ANTI-FUSIONISTS.
Afternoon Caucus Of the Middle
of-the-Road Members.

A caucus of the middle-of-the-road
men was held between . and o'clock
in the afternoon, at which was discuss
ed plans for the future.
The opinion prevailed that the vote
on the Craftsmanship was a test of the
strength of the fusionists and anti
fusionists. Several members favored
the plan of sitting still and declining to
vote on nominations. thus escaping the
unpleasant situation of being bound by
any action of the convention. Others
ccntended that the middle-of- the-roa
people ought to make a strong fight to
nominate straight Populists, and
thought there was a chance to win out
Stewart of San Bernardino said the
delegation he represented had been in
structed to vote for fusion with all re-
form parties, but he did not know how
they were to carry out their instruc-
tions, as there was nobody present to
fuse with.
He was informed that the Democratic
State Central Committee would be here
in the evening. but he took the position
that no committee could by its action
bind either a subsequent convention or
the rank and file of the party it rep
resented. AS there was no other re-
form element with which to fuse he

The weather and crop summary for
the week ending July 18th is as fol-
lows:
With the exception of thunder show
ers near Los Angeles on the 4th and
sprinkles on the Sth, and at Independ-
ence on the 9th, no rain fell in Cali
fornia during the week. Throughout
most of the State the conditions were
normal. The temperature also was
nearly normal
Frequent fogs along the central and
northern coast kept the temperature
below the normal in those sections. The
weather has been favorable, and fruits
have recovered somewhat from the ef-
fects of the norther Of the preceding
week
Grain harvesting is nearing compile

lowed wheat has done fairly we'll Al

poor.
Fruits suffered by the high north
winds, and, in addition to those blown
from the tree, many, especially plums,
were bruised. Pears and peaches will
make a fair crop.
Grapes are abundant and the yield
will be large, although in some places
the effects of dry weather are evident.

PLATFORM.
The Committee Wrestles With
Many Old Problems.

The Committee on Platform and Res
olutions met in the Supreme Court
room last evening, and proceeded to
business by appointing five sub-com-
mittees, as follows:
Direct observation-disclosures, Dittmar
and Carlson.
Finance Cornell, Mouser and
Sprague.
Railroads and Nicaragua Canal
Kinne, McKune and Davis.
War = Mason, Cleveland and Cum
mings.
Taxation and Labor-Barker, Girls
wald and Warboy.
The several b-committees lost no
time in getting to work, and every OBJ
tainable Populist platform evolved by
past conventions, whether long or
short was carefully considered. After
the subcommittee had finished their
labors the committee went into execu-
tive session to consider the several res
olutions.
The proposed preamble was brief but
emphatic, and was as follows:
THE Peoples party of the State of
California, realizing the urgent neces-
sity of reform in State and nation, re-
affirm our convictions in the principles
enunciated in our national platform at
St. Louis.
The proposed resolution touching the
much-talked- about referendum called
for "a lengthy discussion. AS handed
in by the subcommittee, it was as fol-
lows:
I'VE declare Government by represen-
tatiyes a failure, unless the people re-
tain the right to veto bad legislation
and to initiate and vote upon proposed
laws directly; and we therefore demand
an amendment to the Constitution, pro-
viding:
"First-That any law or ordinance
adopted by any legislative body of this
State shall be subject to a popular vote
when demanded by a properly authen-
ticated petition signed by a reasonable
per cent. of the electors of the State,
county or municipality, as the case may
be, and if such vote shall show a ma
jority against the law or ordinance, 1t
shall be invalid.
tSecOnd-That on petition of ten per
cent. of the electors of the State, coun-
ty or municipality, as the case may be-
the respective legislative bodies shall
submit to the electors therein, any
question, the submission of which has
been demanded by the petition, or shall
submit to them for their approval,
law, a constitutional amendment or
ordinance containing such provisions as
may be demanded by such petitioners.
This method will enable the people to
elect their own laws as well as their
servants, and will give them complete
proportional representation.
"Third-That when the legislation has
been adopted as herein provided by the
people, no legislative body shall have
the right to nullify such Act without
the consent of the people given at the
polls.
"Fourth-That when the qualified
electors of the State, county, city or
municipality thereof shall have cast a
majority vote upon any question so
submitted to them, such majority vote
shall settle and determine whether the
same is adopted, rejected or appealed" !"
The committee labored until after
midnight, but without coming to any
agreement as to the platform.

