4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1896. THE CAMPAIGH IN CALIFORNIA Kern County Republicans in Mass-Meeting at Bakersfield. Financial and Tariff Questions Discussed by a Trio of Orators. “REED DAY” AT LOS ANGELES. All Southern California Will Greet Maine’s Favorite Son To-Day. BAKERSFIELD, CaL., Oct. 26.—One of the best meetings of ‘the campaign wae held here this afternoon by the Repub- licans. The Democrats had a meeting billed for to-day as well, and in order not to conflict the Republicans held theirs in the afternoon. It was an open-air meet- ing and was largely attended. General Chipman, Colonel Eddy and J. C. Camp- bell were the speak General Chipman was first introduced, and began by referring to the fruit indus- try of this State and the evil effects of Democratic tariff legislation upon it. He discussed the silver question, showing that the value of the silyer dollar of Mexico was but half that of an American dollar, and saying that it was the intention of the Democrats to turn out an irredeemable silver dollar worth no more than the Mexican. The speaker contended that silver was only a commodity, its value be- ing subject to the same laws as other com- modities, rising or falling with the in- crease or decrease of production. The general went into the history of the American coinage system, how the ratio between silver and gold had been changed by law in order to equalize the commercial and the coinage values. In 1858 a law was passed taking away the legal tender quality of silver, except in amounts of $50r less. He defended the act of 1873 and -denied that it had been clandestively passed. It was before Con- gress for three years, and its purpose was known to every one. No complaint was made until the product of silver increased to such an extent that the mers had to find a new market for their metal. Free coinage, he said, would put no more money in circulation than there was now. ‘What was wanted was confidence. "It was untrue that the fall in silver was the cause of the fall in wheat and other com- modities. That fall was due to over- production and to the law of supply and demand. . The next speaker, J. G. Campbell, be- gan by saying that he believed Americans had too much politics and not enough patriotism. | He had great faith in the good, hard, common-sense of the Ameri- can people. He was a Republican because he believed that the Republican party was in the right and he was proud to belong to the party of honest Abranam Lincoln and that peerless statesman, James G. Blaine. The speaker likened the temptation of the peoble by the apple of tariff reform tothat of Eve by the snake, with like disastrous results. The loudest applause was bestowed upon his reference to foreign immigration and its suppression, something to which the Republican party is pledged. “*After American people are provided for will be time enough,” he said, ‘‘to let any more foreigners come in.”” Colonel Eddy said he believed that the people had made up their minds and it was too late to change them by discussing the general issues. He believed that the people could be depended upon to do their duty with fair-mindedness and intelli- gence. The only guestion was: Which of the candidates could be best trusted to fill the highest position in the gift of the American people. He challenged Mr. ‘Waterhouse, the Populist who was to have spoken tq-night, to tell how free coicage was to start the factories of this country. Colonel Eddy said that he would not accuse Bryan of being an anarchist, but he was treading very close to the line. o Pl L MRS. CATT AT STANFORD. Reviews the Struggle of Woman for Her Common Rights—Dr. Jordan Favors Equal Suffrage. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., Oct. 26.—Mrs. Carrie Chapman-Catt of New York City delivered a lecture on “Equal Suffrage” to-day in the chapel., Theaudi- ence, which comfortably filled the chapel, was composed mostly of women, but twenty men being present. Dr. Jordanm, in introducing the speaker, said: \ “I .propose to put myself on record as being thoroughly in favor ot equal suf- frage. I have often expressed my views on the subject, although, perhaps, I have never made any formal declaration tothat effect.” Mrs. Catt pointed out the great law of progress which has been upiifting human- ity since the birth of man. “The movement for woman’s suffrage had its beginning in the fourth century,’’ she said. ‘At that time a_ council was called. The wisest men of all Europe at- tended. Among the many questions dis- cussed by this broad-minded assembly was one which now seems ridiculous. It was simply this: Whether a woman ought to possess a soul. Up to this time men were the only ones, according to the popular belief, who had a right to salvation, Simple as this question was there arose violent opposition to the extension of the right of salvation, It was decided that if woman thought as her husband thought she could be saved. “In the eighth century a woman whose husband bad died married agein. She found that husbands believed differently, even on the same subjects. The only course left to her was to get her Bible and learn to read for herself the laws in regard to salvation. This she aid, and others followed her example. The contagion spread. Another council was called to decide whether women ought to learn to read. A small majority decided in their favor. The great faw “of evolution de- manded it, and thus it was tbat women became thinking human beings.’’ Mrs, Catt showed how the right of bal- lot, freedom of thought and speech, as well as independence in religious affairs, were obtained in the eighteenth century. This century she characterized as ‘‘the age of men,”’ in contrast to the nineteenth century, ‘‘the age of women.” She pointed out the many obstacles the move- ment for equal rights had overcome dur- ing the present century. Mrs, Catt closed by strongly urging the young women of the audience to seek the ballot as a great blessing. The young men of the audience were urgea to favor the movement in the coming election. Fraims airi Knight at Santa Barbara. SANTA BARBARA, CAL., Oct. 26.—A grand Republican rally took place here to-night. George A.

