Little of importance was accomplished at the morning session of the Grand Parlor, the business transacted being entirely of a routine character, including the adoption ances, which indorsed all the decisions of Grand President Sproul, from No. 1 to No. 33, inclusive. Immediately on reconvening the elec- tion of officers was gone into on motion of | John A. Steinbach. Nominations for grand president were de- clared in order. and Past Grand President William H. Nuller of Pacific Parlor No. 10 nominated Grand Vice-President Frank H. Dunne of Colur. oia Parlor No. 121 of San ‘rancisco. The nomination was seconded by Joseph R. Howell of Columbia Parlor No. 121, and, on motion of John A. Stein- bach, the grand secretary was instructed to cast the ballot, which was done, declared elected to the vice - president, Frank A. Coombs of Napa Parlor No. 62 nominated Grand sturer Henry C. Gesford of Napa Parlor No. 62. The nomination was sec- onded by H. G. W. Dinkelspeil of Bay City Parlor No. 104, and the same course was taken a ing the grand president. | Both Grand Secretary Henry Lundstedt | and Grand Treasurer Henry 8.

A Then came up the big battle of the election proceedings—the contest for the office of grand lecturer. 3 ~ Grand Orator Eugene F.

Quite a touching and dramatic scene was evolved during the nomination for grand orator. At the previou ssion of the Grand Parlor held at E , Cal., Judge William M. Conley was ponent of Senator Henry C. Gesford, an when the latter was elected the Judge was the first to walk over to him to shake bands and congratulate him. This gen- erous act was not forgotten by F. G. Os- trander of Merced, onc of the strongest supporters of Gesford at that time. It was the latter who nominated Conley yester- day, and in the cour his eloquent com- mendation of the onal merits of his candidate, he said: “It is true that I was opposed to Brother Conley when he ran against my friend Gesford, but when Conley found himself defeated he showed the generous spirit of @ true man and was the first to congratu- late his successful I then and there made up my mind that if 1 was ever in position to further his interests I would do 80 with all the power and influence I pos- sessed, if I possessed any.

Had it not been for the attraction announced to the delegates of the water carnival ar- | ranged for their benefit in the evening a night session would have been held. But they had no cause to regret the loss of time from business affairs.

P. Robinson of the Native Sons’ committee of arrangements and the committee of the California Yacht Club, composed of Marston Campbell, Commo- dore Bruce, Vice-Commodore Duncan, Port Cz«vaxn J. Sherry and G. H. Reed. When it is stated thas the various craft participating in the unique exhibition pre- sented a frontage of at léast a quarter of a mile, and that every coign of vantage was literafly packed ‘with spectators, some | idea can be gained of the vast multitude that turned out to witness the show. It extended for two blocks on each side of Broadway, and the boats were so num- erous that they filled nearly the entire space between the band ,barge, which was anchored about 150 feet from the Oakland | shore, and the Alameda harbor line. | For a background the scene had the ele- | fam.‘lyillummamd boathouse of the Cali- ornia Yacht Club, located on the Ala- meda side. Its principal illumination consisted of the letters “‘N. 8. G. W."” in various colored electric lights on one side of the entrance and on the other the club’s | emblem—a huge triangle of white lights inclosing a large star of the same color, which in turn surrounded one of blue. Between the clubhouse and the barge | was the fleet of yachts belonging to the | California and Encinal Yacht clubs. All were h““% with bunting and flags and | illuminated with strings of Chinese lan- | terns.. Nearly all nad guests aboard, in- cluding many ladies. Among the yachts | thus arrayed were the following: mpg_le, Captain Goodall; Seven Bells, An- drew Thorne; Edna, John Lancaster; Pilgr'm, Arthur Wilson; Stranger, J. Horner; Halcyon, C. P. Moore; Hazel, J. Laughlin; Hope, W. Kennedy; Dolphin, E. Smith; Surf, Phili Ames; Xara, Bruce Palmer; Sea Fox, A. M. Clay; Oliv Dave Wheeler; Henrietta, Lillie V, Captain - Euch; Surprise, A.

These were arranged three and four number of the visiting delegates, and re- | freshments were generally served during the evening, The night was also made more brilliant by the almost continuous discharge of | bombs or the burning of red and biue fire | from the decks of the fleet of stationary ts. | Altogether there were nearly a huudred craft in the display, and the number would | have been considerably greater had it not | been for the unfortunate fire yesterday | morning which destroyed the boathouse of | George D.

Considering the short time that was al- lowed for reparation. the result was one on which tRe managars certainly deserve hearty congratulation. But, so well satis- fied was every one with their work, that it is proposed by the California Yacht Club to make the ‘water carnival an event of yearly occurrence, The entire fitting and arranging of the handsome electric light illuminations on the boathouse of the club was the handiwork of members. In addition to the residents of Oakland, Alameda and Berkeley, many visitors from San Francisco were among the spec- tators. ‘L'o-day will see the labors of the Grand Parlor ‘concluded. In addition to com- vleting the list of grand officers, there are only reports of some of the committees to be acted upon.

