BOLT WHEN TAFT ENDORSEMENT FAILS REGULARS LEAVE COUNTY CONVENTION AMID JEERS FROM ANTLERED HERD PROGRESSIVES IN CONTROL, AND ADOPT T. R. RESOLUTIONS, NAME NEW COMMITTEE Amid cries of "Good bye!" "Goodbye, babies!" and other derisive exclamations from Roosevelters who were in large numerical majority at the Republican county convention at Santa Ana on Saturday afternoon, 55 regular delegates withdrew from the hall, while uproar and dandemonium reigned for several minutes. With regular delegates who had not come in after recess and those who did not attend the convention at all, the number of regulars dissenting from the Bull Moose majority, numbered 70. Several regular delegates remained in the hall to see the proceedings through. The bolt came when the convention, by a vote of 130 to 58, refused to The vote resulted: Wallace 125; Jackman 53. Announcement of the result was greeted by long continued applause from the Roosevelters, who filled the front rows in the hall. W. H. Thomas, of Santa Ana, was elected secretary of the convention by unanimous vote. When Wallace was introduced as presiding officer, the convention looked for a speech from him, but it was doomed to disappointment. He thanked the convention for the honor conferred upon him and added: "Anticipating this action by the convention, I have prepared a list of committees, which I will read, as follows." There was some laughter from delegates in the rear benches at the chairman's frank announcement. He announced the following committees: Credential—S. S. Finley, F. C. Spencer, W. R. Collis, H. A. Wassum, G. W. Stevens. Permanent Organization and Order of Business—S. J. Jackman, J. F. Velasco, R. F. Hazard, C. A. Giles, Arthur McFadden. Resolutions—S. M. Craddick, R. D. Richards, S. M. Davis, E. E. Keech, L. E. Smith. John Beatty, of Santa Ana, arose and moved that each delegate be assessed $1. The collection was immediately taken up, but the Taftites in the rear benches failed to produce. On this fact being announced to the convention, S. M.

With regular delegates who had not come in after recess and those who did not attend the convention at all, the number of regulars dissenting from the Bull Moose majority, numbered 70. Several regular delegates remained in the hall to see the proceedings through. The bolt came when the convention, by a vote of 130 to 58, refused to adopt an amendment to the report of the resolutions committee endorsing Taft. R. D. Richards of Bay City, a member of the resolutions committee, refused to sign the committee's report, which endorsed Roosevelt for the presidency, and in scathing terms, denounced the "theft at the Chicago convention." Mr. Richards said that he had attended many Republican conventions, and had seen differences of opinion among delegates before, notably in the Blaine and McKinley campaigns, but he had never attended a convention which endorsed nominees of a third party and denounced its own presidential candidates. He said he had refused to sign the report of the committee on resolutions, and in view of the action of the convention, said he would not longer remain. Judge Howard, of this city, also denounced the action of the convention in refusing endorsement of the party's nominee for president, exclaiming that he and his associate delegates were ready to withdraw. Following the report of the committee on resolutions, N. A. Ulm, of Santa Ana, offered an amendment endorsing Taft as the party's regularly nominated candidate for president. On defeat of the amendment, 130 to 58, the Taftites withdrew. Delegates withdrawing comprised those of Anaheim, East and West Anaheim, Placentia, Olinda; La Habra, one precinct of Fullerton, San Juan, Huntington Beach, Yorba, Bay City and others. The convention assembled at 2:15 and was called to order by R. Y. Williams, chairman of the county central committee. N. A. Ulm, secretary of the central committee, read the call for the convention as well as the list of delegates to whom credentials had been issued. Upon the convention being ready for business, S. M. Davis arose and placed in nomination for chairman Lew W. Wallace, of Newport Beach, whom he lauded as a progressive Republican who had the endorsement of the Roosevelt contingent. Wallace had been agreed upon as a compromise candidate at a meeting of Progressives in the forenoon. Steele John Beatty, of Santa Ana, arose and moved that each delegate be assessed $1. The collection was immediately taken up, but the Taftites in the rear benches failed to produce. On this fact being announced to the convention, S. M. Craddick, of Orange, moved that the Taftites be given five minutes in which to pay. Failing to come through in that time, he moved the assessment be increased to $1.50. Derisive laughter greeted the announcement, which was greatly increased when F. C. Spencer, of this city, moved an amendment to the effect that if the assessment were not paid in five minutes, it be made a half dollar. The regulars refused to pay the assessment, and upon a recess of 25 minutes being ordered, to permit committees to report, the convention stood adjourned for that time. On reassembling the committees reported. S. M. Craddick read the report of the resolutions committee which eulogized Roosevelt and denounced the "Theft at Chicago." The bolt of regulars followed immediately thereafter. The following county central committee was appointed: Anaheim—First, Doc C. Stall; second, C. E. Chamberlain; third, E. M. Schlotter; fourth, W.

