THE FIGHT FOR PLACE.
Beginning of a Warm Struaafe Among
 California Republicans.

Sacrame ento, Cal, Aug. 2?.-The re- publican state convention, which was ralled to order shortly after noon to- day, promises to develop into a lively scrimmage for the control of the party in California. Involved directly or in directly in the fight are most of the big republicans of the state, including Major Frank Mclaughlin, chairman of the state committee, who is striving for the overthrow of James Req of San Jose. regarded generally as the most formidable party boss on the Pa cific coast, MT. Spreckels, who has his own reasons for mixing in the contest, and Senator White. The convention will nominate full state ticket to be voted for at the November elections The choice of gubernatorial nominee depends upon which faction of the con- venuon gains the ascendancy. There are no fewer than a dozen aspirants for the honor those most prominently mentioned being Henry T. Gage of Los Angeles, L. H. Bro WI of San Francisco, Charles M. Fe!ton of San Diego. and Thoma-; Flint and George A. Knight, between whom the voters of the northern part of the state are di- vided.
 Though Cages nomination for gov ernor is now regarded as inevitable. Brown is still full of hope and deter imitation. He announces his belief that he will be the winner. He counts on rallying all of Pardee's supporters and enough of the other delegations to nominate him on the third ar fourth ballot. All of the southern California contingent remain as compact as the old Greek phalanx and are arrayed solidly behind Gage. With San Fran cisco. Santa Clara. Monterey, San Luis Obispo and Fresno delegations for allies it would seem as though Cages position is TOW invincible. The convention was fl session less than five minutes tonight. just long enough to allow the secretary to read out the list of letters lying on his desk for delegates and for Chairman Neff to "nnoUnce the usual committees.
