BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 11.-With
James Hawley. democrat, leading
Governor Brady by $50 in the con-
test for the governorship, the DEM
ocratic state chairman today
claimed that Hawley has been
elected and estimates that his plur-
ality will be in the neighborhOod of
800 votes. On the other hand the
republican managers declare that
Brady has been elected by an esti-
mated plurality of 800 votes. This
estimate was based on the fact that
as precincts, counting 5000 votes,
remained to be heard from. Neither
Brady nor Hawley would issue any
statements. indicating that both are
doubtful as to the final outcome.
The next senate will contain 16
new members and will be composed
of 10 democrats and 13 republicans,
giving the republicans a majority of
three in that body.
Although the republicans are
pledged to pass constitutional
amendment to enforce state wide
prohibition, they will not be able to
do SO unless aided by the demo
Gratis. owing to the fact that they
have not the requisite two-thirds
