Scales Had No Opposition.

Especial to News and Observer
Greensboro, n. c., Aug. Nv hliS
it is impossible to get complete returns
from all Democratic primaries held
in Guilford yesterday and last night,
enough of the precincts took a poll
to show that A. M. Scales, of Green's
boro, had no opposition. For the
Senate, Wescott Robinson, OF High
Point. and DR.. j. r. Gordon, of James
town, are probably nominated for thd
House. The present register OF deeos
Kirkman. has large majority for re-
nomination, and Sheriff j.. F. Jordan
has safe majority. Indications now
are that the present treasurer, NC
Kinney, is defeated by McNary, the
contest is so close it will have to De
decided in the county convention
which meets Saturday.
The primaries were largely attend
ed and no bad feeling developed,
though the fight was lively.
