Feline Hubbell, brother Of the late
boss of Bernaiillo county, the entire
republican delegation to the constitu-
tlona convention ut Santa Fe was
elected yesterday by a majority for
the county of about SEQ votes. There
we're seven or eight outside precincts
to be heard from last night but
enough had reported to make the re-
suit assured Felipe Hubbcll was
beaten by about 500 votes and the
returns from the outside may make
his defeat greater At midnight last
night Frank Hubbell admitted that
his brother, who was forced upon the
republican ticket, had been beaten
and he estimated the defeat at about
200 votes. The democrats claim the
election of HarTey B. Ferguson and
their claim ell founded. Mr..
FERGUSON q good strong
vote in Old Albuquerque whore Jesus
Romero and his friends turned down
Felipe Hubbell hy some 200 votes In
the city precincts Felipe Hubbell was
also given severe reminder that the
Hubben crowd is out of politics in
this county for good and all.
Precinct 26. wherein resides Don
Francisco was one Of the strongest in
opposition to Felipe Hubbell
Both republicans and democrats
last night expressed the opinion that
when Frank Hubben forced his
brother on the republican ticket and
then followed II up with an old
fashioned Hubbell campaign Tor his
election, he cost the republican ticket
at least 400 votes and that had Hub
hell remained out Of it as he had
been told to do, the republican ticket
would have been elected by at least
1890 majority and none of the dem
ocrats would have stood show
1t was claimed by republican work
els Ia the city precincts that they fire.
quently had difficulty in getting well
known republicans to vote a republi-
can ticket without they were permit
ted to first place n sticker over the
name Of Felipe Hubbell. In Old Al
buquerque where an organized fight
had been waged for some days on the
Hubbel crowd Felipe Hubbell got
only Sc votes out OF total Of more
than $50.
1T is simply an indication" said D
well known republican last night,
that Hubbell can not force himself
back into power in this county, no
matter how he may try to do so.
When he placed his brothers name
on the ticket il was apparent to those
tyl 4. h,
was but q subterfuge to get Hub
Dell representative in the constitu-
uonal convention and it was quickly
apparent that despite the best gem
eralship that .Hubbell could use. his |
brother could not be elected
II is not believed that the total re- |
turns throughout the county will show |
as large a vote as had been expected. |
Even IN the city precincts it was nec-
essary To get out the stay AZ home 1
vote. The democrats We're confident |
"l victory and worked hard through
out the day using every means in
their power to save their delegates. |
Their chief weapon was the use Of
hubbcllism and ii was their most ef-
leetive one. without it. they would |
nave made an even poorer showing.
This was responsible for the results
