ALAMEDA CONTEST
Before the Committee on Credentials
at the Senate Chamber.

The Committee on Credentials ap-
pointed by the Republican State Con-
vention held a lively session last night,
which lasted far into the morning. The
meeting was held in the Senate Cham
ber of the Capitol building, and it was
packed with parties interested in the
outcome of the several contests.
The Alameda County contest was first
called, and DR.. Pardee was the first
speaker introduced to present an ar
gument for the contesting delegation:
He stated that a Committee of Con-
ference had been appointed by the Re-
publicans of Alameda County to make
arrangements for the holding of pri-
maries. Every voting precinct in the
county had been represented except
two, and later on these two precincts
requested to be represented, which was
allowed.
The Committee of Conference had
visited the County Central Commit
tee, and attempted TO negotiate with it
for the holding of primaries, but it was
repulsed. Therefore there was nothing
else left for the committee to do except
to order primaries held.
Accordingly, primaries were called
except two. Nearly 1000 votes were
cast at that primary election, and there
was no contest at the time Four
years ago no more votes were cast at
the primaries than at the recent cleo
tions, and at the time there was a con-
test. The primaries were called by
Republicans. Delegates were selected
bv the votes of these same Republicans
4IoD ~
ing only for what was theirs by right
1t had always been the custom in
Alameda County to have delegates Sc
Iected by primaries, and he pointed
out that the statutes set up the point
that the custom of localities should
rule in the selection of delegates.
e. K Taylor. member of the State
| Central Committee, Chairman of the
Third Congressional District Commit
tee. and City Attorney of Alameda, was
the first speaker for the regularly ap
pointed delegates.
He declared that DR.. Pardee was not
at all familiar with the facts in the
case. The facts in the case had been
thoroughly sifted by the Congressional
Committee, which had concluded that
the primary delegates were not enti-
fled to seats in the convention, and
the State Central Committee had de-
clared that the Congressional Com
nnittee represented the Republican
party in the district.
The statement made by DR.. Pardee
that all Republican clubs in the county
| except two were represented in the
| conference committee was false in
every particular. Not one half of the
clubs in the county had been repre-
sented and many of those which were
so represented had only recently been
| formed.
| The further statement made by DR.
Pardee that primaries had been held
| in every precinct except two, was also
false AS a matter of fact, at many
polling places primaries had not been

the case be submitted on the statement
made by Judge Henley.
That did settle it, and Mr.. Henley
and the other contestants looked fool
ish, but had nothing more to say.
Charles T. Jones, who was present to
represent the regularly appointed dele
gates, tried for a hearing, but was asked
if he was not satisfied that the regular
iy appointed delegation represented by
him had already been seated. Mr.. Jones
expressed himself as being fully salts
fed and stepped back.
But Hon. Finlay K. Dray was not sat
isfied, and said so very emphatfcally.
Judge Henley had intimated that he,
as Chairman of the COuntyCentral Com
mittee, had said that an honest pri-
mary could not be held in the city He
had said nothing of the kind. He had,
however, said that he opposed holding
any more primaries unless they were
held under the law.
This seemed to open the case again
end it was decided to take the matter
under advisement, and settle the diff
Guilty in executive session.
This was merely a matter Of form,
which was at first agreed to by the COM
mittee, and as a delegation the contest
ants virtually ceased to exist from that
moment on.

He was their idol and had a dissenting
voice been raised in opposition to his
nomination it would have evidently been
the worse for the owner of said voice.
The nomination was by acclamation,
and it is needless to say unanimous.
Then Hervey Lindley of Los Angeles
and Tom A. Field of Monterey were
chosen for delegates to the National
Convention; T. J. Flint of Monterey and
w. H. Barnes of Ventura being elected
alternates without opposition.
AS a last effort Elwood Cooper of
Santa Barbara was chosen for Presi-
dental Elector by acclamation, and the

Bought at an Old Hoss Sale.
NEW YORK, Jan. 20.-The most
complete green goods outfit ever
discovered has been captured here
by purchase at public auction. The
outfit, which comprises 100000 cir
culars, $4,000 addressed envelopes,
"a, ZOO names Of possible victims,
seventy state and seventy Brad
street directories, together with
fifteen books furnishing the key to
the system OF operations, was for
merly the property of the McNally
gang, which until about a year ago
operated in Jersey City.
The outfit figured in raid by the
Jersey City police year or more
ago, but the forty members OF the
gang escaped with the exception Of
three, and five tons Of the outfit
were shipped to Bridgeport, Conn.
This was chiefly in circulars. The
rest of the stuff was stored in a
Broadway warehouse, in several
large cases. AS storage was not
promptly paid 1t was sold at auc-
tion and bought by man named
Hoodenbeek, who did not know
what the boxes contained. Some
of the gang heard Of the sale Of the
goods and opened negotiations fol
their purchase, which led to the
seizure of the lot.
