THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1896. JUDGE MAGUIRE T0 THE WORKINGMAN Government by Injunction Is Elcquently De- nounced. The Free-Silver Issue Was Also | Discussed at Some “ Length. BANKERS AS MONEY USERS. Four Purposes to Which They Give Their Afttention—A Cotton Standard Suggested. Hon. James G. Maguire, Democratic nominee for Congressman in the Fourth Congressional District, addressed his con- stituents on the issues of the campaiga at own hands, because the secret ballot gives every man a chance to cast his vote accord- ing to his own convictions. . “The demonetization of silver was an invasion of the people’srights,’” said Judge Maguire. “If the Congress of the United States had passed a law decreeing that the people should no longer use woolen cloth- ing it would not have been any more an invasion of the people’s rights. But just suppose for a moment that the cotion standard had been thus_established, and we were now engaged in acampaign of agitation with the avowed determination of securing a return to the double stand- ard of wool and cotton, you would see cotton-buzs rising up all over the country and denouncing the acts of those wno be- lieve in wool as anarchists who are assail- ingjv the vested rights of capital.” 5 udge Maguire gave it as his opinion that the political revolution of 1892, which carried Grover Cleveland into the White House and gave the Democrals a majority in Congress was caused by the hard times and labor troubles that brought discon- tent amoug the people. : There was considerable merriment among Judge Mayuire’s hearers when he said trat with all due regard to the offi- cial head of the Nation, he bad never brought himself to think or say that a Democratic President was elected in 1892. He said that in the issuance of bonds as has been done recently, the President of the United States is exer ng the power of taxing the peop'e, 8 power which when exercised by a Kinz of Engiand caused a revolution in that country 200 years ago. He predicted a peaceful revolution by means cf tbe ballot in this country so soon as the people cf the United States understand the subject the same as he doe: In dealing with the so-called 53-cent dollar that is talked of Judge Maguire said: “Believers in the 53-cent dollar say Union Hall, on Howard street, last night. The meeting was called under the | uspices of the Labor Silver Organization | of San Francisco, and in front of the hall was a big banner setting forth an ardent belief { ver and the truth that employers have no right to hamper or assume to control the consciences of employes. Above the rostrum was a streamer bear- ing the name of W. J. Bryan, beneath which was the legen | LABOR Is TEE LEVER THAT MovEs THE WORLD. The meeting was large, enthusiastic and | demonstrative, every point made by the speakers being greeted with applause. W. J. Lawlor, chairman of the Cali- fornia Silver Campaign Committee, called | the meeting to order with the remark that | some people had said that the laboring | men of the country were deserting the | Democratic party, and he and his asso- ciates desire to show that this is not true. He said: *‘Unton Hal! has been rented by our organization aud will be placed at the disposal of the laboring classes during the remaindar of the campaign, thus giv- ing them an opportunity to discuss the status of public affairs in their own way and to their own satisfaction.” P. H. McCarthy, a representative work- ingman, a carpenter by trade, was intro- duced as chairman of the evening and kept his hearers laughing for half an hour by his sarcastic expressions of sympathy for Mark Hanna in his efforts to improve the condition of the laboring classes. Tl.e speaker was interrupted by the ap- pearance of two marching campaign ciubs, who came into the hall bearing banners and torches, preceded by a mnoisy drum corps. After declaring that California once t Mr. Hanna’s miners from starving, McCarthy introduced Judge Maguire, vhile the band plaved “Hail to the Chief,” and the audience rose to him in greeting. Judge Maguire opened bis address with a giowing -tribute to the good works of | e and judicious labor organizations. | He said that he had at ail times given aid | jo the efforts of the workingmen of the ‘ ntry, organized and unorganized, in the Y'ruggle to improve the condition of the boring ciasses. I have stood ever as Istand now, bat- tling against usurpation of the natural rights oi the masses and insisting that tuere shall be equal opportunities to ail, special privileges to none,’’ said Judee Maguire, and the audience applauded. The speaker denied that the Demo- cratic party had endeavored to make a class issve in this campaign, and said that if anybody had thrown down the gauntlet uesit had been the Republicans. regard Judge Maguire read from Auditorium speech, wherein ocratic procession in Chicago was to Coxey’s army after it had 7ashington. ation from Thomas Jefferson to that a poor man, though rags, if honest, is the equal of the proudest aristocrat in the land, though wrapoed in the rich robes of regal gran- | deur, called forth applause. Judge Maguire said that while he pro- posed to speak mainly of the silver issue, there were other subjects to whicu he it it a duty to