CALIFORNIA TO
CHOOSE TICKET
AT PRIMARY
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 30 (by As
sociated Press).—California voters
will go to the polls to cast their bal
lot for candidates seeking party nom
inations for various offices at the
state primary election. Of the several
issues confronting the voters, the
principal interest lies in the contest
among three candidates for the Re
publican nomination for United States
senator. The winner of this triangu
lar race will be opposed at the Nov
ember general election by United
States Senator James D. Phelan, who
is running unopposed on the party
ballot for the Democratic nomination.
The three candidates for the Re
publican senatorial nomination are
William Kent, of Kentfield, Marin
county, former representative in con
gress from the First district; Sam
uel M. Shortridge, a San Francisco
attorney, and Albert J. Wallace, of
Dos Angeles, lieutenant governor of
California in the first administration
of Governor Hiram W". Johnson. From
among these three candidates, the
voter will register his choice and the
successful nominee will fight it out
with Senator Phelan on November 2.
In four of the state’s eleven con
gressional districts there are no con
tests for party nominations. These
districts are the Third, Fourth,
Fifth and Eleventh, and they have but
one candidate each on the party bal
lots. Consequently the candidate is
assured of his own party nomination.
The situation differs in the remain
ing districts in that the voter will
find that he has a choice of two or
more candidates on his party ballot, j
The supreme and appellate court |
candidates are voted on nonpartisan \
ballots, the judiciary having been re-\
moved from political consideration by I
legislative enactment a number of |
years ago. The supreme court ticket
will list the names of Warren OIney,
Jr., of Berkeley, incumbent, who is
unopposed for the associate justice
ship made vacant by the resignation
of Justice M. C. Sloss, and of Justice
W. A. Sloane, of San Diego, and Judge
John M. York of the superior court
of Los Angeles county, the latter two
being contestants for the unexpired
term of the late Justice Henry A.
Melvin. This vacancy was filled re
cently by the ad interim appointment
of Justice Sloane by Governor W. D.
Stephens. Justice Sloane was a mem
ber of the Second district court of
appeals. Division No. 2.
Candidates are numerous for the
upper and lower houses of the legis
lature and contests for party nomina
tions prevail in nearly all the senate
and assembly districts. The complex
ion of the legislature is changed
every two years by the election of
eighty assemblymen, which is full
strength of the lower house and by
the election of twenty senators, or
half the number of the upper house.
This year the twenty senators will
be chosen from the odd-numbered dis
tricts. Thus the legislature always
holds over in the biennial sessions
half its personnel in the upper house.
The party conventions held at Sac
ramento on the third Tuesday in Sep
tember after the primary election are
provided for in the direct primary law
for the purpose of adopting platforms
for the November campaigns, elect
ing members of the various state
central committees and, in presi
dential election years, of nominating
presidential electors.
The membership of the party con
1— ■
ventions are composed of candidates
nomimated in the August primary
election for congressional and state
offices and by delegates elected from
the holdover senatorial districts.
Nominees for judicial and school of
fices are not elegible to participate
in the convention proceedings as
these offices are nonpartisan.
In the event that a candidate for a
congressional or state office receives
the nomination of more than one
party, the primary law provides that
he shall attend the convention only
as a member of the party of which he
is a registered voter. Thus, a Demo
crat winning his own party nomina
tion and a nomination on the Re
publican ticket would have a voice
and vote only in the Democratic con
vention.
The party conventions usually con
clude their business without delay.
The primary law requires that the
platforms shall be made public not
later than 6 o’clock in the afternoon
of the day following the convention.
GREAT NAZIMOVA AS
GYPSY PRINCESS AT
EMPRESS TONIGHT
“Toys of Fate!” What are any of us
except toys of fate? But, as Brown
ing says:
“Sometimes the worst turns the
best to the brave,
“The black moment’s at an end.
Well, that is the way it is with
Azah, the fascinating gypsy princess
in “Toys of Fate,” in which the great
Russian artiste, Nazimova, stars.
When there seems no way out,—
when misery has taken possesion of
her soul,—then comfort with its
healing power, revives and love glad
dens her.
“Toys of Fate” is vivid, vital, dram
atic. The story of a a child of na
ture brought into contact with civili
zation. Azan suiters, rejoices, ana m
the end finds happiness and heart’s
desire. The great star is at her best
in this tale of destiny.
“Toys of fate” forms tonight’s pro
gram at the Empress. A late Pathe
news will be shown first.
It is not so easy to express one's
sentiments, express rates having ad
vanced that way.
