Clans Yesterday.
LIST OF STATE DELEGATES.
Col. H. H. Boyce Makes Himself
Felt-The County Central
Committee Organized.

the purpose OF selecting delegates to thu
State Convention and appointing
County Central Committee to serve TO-
two years. The body was certainly rep
rosentative SO far as wealth, socis
position, seini-religious respectaoilit,
and overstrained politeness was con
cerned, but there was woeful lack o
representation on the part OF the ran'
and file, 1.-THE wool hat and one gallu
fellows" who do all the voting ane
labor night and day out Of pure love o
the @. o. P. A man who had seen som'
campaigns in Los Angeles county looket
around for beaoonlight in the shape O.
one Of the old time solid workers and
behold, only the manly form Of Suther
land Hutton doomed up. Col. Walter
Moore, even, the man who has fought
hundred stubborn battles, was not .
delegate but, arrayed in uniform
which was a cross between chief Of
the South Pacific Islands and g. A. r.
private. he eirculated numerOusiy and
tried to create the impression that he
had an interest in the Convention. II
was all in vain, however. Rev. DR..
Sinsabaugh, the leader Of the Fifth
Ward delegation, darted severe look at
Walter and whatever of unseemly levity
that young man contained within his
breast was withered as il by blighting
frost. and he retired to seat in the
back part Of the hall. The spectators
were limited to thirteen gentlemen in
the gallery and three on the aoor. This
is by actual count.) There was an air
Of sedateness about the assemblage that
indicated cut and dried programme.
At IL o'clock Mr.. h. A. Barclay,
Chairman Of the County Central Com
mittee, arose, and folding his hands,
started to say Let us engage in
PRAYER" but changed it to "The Con-
yention ia called to order" Mr.. Barclay
stated the objects of the Convention
and returned thanks to his conductors
who had 30 ably assisted him in the last
campaign, and hoped that in the form
alton OF q new County Central Commit

selected. Mr.. Barclay, in his speech,
approved himself as single hearted in his
desire for Republican success and his
speech, filed with good advice, was re-
ceived with applause.
The Secretary, Mr.. j. NJ. Quinn, then
read the call for the Convention.
Chairman Barclay announced that the
first order Of business would be the
