RESULTS IN
GARFIELD COUNTY
Republicans Elect Commissioner, Judge and Cor
Oner--DemOrdtS Secure Balance of the
Ticket by Narrow Margins
THEODORE ROOSEVELT CARRIES THE COUNTY

The election in Garfield county
passed off in quiet and orderly man
ner in every precinct of the county
and there was large vote cast In
out of possible / 300 were cast. One
of the features of the voting was the
number of scratched ballots, not only
in this county, but over the entire
state, fully as many scratched tickets
being voted as there were straights
and in many instances much greater
proportion.
Garfield county elected mixed
ticket James Zimmerman was
chosen in place of Sheriff Adams by a
good majority and c. M. White was
lected to the Office of assessor in place
of w. F. Kennedy, the present in
cumbent. These two newly elected
officers succeed republicans.
William Cardnell was re elected
county clerk by nominal majority
while Everett McPhee won out over
Ole Thorson by good majority.
Judge Beardsley was re elected by the
largest vote given to any one on the
republican ticket having upwards of
400 majority.
Mrs. Alice Clark can feel justly
complmented upon the size of the
vote cast for her throughout the entire
county and she led the ticket in near
ly every precinct. Miss Lay, the re.
publican candidate, can have no re
grets on the manner in which her
campaign has been conducted and
has gained many friends during tn.
canvass. No one questions M:a.
Clark S ability to successfully conduct
the Office of county superintendent
Her election was due in large meas
ure to the growing feeling against
partisanship in the selection of edu
cational officers.
DR.. Clark was reelected county
coroner by safe majority while for
representative George E. Harris, re-
publican, was defeated by L. E.
Drach, present county treasurer.
The democrats elected James BIen
nan for commissioner from the second
district and the republicans succeeded
in landing II. c. Jessup to the office
The Glenwood post., 1904-11-12

mont and Maine came in with their
usual heavy pluralities. 1t was con-
sidered n doubtful state that didn go
100, 600 for Roosevelt.
1t is estimated that the republicans
will have at least 100 majority in the
lower house of congress with slight
increase in the senate. Late returns
from Colorado indicate that the dem
ocrats will control both branches of
the Legislature although there is some
question about the house. There have
been gains IN several portions of the
state and official returns will decide
the contests in many instances Gov
ornor Peabody ran behind his ticket
in all portions of the state while
Roosevelt secured the votes of many
3enoc ats.
1t is probable thai three republican
congressman have been elected al
though it is question which will be
decided by the official count whether
Brooks or Shafroth will represent the
state in that bol ly.

CanyaSsing Board in Session

The cauvassing board is in session
as we go to press hut will probably
complete its labors today
A few errors have been found in
the count which slightly changes the
unofficial returns but only one where
in the final result might be changed.
This was an instance in which the
tally sheet kept by the board showed
that h. G.. Carlisle had majority of
two votes whereas the unofficial count
showed that his opponent james
Brennan had majority of II votes
but on account of errors this was cut
down to three votes but when the
count actually Indicated the election
of Carlisle, there was trouble. In
the West Gleuwoud precinct there
was discrepancy of five votes and
although County Clerk Cardnell put
on new pair of specs and then
borrowed magnifying glass, still
there was some doubt as to whether
Carlisle's vote should be llG as the
clerks had extei ded it or l2l as JUS
tice Ile1den claimed it should be.
The clerks were sent for but they
could throw no light ON the subject,
the clerks being unable to remember
whether the five marks in dispute
were made. with IA pen in the work of
counting or whether they were offsets

BUSY TINES AT
HEADQUARTERS
Returns Were All Favorable From OutSide---NO
Comfort LOCaIy--- ---Ohdirmdn pdrkiSOn
Puts up Good Fight
BIG CROWD LISTENS To TELEGRAPH BULLETINS

