ANOTHER BOISTEROUS SESSION: 2 os E. G. Waite Defeated For Secretary of State—Charles E. Uren Gets Left Also. Last evening the following dispatch was received by the Transcript, but being too late for the regular issue was sent out as an extra:Sacramento, June 22st.—Radcliffe of Mesced was nominated for State Treasurer. Fitzgerald of San Francisco was nominatfor ed Attorney-General. Wright of Tulare received the nomination for Surveyor-General. For State Printer—A. J. Johnston of Sacmento. For Superintendent of Public Instruction —Samuel T, Black-of-Ventura,——— : Clerk Supreme Court—T. H: Ward of Los Angeles. L. H. Brown of San Francisco, present Clerk of the Supreme Court, was nominated for Secretary ef State by acclamation. It was thought that a fight would be made by E. G. Waite, but his name was not mentioned. The contest for Surveyor-General was very exciting and close for awhile, but to~ wards the close some of the delegations changed their vote from Ayer to Wright, and when the vote was completed it stood : Wright 558, Uren 362, Ayer 26. During the balloting for Clerk of the Supreme Court a scene of mad confusion occurred that was even more noisy than .that which resulted when General Hart assailed the backers of Estee on Wednesday. The candidates were Louis Jacobs of San Francisco, T. H. Ward of Los Angeles, and George W. Root of San Benito. : Roll call gave Jacobs about 300 on Then changes began, from the weakest to the. strongest. Delegates changed their votes from Root to Jacobs, until the necessary 425 and over were counted for the San Francisco man. Many delegates, changed from Root to Ward. Jobn P, Jackson was in. the.chair, and during the wrangle that ensued declared Jacobs to be the choice. “There was great confusion, many of the delegates being uncertain as to the result of the vote. Amidst the uproar the temporary Chaisman shouted and rapped for order, but this only served to increase the tumult, Chairman Knight resumed his position and finally succeeded in getting”the noisy ones quieted, He stated that it.was too late, as the vote had been announced. Pandemonium broke loose again. There were shouts of ‘‘No! No.’ The chair announced the vote once more: Jacobs 444, Ward 271, Root 132. The Los Angeles delegation satiad: 4 for recognition, but the Chairman responded that’ it was too late. Intense excitement followed, delegates waving their hats and shouting as though mad. Gasper of Los Angeles, as soon as order was restored, appealed from the decision of the Chair, but Knight refused to pay any attention to the appeal, and this action on his part caused another noisy outburst. Part of the Los Angeles delegation left the convention, however, AY . . Jacobs, asked for another roll call, Asa result Ward received 430 votes and Jacobs “a After nominating candidates for Superintendent. of Public Instruction, and State Printer, the convention, at 6:14 P. m., adjourned sine die, : DIsSTRICOr NOMINATIONS.

The ticket put up by the Republican State Convention, while evidently not satis— factory in many respects to the MRR. of this section, willno doubt be ‘generdlly supported wher election day rolls round. The sentiment in this city at the presen time is Unfavorable to’ the head of the ticket. The defeat of B, G, Waite for Seuretary has made one of the most efficient officials the State has ever had, and the convention, instead of recognizing this fact and nominating him'for re-election, have virtually repudiated him. The defeat of Mr. Waite and of Judge De Haven, who was a candiJ. EK. Isaac, salary as parrateey of Firey . of State was very unpleasant news to Mr. . . Waite’s many old-time friends here.

