[Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.]
Denver, Jan. 10 ? The legislature as
organized by the republicans declared
Alva Adams, the democratic nominee,
elected governor, Saturday, and his cer
tificate of election will be issued today,
when he will take the oath of office and
assume the reins of government. The
legislature, as organized by the repub
licans, concluded its investigations yes
terday and announced the result. Af
ter throwing out all the democratic
precincts where fraud was alleged
Adams still had a majority over Pea
body of 3000. The charges filed by Pea
body, claiming the soat. were dismissed
and Adams declared to be entitled to
i the certificate of e'ection. The demo
crats claim the election of Adams by
11,000 majority on a fair count. The
legislature followed the decisions of the
supreme court in its action. The con
trol of the legislature, which was dem
ocratic on the face of the returns, is
now in the hands of the republicans in
both branches.
Ths resolution naming the commit
tee of 15 to investigate the election and
canvass the returns was passed amidst
the greatest confusion. There were 12
republicans and t^hree democrats on the
committee, ami there was almost a riot
before it was chosen. The actions of
the members were those of a band of
hocdlums.
