except that they show the election
of only two out Of five county com
missioncrS.
These two are members of the old
board, and are w. G. Brewer and j..
W. Pegram. The other three Will
have to be chosen by the convention.
1T is understood that Mr.. j. A. KEMP
who received u very large vote II
Wake county. will not accept if nomi-
mated His name will, therefore, be
dropped and it is stated that the
name of ELI +. Scarboro will probably
be substituted.
The returns show the nomination
of the following persons to be be-
ycnd question:
1Iouse-E. c. Beddingficld, John p
Pearson and Il. y. Simms.
Sheriff-M. w. Page.
Register-W. II. Hood.
Treasurer-B. p. Williamson.
Commssioners-W. {. Brewer ard
j. w. Pegram.
The other inatiOnS-SenatOr or,
three commissioners, coroner and sur
vcyor-will be made by the CONVEX
ton.
For Senator Snow and Broughtou
are in the lead-Snow in the city and
Broughton in the country. Both fall
considerably short Of the 80 votes III
convention required for nomination.
The total votes. with several pre-
cincts to hear from, are: Snow. 9GI;
Broughton, 10; Maynard, 429. As
the precincts yet to hear from arc
known to be strong Broughton pre-
cincts, their votes will make the
Broughton and Snow votes very near
Nv equal. But neither will have enough
to nominate. Maynard holding the
balance Of power.
OF Shows 997 votes, he received $40
in the city and 14S in the country.
OF Broughton's III, he received 272 in
the city and 445 in the country.
OF Maynard's 429, he received 2S6 in the
city and 143 in the country.
These votes show that Mr.. Shows
greatest strength is in Raleigh, while
Mr.. Broughtons is in the country.
The contest in the convention will
probably be between these two, and the
man who gets the Maynard delegates will
win out.

encts yesterday were as follows:
