appeared OH the ticket. j. A. SanSOme,
who lives in the ward and claims to he |
posted, expressed great surprise at the |
unanimity of the voters. He had been
afraid there would be lively time, as |
some of the prominent ward workers
were opposed to what they term the
''Silk StOcking' element. For some rea-
son, which MIR. SanSome did not exactly
understand. the row had been averted,
and he was glad of it.
At the voting place on Lafayette ave-
nue. eighty five persons were corralled
after much effort, and the vote cast
were for the delegates named at the
head of this article.
At the corner of Case and Burr streets
Aid. Copeland, who was one of the
judges. said there had been 135 votes
cast. One hundred of these, he SAID,
had been cast before O'Clock. but in
the next hour the judges had hard
work to pull in the other thirty-tive.
The delegates voted for were the same
as in the other two precincts, there be-
ing no opposition.
The Second Divided.
The compromise ticket in the Second
ward went through without any opposi-
ton. The Republican leaders feared
that contest might make serious
split in the party, and as each side was
little suspicious of the others
strength, it was not found difficult to
agree upon a compromise ticket. Of
the twelve delegates elected six are for
McGill, while the remaining six favor
an uninstructed delegation to the state
convention. The McGill delegates are
Robert Seeger, Frank II. Dayton,
Ghem's hee Leslie A f9nIGy' farS and GeoTes esn n
Haglund. The uninstructed are F. w. |
Zollman, William F. Ames. j. V. Will |
son, Charles E. Keller, Samuel E. |
Mahan apd Matt j. Leithauser. These |
gentlemen are credited with being Ives
delegates. but at least two of their |
number are supporters OF Knute Nelson. |
No fight, however, was made for Mel |
son as against Ives. it being the wish of |
the uninStructed delegates to enter the |
and to vote for the strongest candidate. |
They will certainly look with favor |
upon the candidacy of Mr.. Nelson.
In the First district, the primary of |
which was held at 7SS East Seventh |
street, Messrs. Zollman and Ames each |
received 156 votes. MIR. Dayton had 157 |
and the remaining delegates received |
15S votes each.
At the primary in the second district, |
corner of Ames and Hazel avenues, |
there were Ill votes cast for each of the !
delegates.
That Rotten Borough.
The contest in the Third was ami |
mated to an unusual degree, and for !
opposition. Col. Samuel LowenStein |
and E. Z. Wade presided at the |
ballot box and when the fray |
was over counted out 157 votes for |
the McGill ticket and 102 for the Ives |
men. On the winning ticket is the |
name of John c. Hanley, who has at
tanned dangerous. prominence i'll Re- |
publican councils in the four months |
that have elapsed since he was refused |
a city job and voted in the Ninth ward |
Democratic primaries. The del egates |
elecled are given above, the defeated,
or Ives ticket, follows:
j. c. Reichardt j. T. Duffey. Louis Miss.
Henry Boyce. Terence Kenny, Robert Kirk
land, Dennis Ryan, John Heinlein, August
Olson, +. Twiss, Jonas Brusell.
Johns Has the Fourth.
There was very little of Il contest in
the Fourth, and the result left every
body happy except j. f. Ingham, who
was defeated by w. F. Bckel With
were Identical. Bickel represented Nc
Gill. but 1t was claimed the ticket was
compromise. G.. Ii. McGill and Mai.
Libby claimed the result as McGill
victory, but Henry Johns said it cut no
figure. Henry was on deck all the time
and had general supervision, remarking
at the close there was but one contest
and he would have that mans proxy by
the time the convention met. The
Bickel ticket received SO votes, to 81 for
the Ingham ticket.
They Worked Nash.
The Fifth ward faithful few met at
the corner of West Seventh and Good
hue streets, and after keeping the polls
open for an hour adjourned to Peter
Eiswirth's saloon for inspiration. There
were two tickets i'm the field, one repre-
senting McGill and the other the Oppo-
strongly. Nelson was not in it. George
Nash led the McGill assault, and led it
to a crushing defeat. Their tickets were
made up on purple strips and were as
thick as leaves in the street, but only ST
got'into the ballot box, to 1S5 for the op-
position. 1t was said Nash was film
TANNED by some one who said he must
substitute white tickets for the illegal
purple ones. Nash rushed after the
white ones and lost much valuable
time. The successful Ives ticket may
be found above.
Hot in the Sixth.
There was a very spirited contest in
the Sixth, and nearly enough carriages
were out for general election. Two
tickets were in the field, the one for
Mctfill headed by Edward Vanish, the
Ives ticket by +. A. Leyde. Two hun
dred and eighty-eight votes were cast.
One Ives and one McGill ballot each
contained too many names, and both
were thrown out. Of straight ballots
cast, Ives received 135 and McGIll 131.
The scratched tickets elected by clear
majorities five McGill and two Ives
delegates. Four Ives and one Nc
Gill man were tied at 142. After
placed in a hat and three of them
drawn, Ives securing two and McGill
one. This leaves the delegation stand
ing six for McGill and four for Ives.
The Ives men promise contest before
the convention, the chief grievance
being the claim that Democrats were
rung in to vote for McGill. The dele
gates and their respective votes are as
follows:
McGill-Edward Vanish, 144; V. j. Hawk
ins, 150 William G. Denny, 14}; George Mar
tin, 144; C.. H. Parmlee, 143; Eugene E. Vii
laume, 142.
Ives-H A. Norman. 146: NJ. j. Bell, 146;
Lloyd Peabody, 141; Edward Bouquet 142.
McGin on the Hill.
The Seventh ward was strongly con-
tested. Gen. Flower, as we'll as several
ardent McGill supporters were active in
the contest. They were incited to
strenuous efforts by the circulation of
the following circular:
