Several very exciting ward contests oc-
| Cured in the city yesterday
| Republican primaries were held in every
ward and delegates were elected III all
except the Sixth, where mistake oc-
Cured.
In the First ward the contest was be-
tween A. G. Husey aud Frank W. Oliver
| for the council. Joe Baehr ran for the
school board on Husey's ticket aud had
| no opposition on the other ticket. the
| forces OF both Oliver and Husey worked
hard and did not cease till the polls were
closed. At that time the trisads
count developed a handsome majority
of fitty-nire for Frank Oliver. 1t is un-
dersrood that the Oliver delegates are not
| for B-ahr but will nominate another man,
but as to this there is no conclusive author
ity. One woman VINO desired 10 vote at
| this ward said she liked JoeBeahr first rate
but that it Was against all her accumulat-
ed ideas on politics to vote for a drub clerk,
She did not say why but she evidently
wantedto get even with the pharmaceutIci al
fraternity for ali the bitter 'ioses OF medl-
cine which she had to take from their
hands in her early youth.
The result at the second ward polls as
tonished everybody Tue main fight was
between Charlie Horner aud George har-
ris with j. G.. Mccall third horse IN
the race. II was thought that the race
between Horner and IL ,rriS would be close,
but when the votes were counted harris
had 257, Horner 4S and Mccall 3D.
Charlie Hatton received the vote OF the
second ward for member of the school
board. brt he was on the Horner ticket
and AS that delegation did not get electet
Charles friends dou'G know where he Is
at. As there was no other candidate IL Is
clear that he was the choice OF the wari
L. tla.rr Va.
will nominate him.
In the third ward W. L. johnson and
Samuel Hoover were the candidates for
lie council and Romayne EldrlGge and
DR.. Fordyce for the school board. Tue
fl ght was hot, but in tue round-up MI
Johnson and Mr.. Eldridge had the ma
jority.
In the Fourth ward Dr.. Minck was the
onl; candidate for the council while Mr.
LIB nan and j. c. jennings ran III oppo.
sition for the school board. IL was a hard
fight and the adherents OF both sides
fought hard for their friends Ihs result
was that Mr.. Jennings secured
the delegation by from 20 to 30 ma Jrity.
In the Fifth ward b. &. Mclean Tor the
council aud j. A Davidson for the school
board ran without opposition and Cap
tur-d the deles CATION without Il st, uggle.
In the SIKH ward the opposing forces
were r. p. FAIRIES, John NJ. Martin. james
Rsece. Isaac Salesbery and L. ". Mccain
for the council aud f H. Frirch AMI j. ii.

The candidates all agreed on one
| set of delegates who should be governed
! according to the expression OF the ward Tor
! the individual Candidates. Each candidate,
| therefore, had "a slip OF paper with his
name on it, aud in the eagerness TO vote
| these the list of delegates was lost sight or
| and not one of them was cast. Some COM
! plicat IONS may arise over this oversight,
| but AS il was an agreed list OF delegates
probably no one will object to having the
| men INTENDED for delegates, act.
The woman vote Was comparatively light
| in all the wards.
The following is list of the delegates
| and alteruates elected, VINO will meet Sat
urday in their various wards. and ratiiy
