1898 13 PA ~:NO FA HIS FRIENDS Declares He Will Name His ~ Own Delegates to the Conve An Affront to the Republican Clubs That “They Will No Resent. GARKLAND, Aug. 2—Dr. Pardes has taken the matter of selecting his dele- gates to_the Republican State conven- tion into-his owrn hands, and he will not alloweven his friends whose suf- frage he seeks, the men who bear the brunt: of keeping the party organiza- tion intact, who carry the torches #nd dao’the shouting, the common courtesy of gelécting the men they are to vote for.: Instead, the doctor boldly asserts that he “will select the delegates him- self. In 6ther words, Dr. Pardee refuses to triist even his friends. He will ig- nore ‘the rights of the clubs, but will peddle-out:a list for each Assembly dis- trict, -and order his followers to vote for.them... Nothing could be plainer than. Pardee’s intentions in the prem- ises.” Here is his declaration: | “I will do my own selecting. The]| clubs: ave all right, of course, but I think I am the best yudge of the dele- gates who -would be most desirable in: the interests .of my candidacy. Suggéstions would be proper enough, but club elections I do mnot believe would obtain the best results.” How his .humble followers in the] ranks:will ‘accept this aspersion upon thefr "intéiligence. and honesty remains to be ‘seén;. but. that large numbers of ‘the ‘more: {ndependent men will resent the affront in no undecided manner is certain. . Dr.: Pardee will condescend to permiit them to make suggestions, but that is all.. After they have made their stiggestions he will go right ahead and act for hiniself without the slightest re- gard for: his friends’ wishes. | His . assertion- that club elections | would not obtain the best results, in his opinion, is'a simple declaration that he places-no confidence in those he asks | and expects to-support him. Surely | Pardeé - cannot expect to car out | this: high-handed proceeding without | a‘revolt, and the unholy alllance be- | tween Pardee’ and the Buckley- | Magtires. whereby that tong's hatchet- | men:afe to. be used at the yrmmfles} in; the doctor's interest, becomes all the more- apparent. Men ‘@bout town: thoroughly versed in | the sithation 'and of every political | shade - concede. that Pardee's state- ment .is- an-admilssion of what every- | body ‘else has recognized for some time | ~—1h&t i, that he {s not as strong now | as he awas six- weeks or two months | a#0." "ThiS s true, and Pardee is grow ing ‘desperate;, as is further evidenced by his Buckley-Maguire-Examiner al- lancs. Pargse’s -declaration has had the | €ffect.0f alarming Davis, and while he | Tas not yet been-able to figure out the | full' significance df his opponent’s latest move, he, too; is.inclined to personally | supervisé.the selection of his own can- didates for-the "convention. This is | what ‘Davis. says: “The selection of delegates for the | primary - ticket {s a matter which | will not :concérn me until my execu- | tive committee - concludes its work. | The members of this committee from | the warjous sections will decide upon | the names best suited to my candi- dacy, and when the lists are complet- | <d,-of course, they will be submitted to me for final approval. The idea of | club- elections will notgrevail, though whatever . my executive commititee does-is agreeable to me.” | The action of these two gubernatorial candidates - completely ignoring the par- 1y organization and descending to the pitiful‘expedient of personally handing out'the names:of those they want to go | to:Sacramento will have the effect of greatly -extending the already rapidly | growing Eentitnent in favor ol electing an. uninstructed and unpledged delega- tion from Alameda County. Within the past week this sentiment has found | <onsiderable favor among the more in- | ‘dependent Republicans and is becoming | more popular each day. In Alameda, | particularly, this plan has met with | guch favor that it will undoubtedly be | carried out, and it is not at all improb- | able that with Pardee and Davis both assuming. the functions of a ward boss, a solid uninstructed delegation will be selected. Those who favor the plan argue on | this Hne: With two gubernatorial can- | didates from the county, neither of | whom has any outside support worth | mentioning, and with a divided delega- | tion, Alameda, the banner Republican | county of the State, will find herself at the close of the convention completely | out in the cold. She will lose the head | of the ticket and In bickering among themselves the delegates will neglect to garner any of the other nominations. | This {s sound reasoning, and many | of the supporters of both candidates are beginning to ~recognize its: force. On the other hand, it is urged, if the delegation is uninstructed it wiil stand a much better chance of forming an effective combination in favor of one or the other of the two candidates, or if not, it will be in a position to ask and receive almost anything else it may want. In this connection it is worthy of note that low down in their innermost thoughts there are lamentably few friends of either Pardee or Davis who | have any expectation of their man get- | ting the nomination. They talk big, but sift the shouting and the talfing down and it is found that the whole fuss Is merely over the capture of the county delegation. Some of the en- thusiasts seem to think that the Ala- meda delegation will constitute the con- vention, and when apprised of. their misapprehension they stop and ask themselves what they are making so much fuss for if that is the case. Oth- ers seem to work merely for, the small honor. their candidate will accrue from going before the' convention backed by a majority of his county -delegation, :and have no expectation of any greater favor falling to their champion. i Yes, it i8 becoming more and more ‘evident that Alamedans realize that the Republican - nomination for Governor | will mot come to them this year. . . The ‘Democratic County Committee | met to-night and issued a call for pri- | maries to elect delegates to the State convention. The call fixes the date Otl the primaries for Thursday, August 11, RDEE PUTS | the proximity of the close of the Great. | heard. Assessment rolls are now open for ITH IN ntion. t Be Slow to between the hours of 3 and 8 p.-m. In Oakland proper balloting - will be by club roll, and in the outside districts the County Committee is given the op- tion of ordering primaries or voting hy club roll, as they see fit.

