and Yuba Counties,
Plan Announced.

g CACRAMENTO, Cal, Nov. 22.-
~ Secretary of State Frank C. Jor-
dan predicted today that until GER
tain mistakes and omissions discov-
cred in returns of the election from
Yuba county and Orange county are
corrected he will withhold the GER
tificates OF election to presidential
electors from California.
Should this be done there undoubt-
odly will be delay if not a serious sit

MIA.
Following is a statement issued by
Jordan concerning the situation:
Under the provisions of section
1913 Of the political code il is the
duty of the secretary OF state to COM
pare and estimate the votcs given for
electors Such comparison and esti-
mate Is to be made as soon as returns
are received from all the counties in
the state.

each, but the votes received Ly Loren
A. Handley, Democratic elector, have
not been credited because the election
clerks failed to include the vote in
their returns to the supervisors, the
supervisors could not ascertain such
vote and therefore the county clerk
was unable to include It in the re-
turns to this office. The returns from
this county are Incomplete.
Worse In Orange.
'In the county of Orange a more
glaring case OF dlsfranchisement is
presented All the voters of Orange

Gated by their votes. Because the

DR.. SMITH ASKS FOR
FARM LOAN CHAPTER

DR. c ]. Smith OF Portland, for
merly OF this city, yesterday as pres
ident of the Bankers Mortgage Co.,
made application to the secretary Of
the treasury to incorporate as joinI
stock company under the provisions
OF the recently enacted federal farm
loan act
The Bankers Mortgage corporation
is the first agency to take such action
in oregon, and undoubtedly one OF
the first, il not the first private farm
loan concerns in the United states To
join hands with the national rural
credits plan.
Under the terms Of the national ru-
raj credits law. any group OF ndivid-
uals with $25O,000 capital may or
ganize joint stock bank, issue bonds
ana make farm loans The interest
margin between the bonds and the
loans 10 farmers cannot be more than
! per cent In other words, If the
farm loans are made at per cent the
bonds will be per cent
This / per cent margin is expected
to pay the operating expenses Of the
company and to pay a profit to the
stockholders.
Another attractive feature is the
provision for selling bonds in small
denominations-S25, $50 and 800.
This is to make them acceptable for
small investors, which doubtless they
will be with the guarantee of the gov
ernment behind them.
The joint stock bank and the fed
eral bank each will conduct a separ-
ate line of business. They will not
conflict with one another. The loans
Of the federal bank are limited to
$4,000 to any one individual; of the
joint stock bank there is no such
limit.
Among the principal persons inter-
ested in the plan are Dr. c. J. Smith,
who was democratic candidate for
governor two years ago; John F DAILY

pany; Edgar w. Smith, general man