Davis arose and placed in nomination for chairman Lew H. Wallace, of Newport Beach, whom he lauded as a progressive Republican who had the endorsement of the Roosevelt contingent. Wallace had been agreed upon as a compromise candidate at a meeting of Progressives in the forenoon. Steele Finley and S. J. Jackman had been considered as candidates for chairman, but upon their inability to decide upon either, Wallace was selected. After several seconds to Wallace's nomination had come from various parts of the hall, C. E. Bowlen, of this city, nominated Jackman for chairman, amid applause of the regulars who occupied seats in the rear of the hall. Jackman, who occupied a seat among Progressive delegates well in front, arose and declined to permit the use of his name. Chairman Williams ordered the ballot to proceed amid some confusion. E. E. Keech appealed from the decision of the chair amid applause from Progressives. In support of his ruling that a ballot proceed forthwith, Williams announced that no one could debar the minority from voting for its choice for chairman. "This convention is not yet organized," he said. "Two candidates have been placed in nomination for chairman and there is no rule of law that I know anything about, which permits me to say that delegates here haye not the right to vote for their choice for presiding officer." He ignored Keech's point of order, and amid cries of "Vote! Vote!" ordered the ballot to proceed.

AHEIM GAZET ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1912 DEMOCRATS IN HARMONIOUS SESSION INDORSE PARTY NOMINEES AND PREPARE FOR AN ENERGETIC CAMPAIGN NEW COUNTY CENTRAL COMMITTEE NAMED—H. G. AMES PRESIDES OVER UNTERRIFIED While Bull Moose and stand-pat factions of the Republican party were engaged in merry war for the disruption of the party at the opera house at Santa Ana on Saturday afternoon, Democratic delegates held a harmonious convention at the old armory hall across the way. They adopted a platform endorsing Democratic nominees and named a new county central committee. Homer G. Ames, of this city, was elected chairman and C. D. Overshiner, of Santa Ana, secretary of the convention. The chairman named the following committees: Credentials, B. E. Tarver, J. E. Pleasant, J. J. Schneider, A. Swartout, S. N. Fuller; order of Committee on Credentials—B. E. Tarver, J. E. Pleasant, J. J. Schneider, A. Swartout, S. N. Fuller. Order of Business and Permanent Organization—D. C. Pixley, S. G. Huff, Lee Daniel, G. A. Edgar, W. T. Newland. Resolutions—H. C. Head, Jas Fullerton, Flora M. Pyle, L. P. Hart, L. B. Gardner. SHOT TWO DEER—BOTH ESCAPED John Bush Has Bad Luck Looking For Venison in North Creek John Bush in a recent hunt for deer at North Creek in Antelope Valley, shot two fine bucks, and while each was undoubtedly mortally wounded, both made their escape. He tracked the first for more than a mile by its blood prints. Another hunter took up the trail and followed it five miles without avail. He saw where