AN ERROR IN THE BALLOTS What appears to us to be a very serious error in the sample ballots now being sent out to the voters of this township, is the omission of one blank line in the places for voting for Justices of the Peace and Constables. The law requires that where two candidates are to be voted for, two blank lines must be left after the printed names of the regular nominees. Two Justices of the Peace and two Constables are to be elected in this township and only one blank line is printed upon the sample ballot before us. Singularly enough, where only one Supervisor is to be elected in this Supervisorial district, two blank lines have been printed upon the ballots. These three separate errors serve to throw out of their numerical sequence all the remaining numbers upon the ballot, and all the Constitutional amendments and the proposition to take the sense of the voters upon the question of licensing and regulating the sale of liquors in this county, are affected and thrown out of their rotation. The law provides that each separate name, blank line, Constitutional amendment or other proposition to be voted upon shall be numbered in rotation, and that sample ballots must be similar in design to the ballots used on election day. This vitiation of the numerical sequence of the nine Constitutional amendments, as well as the vote upon the liquor question, is a most serious one for the contemplation of the voters of this township, and if the error should be corrected in the official ballots, what about the difference between the sample ballots and those used at the election? Here is a pretty mess for the consideration of the voters at the ove of the election. Will there be a question as to the legality of the vote in this township on Constables and Justices of the Peace and on the Constitutional amendments and the liquor question? Break the news to us gently! HOW TO VOTE ON THE AMENDMENTS. However busy a man may be with his wife at present. This is an infamous and barefaced attempt at salary grabbing. Do the voters wish to saddle themselves with extra expense for these precious persons? We think not. Be sure you put your cross in the square opposite No on this amendment. Vote against it every time! There are 163 names, blank lines and amendments upon the ticket, but the sample ballot which we have at this writing before us has but one blank line each devoted to the Justices of the Peace and Constables of this township, whereas the law requires that there shall be two. The last item upon the ticket reads, "Shall the sale of liquor be licensed and regulated in Orange county?" If you want the liquor traffic licensed and "regulated" by the Supervisors, vote yes; if you do not want it regulated and licensed, vote no. What does all this mean? Already a difference of opinion has arisen regarding this matter, and it will undoubtedly be thrown into the courts for final settlement. The Prohibitionists claim that to vote no is tantamount to voting for prohibition, while others competent to judge have given the opinion that to vote no will be to take the power of licensing and regulating the liquor traffic out of the hands of the Supervisors altogether. Which does this ambiguous proposition mean? The ballots are somewhat of a voluminous affair, and it will be a wise voter who knows his ballot when the election officers come to count it in the evening. VOTE FOR FRANK STEADMAN FOR TAX COLLECTOR. From every section of Orange county that Frank Steadman has visited and addressed the people on his campaign tour through the county comes the most enthusiastic of assurances that his reception at the hands of the people has been such as to leave not a particle of doubt of his triumphant election next Tuesday. Mr. Steadman is no ordinary office-seeker, going about making a desperate appeal to the voters of the county to keep him in office, or to make a place for him at the public crib. He is no ordinary stump speaker. His speeches carry the weight of conviction with them, going as they do direct to the hearts of the people, and spreading broadcast throughout the land the principle that in the economical administration of the public offices rests the very perpetuity of the government. Mr. Steadman stands pledged to the most rigid economy in the expenditures of his office—as at present. A WORD ABOUT THE SUGAR BOUNTY. The Santa Ana Herald still insists that the Chino sugar factory must shut down unless the bounty on sugar shall be restored. If the Herald were not so hasty in its overzealous desire for the dissemination of any illogical stuff that happens along, for what under a mistaken notion it believes to be good for its party, it might possibly appear in better light with those of its readers who happen to know a thing or two about subjects it discusses. That the Chino refinery is in any danger of shuttering down on account of the abolition of the sugar bounty, is a proposition so absurd that it is strange indeed that it should be anywhere seriously entertained. The factory has just turned out, say ten million pounds of refined sugar, which at 52 cents per pound, would yield them $575,000. This is the price in San Francisco—at Chino it is a shade lower. The price in February was, for instance, 45 and while a month ago we got twenty pounds of sugar for a dollar, now we get fifteen. Simultaneously with the abolition of the bounty, the price of sugar has advanced until it is now, under the influence of the protective ad valorum duty, higher than it has been at any time during the past several years. The Sugar Trust, with which the Chino factory operates cordially, were quick to take advantage of the tariff, and the price of sugar has risen on one hand as the bounty has disappeared upon the other, so that the profits of the refinerythe coming year, which with its decreased payments for beets, will naturally be greatly increased over its schedule of profits ruling this year. The horizontal reduction in rates contented by the refinerythe next season will save the refineryon the basis of 45,000 tons of 16 per cent boots,something like $27,000and ifthe accruage shall be increased 50 percent next year as is contemplated,the saving will not be shortof $40,000.Will standthe loss consequent uponthe abolitionofthe bounty?

