Mr.. McGinty.
Ex-Congressman James Budd was ''in it,
with will. and intends holding on to the
last 1t was hotter than his native San
Joaquin County among the delegateS-this
work be had in hand, but he kept on
persistently and hopefully. Meanwhile
Waters was not idle. His friends say he
will win at last.
THE GovERNoRsHIP.
The aspirants for the Governorship paid
little attention to the other disturbing ele-
ments. They and their friends kept up
steady battle. which was stirred up con-
siderably by the presence of fourth rival
In the person of ex-HaIbor Commissioner
Paulsell, who is backed by Stockton and
San Joaquin.
Coleman's and Mayor Ponds men claimed
to have added many votes to their respec-
tive lists, and al night each were sanguine
of success.
Everything, believe. looks quite favor
able" said Coleman, as he stood receiving
congratulations . few yards distant from
where Pond was in the midst Of ring Of
supporters.
English's adherents tell similar story.
Paulsell did not go into the fight with so
much ostentatiOn and flourish of brass
bands as his opponents. He only secured
the Endorsement of the people of his county,
and with that alone has made sudden leap
into popularity. His fight is in the hands
of A. Il. Vogelsang, the attorney. who
claims 70 votes for the first ballot. Vogel-
sang goes further and says that if The other
candidates do not show disposition to get
away with the votes, the balance will fall
in PaulselPs favor.
COLD AND NoN-CoMMITTAL.
In Mayor Ponds room in the Grand Ho-
tel was select band of faithful workers,
who received delegations from the interior
at different times during the day. The place
had certain nOn-cOmmittal air of doubt
ing hope. 1t was in the atmosphere, which
was raw and chill, as usual.
Senator Yell OF Mendocino County, who
came to the city Saturday night, is a can
didate against j. A. Ficher. ex-Prison
Director, of Placer County, for Railroad
Commissioner for the northern district. He
stated that he did not deem it necessary to
make much of a fight as his county and the
one adjoining were for him. Yet he was
very busy all day among the delegates at
the Palace and Grand hotels. He is of the
opinion that the contest for nomination for
Governor is badly split up.
The presence of many Republican politi-
clans in the Palace court was subject for
comment among Democratic delegates.
Judge COtley Is looked upon as very
strong candidate for Associate Justice, and
is said to have captured the majority of the
county delegates.
A SURE THING.
The general impression is that the nomi-
nation for Secretary of State on the Demo-
cratic ticket will not be worth % cents to
the nominee. as Z. G.Waite will get goodly
proportion of Democratic votes 10 addition
to those of his own party. The chances
now are in favor of Henrcks, the incum-
bent. on the Democratic ticket.
John p. Dunn is said to be making win
ming fight for his present position OF State
Controller.
Colonel Markham will remain in this city
for few days TO consult with leading Re

consist of twelve members from San Fran
cisco and nine from the country. lie will
remain until the committee is appointed.
The committee selected will be announced
on Tuesday or Wednesday. Williams and
Estee both want to be Chairman Of the COM
mittee, but both may be disappointed.
HON. BUDD.
Jimmie Budd's candidacy for the chair
manship of the State Convention and his
opposition to Stephen NJ. White is regarded
by many of the delegates as a move in the
interest of Senator Stanford. w. w. Foote,
the attorney, is making vigorous fight for
Budd.
hon. Rodney J. Hudson. Superior Judge
of Lake County, is q guest at the Grand.
Judge Hudson is in the race for the nOm-
nation for Congressman in the First Dis
trict, and his friends are confident that he
will be the successful competitor in the
convention on Tuesday next With
him in the race are Shannohan

Haynes of Humboldt, both strong men.

factory that the people of Lake rec lected
