THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1896. CHARTER AGAN WAS CERSURED Father Yorke Attackeéd the Merchants’ Associ- “ atien, He Declared That It Has Been Controlled by a Small . Clique. ALSO MADE OTHER CHARGES. One. "of . These Was That Catholic Organizations Have Been Wil- fully Sliglited Recently. Rev. Father Yorke wasadvertised to speak at Metropolitan Hall last evening for the .benefit gf-the Presentation Con- vent on Powellistreet’ on the subject of’ “The Church and Popuiar ‘Education,” Father Yorke spoke, but upon an entirely different subject; His speech wasdirected against the. proposed new charter, the A. P. A, and wound up-with a signed state- ment, which he’ read from a printed-slip and which Js given in tull. Before Father Yorke spoke .thie pupils of the Presenta- tion €onvent played a piano trio, the Misses Devlin gave'a duet and the gradu- ating, class of '97 sang “The Land of the Free.” Father Yorke was introduced.by-John M. Burnett, whopresided. Father Yorke said that ‘these were stirring. times, and therefore he might de excused if "he changed his subject to “Vital Issues of the Hour.” He then said that at public meeting and in public prints he had been held.up as an &wful example of inconsist- ency within the past two days, He spoke on this point for some time. Because a pian had honest opinions and was' not afraid to exvress them he was classed among “the bosses’ henchmen and poirted out ‘to_ an_admiring multitude as among-the banditti about to plunder the City,.he said. ‘The highest issue-of the campaign was whether men and Women shall haye a right to express their opinions without suffering penaities in this City of Saint Fran 2 He had asked what the Merchants’ As- sociation Bad in” gommon with the A. P. P. An mnswer had. been printed to his question which -was “signed.as coming from the Citizens’. Charter Association. He_ would :not cavil about names. ‘The Merchants’ Association and the Citizens’ Charter . Adsociation appeared to” him to be connected: " It would be more honest for the Merchants’ Agsociation to come forward to do dirty work in its own name. The Merchants’ Association sent cut to various -organizations ‘a request to assist in having-the votes to be cast next Tues- day honestly counted. - This request was sent by circular to Gouncit No. 1 of the A" P. A. The answer of the Charter Associa- tion suggested an untruth. The Mer- chants’ Association has geants, and ‘they go back and forth and get the “beetle-browed” to do dirty work. He believed that a cliqué controls the Merchants’ Association in the interest of the A, A, Strange that when the M:rchants’ Association sent out-notices 10the A. A. in reference to securing an honest count the Young Men's Institute was not notified. © The Junior Order of American Mechanics, wirich giffered only from the A. P. A. in the percentage of its members who were naturalized citizens, was -notified, but the League of the.Cross ‘was l¢ft out, despite its very large member- ship. Wiy did the Merchants' Associa- tion discriminate? Every one of his auditors patronized the Merchants’. Assoclation when he or she visited a store of a member of that asso- ciation. It concerned all his hearers to ascertain that the Merchants’ Association, like. Cmsar’s wife, should be above sus- picion. .The Merchants’ Association could ot afford to be led by a cligue of dark- lantern bigets. There were those who-support'the new: charter, which was like a crazy-quilt. They had been talking and had dragged his" name into the c¢ntroversy. He did not object to.being drawn in’if he could have & chance to talk back. H. N..Cle- ment, who spoke at the.charter meeting Thursday night, probably thought that he. (Fatber Yorke) had mrade positively his last appearance Jast Monday night. He {Yorke) had saved a night 10 meet just such a contingency. | . g ‘What Mr. Clement had said concerning an’ intérviews with him (Yorke) %vas not trye.” There was enotigh truth in it.to make double a iie, If Mr. Clement bad calied” on° him (Yorke) it was in his {Clement’s) astral body and he had not seen- him. If Mr. Clemeht wandered aroupd as’ & ghost"he (Yorke) could not be beld responsible. for him.. Butitwould | notbe possible forMr.-Clement to havean interview with him. ‘There were some people svhom no décent'man could afford t0 meet ahd among-such was® H. N. Clemept: -Clemeéns had gone‘into a lodge'| and.had sworn to deprive Catholics-of a chance to earn their living. If he (Yorke) needed any reasqit for opposing the new charter, the fact that H. N. Clement favored.the charter'would bé sufficient for him (Yorke) to oppose it. : Hudelson and _Price and Winthrop, if they could get out of the custody of the Sheriff long enough, might make up a corrmitiee with Glement as a member to tell the people of San Francisco that they did’ not know' énough to govern them- sélves. He had beeh misrepresented concerning what he told the committee of the Charter Awseciation in régard. so his position on the charter:- He had secured adyice from Robert G. Hayne dnd had concluded by reason of that advice