However busy a man may be with his private affairs or with party politics, he should not neglect to give sufficient attention to the proposed constitutional amendments to be able to vote upon them intelligently at the election. We are asked to give a brief statement of the intent of each amendment again, and we give them by their numbers and titles as they appear upon the official ballot: "Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 8" is the first amendment on the ticket. It amends Section 1 of Article 2 of the Constitution, so as to prohibit all persons from voting who cannot read the Constitution in English and write their names, except such as are prevented by physical disability, persons now having the right to vote and men sixty years of age and upwards. This amendment ought of course to carry. The second amendment is "Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 14," and relates to the formation of new counties, and provides that no new county can be formed which shall reduce any county to a population of 8,000, a new county to 5,000, nor a boundary line established within five miles of the county seat of any county divided; and every new county to be liable for a just proportion of the debts of the old. This amendment seems to be all right, and should carry. "Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 7," is the third, and proposes a new section to the Constitution exempting fruit and nut bearing trees under the age of four years, and grapevines under three years, from taxation. This ought to carry. Young trees and vines are not a source of profit to the planter, and hence should not be taxed. They are a constant drain upon the farmer's finances, yielding no return until they pass the period of this proposed exemption. The amendment should carry. "Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 12," the next on the list, should be defeated. It provides that "aliens acquiring real estate hereafter may be subject to a legislative statute disposing of the same." This is ambiguous and unsatisfactory, and the amendment should be defeated. We apprehend that the object aimed at was the abolishment of the practice of acquiring large landed holdings by foreign syndicates for speculative purposes, but as we have none of such to contend with, we need no such innovation as the amendment proposes. We should interpose no bar to the investment of foreign capital here; on the contrary we should welcome all immigrants of the desirable class. The amendment is vicious, ambitious and unsatisfactory, and should should be corrected in the othos ballots, what about the difference between the sample ballots and those used at the election? Here is a pretty mess for the consideration of the voters at the eve of the election. Will there be a question as to the legality of the vote in this township on Constables and Justices of the Peace and on the Constitutional amendments and the liquor question?

We should interpose no bar to the investment of foreign capital here; on the contrary we should welcome all immigrants of the desirable class. The amendment is vicious, ambiguous and unsatisfactory, and should be voted down. Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 17 strikes out that part of the law providing in cities of more than 100,000 inhabitants, for two Boards of Supervisors or two houses of legislation. This refers to San Francisco, and so far as we can see is unobjectionable, and we shall vote for it. "Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 7" increases the members of the Board of Equalization from each existing Congressional District. We have been unable to find any good reason for this change, and as we are getting along quite well with the present Board of Equalization, shall vote against the amendment. We apprehend the amendment is aimed at the "amelioration" of the condition of the San Francisco taxpayers, the greatest tax shirkers in the State, who set up an annual howl against the labors of the present Board of Equalization, who have uniformly refused to reduce their assessments to the absurdly low figure proposed by them. If this be true, the amendment should be buried out of sight. San Francisco must pay its just share of the taxes for the support of the Commonwealth. "Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 16" proposes the exemption of free libraries and free museums from taxation. This seems to be all right and should probably carry. "Assembly Constitutional Amendment No. 31" increases the State Board of Education by adding thereto the President and Professor of Pedagogics of the State University. As the State Board of Education draws no salary