Immediately dissipated any such
thoughts although Peirce secured the
votes of n large number of democrats
who voted the ticket straight
Bulletins were posted in the rear of
the room after they had been read to
the crowd and until after midnight
nearly every seat was occupied The
ladies were out in full force, occupy
ing seats near the frcnt which had
been reserved for them
Chairman Parkison had his hands
full in answering the telephone and
in receiving reports from various parts
OF the county. He was assisted by
w. Nj. Jones, f. d. Squire and 9th
els in receiving bulletins and infor-
nation and in receiving such from the
state and nation.
The democrats had their headquar.
ters in Senator Tsylor's office and
large number of democrats assembled
there to listen to the reports of the
landslide for Roosevelt, there being
no sign of Parker upon the horizon.
News from the state was not encourag-
ing but for the local ticket there be
gan to come indications of victory for
some of the candidates for county
offices. No comfort was obtained out
Of the first reports from the senatorial
district as the small majorities for
either contestant in the race could
not be used as forecast of the result
But when the returns were all IN
they had some cause for jubilation.

nt commissioner from the third dis.
trict. This leaves the board of com
missioners the same as heretofore, two
republicans and one democrat.
The most interesting fight of the
entire campaign was that between
Eugene II. Grubb and Senator Ed. T.
Taylor for a seat in the state senate
When Grubb started out, there was
but little hopes that he would be
able to defeat Taylor, but as things
began to warm up and stories were
being started to defeat Grubb, the
Gentleman who wanted Taylor's seat
began to get enthused to the occasion,
and although he did not win ont, he
cut Taylor vote down by several
hundred and gave Taylor the fight of
his life.
Unofficial returns from all the pre-
cincts in the county show that Pea
body received over 300 votes less than
Adams while Hogg came out
ahead with slight plurality.
Roosevelt and Fairbanks carried the
county with several hundred votes to
the good, although the president
should have received the bulk of the
entire vote cast for presi dent as Park
er had nothing in common with the
voters of any party in Garfield county
or the west. Colorado should have
given Roosevelt 100, 600 majority.
So far as the conduct of the cam.
paign has been concerned the repub
licans have nothing to regret for it
has been clean on their part. The
democrats INDUCED in belittling per
sonaiities in many instances but these
things are expected in a campaign
where anything is resorted to il order
to defeat a man. The Post has not
been unjust to any candidate on the
democratic ticket but, on the other
hand, has given most of the candi
| dates credit for being men of integrity
and good citizens whose interests are
wra pped up with the interests of Gar
field county. Some nominations were
made which, according to our belief
did no credit to the democrats and
those men We're either defeated or
pulled through by so narrow margin
that there were no votes to spare.
The Glenwood post., 1904-11-12

Republican campaign headquarters
was bnsy and interesting place
Tueday night and many democrats
took advantage of the welcome given
them to come to hear the good news
The good news began to come shortly
after eight o clock and there was no
cessation of this kind of news from
everywhere but in Colorado Demo
Gratis undoubtedly rejoiced with re
publicaus in the overwhelming vote
give to President Roosevelt as most of
them voted this ticket simply because
of partisan motives and not because
of lack of sympathy with the presi
dent $ policies in regard to the build
ing up of the great west and on other
public questions
AT any rate there We're no downcast
faces at republican headquarters un
til away late when news began to
come from the precincts in Garfield
county and it became evident that
Garfield county was to Join the solid
south phalanX of non progressive
states. The news came slowly and
up to two O'Clock in the morning
nothing reliable had been received
from many precincts in the county.
Kennedy began early to concede
his defeat although he waited with
hopefulness for encouraging signs but
none came. Judge Beardsley at one
time questioned whether he would
not be displaced by Candidate Peirce
but the absurdity OF such a result

caused by failure to blot the pages.
There is a difference al to whether
the disputed marks were meant for
tally marks or not.
After the clerks and judges had
been consulted, the canvasing board
allowed the vote of is for Carlisle,
Cardnell and Smith voting aye and
Hedden voting no. This will give
Brennan majority of three but the
matter will doubtless be taken into
the courts and an order secured to
produce the other poll book from this
precinct which is now locked up in
the ballot box and which the canvass
ing board had no authority to disturb.
On account Of the slowness of the
board we are unable to give our read
ers IA canvass of the vote until next
week when we will follow our annual
custom and print an absolutely accu-
rate and official canvass of all the
votes by precincts.
