RALEIGH, N. c., June 10.-Josiah
Bailey, who led the regular Demo-
cratic faction of North Carolina in
defeating Senator Furnifold M.
Simmons in the primary election
last Saturday, is convinced the 1928
lift in the party has been healed.
The nominee thanked his sup
porters for the plurality of $4,000
which swept him to victory over
the veteran Senator Simmons, who
had led his followers against AL
fred E. Smith in the last presiden-
tial election and whose political ma
chine had been all-powerful in this
state for thirty years.
Belief is general that the defeat
Saturday marked the final retire
ment of the 76-year-old senator.
Results of the Republican party

senatorial race for George Pritch-
ard.
