THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1898. GALLAGHERS IN CONTROL OF THE STATE COMMITTEE Seth Mann of Oakland Chosen| as a Leader by the Democrats. Judge Maguire and Others Make Addresses in Which They Urge the Party Workers to Stand Together for the Com- mon Cause. The Democratic State Central Com- mittee was organized yesterday after- noon according to the programme pro- vided by the leaders of the Clan Ga'- lagher. ticket of the people. It is our duty to work for the success of that ticket, and we do so work there is no doubt | that we will achieve success.

Maguire. A single hitch marred the harmony of the proceed- ings. It was when James Gallagher, leader of the clan and designated Keep- er of the Official Conscience, attempted to nominate four officéers of the com- mittee in a bunch. Eugene Deuprey obj savored of a programme. This view of the case caused Gallagher to nomin- ate his men one at a time, a proceed- ing that occupied a few minutes more time, but which satisfied Mr. Deuprey’'s fine sense of fair play because it elimi- ed to this and declared that it | After the election of the other offi- | cers of the committee W.

On motion of Wright of Los Angeles the thanks of the committee was tendered to Mr. Alford for his services to the party dur- | ing the past two years. Judge Ma- | guire was then called to the platform | and spoke as follows: “I have mever in my experience at- tended a meeting of the Democratic State Central Committee where the spirit of enthusiasm was so clearly manifested as it is here to-day. Never have I seen so general a representation from every quarter of the State. I think this augurs well for the work that is to be done. | “T ghall I | | not speak of the issues of |seek a nomination to succeed himself. the campaign, but those issues are |stated to-day that he would go into the the charge made by our enemies that Henry T. Gage, our standard bearer, is controlled by any corporation. The best | answer to their calumny is that he is loved and respected by all who know him. The grand demonstration given him on his return to his home in Los Angeles is ample proof of what his neighbors think of him. Henry T. Gage never earned a ten-cent plece In his life from any cor- oration, and the people of this lden tate know that it is to their best inter- ests to elect him Governor at the coming election.” The committee then adjourned, subject to the call of the chalr. —_—— A Uniformed Republican Club. Over forty of the younger members of the Republican party et at the Union League Club last night and organized a uniform Republican club. S. K.

Oakland Office San Francisco Call, %8 Broadway, Sept. 7. There is no longer any aoubt as to the method in which Assessor Dalton will He DEMOCRATS IN A PRETTY WRANGLE Office-Seekers Resent Accusations. WANT TO BE JUDGE AND JURY COMMITTEE OF ONE HUNDRED HAS A WARM SESSION. Almost a Free Fight Among the Gen- tlemen Who Claim to Govern the Local Democ- racy. Less than a majority of the Demo- cratic Committee of One Hundred met last evening, transacted a little busi- ness and indulged in a great deal of oratorical warfare that at times threat- ened to lead to personal encounters and a free fight. As it was, the members who participated in the row confined themselves to calling each other bad names and accusing one another of po- litical dishonesty and bad faith. The trouble began when a motion was offered having for its object the exclu- sion from membership of all such mem- bers as are seeking or intend to seek nominations at the hands of the Demo- cratic Municipal Convention. The sug- gestion came from Francis J. Heney, | but it was a once met with such a storm of protests that it became appar- ent that if such an order was carried into effect there would not be enough members in good standing remaining to form a whist party. In repelling the attacks to which his motion subjected him Mr. Heney went so far as to say * BART BURKE WAS ON THE REACH FOR$R0°= " THE GAVEL WA MANIPULATED BY SETHTMANN OF OAKLAN ALIAS BONES OF JUTE Deee * JIMMIE ‘PHELAN EXERCISED HIS VOCAL ORGANS °°. Congress who is a member of this com- mittee. A voice—If you mean James H. Barry it is a lle. Sammy Braunhart—I rise to a ques- tion of privilege. I want the gentle- man called down. Chairman Dunn—Mr. Heney owes it to Mr. Hinton and myself to explain. human nature for any man to sit in judgment on his own case and not favor himself. It is not human nature for a candldate for office to select