A. But-*, Chairman
Committee Oh I lailorm •no Resolutions.
WAYS ami MKASS.
Af'cr the convention had made itself
hearse a motion for the appointment of a
Committee on Ways and Means was
adopted, and lb** Chair appoint -d the fol
lowing gentlemen: J. ,D. Spreckels, Jacob
Levy, Messrs. ilcßoyle, Collins and Van
Hansen.
George W. Dixon moved that all resolu
tions be sent to the Secretary's desk in
duplicate before being put by the Chair.
Carried.
The same gentleman also moved that the
candidates for places 0 11 the ticket be
elected by ballot
E. W. Rlaney m ived as an amendment
that the elect proceed by viva voce. Car
ried.
Dotsan Nichols propos -d that the Secre
tary' make an alphabetical list of delegates
and that this be used by the convention on
each roll-call.
An amendment was offered that the vote
be taken by districts from the roll as at pres
ent constituted, and the amendment was
carried, Xicliols being the only negative.
Kuef moved tha tail candidates for nomina
tion he required to deposit SlO with the
Secretary as a guarantee of good faith and a
contribution toward the expenses of the con
vention. Carried.
Nichols dine to (lie front once more with
a "resolution requiring all candidates for a
place on ihe ticket to appear on the stage,
indorse the platform and pledge themselves
to vote with the parly whether successful or
not la receiving a nomination. Carried.
MOD— DELEGATES.
The Chair then announced that nomira
tion~ for Mayor were iv order, but the con
vent on seemed suddenly overcome with
modesty, ami for a moment it looked as
though" the ofiice was to go a-liegitinj;.
At this point Captain Swasey moved that
nominations be postponed and that the con
vention adjourn, but their being no second
the Chairman again announced the order of
business.
J. CL Campbell at length aro-e in his place
on the tl or. and alter considerable coaxing
was persuaded to advance to the reporters'
taub*, where he nominated George 11.
Sanderson as the standard-bearer of the
party in tie- municipal campaign. lie told
the convention that when, during the Civil
War, the fate of the nation was trembling in
the balance, a l'ttle band of pioneers as
semble.! In this city and laid the foundation
if tin- present great Republican party.
Among the number was George 11. Sander-
Sou, who had been a consistent Republican
ever since, and who in hie lifetime had never
been an aspirant for office lill now. The
platform, he contended, was a business
platform, and it was but fitting that a busi
ness man of forty years' stan ling should be
chosen to lead its adherents to victory. In
private- life his uprightness is a Well-known
fact; in business circles he is immensely
popular; the mechanic and laborer will
stand shoulder to shoulder iv making his
fight, and if given the nomination his elec
tion will surely follow.
CUT AMI DRIED.
Other nominations were announced in or
der, ii ml after considerable delay Captain
Swasey again took ilie ih.or and announce
that it looked as though everj thing was cut
and dried. lie had come to the convention
on purpose to second the nomination of a
friend who had asked his support that very
evening, and was astonished not to hear his
mine mentioned. lie would, however, move
that Mr. Sanderson's nomination be made
unanimous.
'Ih- hair ruled the motion out of order
until the nominations had closed.
Nichols moved tnat the nominations be
closed. Can el.
It was again moved to make the nomina
tion Unanimous, but the Chair ref used to en
tertain the motion until lhe nominee had
Complied with the rule calling upon candi
dates to interview the Secretary and indorse
the platform.
Sir. Sanderson was thereupon called to
the stage, ami after Complying with the
financial amenities was introduced to the
convention amid tremendous applause. He
emphatically mli rsed the platform and
vouched for the correctness of alt his pro
poser had said lor him except in one particu
lar — he bad asked the Administration for a
favor once, and only once.butit was for a poor
. lone widow and not for himself. The
widow held the office of Postmistress in a
country town and was about to be removed
in favor of a burly e-seeker until tue
speaker had used bis influence with W. W.
Morrow to have her retained if elected he
promised to do his duty to his constituents
and his party by giving the city a pure and
clean administration.
The si eech was enthusiastically received,
and at its close Mr. Sanderson was made
the unanimous cho.ee of the convention for
Mayor.
An adjournment till this evening was then
moved, but at the suggestion of the Chair,
who read a communication from the State
Central Committee making a request to ili.it
end, the convent! adjourned until to-mor
row, in order to allow the delegates 1 1 par
ticipate in the exercises at the new Wigwam

teen minutes. Tliere was uo opposition.

