INTEREST GOOD; VOTE LARGE

The primary election last Tuesday
was of fair interest in Garfield county
and the vote was about as usual in
primary contests. The weather was
ideal and the contest was of a good
natured character throughout the
county. The work that was done on
the final day for the various candi-
dates was of quiet character, and
the best of feeling prevailed between
Cpl osing candidates, who were content
tc submit the: case to the people and
abide cheertcIlv 4. possible to tao yer
diet of the voters of their party
The chief fight in this county was
in the Republican ranks, and was CEN
tered on two offices-sherff and state
senator. H. c. Jessup, who has previ-
ously served this county in most sat
isfactory manner, was an easy win tcr
over his only contestant, John G. Rich
ardson, who made very creditable
race in some precincts, but lost heavily
in others. On the contest for state
senator Judge Noonan ran well in
Glenwood, as he always does, but lost
heavily in the Carbonate and Cattle
creek sections, as was freely predict
ed, losing the county to his opponent,
R. @. Callen, by only seven votes, and
losing each of the other counties in
the district, Eagle and Pitkin, Callen 8
majority in the district being some
thing over one hundred, according to
latest returns.
