I I The S'ate, Sept 3. The State Democratic executive committee met lust nigbt in the office of the secretary of state and tabulated the voto for the candidates for State offices, for coDgreas and solicitor. After the transaction of the routine business, the committee authorized the chairman to call a meeting of the committee on the 20th of September for the purpose of tabulating the vote in lhe second primary. Two unusual occuirences were noted at tho meeting last night. One is that tho vole for State otlicers is incomplete, the roturns from Beaufort and some other counties not having been forwarded. The other matter of nnuguui interest is that tho vote for the State will run over 100,000?the first time in the hi-tory of the Democratic primary. Last night with the official returns frem four counties missing the reported vote was 9(5,000. And this, in view of the fact that in Charleston fully 500 people neglected to vote the State ticket at all. shows this to have been the heaviest vote in the history of the Democratic party io the State. Greenville and Spartanburg alone cast a vote equivalent to that of half a dozon counties of ordinary voting strength. The exact figures for the nominees for State offices could not be given last night but will be available to day. The total vote for railroad uonmiissioner was reported, and is as follows: I Cansler 11,586 J Earlo 21,212 Evans 19,207 Garris 20,376 Gignilliat 9,691 Mobley 23,213 Total 105,285 The second race between MesMPM Mfililnif onfl yoi-l" " -I ? ... ?uv.vj nuu linun 19 clll exciting a great deal of interest and the tinish will he close.
