Pardee, of Oakland, is the Republican candidate for Governor, and the Herrin-Burns-Kelly-Gage rail road machine has received a knockout blow. The end came early this morning. and the Gage votes began going to the Alameda County candidate on the second ballot. Just a few started then, but as the toll was called the third time It was seen that the forces were lining up for Pardee on one side and Thomas Flint', Jr., on the other.-Gge-beEan-ta-iose early in the game, and Ws managers, largely rail road people, found they could not hold their own. and they made virtue of neces sity and gave the signal for the votes to go to Pardee. One rumor afloat, and to which many give credence, is that Gage will ask for the nomination of the Union Labor party for Governor. It is said that he will do this for the purpose of breaking into the Republican vote in revenge for being turned down. He Is now satisfied that he can hope for no further recognlUon at the hands of the Republican party, and he depends on his record as a friend of labor to carry him through. "With tho downfall of the Governor also goes the rule of Dan Burns, MarUn Kelly, Sam Ralney and W. F. Herrin. the Southern Pacific Railroad's chief lawyer. The nomination of Dr. Pardee appears to have infused an elemoht of harmony into the situation, which was reflected in the other nominations, and which bodes well for the success of the Uckct at the polls In November. Gnjfe Hopefnl to the Last. The contest for Governor came to an end when the sixth ballot was taken. "When the convenUon reassembled this morning, the forces of Governor Gage were sUll hopeful of making some com bination whereby the deadlock could be broken, and the opposing forces manifest ed confidence of conUnulng the battle along the lines of yesterday. It had been reported that a secret agreement had been entered into between the Gage contingent and the managers of Pardee's campaign, whereby the latter was to be given the full force of the Governor's strength if th9 fight looked hopeless for the admin istration clement, but no definite infor mation concerning the time of the trans fer of the votes had even leaked out. Governor Gage reached his highest vote on the fourth ballot, when 339& were cred ited to him. and on the next he dropped to 335V4. The end came amidst the great est confusion. "When such a state was reached In the sixth roll-call, the Gage people began to cast their votes for Par dee. and then the nllde toward the Ala meda County physician commenced amid an uproar that Interfered with the taking of the ballot. Long before San Diego County was reached, Mr. Pardee's nom lnaUon was assured, and then the Flint . men gracefully struck tholr colors and I paid Pardee the compliment of voUng for him. J. O. Hayes, of San Jose, one of the un successful candidates, moved to make the nomination unanimous, and Lacy, of Sa linas, who nominated Senator Flint, and Judge McKlnley, of Los Xngeles, who nominated Gage, seconded the motion. which was carried. Dr. Pa.rdee was called to the platform and made a brief address; thanking the convention and prcdlcUng success. The first ballot today was the fourth. and was followed by two more. They re sulted as follows: , Fourth ' Gage 3394 Flint IS. 274 Pardee 137 Edson 23 Hayei 57 Fifth - y Gage 333H x lint :su Pardee .

The Navy Department made public today Rear-Ad miral Hlgglnson's official report upon the "search problem" which was conducted by the blue fleet, under his own command, for the white squadron, under Command er Plllsbury. off the New England coast.

EXTENDS FROM JAVA TO JAPAN Europeans as Well as Natives Fall Prey to the Scourge Supply ' ot Cpfflns -In Ex- ' - -. bausted. . VICTORIA. B. C. Aug. 27. The epi demic of cholera Is reaching alarming proportions on the other aide of the Pa cific, the outbreak extenamg further and having more victims than ever before reported. It extends from Java to Japan, and almost every city on the coast, and many Jn the interior, are affected. The disease, too, is being contracted by-Europeans, as well as natives. In Hong Kong, from the first of the out bieak to August 6, there had been -523 cases, six of tho patients' being Euro peans, and 511 deaths, of whom four were Europeans. In Tien Tsin, the last report placed the number of cases for the year' at 1019, and the deaths 764 within the city walls, and 1015 cases and 5D3 deaths outside the city walls. In other places in China, the pro portion of cases and deaths- la just . as great. , A writer from Kuelln, Kwang SI Province, says: ' "I write from a city stricken with a violent epidemic of cholera. People are dying by hundreds daily. Outside the city over 1000 have died. Whole families arc reported to have died. The beggars are by this time extinct. Among such people few can have survived. They are to be seen-dylng everywhere and numbers more are put out to die. The top of the wall is a -favorite place for such, as is nlso the King City Square, .in front . or the examination halte. There any num ber can be seen ir, all stages, dying and dead. It is must pitiable to see and to be powerless to do anything to help. The supply of coffins has lon since been ex hausted. Now all the tub and, bucket makers and the carpenters are making any sort of coffins to try to meet the great demand. But. still this 1b not enough, for I hear that numbers are being buried merely wrapped up In mat ting, often two and three together." A dispatch from Java says hundreds have died there. The Japanese papers publish no statis tics of tho cases in that country, but hrrc is a sample report which shows how prevalent the disease Is: "Reports from cholera-stricken towns grow more serious. Ninety new cases and 23 'deaths were reported from Okay ama yesterday. Today's dispatches state that there were 19 new cases and 32 deaths there Sunday. Six cases are re ported from Osaka today. The total number of cases there up to the present Is given as 4S. of which 20 have been AsIaUc cholera. Two cases are reported from Kioto today. The cases at Tako motsu exceeded 20 on the ICth. A tele gram says the residents are panic-stricken." In Okayama, the disease is very bad. The total number of cases In the week ending the 4th Inst, was 262. out of which 1S3 deaths occurred. There were' 70 new cases the 3d, and 2S deaths occurred tne same date. Dysentery threatens -to spread to Nagoya and the neighborhood. The total number of cases the 31st ult. was 17 In Nagoya and lo In the sur rounding district. The number of case3 since the first outbreak this year up to the came date was 460, of which 56 cases proved fatal. A Coroner's jury, assisted by medical "evidence, arrived at the conclusion that the 13 boys, eons of missionaries and European merchants, who cicti suaaenij at the China Inland Mission School, were riot poisoned, but that they died of chol era.

