Governor of California._Sir: delivered at Union Hall Monday evening as reported in the morning papers occurs the following passage: This noonday parade is ontrageous. What is it for ? What is it for ? Thank God they can’t crawl into the ballot-booth and see how you vote. Turn out, all of you. Turn out, I say—the more the merrier. You've got a wife and little ones at home.

Reed of Maine?” It is claimed that this evening fully 100 telegrams were forwarded to Stockton, re- auesting Reed to give this city one visit. The eminent statesman has scores of warm political friends in this locality, and if Sacramento were incinded in his li<t of appointments he would be accorded an en- thusiastic welcome—one that would assure him that Sacramento County was_for Mc- Kinley, protection and Thomas B. Reed. - LEMOS AT WATSONVILLE. Portuguese- Americans Hear Campaign Issues ably Discussed. WATSONVILLE, CarL, Oct. 28.—The first of a series of Republican meetings to be held each night during the rest of the week in this city was called to orderat the opera-house to-night. Hon. Frank I. Lemos addressed the TPortuguese voters and was met by a crowded honse. Prior to the meeting the Pajaro brass band, composed entirely of young Portuguese, discoursed patriotic airs throughout the principal streets. The meeting was called to order by A. M. Martin. He introduced Mr. Lemos, who talked interestingly and pointedly to his countrymen in the Portuguese lan- guage. The speaker touched upon the present price of wheat as controverting Bryan's arguments that agricultural products could not rise under the gold standard and showed that supply and demand regulated the price of these products. Mr. Lemos dwelt at some length on the silver question, and told his hearers that if all the ills that Bryvan speaks of were due to the *“‘crime of '73,”” they ought to be grateful at least to the demonetization of silver for what has happened to the wage-earner. He guoted statistics on this point and showed that the per capita waze was in- creased from $302 in 1873 to $485 in 1890. The principal industry of the farmers in this neighborhood being the raising of topic, and as a result many of his auditors have changed their views te- night, and will vote for a policy whichen- courages the industries of the country. BUDD SCORED AT SAN RAFAEL. General Barnes Handles the BState’s Executive Without Gloves. SAN RAFAEL, Car., Oct. 28.—General Barnes spoke here to-night to a very large audience. He answered Governor Budd, who spoke last night, and he did not mince his words. He regretted that a man in the high posi- tion of the Governor could bring himselt to speak such words of the free men who would join in Saturday’s parade. The man who said that those em- ployes and laborers were cowards and liars must be both himself. White's speeches, too, had surprised and pained him, but perbaps he was doing the best he could in his environment, for | ‘White rightly belonged to the true Dem- ocracy and not to the Populists and cranks who were pulled out of the old party by them. And Buad abusing Cleveland, a man whose shoes he is not worthy to untie! Mr. Barnes deplored this bitter, vicious, unreasonable, cowardly, destructive cam- paign. “We have never had the like of it,” said he, *and I hope we will never have an- other. Whoever heard before of a candi- date for the greatest office saying, ‘Of course if I am elected there will be a paniec.” I “What 1s panic? We had one taste of it in 1893, and it cost the country $3,000,- 000,000. When we get another what will become of us?” R Miss AxNA H.SHAW will speak at People’s party meeting, Union Hall, Howard, near 3d, Thursday eve., Oct. 29. Everybody welcome,* PR T SACRAMENTANS CHEER BUDD. Shout for the Governor, but Not for Ora- tor Bryan. SACRAMENTO, Car., Oct. 28.—James H. Budd was greeted this evening by one of the largest assemblages that ever gath- ered within the confines of the old pavil- ion. It was largely composed of leading and enthusiastic Republicans, who had gathered there to do honor to California’s Governor and not to the political prin- ciples he advocated. ‘When the Governor was introduced by Gillis P. Doty, who officiated as chairman, it was fully five minates before the cheer- ing ceased. Then arose the wild whoop of the little band, sixty strong, of Sacra- mento [roquois braves, and again the audience arose en masse and cheered for Budd. ‘When the name of Bryan was uttered it was different. A few “shrill yells from the Iroquois were answered by a feeble cheer from the Oak Park delegation and straggling yells throughout tbe hall. In speaking of Hon. Thomas B. Reed, the Governor said he was a statesman, the ablest statesman of the day, and an honest man, but the one man in the United States to-day who opposed everything that California wanted, d he protested against any attempt which might be made by this able orator to dictate 10 the people of the Siate.

