The Power OF Thought.

The power in man to think is the

Can you see this thought called things?

thoughts are things; by intellect he
realizes the things, the effects. The

depths of the heavens and brought us

A VERY LIGHT
VOTE CAST
The Election In This City Is
Processing Very
Quietly.
DEMOCRATS ARE GLUM
And While the Republicans Are Max
ing No Fight At All. Democrats
Are Scratching Tickets by Whole
Sala.

Election day dawned cloudy and cool.
On the streets there was not the slight
est manifestation of excitement by any
one and the indications during the
early morning hours were that this
would be one of the quietest elections
ever held In FL Pas0:> In fact no one
but the candidates themselves seemed
to take any deep interest in the out
come and such small groups of citizens
as gathered to discuss the outlook were
quiet and orderly.
AS late as ten o'clock the fight had
not begun in earnest and in all the
wards an exceeding light vote had
been cast at that hour. No money
worth mentioning had been turned
loose, and the purchass5le voter was in
distress. They held themselves alOof
awaiting results and earnestly discus
sing the situation in which they found
themselves placed.
These voters were Mexicans and
usually vote the democratic ticket
when beer and noodle are plentiful,
but today they appeared sulky, and 1t
was understood that they had threate-
ned to vote the straight republican
ticket in q bunch unless 81 apiece was
quickly forthcoming from the demo-
cratic slush fund.
The bosses, however, were not eager
to buy these votes unless satisfied the
election was going against them and
quietly awaited results.
AS early as eight o'clock this morn
ing few citizens began to put in an
appearance at the various polling
places of the city. The officers finally
much hustle and argument over the
appointment of clerks and judges which
had been postponed until
the last moment. Matters
were at last Strengthened out
however to the satisfaction of every
one and the polls were sthen formally
opened for business.
In the third ward Judge Kemp failed

SALOONS WIDE OPEN.
Two prominent Ell Paso street sa-
looms, Phil Smiths and Phil. Young's,
were running just the same as usual
today with their front doors wide open.
Others along Ell Paso and San Antonio
had at least their front
doors closed, although few could be
entered at the rear. ST Ryan's
was locked up tight front and back and
he and his employees were taking a
holiday while observing the law.
The law distinctly provides for the
closing of all saloons on election day
and the authorities are supposed to
strictly enforce the statute.
AT ELEVEN O'CLOCK.
At eleven o'clock an exceedingly
light vote was being polled. The lack
of sharp fighting caused q heavy fall

no aggressive fight, but lay low and
persuaded the Mexicsns to stay away
from the polls. This had a marked eff

The CONSERVATIVE of Nebraska City,
edited by j. Sterling Morton, says:
''There is need of political party in the
United states which can live without
traditions and ~promulgate policies and
principles without fear of running
amuck with it's own precedents and plat
forms. The objections to a new party
are not insuperable. The republican
party was organized in 1854. 1t ran
Fremont for the Presidency in 1856. 1t
elected Lincoln because of a divided
democracy in 1861" Whether the time
has come for a new party or not it is not
for us to decide, but that there are new
issues and high causes waiting for study
and solution, issues and causes that run
across existing party lines and that are
not adequately represented by the ira
