The Republican delegates to the Sacra-
mento convention began arriving in num-
bers in the city about noon yesterday.
By evening the majority had returned
from the scene of their la bors in the capt.
tai city and were around the local head
quarters discussing matters relating to the
campaign and the prospects of success for
their ticket.
There is general feeling of satisfaction
over the ticket as prepared and the
strength of the candidates. Whatever dis
seusions appeared in the party ranks
prior 10 the convention have been healed
now, and on all sides there is an apparent
determination TO work for the success of
the ticket
Among the Democrats, as usual, there is
a sentiment that it will take good man
from their ranks to capture the guberna-
torisl prize.
They had strong hopes of having Judge
Jackson Temple to stand at the head of
their ticket However, these hopes were
shattered yesterday, when 1t was an
nounced by Judge Temple himself that be
would not be a candidate. Judge Temple
gave as a reason for declining to run that
be did not feel physically able to under
take the work Of campaign.
Congressman Mcguire is considered
among Democrats as a likely candidate,
but in some respects he is not looked upon
as particularly strong man for the nOmi-
nation.
Another man who is looked upon as
having more than fair prospect for the
nomination is Pat Reddy.
Respecting the contest for the Supreme
Court nominations there Is deep feeling
of Indignation aroused by the defeat of
Judge De Haven.
In Democratic circles it is even sug-
gested that De Haven shall be a nominee
on their ticket.
But in being interviewed yesterday
Judge de Haven said that there was not
a member of the whole delegation so
taken by surprise as he was on finding
himself defeated. There was nothing that
he had done, be said, that warranted the
action Of the convention in this respect.
AS to accepting a nomination from the
Democrats he said:
at is no use. could not very we'll do
that"