Everything before the convention had the
appearance of being "cut and dried," and it
was rumored that the real .selection had been
made in the little room at the County Com
mittee's headtiuarteis. Certainly, as busi
ness was rushed last night, ibis was quite
evident, and the lambs raised thunderous
applause over the results.
At 8:30 o'clock the convention was called
to order by John Dougherty, Chairman of
the Democratic County Committee. He ad
vised the delegates to seat themselves in
districts, and those persons who were not
members of the convention to take seats in
the gallery aud in the side seats. This occa
sioned a delay of ten minutes, as some diffi
culty was experienced in sealing delegates.
THE CHAIRMAN'S VISIONS.

did not propose to ike up the time of the
convention in speech-making, and that it
would be most advisable to imitate the
actions and methods of the Democratic
State Convention at San Jose.
K. B. Mitchell was unanimously elected
temporary Chairman. In the course of a
Uriel address he said: "It goes without say
ing that I am very much obliged lor the

exiecting to take part in the deliberations
of tlie convention as a delegate, not expect
ing to receive this honor at your bunds;
and 1 appreciate the compliment all the
more because 1 had not sought the honor."
lie predicted that the coming campaign
will be an historical oue; that the times-is at
hand wheu iinpruvemeiits must be made
which will inak- the city beautiful and at
tractive its any city in the land ami t ie para
dise of America That these improvements
may be effected it was necessary to nominate
the right men lor the municipal ticket, t:>
place municipal business in ilia hands uf
honest men, w luch. if done by the delegates,
their choice would be ratified by the people
on electiou day. li the convention would
do as well as the Stato Convention hid done

the city equal in attractions for the tourist
to imperial Paris." He spoke in favor of

aged, and such a man as Ins nominee Frank
McCoppiu, was just the one to do it." The

splitting yells, clapping and cat-calls.
REASONS WHY.

nomination fur Auditor, as the people
"required a watchdog over the Supervisors
and the treasury." Strother was elected
unanimously.
i'eter Dunne nominated Harry Thornton
Cresswell for City and County Attorney
and Counselor, because Cresswell's au

A Calm Cold Resolution Without Any
p- -P : Flannels on It.
Christopher A. Buckley's delegates to the
Democratic Judicial and Educational Con
vention invaded the rooms of the Demo
cratic County Committee last night to the
number of just 150. There were 176 dele
gates elected to this convention, and although
only 150 answered "here" at the calling of
the roll the Acting Secretary announced all
present. Although it was announced the
night before that the convention would be
held in the liijou Theater, that Thespian
temple could not be secured, for the reason
that its proprietor refused to allow the

"lambs", to pasture there even for a night.
He was afraid the carpets would be ruined
by tobacco juice and the fixtures shattered.
So the delegates bad to fall back on their
favorite haunt, and tiie ro mis of the County
Committee weie brought into requisition as
a convention hall.
It was 8:*—) o'clock when Secretary J. H.
Long of the Couuty Committee called the
convention to order. J. W. Sweeney was
chosen Secretary nnd called the roll. Long
had beeu : " priming " himself all day to
make a speech and be made it with consider
able eloquence. '*. ...p.r??. *'■-
LONG IM GOOD HEALTH.
Without a blush he began by saying that
it was a pleasant duty to call together so
many "representative" Democrats. " You
have beeu called together," he said, "to
perform an important duty— to nominate
Superior Judges, Police Judges, Justices of
the Peace, a Superintendent of Public
Schools aud a Board of Education,- I ask
you to be very careful in pieseutiug a ticket
to the public; to form a ticket thatthe
city and county will be bound to support.
[Hoots, bawls and yells in the rear of the
hall.] If you nominate such a ticket there
is nothing to prevent the Democratic party
from rolling up a big Democratic majority."
Long then said the first order of business
would be the selecittiu of a temporary Chair
man.
Joseph Rothschild called attention to the
fact that, ib his opinion, the duty of the as
semblage was as important as that expected
of any oilier convention in the State. As
good a ticket should be put before the pub
lic as that formed at the San Jose State Con
vention. He placed in nomination as tem
porary Chairman Philip Prior. A. Comte
Jr. and S. S. Hamburger seconded the nomi
nation. Mr. Prior nominated Joseph E.
O'Donnell, who declined in favor of Prior.
ELECTED CHAIRMAN. »
Mr. Prior was elected unanimously and
escorted to the chair by Rothschild and Crit
tenden 'ilioiiiton. Upon taking the chair.
Pi ior said be was thankful for the honor,
'and promised to faithfully discharge his
duties.
,1. VV. Sweeney, B. F. Lanfar and Frank
J. Fallon were selected as temporary Secre
taries.
On motion of Delegate Thornton the
Chairman was authorized to appoint com
mittees of teu on Credentials aud Order of
Business and Permanent Organization. A
recess of ten minutes was taken in order to
give the Chairman time to appoint the com
mittees.
When the convention was again called to
order the Chairman announced the ap
pointment of the billowing committees:

