SEMI-WEE KLY. VOLUME 90. DURHAM. N. C, NOVEMBEE 6, 1908. NUMBER 12. RESULT OF ELECTION IN COUNTY AND STATE Three Republican Congressmen and Bryan's Majority Will Be Less Than 20,000 DEFEAT ONE OF THE SURPRISES OF THE DAY Democrats Lose in the Fifth, Eioiiili and Tenih Districts. Durham Demccrtic by Varying Maiorilies. Har ward Leads the County Ticket. The result of the election in North Carolina wa3 what some say they expected, but many had been led to believe that the State would send a solid Democratic Congress to Washington. How ever, this will not be the case as the Fifth, Eighth and Tenth Districts will be represented by Republicans. tfrooks, in the Fifth district, was defeated by Si3 vc tea majori ty for Mcrehwi Charles II. Cowles. Republican of the eighth district, was' elected with a ma jority of 1.800 over Hackett. John G. Grant, republican, won out over W. T. Crawford in the tenih district with a majority of 335. All other congressmen elected were Democrats. The entire statu ticket va3 elected by Democrats, the ma jorities rargins frcm 20,000 for Bryan to 42,000 for Kitchin. jl l mm cheated. HmtMi Rccelm Hajarllj Tela c! filia Cotiaressicnal District The friends of Hon. A. L Brooks were disappointed when it was learned that he was de feated for congress by his oppo nent, John M. Morehead. The official vote has not yet decided, but all indications are that he is defeated by more than a hundred majority. The defeat of Mr. Brooks is peculiarly pathetic for many reasons: He entered the race in a district that was safely Democratic by a majority of more than 5.000 and lost out. The causes of his defeat is attri buted to many things, but chief amonj? the causes may be ascribed the hard fight made upon his official carter as solicitor by his own party men. Republicans hoped for gains in the State on account of the prohibition move, and really made gains, but the fact that Democrats fought so hard against him before the nomination was against him on j every hand. I The following special from j C.reensboro of the 5lh gives the figure which tells the tale of liritoks defeat: I "At 2 o'clock today the worst fears about the congressional race had been realized when apparently authentic figures re ceive! from btst of authority In the various counties of the dis trict showed total majorities in the district of 2, for More had!o 2,142 for BivnS. Mr. iWik. while not concetiir.,? de- .it, admits that only the .:Hnal v ik'can decide the actual result." PLKSGN' GOES KEPISIU A tegular landslide tor the Republi cans la Ttlt County. The vote in Person county was a great surprise to the Democrats f this county, as well as to the publicans. The Democrats elected on the county ticket tho Register of Iteeds, and two County Commis- "'"ftcrs: Eclow we give cstimat- j l,l majorities in the county: For President Taft carried the : county by about 143. ! Kitchin has about 50 majority. Morehead, Republican, about slo3. j J. A. Long, for Senate, has .about 150 majority. ! F. O.

The election in Orange County pawed off quietly and was hotly contested by the friends of the various candidates. Unofficial returns indicate the election of Sparrow, Republican, over Gattis, Democrat, by a ma jority of 00 to 75. Sheriff Andrews, Democrat, is re-elected Sheriff over Miller, Re publican, by about 115 majority. Charles Strayhorn, Democrat, is elected Clerk of the Court. Uncle Joe Laws, Democrat, the old veteran Register of Deeds, will continue to issue marriage Menses. His majority is 300. I'arrish, Democrat, claims his election as County Treasurer by a!!it 45 majority over Cole, Re publican. Il will take the official count to dtclde the election of County Commissioners. The returns in dicate the election of two Demo crats, J. D. Webb and Charles E. Wilson, and Wm. R. Lloyd, Re publican. The Board of County Canvass ers will meet in the court house at Hillsboro on Thursday, Nov. 5th to canvass the county returns. Kitchin is elected Governor of North Carolina by a large majori ty. In this Senatorial District Manning, Democrat, of Durham, and J. L. Scott, Jr. Democrat, of Alamance, are elected. Jones Fuller is elected Solicitor without opposition. The News and Observer claims the State for the Democrats by 40,000 majority and concedes Taft election by a considerable majority. It is impossible to give correct returns in this issue.
