Following ia the report of the vote for candidates having opposition: For United States Senator 38 Bailey Chilton For State Senator Dawson Von Rosenberg Thi Legislature Brown Cullen First National Bank OF Maxwell McFall 26 1I1CTIN TFYAQ 30 II II IMIA I Up to 4:15 this moning, when The Statesman went to press, only partial returns had been received from the county and city primaries. Only a few wafds in the city had reported completely up to that hour, atid comparatively few from the county, the counting being very slow and unsatisfactory in progress.

From indications at that hour, however, it was a certainty that Bailey would carry the county in his senatorial race by a good big majority, possibly 1500 for the entire county. As to local matters, the race for district judge between Judges Frank Morris and A. S. Walker, was assuming rather a rub the neck collar appearance with the indications strongly favoring the success of Judge Walker, and it is believed that his success can be recorded. Out of seventeen boxes heard from last night the vote stood 1257 for Walker and 120(3 for Morris.

This did not include a partial count from the Seventh ward, which gave Walker 125 to Morris' 169. Walker comes out of the Second and Sixth wards, which are not counted in the above estimate, with fully 250 majority. The Morris contingent expected to come out of the Tenth ward with fifty majority. In conversation with Judge Morris about 'midnight, he stated that while he and Judge Walker had run very close in the city north of the river, that he expected to carry Sotrth Austin. The Walker people are confident from the unofficial returns last night that Walker would carry the election by about 500 majority and it is believed that said estimate is correct, as Walker expects to come down from the mountains with at least 200 majority, which are almost assured him from last night's reports.

In the matter of the county attorney race the contest seems to be close between Caldwell and Faulk, as out of the seventeen boxes e-ported, Caldwell has 1021 votes and Faulk 1004, with White polling 426., The race for sheriff is proving to be exceptionally but late returns last night indicated that Jim Davis had the race by a good majority, the vote for the seventeen boxes reported, however, stood 1314 for Davis and 1207 for Corwin. It was made evident last night that Ed Buleson had downed Ham Metz for assessoras he was leading from 1319 to 1121 out of the seventeen boxes reported, and the strongest Burleson boxes were yet to be heard from, and it is expected his majority will be 1500. In the race for representative, D. A. McFall and Taylor Moore were clear in the lead, with respective votes of 1019 and 1137 out of the seventeen boxes reported.

Anderson had secured 433, Brown 425, Cullen 762 and Maxwell 620. For state senator Judge Von Rosenberg showed every indication of having carried the county, though his vote over Dawson will not be so large unless his strongest boxes are yet to be heard from, as the vote last night stood 883 for Von Rosenberg and 823 for Dawson, with Yett polling 553. The Dawson people are confident that boxes yet to report will aid Dawson no litltle, and he may yet pull out. It was very evident last night that Judge Matt Johnson and Neal Begley would be the next justices of the peace, though no careful poll of their votes was kept. The report coming from Del Valle about midnight was that they would not be able to report last nigh, but every indication was that the aee there for district judge was exceedingly close and there would hardly be twelve votes difference between Morris and Walker.

This box reported a lead of 100 votes for Corwin. Manor A not finished her count the last heard and it will not be reported until today. Where there was no opposition the ticket voted the full strength of the precinct. The race for county school superintendent between Day and Brady indicated that Day would be the winner by a fair majority. The race for hide inspector lay between Searight and Young, with strong indications in favor of the first named.
