GAGE MEN CONTROL REPUBLICAN CONVENTION Solid Delegation of Eleven Chosen For Him in State Convention—Congressional Delegation for Daniels of Riverside. The Orange county Republican convention, in session at Armory hall at Santa Ana on Tuesday, endorsed Gov. Gage's administration and selected eleven delegates to the state convention favorable to him, as follows: At large—Hon. J. W. Ballard. First Supervisor district—Dr. Ball and T. F. Alexander of Santa Ana. Second Supervisor district—Wm. Mitchell of Garden Grove, Samuel Watters of Westminster. Third Supervisor district—Richard Melrose of Anaheim, S. O. Walker of Buena Park. Fourth Supervisor district—G. A. Harlin of Yorba, Nelson Edwards of Orange. Fifth Supervisor district—Don Marco Forster of San Juan, Dr. Cushman of Tustin. The delegation is distinctly anti-Mc Fadden and is favorable to Gov. Gage. No instructions were adopted, but the Governor was warmly endorsed by the convention. Boss McFadden and his henchman, Sarsaparilla Shaw, had been making a fight against the Governor for many months past, and had sent out all manner of reports about how many delegates Flint would get in the county. Even Dr. Pardee, on his recent visit to Southern California, was "assured" he would get a bunch of delegates from this county, but the convention seemed to have forgotten the Doctor since he shaved his whiskers. The convention was called to order at 10:30 by Z. B. West, chairman of the county central committee. The first contest between the Gage and anti-Gage forces came on the organization of the convention. E. E. Keech of Santa Ana placed in nomination for that honor Richard Melrose of this city. Buck Wallace, a McFadden henchman, nominated C. C. Chapman of Placentia. Orange, Buena Park and other surrounding precincts seconded Melrose. Fullerton seconded Chapman. delegates to the state and congressional conventions. The convention dispersed into supervisor district conventions. The Third Supervisor district organized by electing Mr. Melrose chairman and W. S. Tipton secretary. Herman Dickel nominated R. Melrose for delegate to the state convention. Jos. Burke nominated S. O. Walker for the same honor. Nominations were declared closed and Melrose and Walker were declared elected as delegates. For delegate to the Congressional convention the following nominations were made: F. Shanley nominated C. S. Kennedy of Buena Park. H. A. Dickel nominated C. C. Chapman. M. Fritz nominated A. McDermont. Charley Norman nominated A. W. Swain. F. Shanley nominated W. S. Tipton. Tipton and Kennedy withdrew. The ballot resulted: Chapman 32, Swain 18, McDermont 14. Chapman and Swain were declared the nominees. The convention reassembled, and the results of the elections were announced to the convention as follows: First district—State: Dr. Ball, T. J. Alexander. Congress: H. K. Snow, Nat N. Brown. Second district—State: Wm. Mitchell, Samuel Watters. Congress: Oliver Hill, R. P. Wardell. Third district—State: R. Melrose, S. O. Walker. Congress: C. C. Chapman, A. W. Swain. Fourth district—State: G. A. Harlin, Nelson Edwards. Congress: W. B. Williams, E. R. Williams. Fifth district—State: Don Marco Forster, Dr. Cushman. Congress: Jas Wilder, G. B. Thompson. For delegate at large Hon. J. W. Ballard was elected by acclamation. The Judge was called for amid cheers and delivered a telling speech. The Judge is an orator of no mean ability. For delegate at large to the congress convention C. C. Chapman was proposed. After consideration he decided to accept the honor, and therefore resigned as delegate from the Third supervisor district. The delegates from that district again reassembled, being given two minutes by the chairman to select an issue specific for discussion. Has Not Accepted Gifts From San Quentin, as Libelously Charged by Johnny Spreeckels—His Letter Declining Such a Gift a Year and a Half Ago. Gov. Gage has issued the following signed statement refuting the cowardly attempt to defame his character by John D. Spreeckels of the San Francisco Call: "LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11, 1902." "Referring to the continued libelous attacks upon me by the San Francisco Call I wish to publicly declare that I have never received nor caused to be made for me any convict-made furniture nor convict-made articles of any kind, nor have I ever received any gift manufactured in any public institution in this state." "Among the many crafty artificers adopted by the Call to give color to its unfounded charges in order to defame my nomination are reproductions of shipping receipts by officers of the prison and others." I notice among them the reproduced shipping receipts one including the shipping of my little invalid son's chair, which chair was bought for him by me long before my election to office. "Another reproduced shipping receipt is that of a chair made by a convicted Larryabee, which the Californians say was returned after its pretended exposure, since May 24, 1902." The making and shipping of this chair by Larryabee was at time (namely in November, 1900) unknown to me but when apprised by letter from Larryabee of this fact I immediately wrote and mailed a letter to him refusing the offer, and then caused the chair to be reshipped to the prison. The following is a copy of my letter to Larryabee with its date: "STATE CAPITOL, Dec. 25, 1900." "Mr. F. H. Larrabee, care of Warden Aguirre, San Quentin Prison, California—Dear Sir: After being forwarded from place to place about the state your very kind note of date Nov. 22, 1900, has finally reached me at Sacramento." "I thank you very much for your expressions of kindness, as well as for the birthday offering made by yourself for me; but public duty compels me to say to you that it would be highly improper The convention was called to order at 10:30 by Z. B. West, chairman of the county central committee. The first contest between the Gage and anti-Gage forces came on the organization of the convention. E. E. Keech of Santa Ana placed in nomination for that honor Riohard Melrose of this city. Buck Wallace, a McFadden heuchman, nominated C. C. Chapman of Placeia. Orange, Buena Park and other surrounding precincts seconded Melrose. Fullerton seconded Chapman. O. A. Mansur was chosen teller. The ballot for chairman resulted as follows: Melrose, 83; Chapman, 39. Chapman moved to make the nomination unanimous, which was done amid great applause. Melrose, on taking the chair, was received with applause and spoke briefly, thanking the convention for the honor conferred upon him. H. Z. Adams of Tustin was chosen secretary of the convention. The following committees were appointed by the chair: Credentials—C. C. Chapman of Placeia, Jos. Burke of Olinda, Judge Stutsman of Santa Ana, Oliver Hill of Westminster, H. K. Snow of Tustin.

