FOR PRESIDENT— WILLIAM McKINLEY, of Ohlo FOR VICF-PRESIDENT— GARRET A. HOBART, of New Jersey Election November 3, 1396 To-morrow we vote. To-day we get ready. California will vote right. Work for the whole ticket. It will be President McKinley. One day more and the agitation is over. Make it a certainty for Mayor Taylor. * Don’t forget the legislative ticket and the next Senator. At last Bryan has himself at histongue’s end. Business will soon resume with rising prices. Sound sense knows the value of sonnd money. Bryanism is Clevelandism run med and going to the dogs. The uprising of the people means the end of the depression. gty The American people can be counted on to repudiate repudiation. What will it profit any man to depreci- ate the American dollar? You are sure to win with McKinley and you are sure to 10se with Bryan, Put not your trust in Non-Partisans, for no wan knoweth what they stand for, ‘From Maine to California it will bea clean sweep for protection and prosperity. Why not hang out the flags on election day and keep up the fervor of patriot- ism? Let us see if we cannot make San Fran- cisco the hanner Republican county of the State. Victory to-morrow depends largely on .work to-day. Let us leave nothing to chance. Talk to your friends and see that they make up their minds to vote right to- IMCTITOW. No more free trade, no more deficits, no more bond sales, no more increase of the public debt. el S Send no free-trader to Congress, we have had enough of that kind for the rest of this generation. No Povocrat need fear coercion at the polls. Good citizens will have voles enough without them. We know our people are all right for protection, but we should make it as nearly unahimous as possible. Tne welfare of your business is depend- ent on the election of McKinley and Hobart and don’t you forget it Maryland will down Gorman, Illinois will down Altgeld, California will down Cator, and the Nation will down Bryan. The municipal ticket headed by Colonel Teylor means true Republicanism and good government. Work for it and vote for it. To have a Republican United States Senator who will support the McKinley administration we must have a Repub. can Legislature. Bear that in mind and ‘work to that end. The full Republican vote should be polled to-morrow for the regnlar Repubii- can ticket. Make it a great victory for loyal Republicanism. This will be the last year of “Bryan, Aligeld and Tillman in National politics. They may distorb their home people to some extent hereaiter, but they will never disturb the Nation any more, To make sure that the indnstries of Cal- ifornia will be guarded from foreign com- petition we must put none but protection- ists on guard in Congress. Let us havea solid Republican delegation and be o2 the safe side. We have the same interests as we have the same country, and there can be no class antagonism among the American people 50 long as all are actuated by a true patriotism and devotion to the welfare of the Nation. San Francisco cannot afford to make an experiment with an untried man in the Mayor’s office, nor can she afford to elect any man nominated by Buckley, Rainey or Kelly. The man for the time, the work and the office is Charles L. Taylor. The Congress to be elected to-morrow will have the 1mportant work of revising and reforming the tariff, and every dis- trict in California shouid have a strong champion of home industries to look after its interests when the new tariff bill is being drawn up, HOW WILL YOU VOTE? Voters of San Francisco, how will you vote to-morrow? That is the question you must decide to-day, if you have not already decided. Tue answer can be no longer postponed. Even the most waver- ing, hesitating and doubtful must make up their minds now. The issues have been fully set before you during the cam- vaign. How are you going to vote? How will you vote on the tariff ques- tion? Will you vote for the policy which in twenty-three years lowered our intere: bearing National debt from over $2,000,- 000,000 to $585.000,000, or will you vote for a policy which in time of peace increased the bonded debt by $162,000,000? Will you vote fora policy which left a surplus in the treasury every year alter large appro- priations for public improvements, or for | a policy which under enforced economy has resuited in a deficiency of nearly $200,- 000,000 in three years? | 'How will you vote on the money ques- tion? Will you vote to depreciate the American dollar to the value of 50 cents? Wil you vote to diminish the purchasing power of the wages of labor? Will you vote to reduce the value of your savings in the banks? Will you vote to eutin half the value of yourinsurance policy? Will you vote to reduce the value of the pen- sions paid to the soldiers in the war for the Union and their widows and orphans? Will you vote to répudiate one-half the National debt? Will you vote for dis- honor to the financial credit of the Na- tion? Or will you vote for sound money, honesty, justice to yourself and all who have saved