as such, the question of expenses which is the first one naturally to suggest itself to the voter not otherwise interested in the subject—does not enter into the question, and the board may consequently be increased if the voters say so. "Senate Constitutional Amendment No. 20" is the last one on the list, and it strikes us that we have referred to it before. It provides for an increase in the salary of members of the Legislature to $1,000 per session instead of $8 per day for sixty days, this amiable gentleman as Tax Collector. As we have shown, his office is one where the most reckless expenditure of public moneys may by scheming be brought under the letter while it is odiously repugnant to the spirit of the law. If Mr. Freeman shall be elected to the office which he has so far unmistakably been shown to have mismanaged, let the taxpayers depend upon it that the extravagance of the past year will not be a "marker" for that which is in store for them. If this unfortunate pass should by any fortuitous combination of circumstances be brought about—which for the honor of the county the God of hosts prevent—we hazard the prediction that the official rascality of Mr. Freeman's administration will be quite the darkest page in the annals of Orange county. Why cannot Freeman follow the example of the other officials in the practice of economy? He has not done it, and in his very disregard for the outlay of his office ought he to be relegated to that well earned and impenetrable obscurity whence in an evil hour he was called upon by a faction of his party to emerge. Do the people of the county care to perpetuate in office this man who brazenly asks that his official acts be disregarded, and that he be retained in office solely that he be given another four years picnic at the public crib or himself and associates? Mr. Steadman's speeches have the true ring of economy—of able and incorruptible men in office—of placing the affairs of public office upon a businesslike and economical basis. Mr. Freeman simply says, "Keep me in office! Keep me slock and fat at the public crib!" With his official record before the people he dare not talk of economy. His only argument is a long plaintive wall to be continued in office. Yet he has his coterie of active supporters eager no doubt to sacrifice the whole ticket to get him into office, and active work must be done throughout the whole county to defeat him. Let every Republican throughout the county who contemplates casting his ballot against this incompetent official, get his neighbor to do likewise, and make it two! Mr. Steadman has been a resident of this city and county long enough to be known when compared to Freeman, as indisputably the man for this important office. As hundreds of Republicans are flocking to his standard from all over the county, let his neighbors at home turn out and give him an enthusiastic majority on his way to victory! He has been a public spirited citizen, free with his purse to help along any movement calculated to promote the public welfare, and he should receive the unanimous support of his friends and neighbors. Frank Steadman for Tax Collector: We should like to see the restoration to the bounty system for one reason—the portunity it affords the farmers to get together and form themselves into co-operative companies, as contemplated here to reap the benefits of the bounty system now rolling wealth into the pockets of Sugar Trust. Let us have a bounty term of say twenty years, but let each tory be limited to bounty payment three, four, or at most five years. A reby that time ought to get in out of these and be in a fair way to return comfort not to say very handsome dividends or capital invested. What is the matter with our co-op refinery, is asked? It it be not built this season, we doubt if it will ever be Sugar is in a rising market, and competent to judge tell us that before weeks it is bound to go to a higher Say the increase in price by the next making campaign be a cent per pound hazard the conviction it will be all off the increased return on ten million dollar will be $100,000; and then in best payments, $40,000. He $140,000 more than the refinery has in these two items this year. This may give them eighty per cent profit, but think it shows the absolute absence the statement that the mill will close bounty be not restored. JOE NICHOLS FOR SHERIFF If Joo Nichols should be defeated Tuesday—of which we however think is not much danger—the Republican ought never to nominate a candidate Sheriff in this county again. Joe is doubtful the boat detective and peace officer, and his name as an appraiser has brought him fame out the State. He ought to be elected