Looks Like Hawley.
At this writiog(Thursday after
noon) it looks like James H. Haw
ley was elected governor over
James H. Brady by 400 or 500
votes, but it may take the official
count to decide the matter. Brady
carried Ada, Bear Lake, Boise,
Bonner, Canyon, Cassia, Latah,
Lincoln, and Oneida counties by
a plurality of about 4503, while
Hawley carried Bannock, Bing
ham, Blaine, Custer, Elmore, Fre
mont, Idaho, Kootenai, Lemhi,
Nez Perce, Owyhee, Shoshone,
Twin Falls and Washington
counties by about 5183. This
would show Hawley as 680 ahead.
Brady carried Ada county by
235 votes, and Canyon county by
539. He carried Oneida county
by 1350, and Hawley carried Fre
mont county by 1350.
The southeast (known as the
Mormon vote) evidently favored
Hawley and the northern counties
also.
D.
his
for
Hon. BurtbU' L. French was
elected, and tîlé'entire republican
state ticket,- by large majorities,
Governor Brady being the excep
tion.
In Ada county every republican
county candidate was elected by
majorities approximating 1200.
One of the surprises of the elec
tion, however, was the success of
Carl A. Davis, democrat, who wins
the district judgeship over Fre
mont Wood by about 500 votes.
As the saying goes, Davis "ran
like wild fire," and he evidently
converted the people during the
campaign to the idea that the
judgeship should be taken out of
partizan politics. It was hard to
find anyone in Meridian the day
after election who would acknow
that there was anyone running but
Davis.
O. V. Badley, democratib candi
date for secretary of state, rail
ahead of his ticket in Ada county
by 500 votes. The election results
show, as far as Ada contaty is con
cerned, that the temperance cause
has made remarkable gains, as
Brady, Badley and Davis all re
ceived a fine endorsement.

Nearly everybody voted for Carl
Davis. He is a former Meridian
citizen, but now a prominent Boise
attorney.
He was raised in Boise and' on a farm
near Meridian, and attended the state
university at Moscow two years. He
also took a course in law at Washington,
D. C., receiving the degree of Master of
Laws from the national university. Mr.
Davis has educated himself by hard
work and economy, and while in Wash
ington he was employed by the govern
ment in the bureau of corporations,
principally on legal work. He has been
admitted to practice law by the highest
courts, including the Supreme Court of
the United States, and has been en
gaged in law work for over ten years.
About four years ago he established
his residence in Elmore county to care
for a ranch he had there, and was
elected state senator by the people of
that county, serving in the last legisla
ture, where he did good work for the
people.
