ly half a century, went to the polls

admitted to statshood at the same'

rnna minuted the direct nrimarv sys

first time, uwing to me .large ex

new state and tnc remote locations

may not be definitely known until
late today.
k t.nn. iA(n nnnf Ail in nlm n f
all the chief cities of tho new state
gives, evidence of the keen interest !
effort at self-government. The citi
zens of Anzona have always elected
their own county officers and their
loiriolntnTs but the president named
the governor and other executive offi
cials, including the judiciary, ana
congress has always had veto power
over the territorial legislative enact

cluding representative in congress and
a legislature that win cnoose two
TTnitrxl States senntors. The election
of the United States senators wijl be
governed by the advisory vote at the
general election.
Due to the fact that there were
only a few contests for nominations
for county offices on either the re
publican "or democratic tickets yes
terday's primary did not call out the
full strength of the electorate in this
city. The tqtal vote cast in Preseott
was 743, the republicans having 277

t. As usm!TTi
on election days the
cfty presented a lively scene from tho
time the polls opened at S o'clock
until 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
Hacks with streaming banners bear
ing the names of candidates sped to
ami tm nil il.iv. cnrrvinir partisans
to the two polling places. The Cartez
street headquarters was tue most pop
ular, 477 votes being cast there
against 267 in the Palace hotel. Quiet
prevailed throughout the day and the
presence of peace officers was -entirely
unnecessary.
Inner republican and democratic
circles were stirred in the early after

The message received by J. P. Dillon,
chairman of the democratic territorial
central committee, was signed by Lon
D. Hall, and the one received by E.H.
Meek of tho republican county com
mittee ur.is siimpil hv Joseph E. Cook.
Hall and Cook were in charge of af
fairs for their respective parties at
the Big Bug metropolis. A hurried
consultation was held by Dillon and
Meek to which a couple of lawyers
and a member of the constitutional
convention were called into confer
ence and duplicate answers were
wired to Bosses Cook and Hall at

tures of subdivision 9 of section 20 of
the primary act which provides that

"I'm gathering them in slowly,"
was the suave reply.
self or any candidate at any pri
mary or other election is guilty of
the crime of bribery, which is pun
ishable by a fine of not less than
$100 or more than $500, and by im
prisonment in the county jail of not
less than three months nor more than
one year. Up to the time of the close
of the count this morning Dillon and
Meek had not heard from their Mayer
committeemen concerning any more
funds.
Owing to the confusion attendant
upon counting the ballots under the
new primary law but 20 of the GO
precincts were accounted for at mid
night. Three of the original precincts
were abandoned so that there are 3S
precincts to be heard from. The city
of Preseott cast a vote of about 725
and at midnight not over one-half of
the ballots had been counted and
the clerks, judges and assistants will
in all probability be counting until
the children get ready for school
today.
The telephone line to Dewey was
not in working order and that pre
cinct will send its returns by mail.
Congress, Congress Junction, Octave,
Hillside, Pceples Valley and Mountain
Springs are on the line of the Ari
zona State Telephone company and
have not been in communication with
this city for over two weeks. Middle,
Lower and Camp Verde will be heard
from todav. Williamson Valley, Wal
nut Grove. Walnut Creek, Tiptop,
White Cloud, Savers. Rosalie and
Bumble Bee are alr"far from teie-
craphic or telephonic communcation
and the returns will come overland,
just when they will reach this city
is a matter of conjecture.
The telephone operator succeeded
in raising Hot Springs but that quiet
village was not particularly excited
over things political and no one could
be found who had any idea of how
the election had gone. When Groom
Creek was finally made to answer tlie
repeated calls the person who answer
ed the phone reported that everyone
had gone to bed but that the matter
of the election would be looked into
today. Goddard is some distance
from" means of rapid communication
and Cherry and Cedar Glade have no
telephones. '
Senator teported that a man had
started for Preseott on horseback and
that the returns might be expected
to reach this city some time this
morning. Miller Valley is equipped
with telephones but for some reason
refused to answer repeated calls.

jetting the lead of two runs in the

was seldom, if ever, heard on the
local grounds. Xearly 25,000 people
witnessed the game.
Mathewson was nearly crushed un
der the fusilade of hits in the seventh
and gave wav to Wiltse. Ten hits
for a total of sixteen bases were
made off Matty in six full innings.
Chief Bender was never in trouble
after the first inning, when he was a
little unsteady. He struck out four
Jarsey Lily has no means of com
munication. Owing to the absence of the Pres
eott returns it is almost impossible
to state just how the election has
gone but it is a known fact that the
republican party had little interest
in the results and polled a small
vote.
The direct primary has demonstrat
ed one thing and that is that the
actual vote of the territory may be
in doubt for at least two or three
days.
In Preseott precinct north, the re
publican ballots were first counted
while the election officers were still
counting when the Journal-Miner
went to press. At that hour the re
turns were as shown below. It is
too early to forecast the result on
the county offices but it is certain
that Hawkins has won the nomination
for the superior judge over Loy and
Talbot. Frank Smith likewise was
successful over D. E. Parks on the
republican ticket. Heap and Harring
ton are sure winners for a place on
the republican ticket as supervisors
which the others are running very
close. The totals at 3 a. m. are as
follows:

men and gave two walks.
Barry was the star batter today.
In four times up he ripped off a
single and two doubles. In three
times up Baker got two doubles.
It was the fourth inning that saw
the fireworks. Collins. Baker and
Murphy doubled and all scored. In
the fifth inning Collins, by great
running, scored from first on Baker's
double. This was all the locals got
but the best the Giants could do was
two. Dcvorc. Doyle and Fletcher
showed best for Xew York.
As well as for fierce batting the
game was brilliant for fielding also.
Both Fletcher and Baker were too
eager for a double play and fumbled
grounder.-. Otherwise the pitchers
were backed in excellent shape. Xew
York's scores came as a result of
Devore's single, Doyle s triple and
Snodgrass' sacrifice, needing two.
After that they never passed second.
The sixth game will be played in
Xew York tomorrow.

Visits Tucson Third Time
In Vain Effort To
Secure Votes
TUCSOX, Ariz., Oct. 24. With tho
count far from complete in Tucson
and the county precincts the returns
at 11 o'clock indicate that Ives and
Mark Smith are nominated for sen-j
ators with Ives leading Smith. Hunt
is also in the lead for governor with
Weedin a close second. Cobb is still
leading for congress although Winsor
may overcome the lead here.
George U. Young returned here for
his third visit last night and spent
today in the Mexican quarter endeav
oring to rally the voters to his can
didacy, advertising in the democratic
papers and pledging to those whose
vote he solicited that Judge Wells
will be defeated if nominated. Wells
will get the nomination in this coun
ty in spite of the fact that he did
not come here throughout the cam
paign and has not been here in a
long time. It will be daylight before
the returns are completed.

It is believed Yonng will carry

Indications here from points all

that Ashurst and Ives will be made

prognostication is Ives and Mark
Smith.
Hayden for representative in con

nine or ten hundred majority and
Winsor and Cobb arc both running

that Judge Wells will defeat Young
