While il Is true that the majority OF
the 81 delegates to the State Convention
have been elected on Blaine tickets, and
unquestionably true that In the county
men whose hrst choice for nominee for
President IL Blaine are largely In the
majority, the delegation OF Storey
county has q large element free TO exer.
else its best judgment, snd to act after
taking Q good square look at things all
around. II cannot DO denied that there
are also some very strong men among
the delegates who prefer Grant to oil
others.
The city primaries held In Virginia
Yesterday were more a~ssiduously worked
than the State primaries. Candidates
for city honors and offices were numer.
Gus and fought In places BY trios, by
couples, and singly, to set their friends
into the convention. The strongest
fights were made in the First n Third
Wards, which virtually control the city
nominations. since they elect . majority
Of the delegates to the convention.
The delegates chosen yesterday are %
follows:
First ward-Henry Morrison. NJ. q.
Mcmillan, Frank Morrill,, ]. E. Coulter,
Frank Leighton. Fred F. Doe.
Second ward-Ernest Burke, A. Y.
Long, Josiah Lean. Heafy Huber, Isaac
Isaacs, James II. Kemp.
Third ward-Fred Dickman. Dan
Lyons, 8. Boeh, John 8. wsrrin. An.
thony Fox. W. w. Scogin, Chas. d.
Galusha, II. N. Monk.
Fourth ward-Phillip Reese. William
Richards, Fred. Schroeder and William
Pratt. -,
The color Of the Convention to which
these parties have been elected 10 not
very doubtful a. regards Chief OF Police.
O'Brieu has the First and Third Wards
solid, and all but Isaacs and Kemp oil
the Second Ward delegation. There
was no opposition TO those chosen In
the Fourth Ward, hence there 10 no par
ticulsr personal significance in their
selection further than that they were put
up by Riehm. who 10 . candidate also
for Chief Of Police.
