According to advlces from Denver.

plans formulated by the managers Of
the Republican post election campaign.
Governor James II. Peabody may
serve as chief executive Of Colorado
for two years more, despite the fact
that Alya Adams stlll has nearly 10000
plurality since tho votes Of i've Den
yer precincts were thrown out bodily
by order OF the supreme court In con
sequence OF frauds exposed In con
tempt proceedings against election Of
acials.
There will be a Republican majority
OF thirty or more In tho general as

tho general assembly appoint a spo
sial contest committee OF nine &c
twelve members TO which will be sub
United the evidence OF wholesale cleo
ton frauds In Denver and possibly
some other counties which the Repub
llcan committees have been collecting
ever since the election.
The Republican managers maintain
that with the fraudulent vote OF Den
Vor eliminated, Governor Peabody viii
have az least 1000 plurality In thi,
county and 1000 In the state. These
politicians do not Intend that the 10 gal
votes shall be siitcd frCm the illegal
and then counted or that the lcglsia
tufo shall reject the entire vote Of
Denver county. because to DO this
would not accomplish their purpose
to relclt Governor pclbCdy. but they
propose that about 100 Democratic
precincts shall be thrown out on thC
ground Of alleged frauds and that Oh,

be counted. They assert that tho su

BEFORE THE BAR.
New Years Justice Meted Out To .
 Few ErrinR Ones.

Sullivan Marciano could find no bet ter way to bring in the New Year than to shoot 1t. So last evening he got what is popularly known as a ..skate'' and standing at his door in Wards Flats on Bank street, he began to shoot across the river. Officer Walsh attracted by the reports, had no diff ficulty in locating their source, and he saw Marciano shooting away at his leisure. It did not occur to the officer that any one could be so foolish as to stand in his doorway and shoot at nothing, so he looked around to see the target. Finding none he conclud- ed the man was celebrating. That was the time the officer hit the target Marciano thought he was in New York where people do pretty much as they like VQn New Years eve, according to Marcfano's story in the city court to- day. But such story did not go with Judge Burpee. The police are very careful about Italians shooting irons in New York. even on New Years eve. 1t was Marciano's first time in court, though he has been in Waterbury three years. He was fined $10 and costs
 Simon Emplatt was charged with intoxication. In his imperfect Eng- fish the man told, or rather tried to tell long story of Justification oflnis Act in getting drunk last nf!ht. Mixed ale and whiskey was what brought Simon to misfortune. He lns in such hurry getting full that Ihe did not take time to wash his face1or take off his working clothes. He sfas fined S1O and costs.
 Albert Scott was charged with theft of two pool balls from Maurice Me Carthy's saloon on South Main street Scott pleaded guilty and asked for mercy, but thieving appeared to be his speciality. He was fined ST with the inevitable trimmings.
