AFTER ADAMS’ SCALP. Colorado Republicans Hop* to Yet Prevent His Aoessaion. DENVER. Col., Nov. $0.—Tho su preme court today hoard arguments on a motion which has nn Important bearing upon the result of tho election of governor and members of the leg islature In this state. Attorneys rep resenting the Republican party hsvo asked the supreme court, which hns assumed original Jurisdiction In the local election cases, to order the Den ver election commlsslson to throw out the entire vote of a prevlnrt In which It In alleged the court's order relating tp wabnors was violated without an Investigation to determine the number of legal votes cast and without open ing the ballot box. Should the court order the vote of this prednet thrown out the attorneys for the Itepubllcsns will demand sim ilar action In respect to about fifty preclncta In which It Is charged that the court's orders were violated. All these prectnta gave majorities for Alva A'lams for governor, and by throwing out the returns the Republican mnn- ogera hope to overcome Adams' ma jority of about 11.000 In the atato and continue Governor Peabody In office. The control of the atate senate also appears to hinge upon the decision on this mntter. LOANS. On lmprov«d firm land, or ally prop erty negotiated at low.it market rated.