handsome majority. His opponent elected two years ago by Republican and now that he has enjoyed two times office, can scarcely expect Republican help him into a third term when capable gentleman has been nominated party against him. Joe Nichols man for Sheriff. Lacy has made officer, but he has had the office two weeks believe in voting for a good Ro who has never had the office, and in tent in every way to fill it, to voting a Democrat in for a third term. Joe for Sheriff! SECRETARY OF STATE WAITE is idle the worry and confusion of his cause defeat for nomination in the conven ABOUT THE SUGAR BOUNTY. Nina Herald still insists that the factory must shut down uninterrupted on sugar shall be restored. There not so haasty in its overreaction to the dissemination of any that happens along, for what taken notion it believes to bearty, it might possibly appear with those of its readers who know a thing or two about discuses. That the Chino rey danger of shutting down on the abolition of the sugar bounty, so absurd that it is strange that should be anywhere seriously. The factory has just turned million pounds of refined sugar, cents per pound, would yield 1000. This is the price in San Chino it is a shade lower. February was, for instance, 45 a month ago we got twenty sugar for a dollar, now we get multaneously with the abolition of the price of sugar has advanced snow, under the influence of the valor duty, higher than it any time during the past several years. Trust, with which the Chino operates cordially, were quick to stage of the tariff, and the price is risen on one hand as the bounty披 upon the other, so that the refinery the coming year, what increased payments for beets, will increasingly increase over its schedule calling this year. Horizontal reduction in rates contemning the refinery the next season will refinery, on the basis of 45,000 tons spent beets, something like $27,000, macroce shall be increased 50 per year as is contemplated, the savet be short of $40,000. Who loss consequent upon the abolition ofity? The millionaire sugar manufor the farmers? Reckoning the sugar at a cent a pound, and takconsideration this saving of $40,000ments for beets, the Chino refinery left in such an awful "hole" as God's telegraphed interview would believe. Chino refinery stands in no immeerer of closing its doors on account going off of the bounty, and we have for the honor of the Republican party journals from Nebraska parado this bogie man in their subsequent efforts to get his name upon the ticket, may be read the nature of the malady that carried him off. Mr. Waite was a capable official, keeping the expenses of his administration down to a minimum figure, for which he had incurred the enmity of the politicians. His death removes the only obstacle to the election of Mr. Brown, the Republican nominee for the office. HOW TO VOTE If seven voters out of 115 voting exercised the elective franchise unintelligibly at the electric light election on Saturday, when but a single proposition was to be voted upon, what may we expect in the same line at next Tuesday's election, when double the number of votes will probably be cast, and with the ballots containing 163 numbers, out of which 43 must be balloted for? There really should be but a very few ballots cast this way; when the intelligence of our people is taken into consideration, there should not be one. If voters will bear in mind that in order to vote legally they must stamp a cross in the square opposite the name or the proposition they desire to vote for, there would not be a single ballot rejected when the election officers come to count the returns Tuesday evening. Do not use a penil, pen or outside implement in marking your ballot. If you do your vote will be thrown out. Use the official stamp to be found in the booth, and stamp your cross in the square opposite the name or proposition you desire to vote for! This ought to be plain enough! Vote the whole ticket, and do not neglect the amendments. Some are good, and ought to carry; others are bad, and should be defeated. They are all explained elsewhere. The election officers will hand you a ballot as you come into the polling place. Take this into the booth, where you will find the stamp for marking your ballot. Take the stamp in your right hand, holding the ballot gently but firmly on the place fixed for it in the booth with the left, and then with a gentle delicacy of touch, stamp a cross in the square on the right of each name or proposition you wish to vote for. Can you do that? If you can't, you had better not try to vote, for your vote will not be counted if it is stamped any other way. WE CONGRATULATE THE PEOPLE.

