THE DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY YES
TERDAY.

| The issue yesterday was, as in other coun-
ties, Bradley and ant-Bradley. The anti
Bradley faction trained under the banners of
ex-senator L. r. Fox of Gold Hill. The
Bradlerian hosts were marshalled by General
Garrard and seconded by Colonies Cavanaugh,
Davies. Rinckel and other and no less ardent
line and staff officers. The Bradley ticket
was headed "People Against Rings, under
which legend was rather denoralzed fowl
mixed somewhat awkwardly with some sort Of
flag or oriflamb. The names upon this ticket
are as follows:
Delegates to the Democratic State Con
vention: T. w. w. Davies, Matt. Rincke,
J. L. Bright, Dr. J. w. Fox, Alex Leport,
Thos L. Smith.
Delegates to the Ormsby County Demo

James Duffy, W. r. Musgrove, Chas. Mile
dorfer, O.. A. F. Gilbert, Thos. Roche, 7. c.
Pinckney, Lloyd Hill, NJ. B. Dow.
The Fox ticket was headed with the inspir-
ing words, "True Democratic Ticket" Chief
among the champions of this ticket were
Brigadier General Winston and Colonel
Fayette King. The names upon this truly
Democratic ticket are:
Delegates to the State Convention Geo
Cowing, W. R. Musgrove, Jacob Klein, Jas
A. st. Clair, James Baxter, James Hunt.
Delegates to County Convention: John
Merle, Honere hobart, J. CaIbert, J. L, |

The voting was conducted in very spirited |
manner but without any serons outbreaks Of
bad temper. The total number of votes
polled was 2i3 The Bradley ticket received
1877 and the True Democratic Ticket" 76
This gives Broadhorns majority cf 81. Who
and what is the special bone of contention in

NOTES AND NOTES.

About this time the travel-stained delegate
covered with the dust of puNerized roads,
makes his appearance within the radius OF
political Capitalization. Thus it is that we OF
the Capitol are brought face to face with many
men i'll whose hands have been entrusted the
destinles and determinations of the RepuSh-
can Party Mr.. Frank Kenyon, of the Au-
rora Herald, came i'll from that city yesterday.
He is of the Esmeralda delegation to the
State Convention. Senator King, Of Lyon,
also arrived here yesterday. He will take his
winding way toward Eureka tonight, Indeed
there will be quite al exodus of the delegated
majesty of Western Nevada Republicanism
OH board to-night's outgoing train These
conventional times bring grist to the rail-
roads, the bus drivers, the BARRIERS, the hotel
men, the saloons and the tavern-keepers.
The fiery, uutamed Democracy held small
afternoon tea party here yesterday. 1t seemed
to be tea party for if not that, we cannot
account for tho very tame results. 1t might
az well have been temperance meeting for
the good it did Not good old Democratic
drunk, and only one black eye, and that one
was caused by the awkward self assertion of
an obstreperous and crooked bit of cordwood.
As to the voting, it proceeded with a quietude
which was almost funereal. 1t was very de-
pressing.
Speaking of things funereal, the burying of
a Chiuaman yesterday caused very extraor-
binary turnout. Following the hearse was
procession, marching by two ranks, the men
in the van being decorated with white sashes,
in quite Masonic way. The gentleman to
whom WAS delegated the business Of distrib
uting the customary yellow papers of the
Mongolian burial servlce sat on the box seat
of the hearse barefoot There was no vani-
ty of earthly adornment about him. Also
be it said, he attended strictly to business.
The procession was quite respectable IN point
of numbers. Then followed Benton's bus
full of mourners Among these were the
musicians beating dirge on gong. 1t was
very mournful In the rear was a wagon full
of Cinnamon and futferal baked meats. 1t is
evident that the Chinese Qike whittier mortals)
" must go"
Bosko of the One Price Clothing Store has
betaken himself to San Francisco there to
replenish his stock and store of goods, wares
and merchandise, and purchase for and in
behalf of the MORNING APPEALS editorial
head new plug hat. May he return with
the bloom of health upon his cheek and the
flush of victory upon his brow.
The California State Fair commences to-
morrow. Many of our people will go. 1t
looks IS if it were barely possible that it
might breed rain.

