Township offices also were chosen, with the excep- tion of a Supervisor in this district. Over this minor office a dead- ock has occurred and there is little pros- vect of breaking it. The convention was enthusiastic. Many places on the county ticket were filled by acclamation, but over others spirited contests resulted. This was particularly the case in the choice for Assemblyman and Coroner. The convention was called to order at 11 o'clock. E. H. McCarty was chosen tem- porary chairman and W. J. Martin secre- tary. After stating the object of the meeting the chairman appointed commit- tees as follows: Credentials, James 8. Hawkins chairman; platform and resolu- tions, E. D.

The platform of the State conven- tion and the entire State ticket were in- dorsed. Judge F. M. Angellotti, candidate for Assoclate Justice of the Supreme Court, received especial mention. When nominations for Assemblyman were called for three candidates appeared —H. C. Olmstead of San Rafael, J. A, Pis- tolesi of Sausalito and Willlam Brown of San Rafael. On the first ballot Olmstead 1eceived 41 votes, Pistoles| £nd Brown 6; necessary for choice, 4. On the sec- ond ballot Olmstead had 46, Pistolesi 36 and Brown 9 votes. Olmstead was de- clared the nominee. LENNON FOR SUPERIOR JUDGE. For Judge of the Superior Court Thomas J. Lennon was neminated by ac- clamation. In accepting the nomination Mr. Lennon said: I esteem it a great honor to receive at the hands of this Republican convention its unani- mous nomination for the office of Judge of the Superior Court of Marin County. It is a great re for me to come before you to give pledge of my loyalty to the Republican party, its principles, its platform, its nom- inees upon ‘the State ticket and its nominees upon_the local ticket which will be presented by fHis convention. The office for which I have so gen- erously recelved . your undivided indorse- ment 45 to my mind the- highest and _mcst honored in the gift of . the people of Marin County-—one worthy of any man’s ambition. I fully appreciate jts duties and. resvonsibilities, and if I am fortunate enough to be elected my greatest effort and proudest ambition will be to reach the high standard of excellence set by that noble Judge, Frank M. Angellotti, who has occupled th: place for twelve years, and who is soon to be elevated to a higher position of honor becauss he was an honest and upright Judge. While T am on that subject, let me say tc you, Rentlemen of this convention, that I am not now and I never was during the sixteer years of my professional life, under obligations 10 eny man or set of men, corporation or class of soclety, which would preclude me, if ele- vated to the bench, from doing my whole duty and nothing but my duty to the entire people at all times and under all circumstances. 1 promise you that I shall start out upon my campaign with no selfish purpdse of booming myself along, but I shall go forth upon the highways and byways of our county as a mis- sionary in the cause of Republicanism, spread- ing the gospel of Republican principies, upo which ever and always have been based the peace, happiness and prosperity of our people and the greatness of our nation at home and abroad. Gentlemen, I thank you with all my heart for, the great honor which you have conferred upon me to-day. BOYD FOR ATTORNEY. City Attorney Thomas P. Boyd was next chosen as a candidate for the office of District Attorney by acclamation. Amid continued cheering Boyd advanced to the platform and spoke as follows: Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the conven- tion—I thank ycu from the bottom of my heart honor you have just now conferred upon For many years it has been my ambition to occupy the office of District Attorney of Marin County, and by your nomination to-day I feel that I have been given a long and strong lift in that direction. This county is my birthplace, your schools my only houses of study and the city of San Rafael the scens of + My whole life has been passed in You, my friends and nelghbors, know my abilities and failings and are the best judges of my qualifications. By your action to- day you have assured the voters of Marin County that, in your opinion, I am fitted for the responsible post I seek to occupy. If elect- ed, I shall use every endeavor to prove that vour judgment is correct and your confidence has not been misplaced. Let me now in eloquent and beautiful language of your most worthy nominee for Superior Judge dssure you that during the ensuing campaign I shall labor my labors, your midst, unselfishly for the success of the whole Re- | publican ticket, both State and county. conclusfon I thank you, gentlemen.

The nominations for Supervisor in the Fifth District was made, but in the First istrict there is a deadlock. C. Pacheco is the candidate in the Fifth. In the First George M. Dodge and William Barr, the incumbent, have tied. Twenty-two bal- lots have been taken, resuiting in 5 votes for each aspirant. An adjournment was taken until to- morrow night, when the balloting will bo resumed. @ ittt e e e b e e @ champion of the cause against the A. P.

