(&) THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, JOHN R. AITKEN, Republican Candidate for City and County Attorney. 1 chair without formality announcea he had appointed the following committee to se- lect candidates for the Board of Educa- tion: Robert Ash, Robert Sshlein, John | M. Chretien, Martin Stevens, J. Alva Watt, C. G. Clinch, T. B. Riordan, James Simpson, J. P. Stevens and George W. | Corey. The work of nominating candidates was | then resumed, the nominations of the Judges of the Superior Court coming up first. J. P. Stevens of the Forty-third District | nominated Judge Hebbard in an eloguent | speech eulogistic of his choice, and lhel nomination was vigorously seconded by P. A. Bergerot. Judge 8. C. Denson nominated Judge John Hunt, describing Lhim as a man who has helped to make the social, political | and judicial history of this City. *“Heisa sure winner,” said Judge Denson. *His | career has been such as to bring to him the trust and confidence of the bar and also the citizens of San Francisco. He is an every-time winner.” | J. M. Chretien trie¢ hard to second the nomination of Judge Hant, and struggled | with an almost complete lack of voice, making a neat and brief speech. By dint of exertion and lemon juice he made him- self heard all over the house and was re- warded with applause when he named | Judge Hunt. Chairman Riordan said he would nomi- | nate but one candidate, and that only | through friendship running back for a number of years. “The man 1 wish to | nominate,” be said, “is one whose knowl- edge of criminal law is a household wora in San Francisco — Carroll Cook. [Ap- plause.] He and 1 were schoolmates over thirty yearsago. We studied law together, end all through his professional career I've been near him, and I can say here to-night that not one crooked thing can be laid at his door. [Applause.] There are many people in San Francisco who know that | there have been many poor devils charged | with some offense, and Carroll Cook, if there were any merit in their cases, de- fended them without fee or reward.” Tbe spesker concluded by referring to the old galaxy of brilliant lawyers who have passed away_ from San Francisco. One of them was Elisha Cook, father of Carroll Cook, the worthy father of a worthy | son, and Carroll was the worthy son of a worthy father. William H. Schooler of the Forty-first | District seconded the nomination of Car- | roll Cook and eunlogized him for his expe- | mience and ability and said his name is a | household word. | By a strong majority vote the nominat- ing speeches of candidates were limited to five minutes and this expedited matters considerably Hugn W. Fraser of the Thirty-ninth District named Chester K. Bonestell, say- ing that he is well known and popula Frank Powers seconded the nomin: of Bonestell. L. Savage of the Thirty-sixth District ion ¢ N. H. Bur Regular Republi- can Choice for Senator From the Seventeenth Senatorial District, named ex-Judge Finn. ‘‘Before I tell you anything about him,” he said, “I want to say I was sent to jail for twenty- four hours by Judge Hebbard for con- tempt. The gentleman I wish to nomi- nate is the Hon. John F. Finn, who sat four years on the Superior bench of San Francisco. I must say he is one of the fairest, most even-minded of men, and as to his ability as a lawyer you all know that.” He was interrupted by cries of “time,” and added: “Gentlemen o! the convention, if you nominate Judge Finn you won’'t make a mistake.” | of Barr: | port of the people of S8an Francisco. Martin Stevens said: “The solid Thirty- ninth District, eighteen votes strong, seconds the nomination of Judge Finn and Mr. Bonestell.” The nominations were closed and the balloting began. the result being as fol- lows: Hunt 239, Cook 226, Bonestell 191, Finn 201, Hebbard 99. The first four named were declared by the chair the nominees of the convention. The next business before the conven- tion was the nomination of four Police Judges, the announcement of which was greemd by applause from the gallery. E. . Salomon presented the name of rgndge Campbell, sayine: *“The office of Police Judge of the City and County of San Francisco is second to no other inim- portance, There has been a gentleman in that position who is well-known, who has occupied it against the slurs and attacks heaped upon him. And yet there isnota man, woman or child in the City whd can point the finger of scorn against James A, Campbell.” Loud and ‘rrolonged cheering greeted the name, and even the vigorous rapping of the chairman's gavel failed to restore order among the enthusiastic