THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, MONDAY, JULY 13, 1896. “QUR FLAG SHALL - WAVE FOREVER” Rev. Ray Palmer Makes a Stirring Address at Metropolitan Hall. TWO IDEAS OF LIBERTY. The Speaker Contrasts the At- titudes of the Catholic and the Protestant Churches. WILL RALLY ROUND OLD GLORY Prediction That S ctional Differences Will Aiways Stop Short of D:serting the Flag. Ray Palmer, who has recently returned from Portland, where he hasbeen engaged as pastor of one of the Baptist churches, addressed the Good Oitizenship meeting yesterday afternoon. His subject was “Our Flag 8hall Wave Forever.” The speaker prefaced his remarks by a brief reference to his father, who had re- cently died, and who taught him among his first lessons to love the flag. “The old flag that we love,” be said, “‘to-day speaks to the Old World. Our forefathers said in times past, ‘We will climb the mountain repablic’” They accomplished the feat, and now, standing upon the summit of this beautiful mountain, that flag says to other nations of the world, ‘Follow on. Climb the mountain republic.’ Had the Son of God not proclaimed the golden rule on this earth that old flag never would have been created. That flag which floats above us to-day is a flag of expariences. It has stood the hail of shot and shell; it has been bathed in tbe tears of wives and sisters, and it has been baptized in the blood of fathers and sons. “I am glad to think to-day that the flag has thousands of friends in this country. All Protestant denominations are friends of that flag, yet I wouldn’t be willing to hand that flag over to the Baptists, of which denomination I am a member, be- cause I fear humah nature. I would not be wiliing to unite church and state with any denomination for fear they would trample liberty under foot,as has been done by Rome whenever it has obtained sway. 1 do not mean to say that all Catholics in this country are enemies of the flag. I believe there are a great many Catholics in this country almost ready to break away from the shackles which bind them. 1 have no feeling against the great mass of Catholics. There is a fundamental differ- ence between theattitude of the Protestant and of the Catholic’ on the subject of lib- erty of conscience. The Protestants say, ‘Let every man worship God according to his conscience.” The Catholics say, ‘ii.et every man worship God according to a right conscience.” That means worship God according to the Roman Catholic hierarchy. ““That flag is the flag of the whole land, and-all thespeopie of the land have that flag. Idon’t believe the time will ever come agamn when the North and the South or the East and the' West will di- vide cver that flag. Whatever divisions may come the people will always rally about the old flag and be one inits defense. That flag stands for the sovereignty of man. It teaches nations that in this country every man is king and every woman is queen. Itis bouna to protect the homes of tbis country. It stands for the little red ‘schoolhouse. It stands for religious liberty. Itis frequently thrown in our faces tnat we are bonded together to persecute Catholics on account of their religion. This is untrue. If I thought that this organization was banded to- gether to persecute anything I would leave this platform, never to speak of these things again. *This flag stands for equality to women as well as men. Let me say 1o yon that so long as half the citizens of this land are deprived of their right of representation this country never will haveagovernment of the peovle, by the people and for the people. Oh, flag of glory, wave on, for thou hast not fulfilled thy mission until woman hasattained ber independence and virtue shall have its full reward, “I know not what the A. P. A. as an or- ganization may think, but as sn indi- vidual I say that the fing should protect both gold and silver upon our shores. “Shall this old flag'that waves above ns ever divide its honor with others? Shall it float by the side of the green flag of the Emerald Isle, or with the flag of France orof Ituly? Nol Being the flag ot liberty it is incompatible with any ensign thrown to the breeze by tyranny. Or shall it ever float side by side with the flag of ecclesias- tical power? Shall it ever be said at one breatn, ‘Hail to the flag of America and hail to the papal rag’? Never while the biood of patriots flows in tbe veinsof American citizens. The American people as they look upon that flag will say with Napoleon’s drummer boy, ‘I cannot play & retreat, I never learned how.” I want every man here to-day to