money, fair pensions to the Nation’s veterans, and the stainless honor and integrity of the Republic? How will you vote on the right of the National Government to enforce its laws? How will you vote on the question of maintaining the dignity of the Supreme Court? Will you vote to weaken the Na- tional Government, and revive the cause which surrendered at Appomattox? Wiil you vote for lawliessness against law? ‘Will you vote for Altgeld, Tiliman, Coxey and Debs, or will you vote to maintain the strength of the Nation, the enforce- ment of its Jaws and to keep the Supreme Court in the future as it has been in the past the guardian of the rights of the American people ana the temple of invio- late justice? These are the questions for you to answer by your votes to-morrow. They are not idle questions. They have not been brought up as mere matters of de- bate. They are issues of practical politics. They are to be settlea by the votes on election day. You cannot shirk them. Not to vote would be to weaken the strength of the patriots who are going to vote right. Therefore the question comes to you as one of solemn responsibility. ! How are you going to vote to-morrow ? The issues of this campaign cannot be overstated 1n their importance. Shall we sustain Iaw and order and uphold the tribunals of justice which inall the trying times of the past have been our greatest safety and our pride? Shall We continue a financial policy which is aafe and sound and gives to us a money with which to do a business that is stable in value and commands respect, not only at home, but in every commer- cial nation of the world 2 On these questions there should be no two opin- ions.—MecKinley. T0-DAY'S DUTY. The duty of Republicans to-day is to arrange to bring out the full vote of the party to-morrow. Every Republican should resolve to attend to thisduty for himself and see to it that such of his neighbors as may be indiff-rent or careless do not neglect to go to the polls and vote for McKinley and Hobart and the whole ticket. There are always men who permit some trifling call of the day tolead them to overlook the high privilege of voting for the men who are to sdminister the affairs of the Nation, the State and the Qity. These men should be made aware of the responsibility that rests upon them. - The business and the industry of every man is concerned in the outcome of this election. There is hardly 2 man in California who could not better afford to close up his business altogether on Tuesday than to lose the chance of casting a vote for pros- perity. This then is the duty of the day. Talk to your friends and neighbors. Remind them of the great issues at stake. Impress upon them the responsibility of citizen- ship. Urge upon them the demands of patriotism. Obtain from them a promise that under no circumstances will t ey fail to go to the polls to-morrow and vote right, The argument of the campaign has re- sulted in a Repuslican triumph, but the final test will be the votes on election day. It will matter little if a man thinks right if he does not vote right. It was good to work for McKinley dnring the campaign, it was excellent to march in the grand vrocession of Saturday, but that which is best remains to be done. Every citizen must vote. Every patriot must vote for ~ound money, protection, prosperity and National honor. Resolve in your own mind that you will not fail in this duty and resolve also that you will do all in your power to get others to be equally faithful to the welfare of the Nation. The only way to improve our condition is to increase business. Let us do our own manu acturicg. Let us do our own mining and let us preserve our own hom+« market—the best market in the world. And let us dedicate ourselves paiiivts to the promotion of the high- est interests of the American people. I believe in « tariff, and if we ever needed a tariff in the world we need it now.— McKinley. VOTE FOR OOLONEL TAYLOR. Charles L. Taylor should receive the vole of every believer in good municipal government in San Ffancisco. He is the nominee of the regular Republican party of this City and stands for all that the party represents. He is entitled to every loyal Republican vote, on the score of ‘the re ularity of his nomination, and is enti- tled also to the vote of every independent citizen on the score of his character and his eminent services to the people while a member of the Board of Supervisors. . Vote for Charles L. Taylor. Make his majority one that the City can be proud of. Make itan evidence that the people bave at last arisen against boss rule in politics and dishonesty in municipal gov- ernment. Vote for him because he is a sound Republican, Vote for him because he i a goo1 citizen. Vote for him because he was a iaiihful, honest and upright So- vervisor. Vote for him because he will make the best Mavor San Francisco can obtain in this election. Vote for him be- cause his services in office will redound to the welfare of the City and to the advan- tage of every taxpayer and of