John p. Stokes was probably nomi
mated by a safe vote for state senator
yesterday. defeating both John B. Jones
and w. r. Armfield. Tk1s is indicated
by the returns from &c precincts, and
his nomination was assured it was con
coded before midnight.
For congressman the result is still
in doubt, although Smithwick's friends
up to an carly hour this morning are
claiming his nomination. Kehoe, how
ever, polled q very heavy vote in all
sections, and many counties through
out the district gave him a handsome
tally.
Possibly the surprise of the day was
the defeat Of J. George White by one
vote by James r.. Largue, the defeat
of Mr.. White being the only break n
the present board Of county commits
sioners.
The weather was unseasonably hot
yesterday and that materially inter
fered with the vote. None of the pre-
cincts polled near their respective
strength.
Probably the heaviest vote was polIed
here by Cade E. Shackleford, who was
a candidate for tax commissioner. and
his vote all over the state was flatter-
ing. and II is thought that he is elected
by good safe majority Mr. Shackle-
ford was in Pensacola during the day
and his friends rallied handsomely to
his support.