lowing resolution without comment, and it
was adopted unanimously:

In obedience to an order issued by "Boss"
Buckley conventions were held last night in

ously prepared by Buckley was thus made
known to the public, and is as follows:
For tin- Senate.
J. J. Donnelly wits unanimously chosen
as the Democratic nominee for Senatorial
honors from tlio Twentieth Senatorial Dis
trict at tlie meeting, held last evening in Po
lice Court 1. Chairman James Boland in
troduced the nominee, who made a lew re
marks, which indicated that he would at
least be able to vote if elected to the next
Legislature. Mr. Dounelly is a liquor
dealer, ol the firm of Donnelly & Kenny,
who keep a saloon on tho southeast corner
of Kearui and California streets. lie said
that he had not held office before, miwith-
Btanding the lact that he was a native of

The delegates to the Twenty-second Sena

cation, to represent the district in the next
Legislature. The convention then ad
journed sine die.
The delegates to the convention of the
Twenty-fourth Senatorial District, compris
ing the Thirty-seventh and Thirty-eighth
Assembly Distr eta, met last evening at
Oraud Central llall. Dr. Kemp Van Ec was
elected Chairman aud J. J. McCarthy Sec
retary by acclamation. Before proceeding
with the nomination for Senator a resolu
tion was offered by P. J. Creegan request
ing that the nominee be ni^lrueted to
wait on the Democratic Municipal
Convention aud affix his signature to the
party platform, Tne resolution was carried
unanimously. In a neat speech, E. C. Har
rington then placed betore the delegates
the name of P. J. Murphy, the Incumbent
from the Twenty -fourth District On mo
tion Mr. Murphy was nominated by acclama
tion, and assured his constituents that ha
would do his best to serve the interests of
ins party. The convention then adjourned
sine die.
'lhe Democratic members of the Twenty
sixth Senatorial District met at their head
quarters, 248 Sixteenth street, last evening,
to nominate a Senator. There were present
from the Forty-fifth Assembly District Dele
gates K. J. Barry, K. J. Daily, John Carr,
William Wynne, W. 11. Westerleld, W. C.
O'Brien, William Mulvin and Jaiue- M>*e,

Delegates K. J. McMichael, A. J. Cleary,
Oeorge McAuliffe, A. J. Heavy. P. O'Don- .
Nell, 11. Wynne, T. Brady and J. L. Collins.
The names are given in the order of the pre
cincts each one represents, there being jione
absent.
William Mulvin was made temporary
Chairman and A. J. Cleary temporary Sec
retary of the meeting, but these officers hud
hardly been seated when one of the advo
cates of Democratic supremacy moved that
they be made permanent officers, which mo
tion was immediately carried.
After having examined thoroughly the
credentials of the delegates one by one,
slowly spelling out the names and counting
noses, a resolution was adopted requiring
the n imiuee of the Twenty-sixth Senatorial
District to go immediately before the Mu
nicipal Convention and subscribe to the
platform of the Democratic party.
B. J. Barry nominated Thomas J. Clancey,
a local blacksmith, and P. O'Donnell place-
John C. Crumuiey in nomination.
It was then decided to close the nomina
tions, but before the matter could be put to
a vole O'Donnel withdrew, by instruction,
the name lie had presented.
At this point a delegate displayed more
zeal and ardor for the idol of his choice than
he did of knowledge for the rules of parlia
mentary action. De moved that the vote be
made by acclamation and that the Secretary
be Instructed to cast the ballot. 'This double
banded way- of knocking down a candidate
was pursued, and as a result P. J. Clancey,
the man of muscle, was nominated by accla
mation and by ballot
The Legislative Convention of the Twenth
eigbtb Senatorial District met at the corner
of Twenty-sixth and Folsom streets and
after being cailed to order adjourned until

