The Nevada County picayune. (Prescott, Ark.) 190?-current, 1908-04-02
JOBE AND LUDWIG WINNERS
Attorney Generals Contest, However,
Is Still Open and Probably Will
Not Be Settled Except by Gift
ciaI Count.

nesdays primary is now centered al.
most entirely in the race of Hal l..
Norwood and p r. Andrews, for at
| torney general.
Until Sunday morning there was
great deal of interest in the races be-
tween O. C. Ludwig and J. c.. Clary,
for secretary of state, and John r.
lobe and John M Oathout, for audi
tor. Returns received Sunday and
Sunday night, however, leave practi-
cally no doubt that Ludwig and lobe
are victorious candidates in the two
races. According to the returns re-
ceived, Ludwig has a majority of 4,272
votes, and lobe majority of 1926
votes.
From all indications the Norwood
Andrews race will not be definitely
settled for several days, as the official
returns from scattering counties are
very slow in coming in. In several
counties the County Central Democrat
ic Committees will not meet until the
latter part of this week, and 1t will
be impossible to obtain official returns
from those counties until then.
According to the returns received,
Norwood has a total of 1850 votes,
and Andrews a total of 30,212 votes, in
the counties reported thus far. The
counties still TO be heard from are:
Benton, Carroll, Clay. Independence,
Johnson, Logan, Lonoke, Madison,
Montgomery, Newton, Phillips, Scott.
Stone, Van Buren, and Woodruff.
In the contest for secretary of state
the returns from SO counties show that
o. c. Ludwig has a majority of 4,272
the vote being: Ludwig 1858, ]. c.
Clary 2S.311
From the same number of counties
the returns give ]. R. lobe, for audi
tor, a majority of 1926, the vote be-
ing lobe 1884, Oathout 21,955.
In the gubernatorial contest 20 coun-
ties, the returns from nearly all of
which are official, show that George w.
Donaghey has received 52,512 votes,
w. F. Kirby 1886, John H. Hinemon
81 col, the plurality for Donaghey be-
ing 1886.
