READY TO RATIFY.
Republican Clubs Will
Boom the Ticket.
Preparations Well in Hand for a
Grand Demonstration-SociaI-
lists Are Waiting.

The executive committee of the Repub
lican Executive Council has made consd
ersble headway in its preparations for tht
ratification meeting to be held under the
auspices of the council next Saturday
night, and the outlook is for very en-
thusiastic demonstration.
The committee had sent out notices tC
all the organizations represented in the
council, and on Friday night received re.
sponses to the effect that they would at.
tend the meeting in full force. The old
Morrow Club reported that it would be
present with a band, and that its corps
would turn ont in the handsome uniforms
with which it has recently been supplied.
The Bear Club will also make a big show
ing. The subordinate organizations have
caught the spirit of the occasion, and they
promise to give the ticket splendid
send-off
The executive committee has made ar
rangements to secure Metropolitan Temple,
and will have it appropriately decorated.
Stations will be set apart for the various
clubs and will be indicated by handsome
shields bearing the names of the different
ORGANIZATIONS The galleries will be re-
served for ladies and their escorts. Gen
eral McComb is a committee of one on
list, but has reported that he will invite
twelve orators, who will be expected TO
deliver brief addresses. The committee
will meet again next Friday evening and
finish up its work.
The Republican State central commit
Tee will hold a meeting on next Wedues-
day evening. There is nothing of especial
importance to claim its attention, but
under the new bylaws adopted at the last
meeting it is required to meet On the sec
ond Wednesday Of each month. The
vacancy in tie presidency. caused by the
death of Colonel Meyers, will not be filled,
as the present committee has lived out its
term of Office and will soon give placs TO
its successor named by the Sacramento
convention. 1t is not expected that il will
have any more business to transact.
When Mr.. Estee names the executive COM
mittee, which he will do probably this
week, the new tOdy will be ready for work
and will assume the relns. Mr.. Estee
slipped into town the latter part OF last
week. but has now gone back TO Napa to
pass the remainder Of his vacation. Few
persons knew that he was here, and he
thus escaped the necessity of declining TO
give his views on the railroad strike.
The Democrats did nothing yesterday
except talk of the canvassing of the rolls
in the districts. The work of striking off
the names of suffers is going forward and
it is not likely that any of the Buckley
brigade will be permitted to vote illegiti-
mately Since Buckley stated to Chair
man Max Pepper that he had not sent for
politicians and issued instructions to them
several Democrats who are no longer Mt
his beck and call have made the statement
that they had received summonses from
either Buckley or Rainey, adding further
proof TO the fact that the ex-bosses are
reaching out for control of the approach
ing primary,
The now famous committee OF seven
will meet at the Baldwin Hotel to-mor-
row night to consider reports of the dis
trict canvassing committees.
The Socialists have come to a halt in
their preparations to put ticket in the
field. They met some weeks ago and par
TALLY named the ticket, and since then
have not resumed the work. The explana-
tlOn given by one OF them last night was
that there was proposition to unite
number of the reform elements in the
present campaign, and the Socialists have
stopped TO see what the others intend to
do. The Socialists say that a considerable
number or POpulists are in favor of unit
ing with them, and that the single takers
are also disposed 10 favor a union of
strength. They even hope for auxiliaries
from the Prohibitionists. 1t is said that
there is some disaffectiOn among the POpu-
lists, because some of its mem bers believe
that the party does not 90 far enough In
Its principles, and that the success OF its
ticket would mean only the elevation of
the farmer, putting him in position to
dictate to the laborer as the CAPITALIST now
does. They aim TO amelorate the con-
dltloO OF the laborer, and think that the
SOCIALISTS are more in accord with their
views than the party with which they are
now affiliated.
