Hold UP THE Count.
California Secretary of State
Says He Will Not Issue
Certificates
TWO COUNTIES FAIL
TO GIVE FULL VOTE

SACRAMENTO. Cal. Nov. g. Sec
rotary Of State Frank c. Jordan said
yesterday that unless certain mis-
takes and omissions discovered in re-
turns from Yuba county and Orange
county are corrected he may withhold
the certificates OF election to prosi-
Dental electors from California.
Should this be done there undouht-
edly will be delay, if not a serious
situation possibly affecting even the
reelection of President Wilson. since
the election depends on the votes of
the thirteen presidential electors
from California.
In order to strengthen the legal tan
gle that has arisen over the cleo
ton returns from Yuba and Orange
counties, the superior courts of
those counties must order the ballot
baxes reopened and the count rem
dered complete. in the opinion OF
James Cremin. State statistician, who
has charge of the official election can
vass.
At the office of Attorney General
Webb the unofficial opinion was
voiced that the Secretary OF State
could not certify 10 the returns for
the State unless the vote OF every pre-
cinct was found correct in the official
canvass
Following is the statement issued
by Jordan concerning the situation:
Under the provisions Of section
1913 Of the political code, it Is the
duty OF the Secretary of State to COM
pare and estimate the votes given for
electors. Such comparison and esti-
mate is to be made as soon as re-
turns are received from all the coun-
ties in the State.

could not ascertain such vote. and,
therefore. the county clerk was un-
able to include it in the returns to

cause Of such Omiss' on.

even the vote Of one elector. why can
not other mistakes be permitted to oc-
cur in other counties and precincts
and thus the will Of the voters be
thwarted and confusion result?
1T is the duty OF the Democratic
and Republican state central commit
tees to take immediate steps 10 have
these mistakes corrected, even II the
aid Of the courts must be invoked.
otherwise the secretary OF state may

CARRANZA'S DELUSIoN

sists upon the withdrawal Of Persh-
irg's forces. with whose aid the re-
vival OF bandit warfare in the ncrfh
might be effectively suppressed.
Whether it be through personal van.
ity or a sense of national pride or
plain hostility TO foreign assistance,
he rejects the surest means Of re-
storing order and gaining the oppor-
tuntty to set Mexico again on its
feet.
Far from harboring any designs oS
borne with Carranza under trying CIR
cumstanceS with extreme patience. II
the Carranza Government gave proof

look ON passively from distance

the Carranza Government is not only
wearing out its strength and endan-

THE EXPLANATION
OF MR.. HUGHES DEFEAT

Only four states west OF the Mis-
sissippi river will go into the elector>
al college with the votes for Charles
E. Hughes as president Of the Unit
ed States. What is the explanation
OF Mr.. Hughes weakness in the west ?
Wiseacres OF the Republican party
are attempting to answer this ques-
ton, but not one has thus far plac-
ed his finger upon the real cause
Tie mistake OF the Republican party
with respect 10 the west rests partly
with Mr.. Hughes himself and partly
with his partisan managers. They
failed to observe that the issue Of
MILITARY preparedness. and the diplo-
matte issues growing cut of the Eur
opean war did not appeal with suf-
ficient force to the western people to
stir their imaginations. The national
Republican party clearly failed to ap-
preciate the genius and the senti-
ments of the west, while Mr.. Hughes
himself an utter stranger to western
institutions and western aspirations,
was not wise enough to gain the
friendship ard the enthusiasm of the
western people by selecting as an
issue the one question which, more
than any other, affects their econo-
mic welfare. Instead Of selecting nn
issue and of urging a constructive
program which would have quickly
aroused the favor CT the western peo-
pie. Mr.. Hughes chose to burden hilm-
self with the advocacy of Clifford Pin
ohot, whose political support far
from exciting enthusiasm for the
cause of Mr.. Hughes in the west,
could not fail to foster a feeling of
bitterness against the Republican
candidate. And it is we'll to say fur
ther that. if the Republican party Of
the east expects to hereafter recov-
err or hold the friendship of the west,
1t must refuse to countenance the pre-.
gram OF Pinchoti SIN which aims to
keep tile west in subjection to the
despottsm of the Atlantic seaboard.
1t must acknowledge that the lands
belong by nature and by right to
those who occupy t. EN-. MIR. Hughes
has lost because he was capable Of
touring the western states without Of
ertng one word of hope to the peo-
pie with respect to their economic
freedom and their sovereign equality
with the Older commonwealths. Mr..
Hughes was silent concerning the
Great Wrong which for ten years has
made tie western people angry
against their eastern cousins. We
know of western Republicans who
refused TO vote for Mr.. Hughes be-
cause he wilfully neglected to discuss
just policy toward the public land
states. His fear of that notorious
blatherskite, Clifford Pinohot, kept
Mr.. Hughes out Of the pres 'dency.-
