THE SAN FRANCISCO MAGUIRE AS A POLITICAL MESSIAH Organizer of the Land and Labor Party. DENOUNCED THE DEMOCRATS | BARRY AND HINTON WERE HIS LIEUTENANTS. | | A Chapter o: Political History Con- | tained in a Small But Interest- 4 ing Pamphlet Issued in | 1887. I | ‘When James G. Maguire deserted [hei Democratic party in 1§87 he probably had no idea that in 1898 he would be- come the Populist-Silver Republican- | Democratic candidate for Governor. Had the contrary been the case he would probably not have called the members and leaders of the party bad names nor would he have declared, as | he did declare, that he could no longer | associate with those members and lead- | ers and retain his seif-respect. One of the reasons that induced Judge | Maguire to shake the dust of the Demo- | cratic party from his feet was the be- | lief that he had a “call.” He believed | that he was the chosen disciple of a | new political religion that was to cure | all the ills to which the flesh is heir. This party was the Land and Labor party, and it was by promoting its principles that Maguire hoped to achieve greatness. Judge Maguire made reference to this new party in his letter declaring his withdrawal from the Democratic party. | After briefly outlinihg its principles he | 1d To the new party founded on these | ciples, which I conceive to be the soul and essence of true democ- all of the time which I can hence- | forth give to the political service of my | ry will be devoted.” ere is still in existence a small, r-bound pamphlet that contains all | interesting to know of the party | t once held all the hopes and aims | f the present pinto candidate for Gov- | It was issued early in the year from the printing office of James . Barry, the “logical successor of Ma- guire as Congressman from the Fourth District.” On one of the outer covers of the pamphlet Barry makes public the fact that he is the publisher of the “Weekly Star, a journal of progress, reform ‘and literature.” He also an- | that it is the “people’s paper,” | and that it is the “official organ of the | Land and Labor party of California.” In otnote he says that “ev .y riber paying in advance will -nted with a copy of Henry George's book, ‘Progress and Poverty,’ | latest work, ‘Social Problems.’ > | 1e front-page anno@ncement is that | pamphlet contains the “principles, | nstitution and pledge of the Land d Labor party of California.” The | ents of the pamphlet are as fol- racy LAND AND LABOR PARTY.

What the Declaration of Independ- ence says: The Declarationof Independence, drawn in l'LTTG by Thomas Jefferson, affirms as | follows: | We hold these truths to be self-evident, | that all men are created equal, that they | are endows by their Creator with cer- | tain inallenable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happi- ness. That to secure these rights gov- ernments are instituted among men, de- riving their just powers from the con- sent of the governed: that whenever any form of government becomes de- | structive of these ends, it is, the right of the people to alter or abolish it and to institute a new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organ- izing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. 1L iiow the present lates this doctrine. We indorse every word in the above de- and_declare that the present methods of administration of national, | State and municipal governments in the | United States are destructive of the ends | which are therein declared to be the proper purposes of government, because— | First—Government permits the monopo- | lization of land by individuals and syndi- | excluding the people from their | tural and rightful ownership of the | me of living, since the land of the nation belongs to the people of the nation and their title to it is an inalienable right. Second—Government has permitted the 1ctions of transportation and communi- cation to be monopolized by artificial per- sons, called corporations, enabling them 1o control the production and fix prices of many necessaries of life, dictate the pros- or destruction of towns, firms and luals, and thus levy unjust tribute eople for the private benefit of Government vio- claration, ed to of pers beyond i ons and combinations 1al vileges, above and general rights as citizens, are enabled to unduly con- v exccutive and judiclal departments of the Government, to the In- jury of the State and nation, and of the people thereof. L What the Land and Labor party de- mands. We therefore declare that the applica- tion of the following principles to the affairs of government is absolutely de- manded by the public necessities: First—That taxation should be laid only on land values exclusive of buildings and other improvements. Second—That all poll taxes, road taxes, license charges on business (except for the protection of public morals), and all taxes’on personal property should be abolished. Third—That specie and paper cur- rency shonld be issued exclusively by the National Government, and that the present national bank system should be abolished. ‘ Fourth—That the Government should assume the nwnerihll and control of rail- road and telegraph lines. fitth-That the importation of alten contract labor, and the use of domestic convict labor in competition with free la- bor are public evils and should be prohib- Ited. Slxth—That United States = Senators their | political party. | ducers of the country are impelled to | as reader, who ¢ should