Sullivan Turned Down by Democratic Bosses, |Row Is On in State Central Ccemmittee—Labor ‘Party to Nominate. The Democrats are having more trouble and a cloud of gloom hangs over their camp. When Lane wop out at Sacramen- to the word was passed along the line that Judge J. F. Sullivan would succeed Senator J. C. Sims as chairman of the | Democratic State Central Committee. Sullivan’s claim to recognition was based on his defiance of the Hearst newspaper, | which he. uttered in a ringing speech seconding the nomination of Lane. When the warring factions returned from Sac- ramento Budd and Geary put their heads together and organized a cabal against Sullivan. The proposition was openly advanced to turn down the ex-Judge of Sharon case celebrity and put Barney Murphy to the front as chairman of th State organization. 1f common political'| gossip can be accepted as truth the | scheme to relegate the Sullivans to the | rear with the camp followers and put| the Murphys on the first line of battle has been foisted on Lane. The nominee | for Governor kicked and resisted, but he was finally convinced that it would not | be in good form or in line with practical | campaigning to_exalt the Sullivans over { the Murphys. Wrangling and counter- | wrangling have not ceased, and will not | subside until the chairman is selected. If Lane were disposed to make an ugly | fight at the outset of the campaign he could appoint fifteen Sullivan stalwarts to the executive committee and at least make an even break with his adversaries. At the convention the clever tacticlan, Gavin McNab, completely outgeneraled faction, of which Budd and Geary were the active leaders, claimed as a victory the election of George S. Patton to the chairmanship of the convention. Budd, Geary and their followers fancied that the old usages. would prevail and the chairman appoint the executive commit- \"tee. McNab, however, gave them a gen- uine surprise when he adroitly secured the adoption of a resolution authorizing the nominee. for Governor to appoint fif- teen and the chairman of the convention fifteen members of the committee. When Budd discovered that McNab had out- | generaled him a general row seemed im- | minent. High words passed between_ the | ex-Governor and members of the Yolo | delegation, but the disturbance did not | spread to the main body of delegates. The fight now is in this shape: Lane | can name fifteen if he prefers to exer- cise that privilege, but he is advised by leaders of the anti-McNab faction that | a bitter fight would follow any attempt on his part to reap the fruits‘of Mc- Nab’'s strategy in .the convention. The plan recommended to Lane is to permit Patton to name fifteen and allow the Pat- tonites s0 named to select the chairman. 1f this scheme prevails Budd and Geary will get possession of the works, and probably exclude Phelan and McNab from the councils of the party. It is noted in the political camps that | Phelan’s evening paper has declared for Lane, but no_ particular significance is attached to the declaration. It is ac- | counted for on the ground of strong per- sonal friendship existing between the Democratic nominee for Governor and Mr. Crothers, proprietor of the paper. Both were born in Canada and each animated by a desire that a Canadian- born statesman should occupy the exalted | | position of Governor of California. | REPUBLICAN RATIFICATION. The campaign committee of the Repub- lican State Committee held a long session last night at party headquarters in the | { Palace_Hotel. The announcement comes | that United States Senator Thomas R. | Bard will preside at the big ratification meeting in the Mechanics’ Pavilion next | Monday evening. The audience will be | addressed by that stanch friend of the | | common people and popular nominee for | Governor, Dr. George C. Pardee. It is| announced also that United States Sen- ator Beveridge of Indiana, one of the na- tion’s eloquent orators, will speak to his fellow countrymen. The Republicans of the land look on the bright side of life. | Republican rule brings prosperity to the | wage-earner, the merchant and the manu- | facturer, and the Republican orators will | strely dwell with eloquent emphasis on the reign of prosperity in California. The gxercises of the cvening will be enlivened | by clever recitations and popular songs. | A double quartet will render new pieces. | Special _accommodations have been re- | sérved for the ladies. Senator Perkins, {8amuel M. Shortridge, John F. Davis, Lieutenant Governor Neff and other par- ty leaders will be present. The opportu- | nity may be afforded for several speakers | other than the announced orators to | make a few remarks. The Republican | Alliance of Oakland will escort Senator | Beveri@dge and Dr. George C. Pardee, the gifted and popular native son of Califor- nia, from the Palace Hotel to the Pa- vilion. | Registration for the coming election | | closes September 24. While all the sighs | | point tg @ _great Republican triumph on | Tuesday;. November 4, every unregistered | | Republican should register without delay. | | The Republican State Central Committee tersel?v annoumnces that “a full’ registra- | tion insures the election of George C. Pardee and the entire Republican ticket.” | DEMOCRATS TO RATIFY. | On Saturday evening the Democratic | | party will o%&n the State campalgn in the | Alhambra heater with a_flourish of trumpets _and oratory. Ex-Governor | | James H. Budd will preside at the meet- | ing. He will introduce Lane, James V.| } Coleman, the statesman, whose name was | sprung on the convention and who went | | down to defeat; Thomas J. Geary, the | candidate from BSanta Rosa, who had | hopes, but never saw them realized; W. W. Foote, an old-time stalwart, and Isi- | | dore B. Dockweiler of Los Angeles, who | | was prevailed upon to accept the nomina- | tion :for Lieutenant Governor. The Democratic State Central Commit- tee has sent out circulars appealing to the | Democrats of the State to register. The Republicans made the same request of the | members of their party. Registration | closes on September 24.° As only two | weeks remain to register, it behooves the | | members of both parties to get in line for | the coming election. UNION LABOR PARTY. | _James A. Brien, chairman of the Union Labor party convention, announced yes- | terday that the delegates would meet in the Temple to-morrow evening to nomi- nate candidates for the municipal tick | At the conclusion of the municipal co vention the delegates will resolve them- selves into district conventions for the purpose of nominating candidates for Congress and members of the Board of Equalization and Railroad Commission- er: s, There is some talk of fusion of the | Democratic and Union Labor parties on a | nominee for Congress in the Fourth dis- trict. The elements of both parties, how- | | ever, are divided and it is very probable that both parties will put up candidates. | E. P. E. Troy, a lawyer of this city, who | was secretary to the late Senator Stephen M. White. has hopes, of receivi the Deémocratic nominatidn and. the Labof party indorsement. Edward J. Livernash, a newspaper man of this city, is oppose to Troy. He has no love for the latter and has openly stated he would accept the Union Labor party’'s nomination in order to defeat Troy. Livernash is in the | fight, as is also Walter Macarthur, edl | tor of the Coast Seamen’s Journal. In | the Fifth Congressional District Super- visor Willlam Wynne, Richard Cornelius, president of the Street Carmen’s Union, and Stephen V. Costello have been men- tioned as candidates. Costello has wit] drawn from the fight, as he hopes to re- ceive the Labor party’'s nomination for | Superior Judge. He has been prominently mentioned for a like nomination by the | Democratic party. WANT TO BE CONGRESSMEN. Ex-Assessor J. C. Nealon is an avowed candidate for the Democratic nomina- tion in this district. Livingston Jenks, a lawyer of this city, and Jackson Hateh, a prominent S8an Jose attorney, are also looking for the nomination. Frank H.

