THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1896. BUTTERWORTH ON STANFORD CAMPUS University Students Listen to the Buckeye State Orator. Excursion Trains Bring Crowds From the Neighboring Towans. ARRAIGNS THE PEMOCRACY. Logical Cemparison of the Policies Advocated by the National Parties. SPANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL, Oct. | 10.—Stanford University and Palo Alto turned out to-day to listen to the elo- quent Ben Butterworth of Ohio. Excur- sions were ru se, Mountain View and Redwood City, and over 1800 people were embled on the grounds n the speaking began. Inspiring mu- by the university and s, and two good addresses ohn M. Switzer 98, president of the ersity Republican Club, presided, 1 delivered a snort opening speech, in mbers of the faculty who had come to McKinley, while not more than e or four had announced themselves van. He introduced Congressman ssman Butterworth spoke of the ed constitutional amendment grant- the electoral franchise to women. He d that in the Buckeye State women al- dy had a voice in public affairs, and he t quite sure but the people were ing in their own light in not giving them a vote al “The hand that rocks the cradle is ¢ hand that rules the he child is father to the were three epigrammatic y means of which he summed vhole argument in favor of the Jontinuning, e said: men, we are he: And only ome of them is thing, and I am here to right way, because we est. misled as to what he is vot- both parties have notified the they are going 10 do if ihey No one doubts that they is, if they keep their have told us hey get control. e there is the question as to I we 1avor & protective tariff system. sors generally tell us that & pro- ffis a bad thing and theoreticall; "’ but practically I don't. t theoretically I have enough ight be starving to judge than he.

He said: ung men who have put on the the Government have been of such an unbridled exhibition of I don’t think men of that stamp any conviction wh viction by tw he describes peonage. 1 didn’t Was any part of our coun and up before an audi- that way and yet be tle is. s and tending to thatt ded s this man Batterworth then took up 1oney question, and devoted consid- bie time to the discussion of the falla- on which the free-silver idea was based: We want no circulating medium of blather- We do not need more money, but circulation. The only way to gel outof isto get prosperity. You say what we itis thata man ean go and chuck silver bullion into one window of the Mint and take at s1lver dollars at the other. How will that elpus? Have we any to chuck? Thisidea hat the Government stamp makes mouey is If the Governmentican make silver tsitcan do the same with pota- iron. What makes wheat or po- tatoes at th resent value is the amount that they will bring in the market; and silver must go the same way. Now, they say tnat I am going back on my record. ButIam doing no such thing. Ihave always opposed gold monometallism or any otner kind o monometallism. As s00n as we have this free silver they tell us about, we who are in debt will go up & flume. We need sound money, sound credit apd an honest medium, and then we will have prosperity. The speaker took up the plank of the Chicago platform, denouncing President sleveland and the Supreme Court. He ted most vehemently that Americans have never yet been a people shackled hand and foof; that they are not communists; that thev are a liberty loving people, but believed in liberty with law. He deplored the extremity to which they had been brought when such de- nunciatory and incendiary sentiments as these passed from mouth to moutn. The address occupied a little over an hour in its delivery, and was followed with marked attention. It was character- ized by touches of humor, and the speaker was more than once compeiled to pause until the applause had subsided. Following Congressman Butterworth, Judge Walling. candidate for Presidential elector on the Republican ticket, spoke for a few minutes on the financial question. He is a careful speaker and made a sound argument for honest finance, his deating with the free-silver heresy being even more harsh than that of the previous speiker, At the conclusion of **The Battle Cry of ‘ reedom’ by the band, the audience dis- ersed, Jldidas {5 S Tally of Bakersfield Silverites.

I | was the only speaker. His address was attentively listened to and frequently cheered. He dealt solely with the silver question, dismissing the tariff by saying that the collections under ;the Wilson bill hadflbeen largely under the McKinley tariff. . LOS ANGELES POLITICS. Lively Quarrel in the Democratic Conven- tion Over the Trading With the Populists. LOS ANGELES, AL, Oct. 10.—The at- tempt at fusion here to-day between the municipal conventions of the Democrats and Populists has led to an interminable confusion, and caused Hon. Burdett Chan- dler to declare in a speech of unusual fire on the floor of the Demccratic body that this fusion business was rapidly leading the Democracy to that region which pa- gan Bob Ingersoll says has no real exist- ence. Chandler was opposing the adop- | tion of the report submitted by a Popo- cratic committee looking toward ‘‘an equitable division” of offices in this city. Delegate Chandler was not the only pa- triot in the Democratic convention who looked with disfavor upon this trading. A score of leading Democrats pointed out | the bad faith and worse promises of their amiable neighbors, the Populists, Refer- ence was made to the iamentable experi- ence of two years ago, when that “young | | Jeffersonian Democrat,” George Patton, took a very disconsolate trip up Salt River in his efforts to go to Congress from this district. The scene in the convention during the consideration of the fusion report was dis- orderly in_the extreme. Chairman Dock- weiler had no control over the body, and for nearly an hour pandemonium reigned. The resolutions adopted were lengthy and promised anything and every- thing in the way of reforms and good, easy times for workingmen, with big pay, rt hours and many other things with which municipalities have nothingz what- | ever to do. These beneficent resolutions were considered so timely and fitting that the Populist convention, hearing of them, sent over and asked consent for a copy at | once. Under a suspension of the rules M. P. | Snyder, Democratic Councilman from the | Second Ward, was nominated for Mayor, | defeating Dr. Choat after “ex-Mayor Thomas E. Rowan had withdrawn. No other nominaiions were made, and both conventions adjourned to Monday fore- | noon. i | | Ex-Mayor Rowan and his friends are the maddest men in this end of the State to-night. Early this forenoon a resolun- tion was rushed through the Populist con- vention connecting Rowan with the water | company. This resoiution was in the na- | ture of serving notice, in advance, to the | Democrats _that under no circamstances would the Populists indorse his nomina- tion. This compelled Rowan’s retirement | and aroused the anger of himseif and his many friends. shor WHY HE 18 ¥OE McKINLEEX. Democratio W. J.

An escort of 160 uniformed men escorted Mr. Cutler from the Occidental Hotel to the hall, | | preceeded by a band.

She Is a Grocer’s Comely Wife and \ Her Companion a Beardless Youth. SAN JOSE, OAL., Oct. 10.—Mrs. Charles Band, wife of the proprietor of a small grocery-store at the corner of Tenth and William streets, has left her home with- out giving’ any apparent reason. John Lythe, a young man who has been em- ployed as a clerk in the store, is also miss- ing, and there is every reason to believe that the couple have eloped.
