COUNTY TICKET NOMINATED BY DEMOCRATS Sheff-Worn Goods at Saturday's Convention — Mr. Spurgeon Asks Concerning Date of State Convention—What Happened to Johnson The democratic county convention met at Santa Ana on Saturday and placed in nomination a bobtail ticket for county officers, naming no candidates for assessor, recorder nor coroner. The party will go before the people admitting its inability to elect candidates to these offices, and in the convention and out of it one could hear that this course was a mistake. While the convention delegated to the county central committee authority to fill these vacancies should occasion arise, it is practically certain these places will be left vacant on the ticket. The convention endorsed President Roosevelt "for adopting democratic principles," and re-echoed the sentiments of the Los Angeles democrats for non-partisanship in politics. There was no delegate as that which sat in same hall a week or two before total number of delegates voting 126. Neither El Toro nor Laguna delegates, and a call of the house ascertain if there were any demos present from those precincts break no response. Thomas McKeever of Santa Ana elected chairman of the convention. W. E. Baker of the same place s tary. The usual committees were applied, after which an adjournment taken to 1 o'clock. On reconvening at that hour the ports of the committees were read adopted. The resolutions read alows: The Democratic party of Our county, in convention assembled, mends the persistent efforts of Democratic members of congress of the distinguished leaders of party which have resulted in the closure of wide-spread dishonest graft in high places, which disclo must result in some relief to the lie and will result in much good proper and vigorous measures form are adopted. We congratulate His Excellent President Roosevelt, on his adde and advocacy of many of the prin of the Democratic national plat but regret that so far his efforts resulted in words rather than de and We congratulate the Democ party upon the prospect of a s return from abroad of our honore distinguished leader William L convention and out of it one could hear that this course was a mistake. While the convention delegated to the county central committee authority to fill these vacancies should occasion arise, it is practically certain these places will be left vacant on the ticket. The convention endorsed President Roosevelt "for adopting democratic principles," and re-echoed the sentiments of the Los Angeles democrats for non-partisanship in politics. There was no spread-eagleism in the convention, nothing about "equal rights to all and special privileges for none," none of the soaring eloquence of Col. Heathman which the party has been wont in the aforetime to listen to with bated breath. True, Heathman was there, but if he placed any one in nomination, that man's defeat was not necessarily encompassed thereby, as used to be the case, because he had no opposition. The slate went through without hitch. Even Ray Billingsley of Squashville could not force Beswick's nomination for school superintendent by moving to close nominations before the slate candidate could be trotted out. That was the only contest in the convention—the nomination for school superintendent. It was the same old fight of four years ago over again. Then Zelian defeated Beswick after an exciting race. This time it appeared Beswick's nomination would slip through as all the others, without opposition, but the slate men rallied to his support, and the Tustin man again "win out" over the man from Garden Grove.

The name of Bryan drew out the first real noise of the convention, but the gathering was not a noisy one. Indeed it was probably the quietest convention ever held by the party in the county. Nominations for county offices were called for. W.T. Brown of Fullerton was on his feet and in a voice which could not be heard half through the hall nominated Theo. Lacy for sheriff. There was no opposition, and Lacy was nominated by acclamation. Dr. Gordon of Westminster in a piping voice placed H.C. Head in nomination for district attorney. There being no opposition, Head's nomina- tion was made unanimous. Lawyer Marks of Fullerton nominated S.N. Fuller of that town for county clerk. Fuller was a new one on the convention, but no one opposed his nomination and he was led to the slaughter by unanimous consent. E.Johnson of Fullerton took down from the shelf, brushed off and presented to the convention J.C.Joplin Electric Railway Ta Rumors of electric railway continued during the week, seems from reports, coming from authenticated sources, that will have a cross–roads line from side to the ocean before long.

Fuller was a new one on the convention, but no one opposed his nomination and he was led to the slaughter by unanimous consent. E. Johnson of Fullerton took down from the shelf, brushed off and presented to the convention J. C. Joplin for county treasurer. In thanking the convention for the honor conferred on him, Joplin acknowledged he had made mistakes in the past, but promised to be no worse in the coming time than in the years that have passed into history. His nomination was made by acclamation. W. T. Brown, speaking a little louder, nominated Robinson of the pink undershirt for tax collector. Brown said he had known Robinson since he was knee high to a grasshopper and he never knew him to wear a pink undershirt in his life. Delegate McDannald of Garden Grove moved the secretary be instructed to cast the vote of Orange county for the nominee. McDannald's remarks evoked some lauder, after the subsidence of which the chair called for nominations for the next office. Lawyer Ames at this point awoke from a siesta he had been enjoying, and moved nominations close for tax collector, and the secretary be instructed to cast the ballot for Robinson. The chairman—That action has been already done. You are in on the slow freight, Mr. Ames. [Laughter.] Ray Billingsley persisted. He said that if the secretary had cast the vote of the convention for Robinson, he failed to recall it. He desired that Robinson should read his title clear, and therefore moved that the secretary perform the honors again. The chairman—The chair stands corrected. The secretary did not cast the vote of this convention for Robinson, but the convention voted to instruct him to cast the vote of Orange county for him. This was done, and as the greater embraces the less, the chair considered sufficient action had been taken. Billingsley's resolution prevailed, and Robinson's nomination was made unanimous. Delegate Price of Huntington Beach nation for district attorney. There being no opposition, Head's nomination was made unanimous. Lawyer Marks of Fullerton nominated S. N. Fuller of that town for county clerk. Fuller was a new one on the convention, but no one opposed his nomination and he was led to the slaughter by unanimous consent. E.

Delegate Price of Huntington Beach arose and solemnly asserted that he had been asked if he "was a democrat." He answered this by saying that he had probably been the victim of more republican abuse than any man in the hall. He then delivered a rambling talk on statehood politics for Arizona, and wound up by nominating G W. Warner of Huntington Beach for auditor. No questions were asked, and the nomination was made by acclamation. W N. Baker of Santa Ana nominated R F Beswick for school superintendent. Ray Billingsley arose and moved that nominations close and that the secretary do the honors for Beswick. The chair declined to put the motion continued from page 8. Anaheim Laundry Company J T.
