The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1900-08-03


In this tabulation we have counted
nothing Democratic except counties
which we believe are certainly in the
Democratic column. Of the doubtful
counties, the Democrats feel sure
they will carry fully one-half if not
more. @ss
In the West the discouraging news
comes from Macon, which is said ito
be in doubt, Alexander, which is pro-
badly Republican, and Caldwell, which
is Democratic by narrow margin.
The good news from the West is that
Buncombe gives a good Democratic
majority, thus insuring the election
of two State Senators, and Burke,
which gives a larger majority than
ever before. No news has come from
the smaller far western counties, re-
mote from railroads, and we put them
in the doubtful column.
The Populists will not have single
member of the Legislature unless they
have carried Sampson, which would
give them two, and Chatham, which
would give them one, making three
all told. They may get one or two 9TH
erS.
The Republicans will have all the
balance of the opposition.
AS near as we can reckon from late
advices, the Legislature will be COM
posed of the following members:
