RETURNS ARE MEAGRE
EARLY REPORTS INDEFINITE
AS TO VOTE IN GRANT COUNTY.
WOMAN VOTE SURPRISE.

An effort to get returns on the vote
in the county yesterday proved futile
last night. This was due to the heavy
vote cast and the slowness in count
ing. Many precincts did not close the
polls until s O'Clock and as a result
the vote was not counted until near
midnight In the cities where the wo-
man vote was strong the heavy cast
ing OF ballots took the election offic-
lals by surprise. The upshot of the
situation is that a complete vote will
not be had until late today or tomor-
row. By Saturday, however, the reg
ular canvas will be made and next
weeks Herald will contain the full
vote in the county
Early returns indicated that Blaine
had carried the county. In many pre-
cincts it was Blaine against the field
of other candidates for governor.
For congress the returns Indicate
Monahan's strength over Nelson ar
Shuttleworth. 1t seems fair sur
mise that Monahan has carried the
county.
Lenroot was running we'll ahead of
Thompson with McHenry a poor
Cu1Iu IL SS0HS THAT senator L0nrOOta
has carried the county but full returns
will settle this point
The vote on assembly in the first
district was scattered among the
three candidates. In the secord dis
trict the returns indicate that Ruka
has lost to Tuffley
In the vote on sheriff Starr of Ian
caster was ahead on the early returns.
He showed much strength the
west part of the county. Hymer Of
Lancaster carried Potosi village. The
vote from the east and south sect
ions was not obtainable and the issue
is in doubt until the strong Holmes
and Johns districts are heard from.
AS it stands it will be between Starr
and Holmes but later returns will
tel the story.
For district attorney the home city
CT the two leading candidate: gave
Clementson a tremendous majority
The vote as given out at o'clock
las the count was III progress) was
Clementson $50 and Orchard 1874. The
vote from the ncrth and west sect
offsets Clementson's majority. Glen
Haven Bloomington town and village
Liberty, and Patch Grove gave Orch
ard majorities The issue is in doubt
and the result is bound to be close.

HAYDEN-SIMMS MEETING.

The reception given by Santa Cruz county's Democrats and their friends last Wednesday evening at the Lyric, was the Rreates, most enthusiastic ever witnessed in Nogales. The big play house was crowded to the doors by hundreds of friends of Congressman Carl Hayden, Hon. Nit Simms, R. R. Earhart, Wiley Jones. Ed. Hughes and Tom Foster, Democratic candites.
 Music for the occasion, for the success of which credit is largely due J. A. Legarra, Dr. Wuer- schmidt and Arcus Reddoch, and Democratic ladies of Nogales, was furnished by the 25th Inf. band.
 Mrs. James A. Harrison, chair mau of the meeting, in most pleasing manner introduced the speakers, saying nice words for each. She made a strong plea to American women in favor of the League of Nations.
 Ray Earhart, Tom Foster and Ed Hughes made short talks in behalf of their candidacy, after which Hon. Wiley Jones, candi- date for attorney general, de- livered an impassioned speech, during which he literally took the cuticle from off Governor Campbell, Republican candidate for governor. He called a spade a spade; hoe hoe, when speaking of the governors posi- tion on the state land commis- sion matter.
 The last speaker of the even ing was Hon. Nit Simms, Ari. zona's next Democratic governor, who made ringing speech on the state land questions. Mir. Simms' address was the pleasant surprise of the evening, and his many friends and admirers say it was sure enough vote getter.
 Thursday the Hayden Simms party invaded Cochise county where every candidate on the Democratic ticket is going to re ceive a great majority November SecOnd.
