crept in. Some voters names have pos
sibly been omitted that should not be; some
are recorded in the wrong precinct; few
names are spelled so as to be completely
changed in character. The law permits all
such errors to be corrected by the Clerk, who
will publish an erratUm.slip" prior to the
election. To enable him TO do so, citizens
must notify him of the corrections to be made
ut once That they may do so, he yesterday
placed copies of the register at the hotels, and
in all the principal business places of the city,
that they may be examined. No new regis
tration can be made, but any clerical omis
zion or Typographical errors will be corrected.
The "slip" must he printed very soon, and
hence all notices of corrections should be sent
in promptly. Il will be better for the voters
to 20 in person to the Clerks office, as some
errors cannot be corrected unless the Clerk
has personal knowledge of the applicant
An examination of the IL, 426 names is tedi-
GUS work, but results in some interesting fig
ures being obtained, few of which are given
