Have Won Over Oppo
sition Of A1 Smith.
Returns from Tuesday’s elections
indicate the Democrats have again
captured control of the house, the re
sults giving the Democrats 217 seats
to 215 for the Republicans.
Briefly summarized, the results fol
low:
The democrats:
Took three of five congressional
elections.
Captured a republican stronghold in
the eighth Michigan district.
Advanced to a majority of one in
the house with 217 seats.
Attained a big lead in the guberna
torial race in New Jersey and expect
ed victory. —
Elected Michael J. Hart in the
eighth Michigan; John J. Delaney in
the seventh New York, and Martin
L. Sweeney in the twentieth Ohio.
The republicans:
Elected John B. Hollister in the
first Ohio district, represented for
years by Speaker Longworth.
Elected Edward L. Stokes in the
second Pennsylvania.
Their house membership was
brought to 215.
In the Kentucky gubernatorial
race, results were being tabulated
Wednesday.
Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt appar
ently had won his argument with
former Gov. Alfred E. Smith over the
advisability of New York spending
$19,000,000 to plant trees on aban
doned farm lands.
New York city, Tammany strong
libid" an<iu{feS‘.fQEIBer„£0-Y££nor,s par- j
ticular bailiwick piled up a hugiS4COte_
for the amendment, 121,979 to 69,
105 in one-third of the city’s metro
politan districts.
At Washington, D. C., the latest
news of the standing was watched by
the White House and party head
quarters. Many members of Congress
personally inquired about the stand
ings.
While major interest was in the
congressional races collectively it went
as well to the gubernatorial election in
New Jersey and Kentucky, and the
reforestation amendment voted on in
New York.

ate While Two More Are
Expected.
Although the primary is almost
eight months away, many persons
seeking elective offices in this state
on the Democratic ticket have an
nounced candidacies, while a still
greater number have intimated they
might also enter the race, according
to a list tabulated by The Watchman.
This matter of keeping up with the
candidates, with the woods full of
them, is a problem, but as near as the
status can be given at this writing it
is something like this:
U. S. Senate—Cameron Morrison,
Charlotte, incumbent; Robert R. Rey
nolds, Asheville; Thomas C. Bowie,
West Jefferson, and Frank D. Grist,
Raleigh, announced A. L. Brooks and
Mills Kitchin, Greensboro, prospects.

Willis Smith and Josephus Daniels,
prospects.
Lieutenant Governor: A. H. (San
dy) Graham, Hillsboro; D. F. Giles,
Marion, and D. P. Dellinger. Gaston,
all likely prospects.
Secretary of State: J. A. Hartness,
incumbent, and Stacy W. E. Wade,
Raleigh, announced; Robert Grady
Johnson, Pender, likely candidate.
State Auditor: Baxton Durham, in
cumbent, and Chestre O. Bell, Raleigh,
scmi-announced.
State Treasurer: Nathan O’Berry,
incumbent, may or may not run,
probably not, but has made no an
nouncement. Many prospects awaiting
his decision.
Insurance Commissioner: Dan C.
Boney, incumbent, probably will have
no opposition.
State Superintendent of Public In
struction, Dr. A. T. Allen, incumbent,
probably will have no opposition.
Corporation Commissioner: Stanley
Winborne, incumbent, probably will
have no opposition
Commissioner of Agriculture: Wil
liam A. Graham, incumbent; Fred P.
Latham, Belhaven; Laurie McEachern,

The two drunks staggered into a
place where a wrestling match was
going on and took a seat near the mat.
They were just in time to see one of
the wrestlers get a head lock on the
other, from which the latter finally
extricated himself.
The two athletes were kept busy for
about 30 minutes and then wrestler
number one again got the headlock
and the other again attempted tc
break away.
The two drunks rose and made theii
way out. One was heard to mumbh
"Lessgo. We saw that part when w<
came in.

KNOWLEDGE
To know the mighty works of God
to comprehend His wisdom and ma
jesty and power; to appreciate, in de

ing and acceptable mode worship t<
the Most High, to whom ignoranc
can not be more grateful than knowl
edge.

A certain old lady was so concerned
about one of the villagers who was
unable to write that she persuaded
the village schoolmaster to give him
some lessons. Some time later she met
the villager and said to him:
"Well, George, I suppose you are
now able to read the Bible fairly eas
ily?”
"Lor’ bless you, mum,” he replied,
"I was out of the Bible and into the
football news over a week ago.”—