a delegate who is not favorable to himself. E P, E. Troy—I rise to a point of order. This man's remarks are un- gentlemanly and I demand that he be required to explain. Heney—Before the meeting of the State Convention 1 was told by Mr. Nougues that if I continued the fight that I was making in this committee I would be thrown out bodily. Now, I never was thrown out of a place in my life and I have never resigned under fire and that is why I am here now. Max Popper created a diverston by offering an amendment to the amend- ment providing that all members of the committee who were seeking subordi- nate political positions by appointment or otherwise, or who had relatives who were seeking subordinate positions, be declared ineligable to membership. In speaking to the motion he said that he believed there were not one hundred Democrats in San Francisco who were not seeking some such position. This was too much and all of the motions were voted down by an overwhelming majority. Chairman Dunn tendered his resigna- tion, which was accepted. He was tendered a vote of thanks for his serv- jces. On motion of Nougues Jasper N. McDonald was elected chairman to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Dunn. The following appointments were made to fill vacancies: * sWITTICISMS WERE IN DULGED IN BY LIEUT; GOY. JETE ®° 0 JIM O'BRIEN OROPPED IN AND SMILED WHEN GOV.

In this connection it may be interest- ing to Judge Maguire to know that The Call named the ticket of the committee days and even weeks ago. The officers of the new committee are: CHAIRMAN. Seth Mann of Oakland. VICE CHAIRMEN. Ralelgh Barcar of Vacaville. J. H. Seawell of Ukiah. C. C. Wright of Los Angeles, SECRETARY. Ben Maddox of Visalia. ASSISTANT SECRETARIES. John Markley of Sacramento. Al McCabe of Merced. Leo Park of San Francisco. George Morris of Marysville, TREASURER. Bart Burke of San Francisco. PURITY COMMITTEE. ‘Wright, Joseph Leggett, John , Max Magnus, W. C. Graves and B. V. Sargent. Dr. Magnus is the man who is so obnoxious to the German Democrats of the city. After the committee had been called to order by V7. H. Alford, the retiring chairman, R. M. Fitzgerald of Oakland, addressed the chair for the purpose of nominating Seth Mann for chairman. He said: “We are confronted with a situation that requires us to put all of our energy | into the work that is before us, for op- posed to us are the corporations and the aggregated wealth of the com- munity. It therefore behooves us to select such men for our leaders as have our confidence and upon whom we can rely. The situation interests us more than at any time in the past and each | of us must lend our assistance to the effort that is to be made by the party. It is with this object in view that I now desire to nominate for chairman of this committee Seth Mann of Oak- land.” Dockweiler of Los Angeles moved | that nominations be declared closed and Mr. Mann was elected by acclamation. Upon taking the chair Mr. Mann said: “I thank you most heartily and sin- cerely for the great honor that you have conferred upon me. I have not had experience in such a place before, but I have always been active in the campaign work of the party. What I lack in experience I hope to make up in zeal and I promise you that I will do all that I can and that I have a very high conception of the duties that have been imposed on me. “Our duties are chiefly executive and it is our desire that we open the cam- paign at once and get down to busi- ness. A Democratic administration of the gubernatorial office is now about to be closed and every Democrat can feel a just pride in the work that has been accomplished by Governor Budd. We have nominated a ticket and it is a worthy of the most earnest effort of every Democrat in the land. They are worthy of the best efforts of every man who believes in upholding the right against organized aggression. If we would win we must win by intelli- gent and voluntary effort. On the other side all the power that wealth can bring will be put forward. If they find us divided, if they find us apa- thetic, they will defeat us. “I belleve I see in the spirit mani- fested here to-day a purpose and a de- termination that you will not be over- thrown by any such means. If we would meet them and answer them and make their efforts futile we must or- ganize our people throughout the State. ‘We must put our men to work. “The situation is altogether hopeful for the Democracy of the State. I be- lleve we shall be successful. As