Among the important resolutions introduced by Mr. Warden was one asking Congress to authorize the South- ern Pacific Railroad Company to change its route from Tres Pinos to Huron, to the route from Soledad through the Salinas Valley to a point near San Miguel in San Luis Obispo County, thence through the Palonia Pass to Lerdo, in Kern County, without incurring any forfeiture of its land grant in consequence of such change.


The intention of this resolution was to hasten the con- struction of the railroad by a feasible route through a portion of this county, but this good intent has not yet accomplished the desired object.


HON. LEW M. WARDEN.


Wherever one travels through the broad extent of Cal- ifornia are found the grand estates, the public improve- ments and works of the early pioneers, the most convinc- ing proofs of the remarkable energy, the great enter- prise, the unflinching courage, the high intelligence and worthy character of the men who have built up the em- pire State of the Pacific Coast. One of these is met in the person of Hon. Lew Moore Warden, who recently represented San Luis Obispo County in the Legislature of California. This gentleman was born in Granville, Licking County, Ohio, May 22, 1825, his parents being Gabriel and Mary (Seeley) Warden; 'the father a native of


Burlington, Vermont, and the mother of Massachusetts. His grandfather was an honored soldier of the Revolu- tionary War, serving as Captain during the struggle for our national independence. The family circle embraced twelve children, nine of whom were sons, and two of whom became California pioneers, the subject of this sketch, and H. M. Warden, whose biography also appears in this book. These two young men inheriting the stal- wart physique, enterprise, and energy of their family, were of that class to lead into new countries, and act their part in the creation of new States. In 1848, Lew M. Warden, in company with an elder and a younger brother, the latter being H. M. Warden, went to Illinois, and engaged in the cattle trade, in supplying the Chicago market. In 1850, he and his younger brother came to California, across the plains and by Salt Lake City, where they stopped one week, arriving in the mines on Hang- town Creek on the 6th of July of that year. Until 1856 the two brothers acted in concert, engaged in mining, and staging in Sacramento, Yuba, and Placer Counties, carrying on their business with skill and judgment. Their various operations are more particularly detailed in the sketch of H. M. Warden.


After disposing of his stage property in Placer County, Mr. Warden sought the coast region, settling in Men- docino County, early in 1857, where he engaged in farm- ing, and in the fall of that year was elected Sheriff of the county. There he displayed his usual business abil- ity, making his farm a success, and, at the same time, at- tending to his duties as Sheriff. So satisfactorily did he conduct the shrievalty that he was often re-elected, hold- ing the office continually for a period of ten years, until he decided to remove to San Luis Obispo County. To this county he came in 1867, purchasing a farm of 1,800 acres, a part of the Los Osos Rancho, and upon this he still resides, engaged in farming and stock-raising, and performing those public duties incident to the life of a prominent and popular citizen.


Since residing in this county he has held various posi- tions of trust. For two years he was Supervisor of the county, in which service he gave satisfaction and gained the respect of all. In 1877 he was elected to the State Legislature on the Democratic ticket, with which party he acts politically. As a Legislator he was distinguished for his industrious and honorable course in his efforts to pro- cure useful and economical legislation. He was a mem- ber of the Committee on Agriculture, Mining, and Mechanic Art. College, and on Counties and County Boundaries. To the various duties he assiduously devoted his time and abilities, retiring from the office with a most honorable record.


Mr. Warden was married February 18, 1856, to Miss Helen M. Franklin, a native of St. Charles, Illinois. They have four children, two sons and two daughters, loved by their parents, and admired and respected by the community. The mother of Mrs. Warden, Mrs. Lydia Franklin, born in 1807, now nearly an octogenarian in age, resides in the family.


The home of Mr. Warden is on the Los Osos Rancho eight miles from the town of San Luis Obispo, where

stand the old adobe buildings-see illustration-which were the residence of Capt. John Wilson, the former pro- prietor of the great rancho. This rancho, which was en- titled the "Rancho Cañada de los Osos y Pecho y Islay," was granted by the Mexican Government to Victor Lin- ares, Francisco Badillo, James Scott, and John Wilson, and confirmed by the United States Courts to John Wil- son, comprising an area of 32,430.76 acres of land. Cap- tain Wilson was the stepfather of ex-Governor and Con- gressman Romualdo Pacheco, who grew to manhood on the estate. The venerable rancho has witnessed many changes in its history, passing from the quiet of the old mission era, through the period of revolution, the changes of dominion, the exciting times of the gold discovery, and the coming of the crowding, ambitious Americans, until it has entered the era of steady progression under the rule of enlightenment and improvement. As a cattle rancho it was always prominent, but where in former years it was distinguished for its numbers, it is now distinguished for the quality of the bovine and equine species that are bred upon it. In his stock Mr. Warden takes special pride. Thoroughbred horses and short-horned Durhams of the purest and finest blood are raised. Of the latter he has imported from the celebrated herds of Robert Ashburner, giving him the prestige of connection with that famous breeder.