He will ‘be met by the reception committee at Niles. | This party will also include the ladies who are to entertain Miss Reed during her stay here. ?\m g ittie Wants to Vote at Redwood. REDWOQOD CITY, Car., Oct. 28.—Alfred J. Marcus, who was a candidate two years ago for Railroad Commissioner from this district, is anxious to vote. He went to Europe for bis health last May and did not return until this month, too late to be glnced on the great register. On August he instructed his attorney in fact to have his name registered. This the clerk de- clined to permit, holding that Marcus must be personally present or at least fur- nish his own sffidavit and not that of his attorney. Late this evening a writ of mandate to compel the clerk to put Marcus’ name on the register was issued. The matter will come up before Judge Buck to-morrow morning. The outcome 13 awalted with great interest. P e Alford Sends Instructions. VISALIA, CaL., Oct. 28.—W. H. Alford, manager of the Democratic campaign in California, under date - of October 26, has sent a personal letter to the most prominent member of each County Cen- tral Gommittee throughout the State, warning him to havereliable menon hand to see that the total vote of Demacratic and Populist electors are carried outto the credit of one set of electors, instead of two as the tally sheet calls for. oA The Petatuma Campaign. PETALUMA, Can, Oct. 28. — The Republicans of Petaluma will hold their final rally here on Saturday night next, when Judge Barham will speak. The women suffragists will closs their portion of their campaign on Friday night, when Mrs. Carrie C. Catt will appear before the public with convincing arguments.

RIVERSIDE, CaL., Oct. 28.—The elec- | tric light plant, which has supplied this city with light for years past and which is located several miies from this city, was almost totally destroyed by flood-waters during the heavy storm yesterday. The plantis situated in the bed of a canyon, and the rushing waters undermined the building and machinery to such an extent that it will require $5000 to repair the aamage.

Susan Garvin, the young and pretty daughter of well-to-do parents who re- side in Btockton, died in this City Tues- day evening under very peculiar circum- stances. A She came to 8an Francisco from her home in Stockton about two weeks ago and went to live with new-found friends on Bartlett street. She was apparentiy healthy, and without known cause sud- denly tookto her bed and diea. The suddenness of the young woman's death was reported to the police and Detectives Silvey and Egan were detailed to look into the case. After an investigation they decided that deatn was due to natural causes and so re- ported. That would probably have been theend of the case, had not a young woman, a Iriend of the deceased, called on Lieutenant Burke of the Seventeenth- street station and volunteered her opinion that the young woman’s death was due to other causes. i Owing to the statement made by the young woman the case has reported to the Coroner and will be thoroughly in- vestigated. { ——————— * PEOPLE'S party mass-meeting, Union Hall, Good music, good singing.

