WILL Be SECOND PRIMARY
To NOMINATE MAGISTRATE

A second primary will be neces-
sary to determine who the
Democrats of Fort Mill desire to
hold the position of magistrate
of the township to succeed John
w. McElhaney, deceased. This
was the announcement made
Saturday afternoon at the close
of the election in which four
candidates sought the nomi-
nation. Under the primary rules
of South Carolina to secure a
nomination in the first primary
it is necessary for a candidate to
receive a majority of the votes
cast, and as this was not ac-
complished by any of the four in
Saturdays election, Mr.. j. w.
ArdreY, acting for the county
Democratic executive committee,
T. S called a second primary to be
held Saturday, March 20.
The vote in Saturdays primary
was: R. P. Harris, 1O9; w. l..
Hall, los; S. w. Parks, SO; Ira
G.. Smythe, II. From these
figures it will be seen that the
second race will be between
Messrs. Harris and Hall.
An election in which more
interest centered than in that of
Saturday probably has not been
held here in a number of years.
Each of the four candidates are
popular citizens of the town and
the friends of each were busy
during the entire day in behalf
of the candidacy of their re-
spective man. The polling of
total of 281 votes was a sur
prise to many, considering the
very bad state of the weather
Saturday. The poll list of Fort
Mill township contains the names
of something over9 400 voters
and the total of Saturday was
pronounced a heavy vote, con-
ditions being considered. 1t is
believed that the second pri-
mary will bring even a larger
number of voters to the polls if
the weather is good, as the
interest which was so much
manifested during the first race
seems not to have abated since
the primary of last Saturday.