The convention adjourned for dinner and assembled again at 1:30. W. M. Peck of Riverside was introduced and made a short political speech, being well received. Mr. Chapman read the report of the Committee on Credentials, finding all precincts represented. Mr. Keech read the report of the Committee on Resolutions, as follows: Resolved, That the Republican party by its wisdom and patriotism has been the great political factor in the present prosperous and happy condition of our country, and has given renewed evidence of its ability and right to administer the affairs of its government. Resolved, That we honor the American manhood of President Roosevelt, and heartily approve of his vigorous and efficient administration of national affairs. Resolved, That Henry T.

Mention of the names of Roosevelt, Gage and Daniels was received with loud applause. Frank Shanley read the report of the Committee on Permanent Organization and Order of Business, respectively report as follows: 1. That the temporary officers of this convention be made permanent. 2.

FRANK SHANLEY, LEVI GOCKLEY, JAMES J. GRAY, C. A. NORMAN, T. J. ALEXANDER. The next business was the election of a county central committee, Bob Williams of West Orange raised a laugh by announcing that the two delegates from his precinct had failed to agree upon a committeeman. They stood, he said, one and one, each for himself. The Chair—The convention will give the West Orange delegates two minutes to caucus and arrive at some conclusion of the matter. Williams—Yes, but the other delegate has gone home. [Shouts of laughter.] The chairman said the convention had troubles enough of its own without taking up the fight for committeeman from West Orange precinct, [laughter] but upon his suggestion the convention unanimously endorsed Williams as such committeeman. New Central Committee The new county central committee as chosen by the delegates follows: Anaheim No. 1—George E. Boyd. Anaheim No. 2—A. W. Swain. Bolss—J.King. Buena Park—S.O.Walker. Delhi—C.E.Buell. El Modena—W.B.Merrill. Fullerton—V.Tresslar. Garden Grove—W.E.Case. Laguna—G.W.Stevens. Los Alamitos—D.J.Parker. Newhope—Chas.Howard. Newport—J.W.Harlin. Olive—C.J.Stanley. Orange No. 1—J.M.Hart. Orange No. 2—M.G.Edwards. Olinda—L.W.Potter. Placentia—William Crowther. Santa Ana No.1—T.J.Alexander. Santa Ana No.2—O.E.Mansur. Santa Ana No.3—N.A.Ulm. Santa Ana No.4—George Robinson. Santa Ana No.5-John N.Anderson. San Joaquin-C.M.Pilgrim. San Juan-R.B.Cook. Trabuco-Walter Robinson. Tustin-Dr.Cushman. West Anaheim-C.A.Norman. West Orange-E.R.Williams. Westminster-F.R.Herren. Yorba-R.P.Marquez. Silverado did not elect a committeeman. In the organization of the new county central committee, Dr. R.A.Cushman, of Tustin, was unanimously chosen as chairman. N.A.Ulm and O.E.Mansur were nominated for temporary secretary. Ulm received twenty votes and Mansur ten. Ulm was declared the temporary secretary. On motion the temporary officers were made the permanent officers. Dr.Cushman made a brief speech to the new committee on the importance of good organization, after which the committee adjourned to meet next Saturday at 1 o'clock. Edwin G.Rogers of Santa Ana and Miss Amy Irish of Norwalk were married at the residence of the bride's parents on Monday. Rev.Mr.Hill of the Norwalk Congregational church officiated. Guests were present from Los Angeles, Olive, Orange, Ontario, Santa Ana and Norwalk. Many gifts were received. Mr. and Mrs.Rogers went to Mt.Lowe for a week's stay. They will be at home in Olive, where Mr.Rogers holds a responsible position with the milling company. "I never in my life have obtained from any state institution any gift large or small," the governor said in manner that apparently convinced him hearers of the truth of his statement "and," the governor added, with equal sincerity, "the object of the stories is the contrary is for the express purpose of defeating my renomination. I feel positive I shall obtain renomination by the decision of the Republican state convention." Governor Gage has been flooded with many demands for information relative to Spreckels' charges from those who are in his confidence here and elsewhere. To all of these requests the governor at first turned a deaf ear, on the ground that it was a court matter He decided, however, after consultation with personal friends to issue the statement printed above—a statement which all of those who heard read declare to be an absolute refutation of the Call charges. Jim MoFadden's Oral "You from Anaheim?" inquire Jeems McFadden after the thunderbolt of Tuesday, to a delegate from one of the home precincts. "Yes, sir," replied the gentleman addressed. "Everybody over there for Gage?" "They are." "You people favor a man for Governor who cannot be elected," pipe Jeems. "That's your opinion," said the man from this town. "It isn't ours, and we have as much right to our opinions as you have to yours." "That's so," said Jeems sadly, as he walked away with a far away look in his eyes.

