CHANDLER, Twenty-Third Senatorial District. Twenty-Fifth Senatorial District AN FRANCISCO'S STATE SENKTORS New Material for the Upper * House of the Legis- lature. Men Who Will Assist to Frame Laws for the People of California. REWARDED FOR THEIR MERIT. Will Have the Honor of Electing Two United States Senators Dur- ing Their Term. The Republican municipal convention, which has just adjourned, has, 1n connec- tion with its excellent selection of citizens who have been nominated for the various offices, placed vefore the voters of the five Senatorial districts the names of nominees for whom every voter in the district can conscientiously vote. Each and every man is in every way’ well fitted for the honorable position to which his fellow- citizens have called him. Following is a brief account of the five nominees: Hon..John T. Dare. The Thirty-third and Thirty-fifth As- sembly .districts, comprising the Nine- teenth Benatorial district, which covers that extensine territory of the San Bruno and South S8an Francisco section to the county line of San Mateo, will be repre. sented in the Senate by the Hon. John T. Dare. It would be a work of supererogation to laud the many excellent traits of character possessed by this gentleman,together with his fitness zor the high honor to which his fellow-citizens have called him, so well known is he, not only in the district which he will represent, but to the people of this City in general. John T. Dare is one of San Francisco's self-made men. By hard study he sne- ceeded in acquiring such a knowledge of law as to be admitted to the bar by the Supreme Court of this State. Since that time he has successfully followed the prac- tice of his profession. ; Shoruly after being admitted to the bar he was appointed by the then District Attorney, J. N. E. Wilson, as his first ‘assistant, when he was recognized :or his wonderful ability as a criminal prosecutor. At the present time he is Prosecuting At- torney in Police Court 3, where be has given general satisfaction to the public. ‘As a public speaker he ranks high for his oratorical abitity. This qualification has been the means of his engagement by the Republican State Central Committee during the campaign, when public speakers are sent forth to elucidate the principles of the party in interior towns. ‘With such gifts at its disposal S8an Fran- cisco will havea Senator from the Nine- teenth District that she will be proud to ecknowledge as one of her citizens, N. H. Burnham, The next State Senator from the Seven- teenth Senatorial District, which com- prises the Twenty-eighth and Twenty- ninth Assembly districts, will be N. H. Burnhem. Mr. Burnham is well and fa- vorably known in the district for which he bas received the nomination. < was born October 5, 1851, and re- sides at 305 Fremont strcet. He came to California in the year 1870 from Hartford, Conn., where his parents were born, being a scion-of good old Connecticut stock. ' He has resided in tbe district which be will represent since 1870, and has been a Re- publican all bis life. He is a working- man, wharf-builder by trade, comes from a workingmen’s district, and is a man of iamily. uring the past six years he has.been engaged in the office of the Btate Harbor | Commissioners, and besides representing the industrious and hard working com- munity in which he lives and whose inter- est he will represent in the State Senate, be has a thorough knowledge of the wants of the people of San Francisco. Coming irom one of the oldest American families in the State of Connecticut he is Ameri- can enough for the most patriotic son of a Revolutionary sire. Consequently he will go into the Senate without being called upon to explain when he became a nat- uralized citizen. M. J. Welch Jr. The State Senator who will represent the Twenty-third Senatorial District, com- prising the Thirty-first and Thirty-ninth Assembly districts, will be M. J. “Flch Jr. He is a young man who has resided in that district for the past ten years and who has no apologies to offer for the political faith that is in him. M. J. Weich Jr. firsi saw the light of day in Springfield, Mass., thirty years ago, in which place he spent his younger days and until he arrived at the age of 14 years. At the age of 13 years this young man alter going through the regular routine of the public State schools of Springfield eraduated from the grammar class and with his mother started for California to join his father, who wasengaged in mining in this State. 2 On his arrival in San Trancisco he entered the St. Joseph Coliege on Tenth and Howard streets, where he studied under Professor W. J. G. Wilhams. This course finished his studies, which so well fitted bim for his battle in life. He at once entered the service of the Gould railroad branch on this coast, and s0 well adapted was be for the service that he was advanced from one position to another of trust and responsibility, serv- ing as ticket, freight, traffic and passenger agent through a number of years, and in each and all positions giving entire satis- faction 10 his employers, In politics he bas at all times espoused the cause of the Republican party and has been an active worker in the ranks of ¥ | banner Thirty-ninth Assembly District Club for years. In his capacity as a State Senator the ople, not only of his district but of San rancisco, will have no apologies to offer