THE CONVENTION.
Arrangements Forging
Ahead Successfully.
DECLINATION OF HON. L. ]. ROSE
To Accept the Nomination for the
Assembly-0ther Interesting
Matters.


for the State Convention was busy al
day yesterday in it's endeavor to com
plete all the preliminaries before tn
arrival of the majority Of the dele
gates. Last night Mr.. Sidney La
cey, and Captain Barrett, who hav'
been the most active members of th,
Committee and who have done mos
all of the work, reported that every
thing was satisfactory and that the
preliminary arrangements were SO fai
completed that they might perhaps
be able to.take few moments rest
Mr.. j. j. Flynn and Mr.. Geo. w. Kel
ley were also busy all day Ion
but they reported that they found
the arrangements sofar ahead Of those
on any previous occasion that the
labor was more pleasant than other
wise. The principal business Of the
day was the selecting OF suitable
rooms for the various delegations
which are to arrive to-day and to-
morrow. A few arrived yesterday
and were comfortably placed in the
hotels. Afterwards they were shown
about the city and in the evening
they gathered at the Nadeau, where
they discussed the various matters to
be considered at the Convention. 1t
was too early in the campaign to de-
termine as to who will be selected as
Chairman OF the Convention, but it
was asconsidered on all sides that the
choice is between Lieutenant-Go
nor s.. M. White and Hon. w. d.
English, Chairman of the State Central
Committee. Friends OF both gentlemen
are hard at work in the interest of
their principals. The Secretaryship
appears to be desired by two only.
Mr.. George w. Kelly and M. F. Dun
leavy, with Mr.. Kelly apparently in
the lead.
1t was announced last night that
Hon. L. j. Rose had declined the
nomination for the Assembly from
this district, and this will be great
surprise to those who have been work
ing for him. His letter OF declina-
ton will be found in another column.
The flowers at the Pavilion were
put in place yesterday, and the huge
banks of the choicest flowers of
Southern California, in conjunction
with the bright bunting, gave the
vast hall more inviting appearance
than it has ever worn before, and
great credi; is due those who have
had the decora' ing in charge.
Badges have been printed on silk
for the members of the press, and
arrangements have been completed
for the entertainment OF the gentle
men who are expected to visit this
city. The names OF but few Of those
assigned to this work are known as
yet. but in all probability they will all
be on the ground by tomorrow night.
