SAN JOSE, Aug. 12.-The delegates of the Coed Government League will repudiate the Req Republican county convention and with a full list of dele gates nominated by the league organize a convention of their own at Ruther- ford Hall tomorrow morning. This ac- ton was unanimously sanctioned by large and enthusiastic meeting of the Good Government League this after noon. Not only this, but the league will send it's Congressional and State delegations to Sacramento to contest the seating of the Req delegates. The grounds on which the contests will be made are ballot-box stufing, illegal voting of Democrats and other gross election frauds. Stirring speeches were made and at times the applause was so loud at the meeting as to be heard down on the street.
 This action of the Good Government League, if sanctioned by the State Gen. traI Committee and State convention, will prove the death kneH to Jim Reaism in Santa Clara County. Honest and independent Republicahs ana tils public generally, since the expose or ballot-box stufhng and frauds perpe- trated by the Req forces at Wednes- days primaries, have urged that the league do this.
 The Good Government League meet ing this afternoon was long ana en- thusiastic.
