Madison County Primary Returns.

Returns from the primary eleCIlOL
held Tuesday have been slow in COM
ing in, scarcely any precinct outside OF
Norfolk being complete. Practically
all the tickets of both parties nave
been lost sight of except in the con-
test for sheriff and commissioner. Re-
turns from eighteen out of twenty
four precincts in Madison county give
an indication of results on the con-
tested positions which are not likely
to be materially changed when COM
plete returns are in. These indica-
lions are that c. S. Smith has been
nominated republican candidate for
sheriff, while J. F. Flynn Is in all
probability the nominee for sheriff on
the democratic ticket The returns
from the second district give Burr Taft
the nomination for county commits
sioner by majority of votes.
