Of approval.
There was a lone whoop from a member
of the San Francisco delegation when the
resolution with respect to American sail
Ors was read.
George r. B. Hayes called attention to
the fact that delegates were barred out at
the door.
j. M. Brooks of Los Angeles offered an
amendm ent asking Congressional action
in favor of the right of appeal in con-
tempt proc eedings in criminal cases in
United States courts.
Hayes again called attention to the dele
gates who were shut out.
Brooks continued his speech In behalf
of his amendment. He talked of the en-
croachments of the courts on the rights of
the people. He told of 172 men incarcer-
aied in jail in Los Angeles. Points of or
der were raised. but the chair refused to
sustain the point of order. "These men
are tied up in contempt proceedings" con-
tinued Mr.. Brooks. I'VE were unable to
review the records on which they were
committed. unable to review the insol-
vency proceedings or the Santa Fe system.

To cries of ''Tlme! timer' the speaker
retorted: "Give that fellow a bundle of
fodder who says time. Just think of a
man crying time against man who is
speaking in behalf of 172 Democrats who
are incaTcerated in Jail"

asked delegate.
You bet they are." was the reply. and
the gallery cheered. THANK God" the
speaker continued, their time will ex-
pire and they will come out and vote for
my friend G. W. Patton for Congress.

SPENCER AS A DARK HORSE.

:. The Democratic State convention got
down to work yesterday after great deal
Of preliminary msueuvering. 1t is now
well on its way and tonight will find the
greater part Of its work done. IL is even
possible that it may rush through the re-
maInder Of its lsbors and adjourn by 8
o'clock.
But this Is imprO bable. as the nomina-
tion of candidate for Governor is likely
toprove very pretty fight aud one which
: may consume much time and Involve a
great deal of political sparring. The sit
uation over this piece of business under
=. went % radical change yesterday. Barney
Murphy's followers late last night claimed
800 delegates, but they have been contend
ing that they had that many for two days.
They are good chalmers and their calcula-
tions are challenged by the opposing
forces.
=. James II. Budd is still in the field, also
asserting that he has strength enough to
carry him through the ordeal, ana there
are several other factors which add to the
peTpIexity of the problem.
The convention has at least got through
with the platform puzzle. It's committee
yesterday reported a political document
which the State body accepted without
amendment 1t was disappointing docu-
ment to the rank and file. but it was the
best the committee could do after an all
night session and much cudgeling of the
brain for ways Of escaping dangerous
places in the perilous way to party sue
cess.
1t indorsed the Democratic administra-
tioh and favored the establishment of a
tribunal of arbitration for the peaceful
settlement of disputes between employer
and laborer. 1t arraigned the Republican
declaration in favor Of free coinage of sill
yer as hypocritical and insincere and ia
yOred the retirement Of all gold coins and
paper money below the nomination of So
>: An international irrigation commission and
a constitutional amendment providing for
the election of United States Senator by
direct vote Of the people were among the
measures advocated.
=, There was also plank directed against
the extension of time for payment of the
: railroad debt, with provision for the re-
-duction OF freights. The platform pro-
claims the pariy's adherence to the prin-
D.: ciple Of religious liberty, and indorsed the

offered an amendment that members of the
State Central Committee be selected by the
Assembly districts forthwith.
Sam Rucker moved to amend that the
Assembly districts send in their nomina-
tiOns at 10 o'clock this morning, and asked
how a nominee for Governor could select
the ten delegates sppOrtiOned to him when
no nomination had been named.
Then l move that the Assembly dis
tricts select their representatives at once"
said Mr.. Troy.
A delegate from Alameda declared the
proposition impracticable.
a. f. Jones of Butte offered an amend
ment that the Assembly districts be in
structed to report their State central COM
mitteemen within twenty-four hours.
AS delegate in the Contra Costa section
arose to speak the convention with scant
courtesy tried to howl him down.
Il want TO say right nOw," said Chair
man Del Vale, "that every delegate shall
have the right TO speak" The convention
accepted the rebuke and quieted at once.
Alter remarking that some delegates
wanted to be heard all the time and that
Contra Costa had not yet been heard the
delegate from that county asked in what
condition the motion stood with so many
amendments offered and withdrawn.
F. Ii. Gould offered an amendment fix
ing the time at II o'clock this morning.
THAT is a third amendment and l will
not entertain il" ruled the chairman. The
time was finally fixed at 10 o'clock this
morning. and the report Of the committee
on permanent organization as amended
was adopted.
George r. B. Hayes moved an adjourn
ment until . O'Clock.
G. w. Mordecai Of MADEIRA reported an
error in the Kings County delegation.

abused, then forgiven and reinstalled in
Democratic confidence.
General Ciunie appeased a very angry
set OF delegates by an unusually eloquent
appeal on behalf of his friend. and then
succeeded in convincing them that one
sin. though 1t may have been considered
the objectionable crime against Demoe-
racy, does not constitute total depravity.
The fault was condoned. and the states
men from the First District were induced
to give the man who voted against the
Wilson bill one more trial.
In other respects yesterday did not
differ from the preceding days of this
political gathering. The same amount of
wire-pulling and vote-getting was done at
the Baldwin Hotel. a few more candi-
dates were mentioned for places on the
ticket, and every man who had fight
on his hands had that fight surely won, in
his imagination.
Loud complaint was again made about
the Baldwin Theater and the inconvenience
to which visitors and delegates are sub.
jected on account of its size and the man
ner in which the convention is being man.

their seats and to issue into the adjacent
hotel and they could not get back. All

guests of the city have no accommoda.
tiou. The Fire Department closed the
doors of the theater efter 1t had become
crowded, and it took more influence to get
in than it does to get a Cabinet office, so
the delegates said. 1t is quite certain that

Delegates came struggling into the con-
ventioD. At 1920 O'CLOCK. when Chairman
Del Vale raped for order, not more than
half were seated. A communication was
read inviting the members of the conven-
ton to visit the rooms of the State Board
of Trade. Quite little applause followed
the reading of the communication from
the Traffic Association asking the conven-
tiOn 10 indorse its candidates for State
Railroad Commissioners. The letter was
placed on file and the secretary was in
structed to thank the Traffic Association
for the communication.

The snow Of the ioro part OF the week
in the lower end Of the state was the
HEAVIEST experienced in that section for
several years. An Ohio River railway
train, north bound. was delayed over
two hours in ploughing its way from the
passenger station in huntington to tho
Twenty-iourth street station. As the
train pulled up in front OF the station
the snow, which had driited heavily in
that particular place. was thrown over
onto tho station platform to the depth
OF several feet and almost completely
buried man and woman who were
waiting for the train. Tho two unior-
