Patriotism, Protection and Prosperity. ¥FOR PRESIDENT— WILLIAM McKINLEY, of Oblo ¥OR VIOF-PRESIDENT— GARRET A. HOBART, of New Jersey Election November 3, 1896 Now vote. The ballot settles it. Itis McKinley’s day. | | Bring out the full vote. Every ballot counts one. Vote for woman suffrage. This is labor’s opportunity. Vote for protection and prosperity. See that your friends go to the polls. | Vote for good wages and sound money. Cast your batlot on the side of patriot- ism. | Down the party of debts, deficits and depressions. Drop a McKinley ballot in the slot and get prosperity. SR Uphold the great party of National honor and National prosperity. | Don’t forget the interests of industiry when you go into the voting-booth. | Stand up to-day for the welfare of Cali- fornia. Vote for protection to all her in- dustries. Vote for Loud. Vote for O‘Brien. Let us bave no free-traders from California in the next Congress. Stana by your party organization, loyal Republicans. Vote for Colonel Taylor and the whole ticket. You are to decide to-day whether Amer- jcan goods shall be made by American labor or by foreigners. What has Bryan ever done for American industry? What has he ever done for American werkingmen. Bear in mind that McKinley is the cthampion of American labor, the friend of every American workingman. Protection gave the Nation & revenue adequate to its needs, but free trade has given it a deficit of $200,000,000. Bemember there is not a silver country on earth where the wages of labor are as high as 1n gola-using countries. Four years ago the people voted for a panic and got it. Now let them vote for prosperity and they will get that. Work and vote for the Republican legis- lative ticket and make sure of sending to the United States Senate a man who rightly represents the State. Will you vote to reduce the purchasing power of your wages? Will you vote to reduce the value of the pensions paid to the defenders of the Nation? The American people are using more silver money per capita than any silver standard country in the world, and every dollar of it is kept as good as gold. Vote for the Republican Congressman in vour district. Let us have protection- ixts to look after the industries of Califor- nia when the new tariff bill is made up. Back of Bryan are Aitgeld, Tillman, Coxey and Debs, while around McKinley are clustered all the statesmen of the Na- tion. Think what that means and then vote. Toe best thing for honest-money Demo- crats to do to-day is to vote for the Mc- Kintey and Hobart electors. We should take no chances with Bryanism in Cali- fornia. This has been something more than a partisan contest. Ithas been a campaign for the honor and credit of the Nation, and every patriot will cast his vote with that understanding. Remember at the polls the invoeation of McKinley: “‘May we all be inspired by the same blessed spirit of patriotism that moved the grand and great men who founded our Government.” The wages of American workingmen were higher when Harrison went out of office than they had ever been before, and they did not fall until Cleveland went into office with the threat of free trade. Every industry in California suffered from the effects of the Wilson bill, and yet Bryan declared he wished still lower duties. He is an extreme free-trader and cares nothing for American industry. . As the champion of protection for all American industries McKinley is the supporter of the personal interests of each varticular citizen, and when you work for him you are working for the welfare of your own home. Under the policy of protection the Na- tional debt was diminished in twenty- three years from over $2,000,000,000 to $585,000,000, while under three years of iree trade it has been increased by $162,- 000,600, Which policy will you vote for? THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESbAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1896. - THE FINAL APPEAL. Vote early to-day, and when you have voted get out and work to see that every other right thmnking citizen votes also. Vote for National prosperity, for good municipal government, for the Republican legislative ticket and for the sixth amend- ment to the constitution which means woman's suffrage. Vote for the Republican Presidential electors. A vote for them isa vote tor McKinley and Hobart, for protection, for sound money, for the maintenance of law, for the revival of business, for good wages and for National honor and integrity. { Vote against the Preésidential electors who stand for Democratic free trade, depres- sion, disaster and Popocratic free silver, disturbance, debased money and lawless- ness. Vote for the Republican legislative ticket, which means the election of & Re- publican to the United States Senate who will guard the interests of the industries of California when the tariff is revised by the next Congress. Vote against legisla- tors who are pledged either directly or in- directly for a Democrat, a Popocrat or a Populist, for a free trader, a free silyerite or an agitator. s Vote for Republican candidates for those offices whose incumbents constitute the San Francisco Election Commission. The offices are: Mayor, Auditor, Surveyor, City Attorney and Tax Collector. San Francisco has been for too long atime under the control of an Election Commis- sion made up mainly of Democrats. We must have honest men on that board. Be sure ana vote Yor Republican