The regular caucus delegates were
elected by very large majority; the
opposition receiving about forty votes.
Seven men on their delegation are said
TO be for Reed for judge, and six men
out Of the Fifth ward are said 10 favor
Reed for second choice.
The judicial contest was the main
fight of the primaries, and it was hot
In every ward of the city, especially
in the Fourth ward, the home of Cam
didate o. II. Bentley. 1t was the field
there against Judge Reed and I'D till
the time the polls closed no one SEEM
ed to know which side would win. The
official cobunt showed Judge Reed
seventy-eight votes ahead of the OPP
position. It is said that Judge Balder-
ston expressed himself to the effect
that he would contest the vote in the
convention, but the report was not veri
ned as Judge Balderston could not be
seen last night. The base OF his con-
test was stated to be that men voted
for Judge Reed who were not Republi-
cans.
In the Third ward the fight was hot
too, but il was all one-sided from the
start, as it was also in the First and
Second wards.
In the Sixth ward a ticket was put
in opposition to the caucus ticket, but
IL was badly defeated and j. D. Cald-
well gave notice of a contest on the
grounds that the first precinct is not
fairly represented on the caucus tick
ct. In the Fifth ward the fight was
mainly between Judge Tucker and
Judge Campbell. one hundred and
forty-four votes were cast. and Judge
Campbell got the delegation by nine
votes.
Additional interest was given to the
fight in the First ward by the contest
between Mccartney and Busenbark
for sheriff and Whitbeck and Richards
for clerk Busenbark and Whitbeck
got the delega ton by decisive major
tiles.
