tions, the secretary was instructed to
cast the ballot of the convention for
those two candidates. Nominations for
constable being in order, Mr.. Harris SAID
he thought they could not do better than
to indorse one of the constables nom
mated by the Republicans, since IN this
instance the Republicans had shown
that they sometimes do the right thing.
He referred to George Holloway. Joseph
Simons said he thought the Republicans
had been liberal in nominating George
Holloway. and since Mr.. Holloway was
in no sense a politician, this convention
would be doing the right thing In NOM
mating him for the office. Mr.. Simons
added that Mr.. Holloway did not know
OF their proposed action, saying: I'VE,
| as a reform party, have a higher calling
than mere politicians. We stand before
| the people Of this community for certain
noble and grand principles, and 1t Is not
necessary that we should be soMcitous
to fill every place on the ticket" Mr..
Holloway was accordingly nominated

choice of the convention. On motion,

ter than that, and will be one of six to
raise 100000 to endow the institution.
| This generous offer Of MIR. Hugus',
amounting to $16,666, will very likely be

that there will be no difficulty in find
ing enough other citizens who are inter-
ested in the welfare of Pasadena's fine
school to make up the amount. A prom
inent resident of the city has placed in
escrow deeds to property valued at $780,
900, to be used ultimately for the benefit