A DESERVED COMPLIMENT.

Supt. Howard.

The following notice from the West
ern Journal of Education" the official
paper of the State educational system,
pays a deserved compliment to an earn
est and painstaking official Of this
county:
Superintendent B. F. Howard of Sac
ramento County has the honor of hav-
ing the neatest set of Superintendents
records in the State. He has devised
his own method. 1t is simple, accurate
and effective. Many Superintendents
and others who have seen his books
praise the system. superintendent
Howard's scheme includes a system
of class reports from every school in
the county which show the records of
any pupil in Sacramento County at a
glance He began the system some
years ago, and the bound volumes make
a very interesting and valuable rec
ord /"

and before night George w. Baker,
Chairman of their State Central Com
mittee, handed in his resignation,
which was accepted, and J. n. Phillips
of Los Angeles was elected Chairman
pro tenn. in his stead.
1t seems that some members OF the
committee thought Baker had not act
ed precisely right in affiliating with
the middle of -the-road Populists in the
interest of Shanahan, who expected the
nomination for Governor at the hands
of the straight-out Populist faction OF

.FUSIONISTS SET THE PACE.
Continued from Third Page.)

After the announcement of the COM
mittee at ] o'clock, a recess was taken
until o'clock.
AFTER RECESS.
1t was 4:40 clock, instead OF ., Wnen
the convention was again called TO or
der Though the Committee on Gre
dentials consumed a large slice OF time
in making it's report, very few changes
were made from the original roll-call.
The contest waged by the friends OF
W. T. Hamilton of Sacramento was de-
cided against him, and j. d. Moynahan
retained the seat.
The report was received by the con-
vention and considered at some length.
Another half-hour was consumed in
making corrections and substituting
the names Of alternates for delegates,
after which the corrected report was
unanimously adopted.
In connection with the adoption of
the report, Gator offered a resolution
providing for the election of one mem
Der from each Congressional District
as a Committee on Rules and Order OF
Business, and two members from each
Congressional District as Commit
tee on Platform and Resolution. Inc
resolution was adopted.
Next. Mr. Gator offered a resolution
providing that proxies be not allowed
and that delegates from counties whose
delegations were not full be allowed
to cast the full vote of the county in
ratio of the opinions of delegates pres
ent.
The resolution met with strong op-
position, and A. B. Kinne moved that
ha n the Committee on
Rules, when the latter should be ap-
pointed.
Mr.. Gator said his intention in in
Producing the resolution was to carry
out the methods heretofore upheld by
the Populist party, and urged a vote
on the matter Proxies, he said, have
never been allowed in Populist con-
ventions
Kline said there were two questions
in the resolution, and he thought the
delegates of counties should be allowed
to settle among themselves whether the
unit rule should or should not pre-
vail
The motion to refer to the committee
was lost.
An amendment to Gators resolution,
providing that delegates present from
any county holding proxies from any
delegates from that county be allowed
to vote them, created a long and wear
isome debate, and was finally lost, after
which Gators resolution was adopted.
At $50 o'clock a recess was taken
to allow the several Congressional Dis
trict delegations to select members for
the several committees, in accordance
with Gators resolution regulating the
matter.
The following members We're elected
by their respective Congressional dele
cations, as members of the Committee

SILVER REPUBLICANS.
They Appear to be in a Hard Row
of Stumps.

The Silver Republican party, so far
as could be learned last night, was cut

Convention. While many of the Pop
ulist delegates came to Sacramento
with instructions to fuse with any old
reform organizations. provided the lat

ciples, individual members Of the con-
veution look at the Silver Republicans
out of the corners of their eyes and
steer clear of them.