delegates and spectators: “Judge Campbell isa %ood fellow,” at last yelled the chair,<**but time is very valueble to us to-night.” “You bet he is a good fellow,”’ came irom the gallery, The applause and reveated interrup- tions deiayed Salomon until the time al- lowed fornominating speeches had passed. P. A. Bergerot seconded the nomination of Judge Campbel!l as the friend of the poor man and the laboring man; as the man for whom all the labor organizations and fraternal organizations are clamor- ing; as the man who will be eleeted as surely as he is nominated. Frank H. Powers said he was going to nominate a man perhaps quite as popular in his way as Judge Campbell, but sull a man who is respected downtown, and the geer of any man who has sat on the police ench, who had a record as a magistrate when he came to San Francisco—Judge Joachimsen. [Applause.] John H. Durst said that some man is | wanted in whose veins runs the blood of the Spanish people. He named A. B. Treads ell, who was for six years a mag- istrate of Stockton. [Cheers and continued applaase.] The business men will vote for him and the workingmen will vote for bim. The nomination was seconded by ‘William H. Schooler. Judze Charles A. Low was placed in nomination by Judge 8. C. Denson, who declared that not a word can be said against his character. “I second the nomination of Judge Low; he is a good feliow, and I hope he will be nominated,” said a delegate irom the Twenty-eighth. Delegates on the floor added their sec- | onds to the nominations already pronosed and the nominations were declared closed. The ncminations, on motion, were made by acclamation, and the convéntion pro- ceeded to name candidates for Justices of the Peace. C. N. Fairall of the Thirty-ninth District recommended as a gentleman who as a Justice has been honeet and upright and Frank H. Kerrigan, whom he nomiunated. W. W. Allen nominatea G. C. Groezin- ger, who, he said, is a gentleman of lezal wisdom, and will surely be elected. The convention might well feel prond of him as a representative Republican on the Jus- tices’ bench. General Salomon placed in nomination Justice E. W. F. Cook, as the nestor of the bench. Judge Denson named that “very capa- ble and handsome young native. son, James E. Barry, who now occupies with distinction and henor to himself the posi- tion of Justice of the Peace.”” The name was cheered in the galleries, Frank Powers seconded the nomination, saying that Barry was a sure winner and bighly respected. Robert Ash seconded the nomination of Groezinger. 0. K. McMurray was presented in behalf of the Thirty-ninth District. The nominations were closed and on motion of General Salomon those named were all declared the nominees of the con- vention by acclamation. The convention then adjourned until 8 o’clock this evening.

Aitken, the regular Republican nominee for City and Cotinty Attorney, is a man deserving in & special way the sup- He is of the soil—a native son, a graduate of the University of California and the Hastings Law College, and, being a self- made man, his candidacy appeals strongly to the people in his present canvass. - He was born in San Francisco March 31, 1854 Thrown upon his own resources at an early age, by economy, industry aad perseverance he was enabled to earn a livelihood, and by close application, at in- tervals in his employment, he managed to acquire an education and prepare himself to enter the University of California. After pursuing the prescribed course of study in this institution he graduated and entered the Hastings Law College. Upon his admission to the bar he commenced practice in San Francisco, where he re- meined until the year 1887, when he moved to San Diego and established himself in that city. In the south he was elecied Superior Judge, and while on the bench tried such celebrated cases as the Sweetwater Dam suit and many important irrigation con- tests. Hereturned to S8an Francisco about two years ago and resumed the practice of the law. In 1886 he was a_ candidate for Justice of the Peace on the Republican ticket and ran 3000 ahead of his ticket, though the year was against him. From the time he launched out for himself he has been an ardent Republican worker. Mr. Aitken is a past president of Mission Parlorand a past grand trustee N. 8. G. W.; also a noble past grand of San Duflo Lodge, 1. 0. O. F., and a member of Cali- fornia Commandery, Knights Templar. In social, volitical and fraternal circles he is very pooular, which fact is borne out in the warm congratulations tendered him by his friends over his nomination. e e OHIO REPUBLICANS.

