that forty two counties are now
done and farther that the. Legisla

OUR RAL1EGH
COMMUNICATION
' s
Raleigh, N. C., Juno 2j ? As the
gubernatorial campaign draws to a
close the supported of both Bailey
and McLean^claim victory for their
favorite. Bailey adherents contend
that he will win hands down -? and
that "it is all over But the shout
ing." The McLean folk appear con
jfldent that he will "go over the
top" by a safe majority. Both can
didates have speaking engagements
which carry them through/-the .final
day of the contest. Eastern Caro
lina has .come to be - the battle
ground and the fight in "fast and
furious." . Many speakers are out on
the huntings boosting their respec
tive favorite and ' oratory will be
"the order of the day" until the
curtain is lowered on Friday night,
June 6th.
Aspirants for minor positions on
State ticket are viewing the situa-,
tion philosophically. They realize
(that the contest for the / governor
ship overshadows that of any other
office and are trusting their inter
ests to , friends who .attend the poll
ing places on election day; Twenty.'
one names appear on ,the ticket for
State offices and there ajre from
two to four contestants v for^ each
position to be filled. N Incumbents
expect their records to be sustained
and are endeavoring to let the folks'
have an account- of their "steward-'
ship" by mail and through the
newspapers. j
These primary campaigns are' tot
pensive luxuries. The candidates
have already reported expenditures 1
aggregating $22,000 to the ' Secre
tary of State in their preliminary'
Btatments. A /final accounting must
be made within ten days after the
primary. Mr. Bailey leads With an
expenditure of $8,880.64 and Mr.
McLfean is a close second with $3,
618.18. Latham, for Commissioner
of Agriculture, comes, nexj witljh irer
pert of having "parted" with nearly
l?00v f> dollars; Graham, $181.24.
The, others reports amounts ranging:
from $116 to a thousand and up
wards.
Three million ballots have been
mailed out to the counties, except^
hig< the thirteen which operate un-;
der #he Australian ballot system, by
the State- Bpard of 'jJections. Thrte
all to trucks' yrerm loaded ,T$th tick-,
eta and' the Raleigh port office did
"a land office buriM"*" for a ltftlfe'
while wken these trucks -dumped
their cargoes into the back door of
the Federal building. A greitt*
number of tickets' for the primary
will be needed this year than usual
in order to .accomodate the women
voters who are, for the first time, to.
participate ii) the nomination' of
candidates.
?. Blanks hive gone to the chairman
of each county board of Sections
for returns on the actual cost r of
the primary to each and every coun
ty. With a tabulation of these ex
penses tha cost of holding a primary
the State can bfc aecarttfely ' de
termined. It is estimated that the
cOst to the taxpayerm"'for the privi
lege of Voting in" the primary ' next
Saturday, after deductingentrwirt
fees, will "approximate l-' $40, W6;
, Under tie' convention - system of
making' nominations no tickets were
required there were no official to be
1*d for houdhtg an election.
226,000 democratic ballots were
cast for Corporation Commissioner
atnd AAsrfate Justice of the Supreme
Court in 1922. It is nof'balieVed
that the total caat In next Saturdajrs
primary will exceed that number.
Farmers are more concerned abont
working their ' crops than they _ are
ia naming candidates for office right

and that Is not far away. The Sur.