candidates for those offices. Vote for Colonel Taylor and the regular Republican municipal ticket. These men stand for organized Republicanism which is the only force in the City that can be counted on for good government. Vote sgainst men who were nominated by bosses and are supported by them. A vote for the regular Republican ticket is a vote for honest men in office, municipal economy, improvement and progress. Vote for constitutional amendment No. 6. It means woman's suffrage. The women of California deserve the right to vote. They are taxpayers. They are citi- zens. They represent social forces that make for the betterment of society. Suf- frage in their hands would tend to purify polificsand bring about great political and social reforms. If given the suffrage they can be counted on in all future elections to act for the best interests of the people, for the promotion of the weliare of the City and the advancement of the State. Vote for these things and for these men. Work as well as vote. Nearly every citi- zen can afford to give much of his time to- day to politics. This is the opportunity of labor and of business. /This is the day to rebuke Clevelandism and repudiate Bry- anism. This is the occasion to overthrow municipal bosses. Go to the polls. Work and vote. Make yourself count as a cham- pion uf patriotism, protection and pros- perity. The Republican party proposes, when- ever restored to full power, such a re- vision of the tariff as will secure suffi- clent revenue to put an end to the chronio deficlency which has existed more than three years and still exists, and as will also provide a surplus from which the redemption fund may be re- plenished in time of need, and the in- terest-bearing debt gradually reduced ; and at the same time with duties so adjusted on protective lines as to en- courage American industries and labor, and such other legislation, not to enter into details, as the Republican par y has championed and the public inter- ests require.—Hon, Nelson Dingley, VOTE FOR TAYLOR. Colonel Charles L. Tayloris the nominee of the regular Republican party of this County. He is the representative of the business elements of the people of San Francisco. He is the faithfal champion of the welfare of the people, His fidelity, sagacity and honesty are attested both by his private life and by his services to the City on the Board of Supervisors. Vote for him. Give your aid to the better ele- ment of the people in the task of making him the next Mayor of 8an Francisco. Loya! Republicans, vote for Colonel Taylor and maintain the organization of your party. Vote for him because he represents the discipline, the loyalty and the integrity of Republican organization, Vote for him because the time has come to make San Francisco a Republican city, and give it that good government and honest administration which all Republi- can voters desire. Independent citizens, vote for Colonel Taylor because he is the opponent of the bosses. He is associated neither with Buckley nor Rainey nor Kelly, nor with any of their gangs. He represents clean poiitics. He is the associate of men who desire good government. Back of him stand the business men and the working- men of the City. He has no pledges which bind him to support anything which mili- tates against public welfare, and if elected will giveto the City that municipal re- form which has been =o long needed. Good citizens all, vote for Colonel Tay- lor. He is one of those citizens who make up the strength of the municipality, and whose enterprise constitutes the motive force of its progress. It is a matter of congratulation to the people of San Fran- cisco to have an opportunity of electing such a.man to the office of Mayor. He stands for improvement, economy and honesty. He is the man for the office and for the time. Vote for him and make sure of an administration in which all peo- vle of San Francisco can take a just pride. ELECTION CQMMISSIONERS. Among the important municipal offices to be filled by election to-day are those Wwhose incumbents are ex-officio Election Commissioners. These offices are Mayor, Auditor, Burveyor, City and County At- torney and Tax Collector. Three of these offices are now in the hands of Democrats, and the Mayor was elected as a Populist, 80 that only one man orr the commission is a Republican. A condition similar to this has pre- vailed fora long time, and 1t behooves the Republicans of the City to see to it that this year they elect a majority of these officers. It is clear that so long asour election machinery is in the hands of Democratic officials, who in many cases are but the tools of Democratic bosses, fair elections are «almost an impossibility. The scandals of past elections are fresh in the minds of all voters, and we need bat recall them to enable every citizen to see how important it is to make a change in this respect, The men to be voted for for these offices are: Charles L. Taylor for Mayor, Wil- liam A. Deane for Auditor, C. H. Wetjen for Tax Collector, John R. Aitken for Attorney and Charles L. Tilton for Sur- vevor. Remember the names, remember the offices and remember the importance of the issue. The men nominated by the rezular Republican party for these offices are in every way wortliy of the positions to which they aspire. No man can question their ability to fill the official positions for which they have been nominated, nor can it be doubted