SOLID DEMOCRATIC DEI
The People of North Caroli
For Marion Butler at t
jority of Nearly 7,01
York, New Jersy,
braska, Ohio,
Other States I
Mm rtttm
w j , *.
The reports from the election at a
distance indicate the largest demo
crane gams since 1002?a vernaoie
democratic landslide. New York,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Nebraska,
Connecticut all elect demo
emtio governors ami possibly Ohio,
j In New York the entire democratic
I ticket was-elected.
The next House will be democrat
ic by a good strong majority and the
democrats gain seven Senators. The
reports say that in C'hicqgo tile democrats
made the largest landslide in
years, and even Veonsylvania was
reported fas doubtful. If sueli a
spirit continues for the next two
years there uhill be no trouble in
p electing a democratic president.
Judging from their actions the
people of the entire country are acknowledging
that th^ democratic
party is the party for the people and
rnav the feeling continue.
8TATK
-T The best estimates obtainable befurf-gotng
to press show that the
entire State democratic ticket was
elected by a majority of about 50,000,
which is a decided gain 'for the
State. All'ten of the Congressmen
from this state .were elect* tl. with
the possible exception of the eighth
district, but indications point this
district to a'deniocrlitic majority.
In Wake county where the biggest
tight was expected, owing to
the trouble inside the party, the
straight democratic ti^kbt was elected
by a majority ot from 900 to 2000
and the Slate a'.d Congressional
tickets, by "above 2000.
. -COUNTY.
The election iti Franklin county
Tuesday passed off very quietly," bt t
the result was positive. The Democratic
ticket was elected hy majorities
ranging from 1411 to 1633?
every township in the county with
evcestion of HaVea?i|1e giving a good
W strortg majority for the ticket. Although
the total vote polled was
somewhat amaller than two veara
ago the per cent of increased major
ity over the republicans wae decisive.
In another column will be found
a tabulatecTvote of Franklin county
' by precincts.
The reBult Tuesday shows that
the people all over the country as
weli'^a in ' North'"X^arolioa and
Franklin county are in earnest about
good government and that tbey depend
upon the democratic party to
give it to them. It was truly a big
democratic victory and everybody is
rejoicing in the out oome. ;
