This paper he read yesterday morning under a question of personal privilege. The charges that Rev. Mr. Perry makes against Burns and his coworkers in the political field at Sacramento are suffi- ciently grave to warrant the attention of every citizen who has the welfare of the community at heart. What he to say will not be news to a majority of those who were in Sacramento during the session and had an intimate knowledge of the situation, but it will probobly prove to be a revelation to those who were so fortunate as to be the capital duri Senatorial contest Rev. Mr. Perry also pays a high com- pliment to the atorial candidates other than Burns and applauds the manhood of the legislators who resisted every at- tempt to debauch them and who voted against Burns to the end in order to save the good name of the State and the Re- publican party. Following is the paper in full: It has been my privilege to be associated, for_the past three months, with the law- makers of the State, in the capacity of i ain of the Assembly. I was appoint- ble to ke away from the progress of the ed by request of Hon. Joseph R. Know- land, a gentleman who supported eral Barnes for United § ator, My per- sonal Bulla. choice for Senator .was Robert N. 1 was inclined to Mr. Bulla from the first because he was from the south, the home of the retiring Senator, and be- cause the morth was so ably represented by Semator Perkins. The more 1 saw of Mr. Bulla the more I realized his great worth. He Is the soul of honor and in- tegrity and_has legal and legislative abil- ity of the highest order. General Barnes surpasses Mr. Bulla in one respect—that of oratory. But ‘that one item. would have placed California by the side of New York and Chauncey M. Depew. I had little to say in regard to the Sen- atorfal question until near the close of the session, and_would not have taken any active part if the facts which I will sub- mit to you had not come to my attention, 1 had good friends among the Grant, Barnes, Scott and Bulla forces. I listened to what was' told me and_after awhile accumulated quite a fund of information. Under the circumstances it was necessary to weigh the various rumors with judicial care in order to arrive at the truth. My newspaper experience enabled me to sift the evidence. In regard to the following I can give the names, dates and places. These facts are g0 abominable that no man interested in the welfare of this State and clean politics can be silent. First—On a_certain day a member, an old soldier, was brought into the joint Assem- bly In a state of _intoxication. Certain workers for D. M. Burns had helped this man into this condition; had taken him to a house of ill-fame, and, while intoxi- cated, had pledged him to vote for D. M. Burns for Senator. Second—On a certain week a member of the joint Assembly received from four dif- ferent immoral women, working in the in- terest of D. M. Burns, Invitations to go to their private rooms. Third—On a certain day a member of the joint Assembly, a married man, was filled with wine; taken to a house of ill-fame in- stead of his boarding house as he requested, When he woke up in_the morning he found he was not alone. Then he was informed P R I S nted o0 beoo@ v D. M. Burns He stood the They, true an anonymous o Sacramento ith she voting for D. s the offer the joint 1 be for the ery of and U.

At half-p: a man sleeping in an adjoining apartment heard the report of a firearm in the room occupied by Straub and notified the landlady. An entrance was forced into the room and Straub was found welter- ing in his blood and dead. The body ‘was taken in charge by the Coroner. Mrs. Diedrich said that Straub had exhausted all his funds and had become very despondent over his failure to get work, but she had no suspicion that he would attempt to make away with himself.

It removes the cause of disfiguring eruptions, loss of hair and baby blemishes—viz : The clogged, irritated, inflamed or sluggish con- dition of the pores. CUTICURA SOAP combines delicate emol- lient properties derived from CUTICURA, the great skin cure, with the purest of cleansing ingredients and most refreshing of flowerodors. No other medicated soap ever compounded is to be compared with it for preserving, purifying and beautifying the skin, scalp, hair and hands. No other foreign or domestic soap, however expensive, is to be compared with it for all the purposes of the toilet, bath and nursery. Thus it combines in ONE SOAP, at ONE PRICE—namely, 25 cents—the best skin and complexion soap and the best toilet and baby I svffered two years with Acne.

Fully three hundred newshoys crowded into the old Breeder and Sportsman build- ing on Bush street last night to elect a president for their newly formed union. And these three hundred news chants, who represent all classes of Francisco street life, conducted their business as sly as a body of law- maker: there was little order; but what power on this earth can still the tongue or conquer the spirit of the new boys. Captain Wittman sent two of his big, burly policemen to keep the peac and their presence regarded gross insult to the dignity of the boys' Union. “Happy” Doughert charge of the door, and when th made their app “Happy mer- an shout- ed, “‘Cheese it, we're all pinche here cums der bulls’” “Au, kick verself wid yer good foot, ‘Happy,’ " reforted Geese O'Niel, “ain’t Mayer Felan gontér be our tresurer.

They would rather be warm- ed with a slat in the hands of a *cop” than sit alongside of a hot stove on winter’s morning. When “Buceo” Crowley called the meet- ing to order “Spider” Foley arose with due solemnity and suggested that the bal- loting for president be commenced. There were only two candidates for the job—Artie Jelenski, an exceptionally bright young man, who has sold papers at Lotta’s fountain for years past, and Robert Wall, who has a monopoly in his line of business at the racetrack. The contest was a spifited one, the newshoys displaying all the rivalry they do in their everyday attempts to Sell their papers.
