CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRAMEN- TO, Aug. 21.—The Alameda County dele- gation at last returns home with some- thing.

On the fourth ballot Gage achieved the maximum of his strength—339 votes. Every hidden supporter had been.uncovered and brought into line, and yet he was 77 votes short. When the fifth ballot showed a drop of 3% votes, leav- his total 335%%, Burns remarked, “His strength is exhausted; he is beaten!” = Messengers were dispatched to the fighting line to pull out Gage. Homer Lynch of the Secretary of State’s office, Martin Kelly and Eddie Conroy carried the message along the line. Sacramento refused to take orders from the subordinate that visited the delegates, and a scene ensued that threatened to cul- minate in fisticuffs. One of the most gratifying events of the convention was the defeat of George C. Sharpe for Clerk of the Supreme Court. The allied bosses made a deal among themselves early in the day to give Martin Kelly the privilege of rewarding his city contingent with the patronage of the office. Every éffort was made to line up the remnants of the Gage machine to Sharpe’s support, but the independent stalwart Republicans smashed the boss programme and nomi- nated Frank €. Jordan. REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR GOVERNOR SURROUNDED BY HIS FAMILY. i | Family of - Nominee Receives Glad Tidings. AKLAND, Aug. 27.—The news of her husband’s nomination was received by Mrs. Pardee at the family resi- dence, 672 Eleventh street, through a telegram to her from Dr. Pardee. | It was not without a feeling of relief that Mrs. Pardee said this after- noon: “We had been not a little bit| nervous last night after we learned that | the convention had adjourned without reaching a nomination. Of course, you will understand my deep interest in the success of Dr. Pardee. All of us are deep- ly gratified over the resuit. It is not ela- tion so much as feeling of satisfaction, coupled with a softening element that comes with the thought of the responsi- bilities ahead.” Hundreds of telegrams of congratulation are being received at the Pardee residence from all portions of the State. Dr. Pardee’s immediate household con- sists of his wife and four children, Flor- ence, Madeline, Carol and Helen, and Miss Etta Penniman, his wife's sister. The family home was built by the nomi- nee’s father, the late Dr. E. H. Pardee, many years ago and is a type of dwell- ings of the ’60's, It is a large, roomy home, comfortable and in quiet taste. Amble grounds surround it. @ codes and his statutes and delved into poetry and music, with this result, set to an alr from the opera of “The Serénade:" He was a bold, bad man; He was a desperado, And he struck this town Like a wild tornado. He walked the streets Like a wise gaza-bee, And every time he took a drink He shouted ‘‘Par—dee!” Who the “he” referred to was mot ap- parent, but the refrain was catchy and the song caught on. In an hour all Sac- ramento was singing it. Then it possessed the merit of being applicable to any one, anywhere. It might have had some mys- terious reference to Pardee himself as a wild tornado, or it might have meant Judge Melvin himself as a ‘“‘wise gazaba.” But the song went, and fifty stalwart Re- gubllcnns, with Asa V. Mendenhall at the ead, stormed the headquarters of the various candidates. The Alamedans did that four years ago when they lost, and they saw no reason why they should not do it when they had won. It is true that they lacked the picturesque presence of “Billy” Friend, but “Billy’ Friend is now the Rev. William Nat Friend and is the pastor of a church in Colorado. Gage, Edson and Hayes were not in their headquarters when the Alameda carolers arrived, but Tom Flint was. Tom Flint came to the door of his rooms, and when the song was done the sturdy fight- er from San Juan made a happy little address. ““Boys,” he sald, “I am glad you came arcund, and you can always come to m; CFORGF €. headquarters, win or lose. I met the en}: emy—no, not an enemy, but simply an opponent—and I am his. Now I am out for that opponent, and you will get ail gl]'lee zhi.l that Tom Flint can give to help C im."" Then the Alamedans gave three cheers l!or Flint and went to dfimer. — Notable_ in the Medical World and for a Nfi?nber of Years Con- spicuous in California Politics Is the Republican = AKLAND, Aug. 27.—Dr. George C. Pardee, the Republican nominee | for Governor, is a native of Cali- fornia, having been born July 25, 1857, in San Francisco. He is there- | fore forty-five years of age. His father, the late Dr. E. H. Pardee, was a ploneer of California, and twenty- five years ago was one of the noted oculists of this State. The elder Pardee was a Fremont Republican, and served actively in the party’s ranks, being a State Senator and one of Oakland’s not- able Mayors. Dr. George Pardee inherited both the professional and the political predilections of his parent. Oakland has been Dr. Pardee’'s home since his childhood. Soon after his birth, the family crossed the bay and settled here. For three years they resided in San Diego during the latter part of the 60's, but returned to Oakland. Dr. Pardee was started in life on a pro- fessional career. To that end he received an education complete and liberal, be- ginning Wwith a graduation in the first class out of the Oakland High ‘school. Four years later he was graduated with the degrees of Ph. D. and A. M. from the University of California. Then he took a two years’ course in Cooper Medical college, and in 1881, entered the Univer- sity of Leipsic, Germany, and graduated in "18%5. During that time Dr. Pardee studied in special lines at Vienna, Paris and Berlin. Upon his return to California be de- voted himself to special work on the eye, ear, nose and throat. He has attained high rank in his profession. In 1887, Dr. Pardee weaded Miss Helen Penniman. Dr, and Mrs. Pardee have four children, Florence, Madeline, Carol and Helen. Dr. Pardee went into politics some years ago and became one of the leaderas in the mug-!lded contests that have developed in Oakland and Alameda County. His first step into the arena was two years after he had married, when he was a; ointed & member of the Board of Healt] n 1891 Dr. Pardee was swept into the fight by his election to_ the City Council from the Seventh Ward. He was practi- cally the minority member of that Coun- cil. That two years of strenuous effort landed the oculist as the "reform’ candi- date for Mayor. He was elected easily. During his term as Mayor the great rail- road strike of 1894 occurred, followed later by an invasion of “Kelly’s industrial army,” ~which was modeled after the “‘Coxey army”’ of the East and started to make Oakland the base of supplies for a campalgn. The Mayor was compelled to use stern measures to get the motley gathering out of town. Dr. Pardee while Mayor prevented an attempt of the Southern Pacific Company to impound the water front by driving obstructing plles around the southwest side of the city. His retirement from office ended his official career, but left the doc- tor in a position as an important political factor. ~When the campaign for State nominations was opened four years ago Dr. Pardee went to Sacramento with the Alameda delegatlon of seventy-one votes behind him. ut he withdrew his name, giving way to the man whom he defeated at Sacramento to-day. Besides his political affiliations, Dr. Pardee was a warm supporter of the State militia and served through the ranks and up to the grade of lieutenant colonel. He is very prominent in fraternal circles, be- ing a member of the Masonic owder, a g.a‘!!t. grand master of the State; a Knight lar, affiliated with Oakland Com- mandery No. 11; a Mystic Shriner, and :l:g‘:. :ne&ger efftl'll;a {(n!gh(s of Pythias, n er o nited Wo Woodmen of the World. et ANDERSON SHOWS EXCELLENT RECORD UISUN, Aug. 27.—Alden Anderson is the son of J.
