PASADENA. March 1.-The result OF
the primaries last evening, full report
of which appeared in this mornings
HERALD up to as late as IL O'Clock, has
been the chief topic discussed upon the
streets today.
As stated in yesterdays report, the
Prohibition wing Of the Republican
party stole march on the established
crowd. and came near carrying the day
before the other fellows found out what
they were about. All of the ward meet
inga were lively, and some OF them were
more than lively, the Republican
brethren pitching into one another In
way surprising to behold. Some chal-
lenrinQ was INDUCED in and few voters
ruled out on the ground that they were
Prohibitionists and had no business in .
Republican caucus. It is estimated by
those on the inside that the Prohibition
element succeeded in electing A out OF
the 100 delegates, leaving them only
seven short of a majority, and 1t ia pos
sible that they may be able to make up
this deficiency.
Matters standing in this condition,
the convention called for Friday even
ing, at Williams hall, promises to be
decidedly lively affair; there will cer-
tairly be q hard fight between the
straight Republicans and the Prohibi-
tiOn wing, The latter will, however,
have to elect all three of the council
men in order to gain control OF the mu-
nicipal body, as two OF the old officials
elected upon 9 liberal platform hold
over.

In the First ward the following reso-
luton was passed prior to the election:
Resolved, That we request the dele
gates elected to represent the First
werd in the convention to be held in
Williams hall, March 2, 1894, to work
and vote 30 far as possible for the nom-
ination of the following citizens of this
ward for the respective Offices of coun--
Gilman, city treasurer and city clerk
I. p. Lukens, +. P. Boynton and Heman
Dyer, az eminently qualified for their
respective positions"

Office of treasurer, the Star says:

nate the "bank fight" feature from the
contest, and place the gentlemen before
the convention squarely on their indi-
vidual merits. We have already ex-
pressed the conviction that an annual
wrangle over this office that involves the |
three banks OF the city, ought to be |
avoided. Some OF the bank officers we
know TO be OF the same mind, and that |
they consider these contests objection |
abls from every point of view. 1t is |
hoped the convention will find way to |
take the treasurership out of the atti-
tude in which custom has placed it."
1t is all very we'll to talk about an an
nual wrangle which ought to be a, oided,
but the fact remains that all our bahxs
have an equal claim az depositories for
the city funds, and IL ia plainly unjust

Let the candidates come out and state
