Monday, May 81.

RepuDllCan primary eleCllOuS VI odt-
urday passed off in a manner highly
gratifying to all Republicans having
the best interests of the party at heart.
A good sized vote was cast and good
feeling existed throughout the town
except in the Seventh Precinct Of the
Fifth District where some difficulty
arose.
During the balloting in the Seventh,
1t became apparent that w. II. Sims
would be elected. After some argument
II was decided to place the ballot box
in room by itself, thus giving each
voter a secret ballot. When the bal
lots were counted there were $50 found
In the box but only 141 names on the
check list. Mr.. Stewart seeing that he
was defeated began to rush the wrang-
ling and started off with the ballot box
A meeting will be held tonight to ex-
anime ballots. Mr.. Sims declares his
confidence in having enough votes to
carry the election. He also declares
that Mr.. McCants Stewart will have to
adjourn his political activities to an
other precinct II he wishes to win an
election of any kind.

The election in the ninth precinct,

but results show that the electors
knew exactly what they were doing.
There was one regular nomination,
that Of l.. A. lhurston, who was nomi-
mated with instructions to vote for
himself as a candidate to the National
Republican Convention at Philadel-
phia. This probably developed more
or less opposition to that gentleman
last Saturday. On Saturday morning
w. j. Coelho was announced as a can
didate and these TWO gentlemen were
the only candidates announced until
