relatives of other public officers. and that
nominees must he citizens of the United

THE PLATFORM.
1t Is Anti Monopoly, Free Silver and
Woman'S Suffrage.

SACRAMENTO, June 20.-When the con-
vention renewed its session in the after
noon the heat had increased until the
temperature in the hall was uncoEfort-
able. Delegates manipulated fans of
every description and color. and perspired
freely with the expression of martyrs
suffering for the good of righteous cause
The reading of the platform was at once
proceeded with. This was done by Grove
L. johnson, chairman OF the platform
committee, whose literary taste was quite
conspicuous in the fowery periods of the
bulky document which he read. The
rumor that a wOman's suffrage plank was
10 the platform had been floating around
and this brought larger attendance of
women than ever. 1u fact the visitors
seats were filed with the fairer sex, who
applauded rapturOusly. A long line of
ladies decorated the rear wall of the stage
also. making a poetic background for
those addressing the convention. The
reading of the platform wsS frequently
interrupted with applause. When it had
been read it was adopted without dis
seUting voice. In fact, II there had been
any inclination 10 dissent it would not
have had a chance to manifest itself. Its
adoption was moved by Mr.. johnson as
soon as ne finished and the question was
put with characteristic speed by Chairman
Knight Before it quite realized the fact
the convention had swallowed the plat
form, the wOman's suffrage splinter and
all. A smile went around the San Fran
cisco delegation, and Dan Burns laughed

Nineteen-The mines OF California, with their
annual output of many millions OF dollars, have
been our financial bulwark In times of adver-
sity; they maintained the national credit during
the dark days OF The rebellion, and they form
the basis upon which this grandest OF common
weallhs. California, has been reared. The
mining Industry OF our State should receive
such aid and protection as will insure its per.
manence ana prosperity, and for that purpose
we favor such State ana national legislation as
will relieve The miner from unnecessary bur-
dens. enable him TO obtain and develop his
mining property, and will promote and encour-

which he did with the remark that Estee
was not in the Legislature when the
fourteenth amendment was voted, and that
any man who denied Estee's fame had
better go to Seal Rocks and talk to the
ocean.
1t was at this juneture that the dark
cloud appeared which was to bring with it
the storm. At no time was there any
chance of a stampede from the Burns con-
troll until George A. Knight locked horns
with General A. l.. Hart Of Sacramento.
AT that time had the right man appeared
to crystalline the angry feelings aroused
the convention could have been swung
agail st Estee positively, az 1t was at all
times Dassively. General Hart held Te-
hama proxy. He had been chosen to nomi-
nate Chapman. Perhaps never before in
political convention of such dignity has so
remarkable a scene been enacted as oc-
Cured during Harris nominating speech.
Knight recognized Hart and announced
him to the convention.
II hope" began Hart, as a murmur of
appreciation rose from the country dele
gates. that we all meet here as members
of what is and what will be a united Re-
publican party" After this charitable
wish General Hart proceeded to score the
Estee supporters without mercy.

produced the goods that were protected. We
believe that the American laborer is entitled to
more protection than the product 0f his skill

come when the nation must make firm and
decided stand against the lncurslon OF under
paid and ignorant labOrers OF the Old World
that are focking here now in such numbers as
TO drive the American labOrer from his work,
with the Inevitable result, as seen at the pres
eut time, OF causing disturbances in the manu-
featuring centers OF the nation, reducing the
price OF labor, breaking up happy homes and
prosperous business. We demand the enact

ESTEE THE MAN.
Named by Knight After Consultation
With Dan Burns.


SACRAMENTO, June 20. = Cut and
dried as the whole affair was, the
most dramatic and stirring scenes of
the State convention surrounded the nomi-
nations for Governor this afternoon. To
the surprise of great many the nomina-
ton of Morris Nj. Estee was made by
Chairman Knight himself. After the
Louder motion to amend the platform had
been consigned to oblivion, feeling of
uncertainty hung for brief period over
the convention. Though every one knew
the pomin alton for Governor was the next
in order Of business, yet it was not known
how the thing would be started. The con-
veution was not long in doubt. George
knight suddenly stepped to the platform
from the chair and announced that Vice
President Davis would take his place for
the time being. A buzz of excitement rose
from the massed audience.

per of the assembly.
Knight took seat in the front row of
the San Francisco delegation, just in front
of Dan Burns, who bent forward and

some applause. He was considerab bly, ex-
cited. he knew the opposition to his can
didate was large and though it was gen.
orally whispered that the convention was
secure for Estee, it was hard to say what
country delegates might do. For a few
moments knight paced back and forth on
the platform, seemingly concentrating his
ideas.

aud distinctly. while the slight buzz be-
came silence and the delegates bent for

Knight, who had rushed TO the chair and
was trying to bring silence from the con-
fusion. He at last succeeded in COMPEL

counties. The result was against the in