THE PRIMARY IN STOREY COUNTY
YESTERDAY

Speaking of the primary election held yes
terday in Storey County pursuant to call of
A mass meeting held at the Miners Union
Hall on Friday night, the Chronicle of last
evening saws "As there was but one ticket
in the field, there was but little excitement
around the polling places to-day. Voters de-
posted their ballots quietly and went away,
while members of the opposite faction con-
tented themselves with standing across
the street, looking on and making slight
ing and derogatory remarks upon the
proceedings The general opinion ex-
pressed by them was, that the seceders,
by running only one ticket and thus electing
their own men without opposition, had been
guilty of an act of usurpation, similar to that
which they charged upon the Republican
County Central Committee, but that it made
no difference anyhow, for these delegates
would be refused admission to the State Con
vention, rs they would go there without Gre
denlials properly certihedby the County Com
mittee, the only recognized authority. An
extraordinary effort was made to drum up
voters, A full brass band was driven through
the streets and also played in front of the
polls, but at half past o'clock this afternoon
ONLY 157 votes had been cast at the Second
Ward polls and l54 votes at the Third Ward.
p. S.-We learn from several parties who
came down on the train last night that there
were about l 900 votes cast. This makes the
rnatter look sOrnewhat serious.

A YOUNG GIRL COMMITS SUICIDE

The Gold Hill NelcS of last evening has the
following account of the suicide of young
girl: At $50 yesterday afternoon a messenger
from American Flat came post haste to Gold
Hill stating that Diana Jones, daughter of
Robert Jones of the Pioneer Dairy, aged IA,
was in commissions, and it was feared that she
had poisoned herself. DR.. Magee started at
once to the rescue, but arrived too late.
When he got there she was dead The story
is simple and by no means an uncommon one
Diana had formed an attachment for the
driver of her fathers milk wagon. The love
was an honest one, and sprang gushingy
from young, full heart Yesterday morning
her father took her to do for it, and chided
her rather harshly. 1t was more than she
could bear. There was in the house some
strychnine, which had been purchased to
poison coyotes. She took a dose about
o'clock, and at o'clock was dead. The de-
ceased was a beautiful girl, beloved by all.
No maiden of that section had brighter
future before her or numbered a larger host of
friends. She was unusually bright and at
tractive, and her early death is sincerely
mourned. Coroner Hodges will inquest the
case this evening

THE WORKlNGMENs MEETING.

There was some movement toward holding
Workingmen's Meeting here last night; but
the wind and weather, and the sudden sick
ness of one of the prime movers, initiated
against it. The plan was to hold it on Cap
itol Square, the speakers speaking from the
steps of the State House. Mr.. Robert Leep-
er, who has been taking a leading part in this
Workingmen's movement in Washoe County,
informed us last evening that the wind was
too strong to make an outdoor meeting a
success that Mr.. Hoole, one of the chief
movers of the cause, was SICK and that alto
gether the inducement to hold a meeting was
not of an encouraging character. The fact
is, there had been but very slight and feebly
circulated notification. The movement will
no doubt be more effectually planned at an
other time. We learn from Mr.. Leeper that
Mr.. Hoole is threatened with typhoid fever
The speakers who were to have addressed the
meeting last night are Messrs. Robert Leeper
and T. E. Hawkins.

WHAT SHALL WE Do WITH OUR GIRLS p
This serious question still remains unsolved.
The moral philosophers who were to have
elucidated the matter last night-that is to
say, the three Bobs-did not appear unto US.
This, however, is not their fault. The f2ult
lies in various directions. In the first place
there was the inadequate notice; in the next
place the town was agog with the inwardness
and the outwardness of Democratic pri-
mary; and if the truth must be confessed,
our citizens did not take hold of the matter
as zealously as we hoped to see them do. We
hope, when better opportunity offers itself,
to see these gifted teachers what time they
lift up their voice to tell us as becomes their
character of triplets, of what we must do with
our girls.

warm applause of the audience. They also
reflected great praise upon their skillful leader
and teacher, Mr. Spargo. The young ladies
were tastefully arrayed in handsome uni-
form that pleasing to the eye. The cor
net duo by Miss Marston and Mr.. Spargo was
a gem that was fully appreciated, and called
forth hearty and persistent encore, which,
however was declined. We trust that the
band, having been so well received by our
people, will come often and give us pleasant
evenings entertainment
