A Canyon county error and official returns from several Idaho counties reduced Gov. Chase A. Clark's lead to 37 over former Republican Gov. C. A. Bottolfsen. The United Press count, with 826 of 846 precincts reporting, stood: Clark, 72,181). Bottollsen, 72,153. Late yesterday the Canyon county board of canvassers discovered a 218 vote error in Bottolfscn's fuvor. That counteracted a previous 160 vote error in Clark's favor found by the Gem county board of canvassers. Then the official returns and two Owyhee county precincts again cut Claik's lead.
