SUMMARY Of STATE
The News and Courier accounts this
morning for about 77,000 votes. At
tho~hour of going to press with this
edition the vote stood:
Dial ------- ------ ---------.45,997
Blease -------- -------- --..-27,703
Rice --------.----- -------- 3,121
Mr. Dial's lead over Blease was 18,
294 and steadily growing. It is prob
able that. the majority against Blease
will approximate 30,090 when the to
tal vote has been accounted' for.
Short Tern Senate
In the race for the short ternm Sen
ate, the vote as accounted for at 1
o'clock stood: Benet, 17,245; Peeples,
18,320; Pollock, 19,053. There will be
a second race between two of the
three.
Governor's iace
. In the Governor's race it seems cer
'ain that r. Cooper has won out easily
on the first ballot. The returns in
this race are not as complete as in
the senatorial contest, but at 1 o'clock
they were as follows: Bethea, 5,566;
Cooper, 33,562; Deschamps, 376; Dun
can, 512; McLaurin, 070; Richards,
17,123. Mr. Cooper ,it will be seen,
was leading all his competitors by
around ten thousand, and had double
the next highest candidate, John G.
Richards, of Liberty ill, who was on
the Blease slate.
Other Contests
In the contest for Lieutenant Gov
ernor it could not be stated whether
