i HE SA FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1899 " ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC GOD - HAS BEEN HURLED FROM HIS HIGH YELLOW THRONE Senatorial Aspirations of William R. Hearst Ruthlessly Shattered in the Minority CALY, HEADQUARTERS, SACRA- MENTO, Feb. 22.—The Democratic mi- norfty of the Legislature held this morning a caucus that supplied an in- cldent of general importance and in- terest. The Democrats are becoming bored by voting for anybody and everyt who cannot eiected for U States Senator, and they wanted to re- lieve the monotony by doing something startling. They succeeded bevond their -wildest expectations, when Assembly- man Burnétt of San Luis Obispo pro- posed that for the rest of the legislative gsession they vote for Willlam R. Hearst. If a Spanish bomb had burst in the midst of the caucusing Democrats the result could not have been more expio- elve. Vials of Democratic wrath were poured in vitriolic streams upon the head of the devoted Willlam. He was called everything that is not good. He was denominated as more unspeakable in his attributes to Democrats than General de Young is sometimes sup- posed to be to Republicans and the members of the Democratic minority were implored not to vote for him un- der pain of costing their party success as long the name of Hearst may be used in conjunction with polite Eng- lish. It was not a pleasant scene. Another Democratic god had been tumbled into and kicked into smithereens by Caucus. I nett for United States Senator to-day | session, the action would have a far and for Nathan Cole Jr., Silver Re- publican, to-morrow. The indiscriminate use of names for an empty honor led to an important dis- cussion. Even among the Democrats a complimentary vote for United States ator has been cheapened and As- blyman Burnett introduced a reso- on binding the Democratic members to vote for Willlam R. United States Senator for the rest of Hearst for | reaching significance. People generally as well as partisans would believe that Hearst was put forward as a candidate to be elected two years from now and the result to the State Democracy would be as disastrous as William's journalistic campaign in Cuba. Mr. Ashe ceased in his oratorical ti- rade. Assemblyman Burnett was gasping | up against the wall but ventured mildly | to say that Mr. Hearst had been de- nounced upon the flioor of the Senate. Mr. Ashe replied that it was not nec- the session. Burnett is now sorry that he spoke. He said nice things of Wil- liam, but every compliment was met with venomous denunciation in which | essary to bind up the lacerations of more than one member took a whack at | William’s cuticle by damning the William and then returned to the at-| Democracy of California as long as tack. .

There are several worthy members of the Senate and the Assembly that have been waiting with the patience of martyrs to get a swipe at Willlam. They would pawn their po- litical life to get just one chance at the thing that in any way is remotely con- | nected with honor. Mr. Ashe begged his fellow-Democrats to remember that the position of United States Senator is one of national honor, and that it was shameful even to associate the name of Hearst with it, even in a compli- mentary way. But Mr. Ashe had only begun. He reminded his associates | yellow god and tell whoever would lis- that they have other interests than|ten to them what they think of him. their own to protect.

He said he understood that two or three more Democrats were going over to John Rosenfeld, and he wanted to give them a chance. The mo- tion to adjourn shut out Dibble’s motion. There was absolutely no change in the Republican end of the bal- Jot. The Democrats, however, split between four candidates—Assem- blyman James J. Burnett, John Rosenfeld, James D. Phelan and Stephen M. White. The ballot was as follows: BARNES . [ 4O+ 040404 0+0+0+0404040+0 4 ot monnwERE R LAN (D.)

It is not thoroughly dead. Like a newly killed snake, it has still a squirm, a no- tice of a motion to reconsider the vote which failed.

There was not so much oratory over the measure as appeared when it came | up for second reading. - Every one had | had his say except Senator Shortridge,| who couid not restrain his desire to give the bill a final kick. Senator Shortridge | repeated his arguments of last Monday— | that the bill in restricting the expression | of opinion by pietures was doing precise- ly the same thing as restricting the ex- pression of opinion by printed words, and this, he declared, was in direct violation of that prdvision of the constitution which says that must not be done.

The change is an incident of greatest significance in the Senatorial campaign, as it is made at a most critical time, and means that the Southern Pacific Company, determined to elect its can- didate, fears that success cannot be won under the management of Frank McLaughlin. It means, also, that the corporation | which employs McLaughlin and con- trols Burns has decided that McLaugh- lin is too expensive a luxury to suit cor- poration tastes and does not render a service commensurate with his pay.

