4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 1896. POPULISTS WANT MONEY BADLY An Appeal Issued to Every “American Patriot” in the Land. FUNDS FOR THE WORK. Contributions of $1 Would Be Acceptable to the National Committee. LAVISH PROMISES ARE MADE. At the Same Time the Stand of the People’s Party in the Past Is Praised. WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 8.—The following address to *‘every American pa- triot” has been issued from the headquar- ters of the National People’s party. In full it reads: To Every American Patriot: The People’s party, as its name implies, is the champion of the masses who labor and produce wealth. It was summoned into existence by an induse trial conterence that represented the products of the Nation. When it sprang into the politi- cal arena it was the only party demanding the enactment of laws for the suppression of monopolies and for the equal protection of all citizens against the encroachments of corpor- ate power. Itis now theonly party in exist- ence which with undivided membership is de- manding equal rights to all and special privi- leges to none. To the efforts of this party is due the revolt of the masses of the Democratic party, which resulted in turning down the Cleveland administration and its British financial policy and the nomination of W. J. Bryan on a platform demanding financial in- dependence for the United States. The pluto- cratic elements that heretofore dominated Democratic conventions and dictated nomina- tions are now vigorously resenting the action of the Chicago convention, which they con- sider as unwarranted interference on the part of the voters. They have organized, and are now to open the campaign as aggressive allies of the gold Republicans, and with their money and votes will do everything in their power to defeat the will of the people by the election of McKinley, the Republican candidate, whose nomination was dictated by and whose administration is mortgaged toa combination of American and English monopolists and plutocrsts. The mission of the People’s party is to re- store the Government to the people. To this | end it has nominated Mr. Bryan for President | and Mr. Watson for Vice-President, which is not only the true co-operative ticket for silvere voters of all parties to unite upon, but waich | 1s also the best silver ticket in the field. Our | iriends must not abate one jot or tittle of their interest or efforts to advocate the principles of | the People’s party because another party has been forced to adopt nearly all of our princi- ciples. Itmust be remembered that control of the National Democratic party was obtained by the silver men of that party only through a bitter contest in each State—a contest, how- ever, which was forced upon the party and its leaders by the existence and rigid growth of the People’s party. Had it not been for the People’s party each one of the old parties would this year have been running & gold bug for President, as they have in each campaign for the last twenty years. The People’s party has made - this political revolution possible, and its continued existence and growth are necessary to secure reforms for which the Populists and silver Democrats are alike contending in this campeign. It must be also remembered that there is now a considerable majority in the Democratic party who, though supporting the action of the Chicago convention, do 8o from policy, and behind their present vosition 1s lurking many & doubt and mental reservation. That these | doubts and mental reservations may yet re- enforee the bolting plutocrats of thé Indian- apolis convention and render the action of the Democratic party uncertain in. the future are possibilities to be discounted, and tke People’s party is the only agency through which the people can do this. Therefore it is the interest and duty of every good citizen who believes in a govern- ment a8 administered by Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln to upbuild and strengthen this National organization, which has made re- form and relief possible in this campaign. To have a_government of the peopls the people must have a party that is true to them through which to obtain such a government. This they cannot have if the National part; draws iis csm}}uxgn funds from bankers an corporations. The National commitiee of a party exercises great influence in the selection of National officers, from President of the United States down {0 the village postmaster. Whenever a National committee, through some secret and unscen agency, collects large sums of campaign funds, then it is sure that that party is mortgaged to those who con- tribuie such funds. In fact, such a party is sure to pass laws giving to the monopolists and trusts who furnish these campeign funds special privileges that will enable them to levy tribute upon the people. When contributions to campaign funds come from such sources they @o not come as & gift, but as en invest- ment, upon which they expect a return of a hundred fold. If this were not so the trusts and monopolists would not throw their money away in campaigns; therefore the people must contribute funds for some political party during the campaign in order to have that party to guard their interests aiter elec- tio; 1f the People’s party is placed in power it will serve the peopie: and 1o be left free to do this your National Committee cannot and will not accept contributions from the monopolists who seek special laws 10 ensble them to prey u%zn the people. he People’s party proceeds from the peo- ple and isof the peopie, and must receive its Eupport from the people direct in the form of small contriputions from the individual voter. Such small contributions from the individual voter of eny varty will furnish an abundant campaign fund Jor all legitimate purposes and enable the party receiving it to success- 1ully