CONTESTS EXPECTED IN NEWARK.
REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES THIS EVENiNG-HoW
THEY WILL. AFFECT THE NOMINATION.
FOR GOVERNOR


Some lively contests are expected AZ the Republic
can primaries in Newark this evening, and also
in Orange and the Essex County townships. for
John Kean Elias s Ward and John w Grggs
each have friends working 10 elect delegates for
them to the State Convention. There eighty
seven election districts in Newark, and 1t Is con-
ceded that Mr.. Wards friends will carry ma
jori,y of these districts Should a majority Of
Ward delegates be elected in Essex County and an
agreement be then made that the delegates shall
vote as a unit. as will probably be done, Mr.. Ward
Will get Essexs 1873 votes on the first ballot In the
State Convention But 400 votes are necessary
to get the nomination for Governor, and as the
best-lnformed leaders say that Ward will not poll
more than 200 votes on the first ballot, it is
question how Essex Countys delegation will vote
after casting its "favorite SON vote for Ward.
The general opinion Is that majority OF the dele
gates will g to Kean. although Elizabeth his
home was captured by Foster NJ. Voorhees,, and
that Grlggs will get the remainder OF the delegates
The friends OF Grggs figure out the following as
the strength of the candidates in the State Conven-
ton: Griggs s3l: Kean 90; Ward. 1j2. and Noor-

way: Kean 3i7; Grggs. 2sS: Ward. l6i; Voorhees,
