The senatorial convention was an
other emphatic illustration and OBJ
iect lesson of how Republicans do
things. Two of the three counties
submitted the question of choice OF
tbe nominee to the voters of the
party. and in the other county the
district conventions were fair ana
impartial, and the delegates came to
the convention to perform duty
delegated to them by the people.
They did it in an enthusiastic man
ner. and the voice of the people pre-
vailed. How different with the
Democratic party. Its committee
has ordered that primary conventions
be held for the selection of delegates.
In them in the past there have been
a few TO manipulate even IN the most
bigh-handed manner, but not salts

oLAnKsBURe. ". ". JULY %
CLIQUE IS BUSY.

Several weeks ago the Telegram,
IN speaking of the matter of prlm-
ary elections for the selection of can
didates, stated that the Democratic
CLIQUE in this county would see to 1t
that such elections were not held by
the Democratic party of Harrison
county, for the reason that the clique
desired to manipulate the conven-
tons. and selection of candidates
as it has done the past several years.
The action of the committee shows
that statement to be true and en-
phasizes it, and the clique seems to
have gotten in its work on the COM
mittee in great shape.
In the face of the arraignment
that the clique would not permit a
primary election for the selection of
candidates, which the Democratic
paper claimed was first introduced
in the county by the Democratic
party years ago, the clique had the
nerve to show an open hand IN the
meeting and action of the commit
tee and to defy the rank and file OF
the party as usual.
Moreover, the meeting was vlrtu-
ally held behind closed doors-ln an
ofice-and not in public building,
where any and all might feel free to
enter and hear what was going on:
And that but repeats the custom OF
the clique.
Again. it is not unfair to say that
the clique has its slate as the com
mittee. at its instance, fixed a date
for the naming of delegates to the
county convention, Notwithstanding
the fact but single candidate for
nomination has announced mmselI.
That leads one to the belief that the
Clique is jumping over itself and
breaking its neck this year to get
absolute control of the delegates to
the county convention before prob
able candidates, or those who an
nounce thmselves, can have pos
sible chance with the voters.
All in all the action of the clique
in leading the committee in adopt
inc such a program as 1t did be-
trays quite plainly the determination

politicians cannot answer except by
elimination 1t is not Pardee, for he is
accused of having been too friendly to
the Western Pacific when the Southern
Pacific needed friends Ruef sent word
down the line yesterday to talk Gage.
Ruef can commit atrocities in politics,
but seldom is guilty of ahsurdities. In
scouting the name of Gage among the
politicians he convicted himself of both.
But the Ruef clacquers were told to

wv = ARSAW, Aug. 15.-RevOlu-
Ax tionists organized to slay
wv policemen, gendarmes and
infantry patrols began their
bloody work here today. The cOnspir-
ators shot and killed seventeen police
men, four gendarmes and seven infan-
try patroImen and wounded score
more. Soldiers charged upon mob
and with a volley killed fifteen and
wounded $50. The soldiers used their
bayonets freely after firing the volIey.
The massacre is supposed to have
been planned by revolutionists in re-
venge for the arrest recently of ten
Socialist 'workmen in the iron workin 6

The attacks on. policemen began at
10 O'Clock in the morning. About 1
O'Clock in the afternoon news began to
arrive from all parts of the city, re-
vealing the concerted nature of the
attacks. In Ostrovaskia street, -four
men attacked a sergeant of. police but
the latter was able to capture three of
them, who were armed with revolvers.

politics the gubernatorial contest was

feet of the primary election upon the
aspirations of the vari-.,s candidates
in the Republican fold ha~a made
much clearer and a safer and more ac-
curate estimate of their various posi-
lions may be made.
Governor Pardee is not yet within
striking distance of the nomination. Hn
has a very substantial pedestal upon
which to stand, however. and isscredited
with. greater political genera Iship than
his opponent. This may enable him to
make necessary combinations and win
tho prize. To begin with he has the
seventy-six votes of Alameda County,
not to trade with, perhaps, but to use
to advantage in quick, short fight.
which the struggle must be for Pardee
TO win
The politicians argue that the Gov
error cannot deadlock the convention
so he must work quickly. He has Sacra-
lhento, Sonoma, Solano and Napa, which.
combined with the others that held no
primary election under the law, give
him total of 334 votes. Nothing less
than 413 will win the prize.
Congressman J. N Gillett has the
north, with the exception of Siskiyou
He has Fresno, possibly San Diego and
perhaps few in Los Angeles. He can
not count more than sixty-six votes as
his initial strength. J. O. Hayes has
the votes of Santa Clara and may get
the complimentary vote of San Fran
cisco for one ballot. Warren Porter
can count on thirty-six votes and no
