FIRST VOTE NOT A
 TEST OF STRENGTH
Pardee Attaches No Significance to the Election of Eeff
 as Chairman.

SACRAMENTO, Aug. 23.-There is nc particular lesson to be learned nor inference to be drawn from the events of this afternoon on the floor of the convention. The vote as be- tween Jacob Fl. Neff and J. c. Camp bell was not true test of strength between those who are seeking the first place on the ticket. Mr. Neff is a very popular man and is as good as he is popular. He is known and trust ed from one end of the State to the other.
 It is perfectly natural that ma jority of the delegates to the conven- tion should wish to pay him the com pliment of electing him chairman of the convention. Because of this the vote cannot be considered a test vote and cannot be taken as an indication of the result of the contest for the gubernatorial nomination.
 GEORGE c. PARDEE.

whether the campaign committee should adjourn sine die and pass out of exist ence.
 It was moved by Dr. Ragan that no nominations should be made by district conventions for State offices. This was unanimously carried. Then the commit tee indorsed the candidates of the Sacra- mento convention and pledged their sup port, though there was suppressed wrath in the doing of 1t.
 When this part of the pill was swal- lowed the entire committee came together and rendered a vote of thanks to Major Harney for the noble stand he made at Sacramento and for the good work which he undertook in their behalf.
 But one thing the committee did not do and that was to adjourn sine die. This proposition received some discussion and the great majority of the members stood firm in regard to the proposition that the party they represented was the. genuine party and not a faction and that they should continue to exist. After a vote 1t was determined that an adjournment should be taken subject to the call from the chairman for future meetings The entire general committee will De can vassed and the prevailing opinion as to whether the party should organize TOT the municipal fight or not will govern the determination of the campaign committee in regard to the preparation for the battle In the local sea of politics.
 Every indication points toward the or ganization of Major Harney's forces TOT fhe municfDal fight.

CURRY IS ASSURED
 OF THE NOMINATION
Has Been Pledged the Unanimous Vote of the Metropolitan Delegation
 for Secretary of State.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO. Aug. 23.-The San Francisco delegation has asserted itself For the first time in the history of many politi- cal conventions a Republican delegation from the metropolis unites upon a single candidate and as a unit demands a con- cession for any favor 1t may grant.
 At caucus of the San Francisco dele gation held tonight the chairman was instructed by a unanimous vote to cast the 156 votes of the delegation for Charles F. Curry for Secretary of State. Having taken this action. the leaders Of the dele gation announced that if any combina- tions are to be made with San Francisco exchanges will be made for Curr. alone.
 This action is deeply significant ana practically assures the nomination of Curry What effect 1t may have on the candidacy of other aspirants from San Francisco remains to be seen. There are several politicians from the metropolis eagerly looking for the prize offered by the clerkship of the Supreme Court. They are naturally disturbed at the unani- nous support pledged to Curry.
 This pledgs to the County Clerk of San Francisco Is the first great political trade effected since the victory of Ner made the nomination of Henry T. Gage a certainty. The support of abler guber- material candidates became available as trading forces for minor offices on the State ticket, and Curry Is the first to seize the most powerful delegation in the convention.
 Before the convention met this after noon the San Francisco delegation assem- eled to organize and elect permanent of hcers. Percy Beamish was chosen chair man and Henry Sonntag secretary. An adjournment was then taken until this evening at 8 o'clock. At that hour only few delegates appeared and another recess was taken until 10:30 o'clock When the delegation again met nearly all of the delegates were Tn attendance. It was then decided, as indicated, to instruct the chairman to cast the entire vote of the metropolitan delegation for Curry for the position of Secretary of State. The rep resentatives of San Francisco occupy now therefore, position that has very seldom been given to them. They constitute a trading delegation that no leader, however powerful he may be. will dare oppose.

 In regard to the course of the delega- ton toward candidates other than those for Governor and Attorney General, 1t was decided to use such information as might be obtained by investigation of the merits of aspirants. A steering commit tee was therefore appointed to make ob- servations and report to the caucus to- morrow. This committee consists Of A. G. Gassen, Charles Hardy, Dr. H. R. Arndt, E. s. Babcock and Judge B. $. Torrance.