soon as the work of the campaign is mapped out I propose to take my place in the ranks of the workers of the party and do whatever is within my power to bring victory to our banners.” Calls were made for Governor Budd and in response he said: “What I have to say will be sald dur- | ing the campaign. Where my volce will do any good in the State it will be heard. T believe that with Maguire ar:d the principles of our party we will | win.” | Mayor Phelan made a short address | | in which he eulogized Maguire and a(.’xxnd the dissatlsfied Hilborn men is being | tributed the past success of the party | to the Australian ballot law which he, | the Mayor, had helped to frame. He | was followed by W. H. Alford, Willlam | T. Jeter; C. C. Wright, J. H. Seawell and others. The meeting adjourned with three cheers for Maguire and the Populist- Silver Republican-Democratic ticket. ——————— HENRY T. GAGE INDORSED. Citizens’ Republican Party Pledges Support to the Entire State Ticket. The County Committee of the Citizens’ Republican party met last night, with Charles W. Forbes In the chair., The following resolutions, introduced by Thomas B. O'Brien, were adopted by a rising vote: ‘Whereas, It Is Incumbent upon th of the Cltizens' Republican party to yasert e status as an established political organiza- tion whose nominees at the last election re- cefved a minimum vote of 7000 and a maxi- mum vote of 15,000, and a Congressional vote of 10,040, all of which were enrolled and loy- ally supported the National Republican ticket; therefore, Resolved, That we now pledge our ‘un- swerving alleglance to the nominees of the State Republican ticket as approved by the State convention at Sacramento, the supreme councllof our party in the State. As soldiers the grand army of protection, patriotism, o ouperily and territorial expansion. emen am all infalifbly pledge one another to earnestly work for the success of the party of Lincoln, Garfield, Harrison, McKinley and Gage. O'Brien then spoke at length in support of the State ticket, but sald that the members were not bound to support any local ticket In part named by Martin enounced as a political Hesslan. will stand loyally by the State ticket,” sald he, “‘and we repudiate | sarding’ my -] convention with a solld delegation from the First Ward, and that he had no fear of the result. “I shall certainly have a place on the Republican ticket,” said the Assessor this afternoon. “I shall have a delegation from my ward, and I have no doubt re- support from the other wards. I cannot say now what other can- didates may be on my ticket from the First. I understand that Robert Graham is a candidate for Auditor and Dr. Blood for Coroner, but as yet we have had no understanding with one another. “I do not expect to get any support from the raiiroad. That is but natural. I will admit I have done nothing for them except treat them fairly, and I cannot ex- pect them to do anything for me except probably try to throw me down. I have | 80 _much confidence In my own standing before this county that I venture to say that no Republican ticket will be made up without my name being upon it. 1 am now seeing how many of my friends are likely to be Ylnced on tickets from other wards, and am gratified at the pros- statement of Mr. ect.” This Dalton ends much uncertainty. It means that there will be_a convention fight between As- sessor Dalton from the extreme west of town and *'Bob” ILeckie from the east end, should Mr. Leckie succeed in getting the delegation from the Seventh. This Snsslhllll} is of course denled by Frank ordan’s supporters. One of the most conservative of the Seventh Ward poli- ticians said to-day that there will be no walkover in the Seventh Ward for any- body. The contest between Frank Jordan fanned by Interested parties, and the pri- marfes may produce a surprise either way. There has been much talk about. some of the San Francisco R?uh"cun leaders taking a hand In Alameda politics. This statement is generally regarded as ab- surd. Although it is possible in view of facts that can be guessed at by every intelligent politiclan, that much interest may be felt in the county legislative ticket, it is ridiculous to assume or to pre- sume that politicians outside of Alameda are Interested in her Recorder or her Township Constables. In the Third Ward Committeeman J. I. Palmer is evidently trying to please ali the candidates, and the task as shown by his many communications to the coun- ty committee is not an easy one. Some