Boise. Idaho, Aug. DENOMINATIONS

Han closed today and the two old par
s,os - republican and democratic -
launch their respective campaigns to
name men who shall go before the
electors at the general election. There
are complete congressional and state
tickets in nomination. All doubt as to
who would be the standard bearer Of
fhe democratic state ticket was re-
moved when Ex-Governor James H.
Hawley filed the nomination of Gov
ernor Moses Alexander, who will ac-
cent 1t. There will be no other demo-
cratic gubernatorial nominee and
there will be but one or two con-
tests for nominations on the balance
of the ticket. With the republicans
an entirely different situation has de-
yeloped. There are contests for every
place except one on the congressional
and state ticket. That exception is
for lieutenant governor. On the demo
cratic ticket there is, however, con-
test for this nomination, two candid
ates having appeared.

ing about for long time to find a
