SHOUP ON THE
RESULT IN IDAHO.
Ex-senator Says it Was a Great
Deal Better Than Expected
CHURCH CLAIM REFUTED.
IS TO che Senatorial outlook He
Thinks the Time Rather Early
Nor PrOgDOsticatlOns'

Ex-senator George l., Shoup arrived
fsom Boise this morning, and regis
tered at the Knutsford He is In town
on a business trip, and returns tonight
he hopes accompanied, BY his son,
Capt. Walter shoup, for Thanksgiving
When me senator was asked what he
thought OF the result IN Idaho he said
"rhe Republican majority was great
deal more than we expected. We were
looking for about 5000, and behold a
majority OF $500 was rolled up. The
result was due largely to the immiBra-
ton which has come into the state III
the last two years. which, as we nave
seen was almost entirely Republican.
When asked what he thought OF the
claim that IL was the Mormon
Church that turned the tide In Idaho,
the senator laughed and sald THAT Is
all nonsense and the fact that II is
nonsense Is shown by the fact that the
change IN the northern part Of the state
where there are no MOrmons, was even
more radical than in the southern
part"
When asked If the Republican legls-
lature would redlstrict the state, the
senator said. Eyes, il VIII be redlstrict-
ed, but not shoestringed, The redlyision
will be according to just and proper
representation Of the different coun-
ties
on the senatorial question, the sena-
tor said that the aspirants for that
honor were all good men, and il Is
impossible To- predict with any certain
~ who win be chosen. The election Is
likely TO be spirited. Senator shoup
also said that Idaho would now take
more rapid steps than ever along the
line of advance. The irrigation law
passed by Congress no doubt had some
thinp IA do with NE change In the
political complexion Of Idaho, as W
as iu Montana, OuIuradO ana elsewhere
In the country.
Senator Sh0up said there was great
rejoicing among the Yale men In Boise
and elsewhere in Idaho over the foot
ball victory at New Haven Saturday.