A rousing meeting of the McKinley Veteran Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Republican Club of California was held last night at 113 Turk street. The club is in a flourish- ing condition ana is constantly receiving accessions to its membership. The first speaker last night was A. P. Van Duzer. He talked directly to the point and received many commendations tor his address. W. H. w. Smith, a colored man and preacher, as well as a comrade of the Grana Army, to!d his audience how little had been done by the Republican party managers to reach the 15,000 colored voters in California. He spoke of the great number of colored voters 1n Fresno Connty and said speakers should be sent to address them. J. A. Whiteside, a veteran, prominently identified with the club. has just received a letter from H. L. Morey, ex-member of Congress from the Third Onio District. The letter is dated Hamilton, September 18. Mr. Morey writes: Answering your inquiry, the forcing of the free silver issue at the beginning brought out a considerable free silver sentiment, especially among the farmers, and created some appre- hension on our part; but from the first the b_u‘ue for sound money was won in all the cities. The tendency in my view is marked in our favor everywhere. Such a united sentiment Republican Candidates for Police Court Judges. Hon. A.

That party believes in buying the products of cheap European labor abroad while the factories of this country are lying idle. Even while there are scores and scores of good sign-painters in this City competent to paint better por- traits of Bryan and Sewall than appear upon the Market-street banner, the Demo- cratic party, true to its habit of bovcot- ting home products, has sent to New York for its banner. .

Winship's Great Ge!ding Ottinger Twice Travels a Mile in 2:00 34 PACING RACE NOT DECIDED. Tampa Wins the Six-Furlong Dash Frcm Ricardo in a Hard Drive. STOCKTON, CarL., Sept. 25.—By his performance to-day at the track C. A. Winship's great gelding Ottinger showed himself to be a candidate well worthy to ‘wear the title of “king of trotters,” and the honest-going little fellow will, if noth- ing happens to.him, take a shy at the mark in 1897. To-day he came out victor of the 2:10 trot in the fastest four heats ever trotted on the Pacific Coast, and re- duced his record of 2:10}¢, made at Sacra- mento, to 2:093{. Timed separately, he is said to have stepped the second heat in 2:08){—and this with ease. In the first heat, taken by Iago in a famous finish from Stam B, he made his only break in three years at the first turn and finished last. Coming out for the second heat, he was as.steady as clockwork, and held his field safe at every stage of the journey. The time for the four heats was 2:11{— 2:093{—2:104—2:093,. In the three deciding heats the gelding went to the half on each occasion in 1:03}4. He was driven by Mr. Winship’s newly signed reinsman, Charles Jeffries, and the younz Montana driver bids fair to more than fill the place left vacaat by the resignation of Tommy Keating. For the first time since his recent arrival in Cali- fornia Jeffries held the ribbons over Ottin- ger, and by the way he piloted him showed himself weil capable of handling the fast Winship string. ©. A. Winship, the wealthy owner of the record-breaking gelding, was greatly elated over his win. Mr. Winship said to- night that a year ago his trainer told him Ottinger was sore and broken down and advised him to sell him at any price. Be- lieving differently. he put some training methods of his own into effect, with the result that Driver Andy McDowell told the proud owuer at the conclusion of the race to-day that he believed Ottinger capable of beating the great Azote’s record. The attendance to-day was the biggest of the meeting, over 3000 people being on the grounds. The achool children were ad~ mitted free, and many of the business houses closed their, doors. Business with both the auction pools and Paris mutuels was very brisk. ‘The 2:10 trot was first on the programmae. Ottinger was an overwhelming favorite in the betting, selling for $20, with the whole fieid bringing but $9. 1a the opening heat the favorite, who drew the outside position, was crowded at the first turn and went to a break. McDowell, behind Iago, took the pole, and that horse and Stam B fought it out to the wire, Iago getting the decision by a nose in 2:1114. Tle field now took an upward jump, with many supporters. Jeffries was better acquainted with his horse, and senaing him along overhauled Iago in the stretch, and the favorite came home an easy win- ner in 2:093{. The following two heats were repetitions of the second,Ottinger win- ing each hands down in 2:1034, 2:053{. Iago touk second money and Stam B, which was second in three of the heats trotted, earned third money. The latter :ho'ud himself a most promising colt. The 2:15 pace remains unfinished. with a heat each to the credit of ¥Frank L and Prince Nutwood and two to the credit of Belle, driven by Sullivan. Our Boy was favorits in the pooling at §10, with Belle bringing $6 and the field $5. Frank L won the first heat away off in 2:141 with Prince Nutwood second. In the second heat Prince Nutwood, Frank L and Our Boy finished heads apart at the wirein the ol named. Time, 2:12){. The field now sold favorite at $10, with OQur Boy bringing $6 and Frank L $5. The heat preceding had told on the front horses, and Belie took the third and fourth heats off the reel. Asa running race had yet to be decided, the pace was postponed until to-morrow at 1 o’cloek. Six started in the six-furlong runnin, dash. In the opening betting the fielfi brought $20, Gladiola $18 and It later shifted in favor of Gladioia. Tamps and Ricardo made the runwing from tne jump. Ina hard drive Golden landed Tampa a winner by a neck in 1:14, with Howard third. The winner was bid up $300 over her entered selling price of the same amount by Capps, the trainer of the second horse. The money was not forthcoming at the expiration of the time allowed tbe bidders-up by the rules, and Capps stands a good chance of being ruled off. Trotting: 2:10 class; purse $600.