WORKINGMEN'S PARTY.


During the campaign a serious riot occurred at Pitts- burg, Pennsylvania, caused by a strike among railroad employés, followed by other strikes throughout the coun- try, causing great excitement among the dissatisfied and turbulent elements of the large cities of California, result- ing in the organization of the "Workingmen's Party." This, at a later date, exerted considerable political in- fluence on the elections and policy of the State.


CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.


The State having voted to call a Constitutional Con- vention, by a majority of 7,000, an Act was passed pro- viding for the election of 152 members to meet at the Capitol on the 28th of September. The election for these delegates was ordered to be held on the third Wednesday of June, 1878. The representation was one for each Senator and Assemblyman, and eight at large in each of the four Congressional Districts, making thirty- two at large. The Constitution prepared by this conven- tion was ordered to be submitted to the vote of the peo- ple, for approval or rejection, on the first Wednesday of May, 1879.


CAMPAIGN OF 1878.


The campaign of 1878 was for the election of delegates to the Constitutional Convention. The rise of the "Work- ingmen's Party," which had its origin in the riotous and communistic elements of San Francisco, chiefly foreigners, had caused a feeling of fear and uneasiness throughout the State, where it had spread, and the Republican and Democratic parties combined against it in their nomina- tions of delegates. The new party was strongest in the


cities, and there was most pronounced in its threatenings of revolution and desolation, and these outcries seriously affected the prosperity of the whole State. The alleged cause of the uprising was bad legislation, corruption in public places, the overpowering influence of monopolies in politics, the aggregation of wealth in individuals and corporations, and the distress of labor caused by the pres- ence of Chinese. These allegations, plausible, and, in a manner, true, drew many men of reason and patriotism to the support of the Workingmen, giving it respectability in the country, and temporary strength.


The new party being one of excitement, energetically entered the field to obtain control of the convention, which the Workingmen had been instrumental in calling, while other parties were comparatively inactive. The people of the State opposed to the Workingmen's Party, organized under the name of "Non-Partisan." In San Luis Obispo three parties made nominations; the Inde- pendents-or Non-Partisan -- Workingmen, and Demo- crats.


Hon. William J. Graves, of San Luis Obispo, was nomi- nated by the Non-Partisan Convention held at San José as a delegate at large, representing the Fourth Congress- ional District.


The election was held as ordered, resulting in the elec- tion in the State of a majority of Workingmen from the counties, which was overbalanced by the election of the thirty-two Non-Partisans at large, they being voted for throughout the State. The candidates in San Luis Obispo were George Steele, Independent, W. A. Henderson, Workingmen, and R. M. Preston, Democratic. The re- sult was the election of Judge Steele by a majority of 29 and the election of the Non-Partisan nominees in the State by an average majority of 85.


The vote in the county was small, several precincts not opening polls. The vote of the town of San Luis Obispo was 534, with a plurality of 10 for Steele.


The convention met September 28, 1878, at the capitol at Sacramento, and organized by the election of J. P. Hoge, of San Francisco, as President, and J. A. Johnson, of Santa Barbara, as Secretary. The pay of the dele- gates had been fixed at $10.00 per diem for a period of roo days, but the session continued for 157 days, in which the Constitution, as now existing, was prepared and submitted to the people.


CAMPAIGN OF 1879-CONSTITUTION ADOPTED.


The first Wednesday of May, 1879, was fixed by the Act calling the Constitutional Convention as the day when the people should vote for the adoption or rejection of the instrument prepared as the Constitution of the State. The new organic law was regarded as very obnox- ious by corporations and people of large wealth, and extraordinary efforts were made by such classes to pre- vent its adoption. The result of the election in the State was in favor of the adoption by about 9,000 majority. The vote in San Luis Obispo County was :-


For the new Constitution, 1,038; against, 660; total vote in the county, 1,698.

HISTORY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY.


POLITICAL CAMPAIGN.


With the close of the Constitutional campaign began the political campaign for the election of officers under the new instrument. The most ardent advocates assumed that the duty of giving the Constitution a fair trial devolved upon them, and thus organized a " New Con- stitution Party."