days since Mr. Palmer wrote that he would arrange to have the entire Third Ward blanketed, and named the polling- places. A few hours later he sent an- other letter to the secretary stating that after deliberation he had concluded to change his first plan and substituting an- other. Still later he has sent a third lan to the secretary to be incorporated n the call, in which he says that “after mature deliberation” he has dectded that his first nlan is the best. Committeeman Riley is thinking that it each of the thirteen committeemen’' de- liberates and maturely deliberates and then changes his mind after all in re- fnrd to his district, the call will be ready 'or_publication about Christmas, instead of Saturday next, as ordered by the coun- ty committee. ——— Advances made on furniture and planos, with or without removal. J. Noonan, 1017-1023 Mission, —_—— Illegally Registered. The register of voters in San Francisco will be purged of nearly sixty names, as a result of an investigation mad evening by Registrar Bf:fl'. ae Jan, 1 that it was within his personal knowl- edge that members of the committee who received nominations at the hands of the State Convention had appointed delegates to that convention who they knew were favorable to their can- didacy. This assertion caused another howl to be raised and it was not until Chair- man Dunn, who, by the way, was him- self within the sweeping limits of the accusation, poured oil on the troubled waters that danger of a free for all fight was averted. The first business of importance that came before the meeting were' the resignations of William Craig, candi- date for Congress from the Fifth Dis- trict, and James N. Block. They were accepted without comment. William M. Hinton, candidate for Railroad Commissioner, then handed in his resignation. This brought Dr. Beverly Cole to his feet. He declared he was surprised that at the twelfth hour Mr. Hinton and the other gentlemen had discovered the impropriety of being members of the Committee of One Hundred. “Is it possible,” he said, “that these gentlemen have just dis- covered that they occupy a delicate position before the public? Is it possi- ble that when they were naming dele- gates to the State convention they did not know that they were to be candi- dates before that convention? If I al- lowed myself to be influenced by my ideas of propriety I would say that my friend Mr. Hinton ought to be ashamed of himself.” Chairman Dunn’ apologized for Mr. Hinton and himself by saying that neither had desired to serve as mem- bers of the committee and that their membership had been forced on them. When peace had been restored the magazine was again fired by a motion offered by Joseph N. Nougues, provid- ing that all members intending to be- come candidates for municipal offices should hand in thelir resignations at the next meeting of the committee. Francis J. Heney offered as an amendment that on and after September 15 no member of the committee would be eligible to a nomination at the hands of the munleipal convention. In speaking to the motion Mr. Heney said that it was improper that a candidate for nomina- tion should have a voice in the selec- tion of the delegates whom he wished to_act on his candidacy. Franklin K. Lane resented the con- clusions of Mr. Heney purely in the in- terests of the horde of would-be can- didates, ‘of which he is one. He de- clared that he was of the opinion that no member of the committee would take such an unfair advantage. “We are among gentlemen and men of honor,” he said, “and I do not believe that they would do anything that was not gen- tlemanly and honorable.” Heney—I personally know of mem- bers of this committee who appointed delegates to the State convention who would vote for them as candidates be- fore that convention. Chairman Dunn—It would be gentle- manly of ¥ou to give names, Heney—I refer to a candidate for Twenty-eighth District, Lawrence Hoey; Thirty-first, Charles J. Gal- ‘laghe Thirtieth, John Heney; Thirty- | fourth, John A. Helms; Thirty-seventh, W. P. Sullivan; Forty-first, W. B. San- born; Forty-fourth, H. L. Ray.

Hutchinson, the Ponulist-Sil- | ver Republican nominee for Lieutenant Governor, arrived here last evening from his home in Los Angeles. He intends re- maining for a week or ten days to study the local political situation. It is not improbable that during his stay he will consult with James Gallagher Maguire on the ill-advisedness of slighting the Ger- man-American Democrats of the city.