call the attention of his | hearers. Tihe most important that came | to his mind was the plank in the Demo- | cr platform which brotests against government by injunction. He said that | was & new invention to break down | e rights of the people. He described | how injunctions were issued out of the | United States couris and szid that & man | sted under such a proceeding, if hs | souid demand a trial by jury, would be id that no jury trial would be allowed for violating Judge-made law, and there- fore the Jadge would arbitrarily broceed to act as Judge and executioner, carrying | out his own edicts without regard to the rights of the people. At this point an amusing episode inter- rupted the regular course of the meeting by some one in the rear of the hall shout- ing out: Give us something about Grover Cleve- 1.7 : space of half a breath and then re. plied: “Mr. Cleveland is not a factorin this campaign. [Laughter.] I gave my opin- | ion of Mr. Cieveland and his policy when as a member of the committee on plat- form I voted against indorsing that polis Applause.] But, as I before remarked, | Mr. Cleveland cuts no figure in this fight, and I have no further words of censure for him at this time.” [Applause.] Referring to the big railroad strike of 1894, in which Eugene V. Debs tigured so promirently, Judge Maguire read irom ihe Federal Reporter toillustrate what he characterized as usurpation on the part of United States Judge Jenkins when he issued an mjunction forbidding railroad employes from quitting the employ of the receiver appointed by the court, whether with or without notice. The speaker ap- pealed to all workingmen to arise and condemn that Kind of Judge-made law. He said. tbat Justice Harland of the United States Supreme Court, in a dissent- | - opinion, had denounced Judge Jen- the king' action more severely than Chicago convention bad done. Touching the claim that bankers are the only men who understand the money question, Judge Maguire said: “The tiue function ot money is that it shali be used | as a medium of exchange. That is the| way money is used by the people, and the | people are competent to judge for them- selves what kinds of money shall be used for their purposes. Now bankers do not use money as a medium of exchange. Bankers have four uses for money, namely, for hoarding, for. speculation, to deposit for obtaining credit or for lending. Then who shall decide what kinds of money be provided for the uses of the peo- I say that the people themselves 1l decide.” udge Maguire dwelt with considerable warmth on the mooted question as to whether any employers hac shown a dis- position to coerce their employes for the purpose of helping to elect the Republi- can nominee for the Presidency. He said that no matter whether such reports were irue or mot, voters have the powsr in their 1dge Muguire paused in his speech for | that the remonetization of silver will | help the silver - mine owners. How can that be? Their silver is worth 53 cents now, and if the proposed re- | monetization is not to raise that value how in the doctrine of free coinage of | are they to be benefited? There nusi be | a mistake somewhere in thic statement of | the proposition. If the value of their { silver will be doubled there will be no 53- cent dollar, and if there is to be a 53-cent | dollar then the silver-mine owners have nothing to gain.” { Judge Maguire combatted the theory | tuat the silver standard was the cause of | industrial_ depression in Mexico and | China. “Labor depends on intelligence, organization and political power for its protection,”” said the speaker, and the ap- plause was cordial. He compared the statement that the silver standard was the cause of hard times in any country to the theory of one of his friends that p.ug hats and suspenders are the moving influ- ences that control civilization. In conclusion Judge Maguire related some rosy reports of Democratic acces- sions throughout the State. of California, with a few straws from New York, Mich: igon, Massachusetts, Kentucky and Texas. The meeting adjourned with three cheers for Bryan, Muguire and free silver. BUDD WILL NOw STUMP \, [ The Governor Decides to Make Speeches on Behalf of His Party. He Will Speak in San Francisco and in Other Cities Throughout the State. Governor James H.Budd is to stump | the State in behalf of the Democratic party | during the present campaign. He will speak in San Francisco and in various other cities throughout the State. He arrived from Sacramento yesterday morning, and after attending meetings of | the Yosemite Commission and the Regents | of the University of California, went into secret conference at the California Hotel | with Chairman Alvord of the Democratic State Central Committee, Gavin McNab, E. P. Troy and Judge Lawler. Thissecret meeting lasted for more than an hour. Campaign matters were discussed, and among other things Governor Budd prom- ised to take an active part in the cam- paign. He agreed to deliver addresses in San Francisco ana elsewhere, under the auspices of the State Central Conymittee. On Baturday night he will address the students of Stanford University and the University of California at Metropolitan Hall, under the auspices of the Silver Campaign committee.

