The Weekly Gazette. ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY. HENRY KUCHEL, CHARLES KUCHEL, Editors and Proprietors. THURSDAY.....NOVEMBER 17, 1898 RESULT OF THE ELECTION. The official returns of the election in Orange county give Governor-elect Gage a plurality of 211 votes over James G. Maguire. Jacob Neff has 113 plurality over Hutchinson. Orange county salutes the next Governor of the State. It was among the first in line for him, and it stood by him until the votes were in the ballot box on election day. James C. Needham has a majority over Dr. Castle for Representative in Congress of 392 votes. The official vote of the Seventh Congressional District has not yet been issued, but enough is known to justify the claim of the Republican State Central Committee, that Mr. Needham is elected by a majority exceeding 1000. The new Congressman began his campaign in Anaheim, having promised the delegates to the Newport convention that if consistent with the wishes of the Congressional Committee he would open his campaign in this city. That he has been successful in his fight argues that Anaheim must be a good place to start from in politics. H. W. Chynoweth defeats Dr. Menges for the Assembly by a majority of 421 votes. His record as an incorruptible legislator, coupled with his economical measures while a member of the last assembly, made him popular with the voters, and he ran well throughout the county. Theo. Lacy defeats Joseph C. Nichols for Sheriff by 185 votes. Nichols had several factors to contend with, one of them being the Settlers' League of the San Joaquin, which questioned Irvine's title to the ranch. A number of them "squatted" upon the ranch, and after the decision of the Court upholding the legality of Irvine's title, Nichols dispossessed them; having to use force in one instance. The temperance people were against him for his attending a picnic at Santiago Canyon last summer, where beer was sold, as they claimed, contrary to the law. They criticized Nichols for not arresting the whole outfit, and favored Lacy, who hauled the beer up to the canyon. Company L boys were opposed to him eight in the county, giving the vote on State and county officers, were being posted up as rapidly as they came in. By 8:30 these twenty-one bulletins were all before the people, and the crowd, which began gathering at 6 o'clock, increased to upwards of 100, eager to get the latest news from the county. The result in the State and nation had been learned by the night bulletins, and the voters thirsted for information as to the result in the county. Paper and pencil was taken out, and the vote of this or that candidate taken from the bulletins and tabulated. Those who kept track of the fight on Sheriff saw that Nichols was running behind, and when the returns from Westminster and Garden Grove were bulletined, shortly after noon, it was seen that the gallant Sheriff was in all probability defeated. Those who kept the record on Surveyor noted that Santa Ana knifed Sherwood violently; and this might be said in the case of Jennings for Tax Collector. It was seen that Walter Robinson was falling behind in the race for Treasurer, and that Dr. Clark was being closely pressed in the race by Dr. Mills. The crowd about the bulletin board grew in numbers until the sidewalk was all but impassable, and soon the complete returns from all but two of the precincts in the county were bulletined, giving the citizens the results of the State and county votes. The crowd continued on the sidewalk until dark, when the paper went to press, and all hands were eager to get a copy of the tabulated returns. THE GAZETTE was as usual the first paper in the county to print a tabulated statement of the county returns. The three Santa Ana papers "syndicated" on one election table, each of the three papers using the same table. The totals were not figured up by any Santa Ana paper until the table appeared on Thursday evening, while THE GAZETTE's figures were footed up on Wednesday evening. This morning we present the complete official returns of the vote in Orange county. Those Republican newspapers that have been rising in their virtuous wrath and denouncing Curry, the Republican candidate for Secretary of State, as an unfit candidate, in the light of the returns which indicated his defeat, may now have an opportunity of feasting themselves upon abundant dawn now that the returns point... of them being the Settlers' League of the San Joaquin, which questioned Irvine's title to the ranch. A number of them "squatted" upon the ranch, and after the decision of the Court upholding the legality of Irvine's title, Nichols dispossessed them; having to use force in one instance. The temperance people were against him for his attending a picnic at Santiago Canyon last summer, where beer was sold, as they claimed, contrary to the law. They criticized Nichols for not arresting the whole outfit, and favored Lacy, who hauled the beer up to the canyon. Company L boys