Both of these gentlemen are optimistic as to the outcome and the friends of each expect their man to. be nominated by the primary which is to be held in the opera house Thursday night from 7 30 to 9 o'clock. There is no contest whatever for positions on the boards " o aldermen and school commis sioners ; If rfthere is a single avowed candidate for election to either board the reporter has been unable" : td locate him. There is unusual apathy as re gards aldermanic honors. It is no secret that the majority. might be safe to say all, of the members of the present board of aldermen are not seeking re erection; in fact more tnan one has expressed an absolute un willingness to serve in this capacity again. There is no pre dieting with any certainty at all wno will constitute tne ooard as it will be named by the primary Thursday night. The present board is constitut ed as follows : ward 1, V.