CHiCAGO, ILr., Sept. 25.—Lounis Gimm of Cleveland lowered the American pro- fessional bicycle record for twenty-four hours (paced), which be beld, and won a purse of $400 at the Coliseum to-night. The twenty-four hours expired at 9 o’clock, but Gimm was an easy winner and quit at 8:36. He covered 486 miles 1151 yards in twenty-three hours and 36 minutes. Fifteen thousand people saw the finish and enthusiastically cheered the winner. Gimm finished in bad shape physically. Frank Waller of New York, who holds a 24-hour record of 490 miles made in Lon- don, rode a hard finish and came in second. He was in better condition than any of the other riders. He rode 482 miles 968 yards in twenty-four hours. He was well in the lead and probably would have broken the world's record, but at 2:56 this morning he stubbornly persisted in filling his stomach and taking a restin spite of protests from his trainer. He remained off the track fifty-eight minuses, which lost him the race., He wauted to quit then and put on his street clothes, but was soon induced to again get on his wheel. Fred Schimmer of Chicago, who re- cently was made a professional, got third money, covering 462 miles and 567 yaras. C. W. Miller of Chicago started out as a likely winner, bat fignished fourth with 459 and 233 yards to his credit. Lyman Myers of Minneapolis and Bert Harding of 8t. Louis scored 400 miles and over to get prizes and then quit. O. A. Schoch of Minneapolis broke all records for continu- ous riding. He rode-273 miles without getuing off his wheel and in 400 miles was off only two minutes. i it DIXON MEETS HIS MATCH. Tommy White Divides the Honors Witi the Colored Lad. NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 25.—George Dixon, the champion featherweight of the world, fought the hardest battle of his career when he had finished his twenty- round bout with Tommy White of Chicago to-night. The colored lad went into the ring a hot favorite, but before half the battle was over the 5000 spectators ‘saw that he was not the Dixon of former battles. At times he showed some of his old-time cyclonic dash, but the rest- less energy and terrific punching power that made him famous were not there. Dixon met his match at last, and although the decision of a draw was a fair one, there were many who thought that White had the best of the encounter. The Western man lacked steam behind his blows and depended almost entirely on his left, with which he jabbed Dixon time and time again, until his nose and mouth were bleeding freely and bis left eye badly puffed up. ‘White was undeniably game and clever, and the manner in which he blocked and avoided Dixon’s rushes and swings gained bim the admiration of the crowd. Al- though White’s face was unmarked at the end of the struggle his body showed the effects of the blows which Dixon landed. Had the Westerner possessed more hitting power Dixon must certainly have gone down before the blows which were landed plentifully on his jaw during the batile.

Men can beat women all hollow about minding their own business. The less use a man has for himself the more use & woman has for him. | By the time & man really knows enough to ger married he thinks he knows enough not to. Just because a woman makes love the way they do in novels, don’t imagine it is all put on. hen a man has the chance and & woman thinks he isn’t going to kiss ber, she tries to make him think she thought he was. Before marriage couples sit quiet because they don’t know now 1o say it; after mar- riage it’s because they don’t know what i0 say.—New York Press. —————— At the battle of Trafalgar the heaviest gun used threw a projectile weighing only 32 pounds, which was 6.41 inches in di- smeter.
