EELS 800000000000000008 The work of indorsing the names on the “slate’” prepared by Bosses Phelan ‘and ““Whispering”” McNab was concluded last night by the Democratic convention. \There was but a poor attendance outside of the delegates when Chairman McGee called the convention to order in B'Ne |B'rith Hall. It was given out during the afternoon that the small break made in the “slate’” by ex-Senator Bart Burke of Santa Cruz had been repaired, and that there was no danger of any other breaks being made in it. With no prospect of there being a contest, the audience fell off, as there was nothing interesting in | having nominations made by Secretary ‘Walsh casting the ballot for the “slate” candidate. The first order of business after the calling of the roll was the reading of the report of the committee appointed to se- cure candidates for Supervisors who were acceptable to Head Boss Phelan. To Delegate George McGillivray was dele. gated the duty of presenting that part of the slate. In order that no mistakes might be made McGilllvray was armed wiam the following typewritten report: man and Members of the Demo- c.Z%é"éu‘.i?,fi.Lon of the City and County of ifan. Francisco—Gentlemen: Your committee appointed to make recommendations for nomi- Shtions for a Board of Supervisors reports that The committee, realizing the importance to Ithe city of San Francisco of an honest and thnselentious Board of Supervisors, and believ- '{og that the entire ticket nominated by this convention will be largely judged by the char. acter of the men selected for th«-d municipal {legisiative body, through which body the city {has in the past most suffered o officlal wrong doing, has devoted its time almost con- | tinuous! ce its appolntment to the search 1y, Ifor suitable candidates.

Joseph Nougues moved that the report | of the committee be adopted and that the secretary be instructed to cast the ballot for the twelve candidates, whereupon James L. Gallagher, of the clan Galla~ gher-Maguire, arose to register a protest. ie said that he was opposed to nominat- ing John Lackmann, a Republican from the Sixth Ward. “I think that we ought to be able to find a Democrat in the Sixth Ward,” sald he, “and I want it under- stood that I don’t want to vote for a Re- pbé}balllf:;has' a Dem};)crn!lchnmfi(nee." er's speech caught the and he was chger(‘d. . i H. L. Rea also wanted to go on record. He thought it best to leave the Sixth Ward blank, if it was impossible to find a worthy Democrat for the place. McGillivray stood loyally by the report. He said that it was the desire of the committee to secure a good Board of Supervisors, and that inasmuch as Lack- mann had shown himself to be a falth- ful public servant in the present board ,g'l;lxt:lr‘en;n}fl no(hlltr;g oult of the way in nom- m, although he w: t p:ink:ic‘nx ot gh he was of opposite “hairman McGee suggested as a pe m)nrafls‘t;\;erég.\rtnthe report, excepting. that nd_{qp!ed. ng to the Sixth Ward, be he gallery gods then entered a 5 They demanded that the. roil be” eahed on the matter, and Gallagher voiced their sentiments. The chairman ruled that a motion to adopt the report and have the secretary cast the ballot for the twelve men named, if the report was adopted, was in order. ' The roll was called, and when Max Pop- | per and Sammy Braunhart voted aye they were hissed and hooted. The motion to adopt the report prevailed by a vote f 53 aves to 20 noes, and Secretary Walsh st the vote for the nominees. | Ex-Judge W. B. Cope, chairman of the | committee on Board of Education, re- ported that the following names had been selected: Francis Pope, J. W. Maxwell, | Dr. Alfred Eichler, William M. Cannon, | .. A. Sanderson, Charles P. Eells, D. F. Keefe, A. A. Cayagnaro, Dr. P. J. Con- ran, H. M. Brandenstein, George H. Lent | and L.°J. Lyons. E. P. E. Troy presented a minority re- | port, recommending that the name of | J. W. Shanahan, a florist, be substituted | for that of A. A.'Cavagnaro. He explain- ed that he oposed Cavagnaro because a brother of the candidate was on the com- mittee. Chairman McGee and Max Popper said that in justice to Delegate Cavagnaro it was only right to state that when he heard his brother was an aspirant he sked to be alllowed to resign from the committee, in order that any charge of partiality might not be brought. I re- fused to accept thé resignation,” sald McGee In conclusion. ‘'he majority report as presented was | adopted, and “Secretary Walsh cast the ballot for the entire board. Charles P. Eels was then nominated to in the School Board. Nominations for the Legislature being next in order, L. Brannan inquired if it was necessary to have the candidates resent. “I ask,” saild he, ‘“because 1 ave a candidate who is