pledge his loy- alty to the dear old flag.” The speaker then cailed upon every one who loved the flag to rise and repeat after him a pledge of fealty to it and the coun- try. All present complied amid cheers and agplause. Chairman Quitzow announced that it was a little premature yet to announce what political action the order would take. “We will be guided by intelligence, and will take the course that will redound to thgd good of the greatest number,” he said. Rev. Ray Palmer will occupy the plate form for the next two Sunday afternoons. THLORS 70 ORGANIZE Enthusiastic Mass-Meeting Held Yesterday to Discuss Ways and Means. Shorter Hours and Increased Pay Is the Battle Cry of the Unorgan- ized. : A mass-meeting of the garment-workers of San Francisco was held at 927 Mission street yesterday afternoon for the purpose of perfecting an organization with a view of increasing the wages and lessening the nours of work. While the number pres- ent was somewhat disappointing the en- thusiasm was all that could be desired. The meeting opened by selecting H. L. Knox chairman and W. Feeney secretary. Chairman Knox briefly outlined what it was hoped would be accomplished. *“‘The garment-makers need to come together," he said, *‘or our condition will grow worse with each succeeding yeer. It is only | through organized labor that our rights can be preserved.” Half a dozen speakers followed, the burden of their remarks being zlone the lines laid down by the chairman. H. L. Parsons said: “The price of your labor is being gradually cut down. The only remed7 in the world is organization. If the tailors are dissatisfied you must come together and find out the trouble. If you had rather go off picnicking, then the dissatisfaction is not very pressing. But if you are willing to come together it shows there 1s something the matter, It is a rocky road we have to travel. There are no carriages and the path is not strewn with flowers. Discuss the matter among you. Is he or she willing to see wages cut and hours lengthened? Think of 1t; talk about it, and if dissatisfied with your condition organize. Adopt a price list, so that Tom will not cut Dick and Dick will not cut Tom.” i Mr. Hawks—The history of nations shows organization. You need it—all laborers need 1t. There should be an eleventh commandment reading, *Thou shalt not take thy neighbor’s job.” Henry Stribach—Tailoring 18 not fit to work at now because it is underpaid. The only way to overcome this is to organize skilled labor. ‘We do not want any bosses. Even the Chinese in this City will not work for the wages paid the white men. McArthur — The attendance is large enough to authorize garment-workers to go ahead with a good heart. The history of all unions is small beginnings and large achievements. So there may be no fear on the part of the garment-workers on account of the small attendance. We are here to organize a union—1o improve our condition. Before we can do this we must settle definitely in our minds what are our conditions. 1 venture you are not* satistied, You want shorter hours and greater pay. To accomplish t}:na you' must organize a garmeni-workers’ unfon. At the conclusion of the speech-making it was the sense of the meeting that an- other call be issued before any active steps were taken in the direction of organiza- tion. Itis probable, therefore, that an- other meeting will be held next Sunday, when it is thought a permanent organiza- tion will be perfected. RELIGEN ARD POLITIS Dr. Williams Pays His Respects to the Recent National Conventions. Bolting Politicians Are Given a Hard Rap in a Quict, Digni- fied Way. “An Iilustrious Beginning of a Great Campaign” was the subject of Rev. Dr. Williams’ discourse at Plymouth Church last night. Amonz other things he said: “America is full of men who donot | know what to do with a dollar except to | use it to get another dollar. They haveno | conception that wealth is a trust. This Staie is by no means the only State that | has increased in wealth. Atleast six other States have surpassed us in amassing | riches. In twenty-five years the wealth | of the Nation has increased from fourteen | thousand millions to forty-four thousand “ millions. “Drawing a line from the Atlantic to the Pacific, or rather from Jamestown to San Diego, the increase has been mostly north of that line. Intersecting that line by another from north to south, through Omaha, and the increase has been east of that line, with the exception of California. This affords, in part, an interpretation of the significant scenes and events of the past week. When