SINCLAIR POLLS HUGE VOTE, BUT MERRIAM WINS Epic Plan Is Rejected by California: Just Start, Loser Says. (C ontinued From Paco One) but made him Governor of Califorma. Latest figures on the count of ballot* showed the former Socialist who turned Democrat to run for Governor was 170.802 behind Governor Merriam with 8.261 of the state's 10,721 precincts counted. The figures were: Merriam <Rcp 813.530; Sinclair iDem >, 642.728; Haight 'Common-wealth-Progressive!. 207.000; Merriam s plurality, 170 802. For Lteutenant-Oovernor—George Hatfield ißrp >, 706.087; Sheridan Downey 'Sinclair Democrat!. 602,475; Hatfield's majority, 103.612. Mr. Sinclair rolled up a vote never approached before by a Democratic candidate for a state office. He did it in the face of nonsupport if not actual opposition from the Roosevelt administration and of active opposition from many of the leading regular Democrats mv California. He built his own organization—a personal 'machine"and. although a political lone wolf, he headed a pack of voters which may number as many as three-' ftuarters of a million when the count* is complete. The tremendous strength shown hj* Mr. Binoiair as sort of outlaw- - pcmoerat in a normally strongly* Republican state was certain evidence that: A poweriul mass of votes is ready' to follow advanced trends m i economics and politics. That a general renovation of per*v policies in California is de-' maoded. It also seems to assure a divided Democratic party in the state. Mr. Sinclair nominally XHIT be the head of the Democratic organization but artuallv will be opposed hy the old line Democrats. Yet he will head a personal organization probably more powerful than any the regular' Democrats have built on the Pacific roast. j ’The demonstration of Sinclair errcngth also is considered certain ' to force important liberalizjng of the Merriam-Republicap policies. ; \taiilc rolling up what was to many a startling vote for Sinclair.* the California electorate also increased py one and probably by two, the Democratic delegation in congr*s. Sinclair, appearing at his headquarters at midnight, rhpered his workers with a militant address. ’This only the first skirmish.” he told the group. “Be of good cheer, we are going on with our p'ans to end poverty.” •*He’s right.” cried an elderly man in workman's garb. “It's only a beginning. It's really a victory.” Questioned by reporters, Mr. Sin- ! clair discussed possibility of a lec- ; ture or vaudeville tour and then i turned other questions wfith an ex- j pression of wonderment as to “how j we can make a progressive out of Frank Merriam.” “We might get him to co-operate wltti us by keeping him scared,” he , commented. “We can hang the! sword of recall over his head until | he promises to do something for the i people of this state.” DEMOCRATS IN COUNTY SWEEP Judge Baker Leads Ticket: Party Also Triumphs m Assembly.

who did not care to be quoted for obvious reasons, estimated that the presence of Senator Robinson on the ticket “cost the Republican city and county ticket at least 10,000 votes.” Democrats staged a parade from downtown to the Democratic Club after it had become apparent that Judge Kern, son of the late United Senator John W. Kern, had been elected. The procession was partly disrupted on Washington street by a false firm alarm run which seme Democrats attributed to “a soreheaded Republican.” Incomplete returns in the councilmanic elections showed contests too close to allow determination of the nine who will work with Judge Kern during the next four years. Under the Indianapolis election
law; each party nominates six members for city council and the nine receiving the highest number of votes are elected. The Democratic council ticket apparently elected is Edwaid B. Raub, Ross H. Wallace, Nannette Dowd, Silas J. Carr, Adolph J. Fritz and Dr. Theodore Cable. At 263 precincts, the vote for the Republican council ticket was: Carl H. Buddenbaum, 63,390; Edward R Kealing, 63,536; Ralph F. Moore, 63,290; William A. Oren, 63,376; John A. Schumacher, 63,385, and Herman E. Bowers, 63,290. Demicratic totals far exceeded these figures. Daniel J. O'Neill, Democratic nominee for city clerk, was far ahead of Edward W. Noll, Republican, with a count of 73,388 to 63,133 at 304 precincts.
