That is the representation at the

the minority party or candidates,
to watch the voting aud note it,

Our law provides for only one
clerk, who has sole charge of the

he deposits bis ballot; and at the
count he does the official tallying.
It is easy for this clerk to perpe-
trate fraud. When the attention
of the. commissioners is diverted
he may slip any number of ballots
into the box and simply check of
a corresponding number of names
of absent voters on the poll book.
Else, while the names of the can
didates are being called at the
counting of the ballots, he may
credit one candidate with votes

ANACONDA. MONT.

Hundreds of Anaconda residents. and
many from Butte, went to Mountain
View park Sunday to enjoy the picnic
given under the auspices of the Catho-

not disappointed. Nothing was lacking
to make the occasion a pleasant one.
The weather was delightful and the
park never showed to better advan-
tage.
At the lake, in the pavilion and at
the ball game, those bent on recreation
found sufficient to give them a good
time. The benches under the trees and
the shady spots on the grass were con-
stantly occupied by tired but happy
picnickers. Everything connected with
the affair passed off as smoothly as
could have been desired. The commit

serving of praise for che manner in
which the different features were pre-
pared.

Monsignor Robinson to Build New
Church.

IL is with pardonable pride that tie
catholics Of Denver will watch the
erection of the pretty new church of
the Annunciation in East Denver. for
which plans have been completed and
the work of excavation begun. For
many months fund has been steadily
growing for the expenses of building a
new house of worship and when tie
church is completed there win be prae-
ucally no debt upon it.
Whue the building viii not be a lux
urlous one ii will be substantial and
commodlous and Will supply the needs
OF the growing congregation. The pas
Tor, Monsignor Henry Robinson. is
looking to comfort rather than ex-
traVagance, and the church will be
punt I'M accordance with his ideas of
simplicity i'm church architecture. The
material used VIII be red pressed brick
ana stone, and the seating capacity
VIII be between 700 and 800. Much in
terest is felt in the new church owing
10 the fact that the pastor is one of the
pioneer priests of the Diocese of Den
yer, and it has always been his desire
70 see lifting temples reared in the
Queen City.
For many years the large congrega-
ton of the Annuciation parish has been
attending service in the basement of
The school house at Thirty-seVenth and
humboldt streets, but this room is now
required for school purposes. The en-
rollment is steadily growing and now
over 800 children attend the ParochiaI
school. More room is constantly needed
and the floor which now serves as a
chapel viii be partitioned off into
school rooms.
All of tie prominent business men
connected with the Annuncfation
parish are interested in the erection of
the church and have lent MARTIAL aid
IN raising the funds necessary. Mon
Slgnor Robinson is to be congratulated
upon the success with which he has
met IN establishing the requisite fund
ana there is no doubt that the work will
De pushed with all haste. A building
permit was issued on Monday and the
cost of the building, exclusive of fur
nlshings, viii be $4,000, and the in
terror decoration will amount to much
more.
Since the little church on Thirty
eighth street, near the bridge going
into GlobeYille, was abandoned. many
years ago, the congregation has had
no regular house of worship and has
peen content to use the basement of
the school house. The property re-
Gently acquired at the northeast cor
