MAJORITY CUT DOWN.
Ruling of Supreme Court Loses Leris-
 Iature for DemOcrats


 latuFc for Democrats.
 Denver, Colo, Dec. 1S.-Alva Adams Democratic candidate for Governor. has lost 1.1s2 of his plurality and 5,275 in this county by the action of the Su- preme Court in ordering the election commission to eliminate five precincts from the returns.
 His plurality in the State will stand at about 10000. By the Supreme Courts orders. the Democrats lose three Senators who were apparently elected in this city and the Republicans gain control of both branches of the Legis- lature with majority of thirty on joint ballot. They are planning to sub init to the Legislature evidence of frauds in Denver, and ask that body to declare Governor Peabody elected.
 The Supreme Court is to be reorgan- ized April 4 next by consolidation with the Appellate Court, and will consist of seven judges, two of whom are to be appointed by the Governor. NJ M. Hanna. an expert, has examined the ballots of Precincts and (, submitted to him yesterday by the Supreme Court. and will report tomorrow that 240 of the 37f ballots found in the box are apparently fraudulent. Of these. 235 are Democratic and five Republican. William J. Kindel. Supreme Court watcher, has testified that Thomas Greene, one of the four men on trial for contempt in the precinct. instructed repeaters, many of them women, but did not in any manner interfere with the watchers or voters in general.

 tutelage exercised over them. von Plehve's purpose was to rush through a law before the commission could complete its labors. In all points M. wittes recommendations aim for the completion of the emancipation act of 1861 by ending the treatment of peas- ants as a class apart. giving them a method of enabling them to free them selves forever from the soil and plac- ing themselves on an equality with all other classes of the population and re- moving the restriction upon uninitia- tive enterprise which have heretofore crushed out all ambition.
 In order to accomplish this, he pro- poses to abolish practically the whole system of laws applicable to peasants alone. At the same time the back ward condition of the vast majority of the peasants and the fact that If placed on a complete equality in the matter of the holding and disposition of property, they would soon become the prey of the shrewder among them as well as of merchants who would like to pos- sess their lands and keep them In | state of perpetual debt. is fully recog- nixed.
 MT. witte, therefore, recommends the preservation of certain laws designated solely for the peasants protection. such as the inalienability of communal lands and institutions For the man. agement of the one and the freedom of the other from debt special laws will be recommended, supplemented by methods whereby peasants may leave their communes under certain safe- guarded conditions or delimit lands for individual ownership. There is also in contemplation the organization of a system of land credit and scheme for the settlement of State lands by the peasants who want larger opportuni- ties.
