They told me that there was a workingman’s meeting down here and I replied ‘there is where I want to speak.’ (Cheers). I have a profound sympathy for workingmen, because I know from experience the trials of labor. I know something of the way in which the man who toils is oppressed, and I tell you that if I am elected Governor, and I will be, I will guard and protect labor with the best judgment God has given me.

Mr. Gage repelled the calumny in an earnest manly fashion, saying: “No man the right to question the honor, the lligence and virtue of so large an as- semblage of Americans.” Continuing, Mr. Gage sald: *“From my versonal observation of the great ineet- ir and Intense enthusiasm of the peo- ple in Southern California I can safely say that the south will roll up the great- est majowi for the Republican cause ever ered in that region of the State.

When I see this audience and feel the inspiration of this magnificent en- thusiasm in a section of .San Francisco which I am told is the Democratic strong- hold of this city, I have no doubt of the complete triumph of the Republican ticket.” Mr. Gage, In a masterly manner, re- viewed the “confusfon party,” and cited the dangers to personal liberty and prop- erty rights which the single tax threat- ened.

The Scandinavian Republican Club Addressed by Repub- lican Nominees, Members of the Scandinavian Republi- can Club and their friends had the pleas- ure of listening to the nominees of the State and municipal tickets at Cambrian Hall last night. The meeting was pre- sided over by Oliver Olsen, and musically entertained by Sam Booth's quartet, which entertained the audlence during the early part of the evening. | Julius Kahn was the first speaker of the evening. He was followed by I. J. Truman, nominee for Treasurer, who | made a short address. H. M. Clement, nominee for Superior Judge; Thomas E. Brophy, nominee for the Assembly from | the Thirty-first District, and County Clerk C. F. Curry, nominee for Secretary | of State, had just finished their addresses | when the audience, by a spontaneous | movement in the rear of the hall, an- | nounced the arrival of the next Gover- | nor, Mr. Gage, accompanied by C. 8. | Laumeister, nominee for Railroad Com- | missioner; Charles L. Patton, the next | Mayor, and several other candidates. | Henry T. Gage on being introduced de- | ivered a short speech, briefly reviewing the Congressional record of J. G. Ma- | guire and his single tax hobby. The speech was well received, and it was ap- parent from the enthusiasm accorded | him that he had the good wishes and suffrage of the entire Scandinavian vot- ers with him, He illustrated the injus- | tice of taxation on land only, by pointing out how Maguire's enemy, the railroad company, would escape taxation on its rolling stock, bonds, franchises, buildings | and all property except the narrow strip of land over which the road runs. On the street rallroads in all of the cities of | the United States everything goes free except the car houses and the pleces of property on which stood the offices and | ticket agencles, while the poor man would have to pay as much as the multi- millionaire. But of all the anarchistic doctrines known to the most rabid advo- cate of socialism the one by which a mi- ner would be compelled to give the prod- ucts of the mine discovered by him to the State was the most preposterous. This and the one that ali land belonged to the people, and the father had no right to transmit his home to his children or heirs on death, was a something that evi- dently was news to the audience, as they never had heard of all of the absurdities of Maguire’s singlé tax theory before. Mr. Gage defied any living man to charge him with being a railroad hireling, or of ever recelving a dollar from the rail- road company. On the contrary, he had been instrumental in wresting from the railroad company milllons of acres of valuable land that it sought to take from the people. This assertion could be prov- en by the court records in the case where Gage and Call were the attorneys for the people. The short address of C. 8. Laumelster was equally well received. His honest face and frank manner won for him the good wishes of the audience from the time he started until he finished. The big, good-natured face of the next Mayor brought the house down with ap- plause as soon as he started in to speak. He was well received, as were the others who followed him. They were: Coro- ner Hawkins, D. J. Murphy, W. A. Deane, H. 8. Martin and Thomas Graham. GRAND REPUBLICAN RALLY. Henry T. Gage and Charles L. Patton to Speak at B'ne B'rith Hall To-Night.

Congressman Hilborn Was Asked Too Late to Take a Hand in Stumping the State. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, Oct. 5. Frank L. King of Eden Township denies that he had anything to do with the Independent convention, and in speaking of the affalr says: “My name and the names of other Sunol peoplé were on the roll as delegates to the so-called Indepen- dent convention. As soon as we knew about it we withdrew our names and did not glve any persons our proxies, but we were voted just the same.” Victor H.

J. Mansen of Alameda was nominated by the Demo- crats for District Attorney. As the fu- gion arrangement gave this office to the Populists, i’ W. Sawyer was nominated by them and Mansen has filed notice of withdrawal. J. J. Tobin of Alameda has reconsidered his decision not to run for State Senator from the Twenty-eighth District and has decided that he is still a candidate.

