Our work during the last week of
the campaign has been very encourag-

1--WE have a very complete poll of the
entire county and 1t is highly salts

and / think am in a position TO know
for / have been in every part of the
county several times during the cam
paign. the Republican ticket is going
to Ada county by a large majority.
While the Democrats have concentrat-
ed their forces to carry Ada county for
Wilson, on the other hand every Re-
publican has redoubled his activity
for his own ticket and ! firmly believe
that Hughes and Davis will carry Ada
county by no less than a two thousand
majority.
THE campaign has become more
partisan as it has proceeded and all
inc, that no Republican is going to
desert his ticket either the national
state or county. In view of the fact
that our next congress is reasonably
certain to be Republican the voters
are not going to take the hazard of
the election of a Democratic president.
The candidates nominated upon the

SUCCESS FOR COUNTY TICKET.
Chairman Stott of the Democratic
county committee gave out the follow
ing election prediction:
Never before in the political his
/ tory of Ada county have the Democrats
fought so hard and so consistently as
they have during this campaign. For
forty days and forty nights we have
been holding meetings at school houses
and halls throughout the different Sec
tions of the county and there is hardly
a voter in the county which we have
not reached.
| After a careful canvass of the sit
uation we are satisfied that for the first
time in the history of Ada county q
democratic presidential candidate will
carry the county by a goo vote.
might make some wild prediction and
say to you that President Wilson will
carry Ada county by 1900 or 1000, but
y ] do not care to do that; / want to tell
you honestly what | believe the actua
results will show as bases on the data
which / have at hand. President
Woodrow Wilson will carry Ada coun-
ty by majority of 700 or 500; Gov.
ernor Alexander will carry the county
by as large If not a larger vote thar
he. received two years ago and he Il
growing in popularity every day while
Mr.. Davis plurality is apparently
waning as the campaign draws to &
close. 1t is quite evident that the gov.
ernors greatest strength is in thu
country precincts and my committee
men who are in close touch with tn,
situation in these country. precinct
assure me that he will receive six votes
to one for Davis.
| AS to the county ticket l am con
fdent we will elect at least seven o
our candidates and we have fight
ing chance to elect two or three more
We are depending on the great strength
of President Wilson and Governo
Alexander to materially assist us OIL
the county ticket, this support togethe
with the aid of the independent vot
we feel sure will pull through the ma
jor portion Of our county ticket"
