to The BEE. The republican county cen
tral committee met to-day. They set October

time to hold the primaries in the different
precincts. The county convention is called
for October B. The number OF delegates is
| one to every twenty-five votes and fraC-
tional majority thereof, based upon the vote
cast for Presidential Elector Hastings. This
makes sixty-six delegates to the convention,
of which Blair city and township have
twenty-five. 1t looks as If the hardest fight
