Result of Yesterdays Democratic Pri-
mary Election in this City.
Yesterday was the date announced for
the holding of Democratic primary cleo
tons throughout the county in the interest
Of the rank and file of the party, whose
rights had been ignored by the majority of
the Central Committee in appointing dele
gates to the County and State Conventions.
The call was made but few days before,
and it is not known as yet whether or not
the electors outside the city had sufficient
time to enable them to generally prepare
for the event. In this city, however, polls
were opened in all the voting precincts and
full delegations elected. Considering the
fact that there were no rival tickets in the
field, and no contest over delegates, a very
fair number of votes were polled in some of
the precincts, in others the vote being light.
The only change made from the list select
ed at the caucuses on the preceding even
ing was the substitution of VIM. Rel for
Thomas Dolan in the Fourth Precinct of
the Second Supervisor District. Following
are the names of the city delegates chosen

To-DAY's CONVENTION.
The Convention will assemble at 1 clock
this afternoon, in Turner Hall. Several
prominent Democrats are talked of in con-
nection with the Craftsmanship, but DR..
Caples seems 10 be the preference of ma
jority of the city delegates.
Considerable interest has centered in this
movement, as it remains an open question
at this time as to which wing of the party
twill receive recognition by the State Con-
vention. II is claimed by the leaders oil
the present movement that those mem
bers of the County Committee who refused
10 be led by the bosses lin the interest OF
one or two persons), and who recognize the
right and prerogative of the people TO select
their delegates to political Conventions on
all occasions, have-or should have-the
support of the rank and file of the party
In fact it seems to be purely contest be
tween n few bosses who want to " hog
everything in sight and the mass of the
voters. The latter are Justly jealous o.
their right to be heard in all such matters
as the selection of public officers, for wher
once they surrender it into the hands of thu
bosses their own dignity and individualisn
as citizens become swamped.