John F. Brown, merchant, residing at 9 Lick
place, was nominated by acclamation.
Joseph Franklin will bear the Democratic
standard In the Thirty-second Assembly-
District He is the keeper of a sailor board
ing-house at 704 Broadway. The principal

was once a Democratic pound-keeper.
L. P. Ward, a printer of the Examiner,
was selected to represent the Thirty-first
Assembly District. He is a native of New
York and about 50 years of age.
County Committeeman Waller Burke
called the convention of the Thirty-seventh
Assembly District to order last evening at
Grand Central Hall, on the corner of Mar
ket and Sixth streets. Before any business
could be transacted, however, lie announced
that owing to the absence of several of the
delegates, he would take it upon himself
to adjourn the convention until this
evening. Considerable dissatisfaction was
manifested and a roll-call demanded.
The request was reluctantly granted, and,
much to the satisfaction of the majority, it
was ascertained that only four delegates
failed to respond when their names were
called, aud one of these proved to be pres
ent
County Committeeman Burke was not to
be outdone, however, and declared the con
vention adjourned just as the dele
gates commenced to evince unmistakable
signs of revolt The story was
freely circulated that the action of
the temporary Chairman was prompted
by the fact that the absent delegates were
disposed to nominate Charles Sweeney, the
ex-bail player, and tlieir votes were needed.
Mr. Sweeney is stiouosed to be on the Inside
track, und hence Hie obliging action of "the
poweis that be" in adjourning for his
benefit
The convention of the Thirty-eighth As
sembly District was called to order last
evening by County Committeeman Phil

Gowan was proposed as Assemblyman, but
withdrawn. Tne convention adjourned to
the call of the Chair.
Tne delegates eight in number — of the
Forty-fifth Assembly District held a meet
ing in the hall previous to the Twenty-sixth
District's meeting, aud after examining cre

candidate for Mayor of this city, first saw
the light of day in the city of lioston, where
he was born in the year 182% and is con
sequently 135 years of age at this time, al
though be looks much younger. When the
gold fever broke out in 1549, he started fnr
this State, but in consequence of his delicate
state of health at the time, he made the
passage around Cape Horn, hoping thereby
to be benefited. He arrived here In
March, 1850, and meeting his brother,
who had come overland, the two went

At bis (rood nelghtK r Brown,—
" You kissed my wife upon the street,—"

■ That's where you're wmnfr,'* good Brown replied,
In accents mild &nd meek:
" 1 l.lss'-d her: that I've not denied
But I kh— ed her on the cheek—
and I did so because ebe looked so handsome—
the very picture of beauty and health. What
Is the secret of it?"
" Well," replied Green, " since you ask It, I
will tell you ; she uses Dr. Pierces Favorite
Prescription. 1 accept your apology. Good
night." -
An unhealthy woman Is rarely, if ever, beau-
tiful. The peculiar diseases to which so many
of the sex are subject, are proliQo causes of
pale, sallow faces, blotched with unsightly
pimples, dull, lustreless eyes and emaciated
forms. Women so afflicted, can be perma-
nently cured by using Dr. Pierces Favorite
Prescription; and with tho restoration of
health comes that beauty which, combined
with good qualities of bead and heart, makes
women angels of loveliness.
" Favorite Prescription " is the only medi-
cine for women, sola by druggists, under a
positive ■guarantee from the manufactur-
ers, that it will give satisfaction in every case,
or money .will be refunded. It ls a posture
