DISTRICT ATTORNEY
For District Attorney S. r. Caldwell
nominated, in a laudatory speech, Matt F.
johnson Mr.. johnson came forward amidst
loud applause and Endorsed the platform,
saving he had not sought the nomination or
desired it, but yielded to the importantly of
friends and delegates, and believing it duty
to do the share of labor allotted to him for the
good of the party. The Democracy had
nominated him in times past when he asked
it, and he could not now refuse the demand of
the party upon him. If the Convention felt
that it was best to put mis- name on the ticket,
he had concluded it to be his duty to make
the canvass, though he was not physically or
financially able to make such a fight as should
be made. He had seen the Democracy of
Sacramento under far less favorable circum-
stances than now, triumph and he believed it
would this year.
On motion of j. A. Reavis Mr.. johnson
was nominated by reclamation.
