Trouble for Clerks. \Reports from the country indicate that town clerks are going to have their hands full today and tomorrow in ‘counting and tabulating the vote in the primaries. The new primary law is not hard to understand in it- self but the second choice provision is proving a puzzle that the election clerks may be unable to unravel for some time. ‘The law is plain on the second choice feature but it takes some skill to be able to work out a tabulating sheet which will make the results plain, * The law says that the lowest better understand before we condemn or commend. THIS IS MY 48th BIRTHDAY. James C. Needham, James C. Needham, one of the vet- eran members of thé California dele- gation in the national house of rep- resentatives, was born September 17, 1864. The interesting event occur- red in an emigrant wagon, in the vicinity of Carson City, Nev., while his parents were en route to Califor- nia. Mr. Needham was graduated from the University of the Pacific in 1886 and from the law school of the University of Michigan three years later. After being admitted to the bar he began the practice of his pro- fession at Modesto, Cal., which place has since been his home. He was elected to congress by the Republi- cans of the Sixth California district in 1899 and has been re-elected six times. Congratulations to: Thomas F.

Then if no one has a major- ity, the next lowest man is dropped and his second choice votes credited. This is continued until some one has a majority. The second choice provision affects only cases where there are three or more names on the same ballot. In cases of but two names, the second choice would have no effect as one would receive a majority of first choice votes. In case of three names, it is quite possible that one may have a majority of first choice votes. The provision gives a man a voice in 1856—The last national conven- tion of the Whigs met at Baltimore. 1862—Battle of Antietam, be- 1V of Spain|ey & tween the Federals under Gen.

St. Paul Dispatch: If little has been said in this country of the sui- cide of General Nogi, the Japanese warrior-hero, beyond the news de- tails of the event, it is because Am- ericans have found themselves wholly unable to arrive at the Japanese point of view. Actuated by what is prounounced in his own empire as mo- tives of the highest patriotism, and unwilling that his emperor and friend should travel alone through the dark shadow of the valley, Gener- al Nogi sets his house in order with calm deliberation and at the sound of the gun announcing the emperor’s funeral, pierces his throat with his sword. There was an obvious effort to avoid the least theatricalism in the act. It seemed as sincere as it was mature in consideration. Despair or a diseased mentality would be the verdict should such an event occur in America. Added hero- ism seems the sequence in Japan. Following upon the immortal glories Nogi brought to Japanese arms in the war with Russia, his suicide seems to have entitied him to apoth- cosis. Japan pauses until it shall decide upon posthumous honors wor- thy the hero of Manchuria, and meanwhile Nogi is not officially dead. The nation waits in an ecstacy of ad- miration. We cannot sense this feeling in America. It appeals, where we stop to analyze it, as under-development. It seems inconsistent with the con- ception of the Nipponese brought by events of the last few years. To most people it will relegate Japan to a more twilighted zone of civilization. But we must not measure Japan by the tape of our own misunder- standing. We must not condemn be- cause we cannot fully appreciate. Far as Japan has emerged into the sunlight of civilization, it has brought with it its own modifying conceptions and it is difficult to de- part from traditions honored through centuries. We are getting new lights on the Japanese national char- acter, but thus far they seem to have been mere glimpses. The un- doubted patriotism and unquestion- ed devotion which prompted General Nogi to this act, raise the curtain a little higher and disclose another phase of Orientalism which we must * fully given. * ‘Write an Ad For Us .GEO.
