tainty of having all the delegates for
us, and as a matter of pfinciple and
justice passed the primary law.
Every reactionary paper in the State
was pleading for such law, because
they hoped to win under it. The
Legislature of California decreed that
In California, as in oregon, South Da-
kota. and North Dakota, the dele
gates should be all elected at large.
All parties and all factions acquiesc-
ed in the law, and the supporters of
the three Republican candidates for
President made a campaign through
out the State. Mr.. Taft sent a spec
ial letter to California, which showed
his entire acquiescence in the law.
There were no candidates at all,
and, until after the primary was held,
about the district delegates. The
Taft members of the National Com
mittee now sent two Taft men, saying
that they come from the Fourth Dis
trict. AS a matter of fact fourteen
precincts in the Fourth District over
lap the Fifth District, and no man on
earth can tell what the vote in the
Fourth District was.
After the primary every decent
man in California acquiesced, but a
lieutenant of Mr.. Patrick Calhoun,
the man whom Mr.. Henry indicted,
has made the contest, and the Nat
ional Committee has actually seated
two Taft Calhoun delegates from Cal
ifornia, although there were no dis
trict candidates, and although no hui
man being can say what the vote was
in the district which these men
claim"
Gov. Johnson has rightly said that
ii is an insult to the State of Califor-
mia to listen to Calhoun's representa-
tive in such case as this. and he
refused to appear before the National
committee. saying that he would not
try the title of stolen property be-
fore the thief who stole It..
Remember that there was not a
district delegate elected to California
There were twenty-six delegates cleo
ted at large by a majority of $1,000.

RESULT IN DOUBT
Both Browne and Burke Claim to Be
Victorious


The actual result of the fight for
the control OF the Democratic state
organization will not be known until
the state convention meets at Mont.
pelier next Tuesday. Thomas II.
Browne of Rutland and J. +. Burke
of West Rutland, rival candidates for
membership In the Democratic nat.
ional committee, both claim TO be vic
torious, but neither is able to show
conclusive figures.
The caucus here Tuesday night has
left considerable feeling among local
Democrats and is a topic of much
controversy. The final vote by which
the delegates were declared elected,
was 1872 to a. instead of 152 TO 144,
as stated in The Banner yesterday.
This vote. however, was hardly a
fair test. the real battle being decid.
ed on the first ballot which was 164
TO ia in favor OF the Browne SIDE.
On the escond ballot. the Burke
crowd was left high and dry through
not having prepared printed ticket
for use.

Every year the Government buys from
500 to 1000 live salmon for breed

it is that weighing them is entirely
out of the question. The Govern
ment has for years hired a veteran
fisherman to make the rounds Of the
weirs on the little power boat and
keep account Of the fish. All the
