manded are necessary for a complete
record. Members fail to hear their
names on the first roll call, so they
are given an opportunity to respond
on the second. Then there are usually
a number who find that even after the
second roll call their names are not
recorded and they demand that their
vote be received. This all occupies
much time and il is seldom that a roll
call Of the house can be completed
within 80 minutes.
Various methods have been dis
cussed OF recording the votes without
a member answering verbally to his
name. 1t has been suggested that an
electrical voting machine be adopted
by which the votes can be recorded sill
entity and quickly. All the member
has to do Is to press an electrical but
ton at his desk and his vote Of AYE"
or mo" is registered. 1t is claimed
that such an arrangement would avoid
mistakes, make a more accurate rec
ord and save time which is regarded
as valuable in the house.
In the senate no such innovation is
likely to be countenanced. The upper
body of the national legislature is ex-
tremely conservative and dislikes to
forsake any of its traditions or habits.
It has been called a body without rules
because there is nothing in its code OF
government that restricts debate or
that can force a vote on any question.

HEARST AIDING
"TOM" WATSON
Editor DevOteS Columns to
Praise Of POpulist Nom
inee for the Presidency
Special Dispatch to The Cali.

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Of late there
have cropped out in various quarters.
especially at Esopus and at the Hoff-
man House in this city, inquiries indi-
eating that the sincerity of w. r.
Hearsts professed loyalty to Judge
Parker's candidacy is questionable, to
say the least His newspapers have
contained but halfhearted Endorsements
| of Parker, while complimenting the
Populist candidate, Thomas E. WRt-
son, in unstinted terms. The Joy kal-
/ American of New York devOtes col
umns to Watson's candidacy. 1t is
suspected in some quarters that Hearst
expects Watson to draw heavily from
| the Democratic ranks.
1t has been announced that Watson
will make his campaign chiefly, If not
entirely. in the debatable States. Wat
/ son will devote his energies chiefly to
/ attacking the Democratic party on the
ground given in his speech of accep-
! tance. that it is easier to attack an
1 open foe than it is to tear the mask
from the face of a hidden enemy.
Watson's speech of acceptance is al
| ready being sent broadcast through the
! State as a Republican campaign dOcu-
ment His campaign in New York Will
be under the direction of Melvin G..
Palliser and other anti-Parker men,
who succeeded in getting William j..
Bryan to make a speech attacking Par
! ker in his own State before the St.
Louis convention. These men. several
of whom have worked for each of the
two great parties in former years, are
plentifully supplied with money from
| some mysterious source.
This year Republicans are predicting
that the Populists will poll great vote
in New York. They expect that a large
number of admirers of Bryan will sup
port Watson and that by this means
the Parker vote will be materially re-
duced. The Populist party has disap-
peared in the West, where it arose TO
prominence in 1892, and Watson will
try the experiment of seeking to re-
vive it in the East, especially in the
pivotal States.

SANTA CRUZ. Aug. 23.-There was
one good laugh at the finish Of the pro-
ceedings Of the Democratic State con-
vention when Delegate P. J. Horan Of
the Twenty-ninth Assembly District.

convention adjourns it adjourn in re-
spect 10 the memory Of the Horses and
Carts"
Chairman Dockweiler, who possesses
some tact as a presiding officer, did not
put the motion. but the sentiment was
adopted by common consent
Timothy SDellacy in opening the con-
vention yesterday affronted James H.
O'Brien and Fire Commissioner John
J. Barrett by inadvertently using the
appellation Horses and Carts" in re-
ferring 10 the Democratic League.
When Spellacy was called to account
he remarked that he had never heard
Of the Democratic League.
A printed roll call for the convenience
Of the delegates was produced at the
eleventh hour, but the names thereon
were not called, hence there is no Of
fetal record of the slender attendance.
Business was rushed through this
forenoon 10 tndDlt lAC OElGSdAcS ~ 6CN
out Of town and the Democrats went
away in the August rain. The ten emf
nent high class citizens recommended
for the electoral ticket were readily
nominated. The Congressional nomi-
nations reported were ratified in per-
functOry manner.
J. T. Coonan Of the First District eX-
planned that a committee had been ap-
pointed TO select a nominee for Con-
gress in that district. The Eighth Dis
trict convention found a nominee for
Congress in the person Of DR.. Lucas Of
Santa Barbara County.
Gavin McNab remained in the cOnven-
ton hall until the finish Of the session.
The outcome Of the affair affords him
special qualification. His grasp on the
party organization is firmer than ever.
Three wild cheers for Parker and
Davis were given by few delegates in
the central aisle of Armory Hall at the
conclusion Of the regular proceedings.
In accepting the nomination for the
Office Of Associate Justice Of the Su-
preme Court Judge NJ. T. DoOling made
the best speech Of the convention. The
Judge is a Native Son and a natural
orator.

f. E. Leake Of Woodland moved that
the convention extend vote of thanks
to the chairman and secretary. The
motion carried.
d. w. Carmichael of Sacramento
moved that the thanks of the conven-
ton be extended to the citizens of
Santa Cruz for the courtesies extended
the delegates during their stay here.
The vote in favor Of the motion was
unanimous.
An effort was made at this point to
adjourn the convention until p. M,
that the First Congressional District
might report, it being asserted that
notwithstanding the fact that the COM
mittee had announced that it would
report in two weeks, answers to tele-
grams that had been sent out might
be received and the nomination made
here. The delegation of the First de-
sired that the convention remain in
session to ratify the nomination Of any
candidate it might select. The effort
to keep the convention in session failed,
however, a motion that the convention
ratify in advance any nomination the
First District might make prevail
ing.
Next came the fun of the session.
7. J. Horan of the Twenty-ninth AS
sembly District, San Francisco, was
recognized by the chair and gravely
said:
Mr.. Chairman move that when
this convention adjourns it ad
journ out of respect to the memory of
the Horses and Carts"
The howl of delight that met this
suggestion furrowed lines In the cheeks
of Jim O'Brien and wreathed the coun-
tenance of Gavin McNab in smiles
O'Brien was saved further pain by the
call for a vote on a motion to adjourn
sine die, which carried with the dele
gates still smiling at the discontinue
of the representatives of the late Dem
ocratic League.
A majority of the delegates to the
convention were driven from town on
the early afternoon trains by a down
pour of rain that kept the Oldest in
habitant busy with explanations for
the rest of the day. 1t was the de-
sire of many of the delegates to re-
main in the city and enjoy an after
noon on the beach. but the weather
prophet could promise no cessation of
the storm. A few remained over,
however, and WI witness. as specta-
tors, the deliberations of the Republi-
