FRANCI CO CALL, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 189 IN DESPERATION 3 BURNS CHANGES HIS MANAGERS. Hervey Lindley Now Holds the Reins in the Senatorial Race, KELLY AND CRIMMINS IN THE REAR Major McLanghlin Has Been Deposed and Will Hereafter Take Fis Orders From the Smooth Citizen From Siskiyou and Shasta. S. SACRA- 22 —From the inside of | amp comes news that Ma- | posed from the po- anager of this Sen- | Lindley, formerly 1d Hervey Lindley, 1 levated to re has been | ct that 1 measure | Senator or go without adeqffate repre- | sentation in the Unied States Senate. He alone is responsible for the dead- lock, and he expects to wear out the patience of the people and exhaust the resources of other candidates. General Barnes, Thomas R. Bard, R. N. Bulla, Irving M. Scott and U. S. | Grant are willing to stand aside for the ake of securing the election of a Re- publican United States Senator, but D. M. Burns gives another example of his selfishness and his utter contempt for the wishes of the people and the Repub- T ’ solve to relegate Burns to political ob- scurity. = ¢ % . Many things have happened in Sac- ramento during the past week to in- tensify public feeling against the candi- dacy of Burns. The debasement of Simpson and the methods' used to undo the poor, weak sinner, coupled with the attempt to debauch a member of the | Assembly, tend to provoke a feeling of bitter hostility toward the touts. The fact that the supporters of Burns have | been compelled to resort to base meth- ods to get votes furnishes the proof that the “Colonel” has not that re- served strength in the camps of other | candidates of which he boasted early in the session. In truth he has no sup- porters to speak of in the other camps. His cause is weak and failing. Had Burns been managing for some one other than himself a contest as hopeless as his own he would have, ere | this, advised the man whose fight he | was conducting to withdraw. The old adage applied to the law applies to Burns. It holds that a man who con- duets his own case “hasa fool for a client.” FOUR VETOES AND FOUR APPROVALS CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Feb. 22.—Governor Gage to-day sent into the Assembly chamber another bunch of dis 84, 145 and 229 were 1 vetoed. ‘Assembly bill 3 was introduced by As- | semblyman Works and was designed to create a ‘State Board of Harbor Commis- sioners for the port of San Diego.

The remainder of their salaries may be paid from the general school fund, as at present. Those feachers whose salaries have not veen in- cluded in the salary fund shall be paid out of the general fund until their salarfes can be provided for in the salary fund for the next fiscal year. It is expressly provided that the salary fund must not be disturbed unless there be a surplus. e bt sl Senate Finance Committee. CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Feb. 22.—The Senate Committce on Finance met this afternoon and report- ed favorably upon the fo!lowing ills: Nos. 496, 465, 622, 623, 624, 625 and 612. Bill is an act for the relief of Hugo Du- venick, executor of the will of Bigmund M.

Concerning the conversation had by him with Assemblyman Brooke, Judge Post had this to say to-day: 1 never offered to bribe Mr. Brooke 2 if he would vote for Buras for Senator. 1 did have a conversation with him —_—— The Assemblyman Insists That the Intent of the Judg Was to Get a Vote for Burns in Return concerning a contest that had been in- stituted for his seat in the Assembly and at that time I told him that I hoped nothing would come of it. as I | believed it had been brought for parti- san reasons and not because there was any merit in the case. I never told him I was authorized or instructed to tell him that if he would vote for Burns the contest would be dismissed. nor did I tell him that I had any authority to CALL HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Feb. 22.—Assemblyman Mor- ris Brooke had a great deal to say to- day regarding the attempt that was made to bribe him to vote for Dan Burns for Senator in. return for the promise that if he would do so the con- test for his seat in the Assembly would be dismigsed and he would in addition be given a place in the County Clerk’s office of Sacramento County. That the bribe was offered there can be no doubt, for a Little Contest Fixing. proposition made by the agents of Burns and the raflroad. “Assistant Attorney General Charles N. Post had a conversation with me at the Golden Eagle Hotel,” he said to- day. “about the contest that was being made for.my seat in the Assembly by William Johnston. He sald he was friendly to me and to my interests and that he did not believe in contests being brought on partisan grounds.. He went on to say that he was a friend of Dan Burns and that he would like to see have the contest dismissed in any évent. 2 +1 did tell Mr. Brooke during the talk we had in the Golden Eagle Hotel that 1 was favorable to the Senatorial can- didacy of Colonel Burns, and that T hoped he would be elected. I told him that it was quite possible that condi- tions would arise that would make it possible for the minority members to throw the election one way or another. I am free to acknowledge that I asked him to vote for Burns, but the request was not connected in any way with my offer to assist him to secure the dis- missal of the contest for his seat in the Assembly. “1 did not offer him any place in the County Clerk's office and my vparting advice to him was to consult his con- stituents and his own conscience in the with McLi anagement of af- 4y, 5 harty by insisting that every other provides for the manutacture of binding T S G 2 't ae a pALEY. = ery i & 8| for Mr. Brooke is positive in his asser- Burns elected to the United States Sen- fairs, and that Dan himselt was not de- | consideration <hall be cast aside In or- SALARY FUND PROVIDED il oty I O o for he n- | tlon that an attempt was-made to get|ate.
