The Democratic party of st. Paul GER
tainly has reason to feel proud of the
quiet and orderly manner in which the
primary elections passed off last even
ing. Men, prominent in their respective
localities, otficiatsd as judges and in
spectors, and to-day there is no man in
the city of ST. Paul who can or will say
that he did not have the opportunity 10
cast his vote at the primaries with the
full consciousness that it would be
counted. When men of the standing of
Thomas Grace, David Fitzgerald, A. G.
Woodruff, p. III. Sims, ii. ii. fuller,
Albert Friend, Charles Ii. Manship,
and host of others equally well known,
act as presidents and inspectors Of the
primary elections of party, there can
be no room for complaint on any score.
Fair play was the rule, and the Demo-
cratic party of st. Paul is this morning
stronger for having passed through this
sometimes disrupting ordeal.
Zoo much cannot be said in praise of
the excellent ward nominations for
aldermen. The ticket was splendidly
begun last evening; twill be completed
OH the same lines at this mornings con-
VelltlOI. L UC ldiSt NOlC IUllttl III tnC
different wards demonstrated the inter
est of the voters in the coming struggle,
and their determination not to allow
either the primaries or the election to
go by default. The Democrats of st.
Paul are alive to the Importance of the
coming election, and they are not slow
to manifest it, as was proved pretty
conclusively last evening.
The primaries themselves were gen.
orally without incident. In but one
ward, the Fourth, was there more than
one ticket in the field, so that absolutely
there was not a single contest. The
vote was surprisingly large under the
circumstances. and augurs great inter-
est in democratic success. With the
exception of those precincts in which
the new portable voting houses were
stationed, it was found impossible to
fully carry out the Australian idea, es-
pecially as where there was but one
ticket the system was useless. Where
the system was tried, in the Third ward
particularly, the result was eminently
satisfactory. The detailed account of
the primary election by wards is as fol-
lows:
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1890-04-01
First Ward.

In the two precincts there was moth
ing that could be called opposition to
the one ticket in the field, for A. ..
Oleson for alderman, who had sure
thing on the nomination, his ticket re-
ceiving 1875 votes, with only five seat
tering scratches in favor of j. +. Peter
man. The delegates are:
d. Aberle. NJ. Mullane, a. r. Starkey,
James Forrestal. John Norman, Hugh Camp
bell. j. G. Nordstrom, E. A. Hudson.
Very little could be discovered last
evening as to the sentiments of the
one is for Smith as matter of course,
and as far as can be learned, favor
Roche for comptroller and Refs for
treasurer. The delegates will hold
caucus prior to the convention.
