WILL COUNT JUST THE SANE.
Candidate Johnson's Name Found In
correct on the Ballot.
The Matter Submitted to Judge Catlin,
and He Says 1t VIII be
All Right.

Hiram w. Johnson, the Peoples Party
candidate for Sheriff, called at the Court
house yesterday afternoon and called
County Clerk Rhoad's attention to the
fact that his name had been placed incor-
rectly on the ballot to be used at Tues
days election-that it appeared thereon
as H. n. Johnson.
Mr.. Rhoads Immediately telephoned to
the printer, but received a reply that it
would be absolutely impossible to print
new ballots in time for the election.
This was perplexing dilemma, mas
much as Mr.. Johnson insisted upon hay-
ing his correct name on the ballot. At
torneys were consulted and it was finally
decided to place the matter before Supe-
rior Judge Catlin Immediately on an
agreed state of facts namely, that
the name was incorrect as it appeared on
the ballot. Mr.. Rhoads waived all for
malities, so as to avoid any delay, and
the case was explained to Judge Catlin.
Mr.. Rhoads appearing for himself and
minus an attorney.
Judge Catlin considered the case care
fully, consulted some authorities and
then rendered the following decision
I'm answer to above order the said w
n,
ally appeared and showed to the court
that the proper number of official ballots
for the county of Sacramento were de-
hvered to him by the printer at 10 O'Clock

of the error mentioned in the foregoing
affidavit was first made by him at 1870 p.
NJ. of this day, and the above order to
show cause was served upon him at 2:45
P. NJ. of this day, and he forthwith an
peared thereto. Upon such appearance
and hearing, after hearing the answer of
said clerk and examining the petition of
said II. w. Johnson and the sample bal
lot, and upon the examination under
oath of w. j. Hassett, the person who
printed said ballots, it appearing that
there is not now sufficient time in which
to reprint said ballots with the proper
correction in time for delivery to and use
at the election to be held November s,
1892. And it further appearing and the
court finding that said error is inmate
rial and that all votes cast for III. n.
Johnson by said official ballot should be
counted for II. w. Johnson, the person
as aforesaid duly nominated. 1t is hereby
ordered that all ballots cast for ii. n.
johnson by said official ballot be counted
for said H. w. Johnson, and that these
proceedings be and they are hereby dis

DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.
A Lively Open-Air Meeting at Twelfth
and E Streets.

A Lively Open-Air Meeting at Twelfth
and E Streets.
The Democrats had an enthusiastic
meeting at Twelfth and E streets last
evening. Nearly all of the city and county
candidates were there, and several OF
them made speeches.
There were bonfres and an anvil
cannonade furnishing plenty of light and
noise, respectively.
0. 5. Flint, candidate for the Assem- bly
from the Twentieth District, spoke at
some length upon the achievements of
the Democratic party and the issues be-
fore the people of this State. He paid
particular attention to the prevalent GUS
tom of electing lawyers to the Legisla-
ture, and insisted that representatives of
the producing and other classes were en-
titled to just proportion of the legisla-
tors. He also indorsed the new city
charter and the present system of State
publication of schoolbooks. The large
audience listened attentively to Mir.
Flint's eloquent effort and accorded him
a hearty round of applause at the close.
Matt f. Johnson, candidate for Supe-
rior Judge, also made good speech. He
talked about the loyalty and consistency
of the Democratic party to its time-hon-
ored principles. and predicted sweeping
victory next week.
Speeches were also made by M. R.
Beard, candidate for County Clerk; w.
r. Grimshaw, candidate for Auditor and
Recorder; James A. Elder, candidate for
Treasurer; w. A. Henry, candidate for
Township Justice; r. NJ. Clarken, candi-
date for District Attorney, and John

