ONLY ONE RACE
 NOW UNDECIDED
RnOTON AND ARBUCKLE
ARE RUNNING NECK AND NECK FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.
 OTHER RESULTS.

lows:
 Charles Hillman Brough will be
 the next governor of Arkansas. Ho- gan Oliver of Ashley county will be
 auditor. J. l.. Bond of Marion coun- ty will be superintendent of public
 instruction. Thomas J. Terral of
 Union county will be secretary of state. John H. Page of Yell county will succeed himself as commissioner of mines, manufactures and agricul- ture. Rhoton and Arbuckle are run | ming neck and neck in the race for the attorney generalship.
 I With 116,102 votes accounted for, 73 out of the 75 counties reporting,
 Brough has 48,992, Smith 34,91S and Hodges 32,292. While few of the candidates have conceded defeat, the figures at hand are sufficient to tell the winners, unless something sen sationally unexpected happens and the men indicated as winners have leads too great for the sensationally unexpected to happen.
 The only change in the congress sional races made yesterday by later returns was in the Second congress sional district, where Congressman w. A. Oldfeld overcame the lead of his nearest opponent, T. w. Campbell, and at midnight had lead of 857.
 The vote with partial returns from nine of the 12 counties in the district stood: Oldfield 6,918, Campbell 6,061, A. G. Gray 2,37S.
 In the Sixth district Congressman
 Sam M. Taylor has a lead of T. Havis Nixon and L. E. Sawyer, his opponents for renomination. In the Seventh district Congressman w. s. Goodwin appears to have a safe lead over R. s. Warnock, his nearest oppo- nent for enomination. w. F. Me Knight is third and Senator J. o. A. Bush fourth, from returns received Congressman Otis T. Wingo, in the
 Fourth district had a strong lead over John R. Davis, his opponent for | renomination, from returns received l last night.
 The only doubtful state race now appears to be that for attorney gen. eral. Lewis Rhoton, the Little Rock candidate, overcame the leda early returns gave his opponent, J. D. Ar buckle, of Fort Smith, and late last night the returns showed the two can di dates about 1000 apart, with Ar buckle leading. Returns that came in yesterday increased the early leads of T. J. Terral for secretary of state over V. A. Beeson, J. l.. Bond for superintendent of public instruction over J. w. Kuykendall and Hogan Oliver for auditor over M. F. Dickin- son. MT. Bond had the largest ma jority of any candidate on the state ticket except John H. Page, from re- turns received at midnight. The race of Herbert R. Wilson, can didate for railroad commissioner from the Southern district, was one of the most remarkable of the cleo tion. Partial returns from 20 of the 30 counties in the district showed that he had more votes than his five opponents combined and that he car ried one county in which two of his opponents live. These returns gave Wilson 15,197 and the combined vote of his opponents 14,s8O. In the Northwestern district incomplete re- turns gave Walter G. Brasher of Dar- danelle an apparently safe lead over E. L. McHaney of Little Rock, with Oscar H. Vim of Little Rock third.
 ho Ia hx, I D ( Union county against John H. Page, candidate for renomination as com missioner of mines, manufactures and agriculture, is considered unusual in spite of the large majority of Mr Page, because of Gardner's late entry and the fact that he did little cam paigning before the primary. Page led in this race 37,462 to 1S,562.
 Wallace Davis has defeated Vim cent Miles in the first race for national committeeman ever staged in Arkansas. Mir. Miles was appoint ed to succeed the late Judge w. M. Kavanaugh as a member of the Dem- ocratic National Committee. The idea of selecting national committee men at primary was suggested by William J. Bryan at the Baltimore convention.
 The delegates at large to the na- tional convention and the district del egates will not be known until the of ficial returns are in because these races have been so entirely over shadowed by the more important races.
 Partial returns from AS counties received last night by the Gazette give the following results on the state and district races:
