The recommendation of the committee which occasioned the most heated discus- sion was that which advised that the con- ventions of the Fourth and Fifth Con- gressional districts meet on September 16 to make their nominations. Harry Knox offered an amendment to the effect that the conventions assemble at once. He £aid that if the nominations were made immediately ghe Democratic convention would be 1 y to indorse the Labor Union candidates. The motion was sup- ported by Thomas Egan, H. and John McLaughlin. They existing conditions imperatively demand- ed that the conventions meet immediately. In regard to the convention of the Fourth District, the amendment was adopted. When it came to a vote in regard to whether the Fifth Congressional conven- tion should also be convened at once, Chairman Brien took the floor and made a strong appeal in behalf of the mem- bers of the Clara and San Mateo counties. He said that if the convention met immediately the union men of these counties would not be represented. He was ably assi ed in the debate by James H. Roxburg] The amendment was finally and the convention of the Fifth, as rec- ommended by the report of the committee, will meet on September 16 in this city. PROCEEDS TO ORGANIZE. The convention here decided that spell-binders should have hit five minute: in which to do their talking. The report of the committee was then adopted as amended. It was moved that the temporary of- ficers be made permanent. This motion was ruled out of order and Captain J. J. Parker, Hugh McKevitt and J. H. Brien, the temporary chairman, were placed in nomination for chairman. J. H. Brien was elected by 2 large plurality and on motion of a delegate his election was made una¥imous. J. J. Parker and Hugh McKevitt placed in nomination for first vice chair- man. McKevitt was elected. The tem. tem- porary secretary were made permanent officers of the convention. John Coghlan was unanimously elected treasurer. Three sergeants at arms were appointed. Each district delegation, according to the rules of the convention, elected a dele- gate to the committee on platform. The| | committee as chosen is as follows: M. P. Scott, Twenty-eighth District; Thomas Twenty-ninth: John Grace, Thirtieth; rst; J. E. Gallagher, Thirty-second; J. E. A. Miller, Thirty-third; Joseph Engelberg, Thirty-fourth; George Giil, Thirty-fifth; H. M. Burnett, Thirty-sixth; H. B. Sister, ~Thirty-seventh; R. W. Roberts, Thirty-eighth; J.

The convention adjourned to meet to night, when nominations will be made. CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS. E. J. Livernash Is Named by Labor Trnion Party Delegates From the Fourth. After the adjournment of the Munici- pal Convention the delegates from the Fourth Congressional District immediate- ly met and formed themselves into a dis- trict convention for the purpose of nom- inating a candidate for Congress. John McLaughlin was elected chairman and Charles O'Connor secretary. T. E. Zant desired the delegates to postpone the naming of a Congressional candidate—m order that a more representative con- vention might be called. His wishes, however, were not heeded and nomina- | tions were declared in order. Hugh McKevitt took the platform, and in a short address placed E. J. Liver- nash in nomination. The nomination was seconded by Charles Melrose and Thomas Egan. As there were no other nominees, Livernash was declared the choice of the Labor party for Congress. Before adjourning, the convention in- vited Mayor Schmitz, who was present during the session, to address the dele- As the hour was late, the Mayor made a very brief speech.

REDDING, Sept. 12.—Angeleno Deber- nardl, a Swiss, aged 63 years, lay unaided all yesterday and last night beneath a lot of earth that pinioned the lower half of his body to the ground. When found to- gay he was dead. Not & bone was bro- ken. The man was employed at the brick sard two miles from Anderson. Wednes- ay wi “pay day,” and that night he went to town. The brick crew was not to have worked yesterday, so Debardino did not return until the early hours of the morning. Evidently he started to dig a hole in a bank of clay, in which to enjoy 2 cool rest. The earth caved, burying him to the waist. He was unable to extricate himself. His companions thought he was in _town and did not search for him. The unfortunate man iay there in the hot sun all day. Death probably came as a relief some time during the night. The awful struggles for liberty of the trapped man were plainly evident from the condi- tion of his body. SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Sept. 12.—The san- itary employes have strick work, the streets are not swept and no rubbish has been re- moved for two days. The city is In a filthy condition. The cause of the strike is that the men have not been paid for two months. L e e e e e e ol ) ister all who have not registered since January 1 of this year.