for their representative. Edward I. Wolfe. The Twenty-first District, which com- prises the Thirty-seventh and Thirty- eighth Assembly districts, will be repre- sented in the Senate by that bright young lawyer and orator, Edward 1. Wolfe, who is well known not only in the district which he will represent, butall over the City. Edward 1. Wolfe was born in Haull, England, and twenty-two years ago came to San Francisco, where he has since re- sided. He is a graduate of the High School of this City, and for nineteen years resided in the Twenty-first Senatorial Dis- trict. For eight vears he was in the em- ploy of P. B. Cornwall, president of the Black Diamond Coal Company. In 1886 he was a candidate for the State Senate on the Republican ticket. It was the year ot the Democratic tidal wave, and with the rest was defeated, but in the district he received the largest vote ever cast fora Republican candidate. W. J. Ruddick, who was the only Republican City offi- cial, appointed him clerk of the probate department of the Superior Court. After that he served two years under Sheriff Laumeister, having charge of the real- estate department. Then he wasappointed secretary of the City Hall Commissioners remaining in that capacity until he formed a law vpartnership with Meyer Jacobs under the name of Wolfe & Jacobs, Mr. Wolfe is quite prominent in fra- tecnal circles. e _is president of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of B’nai B’rith; he is supreme representative of the Order of Chosen Friends, supreme representative of the Foresters of America and member of the committee on laws of | the Grand Lodge of the Knights of Pythias, of which committee Lieutenant-Governor Jeter is a member. Thomas W. Chandler. The Twenty-fifth Senatorial District, comprising the Forty-fourth and Forty- fifth Assembly districts, will be repre- sented in the State Eenate by one of the native sons of the district. | © Thomas W. Chandler does not have to |leave the district which he‘represents for sponsors. He was born in the midst of his own people thirty-three years ago and resided right among his constituemrts dur- ing those many years. Consequently there is no necessity to inform the voters of the Twenty-fourth Senatorial District who their Senator is. Large.of physique and generous of heart, he is popular along the water front, where he is known and respected. Having been engaged as a shipping master for a nufn- ber or years he stands well with the com- mercial community. The Republican nominee for this office was educated in the public schools of San Francisco, and in ali the grades which he went through his standard was always of the. highest order. meister’s administration Mr. Chandler held the position of bookkeeper, a place which requires a clear head and consider- | able ability 10 successfully fill. Besides being a natiye son of San Fran- cisco he has native sons ‘and daughters, who will in time become worthy citizens of this commonwealth. Mr. Chandler is a member of the Repub- lican County Committee which position he has held during the past six years, rep- resenting his disjrict with cure aud intel- ligence for the good of the party. His present promotion is made by his fellow Republicans on the ground of ability and as a reward” for his faithfulness to their interests. e UELINUUEWLLEETUHS Officers Outside of San Francisco Who Failed to Perform a Duty. Governor Budd Wants to Know Why Tax-Takers Have Not Levied on Certificate Transfers. Governor Budd is going after the Tax i Collectors'of the counties outside of San | Francisco, and intends to ascertain why they have neglected to perform a duty im- posed upon them by law. “The neglect,”’ said the Governor, *9s a | “failure to collect a tax of 10 cents on each | transier of a certificate of mining stock in this State. The money coilected goesinto a fund for the maintenance of tbe Califor- nia State Mining Bureau. Mr. Crawford, the State Mineralogist, called my atten- | tion to the fact a few days since, and I re- | ferred him to the Attorney-General, and 1 understand the law requiring the collec- tion has never been repealed.” “It is only in San Francisco that the tax on transfers of certificates of mining shares bas been collected,”” said Henry 8. Dur- den, secretary of the board of trustees of the California State Mining Eureau. “That tax has been a yearly revenue to the bureau of from $4500 1o $5000, while from the other counties the aggregate of the revenue has been but $20 in sixteen years. z *‘Thisdepartment has written repeatedly to the Tax Collectors of the several couniies and every one of them has ignored the matter except the 8an Francisco Collector. 1am satisfied that that neglect has been an annual loss to this department of $1000. I understand that the reasou that the interior people have refused to attend to this matter is tuat they claim that there is no penalty in the law for failure to col- lect the tax. But it seems to me that this law is as mandatory as any other, and now that the Governor has taken hold of the matter he will make them understand that there is a penalty in case they fail to perform a duty required by law. “It is a remarkabie fact,” continued the secretary, ‘‘that most of the tax is col- lected from certificates to mining com- panies located on the Comstock, in Ne- During the four years of Sheriff Lau- | vada.” —————— For Sound Money.