compete with any corrupt organization of bankers, corporations and venal politi- cians. Therefore in behalf of the people of the United States, who produce wealth and pay taxes, the People’s party National Committee appeals 10 all who are able and willing to do 80 to contribute the sum of §1 toour National campaign fund. A prompt response is urgently requested to enable us to Drosecute s Vigorous campaign in defense of our homes and liberties, that are menaced by =& combined plutocracy—the Rothschild-Morgan-Hanna-McKinle; combi~ nation fighting usin front, and the Roths. child-Morgan-Cieveland-Paimer combination fighting us in the rear. ¥ Four years more of gold standard and monopoly rule, with falling prices and shrink- ing values, and thousandsof mortgaged homes wlgl be lost and thousends more of our laborers will be without employment. Plutocracy is desperate and is determined to have a Presi- dent and Congressof 1ts own, that will increase 2nd use the army tosuppress bread riots while g:ld.grnw' dearer and human life grows cheager. i Your National Committee is doing the best it can against a rich and powerful combina- tion, For us to stand any hope of winuin; you must uphold us. If we could have but f cent for every $10 used by the enem we could carry on a vigorous campaign that would mean their defeat, This 1s your fight, Itis our fight. Hold up our hends and we will do our duty in the ter. rible struggle. Don’t wait for somebody else 1o move. What is everybedy’s business is no- body's business. Make this your business. At once see several of your neighbors; try to get them to contribute at least $1. 1f some cannot do this then get eacn to glve as much as he can. In short, take up asub- scrivtion in your community &t once end for- ward the amount, with the names of the con- tributors, to Hon. M. C. Rankin, Terre Haute, Ind., our National treasurer. Alsoatthe same time notify your National chairman at Wash- ingron, D. C., of the amount thus jorwarded. ‘bere is no time to lose. It is now-only eight weeks until the battle will be wen or lost. Be the first in your commnnity to forward & sub- scription. We must win this fight. Let each do his duty and victory awaits u MART BUTLER, Chairman National People’s Party Committee. J. A.

SEATTLE, Wasn., Sept. 8.—Chinese residents of this city have appointed a committee consisting of Mark Ten Suie, Gee Hee and Loui King, representing three big Chinese mercantile concerns in Seattle, to wait upon and pay their re- spects to Li Hung Chang upon his arrival on Saturday at Vancouver en route home. Mark Ten Suie, who is a representative of the better class of Chinese, says the dis- tinguished Viceroy's visit means much to the United States; that Li will upon his return to China begin the construction of a system comprising no less than 33,000 miles of railroad, and that gold and silver mines in a range of mountains extending for 1500 miles along Northern China will be opened. Much iron and machinery to be used in developing these enterprises, Mark Ten Sule states from private Chi- nese advices, will be purchased in the United States., Mark says that Li pro- poses the publication of a book embracing bis experiences and what he has learned on his trip upon his return to the Flowery Kingdom. e i IN JAIL AT VISALlA, Frank Davenport Arrested as a Train- Hobber Suspect. VISALIA, Car., Sept. 8.—Frank Daven- port was arrested this morning before day- light at a cabin near S8equoia mills, Fresno County, by Detective Brighton and Deputy Sheriff Frank Hafley. Heis now in jail here, charged with being an accomplice in the unsuccessful attempt made by Dan McCall to rob the Southern Pacific train near Tagus on the 18th of last March. This is the second time Davenport has been arrested. For several weeks an attempt has been made to get 8i Lovren, who is under sen- tence of life imprisonment for his connec- tion with the robbery, to make a confes- sion. Last Sunday he made a statement to the officers, and enough information was obtained to justify the officers in arresting Davenport, Charles Ardell, who is also charged with being an accomplice of Mc- Call, will be tri on Thursday of this week. WEODED AT SAN JOSE, Dr. L N. Frasse and Miss Maude Arques Become Life Partners. Brilliant Ceremony in the Parlors of Hotel Vendeme at High Noon. SAN JOSE, CaL., Sept. 8.—The mar- riage of Miss Maude Arques and Dr. I. N. Frasse took place in the parlors of the Hotel Vendome at noon to-day. The wed- ding was an elaborate affair and was at- tended by the elite of the city. Miss Evelyn Murphy was the maid of honor, and the bridesmuaids were Miss Mattie Taafe, Miss Lolita McGeoghean, Miss Mollie Taaffe, Miss Mabel Arques and Miss Lizzte Carroll. George W. Hender- son was the groom’s best man, and he was attended by Martin Murphy, Richard Hotaling, John Enright, Peter Donahue and Clement Arques. The parlors were beautifully decorated with palms, smilax and flowers. In the folding doors between the parlors hung a large pell of white roses, and under this the ceremony was performed by Rev. Father Mahoney. An orchestra behind a bank of palms played Mendelssohn’s wed- ding march as the couple and their at- tendants entered. After the ceremony the guests partook of a wedding breakfast, the orchestra playing a Swedish wedding march during the march to the banquet- room. The menu was elaborate. A reception was held later, aiter which Mr. and Mrs., Frasse left for San Fran- cisco, whence they will go to New York for a conple of months’ visit. The bride is a daughter of Mrs. Nellie G. Arques and the late Joaquin Arques. She has been prominent in society since her debut a few years ago. Dr. L. N. Frasse was formerly a residentof New York. He came to this city eighteen months ago. e Parker Contest Resumed. 8AN JOSE, CAL., Sept.8.—The Parker will contest was resumed in Judge Rey- nolds’ court this morning.

