SOME TALK OF A DARK HORSE

The democratic primary for the selection of six delegates to represent Jefferson county in the constitutional convention will be hold tomorrow, and all twenty of the candidates are putting in continued work during these closing days of the campaign. It has not been as long or as hard as cam paigns usually afe, and has been conducted in. a very orderly and dgnified manner one worthy of the serious offices to which the candidates are aspirants.
 There has been comparatively little inter- est stirred up through the county over the primary, and experienced politicians esti- mate the total vote at not much over 1000, though in the county primaries last year the vote was nearly double that number. As each voter is allowed to vote for six candidates, that will make a total of "A 900 votes cast. As there are twenty candidates, the average vote which each of them re- ceives will be 1,200. A candidate who suc- ceeds in getting 1,sOO votes Is safe, it is thought, and one who gets 1000 is certain to be one of the Jefferson delegation.
 Several of the candidates are making man to man canvass through the country beats of the county, while others are con-
  ham, and the populous suburbs in the vi- cinity of the city.
 All of the boxes to be used in the sixty five polling places have been distributed, except the one to go to Warrior. They will be returned as soon after the election as possible, to Henry B. Gray, the chairman of the committee on carrying out the pri- mary plan.
