TURNER and BLACK IN CLOSE RACE:
BRISK TIGHT FOR COMMISSIONERS

With practically every West.
ern Washington precinct heard
from, but with Spokane and sew
eral other Eastern Washington
counties still untabulated, today's
count of the Tuesday primary re-
turns showed Judge w. w. Black
and George Turner practically
tied for the democratic nomina-
ton for United States senator of
Washington.
1t is believed that the demo-
cratic nominee will not be known
until after the official state can
vas of ballots. Turner is slight
ly leading, but future returns are
expected to still further compli-
cate the totals.
Gose May Lose.
Two features of the race for
supreme court justice are of in
terest today. They are the fact
that Justice Chadwick has prob
ably received sufficient votes to
elect him on the primary ballot,
and the close race between Judge
HUMPHREYS, of Seattle injunction
fame, and Justice Gose for sixth
place. The nominees are Chad
wick, Grow, Mills, Pemberton,
Holcomb and either HUMPHREYS
or Gose.
Seven Precincts Missing.
In Pierce county there were
seven precincts still to be heard
from today, but no unofficial
check was kept on the vote in
any of them and the exact totals
cannot be determined until the
official canvas is made. The pre-