BRAINY YOUNG MEN IK LINE. No One Found at the Institution to Organize a Democratic Club. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL, Sept. 8.—The Republicans held an enthusiastic meeting here last evening, and for two bours the quadrangle resounded with vells for the Republican candidate for President. Four bundred students turned out to listen to the speeches, all by stu- dents of the university. The meeting was beld under the auspices of the McKinley Club, which numbers several hundred members now. The Democrats had a club, but its officers have become Repub- licans during the past summer, aud as yet there has been no one to call a meeting. The Republican rally was the first of a series to be held during the campaign. The meeting was cailed to order by Mr. Switzer '98, president of the club, who made a brief but ringing address on the need of organization among the students to advance the cause of McKinley and prosperity. He introduced Sheldon 96, formerly a Democrat and an officer of the Democratic Club here. Sheldon was one of the Stanford intercollegiate debaters in the last debate with Berkeley, and his con- version to the cause of sound money is considered quite a circumstance here. Bheldon made one of the best speeches of the evening. He mentioned briefly the dangers of the proposed Democratic mea- sure and policy and the disaster likely to result to tbe commercial interests of the country from their adoption. He advised no one to cast a vote for the gold nominees— Palmer and Buckner—on the ground that it would be a vote thrown away. A Demo- crat 1n favor of sound money must vote for McKinley, he said, for he weakened the great cause he believed in should he cast a vote for Palmer. Sheldon emphasized the fact that inter- national bimetalism was the only sort of bimetallism that would be practicable, and showed how intimately the policy of this country was bound up in that of other nations. Ross, also an intercollegiate debater, made alucid statement of the issues at stake. His speech was roundly cheered. Among others who addressed the meet- ing were Squires '97 of Nebraska, who believes his State will go Republican, Lake ’97 and Kinney *00. —— e EDDY TALKS AT SALINAS, Prospective Beet-Growers Shown the Ben- efits of Protection. BALINAS, CAL., Sept. 8, — The political campaign in Monterey County for 1896 was opened in Balinas this evening with a rousing gathering of Republicans from all portions of the county. Hon. J. R. Heb- bron presided. The new opera-house was filled from gallery to prosceniom arch. ‘The speaker of the evening was Hon. T. V. Eddy of Minnesota. Not at any time during his two hours’ speech did the audi- ence lose interest in his arguments. Eddy discussed the 16 to 1 question, and proved that the Republican party has been the only true friend of silver. His handling of the real issue, protection, brought forth cheer after cheer from the audience, showing that the old Republi- can doctrine still arouses more enthusiasm than does any other issue. His mention of McKinley’s name was received with an outburst of applause. He showed the Dem- ocratic voter how much more benefit he would receive under a tariff that would bring $1 per_ton here 1o the beet-grower than under Democratic policy. This struck home. Every beet-grower is anxious to get as much for his beets as possible, and many Democratic voters who intend to raise sugar-beets for the mammoth fac- tory to be located here prefer a tariff that will yield them from $10 to $20 per acre more than the legislation advocated by Bryan. SR LOS ANGELES CUMBINE, Secret Agreement Between Fopulists and Demoorats, LO8 ANGELES, CaL., Sept. 8.—At a joint meeting of the co-executive commit- tees of the Democratic and Populist par- ties here, an agreement is said to have been entered into secretly, whereby a fusion is to be effected between the par- ties at interest, looking to joint tickets on candidates for Superior Judgeships, the Legislature and Supervisors. The plan is that the Populists are to have tour out of six of the Assembly candidates, two out of four candidates for Buperior Judges and two out of three Supervisorial candi- dates, while the Democrats are to name the candidate for the State Senate, This scheme is said 1o be in furtherance of the White-Cator combine to control the election of United States Senator next winter and two years hence. The move will meet.with tr-mendous opposition in both Democratic and Populist conven- tions, which meet here next Monday, and it is now, believed that fusion will be de- feated. ——— Orange County iepublicans. BANTA ANA, CaL, Sept. 8.—The Re- publican County Convention to-day nom- inated J. W. Ballard for Superior Judge and H. W. Cheynoweth for Assemblyman from the Beventy-sixth district. George C. Perkins was indorsed for United States Benator and the Assemblyman was ;}lcdgod to him. The delegates to the hirty-sixth District Senatorial Conven- tion, comprising Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties, which meets at Newport Beach on the 26th 1nst., were chosen. The convention closed with three rousing cheers for McKinley and the county ticket. elia o Humboldt County Fusionists. EUREKA, CAn, Sept. 8.