Charley Bauer and wife have returned from a pleasant outing at Avalon. They were accompanied by a party in which was Col. James Jones, and tell great stories of catches of fish, as well as the killing of wild goats. The Colonel prepared fine spreads for the party, and all hands enjoyed the trip to the fullest extent. Here are some extracts from the diary of our special correspondent: CATALINA ISLAND, Aug. 9, 1902. We arrived at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon, took a row boat and went around Sugar Loaf, when we landed and ate our lunches on the rocks. Then our party went back and Col. Jones in company of Charles Bauer took a trip around Silver canyon, while Mrs. Bauer and Miss Bessie Jones tried their luck at catching fish. They were successful in landing a number of rock bass and thought angling great sport. August 10th we arose early and got our horses for a trip up Silver canyon to hunt goats. We arrived at the canyon at 12:30 p.m., when Mr. Bauer shot his first goat. As we proceeded up the canyon we ran into a small band of these goats and Bauer killed six of them. The fog raised up quite heavily then and we were soon caught in it. No use trying to hunt in a dense fog, so we trailed over the mountains to a place known as Eagle's Nest and got back to camp all safe and sound on the 11th. Here we found Mrs. Bauer and Bessie with a baracouda and some rock bass for our dinner and supper. Col. Jones cooked supper that evening and we had a leg of goat, liver and bacon, baracouda and rock bass. I tell you we had a swell supper that evening. August 12th, 6 a.m. This is our big day fishing. Mr. Bauer takes the steamer for home at 7:15, and the balance of our party takes rods, books and lines, so look out for a big catch of yellow tail harcoada and bass.

Larrabee, care of Warden San Quentin Prison, Californi-Sir: After being forwarded to place about the state, kind note of date Nov. 22, finally reached me at Sacramento. I you very much for your exposition of kindness, as well as for the offering made by yourself for public duty compulsory to say it would be highly improper as an individual, to receive a gift or any other person thus likely restrained of his liberty. Should not only be proper, but commendable, in you to render in your power for the state, for the private purposes of the trust you may continue to our talents to the benefit of which have thus far brought favor with many of the officers who now speak highly of continuance of such a course certainly not redound to your age in any way. The governor nor any other person should make use of offices for individual purposes your confinement. Training these views, I have the present designed for me learned. I appreciate your accolades, however, just as retained the proffered gift, prospectfully, HENRY T. GAGE.

I feel shall obtain renomination by sprinkling, recommending committee be authorized to purchase same as needed. Filed and request granted. Berdrow of ordinance committee reported for first reading ordinance 146, levying a property tax for fiscal year 1902-03. It was read and laid over under the rule. Rust of special committee appointed to see Mr. Everhard relative to purchase by city of lot owned by Catholic church reported he had conferred with that gentleman, who asked $400 for the lot.

The ordinance committee thereupon finally passed ordinance No. 144, creating and maintaining public library. The board agreed to make a monthly appropriation in amount of $25 for support of same, until ley could be made to raise taxes for its support. The ordinance levying a property tax having passed first reading, it was again taken up and a section added including provision for raising money for its support. Clerk Merritt read correspondence from electrical supply companies for series arcs and other apparatus. The same were referred to Engineer Lewis at power house for investigation and report at next meeting. Rust said the Southern Pacific company had in June been permitted to take water for its engines from city water main at the West End, with the understanding that a tank would be immediately erected by it, and a meter installed. Here it was August, and no tank had been erected, the company continuing to take water from the city main without a meter. He moved the railroad company be notified to immediately erect the tank, falling to do which a meter would be attached to main. Weisel supported the motion, being of the opinion that unless the railroad erects the tank the privilege of allowing it to take water without a meter be discontinued. Berdrow insisted the railroad company should be made to put Olive street in passable condition, the thoroughfare having been torn up in laying railroad tracks. To the public improvements committee, with instructions to see it that the railroad be compelled to put street in passable condition. H. A.

The board thought favorably of the proposition, and took the matter under advisement, pending an investigation into legal points and authorities.
