drous stream of life that rises in world
unknown and flows to that mysterious

Garfield's SONS.

James A. Garfield has been spending
a few days in this city, having come
upon a triple mission. He grows to re-
semble his father physically, as he is
said to do Intellectually, more than any
Of the other children. The resemblance,
however, is not SO apparent when he is
obliged to use his eyes closely, because
he has been compelled to wear specta
cles. With his brother Harry he has es-
tablished law business in Cleveland,
and If the clients are all Of them men
and corporations Of such consequence as
those whose interests compelled him in
part to visit this city the Garfield boys
have certainly done amazingly WE'LL

tion, and soon after reaching his majority
entered the army as private in the Thirty
second Wisconsin Infantry. He was IN
many battles in the West and was with
Sherman in his famous march to the sea.
He was commissioned Colonel, was wound
ed, aud in June, 1865, honorably discharged.
On his recovery he practiced law in Mill
waukee until 1879, when he removed TO Pas
adena, Los Angeles County. On November
4, 1884, he was elected to Congress from
district comprising fourteen of the southern
counties, and received II, ,397 votes to 1890
for r. f. Del Vale, Democrat; 81 for
Gould, Prohibition, and 236 for Kinley,
Green back.
He was unanimously renominated In 1886,
and the convention adjourned for two days
to give his friends an opportunity TO urge
him to accept, but the climate Of the East
had aggravated the old trouble from his
wound and he declined to return to wash
ington. Since that time he has been act
lively engaged in business, being President
of the Los Angeles Furniture Company,
Director of the Los Angeles National Bank.
San Gabriel Valley Bank and the Oil sup
ply Company of Southern California, and
associated in various enterprises to develop
the natural resources OF his part OF the
State.
While in Congress Colonel Markham was
on the River and Harbor Committee and
was instrumental in obtaining approprla-
tions for the improvement OF California
rivers and ports. He was very active and
diligent and accomplished "a great deal
during his one term in the House.
Colonel Markham is democratic in his
habits, easy of approach and skillful
manager in political campaign. The
State Central Committee refused 10 aid him
in his canvass in 1884, considering the dis
trict hopeless. He managed his own cam
paign, and to the surprise of every one, de-
feated a very strong opponent.
Colonel Markham is feet l inch in
height, and weighs over 200 pounds. His
friends are warmly attached TO him, and
have the utmost faith in his ability TO make
the best possible fight as tie leader of the
Republican party in the coming campaign.

WILSON GETS MIXED UP.
Clark of YOlo and j. n. Z. Wilson OF
San Francisco also seconded the nominal
tion of Morrow. The latter got himself
into a slight tangle when be said: We
do not claim that the man we present here
is soldier, nor do we claim that lie
saturated the soil of the Solid South with
his blood. In fact we don't think lie has
enough blood TO do that, or that any man
except the gentleman from Los Angeles
has blood enough for that" Kisses greeted
him from every side, but to the credit OF
the Los Angeles delegates they remained
silent.
Judge Dibble of San Francisco and
George Maxwell also seconded Morrow,
while sam ShOrtridge did q similar service
for Markham. Eagan of Amador seconded
Shippee, as did Levenski of San Joaquin,

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 13.-The grest battle
has been fought and won, and Colonel
Henry II. Markham has been chosen to lead
the Republicans in the coming campaign.
a prettier fight has never been seen in Cal
fornia. and now that it is over, the predic-
tions of THE CALL have been completely
yindicated. Colonel Markham's managers
have proved themselves shrewd politi-
clans in every sense Of the word.
They have not missed trick and have
landed their man at the head of the ticket
with ease.
When the time for the meeting of the con-
vention approached it was evident that the
Markham men were gaining ground, and
that, barring accidents. the Los Angeles
man would be nominated sure. All the
previous night and during the early hours
of the morning his strength had been grow
ing rapidly, and north and south delegates
were falling into line for him.
BORE ITS FRUIT.
The article which had appeared in the
Record Union attacking him had its legiti-
uldLG GutCtf hLu udu IdlllEN 10 Ills support
wayering delegates in every direction.
Throughout the fight Markham and his fol-
lowers had maintained a dignifed silence,
-stsd While attacked by their opponents had
studiuusly refrained from say ing aught that
could be construed into an attack on Mr..
Morrow. This had won for them a host Of
friends who admired their tactics, and the
consequence was that the Morrow men,
while claiming last night that the attacks
W ere not countenanced by them, succeeded
in stopping them. The result was that SEN
timent .crystallized with great rapidity, and
by the time the convention was called to
order it looked as if Markham could not be
beaten.
THE SAN FRANCISCO DELEG ALTON.
Phil Crinmins had had an animated con-
YeIsation with Major Dan Burns in which
the latter asked Phil to keep his hands off
the Governors fight. What PhiPs reply
was is not known, but 1t is understood that
he said he could not ask his men to vote for
Markham.
That they did not do so is shown by the
result Of the San Francisco vote on the first
ballot when "a votes were cast for Morrow
and ~ for Markham before any changes
were made. They Immediately saw the
error of their ways, however. and when
the scramble began they soon fell into line,
and General Dimond moved that 1t be
made unanimous. They saw that the
wagon was ready to start and they were
Here was where Crimmins showed long
head and saved his distance in good shape.
AS it now stands he is stronger than before.