be elected by the direct vote of the people. o 33 Seventh—That bribe gi\ing or taking in order to influence political or official ac- tion should permanently disqualify the of- fender for the exercise of the elective franchise, and for holding any public of- ce. Tighth—That the importation or immi- gration of Chinese should be prohibited, and it should be the policy of the State and the people to discourage the employ- ment of Chinese in any kind of industry. Ninth—That the waters of the State should be the general property of the whole people, to be held and distributed under the public authority. Tenth—That the ownership of land by aliens should be prohibited. It is idle to expect the promotion of these principles by any existing Therefore the pro- = independent political action as the Land and Labor party, secure by every lawful means the election of officials who shall embody these principles in laws and shall | carry them into practical effect. CONSTITUTION. | (Local Club.) L. This Club shall be known as Land and Labor Club No. — of , California. IL Its purposes are to maintain and advo- cate the principles of the Land and Labor party, and to further such political action as that party may ;lvfirpusc in this State. The officers of this club shall be a Pres- ident, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, who, with the addition of three members to be chosen by a majority vote by and from the mer of the club, all constitute the Executive Board of the club. V. The officers shall perform the duties usually appertaining to their espective of- fices, V. Any citizen of California shall be eligible to membership if he be willing to take the subjoined pledge. Every new member shall be required to pay his initiation fee and one month's dues in advance and to sign the annexed pledge and platform. No non-member shall be permitted to par- ticipate in discussion. VL The initiation fee shall be $1 00, and the monthly dues — cents. The club shall hold meetingsevery week for the purpose of reading se- lections from ‘Progress and Poverty” or “Social Problems” or other eco- nomic works for discussion thereon, and the transaction of necessary business. The treasurer shall make a quarterly report of all moneys received and dis- bursed by the club, which shall be exam- ined and verified by the executive board, and shall forward monthly to the treas- urer at San Francisco the sum of 10 cents per member, to be expended by the State | Central Committee in extenaing the work of the party throughout the State. The following shall be the order of busi- ness at the regular meetings of the club: 1. Calling of the roll. 2. Introduction and election of members. 3. Payment of dues. 4. Proposition of new members. Reading of communications; miscel- 1 s business. 6. Regular literary exercises, which must be educational, instructing the members on the principles of the party and qualifying them to take an active part in promoting its influence and power. A proper person shall be selected to act 1 read at each meet- ing at least one chapter of the works named in article VII of this constitution, and discussion shall be had thereon, each speaker being allowed five minutes, and no member to speak more than once until | | all have spoken who so desire. The regu- lar reading and discussion may be sup- plemented by reading of original or se- lected articles. 7. Adjournment. PLEDGE. I pledge myself to obey the laws and rules of the Land and Labor party that are or may be established; that I will use my best efforts to se- cure harmony in all its deliberations; that I will use every proper means to promote its purpose; that I will vote for and support with all my in- fluence the candidates it may agree upon for public office, municipal, to promote its purposes; that I will licly maintain and defend its men and measures whenever called upon to do so; that on election day I will work at the polls as directed by the executive committee, and that I will keep secret all the private transac- tions of the executive committee and of the club. It will be noticed that many of the gentlemen who at that time assoclated themselves with Maguire for the pur- poses set forth in the pamphlet are still with him and are now either assisting him to control the affairs of the Popu- | list, Silver Republican and Democratic pariies or are themselves candidates for office. Amcng the number whose names are more familiar to the general public are Joseph Leggett, James H. Barry, William M. Hinton and Walter Gal- lagher. In 1886 Hinton was a candidate for Mayor on the Labor ticket and re- ceived 1435 votes. In the following year he and Barry and the others joined Ma- guire, the Land and Labor party Mes- siah. Now they are stanch Democrats, enthusiastic Populists and conservative Silver Republicans—and are all candi- dates for office. B — Dewey Republicans. The executive committee of the Dewey Central Republican Club met last evening at headquarters in the Columbian build- | ing. P. B. Gallagher presided. The com- mittee on conference reported progress | and was granted a further extension of time. On motion the secretary was instructed to notify all members to meet at their clubrooms in order to attend in a body the ratification meeting on Saturday evening. P. H. Lynch, Charles Carlson and R. S. Soloman were appointed a committee on banner, with Instructions to procure a permit to siretch the same across Market street. - The Curry Club.

