2 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1898. WELCOMED BY SANTA BARBARA REPUBLICANS Henry T. Gage at the Zenith City. GETS A BIG RECEPTION ADDRESSES IN WHICH ISSUES 5 ARE REVIEWED. An'Interesting Address By the Next Governor of California Receives Unstinted Applause. Special Dispatch to The. Call. SANTA BARBARA, Sept. 22.—The tide of public support is running strongly in favor of Henry T. Gage, the Republican nominee for Governor. Scenes witnessed in Santa Barbara this afternoon and evening have convinced the wavering that Gage will get more than the usual Republican majority in this county. Mr. Gage, accompanied by R. G. Waters, Republican nominee for Copgress, N. Blackstock, Republi- cin-nominee for the State Board of Equalization, and Frank F. Davis and ‘Will'A. Harris, eloquent advocates of the prineiples represented by the Re- publican party, arrived here on the noon train from Los Angeles. They were met at the station by the follow- ing_members of the Republican County Central Committee of Santa Barbara District: Chairman E. M. Pyle, Secre- tary J. W. Smith, G. C. Welch, E. A. Rison, O. P. Squier, John Hartnell, J. M. Holloway, C. H. Rowley and F. A. Conant. | Mr. Gage was escorted to the Hotel Mascarel. The reception, which was In- tended to last only an hour, was pro- longed for two hours. Men came from work benches in their working clothes, from the shops, stores and offices and other places of industrial employment to grasp the hand of the popular stand- ard-bearer of the true party of progress and reform. The appointment for R. J. Waters (o speak here this evening had been mada before the Republican State Central Committee made cut the route for Mr. Gage. This accounts for the unusual array of oratorical talent here to-night. To meet the conditions of the hour the | nominee for Governor determined to| limit his speechmaking to a brief ad- dress at each meeting, the regular and the overflow. The Cofigressional nemi- nee decided to adopt the same plan. Bonfires, anvils, salutes and the music of the Santa Barbara military band an- nounced that the doors of Armory Hall were open. In the decoration of the hall and stage the national colors were dom- inant. Shortly ‘before 8 o'clock the | speakers’ were escorted from the hotel | to'the hall. Beforé they arrived Armory Héll, was packed to overflowing and many who came later failed to get ad-| mission. At 8:10.0/clock Henry T. Gage and his talented orators, escorted by E. M. Pyle and Senator J. J. Boyce, entered the hall and were welcomed by an out- burst of applause, In calling the meeting to order Sena- tor J. J. Beyce, the chairman, made a brief speech, in which he called the at- tention of the audience to a,few of the | salient points of the present campaign. He said: “We have reasons to rejolce that what we said in 1896 has proved to be the truth. We say to you to-night that the country was never more pros- perous than it is to-day.” When Mr. Gage was introduced the applause was prolonged, Mr. Gage said in part: Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: Friends of the sunny south, I am delight- ed, it Is needless to say, to meet you here to-night, and it was my original purpose to discuss the {ssues of this campaign at considerable length, but owing to the cir- cumstances which have been already ex- plained to you by your honorable chair- man that purpose has been changed, and therefore my remarks will indeed be brief. It would have been a great pleasure to me | to have discussed lengthily the issues of the hour, but the conditions have deter- mined otherwise. Now, ladies and gentle- men, all political orators, all poliucal B&)eakers throughout this State, look with pleasure to the time when they may dis- cuss State affairs in this beautiful eity of Santa Barbara—a city of world-wide fame for its most delightful climate, a | city aiso with great fame for the high | culture of its charming citizens—and tue enthusiasm witnessed hereabouts to- night by such a community is the highest and most convincing proof possible for the triumph of the Republican party in | the coming contest in this locality, and | it is with pleasure that 1 inform you that | from every quarter of this State comes the pleasing intelligence of the indicated success there as here, and have no doubt In the world of the result. 