will be installed during vacation at
either the Thanksgiving or the Christ
mas holidays. 1t is expected that It
will consume much less coal than the
old furnace. 1t will no doubt require
much less repair as about three hun
dred dollars per year WAS required for
new sections for the old furnace.

cations are that they will not for the
landslide was so great that Senator
Barela, grandfather of the state senate
and who has been in the senate ever
since it was organized, is apparently
defeated.
The only consolation the Republicans
,'get out of the entire day is the election
of Timberlake in the second district
to congress. The other three districts
have gone to the Democrats. Mr.. Stew
art estimated that Wilson'S majority
in the state would be $4,000 and that
Gunter's would be $4,000.
The greatest surprises of the day
came from the strong Republican coun-
ties when Weld, Larimer, Boulder and
Ell Paso began to show heavy Demo-
cratic majorities for Wilson and with
the Democratic state ticket running
close to it, Chairman Stewart gave up
the fight and conceded that it was a
clean sweep for Democracy.
Governor Carlson ran about 900
votes ahead of Hughes in the state and
ran even up with the other Republican
candidates.
The expected lead for John E. Rame,
did not occur.
Late this evening Harry Mulnix was
claiming that he had been elected by
atcut 5000 basing his claims on the
fact that he had carried Denver hy ap-
rroximatcly 5000. Chairman Stewart
stated, however, that he did not believe

There is no report on the amend

of the result, Chairman Stewart stated
that it came because of Mr.. Wilson s
apparent popularity throughout the
state. The Republicans expected the
voters to scratch in favor of Carlson
but they didn't do it, Colorado returns

has represented Colorado for the last
two years.

New York, Nov. 9.-President Will
son has carried California and has beer
reelected.
Fifty hours after the polls closed in
California Republican Chairman Row
ell conceded the state to the president.
Thus the thirteen votes needed to as
sure the president a majority in the
electoral college dropped into the
Democratic column and apparently end
ed the suspense and anxiety of an elcc-
tion which has been unparalleled il
American history. -a-s4---
Secretary Tumulty, at the summer
Whit House at Shadow Lawn, sent the
news by wireless to President Wilson
on board the yacht Mayflower enroute
to Rhinecliff, N. Y.
The California returns showed that
with only 4s districts missing the presi-
dent IS plurality in the state was 2,970.
Barring some wholly unexpected
turnover in the incomplete states lean
ing toward Wilson or change on re-
count, California s acquisition to the
Democratic column gave the president
269 electoral votes without New Mex
ico's three. In New Mexico lat mid
night the president was leading by
1854 votes with 15s districts missing
and it was not believed this advantage
could be overcome by Mr.. Hughes.
Conceding West Virginia, New
Hampshire and Minnesota to Mr..
Hughes and he was in the lead in all
three-this only gives him $50 votes,
seven less than the required majority.
With 272 votes in sight President
Wilson had six to spare for a possible
split of electors in California, or a
sudden reversal in New Mexico.
AT Republican national committee
conference between George W. Wick
ersham, former attorney general of the
United States, Everett Colby of New
Jersey, Mr.. Hughes, Chairman Wilcox
and George W. Perkins of Baltimore,
preparations were being made to begin
legal proceedings for recounts in states

Mr.. Mulnix is leading his ticket and he
claims that his majority in Denver will

show that Judge Allen and Senator
