Brock and Hammer to Run Again for Congress in Second Primary. Hoke Wins for Associate Justice. Second Race Will be Between Judge Adams and Judge Long. Sheriff McDonald Defeats Carl Shores for Sheriff by 291 Ma jority. AH Five Members of Old Board of County Commissioners Re Nominated. A big vote was cast throughout the State in the primary June 5th. The full returns are not yet complete, but it seems pro bable that Morrison will lead Gardner by a few votes. The latest returns available up to going to press tills (Thursday) afternoon rive MORRISON 48,030, Gardner 47,476, and Page 30,096. This, of course, is not final and a number of precincts are yetto report over the State. However, it is definitely settled that Morrison and Gard ner will contest in a second primary for Governor July 3rd. And the Morrison forces are expecting the majority of the Page vote will come their way. In the fight for Congress from this seventh district, Hammer, of Randolph, led, but lacked about 2424 votes of getting a majority. Hammer secured approximately 7143 votes, Walter E. Brock, of Anson, came next with 5246, and John Vann, of Union, third with 4310. A second primary wBl be held July 3rd for Ham mer and Brock. If Brock and Hammer each get their same vote in the second primary, Brock would then have to get but 66 per cent of the Vann vote in order to win. And that Brock will do this his friends are confident. In fact, John Vann on Wednesday of this week came to Wadesboro and voluntarily pledged his loyal support to Brock. And this is the spirit that will actuate the big bulk of those who voted for Vaun; they will come to Brock, of our neigh boring county of Anson, instead of going to Hammer, of Ran dolph. The Post-Dispatch hopes that Richmond county will rally solidly behind Brock in this next primary. It seems certain that Judge W. A. Hoke has won for Associate Justice, but a second race will be herit for judge Adams and Judge Long. And here again it is hopeJSHbnond county of Moore. county,; Sheriff McDor will favor a Aetghbor In the contest was renominated for Sheriff Dy '3 Shores.

The Post-Dispatch has been put to a considerable amount of time and effort to compile and prepare this tabu lated form, but the result is well worth the work in the apprecia tion of our readers.
