Easily

primaries passed off quietly, the vote
probably being the lightest ever cast
by the party in Los Angeles county.
In many precincts there were no
Democratic tickets in the field and even
in the seventieth assembly district.
where there was a fight on delegates to
the state and congressional conven-
tions, an occasional precinct showed up
with no Democratic voters whatever
undoubtedly due to the fact that no
tickets had been sent there.
Returns from fourteen out of seven
teen precincts in this district indicated
the defeat Of Thomas e. Gibbon and
Carl Alex. Johnston by Ernest A. Mac
Kenzie and S. M. Haskins, Mackenzie
and Haskins having a lead of twenty
six votes. In one precinct solid vote
was cast for H. l.. Brown and Thomas
Anderson.
Outside of the Seventeen there was
spasmodic scratching, but so far as the
returns showed. the caucus nominees
went through with little difficulty.
For instance. in the Ninety-third
precinct, M. w. Conkling was beaten
out by Gilbert Ingmire. the returns
showing Ingmire two votes to the good.
In other precincts, however Ingmire
failed to receive a single vote
Opposition Is scattered
In the Seventy-third district some op-
position to the slate developed, but 1t
was scattered and hence unavailfng.
The caucus nominees were beaten in
the Forty seventh precinct, and tied In
the 109th but their antagonists in the
first instance were D. G. Garrett, ].
Lehman and J. G. Bright; and in the
second, James Allen, George Wehrley
and Henry Bickel.
In the 103rd precinct, Seventy-second
district. the caucus nominees failed to
receive vote. In the Thirty-seventh
precinct three tickets were in the field
for delegates to the county convention,
William T. Craig, o. E. Parish and
John p. Reed winning out by a mar
row margin.
AS general proposition however,
there were no contests worthy the
name and the vote was surprisingly
small, even though an unusually small
vote had been expected.
Banner Democratic precincts. pre-
cincts which roll UP big Democratic
majorities on election day, cast only a
few Democratic votes. Occasionally.
even in these precincts. there was no
return of Democratic votes whatever,
no tickets having been distributed.
falling off in voting strength, but mere
ly lack of interest in a primary
where there were no contests and where
nothing was at stake.