across the bay.” The gallery applauded. The chairman assured him that if he would stand sponsor for his candidate all would be well. Brannan gave a sigh of rellef. The legislative ‘“‘slate” was then intro- duced, and it went through with but few slight hitches. Lawrence Hoey was mnominated from the Twenty-Eighth District on motion of J. D. Maxwell; Stephen B. Nolan from the Twenty-ninth on motion of L. Bran- nan; Edward Hanrahan from the Thir- tieth on motion of M. C. Hassett. When the Thirty-first District was reached James P. Fitzgerald, Daniel 8. O'Brien and J. J. Mehegan were placed in nomination. C. J. Gallagher, who was sponsor for Fitzgerald, opposed the nomination of O'Brien. “His fight has been made from a_ source that Is not clean,” said Galla- her, “‘and 1 feel it my duty to make that ‘act known on the floor of this conven- tion. His fight has been made from a sporting house at 8 Mason street, and if necessary 1 will give the names of the men who are back of him.” There was a storm of hisses from the rear of the hall, but Gallagher held his ground. “If you nominate O'Brien,” he shouted, “I do not want to assume any of_the responsibility. O'Brien, in response to repeated calls, took the platform. He sald that if he 4 nom(llna(ed ad}\d elected, he would act fairly and squarely. Th)e friends of lg/lehegnn then clamored for him to dlspla% his oratorical powers. He beastfully took the stage. “That man Gallagher promised to nominate me,” sald he, “and to-night he threw me down for Fitzgerald. All I've got to say is that I gople you gentlemen will give me a fair A Candidate Fitzgerald was not present and the roll was ordered called. O’'Brien received the nomination according to pro- gramme. The vote stood O'Brien 36, Me- hegan 24, Fitzgerald 9. James M. Hanley and Stephen McGurk were placed in nomination from the Thir- ty-second District. Hanley carried off the prize by a vote of 49 to 17. The following nominations were then made without op%smon: Thirty-third District, Eugene . Sullivan; hirty- fourth, J. J. Crowley; Thirty-fifth, Steph- w«n A. Byrnes; Thirty-sixth, Edward I Coffey; Thirty-seventh, Willlam E. White; Thirty-elghth, Lester Jacobs; hinx- ninth, Justice M. Wardell; Fortieth, assed; Forty-first, Livingston Jenks; [orty-seeond, Curtis Hillyer; Forty- fourth, Thomas G. Rellly; Forty-fifth, William H. Jordan. Joseph Nougues placed H. W, Sabin in nomination for Assemblyman from thé Forty-third District, but as it was dis- covered that he was a Republican his name was withdrawn, The committee on vacancies was then authorized to name the legislative candi- dates from the Fortieth and Forty-third districts, Barna McKinne nominated John F. Twigg for Senator from the Eighteenth District. ~There was no opposition and the secretary cast the ballot for . There was prospect of a_contest in the Twentieth District. P. J. McCormick and Henry C. Gesford were placed in nomi- nation. ~The Senatorial district com- prises the Thirty-fourth and Thirty-sixth Assembly districts. McCormick hails from_ the Thirty-sixth and Gesford from the Thirty-fourth District. It was as- serted on the floor that four years it was agreed that inasmuch as thalgznn- torial nomination went to the Thirty- fourth District, d_be given this to the Thirty-sixth e STt (et ek e ago was lived up to there was a possibility of so: 2 4 being done o):: elecuoa day, fifork; ’v‘vrr = secref e cCormiek, ry cast the ballot Emil Pohli nominated John A. Wright it wouls l‘éme District. When { goO00000000000000000000000000000008 IRVING M. SCOTT IS FOR PATTON ‘With characteristic unreliabflity the Examiner last Monday morn- ing stated that Irving M. Scott had been tendered the nomination for Mayor by the Republicans, but that he had declined the honor as he was going to support Mr. Phelan for the place. The statement was worthy of its source, for there was no truth in it. Mr. Scott denies it all and declares that what support he has is for Patton, the con- vention’s choice. The publication was not seen by Mr. Scott until his attention was called to it, but it caused some comment although it was accorded Iittle credence. Mr. Scott refutes it in.these words: “I knew nothing of the existence of the article until it was called to my attention by J. D. Spreckels, and will say positively that there is no truth in it. In the first place I was never approached as a candidate for Mayor, and in the second place was never interviewed on the subject by the Examiner. Mr. Phelan is a good friend of mihe, but I am a Republi- can, and when my party puts up such men as Patton and the other nom- inees I will give them all possible suport.” o 00000000000000000000000000000000008 PLATFORM OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY, The