this movement concocted and carried ont by
small clique" was supported By rote Of
1850 for,to 800 against tho Constitution, not
more than one-half the votes Of tho Territory

return coming from precinct which went
against the Constitution. The number Hho op-
posed the Constitution has daily decreased, as
theT came TO know the character Of the Gov

tothe Provisional Government is the mere cer-
posars guard who joined in The pretended elec1s
tlon for county and Other; officers under the
hhosas laws. One Of the worst jokes upon
Plke's Peak, too, Is this same late Knnses elsc-

oi hausas hare been complied with in that elec-

farther, the men claiming election at4bat time
openly proclaim TINT the only object they hare

to the figures Of tae elections as they appear in
the Rocky Mountain -a'ttps, aud then assert
openly and abo7e board, and challenge contra
