REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION
OF ALAMEDA COUNTY.

The Republican County Conven.
ton Of Alameda county Mas held al
Germania Hall, Webster street, Oak.
land, last Monday. w. wv. Cameron
Of the Second Ward was chosen
Chairman, and @. M. Plumb, j. NJ.
y. Kane, J. i. Warmsley, George
Oaks, and A. J. Kelly were elected
Secretaries All the wards in the
city and the outside townships were
fully represented, and after the usual
preliminary work the convention got
down to business and completed the
work allotted to it in short order.
10 say that the nominations made
pleased every body, would be saying
what was not SO, for there we're many
who were disappointed il not re-
ceiving the nominations they were
working for, and many friends to
these same parties, who were also
anxious to see them get the nomina-
tions, were much displeased when
they found some one else received
them. But there had to be some
one disappointed where there were
50 many candidates in the field for
the several nominations; and as they
were not enough to 60 around, it
was just as we'll for those Who did
get disappointed to have been SO as
anyone else.
But The ELEVATOR has no reason
to feel sore over the result Of the
work of the convention, but on the
contrary has reason to feel proud, for
out Of the eight nominees indorsed by
HE ELEVATOR and recommended to
the convention as its choice for the
following nominations-County Re
cOrder, Rod w. Church; Public Ad-
ministrator, James Stanley Sheriff, |
w. p. Hale; District Attorney, Geo.
W. Reed State Senator from the
Seventeenth Senatorial District, w.
u. Dargie; Assemblyman from the
Fifty-hfth District, M. @. Chapman;
County Clerk, Chas. L. Boardman;
Tax Collector, r. r.. Borein- seven
Of them were nominated, leaving
only one out Of that number, Mr.. p.
X. BoreiD for Tax Collector, who did
not receive the nomination.
While it is fact that the powers
that be refused to give the $50 col
ored voters in that county a repre-
sentatlon from any Of the wards in
the city Or outside townships in the
convention, still The ELEVATOR feels
that it should say to the convention
