The Stampede to Markham
When the count was concluded the
secretary was about to announce the re-
suit, which gave Markham 200 votes
and Morrow 2S1, leaving Markham
lacking forty votes of having majority,
but before the vote was announced the
delegations from Calvaras and Humboldt
counties, and the forty-fifth and forty
sixth assembly districts of San Fran
cisco, changed their votes from Morrow
to Markham. The widest excitement
followed, and in the midst of the confu-
sion General Dimond jumped on a
chair before any more changes could be
made, and moved to make Markham's
nomination unanimous. The scene baf-
fled description. Delegates acted like
mad men, waving their hats and cheer
ing. J. N. E. Wilson then suggested
three cheers for Markham, and they
were given with will. Markham was
declared the nominee. The Los An
geles delegation grabbed up their colors
and waved them in the air like mad.
Markham's nomination was made unan-
imous.
AS soon as the renewed cheering
which followed Markham's nomination
had subsidized somewhat, motion was
made to take a recess, but after con-
siderable discussion it was defeated, and
the convention proceeded to the NOM
ination of candidates for Lieutenant
Governor.
w. r. Davis, of Alameda, in a brief
speech, nominated VIM. H. Jordan, of
Oakland. There was still much con-
fusion in the chamber, and after Daviss
speech was concluded, another motion
to take a recess till 8 O'Clock in the
evening was carried, and the convention
adjourned.
Reddick for Lieutenant Governor.
When the convention met at 8 15 this
evening, motion was made to adjourn
until tomorrow morning, but was lost,
and the convention proceeded to nomi-
nations for lieutenant governor.
j. P. Davis, of Calaveras, nominated
John B. Reddick of San Andreas,
Reddick's nomination was seconded by
R. Clark, of Yolo, and d. P. Hatch, of
Los Angeles. The candidates then
before the convention and
made brief addresses, after which
ballot was taken.
Roll call proceeded until after the vote
of San Francisco had been counted,
when Reddick had received 365 votes to
l24 for Jordan. Davis, of Alameda.
accordingly moved that Reddick's nomi-
nation be made unanimous, which was
agreed to.
The convention took up the nomina
ton of candidates for chief justice of the
supreme court. w. H. Beatty, the
present chief justice, was nominated by
Frank Adams, of San Luis Obispo.
Ralph G. Harrison, was placed in nomi-
nation by E. S. Pillsbury, of San Fran
cisco. Morehouse, of Santa Clara, and
George knight seconded Chief fJustice
Beatty. Mr.. Pillsbury afterwards with
drew the nomination of R. G. Harrison
and moved to make the nomination OF
Chiet Justice Beatty unanimous, which