the deer had laid down a half dozen times but he never got near enough to catch a glimpse of it. Bush's second deer was shot the following day but it also made its escape. Mike Lopez found the carcass a week later. The two hind quarters had been cut away and the remainder left upon the ground. Bush told Lopez where to look for the deer and the latter had no difficulty in locating it. "I guess I can't run as well as I used to," said Bush, who is probably the best shot in Orange county, while talking of his experiences this week. REPUBLICANS WILL HOLD A CONVENTION CALL ISSUED FOR MEETING TO BE HELD AT SANTA ANA NEXT SATURDAY AFTERNOON REGULARS AND MOOSE COME TO PARTING OF WAYS, IRRECONCILABLE CONFICT AT HAND Incensed at the action of Bull Moose delegates at Saturday's Republican convention, at which resolutions were adopted endorsing third party candidates and referring to the party as the "late Republican party," regular members of the party will meet in convention at the opera house at Santa Ana next Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. It was known a week ago that a bolt of regulars was inevitable and it came when the convention refused endorsement of President Taft. The report of the committee on resolutions stung regular delegates in its reference to the "theft at the Chicago convention," as well as its extrolling of Roosevelt and Johnson. An amendment was of- cratic delegates held a harmanious convention at the old armory hall across the way. They adopted a platform endorsing Democratic nominees and named a new county central committee. Homer G. Ames, of this city, was elected chairman and C. D. Overshiner, of Santa Ana, secretary of the convention. The chairman named the following committees: Credentials, B. E. Tarver, J. E. Pleasant, J. J. Schneider, A. Swartout, S. N. Fuller; order of business and permanent organization, D. C. Pixley, S. G. Huff, Lee Daniel, G. A. Edgar, W. T. Newland; resolutions, H. C. Head, James Fullerton, Flora M. Pyle, L. P. Hart, L. B. Gardner. The resolutions congratulated the Democrats of the nation upon the nomination of Wilson and Marshall, declared the party the real progressive party of the nation, deplored the corrupt and criminal influences which have fattened at the expense of the public under Republican rule, and proposed to strike at the root of the evil, the trusts, by "an immediate revision of the tariff downward and to continue the revision until the laws of taxation shall have been transformed from a system of just and reasonable charges which shall fall where they will impose the lightest burden." The county central committee was organized by H. C. Head and C. D. Overshiner, chairman and secretary, respectively. The county central committee was selected as follows: Anaheim No. 1—Godfrey Stock. Anaheim No. 2—C. E. Jones. Anaheim No. 3—H. J. Westerman. Anaheim No. 4—Henry Adams. Bolsa—Sterling Price. Buaro—A. J. Smith. Buena Park—Geo. B. Miller. Delhi—O. A. Stewart. El Modena—W. H. Flippen.

