The. Detaocratic, - contest - de- .

are three candidates and the d
method'of distributing the second c
choice votes in the event no candi- j,
date received - a majority in any <{j
county; In several counties fail- c
ure to announce-the second choice g
votes made it difficult' to deter- g
mine the winner. Bruce, how- .
ever, carried three of the four city h
districts with seven delegates in t
each district and apparently p,oll: c
ed enough outside votes to nave f
the required majority. His op- p
ponentB were William I. Norris
and Da^id Lewis. . . * ' v
The vote on both sides was c
light, about 60,000 Republicans B
going to'the polls,jof whom 36,- q
000 voted for France and 82,000
Democrats. x ..
The Republicans ' only had the
senatorial nomination to draw
them but the Democrats had five congressional
fights. The chief c
interest in the congressional fights t
centered in the first districts In r
nuibu uuuKroDttmaQ i. Aian uoias- 1
borough, a dry, won easily over
Alexander M. Jackson, .listed ns fc
wet, and Ablet W. Sisk, who fav- i
ored government control of , the a
liquor business. Other Indicated c
winners were M. P. Tydings, e
Antony Dimarco, Clarence M. 6
Roberts and Frank Mish.
Goldsborough's victory means
that all six- members o^ the pres- '

(By the Associated Press)?The 1
fortunes of United States Senator '

Michigan's political arena today.
The senator was seeking re-nomInatlon
In.a primary'that will be r
recorded as one' of the hardest t
fought DOlitlcal hftttles in ihe -
state's history. r
With Senator Townsend oppos- r
ed by three Republicans who cen- p
tered their campaign fire on his n
support ot Senator Truman H. a
Newberry, the primary was re- b
garded by a great number of rot- t
ers as a verdict to be rendered by
the electorate on the action of the _
Senate in seating the junior member
from Michigan.
Congressman Patrick H. Kelly,
of [Lansing, State Senator: H. F.
Baker, C. H. Wedock, of' Grand

In the , Democratic, primary
there was no contest for the senatorial