that the charter con- tained .discriminative and _restrictive features directed " against Catholics .and" Hebrews. o o The action of the Supreme Court was uncertain.” The court might decide that the . provisions™ concerning the public schools were unconstitutiondl; but the court was made up of men, and there were such things as politics and influence and interest. This wis ot a time when his hearers couldl afford to take an¥ chances, for théy bad emémies who worked while they (his hearers) were asleep. ‘These enemies were not fair fighters and would strike » man woén he was down. The provisions of the constitution con- cerning sectarianism in public education were:constantly wiolated at the State Nor- inal School at San Jose, where Catholics and Hebrews are compelled to listen to services to which their consciences did not,assent. The_charter meant endless litigation, a regular randora’s box, and would-break openothe City treasury thata golden shower might fail out upon the legal frateraity.: Every parent had a right to educate his coiidren according fo his belief in parochial or private schools if he wished,, Father” Yorke thien’ read the following as'the conclusion of his address: From the. beginning of this bitter struggle we have urged on all of, the friends of liberty 1o forget everthing,for thesuccess of the cause. We have utged them fo keep themselves aloof drom all parties and from all personal entan- -glements. We have besought them not to get iuto disputes and altercations as to which was tne better man, but to confine themselves to _the solequestion: Which is thestrongest man? We have done so in.the hope that the people would not tie themselves up to sideshows, and thet the natural courseo! events wonld desig- recruiting sep- nate the strongest candidate on whom all could unite irrespective of personal preference of political beliel. We have, both in our own proper person and T the columus of this paper, 8gain and again declared that we hed no prefereuces. We have tried to steer an even keel. Whzn the cam- paign liar declared that we were in favor of one candidate or of another, we clearly and unmistakably defined our position. We would rather see an A. P, A. in every office in San FErancisco, from Mayor down to Poundmaster, than lift a finger 1o dictate a VOte: By that declaration we stand. e have not one voice in public and another in private. We have the right to be considered sincere until we have been proved insincere, and we feel justly hurt that the friends of any candi- date"should have considered it necessary to the success of their cause to castout unwortay hints ebout men dressed in clerical garb sianding at the ballot-box. It is our earnest determination not to allow ourselves 1o be used by one faction or another. When any faction or candidate tries to use us or the fight we huve made or the faith we pro- fess or the race to which we belong we believe it to be oursolemn duty to protest against such use with all our heart and all our strength. The methods of A. P. A-ism are damnable, whether they are employed by Catholic or Protestant. Hence we solemnly warn with all the suthority we have earned and with all the earnestness we can command all Catholic or Irish societies not to permit themselves to be deluded by little cliques of professional Catholics and professionul Irishmen who haye taken it upon themselves to indorse candi- dates. Our werning is especielly directed_to the members of the Ancient Order of Hi- bernians. A little sheet which professes to be their official organ has indorsed, Dimond for Mayor. A coterie of politicians pretending to represent the order has done the same. Instructions are being sent to the members and to members of other societies that this is the strongest candidate on whom ail are to unite, and our name,-our fight against the | charter, our crusade against the A. P. A. are all being used by men who are Catholics for place and Irishmen for revenue as the author- ity for such instructions. We declare now that all this is done without our sanction. Na man has & right to use our name to further such & scheme. The characterless scoundrels at the bottom ‘of it are the same who, not so long ago, made revenue by peddling our pie- ture from door to door under the plea that it was for our finaucial benefit and who now would make revenue by peddling our name in & scheme which we denounce and abhor. We know that the name of the A. O. H. is used without the consentof its members, even as our name is used against our will. We ap- peal, therefore, from the clique which is engi- neering this propdsition to the great .body of the members. We think we know whatis for their beuefit and we believe that they have confidence in us. We have no personal objects to gain, no versonal ends to serve. We say unhesitatingly that the professional Irishmen who are behind this scheme are behind 1t for boodle end that their only purpose is to split the anti-A. P. A. vote wide open and to keep it spiit in order that the bosses may succeed. On thing we wish to make certain and that is that our name