She is a graduate of the San Jose State Normal School. For a number of years she has resided at a farm on the Senter road and conducted a Sunday-School for the benefit of the children of the neighborhood. A few months ago, while engaged in her housework, Mrs. Chapin says a voice from the spirit world advised her to enter the missionary field and finally commanded her- to lay aside other pursuits and consecrate her life to this service. She was at a loss as to what field she should enter, but while attending the Second Presbyterian Church in this city on July 3 she heard an appeal for missionary workers in India. Mrs. Chapin then sold all of her pos- sessions, including the ranch, and prepared to leave for India. She goes without the backing of‘any mission board, and “will use her own funds. It was only by the strenuous insistence of friends that she was prevailed upon to take first-class | passage instead of steerage, so anxious was she to save all for her Chapin went to San Francisco to-day, and to-morrow s for India. FAVORS HEROES OF LATE WAR Roosevelt and Dewey the New York Herald's Candidates. NEW YORK, Sept 10.—"The people's anti-trust candidate in 1904 for President, Theodore Roosevelt of New York; for Vice President, George Dewey of Ver- mont.” The foregoing appears in bold-face type | at the head of the Herald's editorial page this morning and foreshadows the paper’s | future political policy. This may be taken to mean that the Herald foresees a split in the national Republican party and the necessity of forming a new party to op- pose trusts. UPHOLD ROOSEVELT'S STAND.

