Ruef is out of business so far as the
Republican convention is concerned 1t
is an open question whether his mis-
guided followers will make organized eff
fort to oppose the will of the majority.
1t goes without saying that he will
strive to gain representation on the
County Committee with a view of doing
Republican politics in the gubernaterial
campaign ofS19e6., but the leaders of the
Republican party in San Francisco will
meet that proposition when it is pre-
sented to the convention.
The Walters Union has issued its fiat
that from now henceforth its members
will inject politics into its deliberations.
The union at recent meeting adopted
series of resolutions covering these
grounds. by which 1t is hoped that can
didates for public Office relying on pop
uIar suffrage will be more friendly dis
posed toward its organization.
