ward II. Griggs says: "The ballot is

l2. Because woman's bal OF would
make it harder for notoriously bad
candidates to be nominated or elected.
In the equal suffrage States both
parties have to put up men of respect.
able character, or lose the women s
vote.
13. Because it would increase
woman's influence. Mrs. Mary @. G.
Bradford, president of the Colorado
State Federation of Womens Clubs,
said at the National Suffrage Conven-
tion in Washington in February, 1904 /:
Instead Of women's influence be.
ing lessened by the ballot, it is
greatly increased Last year there
were so many members of the legis-
lature with bills which they wanted
the club women to indorse that the
Social Science Department OF the
State Federation had to sit one day
each week to confer with these legis-
lators who were seeking our indorse-
ment. Club women outside the suff-
rage States do not have this exper.
ience.
"A. Because it would help those
women who need help the most.
Theodore Roosevelt recommended
woman suffrage In his message to the
New York Legislature. On being
asked why, he is reported to have
answered that many women have a
very hard time. working women es.
peoially, and If the ballot would helI
them. even little, he was willing to
see it tried. Mrs. Maud Nathan,
president of the National Consumers
Convention in Washington, in Febru.
AIRY, 1904: "My experience in In
vestigating the condition of women
wage earners warrants the assertion
that some Of the evils from which
they suffer would not exist il women
had the ballot In the states
where women vote. there is far bet.
ter enforcement of the laws which

10. Because it is maxim in war,
always do the thing to which your
adversary particularly objects. -
Every Vicious interest in the country
would rather continue to contend with

16. Because experience has proved
it to be good. Women have for years
been voting, literally by hundreds oi
Thousands, in England. Scotland, Ire

is seldom that either the Republicans or

1t is very evident from the Republican

Democratic ranks at the convention in

SfFOBLlCANS HAVE THE LEGISLATURE

Tuesdays state election resulted in a
landslide for the Republican party.
Every candidate on the ticket from the
gubernatorial candidate, Rev. II. A.
Buchtel, down was elected. Buchtel
carried Denver by 1867 votes over Alva
Adams, and in the state had plurality
of 17,436.
The Republicans elected enough legis-
lative candidates to control the next
legislature by big majority, which as.
sures the election of Simon Guggenheim
to the U. S. senate.
W. D. Haywood, the Socialist candi.
date for governor, ran better than was
anticipated. He was neck and neck with
Lindsey in many of the counties and in
various counties received more votes
than the juvenile Judge. Lindsey's poor
run was surprise to everybody, they
thinking that he would run close to
Adams.
A more complete victory has not been
won in the state by the Republican par
ty since 1892, when Mcintyre ran against
Waite. At that time Mcintyre was
overwhelmingly elected and carried the
Gilpin observer., 1906-11-08

no trouble in being elected.
J.C. Fowler was on the Republican
ticket, running for surveyor and as he
had no opposition, won in walk.
|. George Hamllik, Democratic caudi-
date for coroner, surprised not few
with the splendid race he made. Some
thought that DR.. A. c. Asquith, the Re-
publican nominee had walk away, but
during the fore part of Tuesday evening
when the votes commenced to come in
Mr.. Hamllik was leading his opponent
by quite good majority. He was only
defeated by 146 votes which shows that
the Republican candidate had no walk
away by any means.
Joseph Borzago, who was running on
the Democratic ticket for county COM
missioner of the third district against
Thorvald Crook, received good ma.
jority, Notwithstanding the fact that one
of his countrymen in this city worked
tooth and toe nail ag gainst him. His OBJ
ject in dong it was to obey the COM
mands OF the big boss Of the Republi-
cans who used the gentleman in ques-
tion to nicely, thinking that he was
doing good work among the Italians and
Austrians. He accomplished little or
nothing, though, AS the Italians and Aus
trians we're solid for Borzago.
The race between L. c. Todd, Demo-
crat, and W. G. Matthew's. Republican,
was tight one. Both men were first
class and it was difficult matter for the
voters to make a choice. Had Todd's
vote gotten out in the northern Rollins
vile section it's possible his defeat would
have changed to victory. 1t is estimated
that no less than seventy five good votes
that would have gone for Todd in the
tenth precinct owing to the distance to
the polling place, did not vote.
A more quiet campaign or election has
not been conducted in Gilpin cout ty in
years. Despite the fact that ideal wealth
or prevailed the vote was exceedingly
light. Quite few OF the people who
live in places outside OF the county, but
who still claim the right to vote here
came up Monday evening and Tuesday
morning and cast their votes. There was
no trouble at the polling places and the
election was conducted in fair and har.
monious manner. The straight vote vas
light and the scratched vote was the
heaviest counted in several elections
past. For this reason the complete re.
turns from over the county we're not an.
nouced until five o'clock Wednesday
morning and in some of the precincts it
was eight and nine o'clock before the
count was completed. Considerable bets
were made on the outcome of the cleo.
ton. The Democratic candidates were
the favorites in the betting and carried
the odds.
The following table will show the re-
turns from all the precincts for the state
and county candidates and is as near
complete as possible to make it before
the official canvass OF the vote is made
by the county commissioners. Next week
the official returns will be published.