T JUDGE 3UCK CENSURED. San Mateo Democrats Pass a Num- ber of Redhot Resolutions at Baden. 4 At the regular weekly meeting of the Baden Democratic Club, held at Baden on Monday, October 3, the following resolu- tions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, The Democratic party is ever true to the principles of Democracy, the leading features of which are liberty of consclence and freedom of speech; and whereas, at the County Democratic con- vention 'held at San Mateo on the 2ith of September not only freedom of speech but the will of the majority was thwart- ed; therefore, be it Resolved, That we, the Baden Demo- cratic Club, “stamp 'with the indelible stigma of our unanimous disapproval the action of Hen. George H. Buck, as chair- man of said conventlon—firstly, for low- ering the dignity of the bench by presid- ing over a political convention where the disputes of delegateg have to be passed upon; and secondly, while acting in that capacity for showing bias in his rulings and acting unfairly, between the dele- gates, particularly i the county committeeman from the Baden Precinct, who was cheated out of the po- sitfon after the majority had selected him; and be it further Resolved, That we ‘heartily condemn such action as being dangerous to the interests of the Democratic party, now case of the struggling to Insure the success of the standard-bearer of our party throughdut the State. e s MIDDLE OF THE ROADSTERS. They Have Abandoned the Idea of Nominating a Local Ticket. The local middle-of-the-road Populists who repudiated James Gallagher Maguire and fuslon at Sacramento and nominated T, W. H. Shanahan, the “tall Sycamore of Shasta,” as their standard-bearer, have abandoned the idea of placing a municipal ticket in the fleld. They intended ndm- inating a straight out and out Populist ticket, but the decision of the Supreme Court’ recognizing the fusion Populists and glving them the party name upset all their plans. The convention was to have been held Tuesday evening, but the Coun- ty Committee decided to let the matter rest until a more propitious time. “There would not be any sense in hold- ing a conventlon after-the Supreme Court decision.” said one of the committeemen yesterday, “for our nominees would have to go on the ticket under another party name by petition. We fought to save the Populist party name from use by a gang of thieving politicians and failed. The re- turns will show next month what strength the Gillesple-Kinne coterie of fusionists has in the State. I for one, and I know thousands of others who feel as I do, will by our ballots on November next ‘bu Maguire and his allles so deep they wiil never be heard of again.” RESIGNATIONS ACCEPTED. Republican Nominees for Unexpired Terms Withdraw to Avoid Confusion. At the meeting of the Republican Coun- ty Committee held Tuesday night the res- ignations of Henry N. Clement for Superior | Judge, unexpired term; J. B. Cole, unex{- ired term for member of the Baard of ducation, and A. B. Treadwell, ? lice Judge, unexpired term, were ceep | ed. This was done in acordance with the wishes of the nominees in ordef to avoid having their names appear twice on the ballot, to the confusion of voters. The nominations of M. H. Barry for As- semblyman in the Forty-tourth District, and atrick Graham In the Twenty- eighth District, were ratified by the com- mittee. All the nominees for the Senate | and Assembly were notified that taelr cer- | tificates of nomination would be ready for delivery to them at once. Mr. Savage nominated A. P. Black to fill the vacancy caused by the resigna- tion of H. N. Clement, but a motion to postpone the filling of 'all vacancies pre- vailed, and the committee adjourned. s St o, The Ninety-Eight Republican Club.

SAN RAFAEL, Oct. 5—From To- males on the north to Tiburon and Sausalito on the south, Marin County is in the throes of a keen political | The Republican primaries | struggle. h}t‘eld yesterdav to select delegates to the called for to-morrow were closely con- tested, and in nearly every precinct rival tickets were in the field. In Sausalito there came near being a riot. There were three tickets in the first precinct during the early part of the day and later two of these com- bined against the Dickinson-Pryor ticket. So noisy was the demonstra- tion and so reckless the language and threatening action of the opposition that when the polls closed Marshal Hannon was called on to take charge of the ballot box. ‘“Stuffing” was car- ried on so flagrantly by the anti-Dick- inson element that even the disciples of the late ‘“Boss” Buckley would have looked on in amazement. In this city everything was outward- ly calm, but charges of “stuffing” and bribery were freely exchanged and in precinct three it was manifest to the most casual observer that the opposi- Republican County Convention | tion was not conducting the game ac- cording to Hoyle. It won by the nar- row margin of one vote. The hardest fights for county offices this year seem to have centered on the nominations for Sheriff, District Attor- ney and County Clerk. The contest for Sheriff lies between William Barr, chairman of the Board of Supervisors, and William Taylor of San Anselmo. Barr’s record is advanced by his friends as the slogan of his battle, while the others point to the fact that Taylor is a Native Son, has spent his money freely to the advantage of the county and should be given a chance. City Attorney Thomas Boyd and E. B. Martinelli, the incumbent, have locked horns over the nomination for District Attorney, with the advan- tage all on the side of Boyd, who is very popular in the outside districts and has a political record without a blemish. The lax methods of Marti- nelli in dealing with the faro question at Sausalito have made him many bit- ter enemies, and even the Sausalito del egation has to vote against him. Gen- eral Dickinson forced this issue by & threat that he would have poolrooms suppressed by legislative enactment if Martinelll were not thrown down, and the local “bosses” had to kneel. County Clerk Bonneau and Robert Graham, a conductor on the narrow gauge railroad, are both seeking the office of County Clerk. Sausalito is for Graham and the two run evenly in the northern part of the county. The same conditions prevailed last election and Bonneau won handily. From the vote polled yesterday throughout the county it looks as if the nominees will be Taylor and Boyd, with the Graham-Bonneau fight doubt- ful. All sides are marshaling their forces for the battle at to-morrow's convention, and the air is filled with rumors of compacts and “throwdowns.” ADVERTISEMENTS. men's and boys’ ¢lothing-. a suit.
