Democratic Ward Primaries.

shfp-The O'Keefe and GiIhuIy Grand
 Tournament.
 The Democratic ward primaries were held last evening,-always an occasion of great interest in the Democratic camp. There were fifteen of them, at each of which crowd assembled and delegates were elected to the several nominating conventions to be held, viz, representative, town, board of re- lief and ward nominating conventions. The State election next Tuesday, when New Haven elects two Representatives to the Legislature, but no Senator, this being the
 off Senatorial year, the present incumbent,
 Hon. Wm. J. Mills, holding over, having another year to serve. On next Tuesday also occurs the vote on the water question.
 This is all our citizens will be called upon to
 vote upon next Tuesday. In December oc-
 CUTS the election for town and city fathers,
 and the primaries last night had reference to that election, as we'll as to the one in Decem
 Der, which is by far the more interesting to the local politicians. Ex-Mayor Lewis and
 Col. A. Heaton Robertson, the latter mem
 Der of the House two years ago and son of
 Mayor Robertson, loomed up in the prima
 ries last night as the probable candidates for
 the Legislature, and Democrats are confident they will have 8 walk over. The battle
 waxed hot this year, as last, over the ques- tion who shall be town registrar, the contest lying between the present town or general registrar of voters William O'Keefe, and Daniel GiIhuly, who was Mir. Keefe's oppo-
 nent last year, developing considerable
 strength and enthusiastic cheering in some of the battle wards.
 The names of s. Harrison Wagner and
 Joseph D. Plunkett entered prominently into | the struggle in some wards. Shuster for | Town Clerk led in many wards. The Sew | enth ward was, as usual, notable battle field.
