"Wet" Candidate The Victor | Philadelphia, \fay 19.-r-Repre8entative William S. Vare, of Philadelphia, an avowed "wet" is the choice of Pennsylvania Republicans as their nominee for United States senator. The overwhelming endorsement given his candidacy in hjs home city was sufficient to assure Vare a plurality in excess of 100,000 tonight with seven-eighths of the vote counted, although the combined votes of his two. I opponents, classed as drys, exceeded [ the winner's total by 200,000. His | opponent in the three corner primary fight, which ended at the polls*yes! terday, Senator George Wharton Pepj per and Governor Gifford Pinchot, conceded his nomination as returns from outlying districts failed by a wide margin to overcome the Philadelphia lead. His nearest rival, Senator Pepper, whose candidacy had the backing of some of the dry forces and of Secretary of the Treasury Mellon, attributed the Vare victory to "the organization," and declared an analysis of the returns failed to show any issue upon which the contest turned. The^total Republican vote was the largest ever cast in a state primary. With 866 districts still to report it was 1,379,219. , Death Sentence For Ross Warrenton, N. C., May 22.?W. L.
