have GRAND MIX UP,
FirstPrimary Election in kenosha
Causes no End of Trouble
For the Officials.
BOYLE NOSES GlLLETT OUT.
Republican is Nominated for Alderman
by the. Democratsin the Second
Ward.-No Republican for
City Assessor.

kenosha has had her first primary
and # the election officials and the
men who hold the city Jobs ever dig
themselves out from the tang1es OF
tgures they. will probably. start. a
petition to the legislature asking for
the repea1tof the act. Up to 8 8 CLOCK
this afternoon the. returns of the pri.
mary hadenot been fully worked oft
and that time it was almost iimpos-
sible to tell who had beensnom iina ted.
There was little interest III the
primary at that, and in most of the
wards of the city the vote cast was
about one-sixth Of the vote cast,at the
last general election. In the North
wards there was no show .of interest,
the Eighth ward casting but 40 votes
and the Seventh but 50.
There is. just one thing certain
about it all, and that is that the first
primary cost the city $500 and that it
brought the worst tangle ever handed
over to the city officials for unraveI-
ing.
Thesmain interest in the contest was
IN the race between w. ]. Boyle and
John Gil1ett for the Democratic nom
ination for justice Of the peace It is
now alleged that Boyle won out and
that the final figures gave him a mar
gin Of % votes over Gil1ett. Boyle
received but "a votes in the entire
city.
It is.certain also that w. H. Robin
son, a1dermanSfrom the Fourth ward,
was defeated by Julius Pabst, and
Alderman Peter Jacobs, of the
Seventh ward, was defeated by Jo-
seph Schultz. Albert Karnel1 was
named by thessRepublicans in the Sec
ond ward, and John Sershon, who
was on theiRepublican primary ticket,
was named blythe Democrats.
The following is the ticket which
is in keeping with the Interpretation
of the law by the attorney general of
