Alameda County Went Republic
can Again.
Defeat of the Constitutional Amendment
Visit by Burgisrs-Disruption Of
Public Highway.

The entire Republican ticket was elected
in Alameda County, including the two state
Senators and the FIVE Assemblymen. Inc
closest fight was the two Judgeships Of the
Superior Court. Judge Greene's plurality
over Judge Gibson will be 400, while Judge
Henshaw's will be 600. The total vote has
not been entirely canvassed, but the full re-
turns from the three precincts not COM
pleted will not change the result. Mark
hams plurality will be about $500; Churcn
for Recorder and Lecke for Assessor have
1900 plurality; Hussey for Sheriff has $500 {;
Crane for County Clerk 1000. and Frick Tor
County Superintendent of Schools will have
1900. 1t is complete Waterloo for the
Democrats. and they are dumfounded.
The amendment TO the State Constitution
was defeated in the county, the voters not
understanding how to vote. They did not
vote at all, i. e., the words. " For the amend
ment" were printed on the tickets ana the
voter was supposed to vote yes or mo"
opposite, but very few paid any attention to
it, and voted without writing either.
