Is the problem that the political die
tator of San Francisco is trying to
solve. He is seeking to keep in touch
with the State machine, but he is balk-
ing against the programme that has
been presented to him. The anti-labor
agitation that has so persistently ex-
plointed against Gillett has created a
situation unique in political history.
Ruef would swing his forces in an in
slant to the machine If he dared to risk
his power in the union labor field in

RUFF DISTRUSTS PARDEE.
Pardee and his friends realize this
and tonight they are striving to obtain
the Ruef votes and snatch the guber-
Material prize from the organization.
A combination of Ruef and the Pardee
forces would score a victory, but how to
effect that combination is the question
no one appears able to answer. Ruef
has had with Pardee sufficient expert
ence not to trust him. An agreement
In reference to patronage would have
to be between them somthing more
binding than political promise. If
this distrust on the part of the San
FRANCISCO boss can be overcome It is
believed an alliance can be made. If it
is not, then every political agency in
the State will be brought to bear. to
nominate Gillett and force the San
Francisco politicians to accept the situ-
alton.
Until the gubernatorial fight Is set
tied the minor controversies of the
convention-and there are few Of them
must rest in allegiance. Candidates
who expected to be programmed are
IN the air, knowing nothing of their
prospects nor of where they are to re-
ceive information that may be satisfac-
tory. Until Governor Pardee fights out
his salvation or loses aspirants for
other places on the ticket must wait.
After the league convention session
tonight there was deal of convening
at the Sea Beach Hotel An incident
of the evening was somewhat pro-
longed conference between Pardee and
Ruef. There are many predictions that

Ruef's Position in Fight
Fills Aspirants With
Uncertainty.
By Thor11as q. SulIivar,.

CALL HEADQUARTERS. CASINO,
SANTA CRUZ. Sept. S.-Governor Par
dee delivered an address tonight to the
State League of Republican Clubs. The
speech was eloquent, although some
what turgid. 1t bristled with adjectives
and received its complete need of ap-
plause.- 1t was the climax to the open
ing session of the clubs and satisfied
every purpose for which it was given.
While the Governor was delivering
1t his neutenants were counseling to
determine the surest means by which
he may win denomination for the po-
sition he now occupies. At the present
moment the Governor can see no way
by which he can wrest that nomination
from the convention. He is not in
touch with the organization, that mys-
toIious entity which in moments of
stern necessity spells Herrin.
The Governor can hope for no favors
from this source, yet he will seek to
achieve before Thursday triumph out
of what appears to be a hopeless Sit
uation. The gubernatorial speech to-
night represented simply one of those
political forms of necessity that must
be observed. Governor Pardee was not
Interested in telling the glories of Cal
ifcrnia- He was not at pains to pic
ture her as the greatest of all commu-
mites and to promise for her glories
yet unheard of; he was simply talking
while his agents were striving to get
in touch with the machine.
The State League of Clubs met today
under conditions most satisfactory. The
weather was delightful. The conven-
tion tent, a mammoth affair, was gay
with bunting and flags. Pictures of
patriots and Presidents tapped on the
canvas walls. There was music and
patriotism without stint. Pretty wom-
en- graced the scene with their presence.
Veterans with a political history of
fifty years were there, but behind it
all was the question who Is to receive
the nomination for Governor.
REPUBLICANS WONDER.
Practically all the prominent Repub-
lican politicians in California. with the
exception of their Democratic leader.
Herrin, are here and most of them are
wondering why they are here. They
have received no orders and of neces-
sity can give none. So far as the main
issue Of the coming convention is con-
cerned these men are at skies and
sevens. The leading forces are still
fighting out their quarrel as If the
convention were a month away instead
Of two days.
Governor Pardee and his lieutenants
are satlSned Inat GlIlett cannot win
without material assistance from the
San Francisco delegation. Herrin's
agents are insisting that Gillett will
be nominated on the first ballot Both
sides are in earnest and believe what
they are saying. This means simply
that the organization is not as COM
pletely in command as 1t hoped to be.
It is placing great reliance on Abe

sponse to the enforcement of an Ameri-

The question as to whether an Amer

Charge of Treachery Against One Re-

VALLEJO. Sept. S.--Rank treachery
Is now the charge made by one of the
wings Of the Republican party In this
county against the other faction. which
recently entered into control Of affairs
after being on the outside for four
years. Yesterday the county central
committee met and filled the vacancy
on the ticket caused by the death of
Hermann Perkins, the nominee for
Treasurer, by giving 1t to Henry Bass
ford Of Vacaville. The other aspirant
was o. H. Allison of Elmira, one of
the leaders Of the party in Northern
and Eastern Solano County. AS 80 per
cent of the Republican ticket IL made
UP of Vallejo citizens and q split was
threatened when the recent convention
refused to give the other section Of the
county a place on the ticket, 1t is now
charged that the leaders in control have
a secret understanding with the Dem
ocrats and are putting up weak men to

VALLEJO LABOR FOR G1LLETr.
Favors Congressman for Championing
Cause of Workmen at Navy Yard.


VALLEJO, Sept. 3.-In direct oppo-
sition to the stand taken by President
P. H. Mccarthy of the San Francisco
Building Trades Council over the CIV
ing of the Republican nomination to
Congressman ]. N. Gillett Is the ac-
ton of the Vallejo Trades and Labor
Council, one of the strongest and most
influential labor union organizations
in this State, which has just passed
resolutions favoring the nomination OF
Gillek for the part that he took in
the eight-hour legislation and his
stand for the rights of the working
men on the Mare Island Navy Yard.
This action was unanimous after a full
discussion of the Mccarthy position.
It was taken on the suggestion Of
many of the leaders of the local move
ment who are personally very close
to Mccarthy.
In letters to the Vallejo Trades and
Labor Council. Samuel Gompers OF the
American Federation OF Labor has
many times commended the efforts of
Congressmen Knowland and Gill
lett. and these letters are all of re-
cent origin. The fact that Gillett
stood out among the strongest advo-
Gates for an eight-hour law for the
builders OF American war vessels has
caused him to be very popular with
local labor people. and it is now un-
derstood that he viii secure ten out