were opposed to him on account of the part Nate Ulm took in Company L while at the Presidio in May; and altogether it surprised one that Nichols should have received any votes at all. He has made a good sheriff; we hope Laoy will do as well. Billy Beckett sends Wiley Harris to grass by a majority of 814 votes; and Billy wasn't feeling well, either. Billy's eloquence in his speeches made in the canvass throughout the county conspired to the result. Billy is a spell-hinder when it comes to speechifying, and he runs like a kiote when it comes to elections. W. M. Scott laid out Deacon Cooke to the tune of 909 votes. Scott ought to be ashamed of himself. But the people wanted Scott, and so the result of the balloting proved disastrous to the hopes of Deacon Cooke. Capt. Hall defeated Mr. Littell by a margin if 616 votes, and it wasn't the Captain's day for votes, either. J. C. Joplin defeated Walter Robinson for Treasurer by 472 votes. Robinson was cut to death by Santa Ana Republicans, who also cut Amos Jennings for Tax Collector and G. W. Sherwood for Surveyor, the former being defeated by Fred Robinson by 312 votes, and the latter by Capt. Finley by 678 votes. What the result of this eternal cutting of Anaheim men by Santa Ana will result in is not difficult to fortell; unless the practice is put a stop to, there will be no candidates from this section in the future. The Republicans of this vicinity will give Santa Ana free rein at the conventions; let it nominate three-fourths of the officers (which was what it asked for at the last convention), and then it will be time enough for us to have our fun with the tomahawk. Dr. Clark defeats Dr. Mills by the narrow margin of 53 votes. Clark was knifed at the Santa Ana polls, and but for his great run in his home precinct would likely enough have been defeated. We warn the Santa Ana Republicans that unless this indiscriminate cutting of our candidates be put a stop to there will come a time when there will be grashing of teeth at the county seat as there is now undeserved defeat to reckon with in some of the outlying precincts. Roger Williams defeats Horace Head for District Attorney by 227 votes, Frank Vegely defeats Jake Ross for Assessor by 241 votes, and Prof. Greeley defeats Profs. Taylor and Welch by the comfortable plurality of 409 votes. And so endeth the first lesson. The large number of citizens who The total were not figured up by any Santa Ana paper until the table appeared on Thursday evening, while THE GAZETTE'S figures were footed up on Wednesday evening. This morning we present the complete official returns of the vote in Orange county. THOSE Republican newspapers that have been rising in their virtuous wrath and denouncing Curry, the Republican candidate for Secretary of State, as an unfit candidate, in the light of the returns which indicated his defeat, may now have an opportunity of feasting themselves upon abundant crow, now that the returns point to his election. Curry is more sinned against than sinning, and Mugwump Republican newspapers have little license in echoing the charges of the Democratic Examiner against them. Curry Probably Elected, SAN FRANCICO, Nov. 15.-The Western Union Telegraph company has issued a statement correcting the figures given out by the company Friday last on the result of the election in this State for the office of Secretary of State. The returns of 1868 precincts out of a total in the State of 2407, give Curry (Rep.) 104,366; Thompson (Dem.) 100,025. Of the number of precincts heard from, fully 25 per cent, have not returned figures on the Secretary of State vote, but from the returns gathered by the Democratic State Central Committee has given up hope of Thompson's election and admits the success of Curry. Lord Cromer. To read Egyptian-French accounts of Lord Cromer, you would picture him a stiff browed, hard mouthed, oynical, taciturn martinet. To look at the real man, you would say that he gave half of his time to sleep and the other half to laughing. Lolling in his carriage through trees of Cairo, or lighting a fresh cigarette in his office, dressed in a loose fitting gray tweed and a striped shirt, with ruddy face, short white hair and short white mustache, with gold rimmed eyeglasses half hiding eyes half closed, mellow of voice and fluent of speech—is this the perfidious Baring, you ask yourself, whom Frenchmen detest and strive to imitate?—this the terrible Lord Cromer whom khedives obey and tremble. His demeanor is genial and courteous. His talk is easy, open, shrewd, humorous. His subordinates admire, respect, even love him. He is the mildest manered man that ever sacked prime minister. Only somehow you still felt the steel stiffening the velvet. He is genial, but he would be a bold man who would take a liberty with him; he talks, only not for publication; he is loved, yet he must always be obeyed. Velvet as long as he can, steel as soon as he must—that is Lord Cromer. — "Egypt in 1898," by G. W. Stevens. A Musical Sentry.

