The WING Primary Meetings.

FouRTH WARD-At meeting Of the Commit
sae 70 nominate Delegate at Oakleya Franklin
Hall corner of Dover and Pearl ats last night
John Niles in the Chrir, and VIM. q. Adams, seo
rotary JAMES McALLIsTER was appointed to rep
sent the Ward at the Wing State Convention
VIM. q. SPARKS substitute. The direct popular
vote would have proven much more satisfactory 70
the Wings OF the w ard, and we regret that the
suggestion for this democratic method OF election
was rot adopted here and thus leave no room for
disputipg the regularity and fairness of che late
primary meeting, and the subsequent action OF the
Nominating Committee. The elections IN the
WITH and With w ards ought to impress upon the
Whies Of those Districts thu necessity OF adopting
the vote by ballot at their primary meetings and
the mccarthy of adopting uniform hour shrough
out the city for the poiog Of votes, and shua pre-
vent the intrusion Of non resident ro"dies hlfeo
to thwalt the wishes Of the people. We are re-.
ioiced to see the movement making in all quarters
for maiptsnipg she purity OF elections. Let me ut
most Vigilance be ezerted in future and the legal
voters ba protected in their rights
MAlSE.-The Augusta Age has returns from ell
tbs State but II towns and IS plantations, which
together gave lsst year Hubbard l,1o6, Crosby SAP
aud Talbot 1917 votes. Those heard from compare
with last year az iolows;
1850. GOVERNOR 1s49,
T. 10 ssss8 yjS5 59 9a 36 Pp 7884
Hubbard over all. l, 274 D. last year. 942
Increase since 49-Whig 4o27i Opp. 3,489;
Free Soil loas $40.
Congress--We have lost all but Goodenow and
Waphburn. Reed lin Linoeln) is beaten about 20
or 80 votes; Pitt Fessenden SO; Pike by so or so
N. Dare Appleton ia beaten 500 in York and Ok
ford Smart has 700 plurality in Waldo and Som
erset.
Seuate--The Age he's but sic Wing Senator'S
cbogen to ten Opposition leaving fifteen vacancies.
Lincon would have chose and Somerset more
Wings had there not been Especial Free Soil tick
ct, which hes barely defeated them. The vacan-
cies will be filed by the Legislature in Joint Ballot
all Opposition, Of course.
House-so far, 90 Opposition So Wing and
Free soil-net gain four to the Opposition. We
believe the State is all beard from.
Constitutional Amendmeat.-The People have
probably allowed the Legialature 10 go back to
Winter Sessions. The vote Of AS towns stands
For it, 1886; Against it, 6,625. Majority 1929
which we think cannot be overcome
MIssoURI.-The Jefferson (Mo.) Metropolitan Of
the 10th inst has full Official Returns OF the Con-
greasiona Election throughout the State except
two Counties in the With District where Phelpss
msiority is 60 overwhelming es to diveat the re-
turns Of interest. The following are the aggre
gates:

AS there was no Benton candidate in the lid
District and but one old Member friendly to him
running in the State while three of the present de
legation were running aganat him, this exhibit is
scarcely fair to the Senator. We think majority
| Of the Democracy are on his side.
