ELECTION OF BoRAH.
Idaho Legislature Cast Their Votes
for Republican Candidate.

Boise, Jan. 15.-The senatorial election
today was a very tame affair. As there
was nothing TO do but formally cast the
vote, excitement was lacking. but a large
crowd was present 20 witness the voting.
When the hour Of u arrived Speaker
Hunt called attention to the fact that
the law requiIe ed them to proceed with
the election Of a senator. Cavanah of
Ada then placed w. r. Borah in nomi-
nation in a speech ten minutes I'm length.
and the nomination was seconded by a
great number of members, nearly every
county being heard
Z Senator Dubois was named by Freehafer
OF Washington. and the nomination was
seconded by many members
The entire Republican vote was cast
for w. T., Burah, excepting Staley Of
Bannock. who was absent. making 81
votes. Senator Dubois received Il votes.
The proceedings were much the same
in the senate. where Senator Hart of
Fremont nominated Borah and Whitwell
of Lemhi named Dubois The feature OF
voting there was a mistake made by Mac
beth Of Custer. When HIS name was
called ne answered: "Borah.' Whitwell
blurted out what. Borah?'' and con-
siderable commOtion was occasioned,
members vieing with each other in guy
ing Macbeth. Persons standing back OF
the rail crowded in to congratulate him
came still more confused and failed &c
answer at ali when the clerk again called
his name. He is recorded as voting fOI
Dubois. but he never did get his vote
cast straight. The vote stood ID for b.
rah and FOR Dubois.
Immediately after the balloting both
houses adjourned until tomorrow

MEMBERS STOOD
EIGHT TO SEVEN
House Committee Voted to Fa-
vorably Report Substitute
Ship Subsidy Bill.

Washington. Jan. 15.--After a fight
that lasted all day and extended to the
floor of the house. threatening to bring
about much filibustering at one time,
the house committee on merchant ma
rine and fisheries finally decided at s
o'clock p. ~. by a vote OF eight to
seven, 20 make a favorable report on
q ship subsidy bill prepared by Repre-
sentative Littauer of New York as a
substitute for the Grosvenor bill. which
has been under consideration for many
weeks
The members Of the committee sup
porting the measure were Representa-
tives Grosvenor. Miner. Littlefield,
Fordney, Wachter Humphrey. Watson
and Littauer. all Republicans The
negative votes were cast by Repre-
sentatives Birdsall. Wilson and Hin
shaw, Republicans. and Goulden. May
nard. Shirley and Patterson, Demo-
Gratis.
Seven Subsidized Lines,
Seven subsidized mali lines are pro-
vided for. with an annual subsidy esti-
mated at $3,T50.000. Two of the lines
are to be from the Atlantic coast to
South America and one from the Gulf
of Mexico TO Colon. From the Pacific
coast there are to be three lines to the
Orient and one line to the west coast of
South America.
Only tYo changes were made i'm the
bill as Originally drawn by MIR. Lit
tauer Instead of actually fixing san
Francisco and the Puget sound as the
points OF departure Of the two lines to
Japan. China and the Philippines. the
committee amended Mr.. Littauer's bill
so that one line is to start from a point
north of Cape Mendocino and the other
from a point south Of Cape Mendocino.
At the morning session the senate
ship subsidy bill. which carries a ton
mage subsidy and is said to be extreme
ly distasteful TO Speaker Cannon, was
laid before the committee by Mr.. Lit
tauer. and several Democrats voted for
it. Republicans changed their votes in
order TO defeat il and get a compro-
mise bill under consideration which it
was thought would have a better
chance with the Republican house
leaders.
The committee adjourned TO meet
again al o'clock. and when an at
tempt was made to have the house adj
joum at that time, the Democrats be-
gan a filibuster in an attempt TO keep
the house in session, thus preventing
the merchant marine and fisheries COM
mittee from meeting and reaching an
agreement. The minority leader. Mr..
williams demanded yeas and nays on
the adjournment vote. but count
showed that quorum was not present
and the house adjourned by a vote Of
143 to 80.