F. St. Sure, J. J. McDonald, J. E. Mc- Elroy, A. T. McDonough, J. H. Riley. Chairman McDonald appointed the follow- ing campaign and executive committes: John E. Geary of Haywards, A. B. Tar- pey of Alameda, W. B. Bosley, H. E. Harwood, J. C. Bullock, C. E. Abbott and A. T. McDonough of Oakland. Action on the resignation of David B.

DENVER, Sept. 12.—The Republican State Convention met here to-day, with not even the temporary chairman agreed on. The leading candidates for the guber- natorial nomination were James H. Brown of Denver and James H. Peabody of Canyon City, with several *‘dark horses,” including Frank C. Goudy, the candidate of two years ago, and John W. Springer, president of the National Igvfe Stotik As- tion, commanding good followings. So%fe convention, which consisted of 937 delegates, was called to order by State Chairman Fairly. “Parson Tom” TUzzell offered prayer and the names of Judge N. Walter Dickson of Pueblo and Dr. John Grass were presented for the temporary chairmanship. When the seconding speeches had been heard the sentiment seemed so strongly in favor of Dickson that Dr. Grass’ name was withdrawn and the selection of Dickson was made by ac- clamation. Judge Dickson pronounced an_eloquent eulogy upon the life of the late President McKinley and strongly indorsed the ad- ministration of President Roosevelt. His criticism of the present Democratic State administration was very bitter. The nomination of Congressman at large was the first order of business. Henry McAllister of El Paso County placed before the convention the name of Franklin Brooks of that county. There were no other candidates and the nomin- ation was made by acclamation. PEABODY FOR GOVERNOR. C. C. Dawson_of Fremont Countly named James H. Peabody of that county for Governor. At this point the conven- tion was given a surprise by the introduc- tion of James H. Brown of Denver, the leading opponent of Peabody, who an- nounced hi withdrawal from the race and seconded his nomination. He was followed by Frank C. Goudy of Denver and he by Samuel V.

Pardee, the popuiar and gifted native son of California, will speak with his usual frankness and courage to the' multitude at the Pavillon Monday evening. Dr. Pardee’s nomination for Governor on the Republican ticket is hailed with delight throughout the State. He is a Republican of the stalgvart type. He was Henry T. Gage's chie¥ opponent for the Republican gubernatorial nomina- tion four years ago. When the fortunes of battle in the_convention gave the vic- tory to Gage Pardee was the first to congratulate the victor. His frank and manly address to the assembled delegates won cheering enthusiasm. He pledged his best efforts for the success of the ticket in the campaign and kept the pledge to the letter and spirit. The young men of California are rallying to Pardee’s stand- ard. He is a true representative of the young and progressive Californians, and when he goes forth on his campaign tour to speak to the masses the greatest en- @ il il dedeelnlelde H-P{%%H‘P-}*H‘W"PH"]—FP-Z‘-ZW'? o S 2 2 20 3 2 2 e e Peabody. The nomination of Peabody was made by aclamation. For Secretary of State, James Cowie of Boulder County was named. There was no other candidate.- For_ State Auditor, the names of John Homberg of Denver and Mark G. Woodruff of Creede were presented, but Woodruff withdrew and Homberg was nominated unanimously. For State Treasurer, Whitney Newton of Pueblo and Horace de Long of Mesa County were named. It was the first time a roll call was had and Newton re- celved a large majority. At the evening sessfon N. C. Miller of Durango, A. R. Brown of Red Cliff gnd Milton R. Welch of Delta were nnmefl%r Attorney General. Miller was chosen by a vote of 561 to 236 for Welch and 139 for Brown. For the office of State Superin- tendent of Public Schools, Mrs. Anna B. Brandt of Cripple Creek was nominated unanimously. After the work of selection of a ticket had been completed the resolutions com- mittee made its report, which was adopt- ed. The platform reaffirms allegiance to the national platform of 1900; expresses sorrow for the death of President Mec- Kinley: indorses the policies of the na- tional administration, and says: “We follow confidently our brave and patriotic leader, the President, Theodore Roosevelt. We commend his fearless ac- tion in using every weapon at his com- mand in dealing with corporate abuses and we are in full sympathy with his de- mand for