L ot Through the efforts of Congressman Loud, assisted by Postmaster Montague of this city, the people of San Francisco will be the first to enjoy the benefit of a novel and valuable invention of Danfel 8. Richardson, superintendent of the San Francisco Postoffice, whereby a certain check s placed upon negligent collectors and the depositor of mail matter is en- abled to know at the time he places the mail in the box the exact hour and min- ute that it will be taken out and the exact time it will reach the station at the ferry. The work of taking out the old boxes and putting in the new ones will be begun in this city to-morrow morning, and after the 80 new letter boxes shall have been installed the new device will be put in at Chicago and Philadelphia, it being the in- tention of the Postoffice Department to place them in every city in the Union where letter boxes are used in the streets. The outer sheil of the indicator, as the new invention is known. is a casting which takes the shape and dimensions of the front of the box to which it is at- tached. In front it has a glass-covered slot one by six inches. The time an- nouncements are seen through this slot. When the letter collector opens the box to take out the mail matter the indicator | automatically changes the notice in the glass-covered slot so that it gives the time for the next visit of the collector. —_— e —_— At 2 o’clock this morning fire broke out in the immense plant of the South San Francisco Packing and Provision Com- pany, corner of Seventh avenue and M street, South ‘San Francisco.

UD R. RUSH of Los Angeles and John J. Barrett entertained a Dem- ocratic audience for three hours at Metropolitan Temple last night. The hall was filled when young Mr. when Mr. Rush finished his address, a good third of the seats were empty. Those who remained throughoyt the meeting, however, were well pleased, for | Mr. Rush has a rough and ready Popu- listic style of oratory that suited them. He talked politics with ‘the earnestness and vehemence of a revivalist at a camp meeting and those who liked his style liked it intensely. Frank H. Gould introduced Francis J. Heney as chairman of the evening. Mr. Heney spoke briefly as follows: We are told by Mr. Hanna that the only is- sue of the campaign is whether the working- men shall have a full dinner pail, and we are laughed at because we say thers is a higher question before American laborers. Either our revolutionary sires were wrong or else the Mc- Kinley administration and Mr. Mark Hanna are wrong to-day. Those sires of whom We are 50 proud refused to submit to taxation with- out representation for sake of the principle in- volved. Shall we become the embodiment of that principle that we fought against then? Are we to leave our glorious destiny for that vointed out by Hanna? I think there is enoush manhood left in America to oveftome the tendencles to imperfalism and elect Wil liam J. Bryan, the apostle of equal rights. After a song by the cColumbia Quartet and an encore the chairman gntroduced John J. Barrett, who spoke in part as follow: An issue is a paramount one, not because a slatform calls it 5o, but because events make it paramount: because the destiny of the coun- try is bound up with it. If I stood alone with the destiny of my country in my hand, what above all else should I do for Its welfare? The Declaration of Independence is the substratum on which the constitution rests. Shall we now abandon its principles and join hands with dersots like that from which we severed our- | selves a century and a quarter ago? Imperfalism as it confronts us is a simple thing. Government by force, enforced citizen- ship is a primal factor. The policy this coun- try 15 asked to adopt is to reach out 8000 miles beyond the outermost rim of our old territory, to_extend our domain down into a country where men of our own race may not go; to make that people subjects and vassals of the United States. That is imperfalism if thers is such a thing as imperialism in the politics of the world. A number of campalgn pictures were thrown on a screen during an intermis- sion and then Jud R. Rush was intro- duced. He spoke in part as follows: Ladies and Gentlemen: I have a message to deliver from the people of the sunny southland. On election day we Intend to give you a sur- prise. We fully expect that in that land of oranges, one-lungers and Republicans we will eliminate a larger part of the latter. The people of this country are confronted with a new political issue, It is not a new question. There have ever been those who at- tempted to rule over their fellows; there have ever been those who held that government is by the people and for the people. When must we call home our armies? When must this stream of wealth cease? What right have we in the Philippines? My Republican friend says, “We have become a world power.” 1 grant you we are strong enough to wipe out the Philippines. But, 1 ask you, what right have we to be there? There never yet was a nation strong enough to dare to be wrong, and we do not dare to be wrong. You have reached the parting of the ways. Under which flag will you serve, Mark Hannats? For more than two centuries the people of the struggled Bryan's or Philippines had throw off the we became le we were mo: Fillpino was y States and in its bebalfl. When the United States had conquered Spain it had the right to demand indemnity for the lives of soldlers killed in battle. DId our great Republican ad- ministration do so? No, it paid $20.000,000 for Spain’s lost territories. You hegrd no more then of criminal aggression. You heard no more of governments deriving thelr just powers from the consent of the governed. My brother, deny liberty to_the Filipinos and just as certain as Abraham Lincoln spoke the truth, you will deserve it not for yourselves. My Republican friends say this is not impe- rlalism. it is expansion. Do you desire to make States out of the Philippine Islands? Do you intend to make its people citizens? They must_be citizens or suble: which do you intend to make of them? Our fathers taught us that government de- rives its just power from the consent of the governed. The administration says it derives its power from the consent of the governor. It has established taxation without represen tion. The soldiers of the United States are to- night encamped on five foreign lands. You want to Increase the standing army. We have spent eighteen years of our short national life in warfare. Let us cut down our army bill and save our earnings for the school house, the library and tie home. You say the world is moving: we must con- front new conditions. Yes, my Republican friends, but have you forgotten that the fires of liberty burn brightly on the hearths of the American people. You say we must rule the intermittently to ‘Whether or not i il il Filipinos for thelr own good. There never was a tyrant who robbed an innocent peopls but who did it for their own good. We can give to China a better government than it has, so we must conaquer China also, must we? It is said we must conquer the Philippines to build up a commerce. Let me tell you, you have already spent more trying to conquer them than you can make out of their com- merce in a century. Besides, I would not give the life of ome proud son of an American mother for it all. You say we must conquer them because we bought them. There can be no sale without a delivery.
