The Glenwood post., 1912-11-09

Denver, NOV. o.-lne reports thtis
far received indicate that Colorado has
been carried by Wilson by at least
$4,000 ard that it has gone for the
to $4,000. The reports also indicate
that the democrats VIII control the
joint session of the legislature and that
they will elect two United States sena-
tors.
The republicans had hoped that if
the progressives carried Denver the
combination between the two woul
give them, enough in the outside cOun
ties to control the assembly on joint
ballot, but at this hour the Indications
are that this hope cannot be realized.
The progressives have lost Denver by
At least 5000, and in some cases, as in
1arimer, the progressives and repubh-
cans have lost their joint fusion ticket.
The scratched ballot is tine heaviest il
the history of Colorado, and will total
20 per cent of the total vote east. The
republicans claim that this scratch is
in favor of Campbell, Dawson, Water
man and Ramer. 1t is possible that a
portion of it j sin favor of Ramer and
the others mentioned, but the dem,-
cratic lead is so great on the state baR
lot that it will be something phenome
nal if Pearce is defeated.
True to their threats of six months
ago that they would either control the
republican party or defeat it, the pro.
gress;vcs have made good, and have de-
feated the party from one end of the
state to the other. However, in drag
ging the republican party down to de-
feat the prOgressives fell first and the
republicans lit on top with much
greater vote in the state than they
polled. With the exception of the city
Of Denver, the progressives are running
. poor third, and so far they have car
ried one county in the state, that being
Mesa. Nevertheless, they proved thai
they held the balance of power in
enough of the other couxt.es to rein
state democracy I'M the capitol build
ing.
From the vote gathered at this hour,
Mr.. Wilson will poll approximately
10000, Mr.. Taft will poll 10000, and
Mr.. Roosevelt $4,000, while the social
lists and prohibitionists will poll total
Of 10000, making a total vote in tn.
state of 255,0O0. Mr.. Ramer is on the
prohibition ticket, which should poll
5000 votes. If Mr.. Pearce leads over
Ramer as democrat over republi-
can by $4,000, this would still leave
him 5000 to the good. The enemies of
Pearce claim that he is defeated, but if
he is it will have to be on the scratched
ballots.
The indications at this hour are that
the next legislature will stand, IS DEM
ocrats, 81 republicans, and one pro-
gressive. The progressive coming from
Mesa county. If the democratic candi-
dates for congress run with their ticket
All four have been elected.
The friends Of Clyde Dawson AMI
Charlie Waterman hope that the
sefsaE.a U1siSi WI ,:i, maze 8. : tnsp, sac
peoples choice for the senate. How
ever, it viii take m immense number
Of scratches TO do this.
The indications are that the entire
state has been given over to tho dsno-
ersts for another torn Of two Year,.
