HIGH MEN FOR COUNTY ATTOR.
NEY AND ASSESSOR WILL TRY
CONCLUSIONS NOW.
RETURNS ARE NEARLY
COMPLETE
Only Two Small Precincts Unheard
From, Which Will Not Affect
Candidates Standing.

With only the small precincts of
Fort Gardner and Green Pond un-
heard from. practically complete re-
turns from the county are given in
the figures printed below. These have
been carefully compiled from the
most authentic sources, and. while
there may be some minor discrep-
ancies, the result will not be affected
thereby, and the figures are as nearly
absolute as will be possible until aft
er the official canvass by the county
executive committee, which will take
place at Barlow tomorrow.
1t seems now that there will be but
two races for county offices in the
second primary, to be held May %.
R. B. Huffaker and l.. c. Johnson, the
two high men in the contest for pros
ecuting attorney. are already active
ly at work hustling for votes in the
final bout In the assessors race the
returns showed L. w. Bates and W.
L. Thompson running so close togeth-
er that 1t was uncertain for a time
which would enter the second pri-
mary with J. J. Boynton, who led ir
the first. As late returns filter in,
however, 1t seems that Bates has a
small lead over Thompson, and the
race, therefore, will be between Boyn.
ton and Bates.
In the representative race. J. c.
Brown was elected in the first 60
round. The returns show r. W.
Hancock had nearly. but probably not
quite, a majority of all the votes cast,
and thus may have failed of election
by a very small margin, While We
do not make the announcement with
authority, it is stated today by friends
of w. E. r. Robson that he will not
contest with Mr.. Hancock in the Sec
ond primary. but will allow the lat
ter to stand elected. making the Polk
delegation consist of Mr.. Brown and
Mr.. Hancock.
J. A. Johnson for clerk. and Ma
rion Lanier for tax collector. having
secured majority of all the votes
cast, are elected without the neces-
sity of entering a second primary.
One Of the surprises of the election
was the result in the contest for con-
gressman from the First district. This
county was considered one of Mr.. |
Phillips strongholds, but Mr.. Spark
man seems to have carried the county
by small majority.
For member Of the state executive
committee from Polk county, Mr.. Os-
car NJ. Eaton seems to be elected by a
large majority over Max Reif. who
has held the position a number Of
years.
Dan Marshall was elected constable
In this district by q large majority
over w. s. Parnell.
In Precinct No. 25 the count was
completed about s o'clock Wednesday
morning. but 1t was nearly 3 o'clock
last night before the tired election Of
ftcers finished counting the heavy
vote Of Precinct No. 10. They were
relieved during the day BY other tell
ers. The job Of counting large pre-
cinct like East Lakeland with such 4
ballot is one not to Be envied.
The following figures are PRACTICAL
ly correct. the few votes yet to be
considered making no difference in
the result:

June 27.-The delegates to the democratic

It was expected to be the day Of the
climax, the end OF the long campaign
waged by the presidential, aspirants. And
as they came into the hall these delegates
were apparently as much at sea as ever
as to who would be the nominee. The
various boomers of candidates were ready
to start demonstrations and counter dem
onstrations. and 1t seemed certain that
the delays would be such as to throw the
actual balloting late into the evening.
All sorts of rumors were afloat as to
deals and combinations during the fore
noon, but not one Of these seemed to have
a trustworthy foundation. The support
