DELEGATES CHOSEN.
The Republican County Con
vention Meets.
The Utmost Harmony Said to
Prevail.
Herniations Endorsing; Col. Markham
for Governor.
Several Other People Complimented.
Keating of the Delegation After
the Convention.
The result of the efforts of the peace
makers in the ranks of the Republicans
oi this city and county was plainly evi
dent at the convention held yesterday at
Tarn Verein hall. All the differences
had been healed over, and the delegates
entered and took their seats with con
fident smiles on their faces, as if they
■were certain that everything would pass
off harmoniously and that there would
be no fighting. Those who had opposed
each other at the primary polls walked
about the hall arm in arm discussing the
situation, while those with the slates in
their pockets waited quietly for Judge
Fitzgerald to be called to the chair. That
tie was to be chairman was settled long
before the hour arrived for the conven
tion to meet, and so long before that he
had in his possession the committees
that were to be appointed. This was
one of the results of the treaty of peace,
and when the time arrived for the ap
pointment of the committees it was evi
dent that they had been selected for the
purpose of preserving the established
harmony.
As early as 9:45 o'clock the hall was
crowded, and a few seconds past 10
o'clock Chairman Fred Gilmore, of the
county central committee, rapped on
the table for order. For a quarter of an
hour confusion prevailed.
The chair insisted that the city dele
gates seat themselves in the order of
their wards on the right of the hall.
They had, early in the morning, secured
the front seats clear across the hall,
leaving the country delegation the choice
of the back seats. The chair thought
that the country ought to have an equal
chance, and ordered the city representa
tives in one-half of the front to take
back seats. There was a vigorous ob
jection, and it took considerable time to
restore anything like order. Finally,
when partial order had been restored,
the chair announced that the first order
of business would be the selection of a
temporary chairman. He called for
nominations, and H. Z. Osborne rose
and spoke as follows:
"Tne Republicans of the county of
Los Angeles will today strike that key
note of harmony which made this the
banner Republican county of the state
in 1888 [applause], and which, after giv
ing the splendid majority of 913 votes
for the white-plumed statesman of
Maine, James G. Blame [applause], four
years previously, increased that major
ity to about 3,700 for General Harrison.
(Applause.] With a view to taking the
first step toward a repetition of the vic
tory of 1888, this convention is assem
bled, and for the purpose of effecting an
organization, I have the honor to place
in nomination a gentleman distinguished
for his ability and fairness as a presid
ing officer, one who has served the Re
publicans of Los Angeles county with
great acceptability in like positions before
and whose services to tne Republican
party have always been freely and ably
given. I refer to Hon. W. F. Fitzgerald,
of Los Angeles."
J. M. Meredith moved that nomina
tions close. Carried.
Hon. H. T. Hazard moved that Hon.
W. F. Fitzgerald be elected by acclama
tion. Carried, and Messrs. W. S. Moore
and H. Z. Osborne were appointed as a
committee to escort Judge Fitzgerald to
the stage.
Upon assuming the control of the
convention Judge Fitzgerald said: "It
ia with feelings of profoundest gratitude
that I accept the honor you nave con
ferred upon me. Such a distinction
coming from such a body is an honor of
which any man might feel proud. I
wish to observe right here that I am
not unmindful of the responsibility I
have undertaken, but I wish to say to
you that I can honestly endeavor to per
form my duties in a spirit of fairness
and justice. We have assembled here,
as you are aware, for the purpose of
■ending 63 representative Republicans
of the county to the state convention
next month. This delegation will occu
py a position of commanding influence,
and if we will present them a solid front
the choice of Southern California is
named for governor. It is said that a
prophet is not without honor in his own
country. You will find after the elec
tion that Los Angeles county is an ex
ception to this rule. If you will send
to that convention representative repub
licans, men who are true to their party,
there will be no doubt as to the result."
Nominations for temporary secretary
were declared in order and W. W. Stock
well, of the First ward, was nominated
and elected.
A motion to appoint a committee of
■even on credentials was carried.
H. T. Gaze moved that a committee of
seven be appointed on permanent organ
ization ana order of business. Carried.
Judge Carpenter moved that a com
mittee of seven be appointed on resolu
tions. Carried.

