On motion of John Brown Mr. Chin
was unanimously nominated.
Mr. Chin rendered his acknowledge
ment neatly but briefly.
Mr. Mitchell nominated E. W. Maslin,
of Grass Valley. Mr. Bourke nomina-
ted John l. Caldwell of Nevada. Geo
A. Young nominated III. NJ Moore of
Eureka, for the office of District Attor-
ney.
Mr. Young made speech in favor of
Moore, in which the bitterness of defeat
was more than expressed. He called
upon every one of his friends to support
Mr. Moore. -.-... ....
Mr. Dibble spoke of the propriety of
nominating Mr. Maslin, but ended in
withdrawing his name.
Mr. Mitchell urged that Mr. Maslin' S
name be not Withdrawn. II.
Mr. Watt said he bad asked Mr. Maslin
to withdraw because he saw desire ON
the part of some to see him put up to
be beaten. He had voted thus far in
the Convention as he d--n pleased and
if anybody didn't like it they might
lump it.
Mr. Meredith spoke in favor Of Moore
and made some disparaging remarks
about Grass Valley, He said that plac e
had already a prominent man ON the
state ticket. That town had the control
of the state funds and intimated that was
sufficient to satisfy them. He said they
ought not to overlook the claims of
the ridge which as yet had received lit
tie from the Democratic party.
Mr. G. Knight retorted on Meredith in
a speech of pith and point. lie said
Mr. Fipdley did not receive his nomina>
ton by the emagnanimity of Meredith and
his friends. If he had read the procee-
dings Of the State Convention correctly
but two delegates from Nevada cast
their votes for Findley and he had been
Informed that Meredith used his inhu-
ence to change those votes.
Mr. Meredith promptly denied that he
had so done.
Mr. Knight continued saying that the
course pursued by certain gentlemen
had induced him to believe they had
gone to that extent. He charged that
men had been governed unworthily by
feelings Of rev enge in their course in the
convention.
Roll called with the following result !:
Maslin.
Caldwell. .25
Second Ballot.
Mr.. Moore took the floor and spoke of
his having been urged to have his claims
presented to the convention by infuen-
tial men in different parts of the county
on which he relied, but that he had ask
ed no one TO vote for him. His circum-
stances had changed since morning.
Mr.. Chin his immediate nerghbor, had
been nominated for Treasurer. The
claims OF the ridge had thus been satisfied
to some extent. and he would withdraw
in favor of Mr.Maslin and recommended
Mr.. NJ. to the convention.
Mr.. Caldwell Came forward and com>
planned of the course of Mr.. Moore with
drawing in favor of Maslin.
Some disputatory remarks between
Moore and Caldwell here occurred.
Mr.. Maslin wes nominated and deela-
red the unanimous nominee Of the con-
vention for District Attorney.
Mr., Maslin returned his thanks TO the
in a neat and pertinent
speech.
An attempt was made here to adjourn
without success.
Mr.. Burke nominated F. Caldwell of
Little York. Bate Henry nominated Sam

The speech of Mr. Broderick left a
good impression upon the minds of his
audience. He was frequently applauded
in the course of his remarks. Broderick

no public man has received from our
citizens more hattering attentions, or

McKibben, in obedience to calls came
forward and addressed the crowd, deliv-
