PRIMARY FIGURES.
Returns Received Up to Tues
 day Morning.

Dallas, July 29.-Primary election re- turns up to o'clock Tuesday morning, representing about 100000 votes, indi- cate Attorney General Davidsons ma jority will be about 10000. He had a lead up to Tuesday morning of 14,219
 As to other contests, it Is indisput- able that Robison has been nominated for land commissioner, Cousins for su- pernitendent of public instruction and Davidson for pudge of the court of criminal appeals. As to the race for controller, the News has kept its ac. count of the returns until now, but it is evident that there will be no longer any necessity for doing so. as MT. Stephens has gained lead of over 10,- 900 votes over Barker, which seems to make it certain that he has been re- nominated.
 The congressional contests are all decided except that in the Second dis trict between MT. Cooper the incum- bent, and MT. Dies. The count shows 9,92S for Cooper and S,4S6 for Dies. This would seem to show that MT. Cooper has been renominated, but dis patches from Beaumont say that still fuller returns got there give Cooper lead of only 300, with Panola county to yet hear from. It is conceded that Panola county is favorably disposed to Dies. Therefore the result of this contest will depend on what Panola county has done for Dies. As yet no full returns can be got from that county.
 For submission the vote stands IT, OPS for and 79,031 against.

TAFT SENTIMENT IN DELAWARE.


II HE Democratic noise about disruption OF
i the Republican party in this State and the
lining I'D of the administration and ITS opponents
threatens to fall very fiat.
Senator Dupont takes his own time and his
own manner of doing things and Of expressing his
opinions. AS the senior senator OF the stare Il
was naturally expected that he should give some
expression of his views regarding the situation IN
Delaware, and he has spoken in no uncertain ian,
puage 1t would be presumptuous on the part OF
The senator to declare an iron clad opinion or 10
issue mandate or an order that Delaware ke-
publcans shall do this thing or that thing.
The action of the Delaware Republicans VIII
be taken in a convention of the delegates to be
held at Dover, and OF course Senator DuF on, i,,
cannot speak with certainty what that action VIII
be 1t is open for the Republicans who are elect
ed as delegates to the convention to voice their
sentiments regarding the present administrator
and the conduct of the party. Some doubtless
would be pleased to see Senator DUPONT issue IN
structions like a military commander, but that
has never been his policy. Those who have at
tended Republican conventions in this State know
well that often the convention has gone against
the personal ideas and wishes of Senator DUPONT.
The field therefore is open to all Republicans
In some districts two sets OF delegates will be
nominated to be voted for to represent the party
In the convention. These delegates, when elect
ed will have ample opportunity to state their
views and to use their influence in the convention
in accordance with their notions of what the con-
vention shall do
Interest in the interview printed from SEN
ator Dupont is heightened by the announcement
of State Chairman T. Coleman DUPONT in The
JOURNAL, which statement declared that Mr..
DUPONT would not be surprised to see the Della
ware vote cast as a unit for Secretary Taft. And
this statement is characteristic of the State chair
man. He never pretends to predict to certainty
what will be done by the delegates TO a conven-
Il. al. .Nr1 "a
Dover without Instructions and they will exer-
else their own judgment in voting for a presi-
Dental candidate They will of course, be gov
erned by the sentiment OF the delegates at the
Dover convention.
In view of these opinions of Senator Dupont
and the State chairman, the man of straw labeled
the powder influences" which have been pic
tured humorously as endeavoring to control
Delaware politics disappears No one ever CON
sidered it seriously.
Evening journal., 1908-03-24
Paid up subscriptions.

Dover News.
We hope our senator's and represen-
tative in Congress viii try to get some
modification OF that unjuest and confs-
catory post Office decision to carry only
paid up newspapers in the mails as
second class matter We don't know
what our congressman can do. but
hope they might at least assist in hav-
ing this ban lifted from rural weekly
newspapers. It is going to be a tre-
mendous blow to weekly credit papers
to settle up this back business by April
1. 1t would be much better ~ January
/, 1909. These slow subscribers, most
OF them, win pay up. They are worth
the money and cannot avoid the debt.
But they are not going to stand an as
sault on them about it, without throw
ing up the paper. We never remem-
ber to have seen such freshness and
incompetency in any department of
our national government II Is the act
Of upstarts who ought never to be
given arbitrary power like this. The
government Is able TO carry the mails
as Il has always carried them, and has
money left TO waste in every direction.
