tion, VI tnat olstrlct, Will be thrown
against him.
The colored contingent never fails to
get In on every nomination that ia
made. They make seconding speeches
and as rule no two are for the same
man, yet each speaker asks the nomina-
tion OF his favorlfe as representative
OF 'de forteen bundled color'd voters OBJ
de county,"
Thomas B. Hayee, of Wilmington.
| was not present on the floor of the con-
veption yesterday. The delegates gave
Tom and his friends all they wanted
| Tuesday night. Mr.. Hayes friends will
! not forget the insults that were heaped
| upon him when election day rolls round.
| There is no more honest or deserving
man in the county than Tom Hayes.
Ralph Rogers, who has been a dele
gate in great many prohibition county
| conventions, and who has alwaya
affiliated with the prohibition party. is
delegate in this convention from Gar
vanza.
Considering the fact that Charles 7.
Parsons ente red the contest for auditor
at such a late date, he received a yery
dattering and complimentary vote.
Tommy Smith has been unnecessarily
vigorous and objectionably active in
blaspheming several OF the Second ward
delegation, who were instrumental in
defeating the said Smith and the ele-
ment of which he is a shining represents
ative.
Paul Vignes got counted out when the
Seventh ward cast its vote on the third
ballot for auditor. Paul was the last
man to vote of the twenty delegates in
the ward. but someone had. kindly
stepped in and cast his ballot fol him.
w. p. Hamilton makes an efficient
secretary, and has greatly expedited the
work OF the convention.
II anyone thinks that Mayor Hazard
has not thus lar been factor in this
convention, he is mistaken. The mayor
has stayed right with it ever since it
was convened, Tuesday morning. He
has embraced the opportunity to even
up some old political scores. The mayor
is not believer in the divine injunc-
ton that if man smite you upon one
cheek, turn unto him the other.
Col. NJ. Nudge seems to be unfortu-
nate in Republican convention. He
regularly is put up for en- office, either
honorary or otherwise, and he is Just as
regularly defeated by the very men who
put him up. In fact, it would eeem as
though the manipulators used the
worthy colonel for filing in purposes.
Prize Orator Hawkins, as a teller, was
decided success. The soothing tones
of his gentle and bird-like voice came
into excellent play. 'e
The delegates overlooked Mr.. Wards
unenviable position in the mutilation OF
the records of his Office in the Taylor
Pirtle fraudulent naturalization case.
The voters will not forget the fact.
The county was put to an unnecessary
expense of $4,000 by Trowbridge H.
Ward, the Republican nominee for
county clerk. in order that the said
Ward might give the great register print
ing contract to fsvorite.
The ring handled the convention very
nicely. Generally speaking, its behests
were obeyed in almost every particular.
The market for proxies was only fairly
active yesterday. There we're no more
transfers quoted at $3.50 per proxy.
Some OF the friends of HI. @. Clements
feel very sore over his defeat for sheriff.
Mrs. J. A. Kelly, the vile of the pres
ent county recorder, was one of the in
terested spectators on the platform yes
terday afternoon.
The private soldier and disabled vet
eran, I. A. Lewis, of Santa Monica, had
his claims entirely overlooked. None
but generals or majors were in it.
| Mr.. Kelsey, the candidate for public
administrator, got very much worried
over his prospects during the afternoon.
He put in the weary hours doing some
tall rustling among the delegates.
A majority of the police commission
Hazard, Lewis and,Shatto-were on the
convention floor during the entire day.
II it had not been for the timely work
OF Jim Meredith at the Republican state
convention two years ago, Fl. H. Mark
ham, of Pasadena. would have been de-
feated for the Republican nomination
for governor. Out Of gratitude for his
services for a Pasadena citizen. everv
delegate from Pasadena and every deles
gate that they could control, was solidly
against him in yesterdays convention.
This is certainly Republican reciprocity
with vengeance.
The old soldier was undoubtedly shut
out in elegant shape. Gen. Rollins and
Private Lewis were both not good
enough.
The Lindley forces expect to appease
the Spanish American voters, and draw
attention from the fact that Police Com
missioner Lindley voted to remove
every Spanish-American on the police
force by the nomination of Mr.. Lopez,
and the defeat of General Rollins.
The Hall, who was referred to last
Saturday by the HERALD as having an
alteration with Contractor Donegan at
the polls in the Second ward. is not E.
e. Hall. Mr.. E. E. Hall was not in the
city at all last week, and returned only
last night. 1t is another Hall who was
intended. He was peddling purity
league Tickets, and Mr.. Donsgan accused
him of having taken a mule belonging
to him and forgetting to return it. Mr..
Donegan's mule is still missing.
