The effect of the primaries and convcn-
tions 50 far held give the following result /:
Wolcott has the Clear Creek delegation sol
id, has about an even show of getting JEFF
terson county, and by n bolt in Summit
county has seven out OF fourteen OF the
delegates, while Campbell claims fourteen
from that county. The matter can only bs
decided by the state convention. Campbcll
has Pitkin county, Meidrum has Larimer,
Eaton has Weld, and Maxwell has Boulder
The foilowiug-ninsed counties have elected
anti-Woleott delegates FL p,.so, Pueblo,
Rio Grslnde, Gilpin, Chaifee, Custer, Gun
nison, Park and san Juan. III wolcott gets
the Arapahoe delegation he viii 20 into the
convention with about seventy or eighty
votes II he does not get Arapahoe he will
be practically out of the race. If Campbell
gets Lake county he will 20 in with about
sixty or seventy votes. As to the strength
Of the other candidates it is not so easy to
determine, as 50 many delegations are anti
Woicott without any Indication Us to who
they may be for.

There are some who object to the peni-
tentiary guards taking any part at the Cah-
ON City primaries All republicans count
upon the penisentiary employees voting the
republican ticket on election day, but some
of them object TO their having any voice
in making the ticket they are expected to
support Is that fair? If they were to be
controlled in their action at the primaries
by their superior officer there would of
course be an objection to that, but is there
any evidence of that fact? In the primary
OF last Saturday the vote was so overwhcIm-
ingly one-sided that the vote of the guards
present cut no figure whatever. If they
were manipulated the whole community
must have hcen manipulated in the same
direction.

In spite offs sharp little contest as the
opening OF the primary last Saturday, and
few bitter remarks by one or two parties,
it was the most harmonious primary 50 fur
held this year in any place Of the size of
Gallon City. There was division as to
choice of delegates, but that division was
not caused by any difference Of sentiment
among our people as to choice fur governor,
eonsressnlen or senator, it was simply upon
matters of minos importance. The election
o.: the defeated candidate for chairman to
the position of secret.try, and the ullsntns-
ous election Of all the delegates, sufficient
y shows that there Was no mattcrof much
moment dividing the caucus. 1t WIS the
best primary ever assembled ut Caiion, and
showed an interest in the election this fall
which IS an augrrs of success.

In our issue to-day We give a full but
corpcct account of the rich strike that has
been made so near oar town. The readers of
the RECORD are aware that we have never
been known TO say that a man had struck it
rich near Canon when we knew it to he a
lie. or felt convinced that the find did ma
amount to anything. Ne FELT certain tlfJs
the day would ecuac. sssasrr or later, when
we could proclaim to thciworld that a ris.t
mine had been discovered near town and
we now gladly herald thcssry4s. Thine has
proven that our plan was ;Swt& one Had
we, week after week, eiaisUls4Nsst each OF
the men who have been isS~srr~tsng in this
ncighborhocd. had made ! rNk Jlisrcvery
no one would believe Us now when we an
nouncc the truth. The owners OF the rich
strike arc men OF means and honor, and
csa have no object in naisrcprcscutiug
their mine. They have no claims to sell,
hut are buying interests in other claims.
The assays and min runs that show such
richncss, wcc made by parties who knew
nothing about the mine and had no inter-
est in ii Ii this new mine discovery con-
tinucs as good as at present. Canon City will
experience a business prosperity never he

The French Lottery.

1t is announced that the French Gov
ernment has authorized another Lot
terry, so pressing has been the demand
for it on the part of the people. The
previous one excited unbounded enthu'
siasm among all classes, and the wide
distribution Of the numerous prizes
gave all ranks a taste of the satisfaction
to be bad in the easily acquired gains
of the Lottery.
Yet neither the French nor any other
European or American scheme com.
pares in liberality with the new one
of the long established Louisiana state
Lottery Company set forth at length in
another column of this paper, to be
drawn on the 11th of July inst, and
monthly thereafter, under the sole di.
rection of Generals Beauregard and
EARLY. 1t will be seen that in this
scheme $75, 900 is given on IS ticket
constituting it the largest offer for that
price ever presented.
That this company will perform all
it promises is now we'll established in
the public mind. The whole Schcme
will be found interesting reading and
bear careful analysis.

Mr.. Money left several admOnitions
to his pastor, requesting him to preach
to the young people that they may be

Tho Penns'y Excursion .

The opening of the summer excursion
season on the steamer, Richard Stock
ton, was the giving of an editorial excur-
sion by the Pennsylvania Company
from Philadelphia by special train con.
sisting of engine No. 399 and three pas.
senae er cars attached, which left Phila
delphia promptly at O'Clock on Fri
day morning. After stopping at Ger
mantown junction and one or Two
other stations, the party was swelled to
the number of one hundred and fifteen
persons, consisting of editors, reporters
and their wives and children, from
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland
and Delaware. The train reached Jer-
sey City few minutes after 9 9o'clock,
when the excursionists embn rked on
board the Richard Stockton, the ele
CANT iron steamer that plies the Hudson
river between Jersey City and West
Point.
AS the steamer steamed away from
the wharf the band struck up a lively
air, thereby rendering the scene one
long to be remembered by those who
participated. The ride up the Hudson
was delightful and the many points of
interest were pointed out by those who
were acquainted with the places, and
details given which were as interesting
as well as Of an instructive character.
A fine collation. was served up at about
l O'Clock to which ample justice was
done. Everything one could possibly
wish for was to be had and it was
served up in style to please the most
fastidious epicure. Plenty of ice water
had been provided to wash down the
viands with and the way those quill
drivers put it away was caution to all
lovers of the "good things" of this
world, After delightful ride up the
Hudson as far as West Point, the
st3amer about one o'clock put about on
the homeward journey, arriving at Jer.
sey City at 8 o'clock.
The train was taken and the excur.
sionists arrived at Philadelphia at 7
o'clock, tired but pleased with the
courtesy of the managers of the Penn
sylvania r. Il. Mr.. De Haven, Capt.
Bloomberg aud Mr.. Boyd did all in
their poS.3r to raaska the time pass
pleasantly. From Wilmington were,
Mr.. Merris Taylor and wife, of the Ga
zette; Mr.. Edward Davis and lady, of
