Arthur Rodgers, Regent of the State University—The idea of the Red Cross Fair is a noble one, and there cannot be any doubt as to the success of the project. The fair will receive the enthusiastic support of the people of the State of California. Every one is willing and anx- fous to contribute his mite to a fund that is to be devoted solely to aid- ing those who have left their homes and families to fight under the 0000000000000 00D0CO0000000OD000O00O00000O0 | | o o o o o ] o o o [} o o o o Every one is willing to help and there | should not be any difficulty in making the fair a success. A general commit- tee of, say 100, should be appointed and ach county in the State invited to ake an active interest in the matter. I feel satisfied that the railroad com- | pany will, under the circumstances, | grant free transportation to accredited | representatives from the interigr and also bring here and safely return all ex- | hibits. By all means let us have the fair, for I know that it will be a grand success, both financially and otherwise. | I. W. HELLMAN JR.—The idea of having a fair in this city, to be par- ticipated in by all the counties in the State, the proceeds to go to the Red Cross League, is an excellent one. Too much cannot be done for such a worthy object. This fair would give an oppor- tunity to those not yet called on to help the soldiers now fighting in the defense of this country. It would undoubtedly attract im-| mense crowds and would net a large amount without taxing any one indi- | vidually. The plan proposed would make it an | object of interest for every one, and I do not doubt that besides the attend- ance of citizens of this city excursions would come from all the surrounding counties. WEDDED AMID PINK ‘ AND WHITE BLOSSOMS NUPTIALS OF MISS KELLY AND E. J. DOLLARD. Elaborate Church Ceremony at St.| Dominic’s, Followed by a Brilliant Reception. St. Dominic's Church was crowded to the doors last evening with a fashionable audience that had assembled to witness | the nuptials of Miss Mary Theresa Kelly and Edward J. Dollard. Pink and white fragrant blossoms, ar- tistically arranged by the loving hands of | the bride’s friends, made the church beau- | tiful and furnished the color tone of the functions. | Long before the hour announced for the | ceremony, 8:30 o’clock, the invited guests began to arrive, but so efficiently had the | ughers performed their duties that when the bridal march announced the arrival of the wedding party, all were comfort- ably seated. The ushers, Messrs. Hugh McGinniss, Fred Farmar, Willlam Humphreys and John Mahony, followed by the brides- maids, Miss Annle Xelly, Miss Daisy Keane, Miss Laura Kelly and Miss Doro- thy Quinn, met the bride and her maid of honor, Miss Lizzie Mahony, at the church door and proceeded up the center alsle to the sanctuary where the groom and his best man, Arthur W. Dollard, awalited thelr coming. Here, standing in the midst of deilcate blossoms, Father Riley pro- nounced the holy binding words.

Each claim must be accompanied by a | schedule of the stamps presented for exchange, | showing, in columns under appropriate head- inge, thé number of each denomination, date of purchase, discount allowed at time of purchase, it any, and amount paid. There should also be forwarded with the stamps returned to the collector for exchange an order for stamps at new rate of tax, speci ing the denominations desired; the total net value of new stamps ordered 'being made to correspond as near as practicable to the total nei value of the stamps returned for exchange. Where it is impracticable to order new stamps exactly corresponding in value to those re- turned, the order for such new stamps should be made for an amount slightly exceeding the \alue of those returned, and there should be transmitted with such order the amount neces- | sary to make good the deficfency in stamps re. turned. | Where a number of stamps are presented, | collectors must be allowed reasonable time for | examination of the claims, counting of the amps, and verification by their records of the dates of purchase and discount allowed. As the redemption of stamps which have been purchased for three vears is forbldden by law, such stamps cannot be exchanged, Upon receipt of stamps for exchange, with a claim and schedule as above provided, accom- panied, where necessary, by money to make g00d deficiency in stamps returned, collectors | will, as soon as practicable therafter, have the stamps counted, and, If found correct, note | the fact on the schedule.

