COLORADO GOES DRY:
CARLSON is ELECTED
RETURNS FROM 80 PER CENT OF
THE VOTE CAST INDICATE
THESE RESULTS

Denver, Nov. 5.-The approval of
statewide prohibition, the election Of
George Carlson for governor, together
with four uther republican state Of
fcers; the 10 election Of Fred Farrar,
democrat; attorney general, and prac-
teal election of democratic candidates
for supreme court judge and state SUI
perintendent were the outstanding
facts of the returns from Tuesdays s
election. These facts were based on
returns from approximately 80 per
cent of the election vote of 100000
cast.
The race for United States senator
remained close, with Senator Charles
s. Thomas, democrat, leading Hubert
Work, republican, by approximately
1000 votes.
The outcome in the Second and
Third districts for congressman still
was undecided, owing to the closeness
of the race and the slowness with
which returns from several counties
filtered in. On the figures available
C. B. Timberlake, republican, led IT.

FERRED UNTIL NovEM-
Der IL

James G. Reynolds, who has been in

fore Judge David j. Leahy in cham
bers this morning and pleaded guilty
to a criminal information filed by

senting it to H. A. Harvey in payment
of a bill Later it developed that

the bank.
The state was represented by Dis
trict Attorney Ward and George FL,
Hunker appeared for Reynolds.
Considerable interest has been
taken in the case Of this Young man.
Reynolds came to New Mexico from
Terre Haute, Ind, where his father
and step-mother reside. Reports are
that he comes from an excellent fam
lily, and that this is the boys first Of
tense. His father has paid Mr.. Har-
vey the amount he advanced ON the
check, and it was thought by friends
of the boy that suspended sentence
might be given him in view Of its be-
ing his first mis-step. Judge Leahy
reserved his decision and instructed
District Attorney Ward to present fur
ther testimony in regard to the mat
ter on November II, when the regu-
lar session of the court conyenes,
Reynolds. when questioned by the
court, stated that he was only II

Attempt at oynamiting
The authorities of Lander, county

appears to have been an attempt re-
Gently to dynamite saloon and eat

Hilltop. The prepetrator of the out
rage threw a stick Of dynamite with
a lighted fuse under the structure
of the explosive. Fortunately only
the stick with the lighted fuse ex-
ploded and did but comparatively
little damage, breaking the glass Of
the windows. Had the dynamite in
the sack exploded 1t is probable that
the thirteen people in the structure
at the time would have been killed.
