running in the city wards at the DEM
oCratic primaries yesterday, and Aaron
Augustus Chase stood some men in
the country districts. but further than
this none of the Democratic candi-
dates concerned themselves about yes
terday's primaries.

but in every few OF them were there
any contests. With very little effort
any old man might have secured dele
gates enough to insure him of any
old Office in the gift of the conven-
tion.

Il. G. Newcomb. If he will agree to
run for judge, an effort will be made
to induce DR.. Saltry to allow the nom
ination for coroner TO go to some ply

Olyphant. being generally preferred.
If Mr.. Newcomb declines to enter the
lists the Democratic leaders will give
the convention mighty little considera-
