1t looks exceedingly Boardmanesoue
after the Republican primaries of last
night. The Union league experts figure
1t out that Boardman leads, Lowell sec
0nd and Blethen last. Here is the sur
| prise. No one counted Lowell as in it
at all. Blethen seems to be the man
outside the Enclosure. But here is the
way it is figured:
| Boardman gets nine delegates in the
| First ward. Lowell takes twenty out of
the Second and the other six are di-
| vIded. Lowell is given eighteen of the
twenty-SiX delegates in the Third and
the other eight go to Boardman. Board
! man has fully forty of the sixty Fourth
ward delegates. The other twenty are
divided. Lowell has forty of the Fifth's
hfty-four. Boardman has majority in
the Sixth, supposed to have been Bleth-
| ems stronghold.
Lowell has three in the Seventh and
the others are for Boardman. The
Eighth is divided betweenn Lowell and
| the other two, many of the delegates be-
ing independent. Boardman has 16 of
the IS i'll the Ninth ward. Boardman
! gets three in the Tenth, the others di-
Vided: The Eleventh and Twelfth are
Boardman. The Thirteenth was not
reported, and Boardman men claim the
nomination on the first ballot and with
| good reason.
The contest for the mayoraity over
Swallowed the running for the other
places on the ticket. Two candidates
Tor treasurer are In the field, A. G. Haul
gan and George B. Shepherd. Haugan
is In the lead. He made the run two
years ago and wants to do it again. The
majority feel that he should be allowed
to DO it. w. G. Nye and t. S.
Dicked are out for the nomination
for comptroller. Dickey has done the
most work. In fact, Nye practically
comedies his nomination. c. b. Elliott.
the present incumbent. has the call on
the nomination for judge of the munich
pal court. X. A. DAILY is really his only
opponent, and Dalv's boom is said to be
principally for advertising purposes.
Nothing can be told about the alder
manic candidates. John Erickson is in
the lead in the Sixth. Burke O'Brien
thinks he has the Second and Bradish
claims the Ninth, but he will find OPP
position. The situation in the Fourth
is much mixed. The same may be said
OF the Fifth. One of the hardest fights
made on an aldermanic aspirant was
out in the Eighth ward. That ward
was plastered last night with dodgers
depicting Tom Lowry driving hordes OF
men off to the polls. all of them labeled
''Gri mes" The Eighth warders have
| grievance against the street railway
company. The street railway company
also entered the fight in the Thirteenth
for FarnswOrth and the Seventeenth for
Woodward. The same argument was
used against Durham in the Third.
c. A. Pillsbury, ID. f. Simpson and
f. q. Potter are mentioned for chair
man. Pillsbury is the probable choice.
The Prohibitionists also held their
primaries last night, but there was little
interest. Their delegates will meet and
nominate city, county and congressional
tickets Saturday.