1 have no doubt whatever that the ver- dict of California will be in-favor of the Republican party, because the geo le are impressed with the idea that the Repub- lican party of this day represents lawand order; represents all that is highest and noblest {n American politics; but I am re- minded by the chairman's remarks that I must not discuss these propositions in de- tall. They will be left for others, and I shall not trench upon that rule, but, be- fore leaving this rostrum, I take delight in publicly thanking the citizens of this community for the solid delegation which they sent to Sacramento from Santa Bar- bara County which supported me so loy- ally in my candidaoy, and I take this op- Portunity to express my gratitude to the gentlemen who were delegates there and ‘who supported me so generously. And I desire, ‘at 'this time, to denounce the cal- umny that is almost nightly circulated in this State that the 778 delegates that con- stituted the last Republican_State Conven- ion, men coming from the farm, men com- ing from the blacksmith shop, men com- ing from the fleld, men coming from the rofessional walks of life; in fact, com- ng from every walk of life, were domi- nated by corrupt influence. I say I take pleasure here to-night in denouncing that calumny, It is beneath a man who as- pires to the high office of Governor of this State to utter such a statement. X .would not have the temerity nor the dishonor to say that the .gentlemen who composed the convention assembled at Sacramento were a band ef scoundrels or were dominated by corrupt influences, No, never would I make such an assault upon common manhood in that manner, I would be dishonorable. Every Demo- crat, every Populist, every man, woman and.child in this audience who hears my voice knows that it would be dishonora- blé‘for me to assall ‘the integrity of such 2 body of men by making such sweeping charges against them, and it is equally reprehensible on the part of the gentle- man' who heads the Democratic ticket to say such things of the Republican convention. I cannot, of course, speak of the head of the Republican ticket; that would be indelicate, but from the Lieutenant Governor down I can without intrenching upon. the rules of propriety [ say a few.words in their behalf, and it is my delight to-sgeak in behalf of those ntlemen. I say it is proverbial in Calf- ornia \that no corporation, no rallroad, nothing could dominate Jacob H. Neft except the firm desire to discharge his duties faithfully to the people, that feel- ing that determinauon upon his part I know will ever dominate him. It is a slander to even indicate that he could be made the subservient tool of a cor- poration. Honest old Abe was familiar in Illinois, and Honest Jake Neff is just as familiar in California, and the respec- tability of the other candidates on the State ticket without naming each indi- vidual is a sufficlent refutation of the charge nightly made against t..em, with the obvious purpose of diverting the at- tention of the muititude from the revolu- tionary doctrine of the other party. (Storm of applause.) Now, gentlemen, it is proper that I should say something of myself—not to discuss myself, but to say something to ou which you have a right to hear, and now declare that if I sfiould be elected, and I believe I will be, Governor of this grent State, I shall never be dominated y_railroad influences or by any other corporation influence whatever. If I am elected Governor of this State I will give you an honest, clean, economic, business- like administration, and I will discharge my_duties to Democrats, to Republicans, to Populists, to every human being in the State of California with the best judg- ment God has given me. (Applause.) Thanking you for your kind attention, and feeling that under the rule stated by your chairman 1 have already taken too much of your time, I am pleased to com- { mit the further exercises of the evening to abler hands. (Prolonged applause.) At the conclusion of Mr. Gage's re- marks the chairman introduced Hon. R. J. Waters, nominee for Congress, who made a brief but effective speech. He gave way to N. Blackstock, the nominee for Railroad Commissioner, who spoke with force. The principal address of the evening and one which commanded the earn- est attention and appreciation of the large audience was delivered by Hon. Frank F. Davis of Los Angeles. Mr. Davis took up the Populist platform, and the masterly manner in which he handled that product of Popocratic cre- ation kept the audience in roars of laughter, punctuated by frequent out- bursts of applause. When Mr. Davis came to a series of Repubiican declara- tions dwelling upon the achievements | of the American army and navy and foreshadowing the early construction of the Nicaragua canal, the audience responded with cheers. The overflow meeting at Channel i(‘l(y Hall, two blocks from the Arm- ory, was largely attended. Mayor | Burke presided. The chief address of | the evening there was delivered by | Hon. Will A. Harris of Los Angeles. | The introduction of Henry T. Gage was the signal for a great outburst. His speech responding to the compli- ment was brief. He ascribed the twode- monstrations to the belief of the peo- ple of Santa Barbara that Republican principles showed triumph in the cam- paign. The meeting was also ad- dressed by Messrs. Waters, Blackstock and local candldates. Mr. Gage will speak at Ventura to- morrow night. There he will be joined by General H. L. Barnes.

