PROCEEDINGS IN DETAIL.
Work of Nominating the Republican
Candidates.

The convention which on Saturday night
nominated John Leary for mayor and Victor
Hugo Smith for treasurer was called
to order again by Chairman Charles F.
Fishback at 2:15 yesterday afternoon.
The proceedings were orderly and harmon
ious, and the business was dispatched
swiftly and well. Lee Fairchild' appeared as
proxy for George U. Piper, Erastus Braiuerd for
Frank Bell, and d.. J. Z. Crichton for Frank
Prosch.

then in order, John Wiley put forward the
name of Orange Jacobs, .'the old man eloquent,
the Nestor of the bar, and the Blackstone OF
Washington"
Joseph shippen for the Third ward nomin-
ated 2. T.. Carroll.
Trusten p. Dyer said the Seventh ward had
been for s. NJ. Shipley until Judge Jacobs came
into the field, but now the Seventh was for the
judge. Herbert W. Tayloy seconded for the
First, John Arthur for the Sixth, William o DON
nell for the Fifth and William Phillips for the
Eighth. The name of William Carroll was,
therefore, withdrawn and the Third seconded
Jacobs, who was nominated by reclamation.
For city attorney Trilsten P. Dyer nominated
"a young man Of high standing in the COM
munity and OF highest standingat the bar, John
". Corson." c. Z. Remsburg seconded for the
Ninth, John Arthur for the Sixth, William
O'Donnell for the Fifth, John Wiley for the Sec
ond and William Phillips for the Eighth. Her
bert W. Taylor made Il brief but graceful and
forcible address in seconding for the First, and
NJ. W. Lovejoy described Mr. Corsous tireless
services 10 his party on the stump in the East.
Then Mr.. Corson went in by reclamation.
There was hush of expectancy when the
nominations for city clerk were in order. The
Third ward, by Joseph Shipper, put r. W. Jones
into the field, and for the Sixth John Arthur
named Thomas ". Gordon.
After ". d. Wood had seconded the nominal
ton OF R. W. Jones, 7. J. McCorry proposed
Henry ". Miller who had ALREADY filed the
Office with efficiency and credit
William Phillips nominated "a soldier, hero
and steadfast Republican" Francis VI. Davis
and John Wiley seconded with a glowing
eulogy.
After Trusten T. Dyer had seconded Gordon
and George b. kittinger had seconded Miller

THREE LITTLE GIRLS ESCAPE.
They Come Very Near Drowning in Lake
Union.

Three young girls named Maggie Brown, Ger
trude Winsor and Gertie Cox narrowly escaped
being drowned in Lake Union yesterday after
noon and were rescued only after great efforts
by Frank Latey and a gentleman who disap-
peared after the deed was accomplished.
The three girls named and Isabel Scanlon, all
of whom live in the neighborhood OF Lenora
and Sixth streets, in North Seattle, started out
for walk yesterday afternoon. and wandered
down TO Lake Union, where they came to the
Boulevard which runs along the west shore of
the lake. They followed this until
the Lake Union water-works were
reached, and here they found q
boom of logs which belongs to the Western Mill
Company. The Seaman 81 rl stayed on the planks
of the boulevard, while her companions got
down upon the logs. All went well for a short
time and the girls were in high spirits, tripping
over the logs, which lay in water about thirty
feet deep. Finally they all got on the same log
and it rolled slightly. As the girls became
frightened and tried to steady themselves the
log rolled over, and all three were precipitated
headlong into the water. Their cries were
heard by Frank Latey, who was working on a
house near by, and man who was walking
along the boulevard directly opposite where the
accident happened.
Both men rushed to the spot and after consid-
cradle difficulty rescused the girls from their
dangerous and decidedly chilly situation
Gertrude Winsor was taken home at once
The other girls were taken to Mrs. Fosters
house near by, their wet clothing removed and
means taken to avoid the danger of ill results
from the icy bath. About 6 o'clock in the even
ing tho girls were in condition to leave Mrs
Fosters and go home.

