The con- vention promises to be the most im- portant ever held by the party in the State. A number of delegates arrived this evening and the rest of them are expected on the early trains in the morning. There are two candidates for Congressional honors in the Fifth Dis- trict. Dr. George B. Pratt of this city is the cholce of the delegates of this county and it is sald that San Fran- cisco will present the name of Robert | Thompson. A Both Candidates Confident of Saccess. SANTA CRUZ, Aug. 24.—The contest for the Republican nomination for Congress in the Eighth District will, in all probability, be fought to a finish in Santa Cruz. The two leading candi- dates—S. C. Smith of Kern and M. L. | ‘Ward of San Diego—are here and each is confident of success. As soon as the State Convention passes upon the cre- dentials of delegates the district con- vention meeting will be called. An ef- fort may be made to adjourn to some other time and place, but the principals (8 _delegates)—Thomas | assert to-night that they will not ask for postponement. 5 H. J. Meader, D.

Fire Commissioner Is a Candidate for Congressional Honors. SANTA CRUZ, Aug. 24.—There was considerable excitement when Abe Ruef arrived with his contingent on the 10:30 o'clock train and some whis- pering as to the part that he will play in the fight for Congress in the Fifth District. Ruef probably has a num- ber of strong cards up his sleeve to help strengthen some hand, but he will not play them before to-morrow morning unless an after midnight ses- sion gives him opportunity to show down part of his plans. Ruef sought a conference with the Hayes brothers soon after his arrival and there was some talk that a com- promise was likely to be effected before the day dawns, but this is not proba- ble. There also is talk that D. W. Burchard will be put in the field as a candidate if E. A. Hayes determines to eliminate himself from the contest. C. | M. Shortridge has a strong machine | following and his name may go before | the convention in opposition to Hayes. | J. George Boyne was not counted on as a candidate for office, but he sur- prised everybody by announcing him- self in line for the Congressional nom- ination in the Fourth District. That Boyne would consent to run against E. | J. Livernash seemed to puzzle most of | the delegates, but Boyne expressed sur- prise that the mention of his name would create such an impression. Boyne being a Fire Commissioner under the Schmitz administration led to the belief that he would under no circumstances fight the Democratic candidate, who has a labor following. The precipitation of Boyne's candi- dacy in the Fourth seems at this time to be premature. The district con- vention i8 not scheduled to meet until September 22, San Francisco being the place. About all that can be done here will be in the nature of agitation, the effect of which can only be deter- mined when the convention is call in session.

From the first vote to the last I will be in the fight, and if success does not crown my efforts it will be the last ballot in favor of the successful candidate that will stop me —not any combination or coalition, for I have not entered into one.” Oxnard, who is accompanied by L. W. and George Hatton, who has been watching out for his interests in the north, also denies the coalition story and says he is in town actuated by the same im- pulses that are responsible for the presence of Flint. He also asserts that he is in the fight to the finish, the dis- couragements he has met in the south in no wise dampening his ardor nor affecting his plan of campaign. Ox- nard asserts that he would not change the national legislature. Shortly after 2 o'clock E.h S.Cl\x:lt;:xe:n | , chairman of the Co e Sloca: o of the district, called e retu publican elec.
