THE WINNING COUNTY TICKET.
It Will Be Named at Today's
Convention.
The Political Situation As It Now
Appears.
Some of the Candidate* Who Are In the
Field—Everything Portends a Har
monicas Se.slon—A I.lst
of the Delegates.
At 10 o'clock this morning the Demo
cratic county convention will be called
to order at Turnverein hall. This con
vention will be the largest that has ever
been held in Los Angeles county. It
will comprise 430 delegates, who are
supposed to represent tbe Democratic
masses. A county ticket will be placed
in nomination, and tbe general consen
sus of public opinion is that the ticket
nominated will be elected.
The people of this county are tired of
the $12 per minute government that has
been reigning on court bouse hill for
some time past, and there seems to ex
ist a universal desire for a change. The
feeling is that the. Democratic conven
tion which meets today will name the
county officials for the two years com
mencing with 1803.
One thing cannot be denied. The con
vention that assembles today will be a
representative one. The number of del
egates has been increased to a maxi
mum, in order that the voice of the
people might be heard. No endeavor
has been made to take snap judgment
on anyone. Not a dollar was spent by
any one to influence the primaries. As
-near as can be learned, no delegate
elected ia pledged to any candidate for
any particular office. The choice of the
convention under these circumstances
will be the choice of the party.
The first thing that the convention
will do today is to elect a temporary
chairman. J. De Bath Shorb will call
the body to order. Several names have
been mentioned in connection with the
temporary chairmanship. E-Mavor
Workman has been spoken of, but, Mr.
Workman declines the honor, while be
appreciates the endeavors of his friends
in this connection. The name of Judge
A. W. Hutton has also been mentioned,
but it ie understood tbat Judge Hutton
positively refuses to act.
The general sentiment last evening
was tbat W. A. Ryan would be selected
to act as the presiding officer of the con
vention. Mr, Ryan has already pre
sided over a convention of the party,
and in that trying position he distin
guished himself. It ie admitted by all
that he would make a good and pro
ficient chairman. While he would not
exercise any arbitrary power, he would
dispatch the business ot the convention.
It. Ie safe to say that the secret ballot
will not be adopted. All voting in the
convention will be open, and the dele
gates will be prepared to answer to their
constituents for the action they take in
tbe convention.
In connection with the secretaryship,
no name has thus far been mentioned
except that of Walter Wotkyns, of Pas
adena. He will undoubtedly be chosen
by acclamation. v
As to the platform, the general opin
ion seems to be tbat the resolutions
should refer to and cover strictly county
matters, outside of a general endorse
ment of the state and national plat
forms. It has been suggested that the
following points be covered in the report
of tbe committee on resolutions:
Resolved, That we arraign the present
Republican administration of the county
government as characterized by scandal
and profligate waste of the money of the
taxpayers. We cite the fact that $1,239,
--814.39 wae the cost of the county govern
ment for tbe year 1891. The daily cost
of the county government at this rate
has been $4403 75. This vast sum has
gone to enrich an army of unnecessary
deputies, whose principal labor has con
stituted a mad endeavor to find some
thing that will be a pretense at work.
Resolved, Tbat we arraign the county
board of supervisors, as at present con
stituted, for its scandalous waste of the
People's money in furnishing the court
ouse. Although the people were called
upon to expend but $60,000 in furnish
ing the palatial building on court house
hill, and voted bonds in that sum for
that purpose, the board of supervisors
up to the Ist day of May, 1892, had ex
pended for furniture and carpets, etc.,
the princely sum of $97,897.85, accord
ing to warrants on file and drawn by the
county auditor. This reckless disregard
of the people's interests, whereby $47,
--897.85 was extravagantly and uselessly
paid out to favorites, was made possible
only by the juggling of county funds.
As $50,000 only was appropriated to fur
nish theconrt house, thie $47,897 85 was
raised hy transferring money from one
fund to another, in violation of law and
against tbe interests of the people.
Resolved, That we pledge our candi
date for county auditor to so discharge
the duties of his office that it will be
impossible in tbe future for any such il
legitimate transfers of funds to be made,
in order tbat petted and pampered fa
vorites may feed at the public crib.
Resolved, Tbat we pledge our candi
date for county clerk to be a faithful
custodian of the public records, and that
he will retain them intact, free from the
evil influences of designing politicians,
to mutilate, alter or deface.
Resolved, That we pledge our candi
dates for the assembly and senate to tbe
Advocacy of a bill, to be presented to tbe
next legislature, which will provide for
the abolition of two of the six superior
-courts, it being admitted tbat four supe
rior judges can now transact all of tbe
business of this county with ease, and
with due regard for the interests of all
litigants. This will result in a saving to
the people of, approximately, $20,000
per annum.