and our influence shal not be used in this nefarious scheme. We.hereby denounce it with all the strenzth we possess, and we shall continue to denounce it aslong and as often as we shall have the upportunity. st such movemeuts led by such painted s as have given excuse to the A. P. A. W = atnong Catholics as much as ‘atholics, and we believe every true Catholic hates it likewise. Itis only the professional Catholic and the professiopal Irishman who indnlge in such chicanery, and we are determined that their rascality:shall not redound to tae dishonor of decent men. It gives us no pleasure to say these things. We say them because we believe that we would be filse to our people and to ourselves if we keptsilent. Our good'name is very dear to us and we do not intend to allow it"to be miserable advertising sheets or to the hench- men of bosses. We believe the people who have been with us in this fight irom the be- ginning will not suffer this indignity.to be put upon us. For nothing lower than itrugh aud rght and justice have, we striven, fearing neither traitors within nor foes without. ask all who think with us thus.to hold up pur bands even unto the end. .

Ata meetingof Leland Stanford Camp No: 2 of the Army and .Navy Republican League last night Colonel J. M. Litcbfield in a neat speech presented the league with a handsome American flag as a gift from Colonel C. F. Crocker. % The flag’ just presented is one of the best_that could be made. It is the new regulation size, 44x56.inthes. On the cen- ter stripes is embroidered in silk the name and number of ‘‘Leland Stanford Camp No. 2, Army and Navy Republican. League of Californta.’”” 3 The banner is' mounted on a jointed staff, surmounted by an eagle, &nd is trimmed with yeliow silk knotted fringe with cord and tassels, - Vice-Commander E. C. Thatchef, who vresided, called upon Comraae Frank E. Myers to respond. He thanked Colonel Crocker for his kina recognition of the veterans and assured him that the boys will do as well on next Tuesday with the ballots as-they did . thirtv-one_ years ago with bullets. e Adjutant George A. Crawl sang *The Star-spaigled Bapner” immediately after the presentation, which received a grand round of applause. Master Pendergast, the son of the veteran, recited an ‘*Address to the Flag,”’ Miss Cordie Wetjen, daughter of the nomi- nee for Tax Coliector, amused the audi- ence with a whistling solo. An address by Mrs. J. Murray Baily and a song by Miss Dora Johnson concluded the entertaining features of the meeting. . Afterward the entire regular Republican nominees for municipal offices were in- dorsed. The following resolution was adopted: Resolved, That the comrades of Leland Stanford Camp No. 2, army and Navy Repub- lican League, have heard with proioun gret of the death on the 29th inst.,in this City, of the wife of their commander, M. 8.

All ‘Are Assured of Republican Victory Next Tuess . day. ; THE OUTLOOK VERY BRIGHT. San Francisco Will Return Most of Its Lawmakers o Sacramento With McKinley Views. The views of the Republican nominees for the Assembly fiom this City, as pub- lished in yesterday’s CALL, acted as un im- petus to the other Assemblymen in the remaining Assembly districts to express their views upon the political complexion as they have focused it. . George A. Wentworth, the young attor- ney-at-law who received the regular Re- publican nominaticn for-the Thirty-sev- enth District, smd: A . “My district extends from Van Ness avenueto the ocean, taking in all of Hayes Valley, which is a prosperous settlement. And after a careful ‘canvass of the entire district I am prepared to assert that I will be elected, as I find the.people all through the district to be in favor ef McKinley and protection. This, of course, means the Republican party and myséif, being the regular nominee of the party, will, as a matter of course, i .“The Thirty-eighth Assembly District is'Republican. Its citizens and residents are among the best people 1n the City, and being. sucti will voté for me,” said Gus Polilmann. *‘Not that I am any bétter than ady other man, but simply because.l have got the correct credentials from the regular Republican party and as a matter of course am bound to' vote in acéordance with the policy of that party and be, re- sponsible to that party for iny official acts. I will be elected sure and will vote fora Republican United States Senator,” *The Thinty-ninth A<sembly District is known as the banner Republican district of San Francisco,’” ‘said Leon E. Jones, t‘and, this bein so, I feel more than proud.to be the regular Republican nomi- Mr. Chandler agreed with his Assembly- man and said: “The people of this dis- trict are to a man in favor of protection and better times. They know that from the Republican party alone can this be expected. Hence we will get asweeping majority and be elected.” Tom these various sources it can be safely.estimated that San Francisco will be well represented in the Republican lower house of_the Legisiature next year, and that a Republican United States Senator will go to Washington for six years.