They were married, but at l ociock luira steln succumbed to cholera. NO FAIR WILL CONTEST. Compromise With Eastern Relatives . of Mrs. Fair. CHICAGO. Aug. 23. A special to the Record-Herald from San Francisco says: There will be. Ho contests over the estates ot either Charles Fair or fcis wife by Mrs. Fair's relatives. Mrs. Harriett E. Ielson mother of Mrs. Fair, on behalf of herself and her children, has relinquished for a ,sum Jn .cash -all the claims to the estates of Fair or his wife. The attorneys inter ested would not disclose the amount paid, but It Is eaid to be $500,000. By the terms of the compact the estate of Charles L. Fair goes entirely to his relatives, Mrs. Hermann Oelrlchs and Mrs. W.iK. Van derbllt, Jr.. who will also receive all Mr3. Fair's property. The only possibility of any future trouble lies in the discovery of a late will of Charles Fair, leaving prop erty, to others than his klnfolk and his wife. That such a will exists or did exist ot one time is stated In positive terma by several of Fair's friends, who find they have recclved.no part of his millions. Irs. Nelson has announced her inten tion of making her home in California. Her sens. Charles J. Smith, of Boulder, Colo., and Abraham G. Nelson, ot New market. N. J., will remain here for some time.

OAKLAND. Cal., Aug. 27. (Special.) Dr. George C. Pardee, of this city, who was today nominated for Governor of California by the State Republican Conven tion, was bora la San Francisco, July 25, 1807. His father was the late Dr. E. Hj Pardee, the noted oculist. Graduating from tho University ot California, the subject of this sketch attended Cooper Medical College and later the University of Lelpslc In four years he was graduated from that seat of learning and re turned to Oakland, where he has won for himself a first place, among the men of the city. The first public office held by Dr. Pardee, was that of Member of the Board of Health. In this position he did much for the h-alth of the city, and so in creased his popularity that at the next election he was chesen to represent the Seventh Ward in the City. Council. With only one other member of the Council to help him. Dr. Pardee began a vigorous fight-axalcst the corrupt rlne that con trolled the Council. He exposed the Jobs of machine politicians, uncovered mu nicipal corruption, and finally, by hla rrarlesa and energetic, methods, compelled his fellow members to assume, at least, a semblance of decency in their adminis tration of the city's affairs. Then came the agitation for municipal reform, and Pardee was chosen as the logical candidate to lead the reform forces. After an excltlns campaign he was elected to the Mayoralty, and durinjr his four years in office he -rave Oakland one of the best administrations it has ever had. He secured a reduction of water rates, corrected abuses of many sorts end tore up erlla by tho roots. Since his term as Mayor expired Dr. Pardee has held but one public office, that of Regent of the State University. In 180S he became a candidate for Governor, but after failing to elect his chairman at the state convention withdrew in favor of Henry T. Gage, who tailed of a rcnomlnatloa today. There Self-Heip and Individ ual Effort Come Into Play. PRESIDENT TALKS TO FARMERS Meets His Old Friend, Bill Sevell, Down in Angosta Leaves Maine for Xnshna, X. II., Where Uo Speaks Today. ELLSWORTH. Me., Aug. 27. The Pre ident's second day In the Pine Tree State was full of interest. Starting from the Governor's residence at an early hour, he was taken for a short drive about the City of Augusta tfnd at 9:S0 left for Ban gor, where the principal -speech of the day was delivered at the fair grounds In the presence of an Immense audience, which listened with marked attention to his- address. The same clews attention was given him at Watervllle. where from far and near came hundreds to see and hear the first President who has visited Maine In many years. In anticipation of his coming, a general holiday was declared and all business was suspended. Just before leaving Augusta, the Presi dent heard that his old guide, Bill Sewell, of Island Falls, Me., who had accompa nied him on many hunting expeditions, and who had for a time been employed on his ranch In Dakota, was at Bangor. Ho Immediately wired Congressman Powers at Bangor to "corral" him, and hold onto him until he reached that city. That the Congressman carried out his Instructions was fully proved when he produced the tall, raw-boned, red-whiskered hunter up on the President's arrival. "I am -glad to aee you. Bill." said the President, whereupon Bill replied: "You ain't no gladder than I be." Then It was that the President told of the friendship of many years with the old guide and hunter, and how, many years ago, while on a hunting trip through Maine, owing to the