that they will be just and fair in thetfactions as Election Com- missioners. Vote for every one of them. Let us put an end to election scandals and make sure of a Board of Commissioners who will be a credit to the City and im- partial managers of all,elections. The other natlons of the world have their separate and independent political organizations for the purpose of work- ing out for themselves the highest des- tiuy possible. They owe no allegiance to this Government; they contribute nothing to its support, either in war or in peace, and if they are to come into this country and compete with our peo- ple, We say that you can do it upon con- dition that a tariff shall be put npon your products, and that tariff wil! go to- ward sustaining this Government, and at the same time will be a defense to our own laborers and producers.—McKinley, BRING OUT 1THE VOTE. The Weather Bureau reports as a fore- cast for California to-day fair weather with brisk westerly winds. Thisis a good omen for the success of the Republican party. The nien who compose that party, representing as they do the classes who are most accustomed to the comforts and couveniences of cultured life, are too often fair-weather voters. With the most earn- est desire for the welfare of the country, they are not infrequently over-sanguine in their dependence upon the popular vote, and when the weather is bad neglect to perform the duty of citizens by going to the polls and voting and working for the ticket which stands for Natioual pros- perity. To-day the forecast is for fair weather, and for that reason we may look fora large Republicanvote. Should the weather chenge suddenly, however, there sbould be no change in the determination of good citizens to go to the polls. Be the weather good or bad, there is but one election day. ‘Whoever wishes to vote for sound money, for protection, for law and order, must vote to-day. The best plan for every one to adopt is to go to the polls and vote as early as pos- sible in the day, and then give whatever time he can spare to the work of bringing out others. The vote of every'right think- ing man should be polled. The sentiment of the business men and industrious work- ingmen of California is overwhelmincly on the side of McKinley and Hobart. That much was made evident by thegreat parade on Saturday. Public sentiment, however, will avail little to-day. Theonly thing that will count now isa vote. Un- less the full strength of Republicans and honest money Demorats is registered at the polls by ballots cast for the Republican Presidential electors all that has been done in the campaign for sound money and good government will go for nothing. All over the Union ballots wiil be falling in the ballot-boxes to-day as fast as au- tumnal leaves when they are strewn by the winds of November. 1f they are cast from motives of patriotism ana with an intelligent desire to serve the welfare of the Republie, they will be a blessing to every industry and to every citizen. But if cast from motives of prejudice, hate or passion they are likely to prove injurious to every hope of the Republic and every good of the people. It is true that the vitality.of the Re- public will not be affected by the re- suit, but it is equally true that its pros- perity will largely depend upon which side the majority of the ballots is cast. The issues before us are not slight nor transient. They will have long-lasting effect upon the history of the Nation, and it is therefore a solemn duty on the part of every good citizen to vote for that side which tends to maintain the growing good of the American people and the honorand integrity of the Nation. T have heard men say that with free silver they could sell their property at increased price and pay off thelr mort- gage with the money. Is that homest? No man nor nation can afford te be dis- honest. Every nation that has done so hassuffered. Whenever you take from a man the hatred of what is wrong you make him so low that he pulls down with him all who associate with him, — General L. T. Michene: VOTE_FOR_NINE. California is entitled to nine representa- tives in the electoral college. Every voter in Oalifornia is entitled to vote for the whole nine. This fact should be borne in mind at the polls. No voter should vote for less than the full number of Presiden- tial electors, for by doing otherwise he would deprive himself of a portion of his rights as a citizen of the United States. The nine men to be voted for are with their voting numbers as follows: 10. IRVING M. BCOTT. 11. DUNCAN E. McKINLAY. 12. GEORGE M. FRANCIS. 13. JULIUS M. WALLING. 14. HOWELL A. POWELL. 15. JOSEPH 8. SPEAR JR. 16. CLAUS SPRECKELS. 17. ELWOOD COOPER. 