RALEIGH, August 4, l810-Noon'
North Carolina Elections.
The returns of the elections are meagre.
Conservatives have made large gains in all
portions of the State heard from. We
carry Cabarras, Rowan, MecRlenburg,
Orange, Johnston, Guilford, and Franklin
counties. Wake county is doubtful. The
town of Graham is under martial law I'M
der Kirk, and gave 500 Republican ma
jority. The Radicals are gloomy and the
Conservatives hopeful.

vative gain on last election, 756. Promt-
nent Radicals in Greensboro admit their

Third Dispatch.
RALEIGH, August 5, 1919 p. N.
The Conservative majority in Rowan
county is 450-an immense gain. Rowan
was Republican at the last election. Ran
do1ph gives a Conservative majority
heretofore Republican. Leach, the Con-
servative candidate for Congress in the
Greensboro district, is elected by hand
some majority over Scott (RadicaD. This
district is now represented by a Republic

SENTINEL.
Fourth Dispa tch.
GREENsB oRo', n. c., August 5, 1870.
Reports from the eastern counties give
heavy Conservative gains. Dockcry is de-
featedf for Congress; Waddell, Conservative,
elected in the fifth congressional district.
General Leach, Conserv ativc, about $50
majority. Radical majority two years ago
800. There have been immense Conserva-
tive gains throughout all the middle coun-
ties of the State.
In the western part Of the State the Con-
servative gains are overwhelming, giving us
the Legislature beyond doubt, and it is
thought enough to secure Conservative
United States Senator. We will elect three,
if not four, Conservative members of Con-
gress.
Josiah Turner, editor of the Sentinel,
was arrested to-day by Kirk, on warrant
from Holden, and taken from Hillsboro' to
the company shops, to be transferred, we
suppose, to Yanceyville. Z.

his way to the depot at Hillsboro', Orange
county, and arrested by Governor Holden,
declared in Instruction, and no disturb

The vote is very close in this county
| CWakc), with heavy Conservative gains.
The Republicans confidently expected 200
majority in this city. but received only
| about 80. 1t is thought now that two Con-
sentative candidates for the House OF Dele
| gates have defeated the two colorcd Repub-
lican candidates, and that James II. Harris,
| the negro candidate for Congress, has lost
the county by Il small majority.
The vote for senatorial candidates IN
! Franklin county is very close, with chances
! in favor OF the Democrats. This Will be Il
| tremendous Conservative gain.
| Rowan, Mecklenburg, Cabarras, Orange,
and Guilford have gone Democratic.
| In Alamancc county the Conservatives
were so inundated by llolden's militia
that they did not vote, so the county went
largely Republican,.
| The vote in Granville and Franklin coun-
ties is very close, and is not yet decided.
1t is confidently expected that Johnston
and Chatham counties will be largely Demo-
cratic.

Third Dispatch.
WILMINGTON, n. c., August o.-Rettlrns
received to-day from the western and cell
| trail portions of the State indicate the cleo
| ton of four Conservative congressman from
the third. fourth, sixth. and seventh dis
tricts, and the fifth district in doubt. The
Conservatives gain in nearly every county
heard from, leaving but little doubt OF Il
majority in the Legislature on joint ballot.
The returns already in show that the Con-
seryativcs have gained twenty-five members
in the Legislature, with more than half the
counties yet TO hear from. 4 gain OF thirty
six members will give them majority on
Joint ballot.
In this congressional district Oliver II.
