The campaign committee selected by Mr.
Gage does not seem TO meet the approval OF
many Republicans. From this part Of the
state Mr.. Gage appointed the notorious
wire-puller and relic Of the Lindley push.
w. r. x. Parker. In the northern part OF
the state he found his double in James Alva
Watt Of San Francisco. In due time 1t is
expected that the Times Of this city will
say a word about Parker, II 1t does not say
anything about Mr. Gage.

Gossip says that Con Mallory Is running
the district attorneys Office in the interest
OF Sheriff Burr and his candidacy for sher-
If. It is said that Mallory is working the
livery bill racket upon the county. Mallory
is the special deputy for the district attor-
ney's Office and does the subpoenaing act.
and, Of course, hires liveries, for which the
county pays. or has paid. For the last
north It would seem that Con has been
doing some politics on the side. and has
charged UP the political livery bill to the
county. Mallory denies the charge. and the
matter will have to be determined BY q

M. H. de Young, in a communication to
| the Examiner of the 4th inst, says he Is
not candidate for United States senator.
Few people who know the activity Of Mr..
De Young for the last three months and the
interest which he has taken in the Repub-
llcan state convention, and the manipula-
tion which he is now carrying on to secure
q solid Republican representation from
San Francisco in the legislature, will take
his statement as the whole truth. That
Mr.. De Young will be candidate, II the
| legislature shall be Republican, goes with
out saying. He has been a candidate for
the last twenty years. ard will be until he
passes away.

Speaking Of the Gage meeting last SAT-
urday night, the San Francisco Call says:
| Countless thousands Ct people
|
Angeles today and tonight, to render
fitting honor to Henry 7. Gage, the Re-
publican nominee for governor.
In the elements OF spontaneity and en-
thusiasm, 1t (the greeting) amounted
to an ovation, in which multitudes
cheered the leader Of the party In a CAM
pagn so auspiciously opened today.
Distance Is said to lend enchantment,

"countleks thousands" "multitudes' and
''ovataons." The man who wrote the above
trash for the Call Is either blind. cannot
count, or does not know the meaning Of
"countless thousands" "multitudes'' and
"ovations."
The Call is authority for the statement
THAT the Republicans of the Fifth congress
sional district will nominate Eugene F..
Loud, incumbent, from San Francisco.
William Craig has already been nominated
by the Democrats. The withdrawal Of Elk
Judge D. J. Murphy leaves the field clear
for Mr.. Loud.
The attention Of voters Is called to the
lfact that If they change their residences
from one precinct to another of the county,
they must have their registrations trans
ferred, which may be done by application
to the county clerk. The transfer must be
made thirty days before the election, which
will be held on the Sth of November. If a
voter changes his residence within the
thirty days preceding the election he will
lose his vote.

The Democratic county convention will
lprobably be held about the goth of this
month at Santa Monica. The Populist and
Silver Republican conventions will be held
at the same place and upon the same day.
The railroad, 1t is understood, will make
the same rate Of fare from all country
points to Santa Monica as to Los Angeles.
A. T. Currier of Spadra will be the Re-
publican nominee for state senator in the
Thirty eighth district e. c. DEMO also
had aspirations for this nomination, but
rumor says. that he was given the colo
shoulder by the Republicans of his dis
trict; in other words, that he was traded
Off in some way in the interests of MIR.
Currier. How much of truth there may
be in this story cannot be accurately de-
/ &.
DEMO has withdrawn from the race, not
because he wanted to, but because he was
not on the slate.
The Democrats of this district have been
canvassing their material for Strong op-
ponent to Mr.. Currer. Several strategists
have given it as their opinion that w. r.
Rowland of Puente is the man to make a
winning race. 1t SO happens that both Mr..
Currier and Mr.. Rowland come from the
same part of the district, and III is said
that the later would make 1t very inter-
esting for Mr.. Currier in Pomona and
vicinity, or the Republican part Of the
district. and that he would distance Mr.
Currer in the Downey and Long Beach
Ipart Of the district.
Since there will be hot fight in this
district, for the election OF United States
senator may depend upon the result, the