Los Alamitos—M. F. Reagan. McPherson—Roy Bishop. Newport—J. D. Hunton. Newport Beach—S. J. Jumper. Olinda—H. Collins. Olive—Eugene Elson. Orange No. 1—James Fullerton. Orange No. 2—F. W. Grum. Orange No. 3—F. Bell. Orange No. 4—D. C. Pixley. Orange No. 5—R. C. Dalton. I guess I can't run as well as I used to," said Bush, who is probably the best shot in Orange county, while talking of his experiences this week. "I can shoot as well as ever, but I'm not as nimble on my feet as I used to be. I shot the first deer at 100 yards and it was coming down the hill toward me. It did not know whence the shot came from, and continued coming in my direction. My shell stuck in the gun, and I could not dislodge it. I whipped out my revolver and shot at it several times, but missed it. I followed it a mile but could not overtake it. Another hunter took up the trail and followed it for over five miles, but with no better success. I shot my second deer the following day. The ball went through his neck and I could see him bleeding. I followed his trail but could not overtake him. I told Mike Lopez where to look for it and he found it on his recent hunting trip to North Creek. Some one had cut away the two hind quarters and left the remainder upon the ground." JUDGE SHANLEY DECORATED Wears Badge of Prisoners of War Association Judge and Mrs. Shanley, and Mr. and Mrs. Donahoe, of this city, attended the G. A. R., encampment at Los Angeles, on Wednesday, and occupied seats in the grand stand while the procession of veterans passed in review. On arriving in Los Angeles, they went to the Alexander Hotel where the judge met an old-time friend in the person of Colonel Walker, Adjutant General of the National Prisoners of War Association, of Pittsburg, Pa., whom he had not seen in 40 years. "Hello, Shanley, old boy," exclaimed Colonel Walker, extending his hand, "How are you?" The two former neighbors shook hands warmly and a pleasant hour was spent in recounting experiences of the long ago. Colonel Walker decorated the judge with badges of the Prisoners of War Association and the Grand Army encampment. Later the colonel escorted the party to the grand stand where seats in the front row were provided for them. Colonel Walker promised the judge glimpse of it. Bush's second deer was shot the following day but it also made its escape. Mike Lopez found the carcess a week later. The two hind quarters had been cut away and the remainder left upon the ground. Bush told Lopez where to look for the deer and the latter had no difficulty in locating it. "I guess I can't run as well as I used to," said Bush, who is probably the best shot in Orange county, while talking of his experiences this week. "I can shoot as well as ever, but I'm not as nimble on my feet as I used to be. I shot the first deer at 100 yards and it was coming down the hill toward me. It did not know whence the shot came from, and continued coming in my direction. My shell stuck in the gun, and I could not dislodge it. I whipped out my revolver and shot at it several times, but missed it. I followed it a mile but could not overtake it. Another hunter took up the trail and followed it for over five miles, but with no better success. I shot my second deer the following day. The ball went through his neck and I could see him bleeding. I followed his trail but could not overtake him. I told Mike Lopez where to look for it and he found it on his recent hunting trip to North Creek. Some one had cut away the two hind quarters and left the remainder upon the ground." Immediately after leaving the convention, regulars decided to call another convention for Saturday. All regular delegates in nomination at the primaries September 3, whether ejected to the convention or not will be entitled to seats in the convention. There will be a total of 202 delegates. Resolutions endorsing Taft will be adopted and a new county central committee appointed. An irreconcilable conflict between the factions is at hand, and unless regular Taft electors shall be placed upon the ballot, which now seems problematic, regulars will undoubtedly vote the Democratic ticket in a body. County Chairman Williams and Secretary Ulm this week mailed to all regular delegates copies of the following call for the convention: "Dear Sir: Enclosed you will find a certificate as delegate to the Republican county ocnvention to be held at the grand opera house in Santa Ana, Saturday, September 21st, at 2 P.M. A convention having been called for Saturday, September 14th, and the National Progressive party being in control of the said convention and not having performed the duties for which the said convention was called, but having passed resolutions condemning the Republican party and its standard bearers, we deem it best in the interest of the Republican party to call a convention of selecting a new county central committee for the Republican party which shall have control and management of the party campaign, to take such measures as may be proper and necessary to aid in the election of the nominees of the Republican party and such other business as might properly come before the said convention.

Overshiner succeeds himself in the position. Head takes the place of W.L.Duggan. The committees of the convention were: "How are you?" The two former neighbors shook hands warmly and a pleasant hour was spent in recounting experiences of the long ago. Colonel Walker decorated the judge with badges of the Prisoners of War Association and the Grand Army encampment. Later the colonel escorted the party to the grand stand where seats in the front row were provided for them. Colonel Walker promised the judge that he would come to see him before returning to Pittsburg and the latter has been preparing to give him the time of his life. The judge informed the colonel on the quiet that Anaheim was the best town on earth and that he had rather be in jail here than to live in the most palatial place in Pittsburg. The judge hopes to bring the colonel to his way of thinking before permitting him to return to his home in the blizzard belt beyond the Rivers.

She had been in the enjoyment of excellent health up to the time of her illness, and although everything which medical skill could devise was employed to save her, her disease baffled the physicians and she passed away as stated.She was a bright little girl, a comfort and a joy to her parents and her loss is keenly mourned by them.

In their sorrow the parents of the little girl have the sympathy of the entire community. ZETTE BER 19. 1912 NUMBER 48 PUBLICANS HOLD A REENTION FOR MEETING TO BE NTA ANA NEXT AFTERNOON.

