Counties In the State.

The Republican primaries in this county
yesterday 10 select delegates TO the Seventh
congressional district meeting which will
be held Jan. Fl, were almost as we'll at
tended as the primaries held just before
an exciting campaign. The size of the
crowds may be taken as one of the indi-
cations which show the Republican enthu-
siam that will be unbottled this year, The
district meeting the 21st will elect a
member of the State central committee to
succeed j. w. Fesler, and from the com
plexion of the delegations chosen yesterday,
II seems apparent that Mr.. Fesler will sue
coed himself In every ward there were
tickets representing the three candidates
for committeeman, Messrs. Fesler, Higgins
and Bowlus. In two wards, the Twelfth
and Fifteenth there were contests and the
claims or each delegation will be heard
Monday evening by the contest committee,
which will be in session Monday evening at
the Marion Club.
Some idea of the attendance at the
primaries may be gained in the statement
that 142 votes were cast in the Third ward,
Mr.. Fesler receiving log of them, while
in the Sixth, rs votes were cast MIR. Fesler
receiving 81 of these In the Twelfth ward
there were over one hundred votes out.
in two or the wards, the Seventh and the