—At a joint meeting of the County Central Committees of the Democratic and Populist parties to- day, it was resolved to turn over the management of the campaign in Hum- boldt to a committee of nine, composed of Democrats, Populists and Silver Repub- licans. Those selected are: Democrats— P. W. Matthews, D. K. B. Sellers, James F. Coonan; Populists—S. Fulmor, C. L. Devlin, J. W. nnedy; Silver Repub- licans—David Evans, Ed Barnard, H. W. ‘Wandesforde. s S Prospective Fusion in Kern. BAKERBFIELD, Carn, BSept. 8&—A political sensation was sprung here to-day by the unlooked-for withdrawal of J. W. Abern, Democratic nominee for Superior Judge, and George W, Wear, Democratic nominee for Assemblyman, from the Democratic county ticket. Both Ahern and Wear were the unanimous choice of the party at its recent county convention. In his resignation, Ahern claims that it is donme for the purpose of forming a fusion between the Democrats and Popu- lists. Itis rumored that the Populist can- didate for Judge and Assemblyman will also resign to aid the scheme. A confer- ence of the two parties regarding the mat- ter is announced for Thursday morning. i e McLachlan at Sants ¥nez. LOS OLIVOS, CarL., Sept. 8.—The Re- publican campeign was opened in the Santa Ynez Valley last night by the Hon. James McLachlan at Santa Ynez. Mc- Lachlan spoke to a large and attentive audience, and his exposition of the falla- cies ana impractabilities of free silver, as advocated by Bryan & Company, was a revelation to many who imagined they understood the proposition. The speaker used argament unanswerable, supported by facts and figures, in favor of the real issue—protection. The meetinz closed with cheers for McKinley and Hobart. i e Says Free Silver Means Ruwin. A SEATTLE, Wass., Sept. 8.—Baron von Herman of the German Embassy at Washington, D. C., who is studying the agricultural resources of this State, in discussing politics to-day said: ‘‘Bimet- allism by the United States alone would cause great loss to your country, but free coinage, which is virtually the adoption of the silver standard, would be much worse. I am not surprised at the with- drawal of capital from this country under present conditions.”’ Utah Gold Democrats. SALT LAKE, Uram, Sept. 8.—The gold Democrats of this State, led by Parley L. Williams, decided to-dav to Lold a con- vention and nominate Presidential elec- tors for Palmer and Buckner. STAVFORU'S CLASS-RUSH Freshmen Defeat Sophomores in the First Clash of the Year. Newcemers Take Many Prisoners in an Exciting Contest for Supremacy. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., Sept. 9.—The first class rush of the year came off to-day, and as a result the *‘nitty-nits” are walking around with their heads high in theair, for the sophomores were downed in an efficient manner, notwithstanding their organization and pluck. Fully sixty men had been organized by sophomores, who elected Rollie Wilbur '99, the shot- putter, as their captain, and Freeman, the tennis champion, as first lieutenant. ‘The who'e number was divided up into squads of three or four men each, and all were provided with rope. Last evening they donned their rushing clothes and marched about the campus and the men’'s dormi- tory shouting their battle cry: ’'Rah, 'Rah, "Rah, 8is boom ah; ’99, ’99, Ha, Ha, Ha. Buzt the freshmen were not to be taken in in that mannerand soavoided the rush, but notified the ‘“‘sophs’’ that they would be on deck this afternoon—and they were with a vengeance. Everybody knew that a rush was to occur and the chief subject of conversation auring the lunch-hour was how it would resuit. It was well known that the fresbmen had morc large men than the sophomores and that they were greater in numbers, but experience and organization were all on the side of the sophomores. hortly after the lunch-hour the fresh- men prepared to march uporf’ the sopho- mores, who were believed to be ensconced behind the big museum. The news came then that the ‘“‘sophs” had been making hay while the sun shone and had captured all the freshmen as they came up from Palo Alto; that these men, to the number of filteen, had been sent off in a bus to Redwood City, five miles away. A scramble over the field to the Palo Alto road was made by the seventy or more freshmen and here they met in bat- tle. It was a sight to be remembered. Neatly dressed co-eds were on hand in plenty, but they evidently cared less for their unfortunate brothers than did the Berkeley girls. There was no administer- ing vo the wants of the wounded. per classmen were on in plenty, and those who steered clear of rushes when their own class rushing days were on seemed to be more prominent than ever in advising the combatants. Both sides were dressed for the occasion in the oldest, most tattered garments pro- curable. The scrap was fast and furious; at first one side seemed to have sn advantage and then the other. Men would sway backward and forward in their wresth roll in the dust till they were as black coalheavers, tie each other up fast as possible and tien be carted off to the re- spective piles of prisoners, perhaps to get loose and do it all over again until they were utterly exhausted. The fight lasted forty minutes and culminated in the carting away by the freshmen of all their prisoners to neighboring points, the pris- oners being dropped off along the road to make their way back as fast as they could. The yell of the 1900 classmen changed from Rah, Reh, Ru, Rah, Rah, Ree, Nineteen Hundred, Century, Te Rah, Rah, Ru, Rah, Rah, Ree, Nindteen Hundred, Victory. And the class rush of the year was over. ————— COMEIS OBSERVED AT LICK. The Astronomers Are Watching Three Covrsers Whrough Space.