In San Luis Obispo the new party, the Republicans, and the Workingmen were enabled to agree upon a single ticket, in opposition to the Democrats, who also made a set of nominations for Governor and other State officers, State Senator, and Assemblymen, as the new Constitu- tion cut off the terms of all officers previously elected- four Congressmen, a Chief Justice, and six Associate Justices of the Supreme Court, three Railroad Commis- sioners, four members of the Board of Equalization, a Superior Judge, and other officers of the county.


THE ELECTION.


The election took place on September 3, 1879, result- ing in the success of the Republican State ticket by the following vote :-


For Governor-George C. Perkins (R), 67,695; Hugh J. Glenn (D and N C), 48,675; William F. White (Work- ingman), 44,484; scattering, 119. Total vote, 160,993.


In the Fourth Congressional District, R. Pacheco (R) was elected Congressman over two competitors. His vote amounted to 15,269. Wallace Leach received 12,610, and J. J. Ayers 10, 131. In the First District Horace Davis (R) was elected; in the Second, H. F. Page (R), and in the Third, C. P. Berry (D).


The vote for candidates in San Luis Obispo was offi- cially given as follows :-


The Workingmen's candidates for State offices received small majorities, ranging from 5 to 113. Pacheco's majority over Ayers was 93.


State Senator-Thomas Holloway (D), 419; Warren Chase (W and N C), 892; E. H. Heacock (R), 692. Mr. Chase became joint Senator for the three counties com- prising the Senatorial district.

Messrs. H. M. Warden, E. H. Osgood, J. C. McFer- son, and George W. Lingo were elected County Super- visors.


Throughout the State there was evinced a remarkable unanimity of sentiment opposed to Chinese immigration, the county giving 1,970 votes against and only 4 for it.


STATE OFFICERS.


State officers elected were Lieutenant-Governor, John Mansfield; Secretary of State, D. M. Burns; Controller, D. M. Kenfield; Treasurer, John Weil; Attorney-General, A. L. Hart; Surveyor-General, J. W. Shanklin; Clerk of Supreme Court, Frank W. Gross; Superintendent of Public Instruction, F. M. Campbell, Republicans; Chief Justice, R. F. Morrison (D); Associate Justices, E. W. Mckinstry (D), for eleven years; J. D. Thornton (D), eleven years; M. H. Myrick (R), seven years; S. B. McKee (D), seven years; E. M. Ross (D), three years, and J. R. Sharpstein (W), three years.


Railroad Commissioners-Geo. C. Stoneman (D), C. J. Beerstecher (W), J. S. Cone (R).


Board of Equalization-M. M. Drew (R), J. L. King (R), Warren Dutton (R), and T. D. Heiskell (R).


The Legislature under the new Constitution met the first Monday in January. The most important bill of the session was entitled " An Act to Promote Drainage," providing for restraining the flow of mining debris by building dams, and protecting land by constructing levees.


The partisan representation was in the Senate, 22 Republicans, 5 Democrats, 8 Workingmen, and 5 of Workingmen siding with either Democrats or Republi- cans; and in the Assembly 39 Republicans, 15 Democrats, II Workingmen, 3 New Constitution, 6 Workingmen and New Constitution, and 6 Workingmen and Republican. Several of the Workingmen elected to the Assembly from San Francisco constituted a very disorderly element, and that body was noted for its confusion and inability to proceed with business from that cause.


PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN OF 1880.


The new Constitution of California provided for the election of Members of the Assembly and county officers in 1880 and every two years thereafter. At this election the people were also required to cast their votes for President and Vice-President and Representatives in Congress. The Republican State Convention met at Sacramento, April 28th, and appointed delegates to the National Convention at Chicago, which met June 2, 1880. The principal candidates for the Presidential nomination were Gen. U. S. Grant, James G. Blaine, John Sherman, and James A. Garfield, of Ohio, the latter receiving the nomination, and Chester A. Arthur, of New York, for Vice-President.


The Democratic State Convention met at Oakland, June 19, composed of 357 delegates, of which number 72 were from San Francisco. Electors were nominated and delegates appointed to the National Convention, which met at Cincinnati, June 22d, and placed in nomina- tion Gen. Winfield Scott Hancock, of Pennsylvania, for

POLITICAL HISTORY CONTINUED.


President, and William H. English, of Indiana, for Vice- President.


