Delegates are beginning TO arrive in

here already come from extreme districts
OF California, representing Hum boldt and
Los Angeles. They claim TO be pledged to
no candidate and to have entered Into no
combinations. Returns from the interior
counties are backward, only eight or ten
having been received at the Democratic

of country delegates.
Ex-MayOr Workman of Los Angeles
came to town yesterday and was widely
talked of as a candidate for Lieutenant

he was not an aspirant for political honors.
Still, if the nomination was offered him. he
would not decline.

After going over the situation deli berately
they came to the conclusion that he ought
to accept the nomination for Governor.
They telegraphed Mcguire in Washington
that it was his duty to accept. and urged
him to come here Immediately. His
closest friends firmly believe that there
will be no opposition and that lie has
splepdid chances for success
