FORCIBLY EJECTS GOLDEN Justice of the by Supervisors Appeintee of Governor Pardee | Sadeper SCENE A DISGRACEFUL ONE P (R Mayor’s Choice in Three-Cor- nered Fight Makes No Move to Establish His Legal Rights el Peace Named | Dispossesses | The Justice of the Peace imbroglio, in which the Mayor and Board Supervisors have all.taken a hand, reached an unpleasant climax vesterday in a disgraceful scene in which Walter E. Dorn, the Supervisors’ | appointee, foreibly ejected Isidore Gold- en, the Governor's selection, from the courtroom formerly occupled by ex- Justice of the Peace Long, which Gold- en had taken peaceable possession of on the day previous. € Governor, of Dorn got up before Golden, and when the latter appeared in the courtroom | he found Dorn in possession. Dorn had ! taken the precaution to put an-| other lock on the door to which he’ alone had the key. Dorn informed Golden thdt he (Dorn) was the legal appointee to the office and ordered him Golden refused, and thereupon, sted by R. W. Stm his attorney, a deputy fn City | Attorney Lane's office, Dorn pounced on | Golden and hustled him from the room. Golden left vowing vengeance, say ing that he would open a courtrcom in the office of the Justices’ clerk. Dorn herenpon sent for the police, and two and | officers patrolled_the corridor in front of the courtroom during the day. | What adds to the complication engen-'{ dered by the appeintment of three men to one office, the Mayor having named Walter Gallagher, is that presiding Jus- tice of the Peace Van Nostrand recog- nizes Golden as the lesal Justice of the Peace. Van Nostrand says that he will assign no cases to Dorn or Gallagher, and the entanglement will not be settled until the courts, finally | ¥ ss on the matter. Gallagher has made no Attempt to take the office. but may serve Dorn as | the latter served Golden by breaking in the courtroom before Dorn arises to- morrow morning.

J. and mith, A. Dalton Harrison and Wrigh gaging the attention of the Call(ornla‘v Congressional delegation. Senator Per- | kins has recommended Willlam C. Ralston for the office and Senator Bard has declared in favor of William M.| Cutter. | The activity of the aspirants and the | interest displayed by the delegation do not disturb the -equanimity of Colonel | John P. Irish. Each of the aspiring Republicans entertains the hope that|; Colonel Irish will be tempted to resig: by the offer of a very lucrative salary in another field of enterprise. It is re-| ported that the colonel has Bdflsed\ both Senators Cutter and Ralston to | place their respective indorsements on| file. According to the gossip in the po-l litical camps the advice has been ac-| cepted. Men eminent in financial and mercantile circles testify to the worth || | and capability of Senator Ralston. | Ofhers equally prominent in the busi- | ness world indorse Senator Cutter as*l a man of high character and excep-| tional fitness. It is said that names of | leading Republicans in every county of | the State may be found on the ptll-i tions. The incident comes to light that fien- ator Ralston was recommended to the | President before former Congre!smsn’ ‘Woods withdrew from the contest. | Some of the politicians are circul.tlng‘ the report that one of the members of our delegation in Congress openly sup- | ported one aspirant while he smetw" espoused the cause of another. Other | politicians insist that there was no{hlns more than a trivial mistake. | It is claimed that the entire delega- tion was solid for Woods and that the indorsement of another was filed with | the understanding that it was not to be ! considered as long as Woods was in the | fleld. l An old tlmer in the ranks of the party made this comment on the topic at the | ADVF.BTISE“NTS.

Such political tac-| tics may be countenanced by raw East- crners, but our Congressmen fight in the open. 1t is all right for a ‘member | of Congress to send to the President all | the recommendations he receives.