improved machinery | < displaces 10 per cent of the workingmen it enriches those who employ them, and creates matural friction in industrial cir- cles. Wealthy citizens ought not fo aban- | don the ship of state to crew and passen- | gers when she enters the rapids. *When the regiment is in peril no brave commander should leave the field. Many of our disasters are the result of scheming, but when the schemer is found out he is like a dog in church whom evervbody I kicks. When the hypocrite in political convention is discovered, he is like a barrel of powder whom nobody wants for & neighbor. “Nationality and religion are insepar- able. If the Jew was God’s own making, and it required centuries of divine lubor for the task, iben this Nation, from | Plymouth Rock to Golden Gate, from Vir- gin'a to Alaska, is the result of the same divine hand. “Every nation that earth has seen has had its keynote. That of Rome was civic ower; of Greece, culture; of India, re- igion; of America—some would say gold. But how came the gold in the kills of Cal- iiornia, and the coal measures in Pennsyl- vania, and the forests in Michigan and Wisconsin? God created all these things and laid them up for all the people, and has solemnly inscribed over all, ‘The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof.’ “The whole civilized world divides soci- ety into three horizontal sections—upper, middle, lower. God divides the worid by a vertical line—upon tuhis side the right, apon that the wrong. “By reason of dividing this people by horizontal sections we are now entering upon what is at once’a most iliustrious and solemnly serious campaign. We are all brothers—Cains or Avels—advancing the welfare of others or destroying their hopes. Lazarus t.e yulgar may become the Laza- rus of despair through the inhumanity of man to his fellow. uman life is short; God’s work is complex and continuous. We should show the design of his will in the voice of the people.” PARALYZED WITH DRINK Disgraceful Sight Witnessed on Fourth Street Yesterday Afternoon. =20 hin Willie Boyle, Twelve Years of Age, Was Stupidly Drunk and Was Taken to the Hospital. A disgrazetul sight was witnessed on Fourth street, near Brannan, between 4 and 5 o’clock, yesterday afternoon. Two boys were leading another boy home who was stupidly drunk. Police- man Mitchell saw the trio, and thought at first they were playing ‘‘policeman.” He watched them and saw {hat the boy in the center had a pecuharly vacant look in his face, He walked toward them, and the two boys released their hold of the other and ran. ‘As soon as they released their hold the boy dropped to the sidew: Mitchell recognized the boy as Willie Boyle, 12 years of age, whose parents live on Welsh street, between Fourth and Fifth. He tried to rouse bim, but failed. He then smelled his breath, and there was an unmistakable odor of liguor. Mitchell decided not to take any chances and rang for the patrol wagon and accom- vanied the boy to the Receiving Hospital. Dr. Thompson confirmed Mitchell’s sus- picions and the usnal remedies were ad- ministered. The drunken boy remained unconscious and was in flelfi sense of the u *‘dead to the world.” e was put to bxl‘nd when he regains consciousness the police will endeavor to find from him :her: he got the liquor that made him so rank.

BECEER AND CREGAN. Captain Lees in Recoipt of Many Con- gratulations Upon Their Con- vietion. The conviction of Becker and Cregan for the forgery last December on the Nevada Bank has given great satisfaction to the heads of the Police Department, and Cap- tain Lees, who, with the able assistance of Detective Seymour, worked up the case, has been in receipt of many congratuia- tions. Captain Lees Safurday night received a dispatch from William A, Pmkerton of Chicago as follows: “A great vic- tory has been achieved in the conviction of the most dangerous gmr of professional criminals in this world. Accept my con- gratulations.” He also_received the fol- lowing dispatch from Robert A. Pinker- ton, Sheepshead Bay: *‘Accebt my sin- cere congratulations on the conviction of the greatest forger of the age. The banks of the world owe you and the Police De- partment and Prosecuting Attorney a debt they can never pay. It's a great victory.” Y};surdly the captain received the fol- lowing dispatch from Joseph C. Hendrix, chairman of the Executive Council of the American Bankers' Association, New York: “In behalf of the bankersof the United States I bez most heartily to con- gratulate you upon the conviction of the most notorious forgers of the United States.” .

