as TO allow the water to run in the
mains again
This breakage has caused the water
all over town to take on a milky ap-
pearance. although 1t has not been
made disagreeable TO use. The press
ure. of course, has been decreased
considerably because of the mishap.
but It is thought that normal press
ure will soon be restored.
Many people think that the break
ing OF the water pipe on Main street
between Eighth and Ninth streets last
week and the breakage which occur
red this morning are due to the
heavy pressure upon the pipes. These
mains were laid over twenty-five
years ago and sone think that this
long period of service has made them
unable to withstand the pressure
which Canon's excellent new water
system sends through them every
minute OF the day.

MAIN BURSTS
STREETS ARE FLOODED

Wednesday morning early pedes-
trians along Main street near the
Denton Hotel we're met with floods OF
water running In every direction In
the street. The trouble was due to a
defective water main which had burst
ed some time Tuesday night. Water
Superintendent Van Patton had a
force of men at work soon after the
news of the trouble had reached his
Office and the force has been busy all
day endeavoring to repair the dam
age. The water was turned of a short
while this morning without notifica-
ton to the patrons Of the water sys-
tenn on Main street but so many COM
plants came to Mr.. Van Patton that
he decided to turn the water on until
all could be given the proper warn
ing 80 that they might be able to
cope with the Inconvenience satis-
factorily.
The water has been squirting up
out of the main all day and this fact
has made progress difficult for the
workmen. That part OF the street
near the McQuown Coal company's
Office is completely flooded. an is also
Seventh street between Main and
River. The water has been running
down the irrigation bitches which
have handled the overflow satisfnc-
torily with the exception OF the ditch
along River street near Eighth. Here
the walks are covered with water
which makes II disagrseable for those
who have found Il necessary to walk
along there.

DENVER NEWS LETTER

Denver, Nov. 30.-With the County
Canvassing Boards through with their
work. nothing more remains to be
done except to await the official can
vass of the vote on legislative and
congressional candidates by the State
Board of Canvassers, and on state Of
dcials by the legislative canyassing
board. Teller County was the last to
complete its canvass. It gave Demo-
cratic majorities ranging from $50 for
Judge Gunter to 1894 for Governor
Shafroth. With this vote complete
the Republicans have six of tn, thir-
teen offices. Garrigues for Supreme
Judge: Griffith for Attorney General;
King and wolcott for Regents OF the
State University; Kendall for Fall
road Commissioner, and Wilson for
Superintendent of Schools. The only
way the Democrats can secure these
positions is by contests and the throw
ing out of the votes of entire coun-
ties.
The result from Teller County alone
showed that every Constitutional
Amendment carried. The one re-
funding the states Indebtedness.
which was supposed to be defeated.
gets through with the small majority
of 17S. The others carried by ex-
tremely large majorities.
The Direct Legislation League
which was originally organized to Sc
cure the adoption OF the Initiative and
Referendum Constitutional Amend
ment, announces that 1t intends to re-
main a permanent organization for
the purpose of initiating and secur-
ing the adoption of laws.
Much credit belongs to Chairman
Mcdonald for the fact that the Re-
publicans have elected six OF the thir-
teen candidates. When II became
known that the contests ware close II
also became known that the Dem
ocrats intended to steal the result II
they could.
Having control of forty-nine out OF
sixty county canvassing boards they
were in good position to change small
Republican majorities to Democratic
majorities. A number OF Denver's
best election "fxers" were sent out
to do the work. It was here that
Chairman Mcdonald showed his abii-
ity as a chairman. For over a week
no scarcely left the headquarters.
Men In whom he knew trust could
be imposed were sent before each
County Cancassing board and in
structed to stay there until the count
was completed. Never was a county
canvass of a state election watched
with more guarded care.
or course the state and legislative
canvasses are yet to be made and
watched. but Chairman Mcdonald In
tends to keep headquarters open and

Alexandra Leaves for Denmark in
Lonely Grandeur and Gossip Says
She May Remain There.

LONDON, Oct. 27.-The rupture In
the royal family OF England 10 the
chief topic OF gossip In London today
Now that Queen Mother Alexandra
has finally gone 10 Denmark, 1t 10
firmly believed she will make her
home there, making only occasional
visits 10 England.
There Is no question that Alexan-
dra believes she has been badly
treated by her son, King George. and
his wife. She Is wrong, but this does
not alter her feelings. After being
the FIRST lady OF England for 90 long,
she could not understand why she
should give way to Queen Mary when
King Edward died.
The climax came in her fight to re-
tain Buckingham palace. the royal
London residence, for herself When
she finally went TO Sandringham, on
her physicians representation that
she needed q few weeks In the coun-
try, It is certain she expected TO re-
turn to Buckingham. As soon az she
was gone. however, George had all
her personal servants and her be-
lodgings transferred TO Marlborough
House, while he moved his things In
10 Buckingham.
Alexandra realized that TO re-estab'
lish herself In Buckingham meant 4
scene. which even she recognized as
impossible. She did, however. visit
her son at Balmoral. and II Is said
that the scoldlng she gave him broke
all records in royal establishments.
Then she sailed for Denmark In lone
~ grandeur. Just what are her plans
for the future. probably only she and
her sister, the dowager Czarina, de-
finitely know.
