Returns are quite complete. Fielder
won over Katzenbach by 1880. KATE,

defeated Joseph Camp by O. small ma
iority. William Porter, the present
Democratic incumbent, won from
Leonard I. Bushry in a close ngnt.
Ocean.
The result is still in doubt In Ocean.
It will probably take official hgures
to decide who won the nomination
for county officers. This Is part1cu-
larly true in the fight for senator on
both Republican and Democratic
tickets. Former Senator Thomas A.
Mathis, of Toms River, claims the
nomination, and his opponent, Joseph
M. Thompson, of New Egypt, Is out
of the county today, but his sup
porters say that from their returns
he Is still ahead. Both Frank X.
Austin. of Tuckerton, and William K.
Blodgett, of Point Pleasant, are
claiming the Democratic nomination
for senator, with the chances in favor
of Mathis and Austin as the rival
nominees.
Allaire H. Grant seems to have won
the Democratic nomination for county
clerk over Peter V. Hoyt, both Lake.
wood men. John Ernest apparently
has defeated w. Burtis Havens in the
Republican primary for the same
office, both Toms River citizens. Alex
Dunn, of Lakewood, has beaten Sena-
tor George c. Low as member OF the
Democratic State Committee, and
thus the Wilson adherents lost a
member OF that body and former
United States Senator Smith, of New
ark, gained man.
There was almost no Progressive
vote, but everywhere there were loud
denunciat'ons of the law which dis
franchised voters. Progressives were
refused the right to vote in their own
box by election officers, who enforced
that section of the law which says
man cannot vote in another primary
box from that he voted in the year
before. Scores of men in nearly every
township thus refused to vote, and
the light Republican vote of the
county is in part accounted for in this
way.

Warren gave Fielder, Stokes and
Colby majorities. The total vote in
twelve precincts in Phillipsburg was
