Speaking to the resolutions, Mr.. Clunie
said that there were acknowledged dis
agreements in the local Democracy, and
that the men opposed to this committee
were not working in the interests of the
party. He denounced the Federal officers
appointed by Cleveland as being self-seek-
ing and endeavoring to further only their
own interests, even if disruption was the
result.
He referred to the recent action of the
Democratic State Central Committee in
recognizing the Junta as being an insult
not only to the Buckley committee, but to
the whole Democracy of the State.
he concluded by saying that If the reso-
lutions were adopted the delegates who
were pledged as outlined therein would
be sure of recognition when they went to
the State Convention. The resolutions
We're unanimously adopted.

nouncing the methods of the Southern

such measure passed, and thanking Sen
ator Stephen NJ, White and Congressman
James G. Mcguire on behalf of the Demo-
cratic party of San Francisco for their
loyal fight against California railroad
monopolies."