Republican party of San Francisco, in municlipal, judicial, educa- tional and legislative convention assembled, at the city and county of San Francisco, this 23th day of September, 1898, reaffirms its devotion to Repub- lican principles as expressed 'n the platforms of the party, national and State. It accords indorsement ic the patriotic administration of President McKinley and to the Republican Congressmen of California who have sus- tained and upheld the nation’s Executive in the successful prosecution of the most humane war in history. To the nominees of the Republican State Convention we pledge support, and as the basis of our claim to the suffrages of all citizens who desire honesty and economy in municipal and legislative affairs do hereby ordain and declare the following platform of principles: ‘We pledge the legislative nominees of this convention to vote for the ratification of the new charter in the Legislature. ‘We favor the ownership by the municipality of all public utilities. We pledge our nominee for Mayor and our nominees for the Board of Supervi- sors to that policy, in the bellef that the best government is that which imposes the least burden on the citizen. Until that result is accomplished we pledge our nominees for Suvervisors to fix a water rate which will net to the Spring Valley Water Works n>t more than 5 per cent on its capital stock, provided that the operaung and construction expenses of the corpora- tion be reduced to an amount that ig fair, just and equitable. To that end we pledge our said nominees to make a careful and methodical investiga- tion of the books of the company. The charge for gas and electric light should be reduced and the quality improved, and the city should have its lamps lighted every night in the year. The lighting of the city streets constitutes a large and necessary item of public expense. We favor legislation which will encourage compe- tion for this contract and secure to the public the maximum of efficient ser- vice at the minimum of expense. In this, as in other matters involving the expenditure of public money, we are opposed to discrimination in the award of public contracts. We are in favor of placing underground all elec- “tric wires, and we pledge our nominees to secure these results. The affairs of this municipality should be conducted upon the principles of honesty and economy that prevail in private business. Conducted on these principles a tax of one dollar per hundred dollars on an assessed val- uation of $350,000,000 will be amply sufficient properly to operate the mu- nicipal government. We therefore pledge our candidates for the office of Supervisor to limit the annual tax levy to an amount not exceeding that which will be produced by a tax of one dollar for every hundred dollars of assessed valuation not exceeding $350,000,000. We pledge our nominees for the Board of Supervisors, sitting as a Board of Equalization, and our nominee for Assessor, to the levying of all assessments upon an absolutely fair and equitable basis. We insist that as between rich and poor, corporation and private citizen, there shall be no discrimination—that the burdens of government shall be borne in equal proportion by all classes, and that in the assessment of corporate fran- chises care shall be taken to determine the reasonable value of. such fran- chises in their relation to more tangible property vested in the corporations assessed by deducting the value of the entire tangible property of such cor- porations from the market value of their stocks and bonds. ‘We pledge our nominee for Superintendent of Common Schools and our nominees for members of the Board of Education to dispense with all an- necessary text books, and to make no unnecessary changes in text books. We insist that all necessary supplies be furnished the pupils free of charge; that the sanitary condition of our schools shall be improved and the buildings modernized; that all contracts shall be subject to competi- tion after advertisement for public bids; and that the funds of the school department shall be handled with the most rigid economy. The salaries of teachers and other emploves of the schools should be promptly paid before any school indebtedness is incurred on other accounts, and our members of the Board of Education shall be pledged to set apart each year a sufficient sum to pay the salaries of all teachers in the school department, and such sums shall not be diverted for any other purpose. ‘We condemn the present Board of Supervisors for extending unneces- sarily the time for the erection of the Hail of Justice. @~ We pledge our nominees for the Board of Supervisors to grant no further extension of time to the contractors. We demand that