Mccormick County Officers.
THE WORKERS ARE PLEASED


Republican primaries were
held throughout New Castle
County on Saturday when county,
hundred and legislative officers
were nominated to complete the
ticket. For the county and
many of the legislative nomina.
tions, there were spirited contests
between the aspirants, and the ut
most activity prevailed through
out the county all the afternoon
and until the polls closed. With
much larger vote than that OF
the Democrats at their primaries
was polled, the Republican vote
was not so large as had been ex-
pected, due to the disagreeable
weather. While the primaries
passed off without any disorder,
it is evident that the result in
some districts is not satisfactory
to friends rf defeated legislative
candidates, who propose to make
a contest before the Board of
Canvass when it meets on We'd
nesday afternoon. The county
and legislative ticket selected on
Saturday is as follows:
Sheriff-Emmit F. Stidham of
Wilmington.

E. Bach of Wilmington.

WILL BE SOME CONTESTS
A cry of fraud has gone up
from friends of Mr.. Rudolph,
defeated candidate for represen.
tative in the second district, and
from friends of George W.
Sparks, defeated candidate for
Senator in the northern district,
Wilmington. They base princi.
pally their suspicious on the re-
turns from the Eleventh primary
district, beyond Eleventh street
bridge, where big majorities
were rolled up, on the face of the
figures announced for Robertson
and Phillips.
In addition to the contest to be
made by George W. Sparks for
the Senatorial nomination, Char
les E. Sparks, Jr., will contest
the nomination of James Kitchen
for Representative in the First
district. 1t is understood that
the ground for contesting will be
irregularity of the count in some
of the primary districts. These
contests will come before the
joint campaign committee, sitting
as a Board Of Canvass, on We'd
nesday afternoon.