FORT WORTH, Tex., Sept. 10.—It was announced to-night that a full State ticket would be nominated to-morrow by the Re- publican convention, because of the action of E. H. R. Greene in withdrawing from the race for State chairman. Greene to- night declined the nomination for Gov- ernor, and several names probably will be presented.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.—It was an- nounced at the War Department to-day that the President had disapproved the proceedings and findings in the case of Captain James A. Ryan, Fifteenth Cav- alry, who was tried by a general court- martial at Manila on the charge of con- duct to the prejudice to good order and military discipline. There were two specifications under the charge. . The first alleged that Captain Ryan, when commanding a detachment of troops at Jiminez, Mindanao, and having in his charge as a prisoner Uval di Abing, presidente of the pueblo of Jiminez, ad- ministered the water cure to him for the purpose of extorting information. The second specification alleged that Captain Ryan ill-treated Louis Girneno, vice presidente of the pueblo_of Jiminez, a prisoner in his charge at Jiminez, by holding his head in a bucket of water. The record shows that Captain Ryan pleaded “not guilty’ to the specifications and the charge, and that the court finds him “not guilty” on the first specifica- tion, “guilty” of the second specification, attaching no criminality thereto, and “not ?uflty" of the charge. The court, there- ore, acquitted Captain Ryan. The court-martial in this case was ap. pointed by the President. The record of the proceedings of the court having-been submitted to the President, he indorsed it simply as follows: ‘‘The proceedings and findings in the foregoing case of Captain James A. Ryan of the Fifteenth Regiment of Cavalry are | disapproved. “THEODORE ROOSEVELT.” Venezuelan Rebels Make Gains.

The State Organization Convention of the Soclalist party was in session the whole of yesterday and in the evening at Turk-street Temple. N. A. Richardson presided. The princi- pal business of the day was the election of committees on credentials, order of busi- ness and new constitution of the State or- ganization. The following named were elected the committee on credentials: ramento; J. W. Stark- . W. Wilkins, Oak- @. S. Brower, Fresno; F. Los An- geles. Constitution San Bernardino; committee—N. A.

Edminston, Riverside; Mrs. V. Reynolds, San Francisco; J. George Smith, Alameda County, and A. A. Crockett, Alameda. A spirited question arose as to whether the individual branches of the city organ- ization should be represented or whether they should be represented collectively, Branch No. 1 contending for a separate representation. The contesting delegation of five from Branch 1 was rejected af- ter an acrimonious debate and the eight- :gntregularly elected delegates were given ats. By a unanimous vete it was decided that the seat of the State executive be Los Angeles. After voting on a part of the rules which were read and submitted by the chairman, the convention adjourned to meet at 9:3) this morning at the Soclal- ist Union headquarters, Odd Fellows’ building.