HELENA, Sept. 22.—The Republi- | Napa County, | REPUBLICANS ELECT THEIR ~ DELEGATES Heavy Vote Cast at the Primary: NO OPPOSITION WAS SHOWN THE SEVERAL CONVENTIONS MEET NEXT TUESDAY. Differences in a Few Districts Were Satisfactorily Adjusted by the Arbitrators of the County Committee. The primary for the election of dele- gates to the Republican Municipal Judi- cial, Educational and Legislative Nomin- ating Conventions, was held yesterday and, according to the returns furnished last night by P. H. Prendergast, secre- tary of the Republican County Commit- tee, 10,799 votes were cast. The election passed off quietly as there was no oppo- sition in any of the assembly districts to the candidates on the regular ticket. A few weeks ago it was predicted by some that there would be opposition in several of the districts, but the differences then existing were speedily and satisfactorily settled by an arbitration committee, con- sisting of T. D. Riordan, Harry N. Gray, P. H. Prendergast, Alonzo Davidson and Andrew Louderback. The committee de- voted over a week to hearing the com- plaints of Republicans, who thought they were not recelving proper recognition. Every case called to the attention of the committee was considered and the dis- putants were brought together to calmiy discuss their real or imaginary wrongs. In every instance both sides were willing to abide by the decision of the committee, and that the committee acted judiclously and justly was evidenced yesterday, when former opponents were found working to- gether in the one cause—that of seledting delegates who will name a clean, straight Republican ticket. After the arbitration committee had concluded its labors, notice was given that if any Republicans were still dis- satisfled and desired to place an opposi- tlon ticket in the field, the names of their candidates would be received by Secre- tary Prendergast up to 11 o’clock Wed- nesday morning. Not a ticket nor a name was offered in opposition.

TALKS TO THE NON-PARTISANS TELLS OF HIS LABORS DURING HIS ADMINISTRAT.ON. The Convention Will Make No Fur- ther Nominations Until the Other Tickets Are Completed. Mayor James D. Phelan appeared before the Citizens' Non-Partisan convention, last evening, and recelved a most flat- tering reception by those in attendance. A short business session was held prior to the Mayor's arrival, but no nomina- tions were made, it being deemed advis- able to awalt the action of the other two conventions. The Non-Partisans have notified the Republicans that if six of the twelve Supervisors they nominate are ac- ceptable to the Non-Partisans they will indorse them. There was a full attendance. of- dele- gates when Chairman George Fitch called the convention to order in the hall of the Academy of Sciences shortly after 8 o'clock. John E. Quinn offered the following res- olutions, which were unanimously adopted: Whereas, It is of the highest importance to this city and State that the construction of the Nicaragua Canal by the Natlonal Govern- ment be not longer delayed; and Whereas, Its construction’ will relieve this olty and 'State of the burden of excessive frelght charges that have crushed every en- terprise in the State during the past thirty yeurs; therefore, be it Resolved, That our Senators and Representa- tives be informed that the time has now ar- rived when the citizens of this State expect some decisive action on the part of their Sen- ators and Representatives.at the ensuing ses- slon of Congress. Resolved, That coples of these resolutions be duly forwarded to the members of our dele- gatlon in Congress. A. 8. Holliday presented the following and it was adopted: Whereas, The Citizens' Non-partisan party is Interested in all that conduces to the im- provement and enlightenment of the residents of tbe City and County of San Francisco and the State of California; be it Resolved, That we express our hearty appre- ciation of the grandly generous gift of Miss Cora Jane Flood of this city to the University of California. S The chairmen of the flve standing com- mittees were delegated to secure proper pledges from the nominees of the con- ventlon. The request of the committee on. education for the assistance of the committee on nominations in selecting a candidate for Superintendent of Schools ‘was granted. The committee on nominations reported that it had been decided not to make any nominations or recommendations for the resent. A communication was read rom a number of merchants asking the convention to postpone nominations for ‘a week and give the other conventions an opportunity to complete their tickets. he name of Henry N. Clement was resented as a candidate for Superfor udge. Delegates Le Breton, Perkins and Mahoney were appolnted to request the Republican county committee and the Democratlc district conventions to have their respeetive legislative nominees pledged to sustain the new charter, in wl:-l':: caael thle NOK—PartI‘sang will not make any legislative nominations. R tver o short Walt Mayop Fhelan eared and was Introduced by President tch. The Mayor was given three hearty cheers, and after bowing his acknowledg- ment began his address. He referred to the occasion when he appeared before the same convention nearly iwo years ago, and of the assurances of success he had recelved from the delegates then. Reviewing the more important events of his administration, he spoke of his ef- forts in behalf of the new charter, con- gratulated the members on the success of their_efforts in behalf of that instru- ment. He sald he had done all in his wer to.fulfill his pledges to the Non- artisans, but he had been badly handi- capped by the majority of tue Board o( Supervisors. 'he Mayor then devoted considerable time to the recalcitrant members of the board, particularly to Devany, who had been indorsed by the Non-Partisans. He was unsparing in_his denunciation of their methods, and incidentally gave the Market-street: raliroad a hard rap. The suit to oust the board was reviewed at length, and the Mayor closed with a scathing denunciation of the Supreme Court for holding back its decision inthat matter until flflf'l;i theI slipir(vlsurs had cleaned up everything in sight. The convention then adjourned to next Friday night if the hall can be secured; if not it will meet Thursday night. THE RED CROSS CALLS FOR HELP MORE COMFORTS NEEDED FOR THE BOYS IN BLUE.