The Well-Known Jeweler Acquired Great Wealth and Spent It Freely. Hérman Levison, senior proprietor of thie California Jewelry Company, died in his apartments, over the Pup restaurant, Wednesday night. Mr. Levison had been in failing health for three years. The im- mediate cause of death was pneumonia, which developed last Monday. The pa- tient’s condition was not deemed danger- ous until Wednesday-afternoon, when J. T. Bonestell, 4 member of the company, ‘summened, Dr. Mayer. An hour later consulting physicians were called, but the patient did not have suflicient vitality to resist the attack of the disease. Herman Levison was widely known in mercantile circles of this country and Eu- rope. He was an open-handed, generous and broad-gauged man of affairs, who was liberal in extending credit. to smaller dealers, and in some instances his confi- HERMAN LEVISON, the Wealthy Jeweler, Who ‘Died at the Pup_ Restaurant, . . . nee for that district. I will be.elected, that is most certain. I know the people of my district, and they know me to be a true and lpyal Republican. And when 1 nyhtl,x-is Isay what I can prove to be cor- rect.” ¥ “The Fortieth Assembly District can be scratched off the doubtful column,” said Sig. M. Bettman, the regular Republican nominee, when asked how he stood with his people. X “The district which I will bave the honor of representing in Sacramento next spring is safe for McKinley, Hobart, the Republican party and its regular nominec jor the Assembly and for all the other municipal officers. “Just pass on to the next district and ask them how they feel. The Fortieth is 0. K. for a Republican United States Sen- ator next January.” g “Oh, say, ask me something that I may have a littie doubt_about, just to keep me thinking awhile. Wiy, the Forty-firstis just as certain to elect Henry C. Dibble, the regular Republican nomines for the Assembly, as that that same Henry C. No use in worrying about my district—it1s loyal and true to the Republican party'and will elect me by a handsome majority.”” “The Forty-second is O. K. for a .safe Republican Assemblyman and that man will be myself, simply because 1 am tne Reguiar Republican nominee,”” These were the words spoken by Lorenzo A. Henry when asked how he stood with the voters of his district. 3 “The Forty-third will return me to the next Assembly just as sure as the sun will rise on next Tuesday morning,” said Fred Lundquist, the Regular Republican nomi- nee for the Assembly from that district. «] have made a very careful canvass of the people of my district all along the line from Market street to Broadway, cross streets and all, and from what I con- cluded to be an honest expression of their individual opinions I am certain of being elected to the Assembly from this dis- triet.” “The fight is not between men this year. It is party and principles, and in- agmuch as I represent the Regular Re- publican party there can be but very little doubt of my election.” This is the way Jo-eph Merani, the Regular Republican nominee for the Forty-fourth Assembly District, spoke when asked about . his chances for election. In the Forty-fifth Assembly District, where Joseph O'Hanlon is the running mate of Thomas W. Chandler, the regular nominee of the Republican party for State Senator, the conjoined opinion of both was had at the same time. O'Hanlon said he was sure of ‘being elected from the result of his canvass among the people. He continued: “I have lived all my life in this district as has Mr.-Chandler, and we both are well known and have every reason to be as- sured of our election.” - dence and . generosity were abused, al- though not to the extent of marring the success of the company which he di- rected. © ne ¥ In 1868 Herman Levison married Miss Marcus, sister of George Marcus, who 1s now a member of the firm. For many years Mr. Levison owned a beautiful home at the corner of Van Ness avenue ana Bush street, which he sold to Johnny Skae for $65,000. .There the jeweler, whose income was large, entertained lavishly. He also maintained a house in Hamburg, Germany, where his wife and three chil- dren now reside. His daughter, the eldest child; is' the wife of Mr. Jason, a promi- nent bankar of Hamburg. Two boys, one aged 20 and the other1 4,live with their