Rep. Dem.
Elector,

Gratis may be sure oftheir list ofl4l electors,
yet they must get 81 votes more to win.
hey would be glad to take them out
OF the above list.
The Republicans need but AZ votes out
of the same list.
1t would take many pages to describe
the campaign as it now stands. New ork
Is admitted to be the point of greatest in
terest.
There counting proceeds through the
day as fast as lots OF 100 ballots accumu-
late in the boxes. kilograms should ar
rive in California as early as 3 P. NJ.
showing the state of the poll up to an
earlier hour in New York.
NO prediction can sooner be made, but
1t is useful to prepare the vote of 1888 so
that when said earlier dispatches come
some facts may be guessed at in regard to
the result.
The total vote of the State in 1888 was
1,320, LOCO, when Harrison won by plur-
allty of 1900. The Republican vote was
SIS, 759 and the Democratic vote was 635,-
7o7, and the scattering vote was about
35, 800.
The registration this year is said to be
I,5OO,OuO, and the vote which will be cast
may be assumed for the moment as 400
900.
The city of New York and Long Island
are referred to often as South of the Har-
lem Bridge" and usually deposits about
thirty-tive per cent. of the whole vote,
and therefore may be assumed to be about
to poll 1000 votes.
The rest of the State is known as "North
OF the Harlem Bridge" and will be as
sumed as about to poll 500, 900 votes.
In 1883 the Republicans cast fifty-three
per cent. of the NORTH vote and fortv-
two per cent. of the ''South' vote. The
Democrats cast forty-Jhree per cent. of
the NORTH vote and ffty-seven per
cent. of the South" vote.
If the votes fall this year as thew did in
1SSS the Republicans will have a total for
the State of 600 and the Democrats
Will have $4,000, leaving a plurality to
the former of 1900.
In this computation fl 900 has been left
for scattering votes, and it will be noted
that four per cent. of the scattering is in
the northern computation and one per
cent. is in the southern figures.
AS the returns come in from New
ork those who are curious can figure
them out as follows:
Rule /. The telegram will probably
state that so many districts show Re-
publican -, Democratic -, Scattering
:. Add these figures to get the total
vote so far reported. Use this total as a
dlvlsor and use the Republican vote as a
dividend. Find the quotient to at least
four places, and multiply the quotient by
100000 lif the return is for north of
Harlem Bridge"). The result should be a
fair estimate of the probable Republican
vote in Northern New York. Then get
the probable Democratic vote in the same
manner, this time using the reported
Democratic vote as the dividend. Sub
tract one probability from the other and
you will have the probable plurality for
Republicans and it will be in the neigh
borhood OF $4,000 north of Harlem
Bridge"
Rule ,. Follow the above rule for
south of Harlem Bridge and the re-
suit Will show probable Democratic
plurality of about 5000
Rule 3. Find the difference between the
results of rules l and and then cheer for
harrlson. FRANK MILLER.

TWO YEARS FOR HERTZ.

Judge Catlin Learns Something More
About the Bicycle Thief.
John Hertz, the young man who hired
bicycle in this city and then departed
for Nevada with it, was called up before
Judge Catlin yesterday Tor sentence.
The young mans attorney, J. Charles
Jones, asked the court to be lenient, but
Judge Catlin said it had developed since
the trial that Hertz was not the lamb-like
and unfortunate individual he had at
tempted to picture himself-that he had
been in scrapes before.
The court then sentenced Hertz to two
years. Imprisonment in the penitentiary
at san Quentin.

And Now the Woman Has Married
the Other Fellow.
On the marriage license book in the
County Clerks office to-day, says the
Marysville Democrat of Thursday, the
following entry was made: alfred
Hartley, aged 80 years, and Cora Sutton,
age "A years" The date of the license
was not given and it is supposed it was
issued several idays ago, as it has been
rumored they were married by a Justice
OF the Peace in Wheatland some time last
week.
The couple gained notoriety here last
month by the woman being sold by her
supposed husband, man named Farren,
to a welI-known liyeryman in this city
for $500, the husband skipping without
dividing the money as promised and the
woman and Hartley following him to
Sacramento.
The liveryman thought he had secured
the prize, and has several times been
seen out riding with her. but Hartley has
at last secured a legal right to her.
