When the First District reported +. I
Burke filed protest against the selection o
Henry Grice. because he resides in the Thir,
snd not the First District.
John Toomey moved to lay the protest OF
the table, and he said the matter should g,
before the State Convention. The motion
to lay on the table prevailed.
On motion of G. Wells, the Convention
indorsed and confirmed the delegates from
the First.
The Convention indorsed the names of al
the delegates as reported.
The Convention at $50 adjourned sine die
after voting its thanks to its officers.
OF course the result of the Convention ha:
significance as determining the attitude Of
Sacramento county as to various aspiranti
for places on the Democratic State ticket
The contest over the one delegate at large
was the only opportunity afforded for arriv.
ing at tbs preferences of the entire body.
Fourteen of the delegates were chosen by the
Supervisor districts acting separately. But
GlS FOLe Ior LIE ueleSAle at large revealed The
temper of the entire body The candidates
were R. ID. Stephens and Add. G. Hinkson,
both popular leaders of the Democracy. 1t
was alleged that Stephens was openly for
Clay W. Taylor, of Shasta, for Governor
that he was opposed to Hearst or johnson for
that Office. With this understanding, his de-
cisive majority would indicate the preference
of the Convention as favorable to the aspira-
tions of Mr.. Taylor. Mr.. Stephens in his
speech, however, declared himself in favor of
Taylor, Robert Watt, 10 Hamilton or ary
strengthening Democrat. Mr. Stephens
candidacy for Controller was of course well un.
derstood, and his selection by the Convention
is accepted as an unmistakable declaration in
his favor. The delegation is also understood
to be solid for j. w. Armstrong for Supreme
Judge. The result is accepted by all as salts
factory, and the delegation will, from present
indications, act solidly and harmoniously for
all the favorites of this section.
METROPOLITAN THEATER.-" Interviews -
was presented by the Milton Mobiles troupe
last evening. 1t is keen satire on the
American political methods, and an exag-
gersted sketch of Bohemian life, but never
theless full of truths about it. 1t has charm.
ing dialogue, with only the apology of plot.
1t is from the pen of Mr.. Mobiles, and proves
him to be a keen observer, a man of native
talent and possessed of some rare qualities of
wit and a most merry sense of humor. His
scenes in the editorial rooms of a sensational
newspaper, while very broad-very indeed
had a well-defned vein of truth in them
The composition of the play is far more cred.
liable to Mr.. Mobiles than the acting in it.
The troupe is good one and well balanced,
and every member is competent. Some are
very versatile people among these are
Alonzo Schwartz. who in Jewish character
acting is probably unequaled. He will give a
specimen of his style to. night in Mobiles play
of phoenix" Mr.. Mobiles in this latter
play has made his greatest success. He is
melodramatic actor of much power, and in
the Phoenix" works that vein for all it is
worth. Interviews will be played at the
matinee to-day. The company closes its en-
gagement tonight.
