M. Pace wha had no opposition from the democrats, and who was therefore elected, receiving 1227 votes. The following is how the vote stands with the two above mentioned precincts not counted: J. H. Ballenger, 892 majority over V. E. Grant; J. 0. Williams 819 over Grady Ed ney ; G. W. Justice 907 over J. W. Mclntyre ; V. C. V. Shepherd 788 over S. J. Whitaker ; Press Fletcher 770 over J.- A.

The county gave Weaver a majority of 369. A slight change in these figures will probably be complete official returns. ; Frpjn the above figures it will be iwen. that- the IhaMSil-. y government win b hands of the democrats for the Text two years. It, is v.ery evident from the number' ofvoters who did not come to he pollsts well as those who did that the republicans of the coun ty were determined to give the demo crats, a chance to prove themselves. Many republicans stayed, away from the polls and among the votes cast there were more scratched ballots than' ever before throughout the en tire county.' " The election went off as smoothly as possible and all parties concerned have taken the verdict in the best possible spirit and when the new offi cers go into office in December they will have the voters ojLthe county, democrats and republicans behind them for better county government. The new officers will have the good wishes of all the people and they will be expected to make good. It ' is realized in all quarters that Lfitest Results in Race Froth , (By the Associated Press) .