Locke, better known as “Cap” Locke, the well-known cattle driver, died at Lumpkin Mill, Plumas county, last week. Deceased made Nevada City his headquarters for a long time some years ago, being employed as driver for the late Charley Kent and also for other butchers in Nevada City and Grass Valley. The Marysville Appael of yesterday has following notice of his death: He died ‘on the 14th of this month at the sheep ranch of E. M. Davies in Plumas county. His death is described as having been rather sudden. There was only another man in the camp at the time, and he complained before going to bed of being ill, and his companion found him dead next morning. He was buried in Mooretown, Butte county, by some of his old friends. “Cap” Locke wasa native of North Carolina, and was about 71 years of age. He was a great joker, and was ene of the most jovial of men. When he first landed n Sacramento he ‘had two darkies with him,’ and they made their escape and were soon after captured. He started in to give one of them a good beating and-had a close all . frem being lynched: ’ He was known to nearly all the cattle and sheep men in the State, and was considered a good man in charge of stock. He was one of thé old landmarks of the northern section-of the State, and was: also well knows . in Oregon, Seda A Grand . Production. Mr, Jay Rial’s Uaste Tom’s Cabin Company will appear at the Nevada Theatre Saturday evening next. ‘This a@nnouncement promises an evening of rare enjoyment, for no manager in the theatrical world enjoys a greater reputation than Mr, Rial.
He has after many years of care and diligence won the confidence of the amusement going public. The Philadelphia Sunday “At the Academy of Music the Jay Rial -eombination presented their new version of the famous moral drama of ‘Uncle Tom’s Cabin.” This company forms the strongest that has ever presented this home pictare of life among the lowly. An unusal feature of the performance was the pursuit of -Eliza with-her child-on thg ice of the ‘Ohio river, ‘in which is introdrced a pack of bloodhounds. The realistic effect of this new departure is remarkable, and the scene becomes the most truthful and sesational ever presented on the public stage. As Hliza appears and starts on her perilous flight through a sea of ice, every one. becomes anxious, and the appearance of the brutes, with their jaws gaping to destroy the fugitive, bring forth a cry, so life-like is the scene,” pare ee Peete Hau.’s Hair-Renewer~renders~ the hair lustrous and silken, gives it an even color; and enables woman to put it up in a great verialy Vi satyles, AIR OER ihe e's hi Strickes: With Paralysis.

Death of Alexander Scroggs, Sr., Resident Since ’49. Sacramento Record-Union:: The death is announced of Alexander Scroggs, Sr., at his home. in this’ city yesterday. Mr. Seroggs was born in Trumbull county, Ohie, April 22d, 1818.; In the spring of 1840 he emigrated to Quincy, Il. From there he went. to Fairfield, a small town in the same State, and afterward removed to Cedar Creek, Monmouth county. . From there he went to Whiteside county, where he engaged i in various occupations until the spring of 1849. He then started for California across the plains, and arrived in the gold-mining regions in the vicinity of Grass Valley and Nevada City. From there he came to: this city and afterwards left for San Francisco, remaining there but a short time. He then returned to this city. He was married in 1854, and leaves two sons and 4wo daughters, also eight grandchildren, = Mr. Scroggs’ wife died about a year ago. At the time of his death deceased was in his seventy-sixth year He left an estate valued at about $50,000. The Cause of It.— ‘The way the Hon. BE. G. Waite has been turned down by the political bosses which dictated the actions of the Republican convention is very unsatisfactory to that honest old gentleman’s friends and admirers in “Nevada county. That he has been a most efficient officer and ‘has saved the State thousands of dollars his political enemies The latter feature is the cause of Hon. BE. G. Waite’s defeat. He would not tolerate the jobs put up by the professional politicians, and having the power he defeated many schemes concocted. Honeaty was not the criterion by which Dan Burns judged in. selevting the State ticket which he wanted.—QGrass Valley Union. : Headquarters f for Potatoes.

GOWELL, Prep, K. Casprr, Seo’y, a. The Republican Convention Recogcont for each letter. A MINING PLANK. nizes Our Interests. Following i is the full text of the mining plank in the platform adopted by the Republican State Convention: The mines of California with their annual output of many millions of dollars, have been our financial bulwark in times of adversity, they maintained the national credit during the dark days of the Rebellion and they form the basis upon which the grandest of commonwealths, California, has been rearde. The mining industry of our State should receive such aid and protection as will insure its permanence and prosperity, and for that purpose we favor such State and national legislation as will relieve the miner from unnecessary burdens, enable him to’ obtain and develop his mining property, and will promote and encourage the business—of all kinds of mining, including that known as ‘hydraulic mining,’ whenever and wherever the same can be carried on withéut injury to the other interests in the State.