A TREAT FOR SAUIALITANS. Mock Ecg:gem:nt to Bs Fought Between the Warship and Torp:do-Boats. ABOARD THE ) Ux~1TED STATES BATTLE-SHIP OREGON, MoONTEREY Bay, Oct. 28. f If Captain Howison were going to heave his ané¢hor and steam overland to shell General Weyler out of Havana the officers and men of the battle-ship Oregon woula not be drilling more indeh,\guubly than. they have since the ship pat to sea from San Franasco Bay last Sunday morning. The men pever know when they are going to be ordefred 1o fall in, but when the order does come (and it usually comes with the suddenness of an alarm gong, and some- times with the same shock) the marines and the sailors grab their pieces and rush to their stations with an alacrity that clearly shows that they take a real interest in the business of preparing for war in time of peace. They also take a real pride in keeping the pride of the navy in fine condition. As the Oregon swings arace- fully in Monterey Bay to-day in fifteen fathoms of water and sixty fathoms of chain to its anchor, it is almost the same spick and span ship, clean asa hound’s tooth, that it was when it rested like a duck on the waters at the Union Iron Works. The tramp of feet, the heavy thud of the butts of rifles as they fall 10 the deck at order arms, the sonnd of the drum or the bugle’s clear blast are heard on the ship almost continually. The Oregon escaped perhaps the worst part of the storm Monday night, but en- countered enough of it to let the officers and crew see how the battle-ship would behave in the green fields where the sea- horses graze or lash their white manes furiously. This, after it was all safely over, was an unexpected piece of good luck. The commanders of naval vessels, no more than merchantmen, will steer out of their course to meet a gale of wina and waves as high as hills, but the new battle-ship having shown that it will have to be a much heavier storm than played havoc with the sister ship Indiana to canse the Oregon to feel any serious effects, its officers were pleased to see how stiffly it stood up in the blow. Daring the third watch and about 1 o'clock the seas came over the decks aft. One man saved himself from being washed over- board from the main deck by catching the rail on the farther side. The Oregon was built as a coast defense vessel more than a seagoing ship, but its experience on its first cruise shows thac it will take a very hard blow and a heavy sea to cause even any really serious discomfort petween decks. 1t is claimed that it would be im- possible for the battle-ship to “‘turn tur- tle,” so that the people may know that the Oregon as it stands to-day, costuing them not less thau $3,878,200, is safe in any sea with plenty of water under its bottom. ‘When it first pnt to sea on the present cruise Captain Howison, remembering the recent experience of the Indiana, bad the torward and after 13-inch guns lashed with 7){-inch hawsers to the forecastle and quarter-deck bitts, =o that they would not swing and play smash with tnings. There was no necessity for lashing the guns, but he did it to experiment as to how it could be effectually and quickly accomplished in case of necessity. The turret locks are different from those of the sister ship, and it is claimed they are strong enough to hold them fast under the same circamstances. Captain Howison to-day stated that he had come out to practice and trv the ship at sea, to have all the drills and exercises at sea and pnuenlul{ to run the main engines; that the ship was forty-eignt hours under way and the engines never stopped except by signal from the deck, and that was not given except in the exer- cige of *‘man overboard.” In connection with this exercise l!nng story was told in tbe wardroom mess ‘at the expense of Admiral “Old Dick” Me: Aboard ship there is a broad distinetion between rs and men. Admiral Mead once fell overboard from the flagship. The cry at once up, “Man overbvard!” Tie bluff old admiral was swimming his best and sputtering the salt water from his mouth.” He found room enough to shont back to the man who gave the alarm: g ‘“You lie, you lie, — you; it’s an officer!” Captain Howison said the guns and all the appliances and evergthing aboard ship work splendidly—that he "had no trouble in any way. If the Oregon were to be re- builg, he said, he could suggest some im- provements. He never saw a ship’'screw, ofticers and men settle down to drill and business quicker than the Oregon’s. This is a high compliment. Captain H. L. Howison is the ranking senior captain in the navy. He has had long years ot ser- vice. When Admiral Walker retires under the age limit next March a vacaney will be created and Captain Howison will be promoted to a commodore. He will then vrobably be removed to some other st tion. & For the reason that it was found ad- visable not to lower the steam cutter it was decided not to have a battalion drill on shore to-day. This mi'itary spectacle and the unique naval oneof an attack by torpedo-boats nn the ship at night will be reserved for Sausalito, when the battle- ship drops anchor there on thereturn next Friday or Saturday. It will lay off Sausa- lito several days. The attacks by torpedo- boats will be made something after the following fashion: Two or three steam cutters wiil be sent out. They will hide in the night and taketheirtime. Sentinel boats will be stationed at a certain dis- tance around the Oregon. The steam cut- ters will try to come within the sentinel line. These cutters represent the torpedo- boats of the enemy. The object is to catch them before they get within a cer- tain distance of the ship. Ii they get within the line they flash a blue light and are supposed: to have won, and the Ore- gon, officers and men, to have been blown into a thoisand fragments by a torpedo. If the rentinel boat sees them first they burn ared light and the torpedo-boats are supposed to have been captured and harmless. As the programme now isto sail for Ban Francisco to-morrow evening this exercise will harly be held here. This morning the marine guard had a physical exercise with guns and an ex- tended order drill, in command of Cap- tain Berryman and Lieutenant Davis. The battalion drill was under small arms. General quarters were abandoned. The big turrets of the 13-inch and 8-inch guns are working more smoothly and becoming more responsive with the practice. The crew is learning to handle the 6-pounders of the secondary battery as easily as a small arm. From the present efficiency of the practice the Oregon will be fit to engage a whole fleet of Spain or the Sul- tan ot Turkey when it again swings to its anchor in 8an Franecisco Bay. X In the general quarters drill last night the ship was ready for battle in 8 minutes and 55 seconds. This is considered excel- lent time considering the practice the crew heshad. The crew was sounded to general quarters at 8:37. The men rolled up their hammocks, stored them in their Proper places, got to their stations, cast oose the guns and had them loaded in the time mentioned. The ammunition must come up by elevators from the magezines far below in the ship. The searchlight drill at 7:30 o’clock last evening brought out almost the entire vopulation of Monterey and a _good pro- ortion of that of Pacitic Grove. The Four powerful searchlights were in overa- tion at the same time. The Ardois svs- tem of signaling by coiored electric lights was flashing aloft on the military mast, in charge of Ensign R. McLean, who is sig- nal officer. One of the signals flashed by the lights and successiully read was this Send boats to receive ammunition for 1500 military rifles and transport it to the Oregon, iying off Monterey. This message embodied all the different codes used with the Ardois system, which has been adopted by the navy compara. tively recently. The statement that one of the search- lights picked np a pelican resting on the water and followed him while flving through the night illustrates the facility with which the searchlights are operated and their efficiency in picking up and fol- lowing a torpedo of an enemy fired at the | Oregon. When a torpedo is picked up under these circumstances the six-pound Hotsch- kiss rapid-firing guns open fire on it or its line of direction with the purpose of ex- ploding it before it strikes the ship. This requires a quick and steady fire, as a torpedo can travel thirty miles an hour. Being safely anchored last night the captain turned in early for the first time in sixty hours and slept as sweetly as a new-born babe until the sooth- ing voice of the siren was sounded at 7 o'clock this morning to see if its throat was clear. It was. To-day the regular drills went on as usual. This afrernoon a gangway was lowered alt and there was a swarm of vis- itors from Monterey and Pacific Grove on deck and between decks. Earlv this morning the mercury feil to 46 deg. The bay was smooth, the weather bright and clear, and there was a considerable swell outside. OUT IN FULL WAR PAINT ‘The American Railway Union Going Earnestly Into Pol- itics. It Will Bitterly Fight Its Old Enemies and Work Hard for Its Friends. The American Railway Union proposes to make itself felt in politics this year. The members of local Union No. 345 have recenily been canvassing the various can- didates for municipal offices for the pur- pose of ascertaining their various quali- fications for the office to which they aspire. Those who during the railway men’s times of trouble manifested a friendly spirit to the cause of labor will be wel and sabstantially remombered next Tues- day. The others will be remembered, too. 'i"he menrbers met last evening to dis- cuss the political situation. Several other trades umons had to participate in the debate and seven labor bodies were rep- resented. > The meeting was strictly secret and candidates were commented upon freely. After considerable discussion a preamble and resolutions were adopted. In the former, Superior Judge John Hunt was denounced as being too favorably dis- osed toward the big railway corporations. n conclusion it appeals to all labor organizations to assist in defeating Judge Hunt and Carroll Cook at the coming election. The resolutions are as 10180 : Resolved, That we carnestly indorse the can- didacy of the Hon. Horace Philbrook for the office of judge of the Superior Courtin this City and County, and that we earnestly appeal to all our feliow-workmen to join with us in securing the election of a true and consistent iriend of the working peopie—a man who is not afraid to stand (enlenq and firmly b; his clients when they are in troubie, an whose disbarment by the Supreme Court of this State was a monstrous piece of judicial operation.

