PORTLAND. Me-, Sept. 16.-The re-
turns from the small towns and p1anta-
tions in distant parts of the state are,
as usual. coming in very slowly. The
vote from cities and towns which poll
more than two-thirds of the entire
vote of the state, indicates, however,
that the republics plurality will be
between 4s. 900 and so, 600. the largest
in the history of the state In every
county in the state, the republican
ticket was successful. and almost
every town showed a republican gain.
The democratic vote is about 40 per
cent. less than in 1892; about 20 per
cent. of this has gone to the republican
ticket and the stay-at-homes are re-
sponsib1e for the other half. The

NOMINATIONS REFUSED.
Prohibitionists Begin Legal Proceed
ings to Get Their Nominees On
the BALLOT.

OAKLAND, CAL, Oct. 10.-The Pro-
hibition party of Alameda County have
sued for an alternative writ of mandate to
compel County Clerk Jordan to file in his
office the certificate of nomination OF the
Prohibition county convention and the
acceptance of the auditing committee
named. Judge Ogden issued an order for
the County Clerk to appear October 13 and
show cause why the writ should not be
issued.
The affidavit sets forth in legal phrase
ology that the Prohibition nominations
were regularly made, that at the last cleo
ton the party polled the necessary per
cent of the votes cast in the State and
county and that certificate OF nornlna-
ton was filed with the County Clerk. 1t
is alleged that the Clerk refused it without
designating any defect writing or omission
why he should not accept it. On the next
day it was presented and refused and Is
still refused by that official. On the Sec
ond presentation of the certificate the
Clerk presented written statement, CIV
ing his reasons for refusing the same. He
set forth that it was not properly attested,
that il did not state that the convention
was an organized assem- olage of delegates
and that it did not give the auditing COM
mittee as required by law.

st. Mary's College expects great things
from its football team and Manager ]. j.
Greeley promises that they shall be forth
coming. Their success with the Santa
Rosa High School has greatly encouraged
them.
In speaking OF the prospects of the team
Manager Greeley said: 1.-The boys have
vastly improved since their last game,
when they easily defeated the Santa Rosa
boys, and much credit is due to Coach
Wyckoff, who is laboring daily to improve
their team work. At present about
eighteen men are endeavoring to make
the team, and from the outlook it will be
a stern contest. The team is not as heavy
as last years eleven it is true, but never
grittier or faster eleven has graced the
portals of st. Mary's than this years
eleven.
Mcclure and Ferdinanz are the candi-
dates for center, and both are quick and
cool men. Brady will hold down lett
guard, and if he continues to play his
dashing game he will rank as one OF the
best men on the coast. Butler and Nc
Guire are trying for left guard and both
are putting up snappy game.
'Cone and Haywards are lighting for
right tackle and are leading each other a
merry chase for the position. Hastings.
one Of the best men on the team, and
Ferry are candidates for left tackle, and
both are tirst-class men. Mahoney and
Flood, both old-time men at the college,
will hold down left end, while either
Armijo or Huff will in all probability be
selected for right end.
Behind the line the star material OF
the team may be found. Captain Mogan,
the right half. is one of the best men that
has ever played in the college eleven.
and as line bucker he has no equal.
Rathgan. the left half, is q well-known
player. For quarter Welsh or Holmes
will be selected, and they are quick, cool
and valuable men. Mccartney, the full
back, is a valuable addition to the team,
and as punter and line bucker he is a
top-notcher."

against Santa Clara College, University OF
