, PASADENA, Sept. 12,-John Dlxon,
{arrested last night for selling liquor at
lorry and all hours In his restaurant on
>North Fair Oaks avenue this morning
> pleaded guilty and was sentenced by
Police Judge McDonuld to tho longest
term ever served In tho present city
Jail.
Thd police made the caso a city In-
Btoid of a county one, as tho arrest
■was under the city ordinanco and not

(demanded a jury trial, but later
changed his mind.
Homo two months ago this samo of
fender was arrested on a similar charge
and both he and his helper wero fined
$100. Dlxon managed to raise the $200
.at that time and paid the fines. This
jtlme only Dlxon was arrcstod and ho
■was fined $300, with the alternative of
, ninety days In the city Jail, the maxl
■ '"mum under tl.e ordinance.
Dlxon's friends are attempting this
evening to get the money together but.
hava not as yet been able to do so, and
It looks very much as though tho
restaurant man would have to put In
the next three months with Chief of
Police Plnkham, who mnde the arrest.
Dlxon announced this evening that
If a negro is put In the Jail tank with
[him there will be, trouble. The res
•taurant man is a native, of Kentucky
iand has all the race feeling of that sec
|tlon. He also states that he proposes
to serve out his time, as the pay is $100
a month, his line being $300.
Meals for the prisoner will cost In
the neighborhood of $75 If he remains
In jail for nlr-' days, and the punish
• inent will bn really solitary confine
ment, as except for an occasional
drunk or petty offender, there is not
much chance that he will have a com
panion In misery for any length of
time.

OLD FOLKS GUESTS
OF SALVATION ARMY
By Associated Press,
T.ONCJ BEACH, Sept. 12.— This wiifl a
happy day for about 200 old folks of
Jjos Angeles, who, as guests of tho
Salvation Army, spent tho happy hours
at the beach.
About twenty of thn Salvationists,
headed by Major anrl Mrs. Morton, ar
rompanled them, the party lining two
Salt Lake coaches.
Tho generosity of tho women of the
local churches was shown In the pro
viding of a liberal dlnnor, which was
spread on tables under the, pagodn.
near the bath houso. <:..'.
Tho crowd was a study. There were,
llttlo old ladles In black, with tiny
black bonnets, tle.d, perhaps, with a
slender white string, and there wero old
men who tottered as they walked,, some
carrying empty sleeves and others
scarcely able to hobble, along with the
aid of their stout sticks.,.
They sat in groups along- the beach
and pier a greater portion of tho day,
many gazing dreamily across the placid
blue, ns if they could almost see
In their peaceful vision the gates of
rest which will open ere long for them
upon a distant shore.
Among the picnickers were, fifteen
patients from the county hospital. They
were accompanied by a physician and
nurse.
A feature of the. day's pleasure was
a free trip on the steamer Nelllo as
the guests of Col. William Nelson.

TAKES MAIL GRIEVANCE
TO WASHINGTON CHIEFS
Special to The Herald.
OCEAN PARK, Sept. 12.— The an
nouncement that C. Van Court of Los
Angeles has made complaint to the
postofflce authorities .at "Washington
concerning tho treatment he received
nt the local postofflce from Postmaster
I. E. Meigs, who he claims refused to
give him mail because he applied for It
in a bathing costume, has aroused in
terest here.
The postmaster, who is a, veteran of
the Civil War and although blunt inhis
views nevertheless a popular citizen
here, made the rule effective early in
the summer when the . vanguard of
vacationists would loiter about the
postofflce in dripping wet bathing suits
during the distribution of mails, •'
This, the postmaster says, resulted in
puddles all over the floor, which was as
objectionable to other patrons of the
office as it was to himself and his em
ployes. • .
It is not thought here that Mr. Meigs
will be reproved for taking the action
that has caused the alleged complaint.
"Anyway, the postmaster is not wor
rying," said an attache. "He has the
backing of the community: and the sol
dier vote."

should*™ of iiia frtends.

that there would be no opposition to

gram to M. P. Snyrter and If»;nlnr«
IJorkwrlllrr fttatlng that he would posi
tively rlecllnn to tnko thfl nomination
even If It wern tendered him.