N AID OF THE LITTLE CHILDREN Financial Success of the Youths’ Directory Festival. Replete With Many Fraternal, Social and Musical y Attractions. FATHER CROWLEY IS PLEASED Letter-Carriers’ and Police Captains’ Watch Cont:sts End With the Fair To-Night. The attendence at the festival in Armory Hall in aia of the Youths’ Di- rectory was as large as ever last evening, and the social and financial features of the affair went band in hand to success. Last evening was the ‘‘American booth night home’” and the following ladies were the entertainers: Mrs. J. C. Roberts, Miss A. Fennel, Miss F. O’'Brien, Mrs. C. McCarthy, Mrs. Thomas Slattery, Miss N. Riley, Mrs. Schmitt, Mrs. M. Ryan, Miss M. Connolly, Mrs. F. O’Connell, Mrs. { Thomas McBride, Mrs. H. Lancke, Mrs. D. F. Kenny and Miss M. H. Gang. The regular entertainment was well re- ceived and the performers were loudly ap- plauded. Ed Herrin and Miss Lotue Williams of the Grand Opera-house opened the programme with one of their specialties and were recalled several times. Miss H. I. Roney gave a vocal solo. She was followed by Miss Ida Wyatt, who performed a novelty in a rope dance. A pleasing vocal solo was ren- dered by Mrs. Kenny and she gave way to Miss Madeline Cashman in a fancy dance. Miss M. Georgiani officiated at the piano. Life in the booths was spirited in the ex- treme, and the auctioneersdid so well that several suggested that they would make a success in real life in this calling. There was no end of fun in the '49 camp, where make-believe ‘cowboys, miners, Spanish beauties and gamblers held sway, with all the mimic surrounding of the days of old. No mining camp was ever complete with- out its burro or doukey, and this camp is no exception. When the camp opened it required the united strength Rt men to carry the gray long-eared specimen of stubbornness up the stairs. Henry Lang, George Knox, J. Christensen and T. P. Crowley performed the feat, and they still bear the marks of the brute’s four feet. The little beast will be carried down- stairs at 11:30 o’clock to-night, and the crowd will wait to see the tun, The police captain competition for the gold watch which will be awarded to the most popular captain of police is still as spirited as ever. Captain Dunlevy last evening was in the lead with about 3300 votes, but Captain Spillane was only 600 behind, with Captain Wittman in on a close third. Over 20,000 votes have been sold and just before the contest closes at 10:45 o’clock to-night these votes will come in by the thousands. No one knows how the contest will go. The letter carriers’ contest for a gold watch is no less interesting, tor over 6000 votes have been sold. The votes last night stood as follows: L. Nunan 389, A. Reed 331, C. Gillier 193, J. O'Connor 124, P. Whelan 105, C. Wisewell 106, T. J. Mahoney 100, W. W. O'Neill 102, F. Tyorl 115. The contest will close to-nizht at 10 o’clock sharp. The festival will close this evening after a most successful run since September 24. It was planned by Father Crowley as a means of raising money for the Youths’ Directory. Itisexpected the armory hall will be crowded to the doors, but nobody minds a jam in a worthy cause. A special orchestra, under the leadershipof T. P. Crowley, will render operatic and popular selections. BARNES AT BERKELEY. A Stirring Speech to a Large Audlence. BERKELEY, CaL., Oct. 13.—The largest and most enthusiastic Republican rally of the campaign in Berkeley was held to- night in Shattuck Hall. General W. H. L. Barnes addressed an audience of 800 ! people, who were loud and frequent in their applause whenever vital 1ssues of the campaign were touched upon. In a few remarks Chairman Metcalf pre- sented General Barnes to the audience, who gave a stirring address of an hour's duration. The speaker then entered into a statisti- cal review of the silver question beginnin, with the act of 1873, and tracing its his- tory until to-day. Reference was made to the decline in value of the silver dollar which took place under the Bland, Allison and the Sherman acts, and Genera! Barnes told of a certain San Francisco bank which had refused to take any more silver except on special dcposit, because it had in its vault half a barrel of silver dollars which were bought from the Gov- ernment four years ago, and which have be n lying there ever since because they could not be disposed of. “Bryan was nominated by a speech,” continued General Barnes, “and not be- cause he was the man of the masses. He went to the convention asa proxy, as a reporter, as an onlooker, and he wasnamed for the Presidency of the United States before he went away. This man Bryan, who travels from one side of the country to the other breeding hatred between man and