Santa Fe.
1t may be New Year, before the re-
port of the official canvassing board
is in the hands of President Taft. up
to last evening, ten precincts OF ber-
anlillo county had been canvassed.
There is hope that Bernalillo county
may be completed by tonight. Berna-
lilo county has twenty-five precincts,
and if it takes a day to canvass tWen-
ty-two precincts, how long will it
take to canvass 600 precincts? The
precincts canvassed up to adjourn
ment last evening were: San Jose,
Del Rio, Alameda, Ranches de Atris-
co. Ranches de Albuquerque, Barelas,
Los Padillas, San Antonio, Los Grie-
COS and Escobosa. The Albuquer-
que precincts with their heavy vote
were tackled today. More irregular
tiles are beginning to appear. In
Clayton the supply of Blue Ballots
was exhausted and about fifty voters
could not express their wishes on
this question. In Sccorro county, the
county commissioners opened sever
al ballot boxes to get the poll books
to be sent to Santa Fe and Probate
Clerk E. H. Sweet had to come to
Santa Fe to identify the books and
certificates.
BernaIilIo County Completed.
At noon, the canvass of Bernalillo
county was completed. Three or four
slight discrepancies still needed adj
justment, but indications now are
that the canvass will proceed more
rapidly. All the candidates gained a
few votes over the unofficial returns,
but the advantage lay decidedly with
the Democrats who gained from II to
81 in their Bernalillo county majori-
ties. If this ratio is maintained in
the other counties, then only a few
OF the Republican state candidates
have pulled through.

The following sums of money were