ROUTINE WORK IN ASSEMBLY enough lawmakers on hand in the Assem- bly to do business, and on motion of Dibble a recess was taken until a quarter after 10 in order that there might be time to round up the House. As soon as the House had reconvened | there were a half dozen petitions for leaves of absence; few who were on hand were inclined te spend the holiday at hard work. Assemblymen Greenwell, Brown and Clarke were granted permis- sion to absent themselves, and the rou- tine of the morning was begun. The Committee on Irrigation reported favorably on Milice’s Assembly bill 246, to provide for the organization of persons owning water which I8 received and dis- tributed to their lands from the same source and the same system of works. The Committee on Hospitals and As: lums recommended the passage of As- sembly bill 19, to provide for the erection and equipment of a commissary building at the Home for Feeble-minded Children, Assembly bill 191 for additional accommo- dations at the Home for the Feeble- minded Children and the erection of cot- tage# for epileptic and zl!‘l.lyl(c persons; Assembly bill 192 for lighting, heating and Jaundry apparatus at the same institu- i a\e Judiclary Committee, which had under consideration the petition from the drought-stricken farmers of Northern San Luis Obispo County for exemption from taxation, reported the petition back to the House without recommendation. The committee states that under the constitution no_such relief as is asked for can be given, and it recommends that the | stricken -farmers ailow their lands to be | sold to the State and trust in the gen- | erosity of succeeding Legislatures for | their redemption. * | "The Committee on Federal Relations | recommended the passage of Assembly | concurrent resoiution 18, eulogizing Presi- | dent McKinley and the course he has pur- sued during the Spanish-American war; Senate joint resolution 1I, relative to money due and unpaid to ‘the State of California from the National Government for fitting out volunteers; Assembly joint resolution 21, relative to the restraint of trafic of convict-made g0ods to the States or Tergwrflea in which they are manu- factured. Senator Braunhart's seawall bill was on the second reading file and was passed over. Tate In the afternoon the steering com- mittee brought in a recommendation that the bills offered by Caminetti, Griffin and White be received and the Assembly agreed to it by 2 unanimous vote. Just before adjournment was taken to to-morrow Speaker Anderson announced that there would be a public meeting in the Assembly chamber this eveninf and that Grove L. Johnson, Assemblyman Caminetti and Senator Shortridge would speak at some length in honor of Wash- ington's birthday. ‘his evening the chamber was crowd- employer and is familiar with the methods necessary to carry out that policy. The episode of McLaughlin’s man- agement of Burns is interesting. Mc- Laughlin is chairman of the Republi- can State Central Committee, -and in that capacity has much to do with the direction of party affairs and the sus- gestion of party candidates. Shortly before the Legislature convened Mc- Laughlin took occasion to express his opinion forcibly on the candidacy of Dan Burns for United States Senator. | McLaughlin declared that he had heard that the railroad intended to force Dan Burns upon the Republican party as a tails to be carried out. Hervey Lindley cannot do both, and | to his brother, Al Lindley, has been as signed the duty of attending to the de- tails of the management. These de- tails are also delicate in their nature. | One may make the general outline of negotiation, but some one else must carry out the incidents. This duty Al | Lindley will accept, as he is qualified by | nature, it is said, to see in the dark. | He is now in the office of the Secretary | of State, but will have ample opportun- | ity to assume his new obligations. This affair has created a great deal of | comment. It is looked upon as the be- | ginning of the end of the unwarranted ambition of D. M. Burns to disgrace United States Senator. McLaughlin | this State as its representative in the declared that this was an autrage and | United ‘States Senate. The change of | cotton is a vegetable fiber, while wool comes from an animal.

Notwithstanding these assertions McLaughlin became and remained until to-day the man- fight for the United States Senate. He avowedly accepted that position, if he did not arrogate it. as other followers of Burns claim that | the Mexican has no manager and keeps | his secrets to himself. McLaughlin has been, however, the central figure in the Mexican’s cam- paign. If he has arrogated what was not his own his arrogance has been ac- cepted. He was, to every observer un- til to-day, the manager of Dan Burns. This management was not satisfactory. In the first place, although in the re- | sult to be achieved of secondary con- sideration, McLaughlin was too expen- sive. The railroad spends money to buy results, and there was no result except failure in the management of Dan Burns’' campaign. After fifty-nine bal- lots have been taken and every artifice known to corrupt politics has been used | Lindley has been so conspicuous as to | Dan Burns has gained only three votes, each vote stamping upon its giver a mark of shame. That is not a result the Southern Pacific Company contem- plates with equanimity. The corporation began to make very | serious and searching inquiries to de- | termine the cause of the failure of their plans and of the management of Mc- Laughlin. The affair is one of moment to them, as tools in the United States struggle is a confession more eloquent 1thtm a spoken avowal that the fight is | lost. | _ It was to be expected that Major Mec- | Laughlin would deny this important incident in Burns' campaign, and in his denial this is what he sa. “The first intimation I had of this | matter' was when a Call representative called on me this evening. I then stated and now state that there is not the slightest foundation of truth-in the story; that I am still managing Colonel Burns’ senatorial campaign and will re- main in his fight in the capacity of his friend and chief adviser until he is elected United States Senator.” The other politiclans interested in the affair are, as a matter of course, se- cretive. In business such as this, where there is involved the manipulation of public men, silence on the part of the manipulators is the only argument. The new management by Hervey | be noticeable to every observer in the | last few days. Lindley has outclassed | McLaughlin in boldness, indicating in | his actions his realization that desper- | ate. measures are necessary to win the] | fight for Burns. McLaughlin, in a dis- cussion subsequent to his formal denial | of the truth of the change of nage- | ment, laid stress particularly upon the | fact that the change will injure the | fight of Burns.