18. THOMAS FLINT. These men represent the Republican party of California. If elected they will vote for McKinley and Hobart for Presi- dent and Vice-President of the United States. Every one of them should be elected. If either of them should be de- feated there will be one vote less in the electoral college for the Republican can- didates. All advocates of prosperity, all champions of sound money, all supporters of law and order, all opponents of Bryan, Altgeld and Tillman, Coxey and Debs should vote for. these men. Bear in mind you are entitled to vote for every one of them. Don’t forget it at the poils. Vote for nine. THE LEGISLATIVE TIOKET. As at present constituted the Senate of the United Btates is in the hands of neither of the great political parties of the country. Republicuns and Democrats are nearly tied, and the Populists and free silverites hold the balance of power. A strong fight is being made in every State where a Eenator is to be elected forthe purpose of winning control of the Senate for one side or the other. To that fight every voter must direct his attention. The next Legislature of California is to elect a United States Senator. Whether he is to be a Repmbiican who stands for protection and sound money or an advo- cate of free trade and free sitver depends upon the constitution of the Legislature of the State. If the people of California de- sire that their industries should be pro- tected they must elect a protectionist Senator this winter. Stephen M. White, the Democratic free-trader, will bold over, and if a protectionist is not elected we will have in the United States Senate no representative of California to look after our industries when the tariff is revised, as it surely will be by the next Congress. Every citizen will see from this the im- portance of electing Republicans to the State Legislatuge. Vote for the Repub- lican candidates for the Assembly and the State Senate in your district. If they are defeated the majority in the Legislature may be in the handsof the fusion man- agers, and that would almost surely mean the election to the Senate of Thomas V. Cator. The issue involved in the legis- Iative ticket is therefore one of the most important now before the people. ‘We must send to the United States Sen- ate 8 man who will support the McKinley administration. Bear this in mind. Talk of it to your friends. Work as well as vote for the legisiative ticket. The Re- publican candidates should be elected in every district in this City in order that the State may be made sure of a United States Senator who will represent its people and defend its industries. WHERE TO SEE TRE BULLETINS, There is but one bulletin board in San Francisco to-day where the news of the election can be read by many thousand people without the slightest incon- venience or straining of the eyes. That splendid stretch of canvas is on the great CaLL building, Third and Market streets. The day bulletins will be displayed in front of THE Cavry business office, and the night news will be flashed by stereopticon upon a canvas 20x36 feet, which is stretched in front of the fourth story of the new CALL buildine. The public will have an unbroken yview from O'Farrell and Market streets aimost to Montgomery, and from'a point nearly as far as Post street on Kearny. Thus thousands will be able to read the news without huddling into little crowds in the middle of the street, thereby taking the risk of being run over by vehicles. The height of the large builetin sheet is such that it is plainly visible for a long distance, ana nobody’s head will obscure anybody else’s view. . TuE CALL, moreover, will give the latest, most accurate and complete returns that money and modern facilities can produce. Returns from every State in the Union and from the great news centers will be flashed upon the canvas without delay. The bulletins wiil be written on glass with india ink, or impre:sed upon gelatine slides by the typewriter process, so as to be legible to all without the slightest straining.ef the eyes. Arrangements have been perfected for speedy retarns from every precinct in the City, and the results of voting on the mu- nicipal ticket will be flashed upon the can- vas at the earliest possible moment. Tre CALL'S service on the general result will consist of the United Associated Press returns, which are now admitted to be the most complete and accurate in the United States. If you want to know the news at the earliest possible moment to-night station yourself anywhere along Market or Kearny streets within sight of THE CALL'S mammoth new building, and the stereop- ticon will do the rest. WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE. Vote for amendment No. 6. It proposes to change the present law by omitting the word male in defining the qualifications of electors in this State. It gives suffrage to the women of California as weil as toy| men. It establishes equality before the law and confers upon all the people the rights which have hitherto been confined to one-half of them only. The women of California deserve the right to vote. They have shared with men all the burdens and toil and dangsrs of building up this State from its former condition ot a Mexican province to its present proud position as one of the lead- ing commonwealths of the American Re- public. Women were among the pioneers of the State. They aided in its early set- tlement. They assisted in providing its schools, its churches and its homes, Their influence transformed the roughness of the early days into the culture that exists now. They are among the foremost edn- cators of the State, among its most earnest and industrious workers, and not a few of them rank among its greatest taxpayers. ‘Women have rights which are affected by legislation as well as men. They have interests to be guarded by good laws as well as men. They have property to be taxed as well as men. Their intelligence, their integrity and their patriotism, to say the least, is not less than that of men. To them, therefor-, by every principle of reason, justice and expediency is the privi- lege of voting to be accorded. The Re- publican