Anti-Aiiep Victory in Tacoma.

TACOMA, July 25.-TSpecial. The Re-
publican county primaries resulted in the
election of an apparent anti-Senator Alien
delegation, favoring w. H. Doolittle for
congress. Z. C. Sullivan, who has been
credited with conducting Aliens political
interests, was beaten in his ward by A. l..
Titlow, anti-Allen, the vote being 81 TO 55.
One voter cast two votes for Sullivan, and
the counting of this ballot was contested.
The result of the primaries today is
simply the continuation of the anti
Allen fight outlined four months ago in
the PosT-ISTELLIGEScER and. which, as
stated then, is expected To reach the climax
AT the county convention in September,
when the plan is to prevent all Allen legis-
lative nominations. Sheriff Price at the

Clallam County Politics Lively.

PoRr ANGELES. July o5.-[Special. THE
Republicans held their primaries Saturday
evening. The contest was principally as
TO the judgeship. The contestants for this
office were the present incumbent, Judge
McClinton, and George c. Hatch. The
city went strong for Hatch, but the returns
from the county are claimed for McCiin-
ton. The present indications are that the
delegates to the convention will be about
evenly divided between McClinton and
Hatch.
Donald Mcinnes, chairman of the DEM
ocratic county central committee, resigned
his position today, as he was badly downed
by the kid element of the party in the
meeting of the central committee last
Saturday. McInnes says he is out of poll
tics. II. b. Crockett, one of his henchmen
and candidate for the nomination for
sheriff, has also withdrawn from the race.

political bomb exploded in the camp of
James Hamilton Lewis followers tonight.
Charles A. Dyer, chairman of the county
Democratic central committee and leader
OF the anti-Lewis faction. resigned from
the committee. His action was wholly
unexpected. Lewis supporters have been
laboring under the impression that the
stalwarts would submit to the selection of
a Lewis delegation to the state conven-
ton rather than precipitate factional
fight.
The anti-Lewis Democrats, consisting of
older and leading warehouses; of the party,
are strongly arrayed against the indorse-
ment of the Lewis delegation from Jeffer-
son county. This is the commencement
of bitter factional contest. Dyer's sue