Delaney introduced a resolution in- tending to state the position of the Labor Party in regard to the offices for which they have nominated candidates, as a safeguard for the benefit of the party, foreseeing a possible question as to the legality of the Union Labor Party. An amendment to the resolution intend- ing to include among the offices for which the Labor Party has nominated candi~ Thirty-sixth, J. W. Mayder; dates a Railroad Commissioner and a member of the State Board of Equaliza- tion was defeated on the ground that it would bring the party into State politics, Wwhich it does not desire at this time. A committee of eighteen was appointed to sign a petition to the Secretary of State to place the Labor Party's ticket on the ballot, thereby preventing any dis- qualification of the party at the last mo- | ment, Wynn Again Nominated. W. J. Wynn was nominated a second time by the Fifth Congressional District Convention of the Infon Labor Party last evéning. This was done in order to obvi- ate any technicality in ‘the event of Wynn’s election. Tt appears that the gov- erning committee of the ~Union Labor Party ‘in_issuing its call for the Fifth Congressional District Convention set last night for the holding of the convention. A week ago Wynn was nominated, but to prevent any issue the formality was gone through with again. John Milmore was elected chairman and he called for nominations. Harry A. Knox took the platform and in an ~eulogistic speech nominated Mr. Wynn., There be- - ing no opposition the secretary wa: - structed to cast the vote of the eom l:» tion for the nominee. The chairman wa empowered to appoint a committee on purity of clections and a committee to fill vacancies. The co - o > convention then ad —_————— Rail Rates Reduced Via Santa Fe.

Margaret Mary O'Connor, who was left $500 by her grandfather, the late John Murphy, filed a contest to the will yes- terday.

