There are tricks in all trades. II C.
Alger, the democratic nominee for gov
ernor. has for several years been a di-
rector of the First National bank of
Sheridan. and his name has appeared
as such officer in the advertisements of
this institution appearing in the Sheri-
dan newspapers. Strange to say, how
ever. we notice that in the bank adver,
,iscment appearing in the Post last
week, Mr.. Ayers name has been elm
mated from its list of directors. 1t is
apparent from the tommyrOt already
published in the Boomerang and one
or W other papers that our democratic
friends will attempt to prejudice the
people of the state against DeForest
Richards IN the ground that he is a
banker-and of curse it wouldn't look
just right to criticise him for being the
president of a bank while their own
candidate was also the director of a
like Observation-Disclosures Budget.

profit by any such thing. (Ap- plause. 1 can say no more, fel- low delegates, to this convention. My record IS known in the south. It Is known to a certain extent to the members of the Democracy in other portions of the State.

 "We are assembled here upon great and momentous occasion. It is the first time that the De- mocracy of California has met since the great convention ot I8o6. We are assembled as Democrats to face the present and the future. We have great

of the late Judge Campbell, and with flowing beard that so closely resembled the whiskers of the Judge that all were at once reminded of the bearded auto crat of the Police Court of San Fran cisco. The whiskers simply arose to get the breeze from the electric fans which were so beautifully eulogized in Mayor Lands address of welcome to the delegates.
 A little commotion under the banner of San Francisco attracted general notice. Perhaps some of the rural delegates fancied that Foote and McNab might be again exchanging opinions; but all prospect of anything so exciting van ished when word went round that the Harney delegates were moving from the position immediately in front of the chairman's desk to a side section of the pavilion. This change of base was made at the special request of the pa vilion committee, and did not involve the sacrifice of single Democratic principle.
 At 2:50 p. m. MT. Afford, chairman of the Democratic State Central Commit tee, gave the convention the glad rap to order and made brief speech. out lining the purposes of the meeting. After Mayor Land of Sacramento well comed the delegates the band played the Star Spangled Banner" The dele gates arose in their places with some reluctance and indecision. The exhi- bition of patriotism as manifested by the scant applause was feeble indeed. It was obvious to all the onlookers that many of the delegates here assembled have not the slightest spark of national patriotism and that the story of the flag Is not to them an inspiring theme. It was remarked In the lobby Wait until next week and hear the Republi- can cheers for the flag when the Star Spangled Banner" is played by the band.
 P. W. Carmichael of Sacramento now caught the gaze of the chairman. When the Sacramentan produced something in writing every one was eager to know what that something was. It turned out to be an announcement list or the temporary officers, other than the

danger line that he was interrupted on points of order McNab was not in- terrupted, but at the close of his re- marks he was jeered by some of the in terior delegates.
 While Major Harney was speaking a deep sonorous tone rolled over the con- vention. It came from the direction of the Amador delegation. Governor Budd looked that way and simultaneously a form rising from the mountain group rolled out the words to assist recogni- tion, "Muldoon of Amador." The name, the time, the place and the tone all tended to give special force to the cpl sode The humor was soon caught and the convention had a good laugh, in which some of the rising wrath was drowned.
 One delegate from Alameda County, who evidently came to the convention to be soothed or inspired by oratory, rose several times to implore the chair man to call out R. M. Fitzgerald. No special reason was given why MT F1tZ- gerald should cast his eloquence into the arena. but the Alameda man was irrepressible The dulcet tones of Deu- prey the fervor of Ed Leake, the ring ing cry of Harney were not to his lik- ing. He wanted Fitzgerald and Gov ernor Budd promised that Fitzgerald should have a chance. There Is sure to be one happy mortal on this sphere when Fitzgerald speaks.
 A resolution by MT. Tarpey, supple mented by a resolution by MT. Heney, against the use of proxies in the State Central Committee, called out great ap- plause.
 MT Afford moved that the chair ap- point a committee of seven on fusion. A point of order against the considera- tion of the subject in advance of per manent organization was sustained. Recess was taken until p. m.
 The convention reassembled at 9 o'clock, but the evening session resulted in little more than few spiritless speeches. Half the delegation remained down town, knowing that nothing would be accomplished until the com- mittees reported. The convention ad- iourned to meet st 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
 CALL HEADQUARTERS, Sacramento, Aug 16-At 2:50 p. m. the convention was called to order by Chairman Afford of the State Central Committee, who said:
 Gentlemen of the Conven- tion: It is a pleasure to me, as chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee. to call this great convention of dele gates to order. 1 will make no speech. I do not propose to take up your time at this hour by mak- ing any extensive remarks. All 1 have to say is that Democrats meeting upon the floor of con vention should bear in mind the fact that we do not disagree upon

