Distribution of these “orphan” ballots aparently will determine who the next governor of the Gold- en State is to be. Will it be the author Sinclair, who first wrote a book outlining a suppositious candidacy that ter- minated in his conquering the state via the ballot box and then pro- ceeding to humble capitalism by taxation and otherwise, until upon retiring from the governorship he deliversd a speech in which he said only one poor person could be found in California, “a religious hermit who lived in a cave?” Or Frank Merriam, Republican incumbent, or Raymond L.
