The State Democratic Committee
has been in session since Tuesday
with little result in the Clarke Kirby
contest except the development that

that he be declared the nominee,
At the afternoon session Senator

Senator Clarke said he courted the
most thorough and prompt investi-

but said that if the committee de-

of alleged fraudulent votes in Pom

opportunity to file supplemental
answer setting forth alleged irregu'
larities in other counties where the
results as announced are not favor

he would throw no obstacle in the
way of complete and thorough in
vestigation, in fact that he is anX-

thrown upon the election, But he
nor his counsel had never yet been
able to get view Of the poll books,

September 30, was Sc, 6,S45,O00; in
1890 it was S5,452, 900; and in
1912 it was Sl,25l, 900, the de-
crease being almost wholly due
co the marked decline observable in
the floating debt The population
of the state Increased from SO3,0OO
in lSS0to $50, 900 in 1910, thus as.
sisting in bringing about a marked
decrease in the per capita debt. 1880
the per capita debt amounted to
SIS ,46; ten years later il amounted

reduced TO S0,S7, Since that time
