Governor Gets But Fifty-Three Del- NDER the leadership of U Flint, Pardee and Edson the stalwart Republi- cans who were elected to oppose the nomination of Gage have resolved to stand together and fight the bosses to the finish. The campaign is to be fought out on this line at Sacramento if it takes all summer and all winter. It is too late for the intro- egates. Special Dispatch to The Call. os ANGELES, Aug. 14—Gov- ernor Gage and his followers will have to go to the State Convention with just five votes | more than half of the delega- | tion from his county. In order to secure the renomination so much “‘expects and desires” ave to tell the Republicans of ns of the State why it is that nbers of his party in his home and actually at his own home have not got sufficient confidence in him to support him with a stronger delegation. Gage did not have the assistance of the Democratic machine to-day when throughout Los Angeles County district conventions were held in the Assembly districts which lie wholly or in part out- side the cities of Los Angeles and Pasa- dena. In these conventions it was im- possible for him to enlist the support of those who ¢ voted for him to obiain an opportuni ter to vote against him. contests were among members iblican party and as such they ve of the wishes of the party The result was defeat for which he were indica’ in this cour Gage, a re t which Los Angeles city would have seconded had there been an opportunity for an expression of the real desires of the Republicans.

F there is any law to protect the honest voters of San Francisco from the vpolitcial vultures who fatten off corruption, some of the State convention delegates elected in the interest of Gage at Tues- day's primaries will never secure seats on the convention floor. The methods pursued by the allled Republican and Democratic bosses in the interests of Gage were so flagrant that a strong sentiment of anger has been aroused on the part of ‘decent citizens, | and the shameless violations of the law in the various precincts will not be passed by quletly. While, in addition to the many other violations of law and decency, votes were bought in every part of the city by the Gage corruptionists, what was perhaps the most disgusting event of the day was the wholesale purchase of the votes of Almshouse paupers in the Eleventh, Twelfth and Thirteenth precincts of the | Thirty-ninth District. The buying of votes in this district was so flagrant and so much notoriety has been given the illegal acts there, that Mayor Schmitz has expressed his determination to get at the bottom of the facts, if possible, and see that the offenders are punished. PRICES PAID FOR VOTES. Further than this an effort will be made to prevent the seating of delegates elected through fraud. Under the new law each delegate elected is furnished a certificaté by the Registrar upon the re- turns by the election boards. If it can be done, the Registrar will be enjoined by court process from issuing certificates to the men corruptly elected in city in the intérests of the machine Gov- ernor of California. There is not among the criminals who did the behest of Gage at the primaries even that honor said to exist among thieves. The price paid by the Gage machine in all other parts of the city for votes was from §2 50 to $4 each. Most of the Almshouse paupers were given 25 cents a head at first, a few getting 5 cents and $1, because they complained that the rates were said to be higher in other precincts. Money was ladled into the Almshouse voting precinct on a bas of 8250 a vote. The amount not yet got back into the boss sack. It is said that Gray, his partner, Ken- nedy, and Tom Kelly, son of the boss, went to the Almshoue at 2 o'clock Tues- day morning, and that soon after their arrival the arousing of the inmates be- gan. The first vanload of them arrived at the voting booth at sun-up, and con- signments were dumped thereafter as fast as the wagon could make had_yoted. Eddie Graney, sub-Democratic boss, the pudgy disciple of Sam Ralney, and who got his earliest moral training fn the prize ring, was one of the mostsacts ive workers for Gage in the Almshouse precincts. He became so obnoxioygs that the police had to order him away from the_booth. “Political corruption at the polls and elsewhere in this city shall not go un- punished during my administration,” sald Mayor Schmitz yesterday. “If the votes of the paupers were bought, as reported, it was a shameful and disgraceful pro- ceeding and I shall investigate the matter at once. It has become a matter of com- mon notoriety.

