THE GOVERNOR TALKS.
Governor Budd being vociferously called
for responded in his usual style, as fol-
lows:
1T is long past the dining hour and
I know that the delegates TO TINS con,
Vention desire to go to their hotels and
get something to eat. and | am afraid,
from the experience of the afternoon, that
/ might have time called me did /
proceed to make any remarks.
Gentlemen, four years ago. without
having been a candidate UP to a week
prior to the meeting of the convention
j was induced to permit myself to become
q candidate for Governor of this State
/ was nominated. After a hard fight and
after one OF the hardest canyasses in the
State, / was elected as Governor of the
State Of California on a platform pro-
mulgated by a Democratic State Conven-
ton.
Il have endeavored to carry out that
platform as best / could. understand
as thoroughly as any one that it is alb
soiutely impossible to give satisfaction
everywhere. and not to err. A man of
my disposition, my temperament, my feel
enemies ard sometimes disappoint friends.
But. in all that l have done. | have en-
deaovred to carry out the pledges that
/ took, which were simply the matter OF
economy in the administration of this
State, and the prevention of the railroad
company from obtaining legislation in it's
interest. There is mot a man here that
has not known that during my admins
tration l have made these endeavors.
Whether or not | have carried them out
it is for somebody else to say.
Il our years ago L entered the cam
vas strong and vigorous. To-day you
find, while / have got pretty good voice.
whether or not l ever see another Dem
ocratic convention is a matter of the
gravest doubt, which doctors must de-
CA delegate: There is lots of good in
you yetrO
wei, / will stick to the last, any
way. / propose. during the coming cam
paign, to support the nominee of this
convention as vigorously as my health
will permit, and / advise the Democrats
here, in their proceedings from now on.
to have the same honor that has pre-
vailed in this hot and bitter contest from
San Francisco.
Really, | am sorry to leave you, but
! am more pleased at laying down. before
Governor than / was four years ago in
being nomina ted. And, while ] shall help
the Democratic nominee to the extent of
my power, | pity him from the bottom of
my heart for the misery he will suffer for
four years. Qaughter) And gentlemen.
] hope that the Committee on Platform
that is about to be appointed will put one
plank in and that is: The latch-string
does not hang out.