copies Of the sample ballots were pro-
vided by the board and an election was

the law except in a few unimportant
points. Clerks and judges were chosen
from each Of the rooms represented and

ing quickly and doing we'll the duties of
these officials. One hundred registered
early in the morning and all but one of
these voted. Some interesting results
may be noted as follows:
There was but one voter who made an
error such that the vote would not be
counted. The error was made in mark
ing his choice for justice of the peace.
Forty.seven placed one or more un.
necessary marks on the ballot. Forty
three voted straight" ticket. Sixty
did more or less scratching" Twenty

off. Idaho won the kickoff and de-
Tended the south goal. The home team
defended the north goal. Idaho kicked
off over Centrals goal line and the ball
was declared dead and returned to the
center of the field for second kickoff,
which went to Keleher, who returned it
about fifteen yards. The next seven or
eight minutes OF play was one continu-
Gus round of line smashes until Idaho
tried for field goal from Central's ten
yard line. The play failed. The ball
was again kicked oil and the rest Of the
half was given to line smashes. Score at
end OF first half 0 to 0.
In the second half Central kicked off
to Idaho and by splendid work on the
part of the High school boys the ball
was kept in Idaho's territory during
most OF the half. Central had the ball
ON Idahos ten.yard line when time was
called. Final score, 0 to 0.
The lineup of the High school team
was as follows:
George Flaherty, center,
Lee McCargar, right guard.
Frank Morrison, Manager, right

Geo. Williams, Captain, right end
Roy McCallister, left guard.

TAXES OF THE FARMERS
PAY THE BIGGEST SHARE
Assessment this Year Shows That
Farm Property in Indiana Is Worth
1851 ,2s6,1o1 or 60 Per Cent of the
Entire Valuation Of Taxables.

tPalladlum Special
Indianapolis, May 22.-The question
What per cent of the State taxes do
the farmers of Indiana pay?" is often
asked, and Joseph H. Stubs, State
Statistican, has complied figures to
answer it. 1t is found that the total
assessed valuation of all classes and
kinds of property in Indiana amounts
to s1,57S,132,946. This is divided as
follows: Farm property, including live
stock, 1851, 1856, 101; city property,
s490,256, 7S4.9S; town property, $685.
SS1,444.46; all other property not in
cluded in any of the above classes,
s72, ,615.56.
In order to find the proportion of the
taxes that is paid by the farmers Mr..
Stubs has selected the general fund
of the State as basis on which to
make his calculations. The levy for
this fund is u cents on each 500 OF
assessed valuation. and is uniform
throughout the State. being fixed by
an act of the General Assembly. In
1905 the State general fund amounted
to $4,S37, S36.S5.
The farm property of the State is
CO.'S per cent. of the whole property;
city property is 81 per cent; town
property. 80 per cent. The amounts
paid into this general fund by these
several classes of property named a
