Democratic Primaries.

All Sorts of specuIatioR-The New Rules l acknowledgement Among the Various l COnteGtantSs
 The Democratic primaries in anticipation | of the city and town elections were held in | the various wards of the city and town last evening. There was no little excitement l among the contesting parties in the various | wards and the threat that the malcontents | would show their power at the polls was. ! heard on all sides. AS rule, however, the 1 voting passed of quietly and the new rules I were strictly enforced. There is SO much difference of opinion in regard to the charac- ter of the delegates that it is hard to tell who the successful candidates will be. So far as Town Clerk is concerned, it would seem to be about equally divided between Hugo and Shuster in the lower wards with a chance that Dibble may have 8 friend here and there who will stand by him to the last. In the other wards Dibble seems to have many friends with Hugo good second choice and Sinister for third and Graves looming up in the dis tance There would seem from the canvass to be no doubt about James Reynolds, the present incum bent, receiving the nomination for Town Agent and Selectman, but who the other nominees will be it is hard to deter mine. Dr. Doherty thinks he has the inside track for registrar of births, deaths and mar risges, but even he may come up missing The facts are, that as a rule the Democrats are all at sea in regard to tn examinations and the Republicans have only to watch and wait"
