Election Returns Disappear.

Nalterboro, Special.-A mysteri.
Gus THEFT was committed nj the Court
House last week. The canvassers OF
the State and county election met
for the purpose OF making up their
returns for the recent election for
the State and county offices. They
did not conclude their labors and ad-
Joulned, leaving ali papers apper-
tanning to the election in the Jury
room. The door was left locked,
but IN the morning. when Chairman
Breland and Clerk DeTreville came
TO finish up their reports, all the
papers had mvster;ously disappeared
during the NIGHT. Fortunately Mr.,
DeTreville had taken home with him
copy of the total votes east in each
precinct The law provides that
these papers shall be forwarded 10
the Governor and Secretary Of State.
and il is not known what effect. if
any, this theft will have. There
seems TO be no object q person would
have in stealing these papers, except
that il would destroy the validity Of
the election. There Is no clue as to
how these papers disappeared. The
board OF oanvassers will send the
the return from Mr.. DeTreville 3
copy and will await the decision from
the State authorities as 10 the legal
ity Of the election.

DispersarT Election is Declared
Legal.

Laurcns, Special.-The dispensary
election held Tuesday of last week
was declared legal and in accord
ance with requirements. The official
count showed $40 votes for sale and
1,4S0 against sale As announced in
o previous despatch, the election was
contested by Attorney c. p Sims Of
Spartanbure, III behalf of Mr.. Rhett
Coleman, petitioner. but the allega-
fions set forth in the petition were
not Sustained in any particular. At
the hearing, resumed from last Tues
day. number of witnesses were eX-
nmined, chiefly from among the man
ayers of the election, together with
Supervisor Humbert and Mr.. w. 7.
Crews, summoned by the petitioner.
1t appears from the testimony, ahd
was so argued by Mr. Featherstone
Tor the respondent. that not single
allegation set forth in the petition
was substantiated by the testimony
introduced, rot even that Mr.. Cole
man, the petitioner, was q qualified
elector and q taxpayer Further, ev-
cry manager examined testified that
the law was complied with III every
detail, while the petition alleges that
there were numberless irregularities
MI. Sims refused TO make any argu-
ment because oil three members of
the board were not present and left
for home at 2 o'clock. while Mr..
Featherstone argument was not
made until o'clock. Mr. Sims con-
tended that the two members pres
ent could not pass upon the matter.
The board ruled otherwise. Some
days ago Mr.. Sims stated that he
would carry the contest before the
State board. so it is presumed the
matter is not ended.

Twenty Votes Not Counted.

Aiken, Special-A rather peculiar
condition has arisen from the recent
municipal election, There appears to
be 20 votes that were not counted
Mt least one name must have been
left off from 20 ballots in counting.
There werc 13 candidates in the field
for aldermen. and there were 207
votes cast. As each voter must have
voted for six in order for the ballot
TO have. been legal, there must be six
times 297 votes for the total of
those received by the 13 candidates,
which would be l.7S2 However.
when the votes of all candidates are
added up, the total is only 1862, and
on tho face, of this it would appear
tbat 20 votes are uncounted. 1t is
understood that some parties are IN
siEting on the votes being recounted.

The CUBAN ELECTION
Gomez, Liberal Candidate, Elected
President BY Large Majority.

Havana. BY Cable-At the close of
an election which was conducted with
great enthusiasm and complete alb
sence of disorder. it appears practi-
,ally certain that General Jose Mig
uel Gomez and Alfredo Zayas have
oeen chosen President and Vice Pres
Ident respectively of the new Cuban
republic, with strong liberal ma
lorlties III the Senate and House.
Throughout the island. according to
the reports, an extraordinary heavy
vote was east, vastly in excess of
that east i'll the August election
where $4,000 failed to vote in n
total registration of 100000. This
was especially SO in Havana CITY.
where the vote probably will reach
ID per cent Of the Registrations
against 10 per cent in August. The
heavy vote was due. not only 10 the
prevalence of fine weather. but the
strenuous efforts made to bring out
the silent vote. The slow incoming
Of the returns is attributed partly to
the heavy vote AMI partly TO scratch
ed ballots on Representatives. In
complete official returns from the
precinct of Havana Indicated that
the city was overwhelmingly Liberal.
Few returns have been received from
the provinces but estimates give the
island To General Gomez by from
1000 To 5000. The Conserva-
tive leaders generally admit the de-
feat of their party.