The contest for sheriff will be between
Ed Gibson and Martin Marsh. Both
are good democrats, popular citizens,
and either one of the two nominated
will be elected. Mr. Gibson has served
one term, and no man can make a
charge against his official record that in
the slightest degree impugns his integ
rity or character. On the other hand,
the friends of Mr. Marsh claim that he
will be a stronger candidate before the
people than Mr. Gibson. This question
is left to the convention to determine.
The only proposition is that tbe strong
est man should be nominated. Capt.
A. F. Mackey has been mentioned as a
possible dark horse.
For county clerk no candidate has an
nounced himself. If a good man from
the country was to declare himself, he
would be named. While Fred Hark
ness is in no sense seeking the nomina
tion, hia friends are urging his selec
tion.
There ia but one candidate for county
auditor thus far—Frank B. Colver. Mr.
Colver haa been a reaident oi Loa An
LOS ANGELES HERALD: TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 20, 1892.
geles for ten years, and be would un
questionably be a strong man. It is
admitted that he is in every way qaali
fled for the position. He is an old sol
dier, and a hard working, deserving cit
izen.
For tax collector, there are several
candidates in the field—Gen. E E. Hew
itt, Harlow Gilbert, John Moriarity and
Refugio Bilderrain. Any one of the
quartet will be elected, if he receives the
nomination.
W. B. Scarborough and W. B. Crisp
have been'anndunced as candidates for
public administrator.
The friends of Hon. J. De Barth Shorb
yesterday brought his name to the front
for connty treasurer. Mr. Shorb seems
to have no opposition, and he will un
doubtedly benominated. With the pre
vailing sentiment against third tt rmiem
and the well known popularity of Mr.
Shorb he is almost certain to be elected
if nominated.
For the constabulary nominations
there are about a dozen applicants. The
same holds good in so far as the nomina
tions for city justices are concerned.
The following is a list of tbe delegates aa
far as returned.

Political Notes.
Louis Stone is a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for constable
Mr. Stone is an able officer, and will poll
many American, French and German
votes, if nominated, regardless of party.
Tbe Young Men's Colored Democratic
club met last evening with W. H. Jukea
in the chair, and A. J. Hanslan, secre
tary. Arrangements were perfected for
the ratification for the Democratic
ticket.
Ralph Dominguez has been put for
ward hy his friends as a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for city
auditor.
Frank R. Willis is a candidate for the
Republican nomination for city attor
ney. Mr. Willis is a well known local
attorney, who has established in this
community a reputation as a legal ad
viser, and if he should be selected » y
the Republican convention, he would
undoubtedly prove to be a strong nomi
nee before the people.
One of tiie well-known Democratic
workers is M. C. Haustaun.
The Democratic nomination for the
assembly in the Seventy-third district
seems to be conceded to George Robertß.
For a long period of years Mr. Roberts
has resided in this community, and he
has been universally recognized as a
yr.ung man who could be relied upon on
all occasions. His integrity and prohityof
character have never been questioned.
His brave defense of the express car
against, the Collis train robbers clearly
establishes this fact. If Mr. Roberts is
nominated his election is only a matter
of time.
Dr. R C. Gnirado seems to have clear
sailing, in so far as the Democratic nom
ination for coroner is concerned.

Nkw Yoiik, Sept. 19 —Cholera, as a
matter of news, has iallen out of public
interest. The city papers print it on the
ineide pages, reserving more prominent
page for the Grand Army encampment
and politics.
The girl Mary Connerty will be dis
charged from the reception hospital in a
few daye. It is generally conceded that
she is not a cholera victim.
A CASK IN A BOARDING HOUSE.
Louis Weinhogel, a coachman, was re
moved tonight, hy the health authori
ties from a boarding house at 306 Exeter
place, to the receiving hospital at the
foot of West Sixteenth street. He is
believed to be suffering from an attack
of Asiatic cholera, aud the physicians in
attendance have expressed the opinion
that Weinhagel could not live through
the night. The house, which contains
over 200 other boarders, has been placed
under quarantine.
THE NEW BRUNSWICK CASE.
Dr. Roberts has quarantined the canal
boat Henry Cahill, lying at the foot of
West Thirty-first street, the captain and
owner of which died at New Brunswick,
N J., last night, supposedly of cholera.
He has also seized tbe bedding and
clothing aboard the boat, and disin
fected the craft. An inspector of the
board of health has been sent to New
Brunswick to procure some of the intes
tinal fluid from the body of Carr, for a
bacteri .logical examination.
