IRBy ON FRAUDS.
Senator Igby has paid no atten.
tion to oil the talk Of Pope and
his friends of fraud. He ,ghed
at these charges and the aime
he has spoken of the 1aoscter was
in the presence of his friends when
he SAID that q fairer election has
never been held in this State.
UNSATISFACTORY RETuRNs,
There has never boon al cleo
tion in the State in which the re-
TURNS wore received here in q more
unsatisfactory manner. They
have not been only scattering but
meagre. A telegram would be re.
ceived either ut Democratic head
quarters. OF by tho Western Union
saying that @ certain county had
gone. for Evans, and tho. conven.
ton by certain majorities. An
other, telegram from some other
county would give the full vote
tor each man and on the conven.
ton question. This mixture pre-
ventN newspaper mon from getting
up tables giving the actual figures.
Anything like the correct vote by
counties will not know until the
meeting of the State Board of Can
vaBsers.
CONVENTIONAL DISTRICTS.
Chairman Irby did not pay
much attention yesterday to the
vote in tho Congressional Dis
tricts. The telegrans tho night
before showed plainly that Demo-
Gratis had been elected in every
district by good majorities. Even
Elliott had pulled through by
sefe majority in tho First District.
Up to 10 o'clock last night par
tial returns received from each
Congressional District made the
vote stand.
: First District-Ellott, 3,57l:
Murray, 1888.
: Second District-Talbert, 1856;
Sinpkins,
l. Third District-Iatimer. 1876:
Moorman, 36G.
Fourth .District-Wilson, 4,9l7;
Motion, 1897.
Fifth District--Stratt, 1853;
Davie, 969, Alexander, 1869.
Sixth Observation-Disclosures,
1874: Wilson, 585.
Seventh District-Stokes, 8, ,966 {;
Johnston, 1852.
! GOVERNOR AND CONVENTION.
-Four compete coi.nties and par
Etiel returns from 81 out of 35
counties up to s O'Clock last night
gave Evans for Governor, 1926:
Pope, 1864. The samo returns
gave tho Constitutional Conven-
tion Is SAG, against convention 49,
958. Later returns ran the totals
up to about 10000 for the conven.
tion and $1,000 against. This
ought to leave no doubt in the
minds of those who are claiming
the defeat of the convention that
they are mistaken. The precincts
to hear from are all in the country,
and the vast majority of them will
give majorities for the convention.
The official figures will elect
Evans by between 10000 and 25,-
600 and carry the convention, as
stated, by between 1000 and 5000
INTEREsTINa TABLES.
A representative of the Register
has prepared two tables. In one
of them is given tho majority
(which Pope or Evans has received
or will receive in each county.
The other gives tho actual majority
or estimated majority in each
county for or against tho conven-
ton. It Will bs heen from somo
of tho counties thGt precincts are
missipg. In every ono Of tho coun-
tics, except in Beaufort and Ber-
kelley, the missing precincts will
give majorities for Evans and the
constitutional Convention. The
Gubernatorial table shows L. ma
jority for Evans of 1870. The
missing precincts will run his ma
jority up to the figures predicted
