Various Counties put Haywood
Man we'll in the Lead.
Baskerville Citizen)

That Hon. w. T. Crawford 10 nomf-
mated for Congress seems apparent from
the returns received from the counties
which voted yesterday.
HE majority In convention votes may
be very small but it seem none the less
sure.
Chairman M. L. Shpman of the con-
Pressional committee, and who has
done more than any other 70 secure the
victory for Mr.. Crawford. when seen
last night, felt confident Of Mr.. Craw-
ford's nomination Allowing Crawford
22 out of 80 votes N Haywood, 6 out OF
Is in Cherokee, 3 out of In Graham,
10 out of 20 In Jackson, 8 out of 10 In
Swain, aud 8 out of IL in Transylvania,
he figured l39 convention votes for his
man, Eve more than the necessary l34.
His estimates are exceeded by the votes
O far received. Haywood is said to
have given Mr.. Crawford "a instead OF
- and information from W~aynesville Is
that he swept jackson and carried
Swain two counties supposed to be for
Gudger.
Mr.. Gudger had received no advices
from the western counties last night.
OF course some allowance must be
made for the difficulty In obtaining re-
turns from distant precincts but the
estimates given by correspondents are
doubtless sufficiently correct and indi-
cate the counties vote.
Haywood County.
The reports from the various pre-
cincts in Haywood county, which were
received up TO midnight add to Mr..
Gudger's vote. In the South Waynes-
Vile precinct, Mr.. Gudger got It's votes

cinct had reported as against the Hay
wood county man. In North Waynes-
| vile precinct Mr.. Crawford got lie
votes and Mr. Gudger got 50, while In
Clyde he got AZ against Mr.. Gudger's Il.
TrnnsyIvnnla County.
Transylvani0 also went in favor Of Mr.,
Crawford. Brevard went So for Craw-
ford and q for Gudger. All the other
precincts but two had reported and gave
Mr.. Crawford about nine of the twelve
convention votes.
Mir. Crawford arrived In the city from
WaVnesville last night and said that he
was well pleased with the vote he receiv
ed. He believes he has the race well ir
hand.
Mr.. Crawford, when % at midnight
stated to The Citizen that he felt graft
fed beyond measure that he had carried
every township in his own county.

CROP REPORTS
ARE ALL GOOD.

dition of the crops in the Memphis cot

General Improvement and crop ad-
yancement is noted for the past week.
In the territory covered by these re-
ports the rainfall has been light to mod
crate, even in cases spotted. No trouble
has arisen by reason OF excessive fall
and no drouth complaints are made ex-
cept from few West Tennessee sec
tions, and these are not serious. As a
result Of the favorable weather, cultiva-
tion has been pushed rapidly. The
fields are exceptionally cloan, many cor
respondents reporting that not in years
has this feature been so pronounced.
Some sections where the early condi-
tions were not so favorable az for in
stance in Northern Alabama, West Ten
nessee and parts Of Arkansas, the plant
is still reported small but it's growth
has been healthy, the plant is stocky
and is looked upon as giving promise
under moderately favorable future con
ditions.
An almost entire absence Of insects Of
any kinds is noted. Some Of the young
cotton had lice as q result OF the cool
nights 10 the early part ot the week. All
correspondents, however. who take note
Of any effect from the few cool days
state that the plant has made fair prog.
ress where hindered at all. Early com.
plants of poor stands are subsiding as
the plant obtains larger growth.
Squares and blooms are becoming quite
general and for its early stage the plant
seems to be fruiting we'll. Correspon-
dents note that the excellent state OF
