TIE cITY PRIMARY.
lDot Litile Interest Shown in City Primary Election
 Last Friday.

The primary election on Fri day last proved to be the tamest affair of the kindin many years.
 The business men who sought a achange in the executive ad- ministration were unable to find anyone who would accept the nomination for Mayor. Fifteen or sixteeri men were opportuned but all to no avail because of the fact that no one of them felt jus |tified in giving two years for nothing. The salary of the office is only 5000 per month. The names of Geo. A. Gibson, J. A. Stoker and AK. Cameron were lon the ticket and A. K. Cameron was the successful candidate.
 The aldernanic ticket as put out by the business men was elected in full as follows:
 First ward Gus Rusher, J. H. Stack.
 Second Ward H. c. Mitchell, F. c. Simmons.
 Third ward Il. K. Brown. N. |P. Lawrence.
