A PREHISTORIC MAN OF STONE.

New Mexicans Puzzled Over a Discovery
That May Prove q Cardiff Giant.
EDDY, n. NJ. Nov. pa petrif1ed man was
found in a cave in the foot hills of Guada-
loupe mountains yesterday. 1t is now on
exhibition. 1t is difficult to determine
whether it is the remains of q white man or
an Indian, indications pointing in either d.
rection. There is evidence of great an
tiquity and some modern. There are i'm
prints Of sandals or moccasins on the foot,
but the hair is in the modern style. It has
an Indian nose but no high cheek bones.
The body was found in q large chamber
with limestone walls a bout 500 teet from the
entrance to the cave. The cave is three or
five miles long, has over leo distinct cham
bers and some wonderful forms of stala ctite
petrifcations and vegetable matter. The
question has been raised whether the discov-
cry is not another Cardiff giant scheme, but
all who examine believe it to be genuine
petrif1cation of prehistoric man.

thanksgiving offerings. to be distributed by
the st. Paul Relief Society. For three days

provisions to last the 1000 poor in the city
all winter, and more than the city has given
before in three years. The AZ schools In the
city gave l72 immense wagon loads OF cloth
ing and provisions for distribution and It is
believed the problem of caring for the city's
Door has been solved.

WITH a proper growth of municipal
spirit in the meantime a year from now
should add many to this city's subjects for
thankfulness. When citizens learn to
abandon apathy for energy with regard to
the welfare Of their place of residence, they
and it will have an ever increasing reason
for pride and rejoicing. Free bridges,
smoke consumption, garbage collection and
cremation, street signs. some proper return

THE SUBMITTED QUESTIONS.

The submitted questions at the cleo
ton of Tuesday were all decided in this
county as the RECoRD-UNIoN advised.
Not saying this boastfully, we call atten-
tion to it as proof that the people do read
and inform themselves upon matters to
be voted upon affecting the organic law
and matters touching economic adminis-
tration.
a few papers went wrong, however,
and advised action that was not taken by
the people. In this county the prevailing
vote on all the submitted matters was in
harmony with the views advocated by
the great mass of the press, and which
the RECoRD-UNIoN kept before the pub
lie mind persistently. The proof that
the people Of Sacramento County read
and think sensibly is found in the results
we note below.
The proposition to extend the legisla-
tive term went down in wreck by ma
jority of nearly 1000 votes, and this in a
community financially benefited by a
long-term Legislature. Let that splendid
vote go to the eternal credit of the Capt.
tai City and county.
The proposition to make bonded peri
DDS for city, town and district debts forty
instead Of twenty years carried by 5000
majority, while the scheme to salary the
Lieutenant-GOvernor and give clerks in
the Capitol license to lobby the Legisla-
ture for increase of salaries was showed
under by nearly 5000 votes.
The proposition to limit deficiencies
and to prevent State officials incurring
deficiencies was carried by a handsome
majority. That it was less than in the
previous cases is due to the fact that a
considerable number believed sincerely
that to give a State Board power to ap-
prove deficiencies was not good policy, as
any deficiency whatever is now prohib-
tied; but the law is ignored.
The abolition of differing methods for
cities of differing population strength in
preparing new charters was approved by
nearly 1900 majority. The test of senti-
ment relative to the election of United
States Senator by the direct vote of the
people was decided in the affirmative by
$500 majority.
The San Francisco Depot Act was con-
firmed by nearly $500 majority, and the
voters educational qualification senti-
ment test goes up from Sacramento
County with the voice of 4, 900 majority in
an approval that amounts in its emphasis
to demand.
The proposition to refund the State debt
Sacramento rejected, and wisely. Thus
on every proposition the RECORD
UNIONS position and the vote of the peo-
pie agree, an outcome that, we trust, re-
fleets the vote of the State generally.
The record-union., 1892-11-14
UNACCoUNrABLE STUPIDITY.

1t would seem to be quite impossible to
frame sentences in the English language,
relative to the duties of election officers,
so that all boards will understand and
obey them. For years the law has re-
Quired the inspector of every board to re-
tain in his private possession, for
six months, TO be open meanwhile
to the inspection of all citizens who
ask to see the same, one of the tally lists
and one of the poll lists. This instruction
is plainly printed and the attention of
every Election Board called to it. Yet we
have never had an election in this State
that some Election Board has not sealed
up both tally lists, thus preventing the
result of the election being known until
the official count could be made.
In San Francisco twenty precinct boards
committed this blunder and Sacramento
county one did so. From this it would
appear that no matter how explicit the
law, however emphatically it is i'm
pressed Lupon Election Boards, some of
them will disregard it purposefully or
through sheer stupidity.
The instructions referred to (Sec. 1862 of
the election law is very necessary one.
1t is intended to supply correct tally
sheet in case any mishap the copy sent
TO the County Clerk IS lost or destroyed.
1t is intended. also, to afford voters an OPP
portunity to examine a tally and a poll

SAID the Milwaukee Sentinel a few day.

SAID the Milwaukee Sentinel few days
ago:
Chauncey Depew approves of the general
apathy at shows" he says, that the people
don't want any change. When you have a
great excitement it means that the people are
excited and want a change. The country is
unusually prosperous. The American people
are peculiarly fond of leaving well enough
alone for a certain period, and then they want
change just for the sake of change"
Our contemporary will now agree that
Mr.. Depew was wonderfully mistaken;
that apathy may mean impending change,
and that really on the 8th of November
the certain period" ended. But the
change was not made for it's own sake,
but in protest against policy-that was
the long and the short of it.
