Reports from Denver are that Nc
Gill has spent $500 for telegraph tolls
in an effort to secure players with
which to strengthen his slipping Bears.
And the MountaineerS do not look a
bit stronger than they did before he
spent the money. Denver goes wild
when the team hits a losing streak.
The fans can't stand the grief that
fans have to absorb during a baseball
season. Denver has got past h stage
when the fans a go out and enjoy
a good ball game, wen if the team is
down in the race. The team must win
always or they will not attend. There
is no doubt hat McGill is k ev-
cry effort to strengthen his club. So
are five or six other managers in the
league And the expenditure of money
for telegraph hasn't brought results
so far.
The Kaw management has been try
ing to strengthen the local team. 1t
has succeeded to a certain extent but
seeks still more strength. No such
amount as $500 has been expended for

of the Denver owner shows it is just

Johnson, who observed life as a con-

year, is going like a racing automobile
this season. But some one ought to
get to him after while.

amendments will be realities or still un-

Because of the unusual length Of the
ballot and because each Of the forty-two
amendments had to be marked either
"yes'' or mo" the voting was slow. A
majority of the voters required at least
five minutes to mark their ballot, and
many voters consumed ten or fifteen min
utes. Secretary Of State Graves today de-
clared that the returns of the election
would be slow in coming in and that the
result on many Of the less important pro-
posals probably would not be known until
tomorrow.
AS chief of the states election machin-
cry Mr. Graves has ordered the election
officials in each county to give him early

center.
At best the probabilities are that the
first returns will not be received until
late tonight. according to Mr.. Graves.