But time has worked wonderful changes not only in conformation of the country, but also in its people. Until the last ten years this locality was known as *‘Cow Hollow,” and two or three polling precincts were suficient to accom- modate the few Democratic residents who resided down there, While this territory was partly in the Twelith Ward no candidate ever thought it worth his while to risk his neck and a few dollars in search of votes. Now, however, the place is peopled with steady, conservative voters, a large per- centage of whom are young men. It is of these young men that the Forty-first Dis- trict Republican Club is composed. The principal leader, however, of this section is that oid Republican. E. J. Wilk- inson, whose political education was ac- quired in Pennsylvania. This leader of young men was one of the first substantial residents who settled on the shoreline of “Distillery”’ Valley and sowed the seed of Republicanism on the sandhills of that bleak spot. To him the youthful men looked, and when they arrived at men's age it was no difficult matter to assist them in_ the orgunization of well conducted Republican clubs, such as the one now in full cam- %aign working order at Tilton’s Hall, on nion street. This club is known as the Young Men’s Republican Club of the Forty-first Assem- bly District. The elub will have a uniform corps for varade purposes, and as an incentive to all young men in the district to affiliate with the oreanization. It has a membership of 300, with a prospect of twice this number before tne first of next month. At the last meeting held it was unanimously agreed that tne founder of the club and the lead- ing spirit of the district, E. J. Wilkinson, should be selected as the additional County Committeeman from the district. The following are the names of the offi- cers of the club: Joseph W.Woods, presi dent; Edward W. Stansbury, vice-presi- dent; Charles W. Wilkinson, secretary; E. J. Wilkinson, treasurer; Thomas W. Roletle, sergeant-at-arms; executive com- mitiee—Robert L. Clark (chairman), Charles Burdette, PeterV. 8medes, Thomas W. Rolette, Edward W. Stansbury, H. Gerlach, William R. Nixon. BOWEN'S CHANCES GOOD. He May Be the Next Pastor of the First Swedenborgian Church. The First Bwedenborgian Church on O’Farrell street is still without a pastor, this office having been vacant since the resignation of the Rev. Mr. Higgins some two months ago. The congregation listen to a different clergyman almost every Sunday, but is not in any hurry to make a final and per- manent choice of a spiritual leader. The Rev. D. V. Bowen of Ontario, Canada, but more recently of Southern California, preached in the pulpit yester- day and made an exceedingly favorable impression. He will preach thers also the Supreme Court will be given by their attorney. CONTAGIOUS DISEASES, How to Prevent Their Spread Among Public School Children. Dr. C. A Clinton's Valuable Sanitary Suggestions—Cenumptive Cases, Elc. There is no other topic just now which is engaging such close attention upon the part of the authorities as the sannary con- dition of our public schools. The Board of Health and the Boaid of Education are earnestly co-operating for the preserva- tion of the heaith of tne pupils and teachers, and the improvement ot the schoolhouses. A change was recently made by the Board of Education in the rule concern- ing contagious diseases. 1t <vas generally misunderstood by both parents and teachers, and will be revised at the next session of the directors. “The drinking-cups and towels, so pro- miscuously used in our crowded primary and grammar schools,” said Dr. C. A, Clinton, ‘‘are the main causecf the spread of contagious diseases in the department. Ishall mgf;est that as a remedial measure each pnFi be required to bring with him to school his own drinking-cup, also that the use of towels, by every ¥, in yards and classrooms be prohibited. “CornnumElion is a contagious disease and it is the natural duty of physicians and School Directors te take every possi. ble precaution against its introduction and spread in the public schools. It isa mistake, though, for the people to think that we exclude from school eitber teach- ers or pupils in whose residences there may be consumption. Buch would be the course relative to smallpox, cholera, scar- let fever, diphtheria, whooping cough, sore eyes, etc., but not in cases of con- sumption unless the pupll or teacher be personally afflicred. “At the last session of the Rules Com- mittee this rule about contagious