of the Sea Beach Hotel is also entitled
to great credit for arrangements made
for the care of various committees and
district conventions. and full credit
was given him by the delegates, who
promised to use every effort to see that
whenever Republicans meet they will
meet here where pleasure can be
found the instant the call of business
is over.
Gillett left here at noon today for
San Francisco and will, leave that city
tomorrow for Humboldt County. He
will be the central figure in a great
demonstration of greeting at Eureka
Within a week or ten days the nominee
will return to the metropolis and confer
with party leaders touching the plan of
campaign. 1t is expected that Governor
Pardee will enter the battle as an earn
est and vigorous supporter of the ticket.
Judge Mckinley, chairman Of the con-
vention. left Santa Cruz today and
Walter Parker, who is now recognized
by all the subordinates in the railroad
column as Herrin's chief of staff, also
went away today. In ample time Gill
lett, Parker and Mckinley will confer
relative to the appointment of an ex-
ecutive committee of twenty-one to
manage the campaign on behalf of the
ticket.
One of the executive committee will
be named as chairman of the State CEN
trail committee to succeed General
George Stone and another will be Sc
lected to head the campaign committee.
1t was the party custom in the Repub-
lican ranks, prior to DR.. Pardee's inomf-
nation for Governor four years ago, to
place in the hands OF the gubernatorial
nominee the responsibility or prestige
of selecting the executive committee
but Thomas Flint and others who were
conspicuous in the fight that eliminated
in Cages defeat insisted that Jacob H.
Nef, chairman of the convention of
1902. instead of the nominee for Gov
ernor, should appoint the executive
committee.
The organization is now ready to
adopt the rule laid down by Flint and
Cutter. Judge Mckinley, as Chairman
of the convention, will therefore appoint
the executive committee. It is quite
well understood that the wishes of Gill
lett in this respect will not be ignored.
Ruef will remain here to participate
in the celebration by the Native Souns
next Monday. Colonel E. Forbes and
william NJ. Cutter will linger by the
sea for a day or two. CONGRESSMAN
