Refpte Beshoar Claims

What ought to be the de-
nouncement unless an anti-cli-
max is demanded, in the Bes-
hoar-Barela contest came last
evening before the senate COM
mittee on elections when attor-
ney Jesse G. Northcutt, lawyer
by the way who can take his
place with the pick of the met
ropolis, submitted in evidence
for his client Barela, the poll
books from three precincts in
Las Animas county, where fraud
had been charged by the con-
testor and from which precincts
much testimony was introduced
to prove that the illiterate voters
had not been sworn before being
assisted in marking their ballots.
These books were a direct refut-
alton of three-fourths of the tes-
timony supplied for Beshoar.
1t was at the moment when
the Beshoar lawyers announced
that they had closed their case
unless for oral argument that
Mr.. Northcutt cast the bomb
shell. Two ballot boxes from
Cokedale and Berwind precincts
had been opened and the ballots
counted and segregated in be-
half of the contestor. Accord
ing to the estimate of Beshoar's
attorneys in one precinct POP bal
lots had been written in the
same handwriting and in the
other So ballots in one hand and
the books in the boxes did not
show that the illiterates had been
sworn and aided. Because of
this they were to ask to have the
votes in the precincts thrown
out. They were seeking to take
advantage of technicality. But
even then if the precincts in
question were to be thrown
overheard Senator Barela would
be elected.
Then it was that the Barela
lawyer submitted the poll books
from Gray Creek, Primero, South
Starkville, Bowen and Sopris pre-
cincts to prove that almost all of
the testimony introduced for
Beshoar to show Irregularities in
the election was false.-Denver
Republican.

Mrs. Deborah Bres1in Dead

1t is with sorrow that we re-
cord the death of Mrs. Deborah
Breslin, of Villas, which occurred
at Kansas City on the 18th inst.
at z O'Clock p. m. Mrs. Breslin
was one of the pioneers of this
county and there are few people
here who enjoyed so large cir
Gle of acquaintances and friends
and it is with sincere sorrow that
they receive the sad news of her
passing out from their midst.
She had suffered very much
during her sickness which was
of long duration, having gone to
a hospital once at Denver and
later to Kansas City hoping tor
relief. She made an heroic strug-
gle against the inevitable result
which brought relief from the
great burdens she had SO long
and patiently borne. She leaves
a family of six children who
have the largest measure of SYM
pathy of the community. Fu-
neral services will be held at
Lamar early this morning and
interment at the Blaine cemetery
