OF ths speakers voice. 1t was only by

but pointed speech, welcomed Mr.. Estes
to the city OF Pasadena. promising to
him warm reception from her people.
The appearance OF the northern can

Alter that the speaker closely held the
attention OF his audience throughout hie
entire speech save frequent interrup.
tlone by prolonged applause.
The work of the Democratic congress
OF the past year was reviewed and held
up as complete failure and that the
American people were thoroughly dis
gueted with the way things have been
run at Washington. The tariff question
was taken up and the production of the
Democratic congress- in this line was dis.
sected and condemned. The recent
financial depression which the country
has passed through was laid at the door
OF the Democracy, and complete turn
over was predicted at the next election.
The Populists were also given sharp
rap, the speaker starting out by relating
that he understood Pasadena Was we'll

The state Republican platform was
discussed and held to be fitted to all the
requirements of the rapidly growing
state OF California.
Touching silver, the speaker declared
his loyalty to its being given an equal
footing with gold.
The meeting cloaed with an informal
reception. Mr.. Estee shaking hands with
several hundred people. He will remain

nizing the equal rights of all who live

there was trouble. The chairman
announced that some gentlemen were
present in the Seventh ward delegation
whose votes had besn sent in by prox-
les. Several gentlemen from the
Seventh ward attempted to explain ths
matter at the same time. 1t took half
an hour to get quiet. The scene was
the most uproarious Of the convention.
The chair appointed W. T. Williams as
special sergeant-as-srms to clear the
floor of all who were not delegates, and
E. A. Messrve was the last one to be put
off.
The chairman got little excited him
self and requested the delegates in the
aisle to pleass either be seated or else
sit down. There was row between the
police officer and delegate in the lobby
that took the convention's attention for
several minutes, and finally order was
again restored.
