PENNSYLVANIA.

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 1.-THE most
exciting campaign in Pennsylvania in
twenty-five years has ended in a tri-
umph for Edwin S. Stuart, republican,
for governor over Lewis Emery, jr.,

claim will reach 100, 900. Aside from the

hottest was that against John Dalzell,
one of the republican f1oor leaders.

IDAHO.

Boise, Idaho. Nov. 7.-scattering re
turns indicate that a landslide has
overtaken the head of the republican:
ticket in the north and central portions
OF h state. This (Ada) county haa
gone against Governor Gooding by n
majority of a few hundred. Kootenai
and Latah counties in the north arc
claimed Ivy the democrats to be for

Washington, Gilmore, Boise and other
central counties appear to have gone
the same Way Nothing has been heard

quite certain hat Gooding will be de-
feated unless he makes up his losses in

OF the republican ticket seems to have
run well, but how the republican leg
islature ticket is affected is not clear.
In Ada county it is elected by a good
majority.
