THE DESiOCi

THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION CT CALIFORNIA.
SACRAMENTO, July 3.-On the rtassem-
bling OF The Democratic Convention yester-
day evening a resolution was offered that
with the exception OF Governor and judi
ciary no candidate OF any other State con-
ycntion will he endorsed. This created q
! long and heated discussion, during winch
the fact was developed that delegates from
| San Francisco and Sacramento bad been
| holding q conference with the managers OF
| - Honorable Bilks," with Il view OF pro-
curing the endorsement OF Honorable
| BikS's" tickets, on which are many Re-
publcans. 1t was strongly argued by
| friends Of the fusion that on account Of de-
| sertions from the Democratic ranks the
! only possible chance OF success lay in Il CO.
alition. The opponents denounced it as an
attempt 10 sell out the party TO (" Honorable
Bilks." Pending the roll-call a telegram
| from Dir. Glenn accepting the nomination
for Governor was read. The roll-call re.
suited in the adoption OF the resolution by
q vote OF 19S to I4S. Cheers and confusion
followed.
Mr.. Sullivan, OF San Francisco, objected
! 10 putting up Democrats to be sacrificed.
| and moved IN Adjournment sine de, amid
| Il babel OF cries.
Another delegate charged Fowler, Of Tu-
! lare, Win saying lie "ouiu Eote anu WI n
for the Republican candidate, and accused
| him OF selling ont to the railroads.
The nproar WAS then doubled, and Mr..
Fowler attempted 10 reach his accuscr, but
was seized by Governor Irwin and OTHERS.
| For 4 few moments Il general row was
imminent. Order WAS finally restored.
The motion TO adjourn was voted down,
| and The Convention proceeded to nominate
! 4 Licutenant-Go Governor.
J. D. Lynch, OF Los Angeles; Thomas
Fowler, OF Tu!are; and Levi Chase, OF San
| Diego, were proposed. The latter WAS nom
mated on the first ballot.
Another motion to adjourn was lost.
For Secretary Of State, W. }. llnnIn, OF
Trinity, was nominated by acelamatioD,
Thomas Beck, the present incumbent de-
Ginning denominations.
The Convention then adjourned until to-
day. .-.... -
