maries held under the auspices of the
Cannon Democrats occurred tonight in
outside county districts. SO far as the
number of Democratic participants
We're concerned, the results were disap
pointing to the leaders of the bolt For
several days all kinds of methods have
been resorted to to get crowd out to
| these primaries. Personal appeals, per-
sonaI letters, dodgers, brass bands and
other advertising methods have been
| used. Senator Cannon has been on
exhibition about the county, chaper-
oned by the leaders of the movement
| for his reelection and meetings galore
have been held Today the city was
! flooded with dodgers announcing a
public meeting at each of the meet
ing places, where addresses would be
made by Senator Cannon and others.
All silver people were urged TO turn
out and hear the senator.

and PopulistS were not only permitted
| to vote, but urged to do so. Many of
them were chosen as delegates, and
some now hold membership in each of
! the three conventions, Populist, silver
Republican and Cannon Democratic,
which meet today all at II same hour,
| but within block of each other.
Senator Cannon drove about from
primary to primary making brief ex-
hortation at each ward.

the silver Republicans, who went into
the regular convention, with the ex-
ception of a very few, was quite man.
