THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, OCTOBER. 21, 1900. 19 FATTOSIEN’S FOUSE FURNISHINGS LIKE A CRIPPLE ON CRUTCHES IN A SWAMP. If ever there was a time when the | strong arm of protection should be extended in the interest of the people it is right here and now. Trusts and combines are sapping the life blood of individual effort and are bearing from the embrace of humble enterprise the fruit of untiring activity The Pattosien Company has for several years been subjected to the most foul and un-American methods of so called competitors because it would not join the combine in “a contemptible conspiracy against” the right of man. But the big store in the Mission stood its ground and RUTH MIGHTY AND WILL PREVAIL. Bear these truths in mind. Pat- sien's big store represents the hty truth of business!

Pattosien’s store is an original store in the fullest sense of the word. Yes, it must appear even to the thoughtless as soon as they enter the big building that the whole great enterprise is cast in a different mold, so. to speak — it is cast in large mo!ds-an expansive and gen- erous mold of thought, while the contbine stores are cast in a con- tracted “ingrown-nail” kind of mold. Does it not stand to reason in any reasonable mind that the place to get your money’s worth is where honesty abldes; where goodness and style and low prices are com- mingled all the while in what you de- sire? Such a store is Pattosien’s, It is the height of folly for any one in any line of business to pay two prices, and you know by coming out to the Mission you avoid the stores where you are asked to pay two prices—one for the privilege of getting in and the other for the pleasure of getting out—alive. Cf course it is the province of sense to take advantage of business progress Pattosien’s big store on 16th and A ission Streets is crowded every day with buyers of bargains Yes, sensible thrifty home providers who will not wait until theexcitement of the holiday season has clouded their judgment are taking advan- tage of the low prices now prevailing in every department and furnishing their homes with lasting Furniture and Carpets and warm Bedding and Draperies at a saving of 25 per cent compared with holiday prices.

White. The audience began collecting early and by 8 o'clock, when the band quit playing In front of the Temple, the musicians found it impessible to make their way through the crowd to the seats reserved for them in front of the platform. All the standing room In the rear well out into the vesti- bule was occupied, and men were massed in the aisles along the walls all the way down to the platform itself. Senator White spoke but half an hour, confining his address to the question of | imperialism. Two speakers preceded and five followed him, and between speeches a quartet sang campaign songs. Former Congressman Camin§tt! called the meeting to order, and after a half- hour speech introduced Frank H. Gould as chairman of the evening. Mr. Gould | talked for fifteen minutes and concluded by introducing the speaker of the evening. Senator White was accorded a most en- thusiastic reception. The applause con- tinued for several minutes, until the | sppaker’s stentorfan tones arose above it and commanded silence. The former Sen- ator spoke In part as follows: Ladies and Gentlemen: Permit me to ad- dress to you a few words of friendly admoni- tion. You and I are interested in the welfare of our country. But please allow me to hes- itate with you In the highroad of progress. If I ask if the republic shall exist you say aye, but as to how it chall exist there Is difference of opinion. I do not claim a monop- oly of patriotism, but In that matter Repub- licans seem to me to be away In the back- ground. It we have read the history of our country aright it is this: We have walked the path of national rectitude, and by that we shall | live or dle. Suppose George Washington stood on this platform to-night, would he be in favor of a policy of aggression, of oppression? Are we willing to stand by the declargtions ot the fathers? Pause for a minute. utterance. | This 1s no demagogte I am not a candidate for office, | not an aspirant for public place, and I plead not for gold or silver efther, but I plead for | honest purpose. What Is the real issue befors us to-day? It the question whether man is able to resist himself. Where are the hos On the one side are those who belleve that the principles of our forefathers still are more potent than appeais to profit. On the other are Mark Hanna and his_ lixe. This is the situation by which we are con- fronted. 1 can get along under an Imperialistio government, but I would rather surrender my lite than to surrender the Integrity of my country. I appeal to you as men of brains to consider the situation. Can Mark Hanna and his cohorts control you? A republic cannot endure unless there Is found within its confines not only Integrity but abllity. We perhaps are the only people who are thoroughly familiar with lacal self- government, and when It was sald to me that me one from a barbaric clime might erect a Senator at Metropolitan Temple. —— OLD INSTITUTIONS Greets the Former government stmilar to ours T doubted it, and now I know it is not possible. With this issue of imperialism confronting us, what are we trying to do? To free a people or put money In our pockets? The men who are forcing im- peralism are money-getters, who do not care for the country or the flag either. These are harsh words, you may say. But they are true ‘and I assert that no set of men have the right to force this country into a destructive policy at the behest of Mark Hanna. I have attained the summit of my own am- bitien. I have won certain fights for the peo- ple and T rest content, but I will not go down to my grave until I have done that for my country which I consider the time demands. As to Mr. Bryan—he is an honest man; sec- ond, he is an able man, and third, he is a fearless man; fourth, if he is elected he will do his duty. (Voice, “They cannot crowd him out.””) No, they cannot crowd him out. T am with you on that proposition. And, my friend in the gallery or wherever you are, if they cannot crowd him out, that means that if you voters do your duty at the polls Mr. Bryan will have opportunity as President to do duty. We are nearly at the parting of the ways. We are getting along to the point where we may stand up against corporate power. 1 plead with you for freedom, not for pelt. We may not have money to distribute, but we have right on our side. Shall right prevall? If right shall prevail, you are the men who can make it prevall; if it fall, you voters will be to blame for its failure. Look over your country. Have you ever wan- @ered to the shores of the Potomac and seen enskrined there the father of his country? Can you make this country permanent unless you stand by those principles that he helped to es- tablish? I anpeal to you in the name of this | republic whether the story of time has been toll wrong. Is not the American flag worth something? Is not the principle on which our Government was formed of some value? Are we worthy of our heritage? I plead to you for the permanency of this Government and I ask you to remember that our heritage is a sacred trust. I sweep away the dull demarca- tion of party strife and put us all on the lofty pedestal of honor and truth where we can take the flag of our country before us and say that it is the man of law and the man of brains wh> alone is capable of administering a free repub- lie. Ex-Judge Robert Ferral was introduced and made one of his characteristic when- the-stars-sang-together speeches. Porter Ashe was the next speaker, and in addi- tion to paying a glowing tribute to Sen- ator White he made a few “feeling, touch- ing remarks” {n behalf of his own candi- dacy. John J. Valentine, whose popularity with the rank and file of the Democracy is demonstrated whenever he appears at a public meeting, talked for some minutes and told them what he had told them be- fore. W. M. Gibson made a short speech. Charles A. Sweigert was the last speaker. He exercised to the utmost the right of the American citizen to travesty the Pres- ident.