Superintendent of Schools— No nomination, * = Not a Single Contest in the Democratic Convention. AN RAFAEL, Sept. 23.—The 1 Democrats of Marin County met in this city to-day to nom- nate a county ticket and town- ship officers. The convention was held In the opera-house. Sixty-elght delegates were present and the entire session was har- monious. There was no contest for any of the county offices, only one aspirant appearing for each position. No one was | put on the ticket for Sheriff, Assessor or | Superintendent of Schools. The convention was called to order at 1 o'clock by J. W. Cochrane. After a short speech temporary organization was perfected and committees were appointed. | Then the convention took a recess. On | reconvening, J. W. Cochrane was unani- | mously chosen for permanent chairman, George D. Shearer for secretary. The committee on platform and reso- lutions reported, indorsing in toto the platform of the State convention and pledging support to the emtire State tick- | et. The report was adopted. James H. Wilkins placed in nomination J. Emmett Hayden of San Rafael for the | Assembly. There was no opposition and Hayden was chosen by acclamation. James Keys, who has been an aspirant | for the office of Superior Judge, withdrew from the contest against Hugh J. Me- | Isaac, the present District Attorney, and | F. Dunand was indorsed for District At- | torney. E. J. Connell, the present Auditor !and Recorder, was renominated by - ac- clamation, as was Thomas J. Fallon, who | for the past four years has been County | Treasurer. | _For Coroner and Public Administrator | Dr. W. F. Wickman was nominated; for County Surveyor, A. D. Avery of Mill | Valley. R. W. Johnson was named for Su- pervisor of the First District. McNeil ot Tiburon was made the nominee for Coun- ty Clerk. Congratulations Not Appreciated. Dr. T. J. Crowley, president of the Municipal Non-Partisan League, is in re- ceipt of numerous congratulatory letters and dispatches from his many friends throughout the State on his appointment as an assistant physician at the Ukiah State Hospital for the Insane. The good intentions and kindly feelings of these numerous friends are thrown away, be- cause Dr, Crowley has received no gifts, nor does he seek any favors from Gov- ernor Gaie. He is content with his prac- tice and his drugstore at McAllister and Franklin streets. The Crowley who has been honored by Gage is a Democratic ex-Assemblyman from this city named J. J. Crowley, who was useful to Gage while the session of the Legislature lasted, and who is rewarded accordingly, {made the speech placing Mclsaac in nomination for the judgeship. Melsaac: | received unanimous indorsement. TLouis b LAST HOUR FOR VOTERS TO ENROLL | Registration Closes at the City Hall To-Night. Sacramento to Greet the Republican Nominee. ITIZENS of Sacramento will assemble this evening to see and hear Dr. George C. Pardee, the Republican nomines for Governor of California. The gifted and popular native son who bears the standard of his arty in this campaign will leave Oak- lpanflyon the Overland Limited this fore- noon and arrive at the capital of the State carly in the afternoon. The nomines will not deliver an extended or elaborate ad- dress, but will speak frankly and intelli- gently to his fellowmen and define his position so clearly that every ome will comprehend his meaning. Dr. Pardee is not a smooth, oily politician who has made campalgn gab a life study, but is a sincere, manly man of courage and dig- nity, and as such commands’the respect and confidence of the plain people. On his trip to Sacramento he will be accompa- nied by J. O. Hayes of Santa Clara and the well-known orator, D. E. McKinlay. Dr. Pardee will begin his campaign in the south at San Diego mext Friday cvening. At Los Angeles next Saturday evening he will speak to a multitude of his fellow Californigns. Although not a “gpell binder” in the accepted sense of the term, Dr. Pardee is a ready cam- paigner. He has a wide acquaintance in the State, as he was born and reared in California. His southern trip will extend his acquaintance to the new settlers who have done so much to promote the pros- perity of the Golden State. The Republican State Central Commit- tee is In rececipt of gratifying reports from the interior. There is nothing in the city situation to cause appréhension. Sac- ramento is the only county in the State reported as indifferent or apathetic, and there are indications that the indifference and apathy will not last throughout the campalgn. There is talk that SBan Joaquin County is in the contest for the banner. Politicians, however, predict that Los An- geles will capture the trophy by rolling up an unprecedented majority fof the Re- publican ticket. Registration for the coming election will approximate 71,000. Yesterday 2786 voters registered, making the total number en- rolled to date 67,94 As the main office will be open to-day from 8:30 a. m. until midnight it is highly probable that 3000 more names will be added to the list of the registered. This {3 positively the last day of registration and nominees of every party, and particularly the candidates on the Republican legislative, Congressional and judicial tickets should urge all their unregistered fellow men to get on the roll of voters. The San Francisco registration for the Presidential election of 1900 was 73,912. At that election the number of votes cast was 65,61. It appears that 3301 voters of the city failed to vote. - Assuming that an equal number will fafl to vote this year and that the registration will reach 71,000, it is estimated that the city vote on No- vember 4 next wi roximate 62,699, The total vote Francisco for Governor four year§ azo was 54,372, of which Gage secured 18, Maguire 24,632, Harriman 1388, and McComas 134, CAMPAIGN INCIDENT. The campaign on the water front is not dull or devoid of humorous phases. A day or two ago word was passed around that money to sustain the Republican contest would be acceptable. No asses ments were levied, and no threats were made to punish non-contributors, but the lucky mortals who are drawing down good salaries under a Republican admi istration were invited to contribute to the Republican campaign fund. Tt was in- timated that a half-month’s pay from each would be regarded as a genero offering. Among the first of the office- holders to respond nobly was the chief of the “Ole Bills''—Bill English, Demo- cratic secretary of the Board of Harbor Commissioners. Next on the list of ready-givers was *“Ole” Percy Hender- son, the Democratic Chief Wharfin . Early in the month of September Bill" English was at Sacramento sway- ing the destinies of the Democratic party and crying aloud for the nomination of Tom Geary_to lead the legions of the unterrified Democracy. Now comes the cheering intelligence that this sterling Democrat of the water front is a generous siver to the Pardee fund. The example afforded by English is worthy of emula- tion. Other Democrats who are enjoying the blessing of Republican prosperity should follow in the path blazed by the boss of the “Ole Bills.” Democratic Meetings. The Democratic campalgn committes has arranged meetings throughout the State for next Saturday night. They are as follows: Eureka, Thomas J. Geary: Ukiah, Theodore A. Bell and J. B. Sanford: Napa, Frank I Gould; Auburn, Thomas S. Ford, W. A. Gett and Willlam M. ‘Gibson; Sacramento, James V. Coleman: Vallejo, T. F. Barry and T. W Hickey: Redwood City, S. V. Costello and T M. O'Conmor: Oakdale, Gaston M. Ashe; Ven- tura, Franklin_ K. Lane; Red Bluff, Seth Mann; Colusa, W. H. Alford. ADVERTISEMENTS. VALUE OF TESTIMONY Greater Than Assertion. There is nonme of us so hardened but that when we have been able to aid our {ellow creatures by conferring a benefit or bringing a little comfort into their lives we like to have appreciation shewn. This senerally affords more pleasure than the performance of the act itself, and in this connection the following letter from a Paris, Texas, lady is of more than usual interest: “Dear Friends: I address you as such, for you have been such to me. [ suffered for three years off and on with viles. I was treated at the hospital, and the new and elegant hospital, of Mem- phis; they only gave me temporary relief. I came west, thinking the¢ change of air and water. would benefit me: five months ago the bleeding piles. came back on me ‘znd bled so much that I thought I would die. I have had four of the finest doctors ir this section of Texas; all they did was to finally nearly let me go to my grave; all they wanted was a big sum of money from me and to operate on me. I said no, no surgeon’'s knife would enter me; if it was my time to die God knew it, and when I died I would die altogether. I be- gan hearing about your medieine. .I had no faith in you, but I sent and got a box of your Pyramid Pile Cure; In two days the blood flow had stackened to one-half the amount and in one-week I feit so much better T walked four blocks and il a little housework. ' I was not bleeding then; in three weeks I ‘was well. God Sless you for putting such a wonderful medicine within the reach of suffering men and women. I-shall never cease t— recommend your medicine or_be withoul it; also I used your Pyramid Piils. Sallie A. Hearndon.” . Teéstimony like this should be more convincing than all claims and assertions and should leave no doukt in the mind of the reader as-to the merit of the remedy. Pyramid Pile Cure is sola by druggists for fifty cents a package, o will be mailed by the makers to any ad- dress_upon receipt of price. Write Pyra- mid Drug Co., Marshall, Mich., for their book on cause and cure of piles.