At Uncle IS VRGN WS PROTECTE Not Allowed to Answer Questions About Sena- tor Fair. In Geod Humor and a Chic Gown, but Her Attor- neys Ruled. ENJOYED THE LEGAL TILTS. In the Main the Young Heiress Cor- roborated Her Sister’s Deposition of the Previous Day. Miss Virginia Fair, looking as blithe and lissome and glad as a debutante, dressed In a picturesque suit of gray, topped with a ‘‘picture hat’’ with sweep- ing black feathers, added a small volume 1ng, said she “didn’t know what to say.” ® Lloyd then gave the cue by declaring that they were willing that the witness should answer any questions proper to the issue when put, but that they were op- posed to any further “fishing excursion” in this matter. Brittain then said he had finished. Mr. Foote asked leave to put a few questions, saying he thought he could get along with the w%tnns all right. He was allowed to ask two or three questions that had already been asked, but the moment he begun to touch upon thereasons why Miss Fair had changed her mind about the pencil will and if she had not acted ypon counsel’s advice, objection followed objection and he, too, was compelled to give it up. ~_ Miss Fair, in answer to Brittain’s ques. tions, bad said that she had examined the photographic covies of the deed for the Sansome-street property and it apoeared to bher tnat the body of the instrument was written by her father. Then Brittain askea if she had examined it with a view of comparing the writing in the body of the document with that of the signature. Bhe said she had examined both and it looked 1ike her father’s writing. Here Wheeler made a demand that the document be produced before they would g0 on with the cross-examination, Brittain said the paper was not in their keeping and they could not produce it at that time. They would produce it at a proper time, “We want it now or at the time we begin cross-examination. Will. the coun- sel tell us what he thinks is a proper time?" “This proceeding is for the taking of the deposition of the witness and not for giv- ing legal opinions,” said Brittain, - * “In other words, we can’t and won’t produce it at this time,” said Foote, sharply. “Then we refuse to go on with the MISS VIRGINIA FAIR as She Appeared While Giving Her Testimony Yesterday. to the literature of the Fair litigation yes- terday. Under the stress of many questions and smajl ventilation in the offices of Notary Phillips the lady, when the afternoon was growing old, took oft her gray jacket and revealed a very chic waist of light blue trimmed with white lace and black rib- bons. Despite her ililness of the day be- fore, she was in the very best of humor and treated the wrangling of the attorneys | over their abstruse technicalities as a thing to be thoroughly enjoyed. Her sister, Mrs. Oelrichs, was present during the entire day and was also much interested in the proceedings, although they developed nothing of moment. She introduced a costume that has been seen only once during her long series of ap- pearances in the long series of cases and depositions. bliss Fair's depositions yesterday were givenin the twin suitsin ejectment brought by Mrs, Oraven under her deeds for the Mission and the Pine street properties. What she said was very much what Mrs. Oelrichs had said the day before and a repetition of what she herself had said in previous depositions. She remembered that her father had said to her also that he was not married and that he never in- tended to marry, because of his children— that he wished all his estate to goto them. The inquiry was conducted by F. 8. Brittain in the absence of Mr. Delmas, the latter being still engaged at San Jose. In the afternoon W. W. Foote came to Mr. Brittain’s support and & stipulation was entered into by which the deposition in the case of Craven against Fair might be nsed in the case of Craven against Oelrichs, the contention being identical in each case, except that ome is for the Mis- sion and the other the Sansome street property. The feature of the day’s proceedings was the stand taken by the attorneys for the sisters. They began objecting early in the day and kept it up, instructingsthe witness not to answer *“‘un advice of coun- sel,” and the witness followed the advice to the letter in each instance and refused to answer *‘on advice of counsel.” This was carried to such length that Brittain asked, finally: “Will you answer any more questions having .a proper relevancy to this 1ssue ?” The witness was advised not to answer on advice of counsel—‘‘and as it implied the necessity of the witness to judge of the nlevdn?’cy of whatever questions might be asked. Brittain then asked if she was willing to go on with her deposition. The witness 100! ingairingly at Mr. Lioyd and Mr. Wheeler. They made no sign in this last exiremity, and she, laugh- cross-examination at this time,” said Wheeler. From that point on the objections fol- lowed fast and faster to the questions put. Miss Fair will read and sign her deposi- tion this morning, NO RELIEF AT LAW. Orange County Must Look for Re- imbursement to the Legisla~ ture of the State. In Department 1 of the Supreme Court a decision was rendered on Monday affirm- ing the judgment of the lower tribunal in the case of Orange County against Los An- geles County. The action was brought to recover $1903 70, alleged to be Urange County’s vroportion of §19,032 43 received from the Srate as repayment of money expended by Los Angeles County in aiding indigent old persons curing the interval between the 30th of June, 1883, and the 11th of March 188). When Orange County was created in 1889 a commission was appointed to ad- just the respective liabilities of the two counties. This commission made s care- ful investigation into the financial status of the case, but omitted to note the State id due and owing to Los Angeles for the care of the aged poor. Orange County claimed a little over a tentn of the amount as its share. This claim was disallowed by the Los Angeles Supervisors, and Orange County brought the matter into court. ' While recognizing the justice of the ourt says: claim, the Supreme *‘Where a county is divided, the rule for the division and apportionment of the debts and property between such county and detached territory belongs exclusively to the Legislature and not to the courts. In performing their duties the Commis- sioners doubtless intended to make the division as required; and if they failed to. do so, the faiiure arose through mistake. The mistake was one, however, wkich in our opinion can be corrected by legisla- tive action only, and not by the courts.