diseases was referred to me for revision. The old rule was vague and unsatisfactory, since it did not enumerate the diseases classed as contagious. “While children afflicted with consump- tion, sore efles. ete., suould be excinded from the schools until all the danger 1s passed, there is no just reason why un- afflicted children living in the same houses where these diseases exist should be =0 ex- cluded. At the next session of the direc- tors, I shall offer the requisite amend- ments.” ————— BorROW on sealskins, silks and jewels at Uncle Hagrls', 16 Grani svenue. REALTY MARKET REVIEW. Center Market Property Finally Leased to D. Samuels. The THE TERMS CF THE LEASE. Last Week the Most Quiet of the Year—Auction Sales An- nounced. The real estate market has had many drawbacks to contend with the past year or two and it looks as if the end was not vet reached. A prospective high tax rate was the greatest menace a few weeks ago, but that was overcome, and now comes the Assessor with what is considered an arbitrary and uncalled-for increase in tax- able valvations of real estate Lo the amount of nearly $12,000,000. It is the opinion that this gentleman has not had occasion to visit the various real estate offices in the City this year or he would have learned long ago that values have depreciated ma- terially within the past year, and that, stead of any increase in the assessed val- ues of real estate, it would have been mors in keeping with existing conditions 10 bave reduced the assessed taxable valuation. Many specific 1nstances of exceedingly unjust assessments could beeited, and it is believed that the Assessor, if called upon to justify his actions in the premises, would have & pretty }lnni time jn setting up the shadow of & de- ense. Brokers claim that real es'ate has been com- pelled (0 bear an unjust share of the burdens of taxation for the past year and unless the Board of Superyisors, neting as a Board of Equalization, will undo the work of the As- sessor, many property owners will find but little difference in the amounts of their taxes between this year and last. Assessing prop- erty at $2000 and making tax rate of 214 and assessing the same property at $2500 with & tax rate of 13{ comes pretty near being a stand off, and if the Assessor’s valuation is permitied to stand property owners will be nearly or quite as badly off as they were the past year. Last week was the quietest one of the vear, as the records will show. Two holidays within a week, coupled with the fact that many pec- ple are at present absent from the City on va- cations, accounts mainly for the few transac- tions recorded during the week. BEVIEW OF THE RECORDS. There were eighty-three transfers recorded last week. Sixty-seven mortgages, aggregating 8157, 057, were recorded during the week. But two were for amounts exceeding $10,000. They were: By the Unlon Trust Company, $25,000 for one year at 612 per cent, on property on the south line of Post sircet, 137:6 fert east of Stockton, east 45:10 by south 120: and by the Hibernia Savings and Loan Soclety for one year at 615 per cent, $20,000 on property at the southeast corner of Battery and California streets, south 35:9, east 76:634, South 2:634, east 2:234, south 15 6 inches, south 9:2, east 5, south 7:8, west south 1438, east 2:4, south #le Inches, east 24, south 18:01s, east 5:1, south 2:614, east 5:6, south 30, east 18:6, north 137:6, and west 137:6. There were forty-nine releases, aggregating $140,756, recorded during the past week. They were all for small amounts, the highest being $6000. Fifteen buildirg contracts calling for a total expenditure of $81,228 were recorded last week. The particulars of each contract were, as usual, published in THE CALL at the time of filing. THE CENTER MARKET LEASED. After much negotiating D. Samuels, proprie- tor of the Lace House, has come to an under- stending with Mrs, Alice Phelan Sullivan, owner of the Center Market, and X?B! Saturday a lease was signed by the terms of which Mr. Samuels will, the 1st of next Febroary, be- come a tenant of what is now known as the Center Market property, at the corner of Sutter street and Srant nvenue. M‘n_v,)wrog:uhions and counter propositions were made before & final understanding was reached. The lease is fora term of five years with the privilege of five more, the monthly rental being $1200. By the terms of the lease extensive altera- tions sre to be made that will cost, it is esti- mated, about $40,000. The entire ground floor 18 to be remodeled.