man, friend and friend, should re- ceive no more recognition from us than a horse hitched to a cart.”” e FATHER YORKE’S DENIAL. He Does Not Want Rector Keane's Position. Rev. P. C. Yorke emphatically denies that he has been directly or indirectly suggested as the successor ot Bishop Keane, rector of the Catholic university of Washington, lately deposed by the ‘ope. - llc)eev. Father Yorke says he 1s not a can- didate for the position for the reason that none but Rishops are eligible for such a situation. His denial is emphatic, and he adds that the ambition for such a piace by any person other than a Bishop would be ridiculous. e e—— WOODMEN OF THE WORLD. Golden Gate Camp No. 64 Gives a Grand House Warming. The auditorium of the Native Sons’ building contained 1800 seats Monday even- ing and all but a dozen were filled by 8:30 o’clock last night at the entertainment given by Golden Gate Camp No. 64, Wooa- men of the World. ‘ The occasion for the entertainment was the celebration of the removal of the camp from Alcazar building to Shasta, the larg- est Lall in the Native Sons’ building. This camp, which numbers over 500 members, found its quarters too small and was forced to move. M. T.. Moses, past head consul of the order, delivered a short address of wel- come, after which the following pro- gramme was successfully carried out, lhcl numbers being very meritorious: Song, *‘Angels’ Serenade,” Miss Ella Donlon, accompanied by R. B. Howell (Vlmoncello) and Miss Maher (piano); recitation, “Lasca,’” Wil- liam Chambers; specialties, Dr. W. H. Sie- berst; an Australian story, Miss Alice Sorrells; «“]1 Bacejo,” by request (ATditi), Mme. M. E. Hal- pruner; barytoue solo, selected, C.

H. Desmond; song and dance, Miss Claire Fex, accompanied iss Muller; selections, musical glasses, Professor Wimn/m Westin. At the close of the entertainment the chairs were removed from the main floor and there was dancing until a late hour. —————————— AT THE CHUTES. Progress of the Exciting Relay Race Now Taking Place. The second night of the relay race at the chutes the attendance was fair in spite of the fog, the lovers of cycling seeming to find it no inconvenience. The race be- tween J. J. Van Dyne of the C. C. C. and Guy Frost of the 8. F. R. C. was a close one, Van Dyne being the first to cover the five miles in 10 min. 40 4-5 sec. Guy Frost of the 8. F. R. C. finished in 10 min. 47 1-5 sec. Competition between the clubs for the schutes trophy”’ is animated, and after the last race next Sunday afternoon the silver cup will be awarded. The riders programmed to start to-night are Frost and Olsen, but this may be changed, as ¥rost took Sternbefg’s place last night. TWO TICKETS REJECTED, Registrar Hinton Is Busy Weed- ing Out Political Para- sites. Madison Babcock Will Run Inde- pendantly for Superintendent of Public Instruction. Registrar Hinton was deluged yesterday with petitions, protests and withdrawals from ambitious politicians who want or do not want places on the official ballot. The most voluminous communication received was from Madison Babcock, the present Superiniendent of Public Instruc- tion, who desires to run as an independ- ent candidate. His petiion for a place on the official ballot was accompanied by 18,000 signatures, and the announcement was made that he bad 8000 more in re- serve to be presented to-day. D. ). Toohy, in & letter to the Regis- trar, said that he understood his name was in the petition of the Taxpayers’ Water party as a candidate for Police Judge. He asked that he be taken off the list at once. As the ticket of the party mentioned has been rejected asa whole | by the Registrar, Mr. Toohy is in no dan- ger of defeat. William Tomeky presented his petition, accompanied by a sufficient number of names, té be allowed a place on the offi- cial pallot asan independent candidate for Justice of the Peace. Over 3000 names accompanied the peti- tion of the United Labor party that came in yesterday afternoon, and the following were named as an auditing committee: Thomas B. Roche, Jeremiah Murphy, John W. Emmerton, J. Smiley and %Vu- liam Horner. P. A. Dolan filed the petition of an al- leged party called the Free Silver and Protection party, but as such names as Billy de_Pomp and Pat Crowley, King of all the Russias, were signed, Registrar Hinton rejected the ticket, The Registrar also rejected the certifi- cate of nomination for member of Assem- bly in the Thirty-ninth District offered for filng by P. M. Tuley, because it was not signed by electors of the district to the number of 3 per cent of the total vote polled there at the last election. 2 The following election officers were ap- pointed by the Election Commissioners yesterday : THIRTY-FIFTH DISTRICT.

