while the finance committee was prepar-
ing its crusade for capital. The Board OF
Trade put itself on record for the conven.
tion, and at the suggestion of William III.
Mills the following resolution was adopted
ResolUed, That the general manager of the
California State Board of Trade exhibit al
Atlanta be given the necessary leave of alb.
sence from his duties to see as many members
III ~.
Committee to solicit their votes in favor of San
Francisco as place for holding the next Ma
tlonal Republican Convention, and to co-ope
rate with the committee from San Francisco
and use his best endeavors in that direction.
This will give Mr.. Filcher, who repre-.
sents California at Atlanta, an opportun.
| ity of doing some very effective work
| among the National committeeman, and
there is no doubt about that gentleman
| being thoroughly competent to handle all
the committeeman who come within his
reach. With the adoption of the foregoine
resolution he will feel that it is the desire
OF the people of California that he move
among the men we need to win the great
| convention for San Francisco, and he will
begin work as soon as the authority reaches
! him.
That all over the State the interior towns
are waking up to the Importance of San
Francisco's proposition to the National
Republican Committee is apparent. Santa
Barbara was the last town to come into
fold, and that city has its committees
appointed and is making collections to
swell the fund
! The last obstacle in the way of a SIC
return rate from Chicago to San Francisco
for the Republican National Convention
has been practically removed by the Bur
lington system falling into line with the
other Western railways. Assurance wa.
given yesterday by J. Francis, general
passenger and ticket agent of the Burling.
ton system, that he would meet them or
an equal footing. 1t came in dispatch tc
w. D. Sanborn, the general Western agent
in this City of that company, which wa.
| transmitted to General Passenger Agen
| T. H. Goodman of the Southern Pacific
who is chairman of the transportation com
mittee of the National Republican Conven
ton in San Francisco:
! ". D. San6orn: Anticipate no difficulty what
ever in securing $50 rate, Chicago to Sar
Francisco and return, if you secure the Repub

has been in favor of it from first Will person