Joseph F. Coffey of Redwoo City has withdrawn from the fight for trustees and Milton D. Garratt of Mission f’arlor of San Francisco has entered the ists. Pleasant anticipationsare being indulged in over the banquet which is set for this evening. It will take place in the rooms of the Acme Athletic Club.

In addition to the érand Parlor delegates the following will grace the board: Mayor John R. Davie, the eleven City Councilmen, the members of the Board of Public Works, the five marshals of the parade, the direc- tors of the Reliance and Acme Athletic Clubs and all the officers of the three par- lors in Alameda County. Among the decisions of the grand presi- dent that were arprgved atyesterday's ses- sion were the following: Query—Is a deaf-mute eligible to member- ship in the order of the Native Sons of the Golden West? Answer—The qualifications requisite to mem- bership are laid down in sections 1 and 2 of ar- ticle 11 of constitution of surbordinate pariors, and 1 should hold that if the applicant con: form to those requirements and was elected he could become & member. The prerequisite condition that “candidates must be of sound health” is & matter of dertermination by the surbordinate parlor to which the application for membership is made, and judgment as to that point is usually deferred to the examining physician, though his conclusions are not bind- ing upon the parlor. Ido not consider that the mere verbal repeti- tion of the obligation is essential. Language is but & mode of expressing thought and can be by word of mouth, by signs or entirely symbolic. In our secret work we make use of sign language to express various sentiments and ideas. The recital to the initiate of the various charges is purely formal, and they are only recited instead ot being read to or by the candidate in order that the eifect might be en- hanced and to add dignity to the work. 1 am, therefore, led to the conclusion that the only obstacle to be overcome is the ques- | tion of *“sound health,” and if the judgment of the examining physieian and thé parior to which he applies for membership decide that the absence of these sences, speech and hear- ing, does not bar him,and he possess all the other qualifications, he’ is eligible to member- ship. They Can Place the Golden State Where It Properly Belongs. They Are Indorsed by Prominent Members of the Grand Parlor. Leading members of the Native Sons of the Golden West indorse the suggestions | of the CarL about placing California where the State belongs. The CaLL, in an editorial in yesterday | morning's issue, drew attention to the organization, the Native Sons of the Golden West, now in annual session in Oakland, and suggested that that boa aside from its social and benevolent fea ures, might introduce one that would have for its purpose the making of California what it ought to be. It was suggested that the young men who belong to the organization could, the order, uphold the dignity and guard the fair name of the State by punishing political miscreants who betray a public | trust; that they could, by means of an | auxiliary, produce won derful results for the good of the State of California, and | movement {0 have California accorded her It was asserted that there was no dounbt but that they as individuals had exerted themselves in that great movement, and that as a body they had assumed & re- sponsibility that seemed to make the exer- cise of patriotic energy in collective capacity a positive duty, and that such organized effort under the sanction of the central body would accomplish vastly more than the scattered and unorganized efforts of individual members. These suggestions attracted the atten- tion of leading members of the organiza- tion, and a number of them were of the opinion that they were worthy of serious ‘What they said follows. R. M. Fitzgerald, past grand president, having read the CALL editorial, said: That editorial, so far as spreading informa- tion of the Stafe goes,is in accordance with my views. Those views and a great deal more | were expressed by me at Santa Cruz some six years ago. I believe that the order should do all it can to advance the interests of the State. T am sorry that I have nota copy of that ad- dress, for it would give a clearer idea of my 'ws on_that subject than I can give at this time, owing to the fact thatImust return to the session of the Grand Parlor. Subsequently Mr. Fitzgerald in a rons- ing speech, when a motion was made to make San Francisco the permanent place of meeting for the Grand Parlor, declared himself in favor of holding the sessions in various parts of the State in order that the delegates might become acquainted with all sections and understand by observation Dr. Charles W. Decker, another past grand president, also expressed himself in favor of advancing the interests of Cali- fornia. He said: The proposition advanced by the CALL that the organization of Native Sons should do something to advance the State and draw to itthe attention it deserves is a novel one, but it is worthy of serious consideration. The sug- ~stion may be taken up by members of par- ors throughout the State and discussed, and no doubt, by the time the next Grand Parlor meets, some plan may be developed which may be adopted, and may result in the greatest benefit to the State. I personally am in favor of dofng all that done to advance our State and pros- perity, and believe that the iden that the order should do something in that line ought to be seriously considered. M. A. Dorn, another past grand presi- dent, said: The suggestion that the Native Sons, as an organization, should do something to draw tention to our State and its possibilities is a ¥_ogd one, and I believe that it ought to be done iitcan be without coming in conflict' with the constitution of the order. The members of the order are taught patriotism and love of their native State and that it is their duty to do what they can to benefit it. How this order can best promote the inter- ests of California could be determined after the suggestion is put into the form of a plan and discussed. Jo D. Sproul, Grand Parlor, sai I have always held that, while this is not a_ political organization, the members should devote their attention to politics, not in the sense that politics is generally under- stood—ward meetings and the like—but politics in the broader, higher sense. Ihold that it is their duty to see that none but the best and most competent men be named for office, and that when men are elected théy faithfully discharge the duties imposed- upon them. believe that Native Sons are Food men for office, and further, I believe that it is the duty of every member of this organization to watch any Native Son who may be chosen for office, and, if be prove un- faithful, to see that he never named for another office. As to the suggestion that the order should do something to pro- mote its interest, that is, proclaim its possibilities, it is a very large question that cannot be answered offhand. Of course, I can understand that information about the State, sent out with the stamp of nprro"l of the order, would have a greatdeal of weight, but that is a matter that ought to be carefully s:n.:ll.