ONE CENT ISTER WINS BY 5,000! ILSON'S ELECTION SEEMS SURE sree ! CLAIMS 10,000 BUT IS SURE OF HALF THAT Gov. Lister has been re-elected. This is confidently announced at the democratic headquarters here, and his lead over Henry McBride, republican, i is placed at 10,000 by them. It is safe to assume, however, that Lister has won by at least half that plurality. | Lister leads in King county with 2,000! votes, 2,000 in Pierce county, 1,500 in Spo-| kane, 1,500 in Walla Walla county, and a| slight lead in the rest of the state. This may overcome somewhat by more complete! rns from the southwest, where McBride, leading. Gov. Lister’s election is one of the big- gest surprises of the election in this state. Up to the time the polls closed, McBride was a two to one favorite. It was an even money bet that McBride would win by 25,000. GOV.
