today apparently Insures a majority for
Woodrow Wilson In California 'of about
ISO votos, and nearly all, If not all, of tho
electors sent by the state to tho electoral
college.
The court prder, while taking up In do
tall every point In the election contro
versy which has waged hero for nearly
three weeks, decides especially that In
ono precinct In Pasadena and ono In Los
Angeles only tho votes for A. J. Wallace,
the head elector on the progressive tic
ket, and Thomas J. Griffin, tho head
elector on the democratic ticket, may be
counted, because In checking nil the other
electors In1 thoso precincts the election
boards kept no tally of the votes cast,
merely certifying tho totals. This the
court held to be an error Invalidating
thoso votes.
The two precincts together gavo Roose
velt a majority of about 200 votes, Aa
with this number included the majority
in tho state fori Wallace, tho highest
Roosevelt elector, stood only forty to.

under the arms.
Cancer of the stomach begins with In

ture on application.
