publican primaries to select ~ dele
gates to the state convention and also
to choose candidates for various city
offices, were held last night. The in
dications are that the Quay faction
have certainly elected 18 delegates and
possibly ~, with one or two districts
with five additional delegates still in
doubt. The anti-Quay people, concede
the senator IL votes.
The polls were open from to p. m.
and the scenes around the various
polling places in districts in which
there were contests recalled an excit-
ing presidential election. Never be-
fore in the history Of the Republican
party in this city has there been such
fight in the primaries. In many
wards almost the full Republican vote
was polled
The contest practically closes the
fight in the state Lehigh being the
only remaining county to elect dele
gates. 1t appears almost certain that
Senator Quay has won his fight for the
State Craftsmanship with some votes to
spare,

AN OBNOXIOUS LAW.

Wisconsin Teachers Object to Being
Taxed for Institutes.
BLACK RIVER FALLS, Wis, Aug. a.
Teachers object to the new law re-
quiring each applicant for a teachers
certificate to pay 81 to the county su.
perintendent, these dollars to be applied
on the state institute fund. 1t is char
acterized as one of the very many fool
ish little things done by the late legis-
lature, and is considered as discrimin-
ating against certain class of labor
ers. The teachers cannot see why they
should be taxed for this purpose any
more than the man who chops wood or
drives team. The general good of
the county depends upon better edu-
cation of the masses, and it is there
fore public affair, and the teachers
agree that the expense of all educa-
tional institutions should be borne by
the public.s The school districts are
unwilling to reimburse the teacher for
the tax, and consequently it comes di-
rectly from the teacher. By the time
the next legislature meets there will
probably be fine lot Of petitions ask
ing for the repeal of the obnoxious law.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb., Aug. a.
Bandits captured the Union Pacific
eastbound overland flyer about mid
night. The engine was cut off and
sent forward in the regular Jesse
James order, while the outlaws looted
the train at their pleasure. No par
ticulars as to the amount of Doodle OBJ
tanned are obtainable. The engine was
sent on to Gothenburg for relief and
officers are in pursuit OF the highway
men. The train held up left North
Platte at / l o'clock and carried a full
complement Of coaches, sleepers and
express cars. The robbery occurred an
hour later. The country in the vicinity
of the holdup is fairly we'll settled and
the authorities anticipate no trouble in
following the outlaws. All were heav-
lily armed and conflict is quite prob
able.