BRODERICK HAS REFUSED T0 SIGN No Money for Many City Employes This Month. The Municipal Government Said to Be in Serious Danger. TO BE TAKEN TO THE COURTS, Mandamus Proceelings Will Be B:gun Against the Auditor To-Day. ‘With the first of the month and accom- panying collection day staring them in the face, the deputies in the offices of the Sheriff, County Clerk, Coroner, District Attorney, Assessor and Recorder are on the horns of a dilemma, for Auditor Brod- erick has decided that their warrants are not to be signed, because he is uncertain as to the meaning of certain clauses of the county government act. A representative of the Sheriff's office called at the Auditor's office yesterday to make a formal demand for the warrants of bis department, though the time for de- livery is not until to-day. He was told that the Sheriff’s own war- rant would be ready for delivery to-day, but that the deputies would receive no money. This information caused consternation in the Sheriff's cflice, and as the news of the Auditor’s held-up of the City govern- ment spread through the hall other de- vartments sent to the Auditor for infor- mation, and all received the same satisfac- tion—no mouney, except for the heads of the departments mentioned. The information did not come from the Auditor direct, for that official has been practically invisible for several days past, on the anderstanding that he is preparing a siatement of his position in the matter, but was leaned from conversations with subordinates about the office. Then the wrath of tue ‘‘deps” broke loose, and if Mr. Broderick had heard all of the uncomplimentary things that were said about him he would probably have felt far from pleased. If 10-day brings no change in the situa- tion mandamus proceedings will undoubt- edly be begun to compe! Mr. Broderick to sign the warrants. Otherwise the City employes must suffer. . Tue Auditor says he is acting in accord- ance with the advice of his atiorney, Ga ret McEnerney, who believes that, until the Supreme Court should determine the question whether the county government act requires officers in cities of the first | class to pay their clerks out of their sala- ries and jees he would possibly incura serious liability by auditing the demands. The question will not be settled until the petition for a rehearing of ihe tenure-of- office case shall be passed upon. AFTER THE HUNTERS. The Cordelia Gun Club Will Arrest All ‘Who Trespass on Its Preserve. The Sportsmen’s Protective Association will meet on Tuesday evening, October 6, at Knights of the Red Branch Hall, specially for the purpose of discussing the question of game preserves. According to the decision as recently rendered by the Supreme Court, it would appear that the clubs which have leasea large tracts of marsh land 1n Solano County are now in a position to defend themselves against trespassers. At any rate, the Cordelia Club is determined to punish all hunters who enter upon its preserve, and with this object in view a small army of keepers will be stationed on the Suisun marshes on the opening day of the game-shooting season, October 15, to assist the officers of the iaw in making arrests of hunters who refuse to leave the premises when or- dered to decamp. An attorney who is well known among sportsmen said yesterduy that according to the décision rendered by the Supreme Court the clubs which have leased lands must fence them properly before they can cause the arrest or trespassers. It is said that there are many acres of leased marsh lands near Suisun which are not in- closed. On Sunday next the tug Vigilant will take the Knights of 8t. Patrick and their iriends to the Farallon Islands, where the annual fishing excursion of the Knights wiil be held. D. E. Condon, C. J. Mec- Glynn, F.
