Santa Fe new Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1898-1951, 1904-11-04

tituting Quay County, was Democratic
The county is doubtful, and as it II
claimed by the Democrats by small
majority, it is placed in the doubtful
column.
Rio Arriba County came to the front
two years ago with the following vote:
1,752 for Rodey, S99 for Ferguson; Re
publican majority, 1853. It is figured
out that the county will give still great
er Republican majorities this year on
the entire ticket.
Roosevelt County is one of the new
counties created by the Thirty-fifth
legislative assembly. The registration
this year is S52 The county is Demo
cratic and should be put down for the
Democratic ticket by several hundred
majority.
Sandoval County, which was part
of Bernalillo County two years ago,
went solidly Republican, and although
there are two Republican county tick.
cts in the field, it can be safely assert
ed that it will return grand major
ity for Senator Andrews and that in
the neighborhood of a thousand or
more.
San Juan County gave Democratic
majority two years ago, by the follow
ing vote: 346 for Rodey, 800 for Fer
gusson Democratic majority, "A. The
county in all likelihood will give the
Democratic ticket between Is and 100
majority, although Senator Andrews
may run ahead and some of the Repub.
lican candidates may be elected.
Santa Fe County two years ago was
Republican by the following vote:
1880 for Rodey; 1,116 for Ferguson.
Republican majority, 514. The Demo
neutrality-suspicious. have COM
bined here and the latter are support
ing Delegate Rodey. Nevertheless, the
county can be counted upon for a plu-
rality for Senator Andrews.
Sierra County two years ago stood
426 for Rodey, 379 for Ferguson; Re-
publican majority, AZ. Sierra County
will likely be carried by the Demo
Gratis by from so to 100 on some of the
county offices, while it is believed that
Senator Andrews and two or three
candidates on the Republican county
and legislative ticket will receive ma
jorities.
San Miguel County two years ago
was Republican by the following vote:
1884 for Rodey; 1884 for Ferguson;
Republican majority, 80. The county
is placed in the Republican column by
a good plurality for Senator Andrews,
and for the Republican legislative and
county ticket.
: Socorro County in 1902 stood: 1,463
for Rpdey, 966 for Ferguson. Repub-
lican majority, 497. All reports agree
that Socorro County will give Senator
Andrews nice majority and that the
Republican county and legislative
tickets there are safe for the Republi-
can party.
Taos County two years ago stood:
1,159 for Rodey, 7Se for Ferguson; Re.
publican majority 373. There is a
three-cornered fight on in that county
and the Independent Republicans, al
though they should support Senator
Andrews for delegate to congress, are,
according to the last report, wabbling.
The New Mexican therefore places
this county in the doubtful column with
the chances in favor of Senator An
drews for plurality.
Torrance County will go into exist
ence January LIST, 1905, as a county
and will cast separate vote for dele
gate and legislative and county tickets,
8th. The county is strongly
Republican, although there is an In
dependent ticket in the field. The can
didates on the latter are, however, sup
porting Senator Andrews and the ma.
jority for him will be quite handsome.
Union County, two years ago, stood,
732 for Rodey, III for Ferguson. Re-
publican majority, 81. The Republi-
cans have made gains in Union County
since the 1902 election and the coun-
ty is placed in the doubtful column
with the chances in favor of the Re-
publicans for majority for every can
didate, including the head of the tick
ct.
Valencia County, two years ago
stood, 1898 for Rodey, Sc for Fergus
son; Republican majority, 1,942. Tor
rance has been cut from it, but the
county is sure for Senator Andrews by
from 1000 up, and the same majority
for the legislative and county tickets.
Summarizing, the New Mexican be-
lieves the political complexion of the
counties in the Territory Tuesday next
will size up on the delegate as follows:
Republican: Bernalillo, Colfax, Dona
Ana, Leonard Wood, Lincoln, McKin-
ley, Mora, Otero Rio Arriba, Sandoval,
Santa Fe Socorro,. San Miguel, Tor.
rance and Valencia.
Democratic: Chaves, Eddy, Grant,
Luna, Roosevelt, San Juan, Sierra.
Doubtful: Quay, Taos, Union.