TACOMA, Sept. 10.—The Republican State Convention met to-day at 10 o’clock and organized by electing A. J. Falkner of Olympia temporary chairman. Dele- gate Rockwell of Spokane sent to the sec- retary’s desk the following resolutions, which were telegraphed to President Roosevelt: The Republicans of Washington, assembled in the city of Tacoma, congratulate you upon the providence which has preserved your lite for the work and labors to which you have con- secrated yourself, fied approval of the domestic policy of your ad- ministration, and, as representatives of the dominant party in this State, commend the wise and vigorous course of the administration in the foreign affairs of the nation, with reference to_the Philippine question. The Republicans of the State of Washington are in entire sympathy with you in your brave stand for the common people of the United States and pledge to Theodore Roosgvelt their support and votes for 1904. The usual committees were appointed and .the convention adjourned until 2 o’clock. On reassembling the committee on credentials and order of business re- ported, and John H. Powell of Seattle was elected permanent chairman. The committee on platform not being ready to report, the regular order of busi- ness was taken up within a minute, Judge Hadley of Whatcom was unanimousiy nominated for Associate Justice of the Elapreme Court. hen followed:the renomination of Rep- resentatives Cushman and Jones and the nomination of Will E. Humphrey of Seat- tle for the third Congressman. Before the result was announced Fair- child of Whatcom raised the point of or- der that the rules of the order of business that had been adopted were being depart- ed from without authority. The chair- man sustained the point of order, and the nominations that had been given, but not announced, were withdrawn. The committee on platform did not make its report until nearly § o’clock and the convention, without taking any ac- tion, at once adjourned until 7:30 o’clock. When it reconvened a motion was made to adopt the majority report of the com- mittee on platform. The only disagree- ment was over the Railroad Commission plank and from the time of reconvening until 11 o'clock fifteen-minute speeches were made for and against the plank. Finally a motion was made to_ strike it from the platform. This was lost by.a vote of 262% to 308%. A motion was then made to substitute an elective for an ap- ointive commission. This also was lost v practically the same vote and the plat- form as reported by the committee was then adopted without any dissenting votes. It begins as follows: ‘We, the Republican party of the State of Washington, in convention assembled, adopt the following platform: In common with the good people of all tha earth we mourn the untimely death of our great leader and President, McKiniey. His character, his achlevements and his fame be- long to no party, to nmo State and to no country. They are the common heritage of all humanity and will ever rest as a secred benediction upon the civilized world.

SCOURING YOUR SCALP. Will' Remove the Loose Dandruff Scales But It Won’t CureDandruff. If your halr is brittle and thinning you have dandruff. The mere scouring of the scalp of the loose scales won't cure dan- druff; because dandruff is nothing but scales of scalp being thrown up by a pes- tiferous little germ in burrowing its way to the root of the hair, where it saps the vitality, causing falling hair and in time ga.ldnesa. W, you can’t stop dandruff, or falling hair, nor prevent baldness un- less you destroy that germ, and the only preparation that can do it is the new scientific discovery, Newbro’s Herpicide. In fact, no other hair preparation claims to kill the dandruff germ; all of them will clean the scalp. Soap and water will do that, but only Newbro's Herpicide gets at the root of the trouble and kills the dan~ druff germ. R.

An Abundance of Blood PAINE’S Celery Compound Cleanses the Vital Fluid, Inoreases Its Supply, Banishes the Seeds of Localized Diseases, and Nourishes Every Im- portant Organ. The use of Paine’s Celery Compound means an abundance of pure, vitalizing blood, a perfect regulating of circulation, and the banishment of localized diseases such as insomnia, neuralgia, rheumatism, eczema, salt rheum, blood diseases, run- ning sores and eruptions. If your sleep is not restful and refresh- ing, if your spirits are low, if you are morose, melancholie, and oppressed with morbid feelings, be assured your blood demands instant attention. Paine’s Celery Compound is the one great and never failing agent of making pure, fresh blood, for nourishing’ the dominant organs of the body, for recruit- ing the strength of young and old. Often, very often, a delay of one day proves fatal. Foul and poisoned blood carries death at every beat of the heart. Mrs. C. R. Root, Mansfleld, Pa., says: “When I began taking Paine’s Celery Compound I was all run down after a severe attack of the grippe and was al- most tired of life. I had salt rheum very badly in my hand, and the doctors told me there was no permanent cure for it when it had got into a person’s blood so badly, but I am happy to tell you that Paine’s Celery Compound cured me of salt rheum kidney trouble and other afl- ments. It i{s always my doctor.” EYE - GLASSES SPECTACLES Are simple in adjust- ment, eleganwg e seslie oo struction. Prices Moderate.