A third party, styled the National Greenback Party, entered the field, and at a convention held in Chicago, June 2, 1880, nominated Gen. James B. Weaver, of Iowa, for President, and Col. Benjamin J. Chambers, of Texas, for Vice-President. These last nominations were indorsed by the Workingmen's Party of California.


The effects of the Workingmen's agitation in arousing opposition to Chinese immigration bore a heavy influence in this campaign in California. Both parties professed opposition, but the declaration that Garfield had written a letter in which expressions favorable to the employ- ment of the Chinese was used to the advantage of the Democracy.


THE ELECTION.


The election was held November 2, 1880, resulting in the election of James A. Garfield as President of the United States, he receiving 218 electoral votes, and W. S. Hancock 151. Of the electoral vote of California 5 were cast for Hancock and I for Garfield. One Dem- ocratic elector, David S. Terry, being defeated, and Henry Edgerton, Republican elector, receiving a higher vote, was chosen in his place. The total vote of this State was 163,970, the average Democratic majority being 64. Of these Hancock received 80,322; Garfield, 80,267; Weaver, 3,381.


The election returns of San Luis Obispo County show the names of candidates and the votes each received :-


Presidential electors-Garfield, 828; Hancock, 729; Weaver, 172.

· Assembly-Patrick W. Murphy (D), 767; George Steele (R), 713; A. R. Hathway (W), 251.

THE LEGISLATURE.


The Legislature met on the first Monday in January, 1881, and organized by the election of Wm. Johnston President pro tem. of the Senate, and Wm. H. Parks as Speaker of the Assembly. In January the Legisla- ture met in joint convention and elected John F. Miller, of San Francisco, United States Senator, to succeed Newton Booth, whose term was to expire March 3, 1881. Much of the time of the session was expended in attempt- ing to repeal the "Act to Provide Drainage," and to apportion the State in Legislative and Congressional Districts, but failed in both, and an extra session was called with similar results.


CAMPAIGN OF 1882.


The only remaining political campaign and election which remains to be chronicled is that of 1882. All


will remember the interest that attached to the important political changes which were then taking place. A great political party was to suffer many defeats and threatened extinction. State elections throughout the Union went most unexpectedly Democratic, and by astonishing ma- jorities. In California an abnormal state of affairs ex- isted which may account in some measure for the unprecedented political revolution whose power and extent manifested itself . upon election day. Public opinion owed its bent to the combined effects of several living issues. Of these the growing spirit of Anti-Monop- oly, manifesting itself mainly in opposition to railroad management, may be deemed the most powerful, over- shadowing as it did even the momentous question of Chinese Immigration. With the growth of local issues and the natural diminution in the strength of party ties, came the result of an election by which the people sought to remove the officials whose loyalty to popular principles was suspected, putting in their places a new set whose loyalty was problematical.


THE ELECTION.


The State election took place November, 1882. The result was the election of the Democratic State ticket, in full, with a single exception, W. C. Morehouse, a Re- publican, being elected as a member of the Board of Equalization. The total vote of the State was: Stone- man, 90,554; Estee, 67,034; McDonald, 5,479; Mc- Quiddy, 996; Scattering, 17. Total, 164,080. Stone- man's majority over Estee was 23,520, over all 16,728. To the above was to be added the vote of Modoc County, about 1,000.


The following are the figures for Senator throughout the district: Ventura County, Brooks, 565, Steele, 549; Santa Barbara County, Brooks, 1,077, Steele, 976; San Luis Obispo County, Brooks, 896, Steele, 1,079. Total, Brooks, 2,558; Steele, 2,604, a majority for Steele of 46. Childs, candidate of the Greenback Party for Senator, received 8 votes in San Luis Obispo and 179 in Santa Barbara.


Supervisors-The Board elected was composed of Messrs. E. W. Steele (R), R. M. Bean (R), J. C. Mc- Ferson (D), C. D. Fowler (R), and P. S. Finney (R), organizing with E. W. Steele as President of the Board.


The total vote of the county was 1,983. Upon the Great Register of the county of registered voters, since 1881, revised and printed in 1882, were 2,422 names, showing a light vote in comparison to the registry.


San Luis Obispo County gave majorities of from twenty to forty votes for the Democratic State ticket, excepting Stoneman, whose majority in the county over Estee was 141.


The following table shows the complete vote of every town and precinct in the county, and thus gives a con- cise and comprehensive view of the distribution of popu- lation, the names of the localities, and a ready compari- son with the votes of the previous years, by which the progressive development of the county may be noted. The advance is seen by the various returns from the vote of forty-five in 1849, steadily to increase to the present :-
