Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-08-23

THE Democratic County Convention,
by rising vote, just before it's adjourn
ment, condemned the fraud by which
General Vandever succeeded in being re-.
turned to Congress, and arraigned that
gentleman for the little interest he has
shown in advancing the concerns of his
constituents. That fraud had its origin
in the Office of County Clerk Dunsmoor,
who deliberately disfranchised one hum
dred and ninety-four voters after having
promised Lieutenant-G Governor White and
others to put their names on the Great
Register. People VINO believe in fair
play have double chance to rebuke
fraud; first, in voting for that gallant
young Democrat, Reel B. Terry, in whom
the Sixth District would have a valuable
and active representative in Congress
second, by voting against Dunsmoor,
who, though personally an amiable man,
prostituted his position to obtain an un-
fair advantage over his political op-
ponents. Many man who does not be-
lieve in political chicane will remember
this indefensible action Of Dunsmoor's
when it comes to voting. Of all Mr..
Dunsmoor's predecessors not one of them
dared to betray trust which he held
from the public, and which is one of the
most sacred that could be reposed in an
American citizen.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1888-08-23
A Solid Ticket and n winning one

solid Ticket ana winning Ohe'
In many successive issues Of the HER
AID between now and the 9th of Novem-
ber we shall have much to say OF the
individuals who compose the Democratic
ticket. In this article we propose to
treat it as whole. To begin with, the
Convention was the largest, the most
enthusiastic and the most entirely repre-.
sentative body of Democrats that ever
assembled in Los Angeles county. 1t
was pervaded by more entire confidence
in success than ever characterized any
similar body that recurs to our recol-
lection since the days when Demo-
cratic nomination was equivalent to an
election, at time when this was known
as the Democratic county par excellence
of California. The Republican Con-
yention had left the field open by
remarkably weak nominations-some OF
them so vulnerable as to insure defeat
even when the Republican waves were
running at flood tide. The universal re.
mark was, after the Republican County
Convention had done its work, that il
the Democrats would only put up good
men their victory was assured. 1t would
have been worse than judicial blindness
to have neglected such an opening, espe
cially in a Presidential year, when a
strong local ticket would help our ma
tional standardbearers. The Democratic
County Convention which adjourned yes
terday not only rose to the occasion, bu
they surpassed expectation. They moi
(only nominated strong, but superlatively
strong men. From top to bottom they
selected candidates who can assure to III
not only the party vote, but the votes o
multitudes Of Republicans. The Con
vention has removed all doubts as tt
how Los Angeles county will 60.
Democratic success in Los Angelo
county, which is now assured. means
Democratic victory in California.