full powers and broader laws for the purpose of most effectively meet- ing with the questions which have arisen in connection with large consolidations of capital.” IRRIGATION LAW LAUDED. The President is given all praise for his efforts in_the irrigation law recently en- acted, and is pledged the support of Colo- rado for his re-election in 1904. The plat- form continues: “The Republican party of Colorado rec- ognizes in the growth of centralized pow- er an_evolution in business conditions which is the result of economic laws, but we recognize also that out of such con- solidation are arising questions of great moment, which must be faced and dealt with. We believe these questions should be solved along lines of regulation against abuses, and not by radical legislation de- structive of business interests.” The policy of the administration in the Philippines is indorsed and abuse of the army is resented. The platform condemns the Democratic State administration,>but favors the constitutional amendments submitted by the Democratic Legislature providln5 for the consolidation of the city of Denver and county of Arapahoe and an eight-hour law for miners and smelter employes, but condemns the sin- gle tax amendment. The removal of {l- legal fences from the public lands is de- manded, and a creditable display by the State at the St. Louis Exposition is fa- vored. After the adoption of the plat- form the conveltion adjourned. thusiasm will be awakened for Pardee and prosperity. J. N. Gillette, RepublicAn nominee for Congress in the First District, arrived in the city yesterday and heid a conference with the nominee for Governor at Repub- lican headquarters. Mr. <illette is an ac- tive campaigner and able public speaker. He is making preparations for a complete tour of the extensive district which em- braces the counties of Del Norte, Hum boldt, Siskiyou, Trinity, Tehama, Shasta, Modoc, Lassen, Plumas, Sierra, Nevada, Placer, El Dorado, Amador, Caiaveras, Alpine, Mono, Maripesa and Tuolumne. M. F. Tarpey, Democratic statesman, disciple of William J. Bryan, and pros- perous business man, has just returned from New York. At the Palace Hotel yesterday Mr. Tarpey spoke of the amaz- ing prosperitg of the United States. Never before in the history of the world, he re- marked, were the pecple so well fed, well clothed and so amply pald for their work. He said the prosperity of the East was simply marvelous; the enterprises of de- velopment were so great and the invest- ment of capital so enormous that people residing on this coast could hardly com- prehend the real facts. Mr. Tarpey may take a hand in politics before the cam- paign closes, but he says that his busi- ness interests will receive his main at- tention. INDORSE POLIG OF RODSEVELT Platform Is Adopted by Republicans of Nevada. RENO, Nev., Sept. 12.—The Republican State Convention was called to order to- day at 10 o’clock. Dr. L. L. Lee of Orms- by was elected temporary chairman and the usual committees were appointed. A telegram from Senator Kearns of Utah was read by Chairman Lee, as follows: My heartiest and most sincere congratul tions to the Republicans of Nevada. Am cor fident your work to-day will result in victory at the polls next November. The Republicans of TUtah, in convention yesterday, nominated a ticket which is certain to receive the largest Republican majority ever given in Utah and heartily indorsed President Roosevelt's admin- istration and pronounced for him in 1904 The report of the committee on platform was adopted. It reviews the national party achievemnts; indorses Hon. Thomas P. Hawley for the United States Senate; declares for the election of United States Senators by direct vote of the people; favors the largest use of silver as a money metal in all manners compatiblc with the best interests of our Govern- ment, and pledges the nominee for Con- gress to exercise his best éndeavors to se- cure the greatest possible use of silver; approves of the earnest efforts of the resent administration to enforce to the Pilicst extent possible the Sherman Ant trust law; favors labor unions and de- clares for an_ eight-hour law in mines, mills and smelting works; favors expan- sion; holds in undying honor the heroism and the sacrifices of the soldiers and sail- ors of the republic and denounces the Democratic party for the hostile spirit Shown toward the soldiers who are giving valorous service in the —swamps and jungles of the Philippines. The