Chandle Orange...32 THE large number of citizens who crowded about the bulletins posted in front of this office by us on Wednesday was a particularly gratifying evidence that the pains taken to bulletin the county election returns speedily and correctly was appreciated by the people. THE GAZETTE bulletins kept the people posted on the result of the election in the county, Supervisor district and township officers. There was no other attempt made in town to post bulletins of the election. The first returns of the county vote were received at this office from Yorba and Olive precincts as early as 1 o'clock on Wednesday morning. They were valuable more for the vote on Supervisor than for the general result in the county. At 6 o'clock the Buena Park returns were brought in, and a tabulation of the figures on Supervisor, with the partial count in town and at West Anaheim up to that hour in the morning, showed that Potter led McWilliams by more than a hundred votes. Olive gave McWilliams a majority of 19, Yorba gave Potter a majority of 22, and Buena Park (Potter's home precinct) gave him the handsome majority of 52. In Anaheim the count showed Potter some 30 votes ahead, and at West Anaheim he was 20 ahead. Reports from Fullerton showed that he was at one time 30 votes ahead, although McWilliams crept up on him a few votes in the final ballots. Potter's lead was such that he could not be headed off, and the complete figures of his election, with a majority of 143, were bulleted shortly after noon; the count at Fullerton not having been completed until that hour. Meantime complete bulletins from twenty-one precincts out of the twenty- A Musical Sentry. The author of "With Plumer In Matebeleland" tells of some humorous sentry incidents. A trooper had gone down to a water hole after the sentries were posted. On returning he was challenged, but, not knowing the countersign, the sentry refused to let him pass. "Hang it all, you know me well enough! What's the use of playing the fool at this time of night?" pleaded the soldier. "Can't be helped. You know the orders, and unless you give the counter-sign there you are, and there you will remain!" restored the sentry. And he did remain there until the visiting officer admitted him in the small hours of the morning. On another occasion the countersign was "Nordenfeldt," the name of a certain kind of gun. A soldier, on approaching the picket, had a heavy recollection that some sort of a gun had been mentioned as the countersign and in answer to the challenge gave "Maxim." "That's not it," replied the sentry. "Oh, well, the other kind of gun!" hazarded the man. "Well, that's near enough. Pass in," said the sentry. An orderly officer, on going his rounds, was astonished to find the sentry singing at him in this fashion: "Hi tiddle de hi ti! Who goes there?" "What do you mean, sir, by challenging in that fashion?" asked the officer. "The last time I was on duty, sir, I was told to challenge in a more musical voice, and that's the only tune I know, sir," replied the sentry. How to Look Good. Good looks are really more than skin deep, depending entirely on a healthy condition of all the vital organs. If the liver is inactive, you have a billious look; if your stomach is disordered you have a dyspeptic look; if your kidneys are affected you have a pinched look. Secure good health, and you will surely have good looks. "Electric Bitters" is a good Alterative and Tonic.

Mr. Gladstone began as the defender of the Irish church; he ended by demolishing it. No one ever opposed more vehemently the extension of British influence in Egypt, but it was under his government we bombarded the Alexandra fort, fought the battle of Tel-el-Kebir and reduced Egypt to the condition of a British satrapy. He was the most conspicuous advocate of peace with Russia when Lord Beaconsfield was in office, until Constantinople was in danger. Five years later he left office, after having brought us to the very verge of war with Russia for the sake of Penjdeh. One year he clapped Mr. Parnell into prison, the next he proposed to make over to him the government of Ireland, and then again he deposed him from the leadership. Yet he was always consistent and anxious for his consistency. Circumstances alter oasis, and Mr. Gladstone was not above being taught by events — W. T. Stead in Review of Reviews. SIGSBEE’S PRIZE. Gets a Generous Slice of the Allotment of Spanish War Money. NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—A dispatch from Washington says Capt. Sigsbee, who commanded the Maine, will be the first officer of the navy to secure an allotment of prize money on account of the war with Spain. The Judge advocate-general of the navy has transmitted to the fourth auditor of the treasury the legal documents in the case of the British collier Restormel, which was captured by Capt. Sigsbee when in command of the auxiliary cruiser St. Paul off Santiago, to which port the steamer was bound in an attempt to deliver coal to Cervera’s squadron. Had the mission of the Restormel been successful it is not likely that the Spanish vessels would have remained so long as they did in Santiago Harbor, and probably they would have escaped before Admiral Sampson had an opportunity to establish the systematic blockade which eventually resulted in their swift destruction. Although the Restormel was released by the American prize court, her cargo was declared within the prize statutes, and was appraised at $13,000. According to law half of this amount goes to the government, and the other half to the officers and crew of the vessel making the capture. The Treasury Department is fully prepared to make payments at once, and within a few days it is expected that the government checks will be mailed to all aboard St. Paul who are entitled to participate in the scale bugwashing for sale end of the pest.

During his long stay at St. Petersburg he played by command before the Czar Nicholas, who entered into conversation with a bystander in the course of the piece. Donizetti at once broke off the performance. "Why have you stopped?" asked the autocrat. "Sire," was the reply, "when the czar is speaking everybody else should be silent." Pessimism.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.—Local entomologists have been interested by the news that has come by way of Washington of the result of a shipment of beetles made by Dr. Howard, an entomologist of the United States and the Superintendent of Agriculture to the Department of Agriculture of Portugal. The beetle in question is known to science as Novius Cardinalia. Its home is in Australia, from which country it was introduced into California several years ago by the Board of Horticulture of that State. It was hoped that it would be a prey upon the mite or fluted scale that was ravaging the orange groves of California. The hope was well founded and the beetle, which is the natural enemy of the scale insect, is believed to have saved the California orange industry from annihilation. It ate up the scale bugs with rapidity, checking the multiplication and causing an end of the pest. According to the Washington dispatch, a like result has taken place in Portugal. Dr. Howard received an appeal for aid from the Portuguese authorities in September of 1896, when the scale pest was ravaging the orange and lemon groves along the River Tagus. In October of last year, Dr. Howard secured from the State Board of Horticulture of California, about sixty specimens of Australian beetle in adult state and some in larvae.