tions go to that committee without de

to be selected by the different districts

The report was adopted.
The committee on resolutions submit
ted the following:
Resolved, That the Republicans of Los
Angeles county, in convention assem
bled, reaffirm the principles enunciated
in the platforms of the party adopted by
the state and national Republican con
ventions of 1888, and renew their alle
giance to that great political party which
has produced a Lincoln and a Grant and
their illustrious associates and succes
sors, and under successive administra
tions of which the country has enjoyed
unexampled prosperity for a period of
thirty years, a prosperity which a single
Democratic administration under the
check of a Republican senate was unable
to seriously retard.
Resolved, That the administration of
President Harrison has met the just ex
pectations of the country, has been
marked by prudence, wisdom, states
manship, and a conscientious regard for
the interests of the whole people.
Resolved, That in eliminatiug from the
rules of the house of representatives the
absurd legal fictions which have for
more than three-quarters of a century
clung like barnacles to them, enabling
the minority to defeat tbe majority, to
retard public business and seriously de
lay and cripple the operations of the
government, the Republican members
of the present congress, and especially
the clear-headed, intrepid and patriotic
speaker, the Hon. Thomas B. Reed, have
rendered a distinguished service for
which they are entitled to the thanks
and confidence of the whole country.
Resolved, That the sincere and well
considered efforts of a Republican con
gress to adjust the tariff on imports to
the present and future condition of the
country, and in consonance with the
great American principle of protection,
and to enact a law which shall restore
silver to its rightful place as one of the
money metals of the conntry—both
measures of great importance to the
Pacific coast states —are evidence of the
statesman-like breadth of view of the
congressional leaders of the Republican
party, and renew their title to the con
fidence of the country.
Resolved. That the long and honorable
career of the senior senator of this state,
Hon. Leland Stanford, as governor, pub
licist, and as the moving spirit in vast
enterprises that have resulted in popu
lating and enriching the Pacific coast,
and as one wlio has endowed a state in
stitution of learning in so princely a
way that it will ever remain a monu
ment to his foresight, public spirit and
philanthropy, command the respect and
promote the pride of the people of Cali
fornia.
Resolved, That the Hon. AVilliam Van
dever has been a faithful representative
of this district, that he has uniformly
labored to foster its industries and pro
tect its diversified interests, and that
his distinguished services and his high
character entitle him to the esteem of
his constituents.
Resolved, That while the Republicans
of Los Angeles county with pleasure and
commendable pride assert that there are
in the party in other portions of the
state many gentlemen of great and
recognized ability and prominence who
would be available candidates and effi
cient as chief magistrates; nevertheless,
as the banner county, having given Gen
eral Harrison nearly four thousand ma
jority, as a county from which no Re-
Eublican nominee for governor has ever
een elected, they now ask of their
brethren in the state the honor of hold
ing the right of the line in the forth
coming battle, and of fighting under a
gallant leader chosen from their own
tiles.
Resolved, That in presenting Hon.
Henry H. Markham for the Republican
nominee for governor, we name a
gentleman who is the peer of any other
in the state; as a citizen, irreproachable
in his personal, social, domestic and
business relations; as a statesman, a
man of broad views and of public affairs;
as a soldier, one who bears upon his per
son the honorable scars which attest the
heroism and courage with which he de
fended on the battle-field the national
flag, life and honor.
Resolved, That this convention, comp
osed of the neighbors, friends and ac
quaintances of our candidate, among
whom he has gone out and come in for
the past thirteen years, who have entire
confidence in the integrity of his life and
the purity of his character and an affec
tionate regard for his person, instruct
the sixty-three delegates from this
county to do what each and every one of
them would gladly do without instruc
tions, vote for and use ali honorable
efforts to secure in the interest of no
section, but in that of the entire Repub
lican party of the state, the nomination
of the Hon. Henry H. Markham for
governor.
Resolved, That we congratulate the
Republican party of this county upon
its entire and complete unification; that
neither schism nor faction mars its use
fulness or harmony, and that in solid
column we will move against the enemy,
and the history of the Republican vic
tory of 1888 will repeat itself in 1890.
The resolutions were adopted, but the
only portions that received much ap
plause were those in reference to Col.
Markham and Speaker Reed.
S. K. Adams moved that H. Z. Os
borne be substituted for Judge Fitz
gerald as chairman of the convention,
but received no second.
A recess was then taken for the pur
pose of the selection of the delegates.

Osborne, of this city, being now before
the president for consideration for ap
pointment as member of the board of
general appraisers, this Republican con
vention of Los Angeles county, repre
senting the largest Republican majority
of any county in California, taking
notice of the fact that all of the general
federal appointments from the state
have been made from its northern sec
tion and that not one has yet been made
from the great Republican strongholds
of Southern California, earnestly recom
mend to the president the appointment
of Mr. Osborne as a fitting Republican
of Southern California Republicans, as
a gentleman qualified by education,
practical experience and good judgment
for any position in which he may be
placed, and as an act of practical justice
to the Republican party of Southern
California.
It was moved that the convention ad