Republicans of Nevada uneompro- misingly favor the policy of protection to American industries and American labor. The platform denounces the repeal of the purity of elections law and demands its re- enactment; opposes lotteries and any con- stitutional amendment authorizing them; opposes legislation intended to decrease the rate of interest upon State lands; con. tulates the people of Nevada on enter- ng upon a revival of the mining interests of the State; favors the acquisition and l ATE TICKET AND THE PLATFORM OF THE PARTY United Republicans Discuss Their Plans for the Coming State and Municipal Campaiga. Committees Will Be Named in Various Districts and the Organization Wil Be Maintained. NITED Republican delegates to the municipal convention met in caucus at Shiels Hall last night. No attempt was made at count- ing noses or laying plans for the municipal convention. Numerous speeches were made, and the organization's intention to maintain its separate existence was emphasized. Henry J. Crocker presided. Edgar Peixotto introduced a resolution, which ‘was adopted by unanimous vote, indors- ing the State ticket and the State plat- form. Henry Ash retold the story of the for- mation of the United Republicans. He sald that headquarters would be main- tained, district rolls prepared by the sec- retary and a campaign committee ap- pointed in each district to work for the success of the State and municipal can- didates. He solicited the aid of the dele- gates in regard to the municipal ticket. Thomas D. Rlordan £aid that the mu- nicipal convention would be the most in- dependent of any held for many years past. He sald he had always belleved in home rule for the Assembly districts, and that the United Republicans were or- ganized on that principle. In that re- spect, he argued, Tammany was a model as a political organization. John Altken took occasion to de- nounce ‘“newspaper bosses.” Edgar Peixotto urged harmony and faithful . work for State and municipal tickets. A delegate from the Thirtieth District said he had a suggestion to make that was a pretty good idea. He favored a postponement of the municipal conven- tion, since a two months' campaign was toc long for a ticket of but ten nominees. Arthur G. Fisk was present, and though not a delegate was called upon, and he spoke briefly on the situation in the Thir- ty-seventh District. He said its delega- tion was independent and believed in hcme rule, and promised that the district ‘would give the largest Republican major- ity of any district in the city. Thomas Henderson, -chairman of the district dele- gation, also spoke. BOSSES NOT WANTED. James A. Wilson, secretary of the United Republicans, talked of the for- mation of the organization and its choice of a nal He sald that the intention was to diSpense with all bosses, and that as the members of the new organization had nearly all some time or other been tagged with the name of this or that boss it was determined to name their un- ion the United Republicans. Chairman Crocker said other assem~ blages of the sort would be held during the campaign to get the leaders from all the districts together, and he declared the meeting adjourned. Representatives were present from all the districts but the Twenty-eighth, For- ty-second, Forty-fourth and Forty-Afth. About a hundred delegates to the m»- nicipal convention were in attendarcé, and candidates were much in evidence. John C. Lynch was an interested auditor and was frequently in close consultation with Henry Ash and other leaders of the organization. SIG BETTMAN LOSES. Hamilton Bauer has won the nomina- tion for State Senator from the Twenty- second Senatorial District as against Sig Bettman. The delegates from the For- tieth Assembly District met last night at Franklip Hall and unanimously in- dorsed Bauer. Bettman's name was not mentioned. As the Thirty-ninth District has but 14 votes to the 22 of the Fortieth the action of last night is conclusive and makes Bauer’s nomination certain. The delegates of the Fortieth nomi- nated Leo H. Sussman for Assemblyman. They indorsed Judges Hunt, Cook and Hebbard for renomination; also Justices of the Peace Long, Daniels, Dunn and Joachimsen and for the fifth candidate J. J. Van Nostrand. Edgar Peixotto was made chairman of the delegation and Sol J. Levy secretary. The Forty-third Assembly District del- egation met last night In the Safe De- posit building and nominated W. H. R. McMartin for