THE NEXT ASSEMBLY.
Allowing the Republicans all they can
possibly claim, by hook or by crook, it
is settled that the next legislative coun-
Gil will at least stand 6 to 6, with the
prospect that the showing up of election
frauds will throw out at least two of the
six claimed by Republicans. As to the
house, the Democrats will probably have
n ma ority of two, as it is known that, in
claiming majority, the Republicans are
counting on the cooperation of three
members who have always affiliated with
the Dem ocrats, and who, although not now
elected on straight Democratic tickets,
will work with that party as usual realiz-
ing that they must rely on the support
of a Democratic executive in order to ac-
complish any sort Of effective work for
their constituency. Under these circum-
stances the Democrats feel fully justified
in confidently laying claim to easy con-
troll of the legislative assembly which
meets four weeks from Monday.
NOTES OF THE HOUR.
Il is reported that fresh frauds have
been found in Republican precincts of
Dona Ana county that will make differ
ence of some $50 votes for the legislative
ticket.
The election frauds at Nacimiento, La
lara and Gonzalitos precincts, In Rio
Arriba county, so awkwardly worked by
tie Bernalillo county Republican com
mittee, come up for hearing before Judge
Collier at Albuquerque one week from
tomorrow.
Ia precincts 2 and 4, in Mora county,
the election returns as sent up to the
county board we're NOT certified to by the
election judges, as required by law, and
the ballots were numbered, which is CON
trary to the law.
Jack Brady, who was arrested by Dep
uty Marshal Phillips for voting twice
upon election day, pleaded guilty, claim
ing that he offended unconscieusly be-
cause of being intoxicated. fine IS
was imposed by Judge Stalcup. The law
fixes penalty at from S. to $5o.-Eddy
Argus.
From Dona Ana county comes up word
that there is ample evidence at hand to
prove that two candidates on the Repub.
lican ticket expended $4,000 in three pre-
cincts between the Sd and 9th of this
month. No wonder the Republicans at
committee headquarters were claiming
the county by $50 majority on the day
following the election.
In precinct No. ~, Union county,
enough fraudulent votes we're counted
for the Republicans to change the result
on about half of the Union county ticket.
This fraudulent vote defeats j. K. Cur
rem for county commissioner and also
defeats Thompson, Democratic member
of the house, by majority of one.
Under the circumstances Mr.. Curren
would be perfectly justified in bringing
an action in the district court to have
these frauds fully investigated.
]. L. Dow, late Republican candidate
for sheriff of Eddy county, has filed con-
test against Sheriff elect j. d. Walker
and will demand recount of the ballots
Of Hope and Eddy precirots because of
irregularities and erroneous counting. II
s rumored that Joseph Woods, one Of the
Judges at Hope, was betting that Walker
would receive twice as many votes as
Dow in that precinct. There were votes
'eceived at the Eddy box from men not
who ''swore in their votes"
Dow also asserts that some ballots slight
y defaced with copying pencil should
rave been counted for him, but were re.
looted.
