Primary elections sweep four states in peaceful mood
Primary elections were held in four states today ending campaigns marked by sharp clashes and threats of investigations. Ohio and Nebraska featured the fiercest contests with Idaho and Arkansas closer races. In Ohio the Democratic Senatorial nomination saw a three-way race among Gov. George White former Gov. Vic Donahey and Rep. Charles West amid party factions. Senator Robert J. Bulkley accused White of buying support with highway jobs and threatened a senatorial probe if White won. Republican contenders also crowded the slate for the Senate and governorship. Nebraska’s spotlight was Governor Charles W. Bryan challenging Arthur F. Mullen for party control as Bryan sought the Senate nomination amid charges of campaign funding, with Norris probes anticipated by Republicans. Idaho drew attention to Gov. C. Ben Ross’s bid for a third term as he faced Frank Martin and Asher B. Wilson. In other states nine Democratic gubernatorial hopefuls and five Republicans vied for governor, with five Republicans seeking the Senate nomination.