mother in Hamburg, whe re Mrs, Levison has resided much of the time since 1888. In 1885 Mr. Lewison organized 2 peasl- fishing company. He anu his associates obtained from the Mexican Government an exclusive privilege or concession for gathering pearls in the gulf of California. Mr. Levison invested $55,000 in the enter- prise, which digt not prove as remunera- tive as the company expected. _The firm of Levison Bros. was estab- lished in 1861, aud its business operations have since been very extensive and highly profitable. The estate of Herman Levison embraces the land and the building at 134 Sutter street, occupied bv Nathan Dohr- mann & Co. and Vanderslice. Whiie the rich jeweler madeé money rapidly he did not heara his wealth. He was fond of good living and indulged the pleasures which his wealth coald sfford. He trav- eled extensively, and wherever he tarried for any length of time secured pleasant apartments, and surrounded himself with the comiorts und Inxuries of life, The surviving members of the Califor- nia Jewelry Company aré J. T. Bonestell, William P. Morgan and Gustav Marcus. Mr. Levison was born in Germany fifty- seven yeéars o e The Armory Club. The Armory Club, C. Eckert in the chair and Jerome Bassity as secretary, were ad- dressed last night by Candidates Sander- son, Cook, Low and Wetmore, Among those indorsed by the ciub were: John Hunt and Carroll Cook for Superior Court Judges; Campbell, Low and Treadwell for Police Court Judges; Barry and Kerrigan for Justices of the Peace; Treasurer, A.

Always Faithful to the Tax- Payers and His Record Honorable, DE YOUNG'S TWC-EDGED SWORD Business Men Will Support Kr. Tay- lor for Mayor Because His Record Is Straight. ‘Whether or not the proposet new char- ter shall be adopted, the contest for Mayor is none the less important in the eyes.of the people. With or without the charter the Mayor will be the most weighty figure in the City goyernment. & The question, then, naturally arises, “Which one of the many candidatesin the field is the mostdesirable, the most reliable, the. most competent to guide the helm of the municipal government for the ensuing term?”’ % His principal competitors for the posi- tion are Messrs. Dimona and Phelan, rep- resenting respectively the Chris Buckley- .Cator'and Sam Rainey wings of the Popu- list and Democratic parties. As side- show dime-museumn attractions there are Martin Keily’s man, -Laumeister, and_ C. C. O’Donnell’s man, Dr. O’Donnell. Mr. ' Laumeister is a respectable flour merchant and has many friends who deeply regret the fact that he has allowed Mr. Kelly to Svengalize him into bolting tne Republi- can party. Dr. O'Donnell needs no intro- duction.” He has been a standing candi- date for Coroner, Mayor and Governor for many years, and has'a large practice of a kind mentioned only in ‘the advertising columns. After November 3 he will re- ceive a call to doctor the "Democratic party, which will be sadly in need of his peculiar services by that time. 2 Mr. Taylor has had n.any years’ expe- .rience as a_ Supervisor, and -in all those years he has been a friend of the people. His political reputation is and has been without a blemish. When I. M. Kalloch (whose son shot and killed Charles de Young of the’ Chronicle) was Mayor of | this City, and was the pet of the anar- chistic element, Mr. Taylor was a member of the Board of Supervisors. During his term of office General Grant visited this City, and the community, blushing at the thought that the ex-President and hero shouid be received by the choice of the sanclot, virtually deposed the Mayor and appointed Mr. Taylor to head the delega- tion of citizens appointed. to receive the general and offer him the freedom of the City. % John M. Chretien of the Republican County Committee said yesterday that the antagonism of that bolting Republican newspaper, the Chronicle, had done Mr. ‘Taylor more good than harm, and that the members of many prominent business firme had told him that the attacks of the Chronicle had increased the number of Taylor's supporters, and had diminished the number of those who had felt favor- abiy disposed toward” William A. Deene’ for Auditor. Thus it appears that politics is often a two-edged sword that cuts the hand which wields it. Mr. Chretien further