today from yesterdays state presi-
dental preference primary are use-
full only to determine tho exact
pluralities rolled up by Theodore
Roosevelt and Champ Clark over
their respective opponents for the re-
publican and the democratic nomi-
nations for the presidency.
Roosevelt's plurality is estimated
Taft and LaFollette. Clark leads Will
son by probably 10000.
Throughout the state the vote was
comparatively light. This is regard
ed as surprising in view of the stren-
uous campaign waged for the repub.
llcan preference and the keen inter-
est that was everywhere manifested
by the huge crowds drawn by the
campaign orators.
Roosevelt has proha bly, carried ev-
cry county except one. Even San
Francisco. where determined effort
was made by the Taft managers to
make good showing for their can
didate. favored the colonel by a
plurality of 3,347. Roosevelt carried
Los Angeles by more than two to
one.
LaFollette found consolation only
in San Diego. the county which re-
turned him his only plurality in any
division of the state.
The Industrial Workers Of the
World troubles there are said to have
made sentiment for him in that sec.
tion, the theory being that the citi-
zens resented the investigation order

Clark's victory over Wilson is suf-
iciently sweeping to justify the pre-
election claims of his campaign
managers. He also proba bly, carried