The celebration will com- memorate the one hundred and tenth birthday anniversary of this famous priest. It is expected that fully 10,000 peo- ple will be present. The First Regiment of the League of | | the Cross Cadets will march to the Pa- villon, and seats have been arranged for the young soldiers in the body of the hall. | | Surrounding the cadets will be 5000 junior | members of the league. The galleries and benches on both sides of the hall have been reserved for the friends of the or- ganization. The exercises will be highly impressive. The national anthem and the hymns sung | at all gatherings by these young advo- | cates of temperance will be rendered by | 5000 voices. An “Ode to Father Mathew, by Herman Sheffaur, will be set to music | and be sung by a glee_club. Bishop Montgomery of Los Angeles will deliver the oration. Other distinguished priests and laymen will make appropriate | addresses. An artistic souvenir will be | issued. It will contaln a sketch of the | “apostle of temperance” by Archbishop Ireland and other interesting matter. Rev. Theobald Mathew was born in Ire- land October 10, 17%0. He was ordained as | a priest in 1814 and began his career as a’ temperance reformer in 183. He accom- | plished a wholesale revolution. In a few | years 5,000,000 people had taken the pledge of total abstinence from him. He visited the United States in 1849 and was received | with public honors. The Senate voted him a seat on the floor of the chamber—an honor that had been conferred on only one visitor, Lafayette. Father Mathew's tour embraced twenty- five States. He visited 300 cities and towns | and pledged 500,000 persons to total absti- nence. Fountain Pens. Ask to see the Waterman ideal fountain pen with a falcon-shaped nib. It is en- tirely new.

At the last meeting of the board Superintendent Webster directed attention to the fact chat a resolution was passed by the last board providing that pointment of teachers experience in night | schools should count for one-half as com- | pared with similar experience in day schools. Webster notified the board that unless the resolution were regularly re- | scinded it is in full force and effect and the assignment of teachers to the day substitute and day unassigned lists was subject to its provistons. 7 Webster further stated that the board | | bad illegally assigned Miss Lucille O'Con- | nell and Miss M. F. Mooney to the substi- tute list. as the fact that they had been [ elected as evening school teachers would | bring down their average date of ap-| pointment several months later on ac-| count of evening experience counting | only one-half. In that event the two | teachers would be relegated to the bot- | tom of the day unassigned list. Chairman Mark has directed the secre- | tary of the board to ascertain the date of the passage of the resoiution referred to by Webgger. The rescinding of the res lution wHI follow and the substitute list will be left undisturbed. “‘The board believes.” said Mark, *t the chronological order can be best fol- | lowed by taking the exact date of the teachers’ election into consideration when assignments are made. We take the stand that this is the only falr way to follow out the priority of service rule. If a res- | olution has been passed placing night ex- | perience in teaching as only one-half as | effective as that of day teaching it will | certalnly be abrogated. I and the other Directors believe night experience in | teaching to be ot‘unl!y as valuable as day | experience and in some Instances more | so. Let the original date of appointment obtain in assignments of teachers and it strikes me that it will be just to all teachers.” Director Denman is hopeful that by the end of the school term places will be found for many of the present substi- tutes. What with leaves of absence granted to other pedagogues, retirements and marriages the outlook for teachers now unassigned is very promising. A circular has been issued by the cam- pajgn committee to principals and teach- ers urging active work for the purpose of bringing about the passage of Senate con- stitutional amendment Is to be presented to the people on November 6. 190. Prin- cipals are requested to obtain from thelr teachers a statement as to the amount each will contribute to a campaign fund. $2 50 ladies’ shoes to-morrow 95 cents.