HIS WITHDRAWAL INJURES MAGUIRE'S CHANCES. Recent Events That Are Considered | Favorable to the Candidacy | Lieutenant Governor Jeter. Mayor Phelan is not seeking nor does | he desire the nomination for Governor | on the Democratic ticket. This is| | final and authoritative and may be con- | | sidered as one of the few certainties | that are to be drawn from the whirl- pool of Democratic dissension. | “You may say that I am not a can- | didate for the gubernatorial nomina- tion,” sald the Mayor yesterday, “and | T trust that the statement will set at rest any conclusions that may have been drawn concerning my position as regards State politics.” The fact that Phelan is no longer a | factor in the race for the place at the head of the Democratic ticket will not | prove to be welcome news to the friends | of Congressman Maguire. These friends | have contended that with Phelan in the race for Governor the support of | other candidates would be so weakened | by his candidacy that Maguire would | stand an excellent chance of carrying off the plum. Now that the Mayor is | no longer a factor, the candidacy of at least, one other aspirant becomes so for- | midable that the probability that Ma- guire will not secure the nomination | becomes almost a certainty. | Now that Phelan has dropped out of | the race for the nomination the list of | those who will put in claims for the | place at the head of the ticket is re- | duced to Maguire, J. H. Seawell, H. | M. LaRue and Lieutenant Governor Jeter. Frank H. Gould's recent state- ment that he is not a candidate is ta-| ken as the true definition of his posi- | tion. As the candidacy of Seawell and La | Rue is not considered to be formidable in any sense of the word, the fight ap- pears to have narrowed down to Ma- guire and Jeter. This brings the ques- tion back to the point of the signifi- cance of Phelan's withdrawal from the race. The recent alliance between Governor Budd and Ma Phelan is well known and may now be as well understood. The part taken by the Governor in the appointment of the un- popular City and County Committee was the first visible evidence that the two executives had come to an under- | standing. This understanding appears to have been made on the basis of the proposition that “You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.” In other words, will aid Phelan to | again become Mayor of San Francisco | ayor will assist Budd to defeat | Maguire. Budd's enmity to Maguire is | well known and of long standing, and | it has long been an open secret that| Jeter is the administration candidate for the Democratic nomination for Gov- | With Phelan in the race for the nomination the candidacy of Jetur\ would be irreparably weakened. With | Phelan out of the race and pledged tnl throw his support to the administra- | tion candidate Jeter's chances of suc- | cess become so bright that Maguire's candidacy is rendered almost hopeless. Regarding the comparative strength of the two candidates the following | figures showiny the vote cast in the | Fourth Congressional District in No- vember, 1894, tell their own story: J. H. Budd W. T. Jeter J. G. Maguire | for for for | Governor. Lieut. Gov. Congress. | 18,833. 15,164. 14,748. | This was in Maguire’s own district, where he is supposed to have more strength than in any other district in | | the State. At that time Jeter was a comparative stranger to the voters of | the State while Maguire was at ‘the| height of his popularity. Even under | these conditions 416 more votes were | cast for Jeter than for Maguire. This is | | an argument that cannot be success- fully combatted by the sophists who are | prating of the rreat personal popularity | of the Congressman. Since the election | of 1894 Jeter has gained a host of friends and has made no enemies, while Maguire, by his utterances concerning American sailors, as well as by the manner in which he has promuigated his single-tax theories to the detriment of the farmers and the working cla has minimized the popularity of wh! he may at one time have boasted the | possession. | Recent reports of Maguire's desire to | retire from a contest that he now be- | lieves to be hopeless are given credence by men in his own party who are in touch with political events. They pro- | fess to believe that at the proper time | he will publicly announce his determin- ation to retire from the gubernatorial race and that he will give as a reason | for the step the belief that his duty to | the people and himself demands that | he carry out the work he has begun in Congress. Acting on this belief he will | ask for the Congressional nomination in_the Fourth District. Mayor Phelan’s declination to take | more than a passive part in State poli- tics leads to the conclusion that he has | finally made up his mind to remain at the head of municipal affairs as long as he is permitted to do so by the citizens of San Francisco. Hls friends declare that it is his ambition to be elected Mayor at the coming election, and that after serving one year he will ask the voters of this city to elect him Mayor under the provisions of the new charter which goes into effect at the beginning of the year 1900, provided it is ratified by the Legislature next winter. To accomplish this becomingly mod- est ambition it will be necessary for him to have control of the political ma- chinery of his party, a condition neces- sary as the first step in the task of se- curing the majority of votes cast at two succeeding elections. As a prelim- inary move in this direction the Mayor has, with the assistance of his friends and new-found allies, brought about the appointment of the Democratic City and County Committee, an organi- zation so unpopular that it is already threatened with dissolution or some- thing worse. The Mayor denies that he ever gave voice to the statement that he had turned his aristocratic back onsthe voters who have a place of residence south of Market street, but the personnel of his committee is suf- ficlent proof of the fact that he has drawn the greater part of his council- men from the aristocratic precincts of the Western Addition and has given the “marble heart” to the Democrats south of t Py holds. The following table, published once before in these columms, shows the manner in which the new City and County Committee was appointed, and may be taken as proof of the assertion that in the selection of the committee- men a direct and intentional slight was put upon those districts that have al- ways been and are now the strongholds of the Democratic party of this city: Assembly District.

The labor organizations have denounced the one and the other respectable ele- ments of the community that have ban- ished the other will no doubt join hands at the coming election for the purpose of demonstrating to the ambitious Mayor that the candidate who bids for the support of such corruptionists is | not to be trusted with the position of chief executive of the city of San Francico. The men who are responsible for the existence of the new City and County Committee are becoming badly fright- ened at the position in which they find themselves and their white elephant, the committee, and advice is being sought for in all directions. Senator White has been apprised of the situa- tion and an urgent plea has been made to him to come at once to San Fran- cisco and lend his ald and his influence to stem the tide of insurrection. He has heeded the call so far as to consent to view the situation at close range, and he is due to arrive here within a week or ten days. What his action will be when he becomes aware of the true state of affairs remains to be seen. PRESSED BY CREDITORS. Friedlander & Co. Attached to Secure the Payment of Two Promis- sory Notes.
