Ruef denounced the glun as unjust, as it placed the control of affairs in the hands of & packed committee. It was a cheme permitting one side to hog all the pectors. He moved to amend by strik- ing out the fifty-four names and inserting a provision giving -the County Committee- men of each district the power to appoint five election officers. A B. Truman denounced ‘the Goldberg scheme as a hogging boss programme. He directed the minds of the committee to the | fact that ten thousand Republicans of San “rancisco had not yet registered. They were waiting to see If the bosses gained the upper hand in the County Committee. He séored Kelly and Crimmins by name, At _every opportunity the henchmen of ¥, Crimmins and Dibble sought to create confusion and force the vote on the measure. Truman Jr. declared that the peo- strict desired fair play. He Republicans of that district and knew that they would not permit out- siders to come In and appoint their elec- tion officers. A motion to commit the plan to a com- mittee of five was voted down. The henchmen of the bosses applauded and demanded the previous question. John R. Hillman uttered some words of ning. He announced that his own relations Wwith the County Committee would end if the boss programme was forced. A. R. Smith declared that 35 votes re- corded in favor of the motion to refer the plan to a committee represented an independent Republican sentiment that should not be ignored Aurelius F. Buckingham of the Forty- first asserted that the Republicans of his district knew their rights and knew how | to obtain them. They would not submit to_boss rule. 1 T. H. McCarthy was willing to give all factions fair recognition. He demanded | that the other side should make conces- sion Charles L. Field demanded in a vi igorous | speech that the roli should be called on the Ruef amendment and that every member of the committee should go on record. A.

When order was restored Chairman Bouvier recognized Willlam Metzner. Mr. Metzner declared that the adoption of the Goldberg scheme would produce discord in the Thirty-ffth District. He sald: *“T know the temper and spirit of the Republicans of that district, and know that the men who supported Hor- ce Davis will not submit to be thus de- ived of their rights by the boss When reference to the conspiracy of the bosses against Horace Davis was e some one shouted, “Poodle dog.” V. B. Taylor of the Thirty-fourth District warned the committee that 2000 Republicans of his dietrict would never consent to a surrender of their rights. The faction which the committee propos- ed to recognize did not in his judgment represent 150 votes. Nathan Frank of the Forty-first made a fearless and convincing argument. He called bosses He said that he knew the temper of the boss faction and | the source of its inspiration. As he was reviewing the events of the campalgn one year ago and the betrayal of Horace Da- vis, some onec exclaimed, *The Poodle Dog.” Mr. Frank promptly responded: “We are In the Poodle Dog now. Kelly and Crimmins are outside, as they were at the Poodle Dog in that campaign. If you do not believe the bosses are here iook in the anteroom and you will find cne who Is ready to sacrifice his party and create dissension for the sake of one little office.” Volce—Name him. Another volce—Dibble. ““This plan presented by Mr. Goldberg,” resumed Mr. Frank, “is stuffed full of platitudes about fairpess, but it proposes to place the power of appointing election offi in the hands of bosses and place- The Republicans of the Forty- George J. Boyne of the Forty-first, ad- dressing Goldberg and John J. Curry, sald: “I am of the same feeling as Mr. Frank. The Republican merchants and taxpa of San Francisco will not swallow your dose. You, Mr. Aschheim, were pledged to ' stand for reform and clean politics. You, Mr. Goldberg, knocked at the door of the Grand Hotel anti-boss convention for admittance and solemnly promised to stand for reform. You, John J. Curc ry, a Democrat—we took you in on the promise that you would be faithful.” Mr. Boyne was interrupte twenty times or more, but he finished hls speech, declaring that the Forty-third District B o e KELLYS RECRUITS WALTER HILLMAN WANTED AYSQUARE DEAL" <« B S G S S e e o o o A AP i would fight bosses to the finish with an independent movement. The vote was taken by roll call. Forty- two members voted for the amendment and forty ainst it. Immediately the call as amended was adopted and the committtee adjourned.

General Thomas Jefferson Clunie made his first appearance of the campaign and was warmly greeted by his fellow Demo- crats. Ex-Lieutenant Governor Willlam T. Jeter of Santa Cruz, Nicholas Bowden of San Jose and James G. Maguire, M. F. Tarpey and Gavin McNab of the home talent were there. Mr. McNab was the holder of proxies galore. The balance of power was in his pocket, but there was no occasion for the display of strength, In fact, the statesmen adopted a plan of action before they heard the written pro- tests against such adoption. "Lne protests were given a courteous reading after the battle was over. That reading and a be- nevolent smile of Chairman Sims soothed the remonstrating element. ‘“You're a lar,” shouted John Heenan to “Sammy” Braunhart shortly after the committee convened. Braunhart down. For a moment it looked like a real Democratic scrap, but the troubled blew over and the meeting ended harmoniously. A communication from the Bryan and Stevegson clubs of the Thirty-first and Thirty-ninth dis- tricts requesting that the State Central Committee control the primaries had just been read to the committee by Secrefary Thomas Curran. At {ts conclusion Braun- hart, leaping to his feet, asked who the president of that club was. “John Heenan,” replied Curran. “Then I want to know,” said Braun- hart, “if that i{s_the same Heenan who marched In the McKinley parade four years ago?” The answer came quick and sharp from Felevant, “Sammy” Braunbart was satis- fied. Yesterday morning’s meeting was called to lssue a new call for the Democratic State Convention to be held in San Jose on Thursday, September 6. New Call for Convention. "“The so-called Stratton primary law having been rendered imvalid by the de- cislon of the Supreme Court,” said Chalr- man_Sims, “it now becomes the duty of to issue a new call for the Democratic State Convention. That is the object of this meeting.” After the minutes of the last meeting had been read Judge Bridgeford of the legal committee presented a new call and urged its adoption. The call was carried without a dissenting ‘voice. The text of the new call follows: The Democratic State Central Committes of California, the governing body and commit- tee of the Democratic party of California, which at the last general election in the State | of Callfornia, polled more than 3 per cent of the entire vote of the State, In meeting assem- State of California, on this 1ith day of Au- cratic State convention to be held on the 6th day of September, 1900, at il o'clock a. m. of that day, at the city of San Jose.
