County's Registered Vote.

There has been much speculation as to
the relative strength of the two parties in
this county as indicated by party affilia-
ton. Through the efforts Of John Jones,
clerk to the county board of supervisors of
elections, who has just finished an inspec-
ton Of the registration books. definite in
formation is finally available.
According to statement prepared by
Mr. Jones, the total registered vote Of the
county is now 1928, of which 12,4l7 are
whites and 3.Sll colored. The Democrats
number $500, the Republicans 6,2S6.
Prohibitionists 4S, Socialists IL. Progress
sives 8, while 5l4 are unaffiliated. The
figures, however. are said not to show the
exact strength Of the big parties. as a
large number of Republicans are under
stood to be affiliated as Democrats. so as
to be able to participate in the Democratic
primary elections, and virtually all the
unaffiliated are said to be Republicans.