JOSEPH BAC DEALER IN FURNITU Repairing D Funeral Direct Store In Backs Building (next to irrigation office), Los Angeles street. WE CONGRATULATE THE PEOPLE. We congratulate the people of the city on the practically unanimous vote polled on Saturday in favor of putting in electric lights. It is a move in the right direction, and we are confident that not a single voter in the city will ever have cause to regret the action of the people as expressed at the polls. And when the town shall be lighted up with splendid arc and incandescent lights, and the system proves itself to be not only thoroughly satisfactory, but so exceedingly cheap besides, we apprehend that the five persons voting against the lights will regret that they voted on the losing side. But no one denies them the right to vote according to their conviction, but having been fairly defeated, we expect them to turn in and help us assist in imparting to the new lights that degree of usefulness which our importance as a city demands. THE GAZETTE TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR With this issue the Gazette enters upon the twenty-fifth year of its continuous publication. Other papers may come, and other papers may go, but we go on forever. For many years past, on the recurrence of the anniversary of the paper's birth, we have been wont to style The Gazette the oldest paper but one in Southern California; but as the only paper in Southern California that antedated us (and that only by a few months) has lost its identity in its consolidation with another journal, we make bold to proclaim ourselves the oldest paper in Southern California. The best indication of what The Gazette will be in the time to come is the success which it has already achieved. It is a wide-awake journal, with plenty of savvy, written in English, printing the news, and setting the pace for Orange county journalism that gives its colicky contemporaries cramps in the stomach to keep up with it. The Gazette takes pride in printing all the news, and commenting freely thereon, and while during its extended career it has had occasion as conservator of the public morals of this community to say harah things which in the joyousness of the contemplation of our twenty-fifth birthday we are free to say it had rather have left unsaid, nevertheless it does not follow that we purpose in future permitting the guilty to escape; but on the contrary we shall keep a rod in pickle for wrong-doers of high and low degree and administer to them virtuous whacks with due vehemence and impartiality. We have always had great faith in the future of our city and the surrounding country, and never more so than at present. Anaheim is enjoying a healthy growth, we have the richest section on earth about us, and there is no denying the fact that the amount of bonds to be issued is Fifteen Hundred (41,500) Dollars, of the denomination of Fifteen Hundred (81,500) Dollars each, and to bear interest at the rate of seven per cent per annum.

Joo Nichols should be defeated next day—of which we however think there is much danger—the Republican party never to nominate a candidate for county, and his name as an apprehender criminals has brought him fame through the State. He ought to be elected by a some majority. His opponent wasted two years ago by Republican votes, now that he has enjoyed two terms in office, can scarcely expect Republicans to him into a third term when such a gentleman has been nominated by party against him. Joo Nichols is the for Sheriff. Lacy has made a good man, but he has had the office twice, and believe in voting for a good Republican, has never had the office, and is competed in every way to fill it, to voting to keep democrat in for a third term. Joe Nichols Sheriff! CRETARY OF STATE WAITE is dead. In worry and confusion of his canvas, his hat for nomination in the convention and our twenty-fifth birthday we are free to say it had rather have left unsaid, nevertheless it does not follow that we purpose in future permitting the guilty to escape; but on the contrary we shall keep a rod in pickle for wrong-doers of high and low degree and administer to them virtuous whacks with due vehemence and impartiality. We have always had great faith in the future of our city and the surrounding country, and never more so than at present. Anaheim is enjoying a healthy growth, we have the richest section on earth about us, and there is no denying the fact that the town and countryside will give a good account of itself in the development of its material prosperity in the coming time. The Gazette makes its bow modestly on this happy recurrence of the anniversary of its natal day, and assures its readers that it purposes maintaining in future the lead which by hard work and attention to duty it has so eminently achieved in the past. OLIVER Schumacher’s name appears upon the ballots twice as a candidate for Constable, once as “Oliver Schumacher, Democrat,” and once as “Oliver H. Schumacher, Republican.” Supposing the intelligent voter shall cast his ballot for him both times—will Oliver ask to be permitted to count two votes for himself? SAMMY ARMOR is looking up the law of libel. Sammy ought to look up what the law says about converting a public office into a private snap. CHICAGO, Oct. 30—As a sequal to an interesting World’s Fair romance which was widely published and in which Letter Carrier Rosen figured as the angry father searching with an arsenal of weapons for the cowboy lover of his daughter, a decision just rendered in the divorce division of the Circuit Court will be of interest. Gertrude Rosen, who eloped last spring with Andrew W. Gormley, one of Buffalo Bill’s cowboys, has been granted a divorce by Judge Tuthill and a $5 alimony was charged against the husband. The girl told how she had run away with the cowboy and gone to Milwaukee to be married because her father had refused his consent. After they had returned to Chicago she said her husband sent her out on the streets to earn a living. He had never done a day’s work, she said, since they were married, and had spent what little money she received from her father. Blows, kicks and curses had been his only recognition of her and she had endured them as long as she could. “Whilst with her Lightning stories told As thro’ Havanas clouds of gold the thunder storms of laughter rolled.” Jessen & Dorge keep them.
