In conclusion he thanked the conven-
ton Tor the honor conferred upon him,
and said he was willing to receive the
Endorsement of all other clubs and organ
lzations, but proposed, nevertheless, to
maintain his allegiance to the Republi can
party. which, he said, was the party of
protection, and would go forward to VIC

that grand banner bearer from Ohio, Viii

Three cheers were given for Colonel G.
l.. Taylor, the regular Republican nomi-
nee for Mayor of San Francisco, and the
convention adjourned until this evening
at 3 O'Clock. Nominations will then be
continued in the selection of Treasurer,
perihtendent of Streets and municipal
judicial officers.
After the convention adjourned dele
gates OF the Forty-second Assembly Dis
trict convened and selected Lorenzo
henry as their nominee for the Assembly.
Henry is printer ald native son. He
has occupied positions in the State
Printers office during two terms and is
now following his profession here.

! for Willie Deane," and three good cheers
were given.
Schooler said that Deane is printer by
profession, and bright, com petent young
man, who enjoys remarkable popularity
all over town, where he has lived from
childhood. His chara cter and his fitness
for the office were so well known, the
speaker said it was not necessary to dwell
upon those qualities. Deane has been an
active Republican for many years and has
many friends in the Democratic ranks as
well as in his own party. He is brother
in-law of NJ. H. de Young, editor and pro-
prietor of the Chronicle.
The nomination was seconded by P. A.
Bergerot of the Thirty-eighth District
Deane was declared the choice of the
convention. rs Billy Deane in the hall?"
asked Chairman Riordan. He was pres
ent, and as soon as he showed himself on
the platform delegates and spectators
cheered enthusiastically. He indorsed
the platform of the regular Republican
party, and was declared the nominee by
acclamation. In his speech Mr.. Deane
was overcome by the hearty reception ac-
corded him, but clearly indorsed the plat
form.
Fred A. Elliott of the Thirty-sixth Dis
trict named for Tax Collector a man who,
he said, was eminently qualified for the
position, successful business man, promi-
nent in social and political circles and a
popular representative OF the German
citizens-Cord Wetien. The nomination
was seconded by Lincoln e. Savage, who
said he had known Mr.. Wetjen as a
square" and honorable man and worthy
member of The regular Republican party
of this City.
Mr.. Wetjen said that if he was elected
Tax Collector the business of the Office
would be conducted in an honest, inteIi-
gent and business-like manner He
thanked the convention for the honor of
nomination, and was then declared the
nominee by acclamation.
At this junctnre Colonel Taylor walked
from the wings upon the stage. AS soon as
he showed himself fairly before the conven-
ton wild, enthusiastic cheer went up
from all parts of the house Delegates
! threw their hats into the air; others
jumped to their feet and swung their arms
enthusiastically. 1t was some time before
this magnificent spontaneous reception
came to an end, and then Mr.. Taylor, in a
dignified and vigorous mapner, in itself
convincing, made his speech of acceptance,
saying:
Fellow Republicans: I esteem this nomina-
ton great honor for more reasons than one
In the first place. in looking at your faces |
see before me a body of intelligent representa-
tive men-representative of the great princi-

applause which evolved into a storm OF
cheers and shouts expressive of the en-
thuSiasm felt for the Supervisor who has
made such an enyiable record within the
past two years. When the demonstration
had subsided sufficiently Mr.. Ash con-
tinued as follows:
The gen ntleman whom have named is known
as one OF the most honest Supervisors the City
has ever had. He has represented the City
and County of San Francisco in q most honor
able and satisfactory manner to every citizen.
The Republicans are proud of his record, and
l pledge you, gentlemen, that if he is nomin.
ated here tonight he will lead us to honor and
success.
Martin Stevens of the Thirty-ninth AS
sembly District seconded the nomination
in an eloquent speech, which still further
stirred the convention. He said:
Mr.. Chairman, gentlemen and fellow Repub-
llcans II looks as ii we are going to have a
little fight here, ana that is what we like be-
cause 1t will be fair fight and the best man

ing the nomination of Charles L. Taylor.
The immortal Lincoln said: "You can fool
some OF the people all the time, you can fool
all OF the people some OF the time. but you
cant fool all the people all the time"
If Lincoln were here and he knew Charles L.
Taylor he would be standing on this platform
and pointing his index finger at him and say
ing that through all his long and honorable
lite he never fooled any of the people any OF
the time.
Here is man who can unite the Republican
party OF this City and County, and the Repub-
llcan who cannot vote for him deserves to be
1ncontinently kicked out af his party
We have divisions in this County; we have q
great newspaper which ought 10 be supporting
the regular Republican organization. If in all
the wide domain of this State, if from the top
most corner of the State to the bottom, if in
any place there is one man who owes the Re-
publican party his unfaItering fealty and
strongest support. it is Michael Henry de
Young
Against the sentiments of the State, against
every portion of it; against the sentiments of
the City and County, the then Republican
organization sent its delegates to Sacramento,
and they voted for him for United States Sem
ator first, last and all the time. If there is a
man who should vote this ticket, and par
ticularly if Charles L. Taylor is nominated it
is Mr.. de Young. If he does not support him
he is no longer a Republican, and the senti-
ments he expresses in his paper are not Re
publican sentiments. (Cheers and applause
This is a most important Office. II the charter
is adopted the Mayor will appoint nearly all
the officers in this City and County. 1t be-
hooves us, then, to elect the Mayor if we wish
to save the City from the corrupt spoliation OF
Democratic misrule, that has burdened it so
long.
Taylor can win, and we want to win, and I
believe that the other convention will be GER
tain to nominate him.
He reviewed the record of the Supervisor

