VOLUME XC-—NO. 75. SAN FRANCISCO, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 14, 1901. PRICE FIVE CENTS. MARTIN KELLY, CHIEF OF THE COMBINED BOSSES, IS WINNER AT PRIMARY ELECTION HOW AID ISGIVENTO BIG BOSS Democrats Help Him Out in Various Districts, Rainey and Kelly Are Prepared to Sell Nominations. EE allled bosses, under the lead- ership of Martin Kelly, were suc- at the election yesterday. In the Fortieth District the Re- publican Primary League ticket, headed by Thomas P. Woodward, Ppresident of the league, was elected. In several other districts tickets indorsed by the league were successful. The bosses claim that Kelly has sufficient strength to organize the Republican municipal con- vention and dictate the nominations, and e claim appears to be well founded. For reasons best known to themselves 52,000 registered voters refused or neglect- ed to participate in the primary election. It enough to trace some of the T this apparent indifference.

Perhaps the independent citizens whose names were placed on Boss Kelly’s tickets in several the districts where the bosses were not sure of their strength will revolt and refuse to take orders from Martin Kelly, but they may not be able to o more than enter protest against the methods of bossism. The Gelegates placed before the people by the Republican Primary League rep- resented the true anti-boss spirit of the party. The allied bosses under the leader- ship of the adroit and corrupt Martin Kelly defeated the candidates of the league. It would be useless to underesti- mate Kelly’s triumph.