A VERY LIVELY SESSION PUBLIC OFFICIALS HELD UP FOR CRITICISM. Delegate Webster Wanted the Party to Denounce Certain Supervis- ors and School Directors for Past Acts. The Citizens’ Non-Partisan conven- tion met in the Academy of Sciences building last night and after a lengthy discussion adopted the platform pre- sented a week ago. A few minor changes were made in it. J. 8. Webster made two ineffectual attempts to have a plank put in the platform denouncing the Supervisors and members of the Board of Educa- tion. who he considered had betrayed the pledges given by them when they were nominated by the party two years ago. Webster made a persistent fight, but was outvoted each time. After the calling of the roll, Chairman Fitch announced that the first order of business would be the adoption of a platform. 3 E. J. Le Breton then said that he did not consider the plank relating to the pledging of the legislative nominees to ratify the new charter strong enough. He believed that all legislative @spir- ants coming before the convention for nomination or indorsement should be required to sign a written pledge to support the charter before their names were voted upon. After a discussion lastinig over half an hour it was decided to amend that section of the platform so as to conform with the“ideas of Le Breton. The next objection raised was to the section providing that the tax levy be fixed at $1 on the $100 on an assessed valuation of $350,000,000. Ex-Mayor Ellert was of the opinion that it would be impossible to keep within that limit on an assessed valua- tion of $350,000,000. He believed that the limit should be placed at $1 on the | $100, exclusive of the amount necessary to be raised for the interest for the sinking fund and the improvement of public parks and squares. The majority of the delegates did not agree with Ellert, kowever, and the sec- tion v-as allowed to stand as originally presented. Delegate Mahoney next objected to the pure food section of the platform. “The expenses of the Board of Health have been raised from $25,000 to $125,000 a year within a few months,” said he, “and I do not consider that we can indorse any such expenditure. I believe that we should indorse the pure food campaign, but not the ex- travagant manner in which it is being carried out.” Delegates Denicke and Sbarboro spoke in favor of the section, and said that while the work of forcing dealers to sell pure food might be costly, many lives had been saved, especially those of infants. Delegate Cummings belleved that the entire section should be stricken out, and very broadly intimated that the pure-food laws were being used for purposes of extortion. “It is now a case of pay,” said he, “or be killed if you are in business.” George Center gave it as his opinion that there were too much extrava- gance in the management of the pure- food department. “while T am in accord with any health measure,” said he, “I must say that I believe too much money is being spent on the pure-food question.” ‘When the question of striking out the section was put to a vote, it was de- feated by an almost unanimous vote. J. S. Webster then exploded a bomb- shell by moving that section 15, endors- ing the administration of Mayor Phe- The administration of munlclg:l during the past two years has n a de- plorable failure, due to the violation of their pledges by the maljority of the Board of Supervisors and the Board of Education. e especially condemn Law- rence Devany of the Board of aw = ors, and Charles L. Barrington, jomas Carew and Samuel L. Waller of the Board of Education, nominees of the Non-Partisan party, who have proven false to the trust reposed in them by us, and who have been conspicuously guilty with the other members of the majority of both boards in a shameless disregard of the interests of the citizens. In strike ing contrast to their shameful actions, we warmly commend the manly and hon- est course of C. A. Clinton, Washington Dodge and John Lackmann of the Board of Supervisors. We also heartily com- mend the able and efficient administra- tion