Disqualified for Breaking After Winning Three Heats in a Trot. PRINCE GIFT EEATS EUNYADI Easily Captures the Three-Year-0ld Stake—Betty G:ntry Takes a Purse. SACRAMENTO, Car, Sept. 8.—A shower of hisses from the grand stand and betting-ring greeted a decision, seemingly 4s unjust as it was technical, rendered by the judges at the track to-day. Laurel, driven by Keating, was a barred favorite in the betting before the 2:24 trot, but what caused her to repeatedly break in the three heats following the first, which she had taken in a jog, will probably for- ever remain a conundrum. Twilight, owned and driven by the old veteran, Dennis Gannon, took the second, third and fourth heats, and was enthusiastically cheered, as every one supposed that a purse had fallen where it was most needed. During the supposed deciding heat the mare made two very slight breaks, and forty yards from the wire, owing to the nervousness of the driver, left her feet and ran under the wire, al- though it was plain to all that the mis- take did not better her chances. But the rule was forthcoming that permits the judges to disqualify a horse for repeatedly breaking, and as in this particular case three times was considereded ‘repeat- edly,’” Twilight was placed last and the heat given to Niece. The attendance was_ good, but the bet- ting was very hght. No doubt tkis could in part be plamed to the poor card, which was far below mediocrity. Prince Gift, Laure! and Betty Gentry were the money- winners. There were but two starters in the three- year-old stake, valued at $550. Hunyadi at one time ruled favorite, but the betting shifted in favor of Prince Gift, who was a 1to 3choice in the books when the pair were called. The Prince won as he pleased in_straight neats, Hunyadi never being able to get near him. Six scored up in the 2:2¢4 trot. With Laurel barred, Adaison sold choice at $10, the field bringing $7 and Harry Win- chester $4. Laurel took the opening heat easily in 2:20, with Addison second. Then she began acting crazily, and wouald finish any place but close up at the end. After Twil?uht had taken two heats and was de- prived of the third, Laurel went out and stepped two very pretty heats, taking the purse. The books laid 25 to 1 against the field defeating Laurel in the first heat won by Twilight. . The last race on the card was the 2:22 ace, heat dashes. Pulatine acted so adly in scoring that she was finally left, after baving broken one bike and at- tempted the trick on a second. This left but three starters, with Neilie B a7 to 10 fayorite. Betty Gentry, driven by W. H. Stimson, and a 2)4 to 1 shot, took the first and two following dashes very clev- erly in 2:16, 2:21, 2:21. In the second heat Nellie B was distanced, but the elastic set of rules was again drawn and she was al- lowed to start again.

Opening of the Fall Meeting at Irvington Park. PORTLAND, Ogr., Sept. 8.—The fall meeting of the Portland Jockey Ciub opened at Irvington Park to-day. Fine weather, a fast track and an aggregation of some 150 visiting horses from Cali- fornia, Idaho, Montana and Washington made the sport attractive. Something new to racetracks was seen in the shape of an electric starting-gate, which was lately planned by J. W. Cox and successfully used at Helena. It does away with even a slight chance of any jockey getting an advantage in starting, as at the post the starter presses a button behind gis pack and the gate flies up. Trotting, 2:25 class, Condes won in three straight heats, Frank O'Neill second. Best time, 2:21. Pacing, 2:21 class, Estella won, Altawood second, Stanwix third.
