CITY ATTORNEY
SWATTED BY The
GANG PRESS AGENT

Attorney McChcsney accepted tue
place. Whila
City Attorney Upton has always been
very attentive to police cour, cases
and others OF that nature, II is be
lieved that the condemnation case Is
one in which the most able counsel
should be employed. and that it has
acted wisely in employing Mr.. Me
Chcsncy.'
This Is the glowing tribute that
the kept newspaper pays this morn
ing to the ability Of the city attor-
ney. Charles F.. Upton. The Advcr-
tiscr says In so many words that
Charlie is all right" for police court
work. hut when 1t comes to big
cases" why. most able counsel" is
necessary. What has Charlie done
to merit this generous need OF
praise from tho machine newspaper.
AS matter OF fact the reason as
signed by the committee in recon-
mendiug employment Of special coun-
sci was that the term of office of the
present city attorney was about to ex-
pire and that 1t was necessary to en-
ploy an associate counsel in antici-
patton of the vast amount OF work re-
Quircd to properly prepare and han
die the case. But Chariey's friends
on the morning sheet thought they
would tell the people how much
they thought of Charlie and indited
the f1attering tribute.
Mr.. Tipton is probably gratificd to
read that the Advertiser thinks him
most attentive at police court cas-
aS' and that tho ,npil IN n
wisely" in employing most able
counsel for the important case now

Denver. Colo. .b. la.--Thc sp.-
cial committee appointed TO take tcs-
,imony in the Barcia-Wycoff contest.
resumed operations again llst night.
Ballot boxes in Jaroso. Trinchera and
Sopris precincts were opened The
official count for the aJrosa precinct
was changed from 1872 for Barola and
Sc for Wycoff, 10 l3i for the former
and 81 for the latter. by giving
Barcla one of the spoiled ballots in
Trinchera and WycoN two. Barcla 5
total for this precinct was boosted to

total of "56 in Sopris was reduced
to -? and Wycoff's total from 90 to

This gives Wycoff net gain OF { I:
Hicks OF Denver and Clark. Trinidad.
Wycoffs counsel. explained to the
committee that their claims of fraud
are based chiefly on tho illiterafe
voters assisted by one Republican
with no Democrat to oversee the pro-
cccding. The statute requires that
an illiterate voter mus, make affi-
davit that he or she can neither re.-a,
write, speak nor understand the En-
glish language 1t is also required
that complete record he kept of all
illitcrate voters assisted and that the
back OF each ballot he marked with
the initials of the two elections Off
cials assisting.
No prctcntion was made of follow
ing out the law in Jarosa: no lis,
was kept of illiteratc voters and elec-
tion officials assisting failed to
place thei initials on the back OF Il
single ballot. The Wycoff side in
toduced testimony that at least one
half of the voters in the precinct are
in the tlliterate class. No list was
kept and no ballots marked in Trim
chera. This was directly opposite to
the testimony of Barela witnesses
that those who assisted marked the
ballots as prescribed by law.
No list was kept of illitcra,e vot-
ers in Sopris. but a. J. Nicelli. n
Democratic judge of election. had as
sisted forty voters alone. This num-
Der OF ballots bore his initials. Al
of them counted for Barcla.
The initials of Fred Baker. who
served as a Democrat, but who is al
legged to be Republican. were alone
on the back OF four ballots cast for
Wycoff and seven cast for Barela
The initials of both iVcelli and Bak-
or were on the backs Of forty-threc
ballots. This made "A total of "a
ballots marked with initials. The
records showed that 1+i illiterate