Under the State call the apportion- ment of delegates to Alameda County as forty-three, including one at large. Based on the vote of two years ago the committee apportioned the districts as follows: Oakland—First Ward, 3; Sec- ond Ward, 4; Third Ward, 3; Fourth Ward, 3; Fifth Ward, .2; Sixth Ward, h Ward, 3.

Supremeé Court be fol- lowed: As water front lines have been con- siderably changed, owing to the immense fills that have been made between the piers and: the moles thousands of acres once awash are now -inside the tide line and are of great value. he retrial of the water front case i commenced hefore Judge Ogden to-day, and. will occupy perhaps a month.

Judge g; counsel was not ailowed to introduce such evidence nor was the map admitted. 2 The court, however, agreed that when the city:shows the dedication of certain streets this question may be reopened and | evidence allowed. : The court also intimated that when a decision is.reached it will be so worded as. not to run the line of low tide or ex- tend uny artificlal fills. This would ex- clude the moles and piers. The trial goes on again at 9 o’clack to- morrow marning. J * TAKES HIS OWN LIFE. Efixuuel Jonas Hangs Himself After Calmly Preparing for the Deed.

Ural Sumner Hughes | ‘madrried. Miss Lena L. Taber -at her mother’s home on Hobart ~'street. At | that time he was. the husband' of Mrs. | Mabel Hughes, whom he married ‘at Chi- | cagorin’ March, 1884, It ‘was while -at school -at Evanston, Ill., that Hughes met Miss ~ Mabel Tyler, ‘whom he married when ' he. was under age. He lived with| her ‘for a.couple. 6f years' and then-de- serted her, saying that he had to go.to Pennsylvania to settle up .his' father's estate. . He never returned, and since that | time Mrs. Hughes has been trying to-find | him.. Hughes.came to California, and on the.showing that he was under.19 years of age when he was married and that the ceremony ‘was performed without the con- sent of his parents and. that he had neyer lived with his wife, Judge Troutt set the | marriage aside. t 4he hearing’ of the suit a deposition was read from Mrs, Frances Hughes, thé mother of the young -husband, in which shé testified to her son's age.and to meet- ing him and his wife in New York, where thé children told her’ they had Leen ‘se- cretly married. She .also testified that owing' to false' representations by - Miss Mabel Tyler.she induced her son to'marry her. The marriage was set, aside in May, 1896. When Mrs. Hughes learned that she .was divorced she at once communigated with attorneys in San Francisco and told her story. »S{'Ae says ‘that Hughes induced het to marry him and secured the license by swearing that he was 23 years-of age. | She ‘met his mother and lived with him at’ her house until he deserted hér. Proceed- ings were commenced in San Franciseo to have the decree of annulment set aside on the ground of fraud. Before Hughes could be served with the papers he appeared, and was later. found at the Pa- .cific Theological Seminary in this city. As a result of the suit, Judge Troutt in Au- gust of last year sét aside the decree an- nuiling the marriage. Last April, while pastor of the Metho- dist church-in San Jose, Hughes married Miés Taber and ‘a -notice of the wedding |'appeared In an Eastern newspaper ‘and was seen by the first Mrs. Hughes. She then filed & suit for divorce in Chicago. and_sent papers out here to be served on her husband. He offéred to make a cash settlement with, his first. wife, but she wired: back to” her attorneys that he was a bigamist and money-was no ob- ject to her, and she wanted him arrested. Without permitting his wife to call on . her parents in Oakland Rev. Hughes left his- chureh and headed north. Heé has been seen in Portland and British Co- lumbia, but it is not known. where he is at present, aithough should a warrant be issued it is said the detectives employed by the first Mrs. Hughes will have no trouble in finding him. Mrs. Taber, the mother of the second Mrs. Hughes, keeps a boarding-house on Hobart street. “It would have been bet- - ter,” she said to-day, ‘‘to haveé investi- gated the standing of Mr. Hughes before I let my daughter marry him, but I did I | | gres: until it was’ imposstble to stop |it.