every work- ingman. This is no time to make experiments with untried men. This is no time to trust men who are backed by Buckley or Rainey or Kelly. If the new charter should be adopted the Mayor will have most important duties to fulfill and for the good of the City it is imperative that he should be a man upright in himself and free from evil associations. The man for the City, the man for the time, the man for the people and the man for the office is Charles L. Taylor. Work for nim to-day, vote for him to-morrow. Having prevented legislation to pro- vide sufficient revenue to run the Gov- ernment, Mr. Bryan and his supporters take every occasion «1so to declare that they are opposed to borrowing in time of peace. But if tiey will neither fur- nish sufficient revenue to carry on the Government nor permit borrowing to meet the deficiency, then the only al- ternative is for the Government to stop. Is that their programme ?—Hon. Nelson Dingley. DEFEAT MAGUIRE. It is the clear, logical and patriotic duty of the Republicans of the Fourth Con- gressional District to defeat James G. Ma- guire and to elect a Republican to Con- gress in his place. Thisis a duty te party and to principle, without refezence to the merits of individual men, Mr, Maguire is a Democrat and a free trader of the most extreme type. He has never cast his vote in Congress for the protection of an American industry and he never will. 1f the Republican National ticket shall pres’ vail and if Mr. Maguire should be re- elected he will be found opposing every effort of the administration to restore prosperity by means of protection and fighting the battle of free trade whenever and wherever the issue is joined. Let the Republicans of his district remember this fact upon election day, and when they cast their ballot for McKinley and protec- tion let them not stultify themselves by voting for Maguire and free trade. The career of Mr. Maguire in Congress durin: the past two terms has not jus- tified his return. When asked by bis con- stituents what he has done for his district he is unable to point to the pages of the Congressional Record which contain a satisfactory reply. The people of San Francisco expected much from Mr. Maguire in the way of accelerating the procurement of our new Postoffice build- ing, but their expectations have not been realized. The time which he mignt have well spent in urging the authorities at Washington to action in this matter he preferred to occupy in making speectes down in D:laware upon the subject of the single tax. T e influence which he might have wielded with the administration in securing needea appropriations for the improvement of the harbor must have been otherwise em- ploved. In short, the utiity of Mr. Ma- guire as a Congressman is not discernible to the people of San Francisco, noris there any reason which can be assigned why his re-election should be made possible by Re- pablican votes. The plain duty of the Re- publicans of his district is to cast their ballots for Thomas B. O'Brien on next Tuesday, and thus insure the election of a Republican Congressman from the Fourth Congressional District,who may be counted upon to sustain every effort of a Republi- can administration to enact such protec- tive legislation as will restore prosperity to the land. Is it not a campnign consis'ing of an appeal to ignorance? Is it not a cam- paign of an appeal to falsehood ? Is it not appealing to dishonor and dis- honesty, and, finally, a campaign resting on an appeal to hatred, envy, malice, and all uncharitabieness? This, gentle- men, is what distinguishes this cam- paign broadly and sharply from any other political campaign which any of us have any knowledge of. It is this that makes it a fight which puts at hazard and imperils the foundation of soclety itself It is this considera- tion which makes it in a high degree proper that we should all forget our former party alliances and connections and unite together, earnestly, sincerely and enthusiastically in one effort to fihally get rid of such a pestilential heresy as that which Bryan is endeav- oring to propagate.—Hon. James C. Car- ter of New York THE NEXT SENATE. Among the Senators whose terms of office expire on the 4th of next March are thirteen Republicans. Political experts concede the certainty that all of these will be returned or that Republican successors will be elected for them except in the case of the Senators from North Carolina and California. 