ton is but fraction even on paper, with
out support or backing OF any consider
able mum Der OF Republicans of this Citv.
and which pretends to have organized for
municipal and county purposes.
"That pretense Is founded upon the pro-
ceedlngs had Tor the purpose of nominat-
ing Congressman and Presidential electors
in the several Congressional districts of
the State. Their organization had its in
ceptlon IN call issued by the Nation al
Committee for the election of delegates in
the several Congressional districts
throughout the whole country for the pur-
pose OF nominating Congressman and
PRESIDENTIAL Electors. That call of itself,
however, distinctly recognized the sepa-
rate and legal existence OF the State Cen
traI Committees in the different States.
and IN this State the call was not consid
ered OF Itself operative, but was given
effect only through the action of the State
Central Committee in this State.
"At the time of the issuance of the call
OF the National Committee there were no
existing Congressional committees save in
one district. The Fourth and Fifth Con-
gresslonal districts were without Con-
gresslonal committees. The State Central
committee, in order to give effect to the
call OF the National Committee, adopted
q resolution whereby the members of the
State Central Committee residing in the
several Congressional districts had dele
gated TO them the power to select and
appoint the Congressional Committee for
each district, and by that means the ex-
isting Congressional. District Committees
were called into existence. No conflict as
TO the selection of those Congressional
Committees occurred in any district in the
State, save IN the Fourth.
In that district, at two separate meet
ingsZof the State Central Committeeman
residing therein, two separate Congress
sional committees were chosen and con-
fiict arose as to which of those Congress
s1onal committees was regularly chosen.
"Ihe purpose of the call of the National
Com mlttee was as l have stated. namely,
to provide for the nomination of Congress
men, Presidential electors and delegates to
the National Convention. The National

tory included in the Fifth Congressional
District constitutes considerably more
than one-third of the City and County oi
San Francisco
1T has never been known in the history
OF either the Democratic or Republican
parties that the Congressional convention
had power to call a municipal convention.
That power emanates from the County
committee and from no other source.
This has been the rule and the precedent
OF both political parties from time imme-
mortal.
"Our convention was called by this
County Committee, elected two years ago,
and whose legality has never beeli ques-
toned and Is not even now being qhes-
toned. The powers of that committee
continue to exist until it's successors are
elected and qualified. The two years oi
the term of the County Committee have
not yet expired"
Judge Henry c. DibbIe, on being asked
for his professional opinion on the sub
iect. replied:
ITO my mind there can be no question
whatever as to the legality of the Repub-
lIcan convention presided over by Thomas
ID. Riordan, and the County Committee
OF which Mr. Manwaring is chairman. II
is unQuestioDably the only legal County
Com mittee in existence. 1t has received
its powers by direct transmission from the
County COMMITTEES which preceded il, and
so on back through the history of the Re-
publican party in San Francisco for many
years.
'At the last general election in San
francisco the candidates nominated by
the convention which constituted the
present County Committee were recognized
by the Election Commissioners. and were
placed upon the ticket as the regular NOM
inees of the Republican party, and there
is no reason In the world why the nom
inees OF the present convention should not
be SO regarded and treated by the Registrar
and the Election Commissioners, aside
from any division that may or may moi
exist among Republicans IN San Fran
cisco.
ut seems to me to be beyond any ques-
tion that the Main waring County Commit
tee is the only one in existence"
]. Ava Watt said:
THE present County Committee, OF
which Mr.. Manwaring is chairman, is the
regular successor of its predecessor, the
County Committee which called into ex-
istence the convention held in 1894. That
County Committee was the successor of its
predecessors called into existence and or
ganized in the same manner during a
period of many years.
THE legal existence and authority oi
the county committees so organized, ex.
listing and succeeding each other, has
never been questioned in the political his
tory of the State. The line OF succession
is undisputed and cannot be attacked upon
any legal ground, the proof of which is
that no attack has been made upon it, ex.
cept by the present so-called Kelly
Mahoney faction of the party, which fac

When the applause following Stevens

for ''Taylor!' "Colonel Taylorp All the

u want 10 say, sir. that Mr. Taylor halls

third, whereupon the house gave vent to a
rusty cheer. The name of Colonel TAYLOR
was placed before the convention by the
chairman, who shouted, 'There is no
creed IN this organization. This conyen-
ton IS above creed lit knows none. -
There was laundering "aye" in response
ana Colonel Taylor was declared the regu-
lar hepuDican nominee for Mayor of the
City and County of San Francisco.
As Colonel TAYLOR was not present the
chair appointed John NJ. Chretien, Robert
Ash and Martin Stevens as a com mittee
TO escort him to the convention hall, so
that he could appear before the delegates
and indorse the platform.
William H. Schooier of the Forty-first

and long cheering. The galleries went
fairly wild, and when the din at last su b.