SAN JOSE, CaL., Oct. 26.—Professor John N. Schaberle, an astronomer at the Lick Observatory on Mount Hamilton, to- day secured an order from Judge Reynolds airecting County Clerk Pfister to place his name upon the new great register. Pro- fessor Schaberbe on the witness - stand testified that he was an astronomer in the employ of the Lick Observatory, and, un- der orders from the Board of Regents of the State University, sailed for Japan on May 28 in the expedition sent to take ob- servation of the total eclipse of the sun on August 9. He remained away in that capacity until September 30, and on his return it was too late for him to register. After securing the opinion of District Attorney Herrington, D. M. Delmas and Attorneys Bowden and Spencer, counsel in the Parker will case, Judge Reynolds decided that Professor Schaberie was en- titled to vote and directed the County Clerk to place his name upon the great register. In ruling upon the matter the court said: It seems to me that the Regents of the State University had & right to send an employe abroad. Because he could not return in time for the registration was not a voluntary act of his. It was his duty. The State cannot auihor- ize the registration as stated and then author- ize its officers to go abroad and thereby be excluded from the right of registration. The authorization of the registration to be com- menced and closed during his absence would o far unconstitutional as applied to that citizen. County Clerk Pfister at once obeyed the order and the matter will not be appealed. ¥ 1 JOSE’'S WELCOME. Old Pupils of Speaker Reed Will Greet His Arrival.

Oakland and Varsity Football Teams Will Meot on Wednesd 1y, STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car., Oct. 26.—Notwithstanding the rain, which set in here to-day in dead earnest, the foot- ball men, led by Captain Fickert, donned their football suits and wallowed around after the slipvery pigskin in mud above | their ankles. Captain Fickert says that rain 1s not to interfere with practice, even if the men have to teke to bathing suits in order to play. The management has arranged to have the Reliance tean come down Wednesday to play the Varsity men in order to give them extra practice. Fickert is still un- satisfied with the speed of the men in their play, and he is desirous that they play a more snappy game. Freshmen are planning to do some steady practicing from nowon, and 1f all the men who have signified their inten- tion of playing appear a very creditable team should be formed. Up to this time there has appeared little or no desire or interest on the part of the men to make the team efficient. There has been very little real team practice, and Berkeley, with her well-tn?ned freshmen, who are known to have developed considerable team work under Butterworth’s special coaching, is sure to defeat the local freshman team unless there is an imme- diate change in the direction of more team practice.

If Your Drink Is Right. Skinny peoble generally are so, because of their inability to digest the food which is passed from the stomach into the bow- els. The bowel digestion is weakened. Starches of the grains make fat tissue, but if the bowel digsstion is weakened by cof- fee, tobacco, whisky, etc., the person re- mains skinny. Leave off the weakening habits and ase in place of coffee, Postum Cereal, the health coffee. It is made by the Postum Cereal Co., lim., Battle Creek, Mich., entirely of grains and is fattening. It looks like the finest Mocha coffee. Per- sons who care to lay aside their hurtful habits and eat plain well cooked food and some fruit, and drink Postum . will feel a great improvement in & week’stime, Na- tare is a powerful builder if left free to work without drugs and poisons. It should not be forgotten that 80 per cent of the body is liquid, therefore a healthtul liquid is of the greatest neces- sity. Wily grocers sometimes work in cheap imitations of Postum Cereal coffee if the customer will stand it. émflh.dh-..nllm..'rllmlhn..«n[‘;,”*‘n’o* f Hunting " - ¥ For Ladies { Casc settand bosom 3 Watches 1} et s ey thin, not obtru- S gegeeE sive, but just the right size.

FOR JAYOR, JAMES D, PHELAN, Democratic and Non-Partisan Nominee. FOR MAYOR, J0S. 1, DIMOND, Anti-Charter Democratic A Maiden Fair She and respects manly strength, magnetism and a sunny ~ disposition. The man who wins her must have these qualities. They come from a strong vital force which is generated by the electricity in the body. If you . are weak, dull and gloomy it is iricy . because at some time or other you the electric energy which goes to make you attrac- tive in the eyes of fair women. You are only half a man. DR. SANDEN’S ELECTRIC BELT is made especially for such cases. It never fails to kindle the fires anew. All the flush of youth is renewed when it is worn ; life assumes a happier state, and the joy born of magnetic force shines in the eye. . L. L. Jaccard, the San Leandro jeweler, who was cured by Dr. Sanden’s Electric Belt last winter, is a fair specimen of what this wonderful Belt does. He is a magnificent specimen of man- hood and at fifty years of age has the physique and air of a young man. He says, “I believe that I am stronger than any other man of my age. - I am as light on my feet as when I was twenty.” it 1t is not claimed that this famous Belt will make an old man young, but it will make an old man forget his years, and those thousands of young men who feel old it will make feel young again. Everything it does is based on the renewal of nerve force that has been wasted by excesses or otherwise. It will do this.lv{ ng ygu needéit ? e : ead Dr. Sanden’s book, written specially for we.
