OAKLAND OFFICE SAN Francisco CALL, |
90S Broad nv Semi 10 [

908 Broadway, Sept. 10.
The Republican primaries were held
throughout the county this afternoon and
evening, and the situation is only a little
less complex than it was before.
Fred 5. Stratton will go into Mondays
convention with every delegate from the
Twenty-seventh Senatorial District His
opponent. DR.. Derrick, did not win in a
single precinct.
The contest for Superior Judge is still
in doubt S. P. Hall will certainly have
more than enough votes TO nominate on
the first ballot, but the other nominal
ton is in doubt
1t has been generally thought that Judge
Greene's strength is as great as that of
Hall, but this was denied tonight by
some OF Halls most intimate friends. In
TACT, they openly say that Halls vote
would have been even larger had so much
not been made OF the 'Hau-Greene"
slogan.
L. w. Langan has carried every dele
gate in the outside townships except six
IN Eden, which go to Greene. w. l.. Hill
has been the running mate of Langan so
far as. the judiciary contest goes, and it is
generally considered that after Hall the
chances are Tor Langan, Greene, Hill and
Allen, in the order named.
The managers of the party say that no
other names than those mentioned will
go before the convention. Aliens strength
is the most difficult of the many to esti-
mate. In the First Ward the only place
where he had ticket of his own he car
ried out every delegate.
+. w. Leavitt will certainly be nomi-
mated for the Assembly from the Forty
eighth Assembly District, as his ticket
par TaNf ia \ 4
large majority.
He is absolutely unpledged on the Sena-
torial question, and last night Chairman
MautaIen of the County Committee stated
that determined fight would be made
against Perkinsin the Sixth and Fourth
wards.
The fight was made and won, and as the
Fourth Ward is Senator Denison's it is
certain that his recent remarks about
Perkins were not idle. These two wards
VIII send twenty-nine delegates to the
convention, and as they are al! anti-Per-
kins his Endorsement for United States
Senator will Tot be unanimous and will
not be voted upon until there has been 4
heated debate, as several delegates will
take advantage of the opportunity to ex-
press their feelings regarding the Hilborn-
Frick affair.
are in doubt. II. w. Taylor OF Berkeley
has the most apparent strength in his dis
trict, and Clark of Alvarado has also a
fair hold on the delegates. The other dis
tricts cannot be guessed inteIligently.
No one Is absolutely certain of a nomi-
nation for Supervisor, although it is GER
tain that Baily of Livermore will not sue
coed himself, as he lost every delegate in
his own township. Mitchell of the First
District has several delegates, but will
have a hard fight as PeIouze has an
nounced that be will run independent.
The other district is in doubt.
