SOME OTHER CLOSE COUNTS DOOLAN, MEAGHER AND O’DON- NELL TALK OF A RECOUNT. Leon Dennery Will Demand a Seat in the ienate—Post-Election Gossip and In- cidents. Patrick Graham, the Republican candi- date for member of the Assembly from the Twenty-eighth District, declares he was counted out by fraud and that he will contest the seat claimed by Lawrence Hoey, his opponent, in the next Legisla- ture. The semi-official returns give Hoey a plurality over Graham of forty votes. This result, Graham asserts, was brought about by fraud during the count. The frauds are alleged to have been perpetrated in the First, Fifth, Seventh, Tenth and Fifteenth precincts. Graham is almost certain that the count was corrupted in the Fifth. He says he re- mained in this booth for several hours during the count and left when only thirty-eight ballots remained to be tallied. When he went away he was twenty-one ahead of Hoey and he learned that after | booth not him. from the counted his departure another ballot was for | While these thirty-eight ballots were be- ing counted Hoey, and several of his sup- porters, Jim Sutton, Larry Buckley, John Connors and John Gurley, were there. Graham had no one present to watch af- ter his interests. The seat from the Thirty-ninth Assem- bly District will also undoubtedly be con- tested. In the returns J. S. Wardell, Democratic candidate, Is credited with twenty-four more votes than Leon Jones, Republican. Jones has not charged cor- ruption, but he thinks ‘‘errors” were committed which, when discovered by a legislative investigation, will give him the seat. It is reported that Leon Dennery will contest Porter Ashe’s right to represent the Twenty-fourth Senatorial District. The only local contests probable, which, of course, will involve a recount, are R. P. Doolan for Superintendent of Streets, Dr. O'Donnell for Coroner and Michael Meagher for Recorder. None of the de- feated candidates have as yet decided whether they will pay the necessary $300 a day for a recount, but they are con- sidering the matter. Politicians have deserted the Registrar's office, and Mr. Biggy and his deputieg are | arranging to begin the officlal count on Monday. It is estimated that the officlal canvass will consume from thirty-five to forty days. There are more offices on the bt this year than either two or four Zlection Commissioners will meet to pass upon the warrants of election officials. In the meantime Regis- trar Biggy is harassed and annoyed by a large number of men who served and who are importuning him every hour to “fix" the warrants so they can be ne- gotiated. The aftermath of the campaign contains some matters of peculiar interest and others of an amusing nature. There was a surprising absence in their various haunts vesterday of the candidates who were successful as well as those who were thrown into the slough of despond. With the exception of Henry S. Martin, the at- tenuated Sheriff-elect, the headquarters of the various candidates were closed. Owing to the fact that this has been the hardest and hottest campai~n in the his- of the cit that mythical gentle- man, Mr. Morpheus, had taken charge of nearly all the officeseekers who have been through the stress of political battle, and those who were anxiously searching for the winners in the hope of securing pref- erment fogp future appointments were left in the glessing ranks. At the headquarters of the Republican County Committee the men who have borne the brunt of the contest were in a contented frame of jgind, ana while there was some regret that they had not suec- ceeded in wiping the Democrats off the map they found occasion to swell their manly chests and call attention to sev- eral facts that should be of interest to the public generally. % This has been proved to be the bahner campaign in the matter of organization, and this Is attested by the Republican success in a naturally strong Democratic city. For the first time since the County Committee has been In existence they were left to their own resources, not one dollar having been contributed to the funds of the local organization by the State Central Committee; and it is also the first ‘occasion on which the County Committee has emerged from the smoke of battle with all debts paid. Further- more, the chief workers of the organiza- tion for the first time voted to not allow any member money for expenses incurred in the contest. These loyal workers strove night and day, and are mutually glad that they "have came and saw and conquered.”’ HONORED THE MATRON. A Reception Tendered the Presiding Officer of Harmony Chapter, Order Eastern Star. Mrs. Elizabeth D. Wetjen, sworthy ma- tron of Harmony Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, who some time since went accompanied by her daughter, Miss gé‘?}lle \\'e[)‘:n. to be present at the golden wedding of her parents, returned to this ity 1ast week. The members of the chap- ter at its last held meeting tendered the matron and her daughter a reception in the chapter's new quarters in the Native Sons’ building. s The chief guest of the evening was con- gratulated upon her safe return and was called upon to tell all about her trip to New York, and all about the wedding. That she did in a most entertaining man- ner, and at the conclusion of her recital a Soclal hour was most pleasantly spent. —_——————————— Where Charity Is Needed. Three little children, one of them aged three, another five and another seven, have been deserted and left upon the hands of a hapless world by an erring and cruel mother. They are without food, clothing or shelter, and the father, who has no work, is unable to secure for his babies these necessities of life. In the name of charity the public is appealed to for relief in this case, which is e?eflally Qeserving, and any one who feels disposed to lend a helping hand is requested to ad- dress or apply at Sunshine Kindergarten 934 Harrison street, between 9 and 3 o’clock.

CASE OF PIONEER POLITICS ALMOST A TRAGEDY IN THE ELECTION BOOTH. An Official Who Did Not Propose to Be Bulldozed Carries Terror Into the Camp of the Enemy. It is conceded that the late campaign was one of the hottest in the history of the State, but with a few mild exceptions toe war was confined to ballots and words. Strange as it may apvear, that quiet, orderly and aristocratic suburb, Belmont, where political passions are not supposed to exist, has established the fact that it is a warm number when it comes to a campaign where some of the people are determined to elect both candidates to the same office. There was little interest taken in the State ticket. The conflict was along the trail leading to the office of Supervisor. In that district the candidates were Will- jam Brown, Democratic incumbent, who had the appointing of the election officers, and J. H. Coleman. By some accident all Brown’s appolntments were of the same political faith except one, and they were apparently imbued with the idea that the other fellow had no right to be in the race. This belief led to complications before the machinery of election had ceased run- ning. The fight in the district was very close and along in the small hours of the morn- ing it became evident that the fellow who wanted to be re-elected was getting the worst of it and the unpleasantness began. The active animosity grew out of the dis- position of five ballots, the genuineness of which was in doubt. The lone strange Republican Indian among the Iroquois braves in that booth insisted that those ballots should not be counted. Finally four of the disputed documents were ha: moniously passed upon, but the bulldo: ing majority went up against a hard fo mation when they reached the fifth bal- ot. THe lone Republican regarded that inno- cent looking piece of paper as a delusion and snare and declared on his honor as a gentleman that it should not be counted with his consent. This declaration of intention engendered Democratic wrath and muscular demonstration thereof, in which the lone champion of clean politics was getting worsted in his own bunding, wherein was the polling-place. The argument became so strong that the lamp was knocked over, threatening the destruction of the property. This was enough for the minority. With commend- able haste he hied himself homeward, where he made close connections with a gun and returned to the scene of contest. His reappearance with fire in his eye and death in his hand was the signal for the other election officers to rapidly re- move their persons to a more comfortable clime. The man who felt that his rights and dignity had been trampled upon was not moilified by this retreat from the bat- tle ground. The result was that he se- lected the man he considered responsible for the trouble and, chasing him out of the hall, gave the fellow some violent ex- ercise in the street trying to get out of range of a gun in the hands of a very angry man who was also a good runner. Darkness and the other man’'s speed prevented a tragedy and the polls were closed without burning down the build- ing. %he illustration of how pioneer politics was done has furnished rich material for Fossip and conjecture in the pretty suv- arban village, but the thrilling event has not hitherto been made known to the public. Ex-President of a National Bank in Oregon Files a Petition in Insolvency. Jesse E.
