NEW ELECTION LAW.
One Republican Clerk Must Be Se-
iected in Every Precinct Under
the BareIa Act.

The REPUBLICANS will have in the
coming election better opportunity
for watching the count OF ballots than
at any previous time. The last leg
isature amended the laws governing
elections so as to give the watcher of
each of the two leading parties au-
thority to call on three members of
his party, residing in the precinct. to
help him see that an honest count is
had, and that Irregularities shall not
be committed. The amendment also
makes it absolutely necessary that
the election judges in each precinct
shall have a clerk of the same afilli'
alton as the minority judge.
The new law was introduced by
Senator Barela OF Las Animas county
and was approved by the governor on
April 10 last. The clause relating
TO clerks follows:
Section 2. governing watchers, fol
lows:
Each of the two political parties
casting the highest vote for the prin
cipal officers to be chosen at the last
preceding general election, shall have
the right to appoint, in each precinct
one person. bona fide member o.
such party. and resident OF the pre-
Durango semi-weekly herald., 1901-10-31

cinct to remain within the polling
place AS a watcher during the casting
and counting of votes and the declar-
alton OF the result thereof. Such
watcher may also act as a challenger,
when there is reason TO believe that
any person about to vote Is not efti-
tied to vote in that precinct, and each
watcher shall have the right to Sc
leet and have present. during the
counting of the votes. three registered
voters of the precinct"
The change it is expected will re-
duce the number of persons in the
polling places during the casting OF
the vote by comparison with that In
the elections of the last eight years,
but the presence of practically four
watchers for each party during the
counting of the ballot will make
greater number of persons in the
booths at that time than ever before.
The new law also defines more
closely than ever before the duties
of the judges and thereby relieves
the election boards of many sources
of quarrels and election contests In
the past.