expressed the belief. that the ecandidates for the mayoralty would come in in the following order: Taylor, Dimond, Phelan, O'Donnell and Laumeister last. The.Chronicle is abusing Mr. Taylor because he did not appear before the Board of KEqualization in’ Sacramento, yet the vack files of that volatile and politically unreliabie sheet show editorials praising Mr. Taylor for his action in that matter, and explaining that he did not attend the meeting: because Mr. Cheesebrough, the San Francisco member 6f the board, had specially requested him not to doso. The Chronicle on that occasion said that Mr. Taylor’s course was an honorable one and was in the best interests of this City and County. . / Sucn is the disadvantage of possessing a treacherous memory and of hopping from one principle to another. Mr. Taylor is not that kind of a man; his record shows that he has always adbered to principle, and hence his course, unlike that of the Chrénicle, has always been consistent. He is gaining in strength ‘every day, for he is a safe, sound, conservative business man, into whose hands may be intrusted with confidence the affairs of this impor- tant municipality. . NEW TO-DAY.

Address o lw » by NEW TO-DAY! “GO0OD GOVERNMENT.’ ' ADDRESS —OF THE— CITIZENS’ NON - PARTISAN - PARTY! —TO THE— VOTERS OF SAN FRANCISCO. The Citizens’ Non-Parisan Party was called inta existence by’ a conaition of affairs in the City Gov- ernment familiar to all. This deplorable condition continues in an aggra« vated form. 1t has therefore nominated In the interest of g00d government, and irrespective of party poli- tics, ticket which it asks the voters in the City to support. it The return of the bosses to the scenes of their nefarious operations, the failure of justice in deal- ing with these conspirators, and the open organi- zation of corruptionists, have compelled the Non- Partisan Party to weed out dowbtful or known bad men, and place before the voters of this city men whq are believed tobe honest and hongrable. Each caididate indorsed by the Non‘Partisans bas signed a pledge, which is on file witli the sec- retary, to conduct the affairs of the cily economi- cally, honoq;,lly. and on tusiness principles, and embracing the Joilowing obligations: Provide for the fullest enjoyment of religious liverty; Pubjc schools to be liberally supolied and eco- nomically managed : Total tax levy not to exceed 81 on the $100 on assessed value of*$300,000,000. One-twelfth Act rigidiy enforced, and no ex- penses incurred except by authericy of the Syper- visors: - Golden Gate Park to be improved for the beneft of the people; experise not to exceed 5cents on the $100. Streets and sewers to bé improved, superintend- ent to be a civil engineer, and business methods employed; Eight hours a day’s work; home Jabor and ma- terial to be preferred I n all cases: “Coungy Clerk’s oflice to be run within $6000 per month; City and County Surveyor's fees, cost of janitor service at City Hall, and ‘shorthand reporting, to be reduced; . All departments of Clty Government to be re- moved from partisan politic Free use of Telephone by City: no franchise or extensions granted yithout direct benefit to City. Itisthe purpose of the Citizens’ Non-Partisan Porty to see, as far as Inits power, that such can- didates, it elected, shall carry out their pledge to the letter. Every citizen recognizes the demoralized condi- tion of our Municipal Government, and will admit that constant watchfulness is necessary (0 s:amp out existing abuses and prevent the growth of others. Good officers need their arms strengthened againg’ schemers and temptation, and faithful officers are entitled to support; while those-who fail ‘In their duvy, or yield to the debasing influ- ence of the bosses, or (0 the direct or indirect bribes of corporations, should be made 10 feel the strong arm of the law. The Citizéns’ Non-Partizan Party's aim is to se cure to the City of San Francisco a good govern- ment, and for this purpose its organization will contfue until fts aim is accomplished. It is therefore justified in asking the effective and earnest support of all citizens ot San Fran- cisco, Irrespective of party politics, In lts efforts to secure at the.coming election good officers for the City of San Francisco.
