candidates but there Is much doubt publcon the Legislature I Is the hope of tIme Republicans that they will control It some of the leaders are very confident but the consensus of opinion Is that the contest IB close NO FUSION THIS YEAR Two years ago Gov Hunt was elected of 2160 At that time by n plurality tme perfect fusion between the there was a Democrats Populists and Silver Republicans Re-publicans This year there Is no fusion Republican party wont out The Silver Republcan part of business entirely An effort was made to disband the Populist organlza ton and nothing but a mere skeleton Is left which Is running a skeleton State ticket A large majority of the l Popu lists are thought to be In the Democratic Demo-cratic party but a great many of thcm have become Republicans SOCIALIST FIGURE Again the Socialist party has been organized in the Stale and has a full State ticket In the Held In some counties Stote coun-ties this has absorbed a large part of the Populists I will undoubtedly poll Populsts a considerable and practically all a of It will be from the fusion force of the last campaign t 1 REPUBLICANS HAVE GAINED In the changes In parties the Republicans Repub-licans have gained but to what extent can only be guessed They have also gained In the Immigration which has Elned large Tho immigrants in the agricultural counties have been largely from the Republican States of the upper up-per Mississippi valley In the northern counties where a large lumbering industry dustrv has been springing up the immigration im-migration has been from Minnesota Wisconsin and Michigan SPECIAL INFLUENCES Under all these circumstances the Republicans feel they would be on an even footing with the Democrats It there had been no special reasons to contribute to Republican success But there have been special Influences that contribute to prospects for success of I the Republican ticket These may be summarized as follows I HUNTS NOMINATION DISTASTEFUL DISTASTE-FUL The fenomlnallon of Gov Hunt was very distasteful to the Stcunonberg wing of the party His pardoning of Paul Corcoran the man convicted for murder committed at the time of the Coeur dAlene riots in 1SD9 put him In bad odor with that wing of the party and his administration line been of such a character as to Increase the sentiment sen-timent against him DENOMINATED BY DUBOIS He was renominated through the Instrumentality In-strumentality of Senator Dubols I Is admitted it would have been Impossible for him to have won the convention had not the Senator thrown his support to him DUBOIS WING BITTER Since then as 0 result of the pqnl tentlary Investigation the warden C E Ere n special friend of thaScna tors has been dismissed by l the vote of the Governor after the same official had voted for a resolution declaring him guiltless of any wrongdoing This has embittered the Dubols wing of the party against him though It has not taken tho form of open revolt on Limo part of the leaders I Is however Influencing In-fluencing many of the Dubois Democrats Demo-crats In all parts or the State WITHOUT SPECIAL STRENGTH Such are the conditions that weigh down tho Democratic ticket It Is without special strength at any point to overcome this defection The only thing upon which the supporters of Hunt have to rely la the claim that the labor union vote will be for him Irrespective Irre-spective of party but the closest observers ob-servers founded fall to find that the claim Is well REPUBLICANS ENTHUSIASTIC The Republicans with n very strong able ticket headed by John J Morri Eon for Governor and Burton L French for Representative In Congress l have been making1 an aggressive campaign and appear to have been gaining In every portion of the State Their meetIngs meet-Ings have been well attended hoo wel everywhere every-where and the people have shown much enthusiasm for the ticket PRESENT SOLID FRONT I I There Is no known defection In the i Republican ranks Whlla there hns been nn effort on the part of the Democrats Demo-crats to stir up bad feeling among the Republicans over the ascendancy of the younger element of the part Ithas not been successful I may possibly Influence In-fluence 7 few votes on the legislative tlckot In some counties but that will be slight If it materialize at all CLEAN SWEEP IN SOUTHEAST In the southeastern part of the State the RepublIcans claim thC will male a clean sweep The Democrats do not admit It but It Is I known that their con Ildontlal advices are to the effect that they hnvo little chance In that part of the Stale ADA COUNTY MAJORITY In Ada county In which the capital la located Republican managers claim they will Increase the majority of 350 two years ago to GOO this year and the Democrats concede the majority will be large In the mountain counties the Democrats will bo successful In most cases but In ElaIne which went for the fusion candldaton In 1000 by COO the Democrats will not get more than 250 this year OUTLOOK IN THE NORTH I Is in the north that the Democrats claim their greatest majorities Conservative Con-servative Republicans have not built high hopes on that section but the evidences evi-dences accumulate that the DemocratIc Democrat-ic majorities will be cutdown and In some Instances reversed Latah and Nez Perce counties were both very close In the lot election Hunt carried tho former by Ifi3 and lost the latter by nineteen The locnl Republican managers man-agers there arc claiming large majorities majori-ties this year and It seems quite certain cer-tain that the ticket will carry both counties SHOSHONE MAY GO REPUBLICAN In tho other three northern counties 1 the Democratic lead will be cut down and the Republicans are talking of carrying Shoshone a former Democratic Demo-cratic stronghold Koolcnal county will go Democratic by a reduced majority ma-jority suit and Idaho county will follow ESTIMATED MAJORITIES Unless the reports received by the Republicans from both end of the State are nil astray their State ticket will be successful They claim a majority ma-jority of 3000 but after making such discounts as seem demanded by conservatism

LEGISLATIVE OUTLOOK The last session of the Legislature reapportioned the State for legislative purposes inn manner that has made It much more dlfllcult for tho Republicans to secure control or that body than to elect tho State ticket The reprcscn lallon O some of the reliably Democratic Demo-cratic counties Is out of all proportion to their population PURPOSE GERRYMANDER The bill was enacted for
