OFFICERS FOR LEAGUE OF REPUBLICAN CLUBS Many Names Have Already Been Mentioned, and a Lively Con- test Is Expected. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, April 23.—From pres- ent indications before the blennial con- vention of the League of Republican Clubs convenes, Friday, April 27, much in- terest will have been aroused in'the selec- tion of a president and secretary of the State League for the ensuing term. 1t is now known that Colonel George Stone, the present president, does not again wish the honor. While the Los An- geles contingent has no_speclal candidate the names of General George A. Knight and George C. Pardee are locally mentioned. The candidate that has the greatest following and who is be- ing groomed by the Republican League of San Francisco is their popular member, G. A. Newhall. His candidacy, as far as Los Angeles is concerned, may recelve The honor of secre- tary may fall to Al Linley. who is backed by a number of Northern delegations. One of the undeveloped struggles will be the selection of the thirty-four delegates to represent the State League in the Na- tional League Convention that meets in St. Paul, July 17 and 19. Each district will be allowed four delegates, with six dele- gates at large. The younger blood of the league is de- termined that only workers and active men shafl fill any position within the gift of the convention. All is in readiness for the reception of the deiegates. The exec- utive committee reports to-night that 135 delegates have been chosen from the 255 clubs that have reported. The official count of members in the State as reported by the club officers now reaches 26,000. A score of clubs will report during this week. San Jose will sena 200 delegates and workers, as that town is in the fight for convention honors, and from the looks of things the plum will go there. A still hunt is being made by two other towns.