party, in its State convention, pledged itself to support the cause of woman’s suffrage, and that pledge should be remembered and kept by every Re- publican at the polls. Nor should it be Republicans only who vote for the amenament. The issue is one which appeals to the better instincts of men of all parties. All therefore should vote for it. Let us make this day a day of triumph, not only for National prospe rity but for the enfran- chisement of the women of California. BEWARE OF OANARDS., ' Beware of canards. Beware of false cir- culars. Bewars of false statements con- cerning candidates or parties which may be circulated to-day. All things which pertain to this campaign and are true have been published before this. Whatever new statements may be sent round to-day are almost sure to be false. If there were any truth in them they would not have been held back until it is to lateto answer them. Let every voter therefore be on his guard againsc all attacks which may be made upon candidates to-day. It isa common trick with Democracy to try and stem the tide going against it by issuing either on election day or during the closing days of the campaign state- ments affecting Republican candidates which they have no oppoutunity to re- fute. We had a disastrous experience of those tactics in the notorlous Morey letter which was circulated through the State to defeat Garfield. Such a trick having been played upon us once it will be the fault of ourselves if we permit a similar trick to obtain success this time. Vote for McKinley and Hobart. Vote for Republican Congressmen. Vote for Republican legislators. Vote for Colonel Taylor and the Republican municipal ticket. Pay no attention to any stories that may be circulated about them by the, fusion managers, There will be canards, there will be circulare containing false re- ports, there will be a resort made to every trick which falseness can conceive and im- pudence utter to defeat Republitan candi- dates. Refute them on the streets. Re- buke them at the polls. Vote a straight ticket for National prosperity and a good municipal government. 3 On & recent buckboard ride at Calals, Me., there were four grandmothers and one great- grandmother present.

Ladies Assist in the Celebra- tion at the Audito- rium. LONG LIST OF ABLE SPEAKERS- An Enthusiastic Audiencs Loudly Ap- plauds Republican Doc- trine. What was styled “the last grand jubilee of the campaign of 1896” was held in the Auditorium last evening, under the au- spices of the McKinley Invincibles. The term of ‘jubilee” was not misap- plied, for the house was crowded with enthusiastic and cheering advocates of McKinley and Hobart, protection and- sound money. - A large attendance of iadies was a feature. In honor of them a handsome souvenir on gold-colored paper was circnlated containing an interesting and varied programme. The exercises of the evening began sim- ultaneously in doors and out. An orches- tra played a mealey of patriotic tunes, some of which had to be repeated in re- sponse to the demands of the larze audience. A firing squad on the outside of the building dis- played rockets, while the crowd was gathering and until about time for the exercises to begin. A large part of the stage was given up to the ladies, who oc- cupied practically all except the front row of seats, which were reserved for the pre- siding officer, the vice-presidents and the speakers of the evening. The formal programme was opened by “Who Shall He Be?” with the refrain of “McKinley’s the Man,” sung by a chorus of male voices. Every mention of Mec- Kinley’s name was received with applause and the singers were compelled to return and sing another song of the patriotic sort. J. B. Stetson, the presiding officer, then said that it was th time-honored custom of the Invincibles to hold a praise service the nizht before the election, At this meeting there would be no attempt to in- flance the mind of any one. Theminds of all were practically made up. Those pres- ent were only waiting for to-morrow toar- rive to vote for McKinley. [Applause.] E. F. Preston said that diseussion was no longer necessary. The issues had al- ready been placed before the American people. The battle had already been fought and had already been won. Never had.there peen such a cam- paign; never such a cleavage[of party lines t2 rally around the flag and the constitu- tion. [Applause.] When man was cre- ated, in nis breast was planted the in- stinct of self-preservation, and from that instinet came government, The battle, Mr. Preston repeated, had been fought and been won. The parade of Saturday was typical of the condition of the pubiic mind throughout the United States, when all classes of men forsook their daily work to march, each carrying an American flag. The wave of socialism, of anarchism would beat against a solid rock. To-mor- row McKinley would beelected and Bryan and even Altgeld would know that the American people would have no more of them. [Cheers and applause.] Miss Amy C. Hickox sang the “*Ameri- can Hymn,” and responded to an engore with a repetit:on. Edgar D. Peixotto the arguments have been made. All that was left to be done was to ratify Republican principles and the Republican candidate. He had attended Democratic meetings, but counid learn nothing there. There was no hope in the Demoecratic party. The Republi- can party would give to the people pros- perity and work to labor. Henry 