Assemblyman. James D. Brown was chosen as chairman and Oscar T. Barber as secretary. The present Su- perior Judges and Justices of the Peace were indorsed for renomination. R. Bruce McClellan was indorsed for Superior Judge and J. J. Van Nostrand for Justice of the Peace. The Thirty-seventh Assembly District delegation last night nominated Arthur G. Fisk for Assemblyman, and indorsed the present Republican Superior Judges and Justices of the Peace. The delegates from the Thirty-third and Thirty-fourth Assembly ~districts, com- prising the Twentieth Senatorial District, met at Duveneck's hall and nominated Frank French for Senator. The Thirty- fourth District delegates voted for As- semblyman. Of the eighteen delegates 16% votes were present. W. J. Gleason got 8% votes to 7 for W. H. Schooler and 1 for G. F. Alberti. The chairman de- clared Gleason nominated, but there is likely to be a contest, since it is contended by Schooler’s friends that a majority of the entire delegation is necessary for a choice. ENNIS MUST & 10 3N QUENTIN Supreme Court Affirms Judgment in the “Hog Case.” STOCKTON, Sept. 12—The Supreme Court to-day affirmed the judgment of the Superior, Court of this county in the case of Arthur Ennis, sentenced to five years in San Quentin for perjury in connection with the theft of a hog at Lodi last year. Ennis was also convicted of the theft of the hog and sentenced to serve six months, which sentence he completed and has been in jail here pending the appeal. The ‘‘hog case,” as it was called, at- tracted great attention throughout the county and its trial cost thousands of dol- lars “Jack” Stennett was acquitted, but later convicted of the theft of another hog, for which he served six months. Paul Davis got one year in San Quentin on the same case as Ennis and has served his time. Stennett turned State’s evi- dence against Ennis in the perjury case and also against his attorney, A. H. Car- penter,swho was convicted of subornation of perjury, though the Supreme Court re- versed the judgment. A suit for libel, growing out of the hog case, was instituted by Attorney Carpen- ter against District Attorney A. H. Ash- ley, for $25,000 damages. The ‘“hog gase™ was_the most costly criminal proceeding in the county’s history. SPA, Belgium, Sept. 12.—The condition of the Queen of the Belgians, who was seized with an attack of asthma vesterday, is serious to- day, but no immediate danger is apprehended. e o e e e e e e e o the exclusive control by the Government of the United States of Lake Tahoe and its basin, in order that no portion of its waters may be diverted from their na- tural channel;. opposes the pollution of the rivers of the State; denounces an- archy; “appeals with friendship to all and with malice toward none,” and earnestly invites all good citizens of Nevada to unite in the achievement of Republican upremacy. 'he committee on order of business and permanent organization asked for time until to-morrow morning at 9 o’clock to complete its labors. The convention then adjourned until that hour. FANOLS OREEON 5 COMING HOME Battleship Will Return to Harbor of San Francisco. SEATTLE, Sept. 12.—Captain Burwell, formerly commandant of the Puget Sound Navy Yard, but now captain of the bat- tleship Oregon, was in Seattle to-day tak- ing leave of his friends, as his ship will sail fo-morrow at 1 o’clock for San Fran- cisco. The Oregon has been at the Puget Sound Navy Yard for more than a year. She dropped anchor in the stream on July 7, 1901, and was there about the time the Rivers and Harbors Commission came out to the coast and decided on the needs of this section. The battleship had a practically new bottom and new deck put in at the navy yard, her repairs costing in the neighbor- hood of $500,000. She struck on the rocks in the Oriental seas and sustained serious damage to her bottom. She leaves the navy yard practically as good as when she started on her famous voyage around the Horn four years ago. Captain Burwell will take his ship to San Francisco for orders. It is not known pesitively where the ‘Oregon will be sent from that point, but the expectation is that she will go to China. thing of a positive nature being known of her future movements, it is generally un- derstood that the Oregon will not return to these waters—at least not for a long time. It would not be surprising if after finishing the China cruise the Oregon were! ordered to proceed to the Atlantie coast. Good Printing.