It is generally sup- | posed that some official within the Alms- house able to do the job -was given a sum of money to arrange for the sale of the paupers’ votes and the herding of the | indigents into the corral of the Gage | bribers. It is said that injunction proceedings | to restrain the Registrar from issuing certificates to corruptly elected delegates will not lie and that the committee on credentials of the State convention must pass upon the charges. “I cannot go behind the returns,” said | Registrar Walsh, - “and must issue cer- | tificates to the men shown to have re- celved the highest number of votes. That | is all I can be officlally cognizant of. If| injunction proceedings will lie, I am, of course, the person to be restrained.” THE GUBERNATORIAL FIGHT. Flint, Bardee and Edson Making Ac- cessions to Their Strength. Gage 1s fully 125 votes short of the number required to bring about his re- rnomination, and his henchmen are work- ing with the energy of desperation to prevent unpledged delegates in San Fran- cilsco from going into the camp of the good government forces The verified reports from Los Angeles showing that forty-three delegates op- posed to Gage have been chosen in that county produce a profound impression among the unpledged of this city. Par- dee and Flint lost no time yesterday in taking advantage of the good news. cessions from the unpledged delegations are clalmed by both candidates. FOOLISH CLAIMS FOR GAGE. The push is putting out foolish claims of strength in Humboldt, San Joaquin, Placer, Nevada, Lake and Napa coun- ties. Verified returns from city and coun diminish the strength of the Gage followers. There is a deal of talk to the effect that the Edson men will break away and join the push. There is every indication that the Edson men of the north will stand firm to the end, but if a break should happen more of them would go to either Flint or Pardee than to Gage. The backbone of the Gage candidacy was broken in Los Angeles, and his Excellency stands in the desper- ate light of a minority candidate from the reglon south of Tehachapl. Of course Tom Flint will never be pardoned’| by the bosses for his daring and sue- cessful raid on the home entrenchments of Gage. Last night there were mfany Gemonstrations of joy throughout the State in honor of Flint's successful battle in the south. Next Monday E. B. Edson of Siskiyou will open campaign headquarters at the Occldental Hotel. Major Charles M. Leary, a political organizer of skill and ability, whose judgment was highly val- ued by A. A. Sargent and Timothy Guy Phelps, will advise Edson and welcome delegates. At the Palace Hotel yesterday Major Leary declared that the men of the north who were espousing the cause of Edson would stand true and loyal to the end. He maintains that Edson has thirty- five delegates In San Francisco and will get others. EDSON A GOOD “CLAIMER.” Supporters of Edson claim that he will get 275 votes from Glenn, Colusa, Lake, Ne- vada, Placer, Amador, Sonoma, Napa, So- lano, Sacramento, Marin, Contra Costa, San Joaquin, Calaveras, San Mateo, Santa Cruz, Santa Clara, San Francisco, Hum- boldt, Shasta, Siskiyou, Del Norte, Trin- ity, Tehama, Modoc, Sierra, Plumas, Las- sen, Butte, Sutter, Yolo, Merced, Stanis- laus, Tuolumne, Mariposa, Alpine, Mono, Inyo, Monterey, esno, Tulare, Kern, alndn Luis Obispo, Los Angeles and River- side. ‘When it comes to claiming, Edson is a fair rival of e. Edson has this ad- vantage: A majority of the delegates have ‘mnot been pledged to oppose his nomina- tion. The will of the people would be violated by his selectlon to lead ticket. The Republican County Commit- tee of Siskiyou has issued an address to the delegates to the State convention, wherein the merits and character of Ed- son_are set_forth. The address is signed | by Robert Nixon, R. S. Taylor and J. B. Beard. This tribute Is paid to the candi- date of the north: E. B. Edson is the only business man seek- ing the nomination to-day. With such a man in the gubernatorial chair neither labor mor capital will have cause to fear. He will give Justice to all. TLook into his business career: scan closely his official acts. We challenge any one to find a flaw In either.

O resenting the mame of Mr. Edson we are presenting to you a man that the north will support enthusfastically. They are solid for him.

Dr. Pardee was at his headquarters, rooms 17, Lick House, yesterday, and had the pleasure of meeting many of the del- egates. Senator Lukens and Felton Tay- lor cordially greeted the callers. The doc- ter is serene and confident. He is in the fight this time to stay. Four years ago he retired to give Gage a walkover. The mistake will not be repeated. The Ala- meda delegation of seventy-one, with the honor and glory of Alameda in view, will resolutely and enthusiastically sustain its home candidate. This splendid and ef- fective delegation of loyal men and su- perb workers, will surely wield a vast influence in bringing outside strength to the doctor. This large and united delega- tion of seventy-one seems formidable wh7n compared with Gage's dispirited @ il @ NORTHERN CALIFORNIA Presents a Strong Candidate for Gubernatorial Honors. YREKA, Siskiyou Co., Cal, Aug. 14, 1902.—To the delegates and electozs of the State convention to be held in Sacramen- to August 25, 1902: Gentlemen: One of the most important conventions in the history of the State will convene at Sacramento. It will be composed in the main of independent dele- gates who will have nothing but the good of the State and party at heart. Northern California has long been ig- nored, but it will this year present a candidate for your consideration Zor the nomination for Governor, on whom they will be practically united. He is a new man in politics as far as office holding is concerned. . He has never held office, except the one he now so honorably fills. He has always been one of the stalwart workers in the party. He has never been allied to any faction. He came to this State from the army thirty-nine years ago; he settled where he now resides. He has done more toward the development of Northern Californig, in accordance with his means, than any man in Cali- fornia. ‘We do not present his name because he is a veteran of the Civil War and a loyal Republican alone—it is more than that. We honor him as a man and fel- low citizen. His life has been devoted to business. It might be well to elevate a business man, a man of affairs, to the office of Governor. As an experiment, it might be well, as it has heretofore been given to professional men. E. B. Edson is the only business man seeking the nomination to-day. With such a man in the gubernatorial chair, neither labor nor capital will have cause to_fear. He will give justice to all. Look into his business career; scan closely his official acts. We challenge any one to find a flaw in either. He is “of the people,” modest and unassum- ing, ready. to listen alike to rich and poor, but firm in standing for the right, wheth- er ‘“the right be might or not.” The peo- ple of the State demand the nomination of such a man. He is the only logical candidate in the field to-day. In presenting the name of Mr. Edson ‘Wwe are presen! to you a man that the north will support enthusiastically. They are solid for him.

