Al one o'clock last night available
figures indicated that Geo. w. Eean
mao won out in the primary for the
republican nomination for governor.
*. .. Richards, chairman of the pro-
sfesslVe state committee did no at
that time concede the state to Mr..
Eean but said that he was about a
thousand votes ahead on the returns
up to that time.
Governor Wesley was running close
behind him with Elrod bringing IN
third place.
The congressional ticket was in
doubt there not being sufficient re-
turns to base a safe estimate, but the
progressive congressman appeared to
be in the lead. Martin was running
ahead of Burke in many places and
Schrader was running close to Thor
son who appeared to lead in the ON
gressional vote.
The progressive state ticket seemed
to be safe although there may be
some exceptions. Returns were very
slow in coming in and nothing defin-
lite about the state ticket will be
known until today.
Returns show that Burke is gener-
ally running behind Martin.