1t is to be regretted that even the least sanguine of experts should have any doubt concerning this State. The in- dustries of California require protection and it shows a most perverse state of pub- lic opinion that there should be any ques- tion as to whether or no the California Legisiature will send a stanch protection- 1st to the Senate next year, The only danger that lies in the way of electing a Republican Benator is the fusion which has been brought about between the Populists and the Democrats of the State. Thereare abundant evidences that the fusion managers have prepared to sac- rifice Bryan to gain the next Senator. They see no hope of the election of a free silver President, but they believe that they can control the Senate and thus, by pre- venting the passage of a protective tariff bill which would restore the prosperity of the country, keep alive the present discon- tent and give themselves & chance for be t ter success four years from now. The real fight of the campaign, there- fore, 1s for the Seuate. Bryan is defeated. The free-silver candidates for the Senate, however, still have hopes of success. In every State where there is a possibility of electing one of them the fusioa managers will direct every effort to thatend. Itis against these eiforts that Republicans must now be on their guard. The likelibood of the success of the fusion managers in California has been largely diminished by the character of the man whom they have put in the forefront of the contest as their candidate for the Sen- ate. Mr. Cator represents no interest in California and no strong sentiment among its people. He does not reprsent the Popalist rank and file, though he is the choice of the convention of that party, and he is in no sense of the word the rep- resentative of Democracy. He has been put upon Democrats by a trade for which they are not responsible and which the better element among them will hardly sngpon. evertheless the danger must not be overlooked. Among the features of the camprign to which close attention must be given by Republicans and honest- money Democrats is that of the election of a Republican iegisiative ticket, Let every good citizen bear this in mind: To assure the passage of a proteciive-tariff law and the restoration of prosperity to California we must send a loyal Republi- can 1o the Senate, and that can be done ouly by the election of -loyal Republicans to the State Legislature. Let every Republican remember to vote for the regular I'epublican Legis- lative nominees and thus insure the election of a iiepublican Senator. NEWS OF FOREIGN NAVIES The naval arsenal at Foochow is again to be reorganized. It wasstarted on the European plan in the early sixties, with French officers and a number of foreign engineers and me- chanics for & staff engaged to build ships, en- gines and guns. After a few years the foreign- ers were dispensed with and the Chinese con- tinued the work begun, but made no progress, they simply duplicated ships built years a0, The recent war with Japan has opened the eves of the Emperor's advisers, and Gen- eral Yu Lu has been placed in charge of the Foochow arseual. After consultation with a French naval officer it has been decided 1o en- | gage another corps of Fremch vaval ship- | wrights, engincers and other mechanics, with three superintendents, each of whom are to be paid $1500 a month. Seven prolessorsats monthly saiary oi $320 each are to come out from England to take charge of the navai school located at Foochow. The experiment of building engines and boilers in the dockyards has proved a success in the British navy. It was the practice, until SIX years ago, to giveall the engines and boil- ers to private firms, but the good and econom- ical work doueon the Gleaner has proved that the dockyard force can turn out as good machinery at a reasonable cost as they can build ships. The advantages of having all parts of & vessel built at one place are apparent—the costly plants are utilized and the Government becomes less dependent on outside private fizms, The British Admiralty is introducing water- tube boilers of different patterns in several ships, with a view of practically testing their merits. The Babcock end Wilcox is being fitted in the Sheldrake, the Salamander has the Thornycroft, the Belleville was put in the Sharpshooter some time ago, and the Niclause s well &s the Du Temple boilers will be placed in two other vessels of the same classas those above mentioned, which are all gunboats of 735 tons and 4500 horse-power. Spain has ordered a cruiser from an Italian firm. The vessel will be similar to the Gari- baldi, buiitin Italy and sold to the Argentine Republic. She will be 6840 tons and is to de- velop & speed of twenty to twenty-one knots with 15,000 haorsepower. Messrs. Krupp of Essen have purchased the Germania Ship-Building Works at Kiel and Germania Marine-Engine Works at Tegel, near Berlin. They have also yurc! d ground at Wilhelmshafen, where they are building works and docks suitable for repairing iron- clads end placing engines on board. It is understood the Krupps have taken thisstep on the suggesiion of the Emperor as there is difficulty of securing the requisite money from parliament for the extension of ship-building. The puichase will enable the Krupp firm to supply ships-of-war complete with armament ready for service. The Armstrong Company at Elswick has signed a contract with the Spanish Goverm- meut agreeing to build a battleship of 11,000 tons in fourteen months for $4,500,000 and a cruiser of 6000 tons in twelve months for $3,000,000.

