Republicans Win in COlOradO-Women Do
Much Voting.
DENVER, Nov. The indications are
that McIntire CRep.), for governor, will
have 1900 to 10000 majority over Waite
(Pop.). The feature of the election was
the women who voted. All day long the
private carriages of the Capitol Hill So
ciety leaders were carrying women voters
to the polls. In many cases the ladies
owning the turnouts went with them to
urge the voters to make use of their
franchise. A very large majority of
these, though not all. were advocates of
the Republican ticket, and their energy
undoubtedly made many votes for McIn-
tyre and his colleagues. Through the ex-
cellence of their organization the commit
teewomen are far more thoroughly in
formed as to the political preferences of
the women in their districts than are the
men regarding their sex, but no doubtful
voter was neglected.
The society ladies were not, however, the
only ones who were in evidence at the
polls. Thrifty housewives left their
1iresides the entire day to use their influ-
ence in bringing their less enthusiastic
sisters to the polls and in urging upon
them the important issues of the election
from their point of view. They represent
ed all parties. Notwithstanding the fact
that the Prohibition party has always laid
claim to the great majority of women the
demonstration shows that comparatively
few, even of the leading temperance work
ers, voted with that party.
On each Of the state tickets the candi-
date for superintendent of public instruc.
ton was woman, while each ticket in
this county had some female candi-
dates for the legislature. 1t does not ap.
pearl however, that the women voters
made any special effort for these candi-
dates, the main question being whether or
not Governor Waite should be reelected
and whether a Legislature shall be chosen
that will return e. o. Wolcott to the SEN
ate Of the United States. The women
voters generally took a partisan stand and
did very little scratching.
Advices from all counties in the state
show that the women everywhere took the
same interest in the election that was
shown in this city. In county precincts
where miles separated the voters the vote
was far heavier than was ever known be.
fore. The reports from the campaign
speakers have been that the political meet.

ings were at all times largely atteded by
the wives and daughters of the farmers
and miners, and it now appears that they
have not been idle spectators.
Waite has run behind his ticket many
thousands, but has undoubtedly carried
the entire ticket down to defeat with him.
If the Republicans have II, 600 majority on
the head of the state ticket they will un-
doubtedly control the Legislature and re-
elect Senator WolcOtt. Pence CPop) is
beaten by Shafroth (RepD for congress in
the First district. Bell Pop) may defeat
Bowen in the Second district, but his ma

the state are coming in exceedingly slowly,
complete returns on the head of the ticket
from some localities indicate that the
fusion candidate for governor, Holcomb,
is elected by 5000 plurality. This conclu-
sion is arrived at wholly by comparison
with previous votes. This does not mean
n Republican loss, since they could gain
10000 and not lose on the combined Dem.
ocratic-P opulist strength.

Republican Gains in Wisconsin.

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 1.-Returns from the
interior Of the state show Republican
gains everywhere, and indicate that the
Republican state ticket will be elected by
a majority of from 5000 to 10000. The
average Republican gain in the precincts
thus far received is 81 and it is steadily in
creasing. Chairman Wall, of the Demo
cratic state central committee comedies
the election of Upham and the entire

ST. PAUL, Nov. 7.-Figures are slow In
coming in, only few scattered reports
having been received ut this writing.
There has been great falling off in the
Democratic vote and gain by both the
Republicans and Populists, the latter
gaining the most. However, the Rcpub.
licans would still win even if they only
held their own, so long as the other parties
did not entirely join together. 1t there
fore seems likely that Governor Nelson
(Rep.) is reelected by an increase over his
plurality of li,0D0 of two years ago.

Blent into one Ike a picture so rare,

Speaks to my heart of a beautiful life,
1t speaks of the thorny path, through which
Her journey lay in this earthly strife.
And this with its silien strands OF gold,
So closely wrought on its outer rim,
Tells how the tide of prosperity rolled
Ger charmed life, where no shadows dim
Fell athwar her way--only brightest rays
OF rich sunlight over her l'fe were cast.
This bit of dress of her palmy days,
Is the only link to that happy past
This, recalcitrant maiden wore.
With her saucy face and riquant air
But iii fold it up-I can talk no more