If the battle is to be one of endurance the forces of Alameda will be standing firm when the Gage push s dissolving. Senator Flint, at his headquarters, rooms 160, Palace Hotel, received many dele- gates yesterday. He was frequently con- gratulated on his superb display of posi- tive strength. The Flint delegations from the south and the San Joaquin Valley and, in fact, from every region of the State "embrace well known Californians of ability and high character. The notion that the push can pull down men of this character is campaign rubbish. Tom Flint is in the fight to stay and the longer he stays the firmer will be his support. Gage may be | compelled to struggle desperately to keep Flint from winning additional delegates in Los Angeles. Edson, Flint and Pardee clearly comprehend that one of their number will win if they stand together, organize the convention and put up an unyielding fight. They likewise compre- hend that a loose struggle, lacking com- pactness and purpose, will invite to the | fleld a “dark horse,’ or give Gage a| chance of winning, although it is a well recognized fact that 550 delegates elected to the conventions here have been ad- vised by the people who elcted them that Gage is uot wanted.

Mrs. Oel- richs was pregarlng to give a dinner to sixty at Rose CIliff to-morrow night previ- ous to the entertainment of Mr. and Mrs. Pembroke Jones. As soon as the inform- ation of the accident was received Mrs. Oelrichs’ secretary began to send out messages at once. As soon as the news had been spread, telegrams of condolence were received at Rose CIliff, and many people left cards, Charles Fair was ' not prominently identified with life here. About two years ago he paid a visit to his relatives in ewport. He was not accompanied by his wife. . This will, of course, put an end to any entertainments that Mrs. Oelrichs and her sister had planned for the Duchess of Marlboroufih, ut it will not interfere with anything planned by other friends and relatives of the Duchess. SPEEDING HIS FAST MACHINE MAIN DELIGHT PARIS, Aug. 14—News of the tragic death of the Fairs reached Paris this evening. The first intimation of the ac- cident was contained in a telegram re- celved by Mr. Ellis, manager of the Hotel Ritz, from the doctor named Perriquet, who attended the victims. The telegram read as follows: “Mr. and Mrs. Fair both killed. Inform Vanderbilt or bankers, Hottingier & Co.” Mr. Fair was a brother of Mrs. Willlam K. Vanderbilt Jr. Unfortunately Mr. and Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt Jr. have just sailed for New York on the Kronprinz ‘Wilhelm from Cherbourg. Details of the accident were wanting in the first inci- mation sent to Paris, but it was at once supposed that one of the hfl;!llnd rather steep hills which surround Pacy was re- sponsible for the disaster. Mr. Ellis at once sent cable messages to Newport and New York, informing Mr. Fai:-'u slllnurl. M‘rs. t-l‘:Iuartx!zlamn Oelrichs, and asking her for instructions regarding the disposal of the bodles. . r. and Mrs. Fair arrived at the Hotel Ritz in June and made the hotel their headquarters during the summer. They made frequent trips in their automobile, among these being visits to Aix-les-Bains, Vichy and Gengva. Subsequently they made an automobile trip to Ostend and other points in the north, returning to Paris before going to Trouville. Mr. Fair was an enthusiastic chauffeug and he frequently went on excursions in company with W. K. Vanderbilt Jr., and, like his brother-in-law, was very fond of high speed. Mr. and Mrs. Fair left Paris a weelk ago yesterday for Trouville. As usual, r. Fair made fast time, reaching Trou ville in about four hours. Upon arriv- ing_there, he discovered that he had left in Paris the cable code, of which he was frequently in need, and so came back in his automobile to Paris the next morn- . ing. He got the .code, took a Jeuner at the hotel and was :;sggefl;: and had _dinner at Trouville. Mr. Fair drove a {5-horsepower automobile, which he bought from M. Henry Fournier at his establishmenf. Even on the first day he drove the automobile, June 23, he had an' accident at the Avenue des Champs Elysees, colliding with another automo- bile, but the result was not serious. Trouville, where Mr. and Mrs. Fair had’ been staying, is a town of some 5600 pop- ulation, lying on. the south shore of the estuary of the Seine, at the mouth of the Tanques River, in the Department of Calvados. It is eight miles southwest of Havre, and boasts the finest seabathing place om the English Ghannel. It is about ' 110, miles in a direct line from Paris and per= 'ont hapg 135 miles by road through I'Eveque, Lisieux and Evreux. LE‘\VIEISNG BUSINESS COLLEGE OF THD.' 0. Tia—'“ Pol!“:t..
