full City.

In every part of the State the cities and
towns are falling into line and mastering
their final forces to capture the Republi-
can National Convention with prompt
ness and enthusiasm that promise sue
cess in all of its enriching completeness.
The people of the interior are rapidly be-.
ginning to realize what the thing means
and for the past few days the managers of
the great movement in this City have had
their hands full with the most encourag-
ing messages from every section of Califor-
mia.
Only two days ago Marysville, Visalia,
MADEIRA and other places were the scenes
of enthusiastic gatherings of prominent
men, all combined in one vigorous effort
to help San Francisco in the great contest,
and so help themselves in the assured de-
velopment of their various sections by the
meeting of the President makers in the
metropolis.
The committee on promotion which has
been charged with the work of arousing
interest in the matter throughout the
State is in hourly receipt of congratulatory
and encouraging kilograms. Colonel
Albert Castle, who directs the committees S
work, has already heard from nearly a
score of towns where the citizens have
indicated their willingness to help matters
along. and propose to hold meetings i'm
mediately. Tonight the Republicans Of
Yuba County will gather at Marysville
and decide upon methods which will con-
tribute to San Franeisco's success in the
fight with the big cities of the East. In
formation to this effect was received from
there last night, and recites the following:

The Republicans of Yuba County will meet
in this city tomorrow evening to give express

From the Eastern cities the Promotion
Committee has received late reports which
completely confirm the opinion that San
Francisco is pretty far in the lead. In
Chicago the business men have only made
preparations for the canvass for funds,
and the active work will probably not be-
gin for several days. Some very ener-
getic work, however, will be done. and
there are reasons to believe that California
has 10 great number of days to lose in get
ting things into shape. This fact is being
impressed upon the citizens in the interior
by the Promotion Committee with all pos
sible rapidity and emphasis.

Inspector Dockery has been planning to