U, DIRgR early In the flay removed the
only other candidate of any strength.
Toland for Lieutenant Governor
Thomns A. Tola net of Ventura was
given the nomination of lieutenant gov
ernor by Reclamation us well.
It.XwHH not until late this afternoon
thnt the nominating was commenced.
Hut, when the work of selecting the
nominees hnd fairly started the notn-
Ipflllnnn proceeded with great rapidity.
The only officers for which more than
one candidate was presented wer« those
of attorney general, superintendent of
schools and stato printer. All the other
nominations wero mada by acclama
tion.
During the proceedings of the con
vention the following resolution offered
by Frank Gould of San Francisco was
adopted:
Score Hearst's Machine
"Resolved, That in the so-called In
dependence league we recognize a poli
tical machine created by W. R. Hearst
for his own political preferment and of
which he Is the undisputed boss, and nti
Irgenlous end.-'.vor to forestall and pro
vent tho nomination for president and
to compass the defeat of America's
greatest citizen, William J. Bryan; we
therefore denotinoe such purposes and
call upon all true Democrats to oppose
such ends."
There was Considerable delay In
starting tho real work of the conven
tion on account of the fact that the
committee on platform was not ready
to tender Its report. $;•«
When the convention assembled at
11 o'clock this morning H. P. Andrews,
chairman of the committee on creden
tials, made his report.
Adjourn Till 2
An adjournment was then taken until
2 o'clock. There were various recesses
during the afternoon until th« com
mittee on platform announced It had
completed Its work.
When the time for nominations had
arrived, W. D. Jacobs of Stockton
placed the name of Theodore A. Bell
before the convention for governor. He
said in part:
Jacobs Nominates Bell
"I arise to nominate a man for gov
ernor—a man that will be . the next
governor of the state. (Applause).
"Ho is a self-made man who worked
his way through school and who then
took the examinations and was admit
ted to the bar. For four years he was
district attorney of Napa county, and
so well did he serve his constituents
that he was sent to congress.
"While he was representative In
congress he led the fight for labor
against the shipbuilding trust and was
instrumental In having the first battle
ship constructed on this coast built at
Mare Island. :\-t ;•.<■*■
"Gentlemen, I have the honor to
place in nomination the Hon. Theodore
A. Bell."
The applause continued for several
minutes after Bell's name had been an
nounced. Bells were rung by the mem
bers of the Los Angeles delegation and
a large bell in one end of the hall was
rung. . !r. •
Bell's nomination was seconded by
Jud.ge James M. Palmer of Napa.
Declared by Acclamation
Judge John A. Raker of Modoc moved
that the. nominations be closed, and
Bell was declared the nominee by ac
clamation.
Amidst shouts and applause that
lasted for several minutes Mr. Bell was
literally carried to the platform, where
he brought the delegates to their feet
in a stirring address. He said in part:
"1 am keenly sensible to the honor
you have conferred on me and I am
fully alive to the great responsibili
ties that are attached to the nomi
nation.
"I accept the commission you have
tendered me. And from now until the
6th of November I will keep that com
mission unsullied.
"We meet today as the representa
tives of the only sovereign power in
this state, the people themselves. I
believe that the work of this conven
tion will be of such a character that
it will present a strong contrast to the
work of a convention which assembled
a week ago.
"I believe we have met here today as
the representatives of popular govern
ment. This convention In my judgment
meets on high .ground. I believe it
takes a position which none may as
sail. Nobody will be able to say that
we are dictated by any special Inter
est.
Bo6sism and Free Rule
"The coming fight before the people
will not be so much a battle, of Re
publicans and Dem/icrata as a struggle
between bad and good and bosslsm and
free rule.
"I thank you for the great honor ydu
have conferred on me. I approve of
the platform you have adopted. With
the assistance of the manhood and wo
manhood of California I believe we can
carry our'banner to success."
After Bell had left the platform
Marshall Dlggs, who was a candidate
up to the opening of the convention for
tho gubernatorial nomination, was
called upon for nn address. He said:
"I aspired to the nomination for gov
ernor, but when I found you wanted
Bell I withdrew. I pledge my support
to him and I hope he will be elected."
Cheers (or Diggs
Cheers 'were tendered Dlggs as lie
took his scat.
leadore B. Dockweiler of I^os Ange
les nominated Thomas O. Toland of
Ventura for lieutenant governor.
Timothy Spellacy seconded the nomi
nation of Toland and lie was declared
nominated by acclamation.
When Toland had been escorted to
the platform he said:
"I appreciate the honor you have
conferred on mo In declaring me the
running mate of Theodore A. Bell. I
believe In the principles thnt have been
outlined by Mr. Bell and I wilt do my
utmost to assist him."

of Butte county for secretary of state.
