FIGHTS NOW At
FERYEhI HEAT
MOORE AND JOHNSTON IN DEATH
STRUGGLES FOR FIRST
AUDITOR.

The fights on for the State offices
are reaching a fervent heat. Last night
there were those vino claimed that

position of register of the land office.
white on the other hand Claims were
made that the new men coming In
were lining up pretty freely for Col.
Richardson.
While there were numerous prophets
to be found on all Sizes It Is believed
that the night will prove SO close that
neither man will be certain of his ac-
tual strength until the time comes to
vote. ------.--.--.-,
The bitterness of the fight on Judge
John G. Dew for the office of second
auditor attracted marked attention
yesterday, and there were many who
did not hesitate to say that the per
sonal attacks made upon the ofhciai
would cause a tide to set in In his
favor. Roosevelt Page has a strong
backing. but friends OF Judge Dew are
aggressively active, and they say they
every man that the interests of the
State will be subserved by the reten-
ton of tn judge In Office.
The fight for the Office of auditor OF
public accounts has for the instant APP
parently narrowed down to a death
struggle between Captain Charles A.
Johnston and G. Lee Moore, the other
two candidates, Mr.. Darnall and Coz.
Eugene Massie, having what has been
termed q dark horse interest In the
situation. Col. Massie on yesterday
published his platform In the after
neon newspapers. and his suggestions
as to the reforms needed In the Of
fee Of auditor and In the relations
existing between the State and It's
collecting agents were favorably COM
mented upon.
It was generally believed yesterday
that C. Lee Moore's chances for VIC
tory rested upon his ability to secure
a majority on the first ballot. Should
he fail Of success on the first ballot
1t was pointed out that there would
be a consolidation OF the forces Of
the other candidates on the strongest
one of them, Captain Charles A. John

il that event win the prize.

JUDGE Dew DENIES
AIDING RAILROAD
SAYS HE FOUGHT MEASURE IN
IArEt rLD MERGER

TO Richmond Virginian reporter
last night Judge John q. Dew. cam
didate to succeed himself as second
auditor, declared there was no truth
in reports that he had favored the
Richmond, Fredericksburg and Po-
tomac In legislation In 1910. Friends
of Roosevelt Page, Judge Dew's OPP
ponent. used his alleged efforts to
block legislation affecting the road In
the State Senate in an effort to So
cure votes for Mr.. Page.
The Page contention fs that Judge
Dew fought measures to have the
roads charter changed so that 1t
might be taxed, Under the charter
OF 1892 the road is exempt from tax
alton because OF large block of
stock owned by the State. Under
a new charter the road would be
taxed.
Judge Dew said last night he fought
the measure because the road wanted
to effect merger along lines mapped
out by majority stockholders without
consulting the State Corporation Com
mission. The road has never, he
said, evinced any desire for a mer-
ger while the Corporation Commits
sion may take a hand. Judge Dew
said further the measure defeated In
the Senate, although allowing the
road to be taxed, would In his opinion.
not benefit the State at all II a mer-
ger were effected.
Mr. Page's supporters yesterday de-
MED that he was friendly to tho rail-
roads as had been charged.