‘lered—t at is, whether the order can do at. Frank H. Dunne, grand vice-president, did not think that under the constitution of the order it could go outside of its mem- bers in its teachings.” He said: I do not think that any auxiliary branch of the order could be organized, and I am afraid’ it would mean the death of the order. The members of the order are taught patriotism and to venerate those who preceded them and made the country whatitis. Ido not think that we ought to go outside of the order. Henry Lunstedt, grand secretary, said: Imay be somewhat of & back number, butI (frand president . of the do nbt belleve in proclaiming the possibilities of the State with & view to attracting & large immigration, but I would not object to making its resources known if it went only to drawing here a good class of people from other States, Such immigration would be very desirable. but how far the order ought to act in the matter I am not prepared at this time to say. Henry 8. Martin, grand treasurer, one of the most enthusiastic members 'of the order, expressed himself as follows: The order of Native Sons is a unit a i fornia, her development and adyaniomnroy Every individual member is solid on the prop. osition to do whatever he can to promote the interests of the State. The action taken by the Grand Parlor yesterday shows that the mem. bers are in favor of unity. I refer to the reso- lution by which the parlor placed itself on record against the division of the State. The idea of having the order do something that will boom the State, as it were, is a new one; but the question is, How could this be done? that it be done by a bureau of publicity con- nected with the order might be one way; an- other way might be to appoint a committee to discuss the matter and suggest what might be done. The suggestion in the CALL s certainly worthy of attention and should be studied. State Senator Henry C. Gesford, the grand lecturer, said that the suggestion that the order of Native Sons do something to advance the State of California was one that has merit in it, but that it ought to be studied. He said: Our order is young yet, but it is growing. and Iagree that it will be a powerful one, butits means are limited and it requires money to make known the resources by means of a bu- reau of publicity. Our members are all edu- cated to do what they can to advance the prog- Tess of the State. Of course if there could, by any means, be anything done by the order to help the State along any instrument it would issue in egard to it would be & great factor in its development, L. 8. Stone, president of Oakland Par- lor, said: The whole intent of the members of the order is the advancement and development of the State, but,as to politics, one of the first principles is to keep them outof the order. The members are a unit on the subject of the State, and they are ready to do all they can at all times to advance it and see that it occupies the position she is entitled to. The order in- stills & patriotism in its members, and by holding its meetings . and celebrations 1n various parts of the State it educates its members as to the possibility of the State. These meetings have a wonderful effect on the growing generation and instill in them a pride that corresponds to national pride for country. How far the order could go as an organization in the matter of promui- gating information about it is something that would have to be diseu but if it could be done it would be a great help. Judge J. J. Allen of Oakland Parlor said : So far as the order is concerned it is ne politics. 1the members might exerci sort of supervisory control over officials. far s possible the membe to help in developing th ought to be done to increase the population, for an increase of desirable population means ase of busingss. 1f the Native Sons as could do anything to advance the pros- P of the State I believe they would do it, for they do so individually. John C. Harmes, past president of the Yerba Buena Parlor of this city, thought that everything that could be should be done for the advancement of the State. He said: The fdeas advanced in the editorial of the CALL this morning are good, and if the order can uct on the suggestions I believe it ought 10 doso. The more people of the desirable class we can obtain thé better for the State and the better for the business of the State. The great quantity of unoccupied and unimproved land should be made productive. If a good class of ople could be brought here through the ef- orts of the order of Native Sons I think it ought to be done. Fred W. Lees, also a Yerba Buena Parlor, There are good suggestions in the CALL in re- gard to showing the resources of the State, | and I believe that a committee of the order could prepare information for general distribu- | tion. T. P. Robinson of Piedmont Parlor sai Every one should put his shoulder to the wheel, Native Sons and all, to develop the State and to let fenple know what kind of a State we have. 1think it is the duty of this organization to do whatitcan to help ihe State along. W. W. Ackerson of Stanford Parlor and formerly chairman of the transportation committee of the order said: 1 read the editorial in the CaLL, and the sug- gestions are in accord with our ideas. It is with a view to disseminate all the information that we can that we go from place to place. In that way we instruct our members about the State. d. in af As do what they can State.
