 the 59 Cochise County precincts avail able at 3:30 this morning, it was aPr parent that former Governor G. w. P. Hunt would carry the county for the Democratic nomination by slightly less than two-to-one vote. Figures available from the 31 precincts gave Hunt 1462 and Ward 734.
 All available returns indicated that l. c. F. Adams had been defeated by Vance Johnson for the Democratic SUI pervisoral nomination. Johnson at 3:3O had 5S1, Harlie Cox followed with 4S9 and Adams was third in the race with 475.
 William c. Cox was leading M. c. Hankins. 1167 to 792, in the Warren District for nomination as county treasurer. Hankins supporters pre- dicted that he would at least greatly decrease this difference in votes when all Douglas returns were in.
 One of the surprises of the etlection was the showing made by D. P. Boyle. of Douglas, against John w. Murphy, of Globe, both candidates for nomina- ton as attorney general on the Demo cratic ticket. Il was apparent that Boyle would carry Cochise county by 300 or 400 votes.
 Only meger returns were received from Wilcox, but these indicated that Ward was running five to one over Hunt.
 It was apparentfrom reports through out the state. that all of the proposed amendments to the constitution were badly defeated.
 Next in local interest to the guberna- torial and supervisoral races was that for the Democratic nomination for sheriff At 3:30 this morning unoffi- cial figures received by the Review indicated that James F. Mcdonald, former sheriff, would be the Democra- tic candidate. At that time Mcdonald was credited with '9S3; followed by Capt. Harry c. Wheeler with 664 and Henry Bohmfalk with 533.
 In the race for county attorney on the Democratic ticket, John F. Ross, incumbent, was leading with 1O42 votes, George Roark was second with 46S and M. I. McKelligon third with 436.
 fudge A. c. Lockwood was far in the lead in the four-cornered Democra- tic race for nomination for the super for court, with 1885. The other Dem ocratic candidates for this office stood in the following order: Robert N. French S01, O. Gibson 730 and c. V. Manatt 375.
 Political dopesters. even the can didates themselves, were extremely doubtful this morning as to the out come of he state senators race. Charles M. Roberts, of Wilcox, for mer state senator, appeared safe with S49 votes. Who would place second, however, was a mystery. William Del bridge. of Bisbee was running close to Roberts with 800 votes. The vote boiled by Delbridge was one of the surprises of the election. Following Delbridge was Dr. w, P. Sims. with 75T; Tom A. Hughes was fourth with 736 and John Gull fifth with 462 Hughes, Sims and Gull were each con fident of polling a big vote in Doug las. only two Douglas precincts were completed by 3:9O today. and the ques tiOn of who will be the candidate for state senate to accompany Roberts on the Democratic ticket at the gen eral election will probably not be an swered until the last vote is counted in Douglas.
 At one o'clock this morning Walter Sheppard was 100 votes ahead of Hill Ruff. his closest opponent in he race for nomination for constable of the Bisbeo precinct
 John Roberts and Dennis Roche i.re
 running close for the Lowell cOnsta blo's nomination.
 For justice of the peace in the Bis bee precinct. w. B. Craig was not op posed for reelection. In the Lowel precinct. incomplete returns gave Ker dricks was ahead. with George R Smith his most dangerous opponent.
