President Takes States Claimed
By Both of Riual Candidates

Republican, Idaho, was conceded by
his Democratic opponent.
In West Virginia, the native State
of John W. Davis, Mr.. Coolidge was
leading by narrow margin, but in
Maryland he was counting two votes
to one for Mr.. Davis, and in Indiana
he was leading Davis by 5000.
Davis was ahead in Missouri and
Tennessee by ratio Of two to one
on the early returns and was leading
by lesser majorities in Oklahoma and
Kentucky.
The first returns from Wisconsin,
which has been regarded as the cor
nerstone OF the La Toilette strength
gave Coolidge 1900 to 1888 for La
Toilette. Throughout most Of the
east the Independent presidential
candidate ran far behind, but on
early returns he was running second
to Coolidge in both North and South
Dakota.
First reports from Iowa, which has
been claimed as La Toilette state by
his campaign managers. showed Cool
idge with majority over the combined
vote of Davis and La Toilette, who
were running neck and neck for Sec
