The revolution at th?? polls Tuei> day which swept Franklin I). Roose velt into the White Houc and elimi nated Republican offite holders all over the country, reached into the remotest regions of these mountains to elect the entire Democratic ticket in Cherokee county for the first time in fifty-four years. The Cherokee Democrats received majorities ranginr from 3 to 654. Henry Truett wa* elected by three votes over his Republican opponent, James H. Crisp, while B. L. Padgett received a majority of 6M over W A. Hoyd, the Republican candidate, for Register of Deeds. The only counj.y office won by the Republicans was* that of county cor oner. Dr. S. C. Heighway was elect ed to this office without opposition, receiving 3069 votes. However, it is believed that the Republicans fared much better in the town *\ip offices, having won all three Justices and Constable office in Murphy township. The official figures on the township officers were not available for this week. J. C. B. Ehringhaus carried the county for Governor by a majority of 152 over his Republican opponent, ?Clifford Frazier. Robert R. Rey nolds, Asheville wet, carried the county by 96 votes over Jiie dry Republican opponent, Jake F. Newell. Zebulon Weaver, Democratic can didate for CongTess carried Cherokee county over Crawford F. James, Republican, by 168 votes. Governor Roosevelt _ carried the count y over President Hoover by a majority of 217. Roosevelt received 3348 votes; President Hoover 3131; and Norman Thomas, Socialist, 25. This majority for Governor Roose velt is made all the more impressive when it is realized that Cherokee county has heretofore gone Republi can for the past fifty years by major ities, reaching 900 and over. Pres ident Hoover carried the eounty in 1928 by a majority of 1342 over Alfred E. Smith. The Democratic majorities for county officers are as follows: For State Senator: JL A. Patton 118. For Representative: G. W. Cover, JV. 224. For Sheriff: L. L. Mason 238. For Register of Deeds: B. L. PaJ gett 654. For County Commissioners: F. O. Scroggs 158; E. C. Moore 332; T. T. Johnson 55. For Surveyor: Henry Truett 3. "orrections In a recent issue it was stated that all parties involved in the political fights submitted before the mayor. This is incorrect, so far as W. A. Boyd, candidate for Register of Deeds, i^ concerned. There were no charges a' tint Mr. B- yd, and he did r?.: h vc o submit. This correction i* gladly made, and it is regretted that it v = overlooked last week. In a recent issue of the Scout in reporting a Fpeech by Jake New el!, ibvr- were more than 300 people v iio hc.-^d hin Th<" Scout it was given a51 30.