shortage in the meat supply, they had eaten muskrat together, which, the President said, was the last meal he had eaten In Maine before tWa trip. The President seemed to delight In the rural simplicity of the man. and In sisted that he should sit down to dinner with him. Bill, therefore, had the distinc tion that comes to but few, of dining with the Chief Executive of the Nation and the Governor of his state, at the same time. Willie at the fair grounds some one sug gested to Sewell, who was seated on the platform with the President, that he should go to Washington and secure the appointment as postmaster, but Bill had already received this honor, and said Jn reply: "I be postmaster already." , On the drive through Bangor the Presl dent'a carriage was stopped In front of the portico of the Orphans' Asylum, where the little oneo were assembled, and they greeted him In song. Speech at Bangor. Before "beginning to speak at the fair grqunds at Bangor, the President, notic ing the jamming and pushing of the crowd In front of the grandstand, cautioned the people to be careful of the women and children, and asked them to show their capacity to manage themselves, which had the desired effect. The platform from which the President spoke was directly In front of the grandstand, which was packed with humanity. Behind him was another dense crowd. He Informed his audiences that he did not think he faced both ways, but on that occasion he would have to. The President said In part: "I am glad to se the farmers of Maine During the century that has passed the growth of Industrialism has necessarily meant that cities and towns have in creased in population more rapidly than the country districts. And yet It re mains now. as it has always been, that In the last resort the country districts are those In which we arc surest to find the old American spirit. The old American habits of thought and ways of living. Almost all of our great Presidents hayo been brought up In the country, and most of them worked hard on the farms In their youth and got their early mental training In the health democracy of farm life. The forces which made theso farm boys leaders of men when they had come to their full manhood are still at work In our country districts. Self-help and Individual Initiative remain to a pe culiar degree typical of life In the coun try, life on a farm, in a lumbering camp, on a ranch. Neither the farmers cor their hired hands can work through com binations as readily as capitalists or waKCWorkers of cities can work. "It must not be understood from this that there has been no change In farm ing and farm life. The contrary 13 tho case. There has been much change, much'progrefs. The granges and similar organizations, the farmers' institute? and alliances which promote intelligent co operation and give opportunity for .social and mental intellectual Intercourse among the farmers have played a large part in raising the level of life and work in the country districts. In the domain of gov ernment. the Department of Agriculture, since Its foundation, has accomplished results as striking as thcra obtained under any other branch of the National Administration. "We live In an area when the best re sults can only be achieved if to Individ ual self-help we add the mutual self, help which come3 by combination, both of -citizens In their Individual capacity and of citizens working through the State as an Instrument. But after all this has been done It remains true that the countryman, the man on the farm more than any other of our citizens, to day is called upon continually to ex ercise the qualities which we like to think of as typical of the United States throughout its history, the qualities of rugged Independence, masterful "resolu tion and Individual enersy and resource. He works hard (tor which no man Is to be pitied) and often he lives hard (which may not be pleasant), but his life Is spent in healthy surroundings surroundings, which tend to develop- a fine type of citi zenship. In the country, moreover, tho conditions are fortunately such as to al low a closer touch between man and man than too often we find to be tho case In the city. Men feel more vividly the underlying sense ot brotherhood, of com munity of Interest. I do not mean by this that there are not plenty of prob lems connected with lives on the tarns and our rural districts. There are many problems and great wisdom and earnest disinterested effort are needed for their solution. The problem of how to do these duties Is acute everywhere. It Is most acute in great cities, but it exists la the cpuntry, too. "A man, to be a good citizen, must first be a good breadwinner, a good hus band, a good father I hope the father of many healthy children just as a wom an's first duty Is to be a good housewife (Concluded on Third Page.)