Corinthians Have Decided to Enlarge Their Quarters. A speclal meeting of the members of the Corinthian Yacht Club was held last night in Red Men's Hall, 510 Bush street, to consider the advisability of building an extension to the boat-house at Tibu- ron. Of the seventy or more small boats at present belonging to members only about one-half can find shelter. Designs providing accommodation for 64 boats in addition to those for which space is now provided have been prepared by Ha\'en; & Toepke, and were examined by th members last night. It was stated that estimates of the cost of mnklng the pro- posed additions bad been made by various cond"?lc;%" and that none of these ex- ceede . It was unanimously decided to make the suggested addition, and the board of di- rectors was empowered to borrow what- ever sum of money, not exceeding $1000, might be necessary. e present veranda of the club-house will be extended, and the new boat-house built out over the water in the direction of Angel Island. A passageway 15 feet wide will give access to the new boat- house, and on each side of it there will be space for a double tier of boats. The additional veranda space .above the boat-house will be very useful at all the thlckl‘y attended enterfalnments given by the Tiburon yachtsmen. VAMPIRES WILL PLAY FOOTBALL LOVERS OF THE ASSOCIATION GAME ORGANIZE. Practice Will Begin on the Alameda Ground as Soon as the Cricket Seeson Ends. At a meeting of the Vampire Associa- tion Football Club held Tuesday the fol- lowing officers were elected for the sea- son of 1898-99: President, T. Turner; vice presidents, R. B. Hogue, George Theobald and J. S. Webster; captain, G. T. S. White; vice captain, J. McGraw; execu- tive committee, Fane Sewell, J. M. Pun- nett, C. P. Coles, T. W. G. Wallace and J. J. R. Peel; secretary and treasurer, J. D. Robertson. The club will play on the Webster- street grounds of the Alameda Cricket Club at Alameda, and will pay a small rental for the privilege of using the grounds until the end of arch, 18%9. So soon as the cricket season is ended the secretary will issue notices to the Vam- pires to be present at_ the first practice game of the season. The uniform of the club will consist of a white shirt, with a black vampire upon the left breast and a black sash two and a half inches wide over the right shoulder to the left hip, black knickerbockers and stockings. Among the glayers during the coming season will be those whose names have been already mentioned, and the‘sollow- Ing new members: C. Rieveley, W. W. Tomlinson, P. A. Crump, L. G. C. An- derson, L. Chaldecott, F. C. Driffield, H. Bowen, G. H. N. Sexton, T. Turner, H. C. Casldy and several others. Last sea- son the club numbered about twenty-five but it is exgected that this number wil be considerably exceeded during the com- (n% Season. he chief feature of association football as distinguished from the Rugby or in- ter-collegiate game is that no one except the goal-keeper {s permitted to touch the ball with his hands, the penalty for handling the ball being a free kick for the opposite side. The game is consequent- Iy a very open and fast one, of which dribbling is a leading feature. Its votar- ies claim for it that it is much more gen- uinely football than other forms of the game in vogue. —_——— Asking for Aid. An earnest appeal for assistance is be- ing made by the directors of the San Francisco Presbyterian Orphanage and Farm, which has its bulldings in ~ San ?.Ifuel. The number of homeless and esert€d children iS constantly increas- ing, necessitating the erection of mew quarters. The building now belng used is rapidly falling into a state of decay. rS. he{n Hearst came to the organiza- tion’s assistance with a denation of $1000. Other smaller amounts were added, and twenty acrez of land were secured by Robert Dollar at San Anselmo. As the land is not all paid for the soclety is working hard to interest charitably in- clined people to aid it in its good work. A neatly printed report has been issued by the soclety which tells of the good work performed and gives the names of well-known ladies who have aided the in- stitution or are interested in its welfare. —— i The Dewey Club. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the Dewey Central Republican Club was held at B'nai B'rith Hall last evening President P. J. Joyce occupied the chair and John Choln acted as secretary. The leading Issues of the day were ably han- dled by the following speakers: aniel A. Ryan, Julius Kahn, P. M. McGushin, J. M. Stafford, ex-Senator Thomas Kane and P. J. Wynn. The following were unanimously - ree. ommended for nominations: County Clerk, Willlam A. Deane: Justice of the Peace, Danlel A, Ryan; Supervisor Fifth TRYING 10 BREAK UP THE PARTY Dr. Pardee’s Enemies Are at Work. INDEPENDENTS ARE ACTIVE Y MORROW RESIGNS FROM THE ALLIANCE. Fusionists Are Preparing For the Conventions That Are to Be Held Next Saturday. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 98 Broadway, Seplt. Independent and Non-Partisan “move- ments” are now springing up in all direc- tions. Men who failed of nomination at the Republican County Convention and others who withdrew before the prima- ries, and possibly one or two Who re- ceived nominations, are all striving to obtain more recognition, politically, than they now enjoy. In connection with these movements many names are being freely used. It is known that John A. Beckwith and I 1. Boak, who was a delegate on the beaten Leckie ticket in the Seventh Ward, are actively working toward some end not yet clearly outlined. Louis Schaffer, A. K. Grim, Thomas M. Robinson and Robert Leckie are also identified with the Independent Non-Partisan ambition. Tbe present outlook is that harmony brought about after the Sacramento convention will soon be dispelled and that there will be another rupture in the pg.rty. ‘When Dr. Pardee appeared at the County Con- vention, it was taken to mean that a united cempaign would be made, and when he called for the support of every name on the ticket from top to bottom, “from Governor to Constable,” no ons expected to hear of indegendent Repub<" lican movements. The echo of his words had not died away before the good ad- vice was cast to the winds, and the old rupture reopened. resident George P. Morrow has re- signed from the Republican Alliance of Oakland, and a special meeting has been called for next Monday night to elect his successor. The resignation of Mr. Mor- row was a surprise to the Alliance, as the club has done splendid work under iis resent president. Mr. Morrow, however, geclarcs that his resignation must be ac- cepted, as he cannot give the necessary time to this campaign. The following resolution was adopted at the meeting: Resolved, That it is the sense of the Ru- publican Alliance, in special meeting call that the alliance enter actively upon the ca. palgn of 1898 immediately, and _strenuously work for the election of the Republican candi- dates for Governor and for Congressmen. The amalgamated political parties are now busy arranging details and making up tickets for Saturday’s convention. The great bone of contention is the parceling out of the offices between the different parties. Already there are two or three candidates for each office, and there will undoubtedly be much dissatisfaction, no matter how the plums are distributed. The Silver Republicans will meet Friday evening at 467 Ninth street to outline their campaign. A committee will be ap- ointed to meet with the Populists and Bemocmts on Saturday and arrange some plan of fusion. The new Republican County Central Committee will meet and arganize Satne- day aftermoom. It is probable tnat A. I Breed will be the chairman and Clarence Crowell treasurer. To-morrow_evening the Young Men's | Republican League will open the cam- %algn at their hall, 1159 Washington street. here will be speeches and music. Sheriff Calvin B. White announces that he is desirous of securing the renomina~ tion of the fusion convention; Treasurer O. M. Sanford wants to succeed himself, and Principal T. O. Crawford wants the Democratic nomination for Superintend- ent of Schools. Crushed by & Street Car.

The man attempted to get out of the way of an eastbound car, and in doing so was struck by westbound car 1097. is skuil was fractured and his collarbone, right arm and almost every rib on the left side were broken. He was taken to the Har- bor Recelving —Hospital, where he died at 1:30 o’clock this morning.