questions before us, and 1 know when 1 look over this convention that we may have the confidence and fellow feeling of all in this re- juvenated Democracy standing upon that second declaration of human rights, the platform of Chicago in 1896. Prolonged ap- plause and cheers.
 "The Democracy has offered itself as a rallying point to all the reformed forces of this country. (Applause.) We shall welcome to our ranks all those who can not find resting place in that party which has become the champion of the aggregated wealth and the corporate greed of the United States.

Dock weller has stood, as I have stood, upon one side of that question; and therefore, in view of the wide publicity which has been given to the unfortunate occurrences Of the caucus of the Los Angeles delegation last night, 1 desire to say to you, that while I retract not one word of anything that l then uttered in regard to my ut ter condemnation of practices that there took place, I absolute ly know that 1t was not the desire or wish of Mir.

Lack of Patriotism a Significant Feature of the Initial Incidents
 of the Session.

CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Aug. 16.-The delegates began to assemble at the Agricultural Pavil- ion an hour before the time appointed for the meeting in convention. The first view of the beautifully festooned interior of the pavilion was delightful to the delegates and called forth ex- pressions of admiration. The tempera- ture of the atmosphere inside was agreeable and very little complaint was heard.
 As one glanced about to see the pie lures on the platform in the back ground and study incidentally the story of Democratic statesmen, one was surprised if not stunned to observe that the likeness of Grover Cleveland was not there. George Washington quite as big as life. was therC. Ste phen M. White. as large as George Washington and perhaps twice as natural, flanked I've Father of Our Country on the left, a. one faced the audience. Next on the right of Wash ington was a picture of Governor Budd, and still further along to the right near a draped national flag was the portrait of Colonel William J. Bryan. All the pictures were framed.
 The hour of assembly, which imme diateIy precedes the o~ening session of a convention, is as dear to the politi clan as the twilight hour is to the poet. County delegations were reviewed by d-timers and comment made as to the men who were foremost in political gatherings in the years when the name of Irwin, Hager, Haight, Farley, Lewis, Laine, Howard and Pendergast added luster to the record. It was noted that John Boggs, W. w. Foote, M. F. Tar pay and J. Marion Brooks still respond ed to the rollcall of the faithful.
 During the waiting, when nearly all the delegates had occupied the places assigned to them, there arose in the San Francisco group a form not unlike that

any fundamental principle of De- mocracy. We agree upon all the fundamental principles Of De mocracy. We agree upon the fundamental principles Of De mocracy, and there can be no dis agreement inside of a Democratic convention except possibly upon questions involving methods, and those can be settled by conven- tions; and 1t is the rule of De mocracy that the minority shall accede to the will of the majority and abide by the decision. (Ap- plause.
 "I know not what the verdict of this convention will be upon any subject, but l know that, so far as I am concerned, 1 will set an example, so far as 1 can possi- ply do so, by promising now that so far as I am individually con cerned, whatever the judgment of this convention may be upon any proposition, that shall be my judgment and my verdict, and l hope that there will be no dis senting from that proposition. l now have the honor, gentlemen of the convention, of introducing to you the Mayor of Sacramento Mayor Land"
 Applause and cheers.)
 Mayor Land took the platform and said:
 MT. Chairman and Gentleman of the Conventional affords me great pleasure to meet with you here to-day for the first time in the history of my political life In Sacramento The people of Sacramento to-day feel very proud in seeing such a body of representative people as are a5- sembled here, because 1t does us honor. We have done everything that we pos sibly could do to make Sacramento as pleasant for you as possible, And I will say that at our meeting in San Francisco. where the citizens of Sacramento city met the Democratic committee, we were very heartily received and were given every ovation that was possible to make the people feel as if they were at home. We made promises to you gentlemen that if you would come to our city we would ar range for your entertainment and com fort. We promised you everything but cool weather, but we promised to give you electric fans here, which we have done, to cool your sweltering brows. We want you to go away feeling that we were your
