E. Renshaw and Miss. Cora ‘Walsh, her sister, were seriously injured. The ladies are from Denver, and yester- day afternoon they rented an automobile to ride out to the Clifft House. The ma- chine was operated by James H. Gould, who s considered an expert chaffeur. While the automobile was traveling at a reasonable rate of speed along Point Lo- bos avenue two dogs ran out from the s'dewalk and made a dash for the ma- chine. One of them struck the front wheel and the automobile gave a sudden lurch and tipped over. The riders were thrown to the ground with great violence. Gould and Miss Walsh were both stunned by their fall. When Gould recovered con- sclousness he dragged himself to his feet with great effort and turned his attention to assisting the ladies. A hack was summoned and the injured women were removed to the Palace Ho- tel, where they are staying. Mrs. Ren- shaw recelved a severe lacerated wound on the face and a number of bruises on the body, while Miss Walsh se- verely #orained her ankle. The automobile was the property of R. H. Hoag, and as soon as he heard of the accident he hurried to the scene of ihe wreck. He commenced to bitrerly up-! braid Gould for what he considered un-| warrantable carelessness, and the by- | standers took a hand in the matter. They deciared that Gould was not to blame for the accident, and for a time it looked as if there would be a fight W. E.

Législativa Provisions Are Found to Have Been Disregarded. A sensation will be dccasioned among the politicians and nominees for office at the municipal election to take place next week in a large number of California cities and towns by ‘the announcement that in - from twenty-five to thirty towns and citles the ballots prepared for the elections are illegal in form and so threaten ‘the valldity of the elections. Very likely there will be a lively scurry- ing around to'have ballots prepared that are legal according to the amendments made to; section 1197 of the Political Code in March, 1899, This will involve expense and no little amount of grumbling because stfficfent care has not been taken in pre- paring the original Ballots to have them conform to the law in all particulars. Seventy-seven towns and cities hold electlons - next Monday. The time is short and the warning of The Call to-day will be considered to be especially valu- able, coming as it does just in the nick of time. It is only within the past few days that -the discovery has been made in this city that there is a large deln- quency in the preparation of'the baliots tor next week's municipal elections. There are several publishers of blank forms in this city who make a study of preparing such blanks in accordanee with legal re- quirements and who have become special- ists in that particular line. County offi- cials in the interior send largely to this | city to get their election supplies and then rest secure in the knowledge that they are legally fortified. Many municipal officials ‘would seem to be wilung to take chances. In the present Instance the showing is that fully one-third of thé municipalities to elect are starting wrongly, which 1s surely a striking phenomenon. Discovery Is Made by Publishers. This discovery has been made by thé collection by San Francisco blank-form publishers of sample ballots as they have been prepared for use at the elections to be held in the interior.. The largest col- lection of this sort has been made by A. Carlisle & Co. Upon request Carlisle yes- terday permitted a reporter for The Call to look these samples over. When the law was made in 1899 the legislators took the greatest pains to cover all the minutiae of the arrangement of ballots in this State for the future. In addition to that precaution there is published in the offi- clal Statutes and Amendments to the | Codes of California a sample ballot, upon which the various styles of type, the spacing required by law and all the vari- ous particulars are supplied illustratively |as an object lesson. Notwithstanding this, municipal officlais ordering tne print- ing of ballots for use in the interfor have gone wrong in a large number of 'n- stances and have now only just time in which to right their errors. { Some of the municipal officials appear to think that the law of 1897 is still .in force and have proceeded accordingly, | when there have really been effected rad- ical changes by the legislation of 18%. There is a great diversity in the forms of the sample ballots that have been sent to this city. In some instances printers in San Francisco, after receiving copy, have notified those who gave the orders | that their directions did not conform to the legal requirements in the premises. | Some have taken the hint. Others have | replied that they wished the orders car- | rled out exactly as they had been glven. | In such Instances the printers had no al- errative and did as they had been direct- | ed to do. Among the specific provisions | devised by the legislators in 1849 are the | following: 1 i ong pun MISS LEE Law Relating to Ballots. The list of candidates of the several parties | shall be printed in parallel columns. The | number of columns shall exceed by one the | number of the sevarate tickets of candidates | to be voted for at the polling place for which | the tallot is provided, except as otherwise pro- vided in this sectlon, ! The party name shall be printed in display, | the designation of the office in brevier lower | case and the name of the candidate therefor | in brevier capital type. The title of the office, together with the name of the candidate therefor, shall be printed in a space one-half irich in depth and at least two Inches in width, { defined by light horizontal ruled lines, with a | | blank space in the right thereof one-haif of | an inch wide, Inclosed by heavier lines, which | space (called the voting square) shall be of the | | Same depth as the space containing the title | 4 of ‘the office and the name of the candidate; | | provided, however, that when two or more | | persons are to be voted for for the same office | | for the same term, on the sam» party ticket, [ the title of the office shall ve published in | the first space only, which space hall be one- | half_inch in depth and the several spaces In which only such candidates’ names are printed, | and the voting spaces to the right thereof, | shall each be one-fourth of an inch in depth between the horizontal ruled lines. | | | Provision is made for a blank column | | in which the elector may write the name of any candidate for whom he wishes to vote whose name is not printed on the ballot. This shall be designated as the “blank column,” but shall be in all other respects a duplicate of the political party columns upon such ballot. Provision is | also made for printing at the right of the | last column for nominations, in one or more columns, according to the space re- quired, the several names of the can- | didates nominated, having above each of | the tickets the political or other name selected to designate independent nomina- tions. Provision is made for a perforated | line at the top of the ballot to extend | from top to bottom-and for printing the ballot with a corresponding stub. ~The name of a candidate shall be printed only |‘once upon a ballot, and if a candidate is nominated by more than one certificate | of nomination he must choose which of | the party designations he wishes/ to have his name printed under. Communities in Error. Among the larger communities whose sample ballots are reported by the printer | here to be radically wrong and in defi-| ance 6f the provisions of the amended Political Code ir* a marked degree are: Palo Alto, Coronado, Rocklin, Dixon, Les Gatos, Watsonville,' Ukiah, South Pasa- dena, Riverside, Corona, 'Redding and | Lompoc.. Some of the ballots are in one column only from beginning to end, the specification for a blank column being ! entirely ignored. If there were bonds to | be voted the financlers would be on pins | and needles. As it is, the candidates are, | as individuals, most largely concerned. A Modern Convenience. Every traveler has experienced the dis- comforts of having to crane his neck and otherwise contort himself when trying to read in a car, at night, The electric ad- justable reading lamps above every seat in the Overland Limited cars make such | experiences a thing of the past.
