at the Glenwooi sanitarium Wednesday
afternoon from pneumonia. O'Connell

bad cold since the potato day celebra

the sanitarium where he could have
better care than could be provided 70,

William Dinkel of Carbondale, an old

the suggestion of DR.. Braden who real,

was in, secured a lawyer and O'Connell
made his will. devising his earthly pos.

Later the priest was sent for and the

the rugged, hearty Tom O'ConAsll, as
some of us had known him for many
years, was soon to be but a memory.
And so it was for at l 80 o clock We'd.
nesday afternoon the warm-heArte1,

O'Connell owned one of the best

27 years and this. with his personal

Shafroth Reelected But Some Repub|i.
can State Candidates Saved From
wreckage.- -MacRae Leads County
\. C. ESSuP SWIPES DIvELB|SS

The election last Tuesday was very
similar to other elections in that it was
full of surprises and disappointments
to many people in every community in
the country. Hope is great thing and
hope buoys US up and keeps our spirits
| light oftentimes after reason ani judg
| ment have deserted us. And so it is
with politics. There is u fascination
and glamour in it for some so long
as We are in pursuit of the coveted
goal. but in the cold grey dawn of the
morning after, ah, friends and fellow
citizens, there's the rub.
Speaking for republicans, and es'
pecially for Garfield county republicans,
the Post believes they have little cause
for complaint. Certainly the majority
of them are not greatly surprised un-
less that surprise is in the greater sue
cess than they had felt justified in ex-
pectng.
While there is considerable disap,
pointment in the defeat of Mrs. Ozburn
and Amos Ralston, both of whom came
close to victory, there is lot of
ground for rejoicing in the victory by
such magnificent majorities as were
received by MacRae and Jessup while
the fact that the, people of this county
are to be represented in the lower house
of the legislature is certainly pleasing
to republicans. In fact, republicans
take great satisfaction in the fact that
this year they are to fill three of thu
best Offices in the county as against
two secured at the last election ami
with majorities greatly in excess of the
ISOLATION that this year all democratic
maiorities are greatly reduced as com,
pared with the election of 1908.
Sbafroth was reelected governor by
large majority, probably over $4,000,
but failed to carry his entire ticket
with him. In fact. as the Post goes to
press it is almost certain that Judge
Garrigues has defeated Judge Gunter
| by safe majority and that Mrs. Wix'
son has been elected state superintend.
ent of schools, Miss Wolcott, regent of
the state university and Ben Griffith
attorney general and the last report is
that county chairmen have been asked
to forward to Denver the Official count
on secretary of state and railroad com.
missioner, these two Offices also being
in doubt.
In this county John A. MacRae ran
like the proverbial scared wolf and in
his race to succeed himself as county
treasurer outdistanced his competitor
Ev MePhee, by the splendid majority
of 63s. Congressman Taylor was next
in line. winning over Stevens by 500
Next in line came Fl. G. Jessup, tn:
sprinter from Carbondale, who worsted
his antagonist, P. W, Divelbiss, to the
tune of 456 which ism t half bad a.
we look at it.

SUDDEN DEATH OF
CHARLES BURNS

While working last Saturday at his
task as Rio Grande roundhouse fore.
man, Charles Burns met with an acci-
dent that snuffed out his life in an iu-
slant and served to show how uncertain
and how truly like vapor is that mys-
terious thing we are accustomed to re-
fer to as life.
Two engines had been placed in the
yard near the roundhouse. the disabled
or "dead" engine being coupled with
chains to the other which was to pull
it to position where the men could
get at it easily to make some repairs.
Burns stepped between the engines
to uncouple them and having loosened
the chain on one side started across to
the other side between the two en-
gines, the tenders being backed toward
each other, when for some unaccounta-
BILE reason the one engine was backed
or was allowed to back against the
other, catching Burns just as he was
passing between the drawheads and
crushing his life out instantly.
A brother who lives in Denver az
rived Monday and conveyed the body
to. that city for interment. The young
man IS mother, who was visiting in Cal
ifernia, was at once notified as were
his brothers, now located in Montana.
Burns had lived for many years IN
Glenwood and Aspen. in both of which
places he had many warm friends.

STREET HORSE RAGING
District Attorney Gives Notice That Violators of Law Win Be
 Prosecuted.
Editor Imperial Valley Press,

Editor Imperial valley Press,
 Dear Sir:
 My attention has been called to the fact that horse racing Is being indulged in in this county on the pub lie highways, and that bets are being placed upon said horse races.
 It seems to me that to the person of ordinary intelligence, the fact that racing horses on the public road is not right and is dangerous would ap- pear without having his attention called thereto. That I am wrong in this, or that quite a number of people in this county are not of ordinary in telligence, is evidenced by the fact that I am credibly informed that the public roads are being used as race courses. As to the betting or recording of bets, or the holding of stakes on any race, the laws of the State subject the offender, on conviction, to a sen tence of one year in the penitentiary, and he must be punished by some form of Imprisonment, no alternative fine being allowed.
 I am sending this letter to all the editors in the valley with the hope that they will give the matter pub licity, because the punishment is so drastic that I do not want to prose- cute anyone who can justly say he did the acts in ignorance. The sheriff has instructions to see that these for bidden acts cease, and this office will not tolerate their continuance. No mo- tice ought to be necessary but the law is recent enactment, and it may be that there are those who do not know of it's existence. No further mo- tice, however, will be given.
 Yours very truly,
 J. M. ESHLEMAN,
 District Attorney. Fl Centro, Mar. 2, 1910.
