CONVENTION PREPARATIONS
Republicans to Meet at Los
Angeles.
SATISFACTORY ARRANGEMENTS ARE GUARANTEED
The Convention Is to Be Held In the
Hazard Pavilion Which Will
Seat Five Thousand.
Los ANGELES, Cal, April 12, 1900.

Los ANGELES, Cal, April IL, 1900.
When the Biennial session of the
Convention of the California League of
the Republican Clubs that meets in
Los Angeles April 9th and 28th shall
have closed. the hands of the Republi-
can party of the State will have been
strengthened. So much enthusiasm
exists IN this Presidential year through
out California, and so gratifying are
the reports that come to the Los Ange-
les Executive Committee that has the
arrangements for the Convention In
charge, that the prediction long since
made this Convention would prove the
largest club gathering in the history of
of the State and the most successful
Convention of the League, will be veri-
fed.
In order to meet this emergency in
response TO the request for the Repub-
lican workers to come to the Conven-
ton City of the Southland, the EXecu-
tive Committee has devised every
method of entertainment that will con-
duce TO the pleasure of the 1900 dele
gates, with families, that are expected.
The citizens of Los Angeles, without
regard to party, have patriotically re-
spOnded to the call for funds to meet
the necessary outlays that conven-
tion of this magnitude entails. There
FORE the Executive Committee is able
to say that every item of expense for
Convention Hall, music. decoration,
headquarters, badges, ETC., will be
met, and that delegates will not be
called upon for a single dollar to meet
any expense, much less Il deficit.
The Convention will be held in Haz-
ard S Pavilion, that is capable of COM
fortably seating 5000 persons. The
decorators, using as adjuncts the trop-
ical growths and fora of this section,
with Old Glory, bunting and shields,
have been instructed to turn the inter-
ior into immature pagoda OF colors.
For the convenience of the working
force of the Convention, two official
headq uarters have been secured. The
Westminster Hotel will be devoted to
the needs of the State Executives,
while the working force of the local
Executives and general headquarters
for all visitors, will be in the rooms of
the League, $50 South Spring street,
within easy reach of every hotel and
public building.
Too much stress cannot be placed
upon the special railroad rate that has
been granted by the railroads. This
rate is one and one-third fare for the
round trip from any part of the State
TO Los Angeles. The tickets for the
going trip may be purchased north of
Mojave and Ellwood on The certificate
plan from on and after April 18th. All
railroad agents are fully informed as to
the provisions of the special rate, and
they will give all information when re-
quested. In Southern California the
rate is an ''open rate and goes on sale
April 9th to April 18th. These tick
cts can be secured by delegates and
their families as we'll as by their friends.
No distinction is drawn: the rate is
open to every one.
One guarantee is given that all dele
gates and their friends will find ample
hotel accommodations. Los Angeles
possesses beyond $50 lodging houses and
hotels on the European plan. Accom-
modatiOns can be secured from 81 a
day to as high figure as one cares to
expend. Los Angeles. as Convention
City, has never been taxed, and she is
we'll able to handle any crowd that may
come within her gates in response to an
Invitation. This feature of material
welfare to man is no small element con-
ductive to his pleasure; hence, the
convention management feels that
nothing will be lacking in the way of
creature comforts.
AS all clubs have received the neces-
sary blanks for delegate representation,
the need is apparent that early re-
sponse be made that the vast details of
the convention may be speedily ad-
justed. Any information desired can
be procured by addressing Major NJ.

mittee, Los Angeles, California.
