SOME POLITICS YET ~ CALIFORNIA
Onicinl Canvass of the Recent EIcc-
tiOn NcnrIy Finished.

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov l2.--With thir-
teen counties unreported the total can
vassed vote OF California shows plurality
for the Mckinley and Hobart electors Of
over $500 votes. This places the vote Of
San Francisco where it was fixed by the
unofficial count a plurality for the re-
publican ticket of 3GS. In no other case Is
any figure but the official one given. The
counties yet to be officially recorded are
Alpine, Fresno, Lassen. Los Angeles Mo
doc, Mono Napa, Plumas. Sacramento.
Santa Clara. Shasta, Sonoma and Trinity.
These are principally counties of small
population. In one or two cases the vote
will be large and the Mckinley majority
surely increased.
The only result so far noted in the legsla-
tive count is the placing of two districts.
one in Santa Clara county, and the Fifty
eighth including Mariposa and Tuolumne,
first credited to the republicans, in the
democratic column.