STEERAGE PASSENGERS SMUGGLED IN.
The Furnessia arrived here today,
from Glasgow, with 628 passengers on
board, 221 in the firet cabin, and 407 in
the second cabin. It was reported down
town that tbe Furneseia was carrying
steerage passengers as cabin passengers,
in order to avert the twenty-day quar
antine regulation. It was said as many
as 407 supposed second cabin, were re
ally steerage passengers, and that when
the Hat was examined, the names of 82
were misriug. At the office of the com
pany it was denied that steerage passen
gers had come over in the cabin. The
authorities will likely investigate. The
steamer ia still in quarantine.
DR. JENKINS CRITICISED.
Three hundred and fifty-six passen
gers from the steamer Rugia and Sean
dia were taken to Hoffman island this
morning, making the total number in
quarantine there 1065. The passengers
fron the pest ships Rugia and Scandia
are thus turned loose among people who
are not known to have been infected,
and are being held there merely as a
precautionary measure. Thirteen of tbe
lot from the Scandia had been in the
pest house on Swinburne island. Gen
eral Hamilton is very indignant at Dr.
Jenkins for sending them to Hoffman
island.
REPORTS FROM QUARANTINE.
Quarantine, N. V., Sept. 19.—The fol
lowing dispatch from Dr. Byron, at
Swinburne island, was received this
afternoon by Dr. Jenkins:
"Dr. Abbott is just back from the
i-hips. He brings two bodies from the
Scandia, Regina Gistoff, aged 66, who
died of heart failure, and Chris Oleson,
aged 8 months, from marasmus; one
new patient from the Bteamship Bohe
mia Scholen Schasen, aged 16 years.
With this exception all of our patients
are out of danger, and the island will
soon be free from cholera patients."
CAMP LOW INFECTED.
Camp Low, Sandy Hook, Sept. 20,
12:15 a. m.—lt is officially announced at
thie late hour that Asiatic cholera has
broken out here. Franco Morenzo, a
Normannia passenger, who landed here
Sunday morning, died of the disease, in
a tent where he had been isolated, at 10
p. m. The body will be cremated at
Swinburne island. A widow, name
unknown, accompanied by her four
children, was taken ill with every
symptom of the disease, shortly after 11
p. m., and Dr. Rauch, a cholera expert,
immediately had the family removed to
an isolated tent. Tbe man's death is
said to have been largely due to excess
es, in which he indulged on Monday
night. Great excitemeit prevails
among the officials of the camp, and
fears are entertain* d of a stampede of
the people here from fear, when the fact
is made public. The dead man and in
fected family were passengers on the
Normannia, and had been in quarantine
for 18 days past.
Mrs. Sche:dt, who wae ill from the
effects of a premature confinement, on
Hoffman's it-land, died tonight in the
hospital outside the camp.
H. C. Frick's Peace Offering.
Pittsburg, ."a., Sept. 19.—Dr. J. H.
McClelland, the local representative of

H. C. Frick, of the Carnegie steel com
pany, furnished him $20,000, as a loan,
without interest, until the next meeting
of the state legislature.
POORLY EQUIPPED.
American Fortg In Bad Shape to Fight
Cholera.
Concord, N. H., Sept. 19.—Dr. Irving
A. Wateon, chairman of the international
quarantine committee, recently ap
pointed by the international conference
of boards of health, who has just re
turned, said in an interview, today:
"There is not a single port on the North
Atlantic coast that is supplied with all
the requisite means and methods of
modern maritime sanitary science. At
no single port was there found a suitable
plant for quickly and efficiently disin
fecting plague stricken ships. An
tiquated methods are most em
ployed. While many of our
ports are deficient as regards quarantine
stations, cholera is not very likely to be
admitted through the ports during the
present year, although the danger is
ever present of its introduction, and all
immigration from cholera infected
countries should be absolutely sus
pended for a year or more. The com
mission found tbe port of Philadelphia
beßt equipped of any of the ports exam
ined. Thus far there is no .reason for
alarm in this country. There is noth -
ing tiiat should interfere with domestic
travel. The latenes* of the season is in
our favor for thiß year, and congrees and
the subordinate legislative bodies should
furnish the necessary means to
strengthen the weak points in the de
fenses required to prevent the introduc
tion of cholera or any other disease."
A Victim of Exposure.
Philadelphia, Sept. 19.—George H.
Becker, a well known real estate dealer
of this city, and one of the Normannia's
passengers, died at his residence today
of pneumonia, resulting from a cold
contracted while sleeping on the deck of
the Cepheus while Bhe lay off Fire isl
and last Tuesday nigbt.