the work be completed immedi- ately, and If necessary the option be exercised by which the city may em- ploy new contractors. The Republican party has always been the champion of labor and the advocate of protection to the industrial classes. We pledge our nominees in everv department of the municipal government to the use of the Allfed Printing Trades Council label, as registered with the Secretary of State, on all printing for municipal use. A daily wage of not less than $2 for eight hours’ work must be a stip- ulation in all contracts for public work. -~ All nominees of this convention shall stand pledged to this provision. ‘White labor and California material must be made terms of all public franchises. No franchise shall be renewed earlier than one year before the time fixed for its expiration. We pledge our legislative nominees to appro- priate legislation in the interests of white labor and for the anuihilation of Chinese competition. ‘We favor the conduct of the public pound on business principles, and pledge our nominees for Supervisors to secure the best management possible in the public interests. ‘We favor the improvement of our public streets and the extension of street work as the growing needs of the city may demand. The public streets should not be trammeled by unsightly obstructions, unutilized rolling stock of rallways or obsolete turn tables, which obstruct the public high- way and interfere with its ordinary use. ‘We recommend the improvement of our sewerage system and the general sanitary condition of the city, and pledge our Board of Supervisors to em- ploy its best efforts to that end. ‘We pledge our legislative nominees to the passage of & law providing that all primary elections shall be held substantially in manner and form as a general election. The basic condition of ourgovernment and happiness is civil and religious liberty. We therefore denounce the introduction of religion into politics, pro- claiming for all the religious freedom guaranteed by the constitution. ‘We favor legislation which will place the shorthand reporters in the Su- perfor and Police courts on a salary not to exceed $200 a month, and re- duce the cost of transcribing tg not more than 5 cents per folio. ‘We pledge our nominee for the office of County Clerk to limit the ex- penses of his office to $6000 per month, exclusive of his own salary fixed by law. ‘We pledge our legislative nominees to the enactment of such legislation as may be necessary to protect the inhabitants of the city'and county of San Francisco against the manufacture and sale of adulterated foods. We declare that in appointments to political offices no distinction should be made as to creed or color, and further afirm that the colored race de- serve and should receive proper recognition from the Republican party. ‘We commend the administration of our police and fire departments, and pledge our nominee for Mayor and our nominees for the Board of Super- visors to the support of all measures calculated to increase the’efficiency of these important branches of the government. ‘We pledge our nominee for Sheriff to turn all fees into the city and county treasury. ‘We pledge our nominee for Recorder to pay not more than 10 cents per folio for copying instruments. ‘We pledge our legislative nominees to propose and support legislation for the reduction of the expenses of litigation and the cost of probate pro- ceedings and the reduction of commissions of exc. ‘tors and administrators, and especlally attorney’s fees, in the matter of probate estates. No person shall become the candidate of this convention unless he shall wholly and without reservation indorse the principles of this platform. Respectfully submitted, J. M. CHRETIEN, Chairman of the Committee on Platform and Resolutions. 000000C000000000000000000 00000000000000C0C0 0000000 for Senator from the Twenty-second Dis- trict. There was no opposition and ‘Wright was declared the choice of the conventjon. R. Porter Ashe and Major Edwin Lewis were placed in nomination for the Senate for the Twenty-fourth District. Just as the secretary was about to call the roll, James V. Coleman, who placed Lewls in nomination, arose and d that he had since January and last night determined to end his suffering. Waliting for his wife to leave the house, he placed boards over | the bathtub and 'laying himself down laced a rubber tube in his mouth and urned on the gas. On his wife's return at 10:30 p. m. she found him in that con- dition and hastily called in Dr. Bell, who pronounced him dead. —_——— been informed at that moment that Death of “0Old Reel Foot” at last, i been imposed e der- :'teand'.fl uldnhem ‘that J%nm be:i: 3:- a grizzly that terrorized four conn-y der arrest.
