The latest report which we had from Tuesday's election indicated that the second race for United States Senator would be made by A. C. Latimer and John Gary Evans with a possibility of Johnstone taking Evans' place. For Governor Heyward leads all of them and will make the second race with Ansel or Talbern. All these are good men and the State will not suffer with any one of them in the executive chair. The Lieutenant governorship will be contested for by Sloan and Gary. For Attorney General Gunter is safe, and the lead is sufficient to assure the result in his favor. For Secretary of State Gantt and Wilson will make the second race. It looks that McMahan is re-elected, though Martin is close behind, and the official count may change matters in this race. For Comptroller General the second race will be made by Jones and Walker. Both these gentlemen occupied posi tions in the Comptroller General's office the past year. For Adjutant and Inspector General Frost and Boyd will make the second race though Patrick received a very flattering vote. For Railroad Coommissioner Evans leads with Caughman and Mobley not far away, and the vote yet to hear froni may change the position of these candidates. In the Congressional races Legare is nominated in the first district. In the second Bellinger and Croft will make the second race. In the third Alken leads, and will run over with either Price or Smith. In the fourth Johnson is nominated. In the fifth Finley leads and may win out over his competitors, but if not will make the second race with Strait. In the sixth Scarborough had no opposition. In the seventh Lever wins by a large majority. The indications are that the vote in the State will not be as large as two years ago, possibly on account of the rain. It was a quiet election every where. In many of the counties a sec ond race will be necessary for county officials and members of the Legisla - ture. -_ _ On the first page of this issue are given The State's totals of all votes in the first primary heard from up until Thursday morning. A more complete report in The News and Courier some. what changes the outlook. Latimer still leads for the Senate with Evans second, but Johnstone goes to third place. The vote is: Elliott, 10,624; Evans, 13,587; Hemphill, 11,730; Henderson, 11,247; Johnstone, 11,725; Latimer, 19,988. For governor Heyward leads,- the vote being: Ansel, 14,570; Heyward, 28,790; Talbert, 13,789; Tillman, 13,603; Timmerman, 4,188. For Lieutenant Goveraor: Blease, 14,241; Gary, 26,778; Sloan, 21,141. For Secretary of State: Austin, 17, 619; Gantt, ?4,239; Wilson, 18,880. For Attorney General: Gunter, 37, .671; Stevenson, 34,995. For Comptroller General: Brooker, 13,915; Jones, 20,015; Sharp, 15,830; Walker, 22,283. For Adjutant anid Inspector General: Ayer, 2,158; Boyd, 19,775; Frost, 21, 548; Patrick, 16,309; Rouse, 3,441. For Superintendent of Education: McMahan, 36,216: Martin, 36,055. For Congress-Third District: Aiken, 3,343; Graydon, 1,064; McCalla, 1,901; Prince, 2,306; Rucker, 1,114; Smith, 2,191; Stribling, 2,096. On the basis of these figdres, it looks very much as if Heyward and Talbert will be in the second race for governor, though Arsel may hold second. A special from Columbia at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon gives the follow ing fig ares: In the Senatorial race: Elliott............................ 10,944 Evans ............................ 14,212 Hemphill. ....................... 11,730 Henderson.........................11,356 Johnstone ......... ............. 11,376 Latimer ................. ...19,658 In the race for Governor: Ansel.........................15,440 Het Ward..... ..... ........ 31,438 Talbert............................14,139 Tillman .......................... 13,866 Timmerman ..................4,839 If the city council could put some sand and gravel with the mud now on our streets and have it mixed we would soon have some good streets again. The streets are now in good condition for the mud and sand to mix. We would like to see it tried on afew of them. ________ The managers and others who as sisted the newspapers in Teeuring the returns on Tuesday night have the thanks of the newspapers and hope they will assist us again on-the night of the second primary. The news papers do this work for the benefit of the public or rather for the infor1na tion of the public and any assistance rendered is a contribution to this bu reau of irformation. In the second primary there will be probably as much or more interest than in the first as there are some sec ond races which will probably be close. No one should feel secure. Over confidence of one's friends sometimes costs him many votes. Do not be sure of anything but he sure to cast your *ballot for the men of your choice and take no chances. THE VERY t Al EST The Herald and News did not go to press last night as has been our custom but goes to press this morning, We give the very latest figures for State officers and the race for Congress in the third district. The figures are very close in several of the races. Latimer and Evans will run over for the senate. In the race for governor Heyward has a good lead and the second place is very closely contested by Ansel and Talbert. The State puts Talbert in the i second race, while the News and Cou rier puts Ansel ahead of Talbert. It is so close that it will take the official count to determine. It seems that Martin has defeated McMahan for State Superintendent of Education. This is a surprise as the figures yesterday gave MaMahan a good lead but the later figures give Martin the lead. The other offices may be seen from the figures we publish. In the race for State Senator from Charleston Von Kolnitz received 2,062 votes, McMaster 596 and (race 1,696, which makes a second race necessary. It will be seen Von Kolnitz came vei y near nomination over : both of his competi tors. Von Kolnitz, it will be remem bered, took the stump in the president ial election in some of the doubtful States in behalf of McKinley and Sena tor Tillman stated in an interview some time ago that he ought not to be per mitted to enter the Democratic pri mary.

(anghman:and Evans to Run Over for Railrand Commisaionor. The returns from the State election have been received by the daily papers, and as given below are said to be offi cial, with the exception of only a few boxes in one or two counties that have not been reported, but will scarcely change the result in any instance: The maximum vote was polled for governor 94,802, while that for senator was 93,772, being third in size. Lati mer leads out the senatorial race by a good fig are, his vote being 22,938, and John Gaiy Evans comes second with 17,634, Elliott, Hemphill, John'stone and Henderson following in the order given. Elliott's advance to third place was one of the surprises of last night. For goveinor Capt. Hepvward has more than doubled the vote of his near est competitor, Talbert, who it appears is in the second race with 18005 votes against Ansel's 17,652. 'Iijllman is in four-th place with 16,171 votes and Timmerman brinigs up the rer w'th 6,432 votes. Col. Sloan leads out the race for lieutenant governor by nearly 6000 votes and will make the second race with Gary. Gantt and Wilson will run over for secreta1y of State, the latter leading out by nearly 3,000 votes. Gunter has been nominated for at torney general by over 8,000 votes over Stevenson, and Superintendent of Ed ucation McMahan is beaten by Martin by 2,000 votes. Frost led the race for adjutant gen eral by a handsome figure and will make the second race with Boyd. Jones and Walker will make the second race for comptroller general, the latter leading by nearly 4,000 votes. For railroad commissioner, Evans, who is in first place, is closely pushed by Caughman, with whom he will run the second heat. THE SUMMARY. The summaries are as follows: FOR SENATE.
