THE DEmOCRArIC pRImARIEs.

The Democrats in the various wards of city and town held their primaries yesterday, the polls opening at o'clock and closing at 5 o'clock. There were lively times at most of the voting places, particularly so when there were two tickets in the field, the friends of the different aspirants for honors doing their best to get out full vote. In some of the wards the vote was very close and the anxie- ty of the politicians was apparent by the loud talking while the votes were being counted. From all that could be gleaned at the various wards last evening to the number of votes each mayoralty candidate would receive in convention on the first bal lot would be about as follows: Mills 30, Holcomb 23, Andrews 15. The figures may be changed, however, even before the conven tion meets, as delegates to city and town conventions are often very uncertain.
 So far as the town ticket is concerned it is very plain that the town agent, town clerk and other members of the present board will surely be renominated.
