VOTE IN STATE
IS VERY LIGHT
ELECTION IN SOUTH CAROLINA
CREATED VERY LITTLE
INTEREST.
SOME BALLOT ON BONDS
Several Votes Are Cast Although
Question Was Not Before People
For Action

Columbia.-The election in South
Carolina counties seems to have
created little interest among the
voters. Partial returns from over
half of the counties indicate that the
vote was lighter than usual. Practic-
ally no vote outside of the county
seats have been reported. During
the evening a report was received Of
about 5000 votes from some rs coun-
ties. The Socialist and Republican
tickets received little support.
The tickets for the proposed issue
Of cotton bonds were 1t many polls
and some were voted, although the
question was not before the people.
Indications from early returns are
that the question would not have car
.ried if a vote had been authorized.
In many Of the counties the regular
Democatic ticket was not opposed and
the nominees received all the votes
cast.
In Dorchester county two men who
ran in the Democratic primary ap-
peared as candidates for county SUI
pe%rintendents Of ~deucation. Joseph
A, Parler seems to have defeated ].
J. Howell by about 100 votes.

Democrats Did Well.

st. Louis, Mo.-SenatOr William j.
Stone Of Missouri, chairman of the
Senate Foreign Affairs Committee,
considers the result of the election an
emphatic endorsement Of the Wilson
Administration. He said:
"The Republicans have been saying
that if they could become united they
could lick us. They were united
everywhere and the contest generally
vas a clean-cut fight between the
Democrats, standing by Wilson's Adj
ministration, and the Republicans op-
posing it.
considering the fact that this Is
an off year; that the Democrats have
enacted a new tariff law and new
currency legislation; that we have
had to meet the hard times cry, and
that a great war is on which has alb.
sorbed public attention, I think the
Democrats have done remarkably
we'll"

probably increased majority. Al
though there Is uncertainty regarding
the election In Utah and Nevada in
dications are that the new Senate will
consist of So Democrats, 80 Republi-

ton Of Senator Reed Smoot, Republi-
can, of Utah, practically was assured
tonight. Senator Newlands of Neva-
da, seemed in danger of losing his

In states where the fight was hot

lioht Vote in York.

Fort Mill.-A light vote was polled
throughout York county. Word be-
came generally circulated that the
proposed cotton bond issue would not
reach the people and th{s information
doubtless was responsible for much Of
the apathy. There was little interest
in the election here, less than 100 Of
the 400 registered voters going to the
polls to cast their ballots.

Governor Sends Message No. 10.

Message No. 10 of the extraordinary
session was received in the senate
recently from the governor. This
was in. the main an argument against
the proposed bond issue, based on
technicalities of the constitution.
The first argument was that the
author of the bond issue project, Sen.
ator Alan tombstone of Newberry, was
not legally a member of the senate,
in that he was a trustee and chairman
of the board of trustees Of Clemson.
Another was that all bills providing
revenue should originate in the house
