Cincinnati and the English Boom


 New Haven DemOcracy-The Prima- ries and the Election of Delegates
 to the State COnventiOn-EngIish and
 EatOn-Side Issues.
 Is it English or Eaton was question quiet ly agitated last evening at the Democratic ward primaries. Said primaries were held to elect delegates to the coming Democratic State convention (to be held at Hartford April 26), which chooses delegates to represent Oonnec- ticut at the Democratic National convention on the 22d of June. Everything was working harmoniously in this city for securing con- vention solid for ex-Governor English until Q few days ago, when an Eaton element dis played itself, anxious to create boom for Senator Eaton. Various causes are assigned for this diversion. There has been feeling around. The Jetfersonian Club, or s'ten dol lar Democrats" as they are termed, are &C., cused of trying to control things too much and dictating to the masses of the party. Again there was a little side show in which certain Democrats figured, their efforts all be- ing grist to the mill to grind out enthusiasm for Eaton. The ultimate object of these wire-pullers, who are alleged to be adopts in the art of manipulating delegations, was indi- vidual NRwer and political influence, if not 8 substantial reward for active party services in the past. Then there was another undercur- rent. This came from candidates for office, candidates for the job of taking the census New Haven candidates said to be as thick as blackberries in their season, and their advo- oacy of Eaton arose from the supposition that the Senator would have potent voice as to the filling of those offices. The result, umphant. The names of quite number of leading and prominent Democrats will be found among the delegates elected. For the English delegates to the State convention we have heard prominently mentioned the names of ex-Mayor L. W. Sperry, Hon. James Gallagher. Daniel l.. Carpenter and Jonathan IngersolI, while the Eaton wing favored such names as Judge Levi B. Bradley, Fire Commissioner James T. Mullen. Corporation Counsel Stoddard, Herrick P. Frost, Town Agent James Reynolds and ex-Mayor Shelton. The following are the delegates elected at the primaries last night:
