another occasion he threatened that
his mother would break my neck
There were several instances of vio-

children.
During that time Mr. Mckee re-

SACRAMENTO, Jan. 9.-In the
preliminary canvassing tonight the
conference at Bard headquarters
called together more than twenty
members Of the Legislature. 1t was
the largest demonstration of actual
strength so far made in favor of any
aspirant for United States Senator.
The general judgment of onlookers
inclines to the view. that Frank p.
Flint will get more votes on the first
ballot tomorrow than any other cam
didate. but there are some predictions
that Bard will take the first place.
All along the line the Southern
Pacific political agents are hammering
Bard and asserting that he has not a
ghost of chance to win out. The
Knight boomers are very much
elated over the assurances of esteem
and personal friendship which Senator
Perkins now conveys to knight. This
is accepted as quite triumph of
Knight over Fisk.
Assemblyman Held of Mendocino,
who has been rated in some quarters
as a Bard man and in other directions
been captured by Knight. A deluge
of kilograms from Ukiah importun-
ing Held to stand up for Knight had
the desired effect.
Frank p. Flint's roundup of the
Los Angeles delegation at the French
restaurant, this evening was an inter-
esting event. The Los Angeles candi-
date gave the programme for to-
morrow's work to his immediate
supporters in the Legislature.

mirer of Senator Bard. He is rated
in the present fight as a Bard man.