of Mayor Phelan, In the fearless per- formance of his official duty at all times. Delegate Cummings at once objected to the plank. “We are preparing a platform,” said he, “and I always understood that a platform was a declaration of prin- ciples, not a denunciation of men.” “I object to the indorsement of ‘Washington Dodge,” exclaimed George Center, “for he is a pledge-breaker. If we are going to mention any names let us mention all our faithful public ser- vants."” Webster explained that while there were other worthy officlals, his reso- lution only dealt with those who were nominated by the Non-Partisans. Ex-Mayor Ellert took the floor in de- fense of Dr. Dodge and indignantly de- nied that the Supervisor from the Sixth Ward had ever broken any pledges. Barclay Henley said that he believed in placing the brand on all unfaithful officials and those who were recreant to the trust reposed in them. Delegates Hallidayand Cummings ob- jected to introducing the resolution as being made part of the platform, and finally got a ruling from the chairman that the matter was out of order. The original section was thereupon allowed to stand. ‘Webster made another attempt to get the convention to place itself on record and offered the substitute as a resolu- tion. He was beaten again, for a mo- tion to lay the entire subject matter on the table was carried without fur- ther debate. A letter from Mayor Phelan, accept- ing the nomination for Mayor, was read and a committee of three was appointed to invite him to attend the next session of the convention. An adjournment was then taken un- til next Thursday night. —_———— Students’ Club Reorganized. The students’ club of the Twenty-eighth Assembly District reorganized last night for the coming campaign with fifty new signatures to the roll. The club has in- dorsed Judge A. B. Treadwell for Police Judge, and intends to make a strong fight In his behalf. The following officers were elected: T. S. Cotter, president; P, Deasy vice-president; J. Gorham, recording se retary; J. Johnson, financial secretary; T. White treasurer. 'Executive Committee— J. Kane, J. Hthes, W. Parker, E. Bar- rett and' W. Riley. - Maguire Club Organized. A James G.

A resolution indorsing the candidacy of James G. Maguire for Governor and R. A. Thompson for Secretary of State was adopted. Cheered for Maguire. The regular meeting of the Maguire Club of the Thirty-eighth District was held last evening at Powers' Hall, Turk and Pierce streets. Hon. William Craig, candidate for Congress; Hon. Henry Ges- ford, from the Democratic State Central Committee, and Charles 8. Peery ad- dressed the club, and created the most in- tense enthusiasm. The meeting adjourned amid loud applause for Maguire and the State ticket. —— Fraudulent Names Expunged. The Board of Election Commissioners held a meeting yesterday and ordered some 300 names stricken from the register of voters, on the recommendation of Res- Istrar Biggy, who had found them to be fraudulent. Commissioner Gallagher was empowered to act for the board in con- sidering another list of several hundred names which will probably be presented to-day to the Registrar and formally stricken out. The board notified the Merchants’' Asso- ciation that it could not guarantee the ap- pointment of persons who were named by the associatién for officers of election, but that its list would receive due considera- tion if presented. ; —_————— CADETS WILL ENTERTAIN.

It favors the enforcement of all constitutional laws pertaining to school books and also favors the consti- tutional amendment referring to the county government act -and a curtallment of all county expenses. It pledges the legislative candicates, if elected, in favor municipal ownership and control of public_utilities; it condemns all those elected upon the Populist party platform who have violated their pledges to the people, especially where they lobbied against a reduction of salaries, which they had previous to election so earnestly espoused, and therefore declares them no longer representatives of the party.
