Idaho County free press. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho Territory) 1886-current, 1891-11-13

| Bv | o'clock a sufficient NUMBER OF
figures had been obtained from dis
tricts in all parts OF the state outside
OF New York city, which, by COMPARE
son with the vote in this city, showed
that Flowers majority in the state
would be about 25, 600. The falling
off OF the vote in the counties north OF
the Harlem river seems to show that
it is due to the operation OF the ballot
and registration laws under which the
first general election is held in the
state and seems to indicate that the
purchase OF votes under these laws has
come to u standstill.
New YORK. Nov. 4.-The extra
World says: Latest returns this
morning show Flowers plurality over
Fassett in the state 40. 055. Whole
democratic state ticket elected. In
this city Flowers plurality 5S, SAT.
showing democratic falling off OF
more than 10, 900 from the vote cast
for Hill in 1888. Assembly goes dem
ocratic by eight although republicans
claim they have it.
Returns received by the Associated
press up to noon today show the dem
ocrats elected fourteen senators and
the republicans fourteen. Four dis
tricts in doubt but returns so far re-
ceived indicate that the democrats will
carry three Of these and the republi-
cans one. The same returns indicate
that the assembly will stand 81 repub-
licans and 81 democrats. and one coun-
| ty democrat who was endorsed by the
republicans.
Dies MONIES, Ia, Nov. AT 1890
scattering returns throughout the state
at this hour indicate that Boies is
elected governor over Wheeler by a
reduced plurality. The vote will be
very close, however and the demo-
cratic plurality is not likely to exceed
?, 800 votes.

The republican committee have

Reports received at democratic head

gains and indicate majority for Gov
ernor Boies OF 6, 900 to 10. 900.
DIES MONIES Ia. Nov. 4.-Republi-
cans are respondent and democrats
jubilant in this city tonight and re-
ports from all over the state show the
same state OF feeling. Bitter as the
dose is the republicans are compelled
to yield TO the inevitable and concede
the reelection of Governor Boies by a
larger plurality than that of two years
ago. The latest returns up to 10
o'clock, embracing reports from nearly
every county in the state. show net
democratic gain OF at least 1000 for
Boies, and probably more. The figures
on other state officers, while very in
incomplete, have no encouragement
for republicans, and the probability is
the entire state ticket is democratic
Thirty -four counties complete in
Iowa out OF n total of ninety-nine in
the state, gives Boies (dem. }. for gov
ernor, n plurality over Wheeler (rep. J
OF 5, COG. The same counties in 1889
gave Boies plurality of !. 275, maxi
ing net gain this year of 2, 331. The
remaining counties gave Boies a plur-
'ality in 1889 of 5, 24S which would
indicate the claim of the democratic
state central committee this afternoon
that the state would give Boies plur-
ality OF from 8, 900 to 10, 900, The
majority will be sustained by the re-
turns when all are in.

road commissioners beyond doubt.
Chairman Mack OF the republican state
committee comedies Boies' election by
5000 plurality. but claims the election
OF the balance OF the state ticket, ex-
cept railroad commissioners, for the
republicans, also both houses of the
| legislature. Chairman Fullen of the
democratic committee claims all the
state offices. but comedies the lower
house but says the senate is in doubt.
MASSACHUSETTS.
BosToN, Nov. 3.-The returns from
fifty country towns show a net repub-
lican gain of 70S, or fourteen per town
over last year. On this basis the re-
publican gain in the 353 towns OF the
state would be 1. 942. Last year Gov
ernor Russell's (dem.) plurality was
3. 053 in the state. Indications SO far
from the large cities are that he has
held his plurality OF last year and that
he is elected by at leust l. 900 plur-
ality. The balance OF the republican
state ticket is undoubtedly elected.
As the returns OF only fifty towns are
now In it is utterly impossible to give
any idea OF the complexion of the leg
islation.
The journal and Advertiser. both
republican, concede Mr.. Russell selec-
ton, but place his plurality at not
more than 3, 900. At republican head
quarters no one seemed disposed to
make an estimate OF Mr.. Aliens plu-
rality.

in the whole state Russell will receive

governors plurality about 3. 900. Lieu