1. Kowalsky reported that he had spoken in ail the districts in San Fran- cisco. The indications were that the Re- publican party would bid good-by to Dem- ocratic fallacies for a long time. Sam Booth and the California guartet came in dressed 1n working ciothes in the character of tinkers, with tin pans to ;::;nd, and sang a song about “McKinley’s L* Mrs. Nellie Holbrook-Blinn spoke in favor of the sixth amendment, addressing the audience as ‘fellow-Republicans,’ She said that the Republican platform of 1896 remained true to Republican princi- ples as they have been since the party came into power. Protection was still a cardinal point of Republican belief. The party was now striving for the restoration’ of business prosperity without compro- mise. The shibboleth is, “Down with repudiators.” The Republican E.“y was opposed to socialists and anarchists and to those who threatened the very life of the Nation. The Chicago convention embraced the most dangerous elements in the country and in a moment of emotional insanity they nominated a man who was noted not for his statemanship but for his gab. W. A. Richardson said he haa found out that California is all right. Southern California would give 10,000 majority for McKinley. Mr. Richardson criticised the Chicago convention and said that no one said that all ever accused it of being Democratic. He styled Senator Stewart ‘‘that long-tailed bird of Paradise who flies through heaven, and is too honest to nest longer with the Republicans, and so roosts with Altgeid and Pitchfork Till- man.” The only silver man in the Bible was Judas, and he became so disgusted with the silver question that he wens out and hanged himself. The Knickerbocker Quartet sang “Me- Kinley is the Man,” and for an encore, “Good-by, Free Silver, Good-by."” A. P. Van Duzer said he did not want five minutes in which to convert a Demo- crat. The Democrats were aiready con- verted. McKinley was a man to talk about. He went into the army as a boy. He was no holiday solaier, but stood in t e front rank. His met- tle was tried ~in the Shenandoah Valley, riding into & volcano of flame and leading out =& brigade that was sur- rounded. hero, for he h archy was about to throat of the Republic that hero wi ready to save the country. This was a fid time to remew allegiance to the erican flag. Miss Amy C. Hickox sang another patriotic aofig. Mrs. J. Murray Bailey said that the trouble with Bryan was that he wanted too much freedom and too little law. [Ap- lause.] It took a brave motherhood to d the country. The first child born after the arrival of the Mayflower was a girl, which would seem to indicate that the sex was early on hand and not inclined to _shirk responsibil- ity. [?nln\un.] Women did much to lead to the result at Appo. mattox. With such heroic ancestry, gow could women fail at this time to take an active interest in public affairs and the wellfare of the Republic. She was a Re- and much as she valued the ;Lm its knife to th ul B lot she wonid rather be a Republi-| with no_ ballot than a %el:no‘c':mnwam-n with two _ballots. [Appiause and cheers.] The Republi- can party stood Itke an adamantine rock for honesty, protection and patriot- ism. Every woman should make it her duty to urge upon all her gentlemen friends and acquaintances to vote for Mc- Kinley, because around him cluster all f better times. mir':grfh"e quartet had enlivened the proceedings Wwith two more songs Mrs, Nellie Holbrook - Blinn recited “Old Glory.” o Andy Branch was the last speaker. He explained why he was a Republican in a nvincing manner and was loudly ::a‘;ryl::ded. There were more songs and the jubilee ended with cheers for McKin- ley and Hobart. PERSONAL. J. C.

A HOSPITAL ESTABLISHED. The Disease Is Serious and Painful to the Victims, but Not Many Fatalities Are Reported. A new epidemic is spreading with star- tling rapidity among the horses of the City. Veterinary surgeons have for the past four or five days been kept on the jump in answer to calls from every quarter of the City. The complaint is a form of influenza, affecting the mucous lining of the bowels. Technically the disease is known as an enteric form of influenza. Victims of it suffer greatly. The early symptoms are a dullness and loss of appetite, followed shortly by evidences of internal suffering. The horse begins to paw and to stretch out his fore leg as if appealing for relief. He will, as his suffering increases, lie down and roll, and in every way manifest his distress. The surgeons say the disease 1s not par- ticularly dangerous, but out of a great number affected two or three deaths have been reported. Dr. Egan has established a hospital near his Golden Gate avenne office, where there are no less than eighteen horses now afflictea with the disease, all gath- ered 1n within the past tive days. ‘I have scarcely had any sleep forthree nights past,” said Dr. Egan vesterday, *“I got to bed at hall-past 1 o’clock yesterday morning and was called up at 4 o'clock, and from that time until 10 at night I was on the go from one place to another. There certainly seems to be an epidemic on, but I do not think it is dangerous. I have had but one fatal ease so far.” The disease does not confine itself to any class or condition of horses. Some of Lioyd Tevis’ and other well-known family horses are affected. A vote for McKinley and Hobart is & vote for more work, more money and more prosperity.