In a second resolution the A. R. U. takes a slap at the Populists in this way: ‘WHEREAS, The late alleged Populist conven- tion of this City and County sold out the entire legislative ticket to the corrupt political bosses, and in doing so left the Populists and their iriends among the working people with- out a ticket that they could wnolly support; ond whereas, there are four Populists upon the legisiative ticket who have been nominated independently by petition, to wit: Hon.

Resolved, That we heartily indorse the can- didsacy ot the Hon, Clinton Hutchins for State Senator in the Twenty-first Districr. Resolved. That we earnestly support the can- didacy of the Hon. P. L. Archibald for Siate Senator in the Tweniy-tuird Distriet. Resolved, That we indorse the candidacy of F. M. Tuly in _the Thirty-ninth Assembly Dis- trict for member of the Legis!ature. Resolved, That we call upon all of our friends among the workinginen and among tnose who are_engaged upon the transportstion lines, both_upon_the street raiiroads and upon the regular railroads, 1o do all in their power to secure the election of these four men. Resolved, That we denounce the trade by which the Populists’ legislative nominations were turned over to the tender mercies of Buckley and Rainey. Death of J. Z. Davia. Jacob Zeigler vavis, the well-known mem- ber of the firm of Boyd & Davis, capita:ists, died in Philadelphia early yesterday morning. Some time ago Mr. Davis’ friends urged him to make a visit to his native city, believing that the change would be a benefit to his healith, as he hadbeen sorely depressed since the death of his wife, which occurred on September 16.