John w. Corson Man Eminently

John w Corson, the candidate for city attor-
ney, has lived in Seattle since the fall OF lSSS
and he has won tho respect and admiration Of
the many who have met him. His birthplace
was the extreme East-Penobscot county, Me
and the date was 1860 The first fifteen years of
his life we're spent at home, aud he attended the
common schools In 1879, however, his ambi-
ton took him to the Maine Wesleyan seminary,
where he fitted for college. Since he was a
Methodist it was but natural that he should 20

ana, after long and weary journey by wagon
settled in Salem, then the most important town
OF the territory of Oregon. lie afterward re-
moved to Jacksonville, where he practiced law,
and attained such prominence that in legisla-
tive canvass he came within one of Il nomine-
ton for United States senator
In 1867 he was selected by President Grant as
associate justice of the supreme court OF Wash
lngton territory. He took up his residence in
Seattle, and was soon afterward promoted to the
chief justiceship. One OF the most important
events OF that epoch was his judicial action in
the Watts murder case. 1t involved the ques
ton OF United States jurisdiction over the
island of San Juan, which was then in the joint
occupancy of the English and American govern
ments. 1T threatened ut one time to result in
international complications, but Judge Jacobs
frmnesB sustained the dignity of the United
States, and he sentenced the convict to death.
Watts managed to effect his escape and tho diff
Guilty was postponed until the whole question
was settled by the famous award oil the German
emperor, by which San Juan became part of
the United States.
President Grant reappointed Judge Jacobs,
and he served until 1876, when he resigned to
accept the Republican nomination for delegate
to congress. lie was reelected and introduced
. bill into congress for the admission OF Wash
ington as state. 1t was delayed for several
years, but he never ceased his efforts lie suc-
ceeded in securing passage of law for the re-
lief of settlers the original survey of the
Northern Pacific land grant, which was a great
boon to large class who had taken up land in
good faith.
He declined denomination, but was not left
long at his practice, being elected mayor oil Sc
attic in 1850, and, refusing to serve again, was
chosen member OF the territorial legislature
Judge Jacobs ranks among the ablest lawyers
OF the Northwest, and his prepared addresses
display literary ability OF exalted purity. His
speech upon the death of President Garfield was
one of the most magnificent orations ever de-
livered on this Coast.
Judge Jacobs is president of the King County
Bar Association and is both venerated and be-
loved by all who come in contact with him for
his never failing warmth of heart and imper-
turbable good temper. AS an old anG faithful
public servant he has been sometimes mis-
Judged, but on those rare occasions he phi,o-
sophicaily bends before the storm and awaits
the time when he shall be vindicatcd. HIS
career has more than once demonstrated that he
will not tone his convictions to popular clamor
or permit the prejudices of a moment to warp
his sense OF right

his eyes northward no selected Seattle as his
future home, arriving in this city May 2S, 1859.
He purchased the harness store of NJ. Il. Me-
Teigh and in a few days afterward was burned
out in the great fire. Not a week, how
ever, elapsed before Mr.. Holloway with
characteristic energy had begun business again
in TENT His beginning was small. but his
business has grown, until today he has one OF
the largest concerns of the kind III Washington.
Mr.. Holloway early in life took deep interest

that for many years his father was chief engi-
neer of the san Jose fire department. He is
member of the Seattle parlor OF the Native Sons
OF the Golden West, and is also identified with
various other secret societies. While not taking
any active part in politics, Mr.. Holloway has al

erty, and is essentially interested in the city's
welfare. He is unmarried man, but is Il
householder, his mother aud sister dwelling
with him at his home in the Second ward.

manned there until iSo6. He then took up his
residence in Seattle, where he has been ever
since He is a photographic printer, but like
many another who came to the new West to
seek his fortune he looked around for profit
able occupation and decided that the laundry
business held out inducements. He has been
very successful, and while he has not yet reached
great wealth he is in comfortable circumstances
with good prospects before him.

Democrats of the FRS. Ward.

A meeting of the Second, Third and Fourth
precincts of the First Ward Democratic Club was
called last evening, aud about thirty Democrats,
presided over by J. N. Quilter, met in an empty
building at the corner of Ninth and Dearborn
streets.
Speeches were made by J. T. Blackstone and
i. +. Drew. Blackstone attempted to incorpor-
ate in his TRADE against the present city govern
ment some of Judge Junius Rochester's figures,
but the effort was too great and he became sadly
involved Drew came to his rescue, however,
by taking the floor himself and thus allowing
him to make his escape. There will be meet
ing at the same place next Monday evening.
