New Turk, Sept 80.-Up-state re
turns late last night swung James V.
Wads worth into the lead over William
M. Colder, lp the race for the repub
lican nomination tor United States
senator.
Frederick M. Davenport 1 defeated
former Governor William Sulzer for
the progressive gubernatorial nomina
tion, late returns Indicated.
Governor Glynn. District Attorney
Whitman, and Ambassador Gerard
continued to add to their pluralities
up-state for the democratic and re
publican gubernatorial and demo
cratic senatorial nominations, respec
tively. With a majority of almost
100,000 already established, it appears
that Governor Glynn would finish
probably 125,000 votes ahead. Whit
man's plurality probably will be be
tween 50,000 and 75,000, and Gerard's
75.000.
A persistent report is current that
John H. Hennessy will make an in
dependent race for governor despite
his defeat by Governor Glynn. Hen
nessy has not committed himself on
this rumor.

give every moans of support, save
speaking to Governor Glynn, demo
crat, nominated in yesterday's prima

P.y W. T. Rose)
Raleigh. Sept. 80. Sidney W. Minor
of Durham has been unanimously
chosen colonel of the Third North
Carolina regiment by tha 40 officers
who. participated in the election, but
no such unity marked the balloting
for lieutenant-colonel In which three
popular majors were entered.
Judge Whsdbee has decided the test
case Involving the real estate clause
of the Inheritance tax act of 1S0S In
favor of the Tucker heirs of Raleigh,
whose astute formed the first eausa (or
litigation.
Attorney General Ckett had ruled
that th law was au between those
periods as to exempt realty. Tha cor
poration commission did not think so
and brought tha action before Judge
Whsdbee In order to get It Inte tha
Supreme court at the fall sitting.
Either side would have appealed anil
the commission will take It up when
appeals from this district are present
ed, whleh will be next -ck.
The chief interest In tbia case Is
among tax raisers. Tha commission
thinks that a favorable decision would
allow $100,000 collected from various
estates over North Carolina.
One of the last reminders that the
Ashevllle Fire department ever used
horses, the light racing wagon which
has been owned by the department for
many years, was sold Monday to the
department at Greer, 8. C, and ship
ped Monday afternoon. There only
remains now the names, "Frank" and
"Jeff", tacked over places where the
stalls for two of the favorite horses
of the department were quartered, to
bear mule testimony of the fact that
horses have been In the departmnt.
All other signs have been removed
and the roar of the big motor trucks
has taken the place of the neighing
of the faithful old horses that served
the department so well In the old
days, when spectacular dashea down
the sfeeta of Ashevllle were thrills
that called out the entire population
to witness.
When asked yesterday when the
names of the two horses last used at
the department would be taken down,
two firemen answered that they (II I
not know and hoped that they would
continue there for a long time, as a
gentle reminder that the best friends
tha firemen ever had are gone.
