Mr. Dunn did not invert a time in the introduction, but his words the ground exactly. Tin- applause was loud when Mr. Dunn referred to the governor as the next S. tor from North Carolina. Louder and longer the applause when the governor himself stood up and com- his speech. and began governor have come to make a political and after the words political speech had been uttered he had Jumped in to fulfill the promise,. A political and a very strong one. It cannot be said that Governor speech at Greenville court house was a repetition of speech at Raleigh, or the one delivered at Greensboro. Inasmuch as the governor had to re- fer to record and printed matter which he used in the two other speeches alluded lo, his speech today may bear a resemblance to the others, yet It was no repetition. Beginning with the strong fight Democrats had made for the party and following closely upon the try wide victories won by some of the leaders Gov. gradually work- ed to the real issue of his talk. This is no time to put a harrier to the Democratic successes so won in the last few years.

Were Mr. Sim- records In accordance with principles of the democrats, would such us the late Gov.

COLUMBUS. May the face of the early returns In Ohio's first presidential preference primary today. Col. Theodore Roosevelt led the Republican ticket by to over Taft and Governor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, led Governor Harmon, of Ohio, on the Democratic ticket by about the same percentage. These returns, however, were given on a basis of complete figures from little more than precincts out of a total of precincts in the state.

This was more than offset by the vote given Colonel Roosevelt in Cleveland and other cities. The Roosevelt lead In the north end of the state, it seemed, would give the former president an advantage which Mr. Taft could not overcome by his vote in the south end of the state including Cincinnati, his home and the rural districts. Senator received a vote than politicians had predicted for him, getting a fraction of the vote cast In the northern end of the state including Cleveland. Governor Wilson, like Colonel was given his biggest vote in the city of Cleveland and the surround- counties. Governor Harmon poll- ed a heavy vote Columbus, the capital and also in his home city, Harmon's campaign managers, de- spite the early figures, declared that their candidate had carried the state through the heavy vote they expect- ed had been given him In the country districts. Governor Wilson's main strength they said, had been in Cleve- land, where Mayor Newton I. Par- had waged a strong fight against Harmon. Mayor Baker, however, in a statement Issued by him at Cleve- land insisted that Governor Wilson had carried Ohio by a vote of to Both Champ Clark and Mr. Bryan, although their names were not on the preference ballot and they were not represented by delegates were given a scattering vote throughout the state, which, when final returns have been received, may effect the outcome of the race.