DEFEAT WOULD B: LUCKY FOR HIM Brooklyn agle It is because we belieye that what he has said 8o plainly and simply would come up to torment him in the White House that we are convinced that defest would be the best thing that could happen to him. He has toid the farmers that they would get twice as much for their crops it he were elected, and he has also told the workingmen that their wages would buy just as much with free coinag they do now. He has made this so clear that no one can mistake him. ?un farmers and workingmen will lor vote im because they be.icve what he tells them. But the things which he promises he cannot fulfill. Mr. Bryan needs to learn that whatever the experience of the civilized world has found o be the best rollcy under given circumsiances cannot easily be proved o be the worst. It may not be ideal, but it has been adopted be- cause it was better than that which preceded it. If he should happen to be elected he will wish beiore the end of his term that he had been defeated, and if he is defeated he will thank Providence that he was not called u%:n to face the disasters which would have fol- sowed the free coinage of silver.

AFTER THE V. Tt. A E COUNTED. Commerciul Advertiser. Careful business men estimate that $500,- 000,000 wil: be placed in eirculation within a few weeks aiter the eleation of McKinley. This money is being poarded by big and little l | American spirit of freedc | vote cast for Palmer capitalists, who, though they believe Bryan's defeat1s certain, still care to take no risks, With the result that they are waiting untii the decision is rendered, when in eyery city in this country tusiness enterprises will. take on new lie, forges will be relignted, factory wheels will turn again, banks w Il circulate their treasure and workingmen, farmers, ar- usans, clerks, merchants, middlemen aund capitalisis wiil b gin the new epoch in Ameri- can history filled with courage born of honest enthusia-m. We may never know the damage that Bryan and the repudiationists have done in this ¢ountry. Every Siate has lost millious of dol ars since the Populists in_ Chicago de- clared for a debased curreney. Every capital istand workingman has shared in this loss, Happily the lony struggie is nearly ended. 1f every voter does his dutv on eiection day the currency question, so far as these United States are concerned, will never again have to be dis- cussed. The questions of National dishonor and National disnonesty will have passed away into thin air, justassome terribie mi- asma arites and is finally dispelled. But what & campaign it has been!

Why Every Sownd-Monry Should Cast His Fole f MicKinley. The argument on free silver st 16 to 1 ig closed and there is not a sired of fact or reason left to justify popular stpport of a depreciated currency. Iam and have becn sine f nation opposed to the election of W. J. Bryan. First, as an American, and second, as & Demo- crat. I recognize the grieva s and the just demsnds of the people, oppose personalities and believe party methods requira reconstr tion. But this kLes been the campai non-sequitur as made by the acvos silver. Many of the promises are sound, but they are wholly disconnected from the conelu- stou. The money power has becn aggressive and successiul, but 11s viciories over the peo- ple are not attributabie to any legisiatpn or trend of judicial decision affecting the cus rency. Here is where the non-sequitur comes 1n. From my point of view the thicago platform is not Democratic, but most_radicaily opposed. to true Democracy. The Indianapolis piat- form suits me, but the ounlw for sound money is in the election of v, and, in this State especielly, in my opinion, every d Buckner is in'effect a vote against Mckinley. Bryan is said to have won his nomination by eclaring in substance that & crown of thorns should not be pressed upon the brow of labor and that humanity should not be crueified upon a eross -of gold. These figures, though immediately effective, were not original. It may well be sugeested that, at this day, and in this land, the crucifixion of humanity is not possible, but if it were, a cross of gold would be preferable 1o a cross of silver. The deener thought, however, is that neither the crown of thorns, nor the ¢ross would have passed into history, had it not been for the great apostle of & debased currency, Judas Iscariot, who sold his Lord and master for thirty pleces of silver. This prototyve of mod- ern repudiationists, being vpricked with his conscience, appropriately hanged himself, and his thirty pieces of silver were used as a legal tender for the purchase of Aceldama or the fieid of blood.