TIMES GOOD IN NORTHWEST Mr. Elliott Returns From South Dakota, Reports Great Grain Yield W. J. Elliott returned on Thursday from a month's visit to Columbia, South Dakota, near which city he has a 320-acre farm from which he is harvesting a bumper wheat yield. Mr. Elliott reports good times in the northwest and large crops of grain being cupped by St. Joseph's Academy as a select boarding and day school. All the heavy work has been completed and the woodwork and floors are being varnished in preparation for the opening of school next Monday. The building is an impossing, two-story structure of blue brick and is built substantially from the basement to the roof. It fronts on Broadway and extends laterally half way between Helena and Palm streets. One walks up the large cement steps and is ushered into the reception hall. To the left is the conveniently arranged office of the Sister Superior and to the right is a cozy parlor. All rooms have large windows and are well lighted and ventilated. Floors are of hardwood and are finished in a light color, as is all the woodwork in the building. The main floor is divided into class rooms, study rooms, kitchen, dining rooms and music rooms. The class rooms, of which there are four, are equipped with new desks and blackboards. A kitchen and large dining room occupy the northeast corner of the building. Next them on the west is a large room to be used for study, and for instruction in painting and other art work. On the east are four small rooms in which pianos will be placed and musical instruction given. A broad stairway leads to the upper story where are the sleeping and rest rooms for the girl students and the sisters in charge of the school. Also on this floor is a chapel where devotions will be held. A large porch fronts on the north and overlooks a grove of walnut trees in the midst of which the building is situated. There is also a trunk room for the baggage of the boarders, and two rest rooms for the accommodation of sick students and sisters. The building will be heated and ventilated by a hot-air appliance situated in the basement which will guarantee fresh air at all times. Accommodations are provided for 35 boarding students. Rev. Father Dubbel informs us that when the patronage justifies, other large buildings will be erected for the accommodation of a larger number of students. The school is an institution of the Dominican Sisters and will be in personal charge of Sister Superior Henrietta, who will be assisted by a corps of other sisters, all from the mother house at Havana. Seven sisters are now in Anaheim and these will take up the work immediately. Young boys will be taken as day scholars through the grammar grades, but the course for girls will also include four years of high school work.

Elliott returned on Thursday from a month's visit to Columbia, South Dakota, near which city he has a 320-acre farm from which he is harvesting a bumper wheat yield. Mr. Elliott reports good times in the northwest and large crops of grain being harvested. Near Columbia there are 19 machines threshing grain, and the yield is the largest in many years. He saw Mr. Lavin and Mr. Sheridan while in Columbia. They are each threshing grain upon their large ranches, crops being excellent. Mr. Elliott reports labor scarce in the Northwest, and it many points farmers come to the train offering $3.00 a day to field laborers. He returns to Anaheim better satisfied with this city than ever, and is negotiating for the sale of his ranch in South Dakota, with a view to making extensive investments here. Anaheim's schools are something of which we may well be proud and we commend the boards of trustees in their untiring efforts to give our boys and girls the best education possible. Our school buildings are now in the best condition in history. A most efficient corps of teachers has been secured and a very successful school year is looked forward to. A young Mexican on Monday tried to demonstrate his dexterity with a knife upon an American lad of about his own age. It seems to us he is starting rather young. The sons usually go the old man one better. The school is an institution of the Dominican Sisters and will be in personal charge of Sister Superior Henrietta, who will be assisted by a corps of other sisters, all from the mother house at Havana. Seven sisters are now in Anaheim and these will take up the work immediately. Young boys will be taken as day scholars through the grammar grades, but the course for girls will also include four years of high school work. Girls are taken as boarding or as day students. The regular state series subjects will be taught and special classes in art, languages, music and embroidery will be held. Registrations were received on Monday and Tuesday and upwards of 75 students have enrolled to date. Regular classes will be held beginning on Monday next. The Academy will be formally dedicated early in October when many high church officials will probably be present. Simon Lybarger, accompanied by his wife, took in the Grape Day at Escondido on Admission Day. He reports a fine time on the trip and cordial treatment at the hands of the Escondido citizens. No one could buy grapes on that day, but ten tons of the luscious fruit in bulk were given away by girls. Twenty-five hundred cardboard cartons containing about a pound of grapes each were also given away. The grapes were of the finest quality and of large size, and were much enjoyed by those present. Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Holcomb and family and Miss Dora Zeyn are home from an enjoyable outing of several weeks at Seven Oaks.