Has Spent Ten Thousand Dol lars in Exploring the Property. EXPENSIVE SHAFT NECESSARY The Sam: Syncicate Recently Pur- chased Big Properties Near Salt Lake. A deal 18 on for the purchase by a big London syndicate of the Amador Queen mine of Amador County. For nearly three months now the United States Exploration Company, composed of some of the largest capitalists of London, presided over by a director of the Bank of England, has had an option on the property ata purchase price, it is said, of $150,000. During this time the company has spent $10,000 in exploring and developing about the mine, with a view to learning its pros- pects. The agent, having completed an inspection, will, it is understood, submit a favorable report to headquarters at Lon- don, with the information that about $100,- 000 will be required to sink a shaft to the depth of 1000 feet, at which level the best- paying ore may be obtained. At present the greatest depth reached is between 300 and 400 feet. C. C. Parsons, a prominent attorney of Denver, Colo., who is out here in the in- terests of the London syndicate, was seen vesterday at the Palace Hotel, and, while he confirmed the information, added that the transfer is not, of course, definitely as- sured. He has visited the new Salt Lake roperty, the Butte mines, and has only ust returned from Amador County. His tour was simply for the purpose ot seeing how things were progressing. He exypresses surprise at the lack of in- terest taken 1n the mother lode by San Francisco capitalists, and declares that if Denver had any such prospects aimost at her very doors the country would be pierced with hundreds of 1000-foot shafts. The core of the mother lode, he asserts, 1s down from 1000 to 1400 feet, and most of the mines have only been scratched near the surface. NEW TO-DAY. HON. GEORGE A. KNIGHT, CHARLES BUNDSCHU Esq., 0.

How Lost and How Regained ! PERF ‘What is there in all nature that calls for greater admiration than a perfect specimen of physical manhood? He com- mands the admiration of all kinds and classes regardless of sex. Why is this the case? Itis undoubtedly due to the fact that there is a comparative scarcity of physically perfect men. All men are as a rule born equa! in the matter oi physical heaith and strength, yet how unequal in these attributes is the standing of mdny compared with their fellow-men before their life’s race is a quarter or a third run. The cause is a common one—unfortunately too common. The affliction responsible for the shattered and broken-down con- dition both physically and mentally of so many men, both young and middle-aged, is Nervous Debility. It is eitherthe result of youthful indiscretions or of living at the pace that kills. Excessive indul- gences, mental worry and anxiety, all producing a constant strain and drain on the nervous system, soon undermine the strongest constitution. The result is manifest in the many physical and men- tal wrecks met with every day in life. Where health and strength, both mental and physical, should exist if the body had been well cared for there is seen instead a man afflicted with that most horrible of all diseases, Nervous Debility, with its train of attending evils. Itis manifested inthe followinz symptoms: Weakness of body and mind, brain dullness, dizziness, loss of memory, a wandering mind, lack of energy and confidence, pains in the head and back, dimness of vision, discontent, despondency, an aversion to society, dread of impending danger, ete. If you are suffering from Nervous Debility, if your manly powers are waning or failing YiU CAN BE RESTORED T0 PHYSICAL AHD MENTAL HEALTH that eminent speci DOCTOR SWEANY.