That Is Where Markham has His Certifi-

Archibald Forbes, a cousin to the late war cor
respondent of the same name was the center of
a small crowd at the Republican County Com
mittee headquarters last night. He looked as
happy as flower garden In Alameda and was as
enthusiastic as his companions over Markhsm's
nomination.
S. j. Whitney asserted boldly that "Markham
has The certificate OF office in his hands,"
A. A. Watson followed with the remark That
+" Mark ham suits the people OF San francisco
much more so than MorTOW would"
Then another man allowed grim smile to play
upon his features as he Withdrew his gaze from
tile Chronicle Building and said: "What an
awful ehump Mike de Young has made OF HIM

mated and lie has made as big donkey OF him.

THE RECORD-UNION.
a Strong Endorsement of the Nomination of
Colonel Markham.

Colonel Markham.
SACRAMENTO, Aug. 13.-The Record
Union will tomorrow morning editorially
say that the Republican Convention is an
independent. intelligent and thoroughly
representative body; that in recognizing
Southern California, it has done well and
that ii. Fl. Markham will be triumphantly
elected. 1t takes occasion to express its
disapproval of campaign SANDER as
method to defeat the ambition
of a candidate for nomination.
1t pronounces such methods as were
employed to defeat Markham as dis
reputable and vile. and says that all
such assaults have no effect with
the people and always recoil upon
those who employ them. 1t COM
mends the nomination of Mark
ham because he comes up indorsed
by the people among whom he
lives and who know him, and because he
has the capacity to make good Governor
and is put forward by such notably strong
and independent convention.

THE CONVENTION.
how ths Nomination Of Markham Was N lde
Snrs.

Sure.
SACRAMENTO, Aug. 13.-When Chairman
Campbel's gavel fell for order al 10 o'clock
promptly, the largeA ssembly hall was
jammed in every part, and even standing
room was at discount. The galleries were
packed TO suffocation, and many ladies were
to be seen among the spectators. The
Southern men we're on the alert and pre-
sented a solid front, as was shown by the
cheers when things went their way. There
was no friction at any time, however, and
the bitterness which had characterized the
struggle seemed to have disappeared.
Everybody looked pleasant, and in spite
of the oppressive heat, the delegates beamed
with good nature. 1t was evident that
something had been done to remove the
discord, and the programme of organization
which had been agreed on at the conference
WasIcarred out smoothly.
LIGHTS OF THE CONVENTION.
No objection was made at any time and
even KOwalsky forgot for the time being
Buckley banquets and Jessup decisions.
He famed himself complacently and chat
tered pleasantly with George Knight. Reu-
ben Lloyd looked grand, gloomy and pecu-
liar, and industriously sawed wood"
Paris Kilburn and General Sheehan, the
only Federal officials in San Francisco who
were not for Morrow and who have made
gallant fight for Markham, were not dele
gates, but they hung on the outskirts aud
cheered like madmen for the Los Angeles
favorite.
CURTIS sKIPs OUT.
Edward Curtis was missing. He had
quietly pre-empted box-car and slid out
for San Francisco, not caring to remain
after his interview with Dan Burns and
Seonchin" Maloney. Sam Shortridge
Senator Williams and Charlie Bassett
yelled themselves hoarse for Markham,
while the Alameda and the majority of the
San Francisco delegates did the same for
Morrow.
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES.
When the convention had come to order
the Chair announced that the first thing in
order was the report of the Committee on
Credentials Dan Burns as Chairman re-
sponded and showed that 677 delegates were
present. There being no contests, the re-
port was quietly adopted without the roll be-
