Bryan Responsible. You all know Bryan's record on the acquisl- tion of our new possessions. The treaty of peace hung in the balance. It lacked seven- teen votes for its moceptance. Bryan in the army had been jmbued with the ideas of young Americans. He knew that no party responsible for the defeat of the treaty could hope for suc- cess at the polls. He hurried to Washington and by his Influence secured the acceptance of the treaty which, as he knew, gave us sov- ereignty in Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philip- pines. And don’t you lose sight of the fact at we will protect that sovereignty. . Bryan talks a great deal about the con- the governed.

The " is not enjoyed by uth the people It Brya Now Bryan has taken up a new issue, and talks of the intimidation of workingmen. The next step with him will be over the abyss for- ever. No one can ever win by constant re- treat. There are as many patriotic Democrats in 1900 as there were in 1861 As Don M. Dick- inson says, we will not haul down the flag in the Philippines so long as there are traitors I wonder if Mr. Bryan thinks he can estab- h a firm nd stable government in the Phil- sines, where the people know mnothing of . in five minutes? He is go- ing, without their consent, to establish a pro- tectorate. But what a mess he would make of Phillppines, leaving in full charge, with our vernment responsible for his acts, the man olanned the massacre of every man, woman and child In Manila except the people of his own tribe. Who is this Aguinaldo, whom ther have dubbed the George Washington of the Phillppines? I presume Bryan in his cor- i3 ce has addressed him as Geo 8 on Aguinaldo. Now this man Is the same who, in the revolt agafnst Spain, sold out for 300,000 in Spanish gold. 1 ask you, whatever may have been solitics dos Bryan's position_appeal the reason of a single man here?

Looking to the Orient, “Jim" Hill is building six 22,000-ton ships and many smaller ones are heing constructed, to meet the grow- ine commerce of the Pacific. The march of the world's financial center is westward. San Francisco Is a geographical center, and young men here will ses it dominating the commerce of the world.

Speaking to Assemblymen, Dibble Confesses to Spending $1800 to Secure an Election to the Legislature. SSEMBLYMAN JOHN FAIRWEATHER made a disclosure at a pulille meeting In this city last night that will produce a profound sensation in the Forty-first Assembly District. Mr. Fairweather served in tha Legislature with Dibble. In relating an incident of the last regular ses- sion he said: “I am somewhat acquainted with Mr. Dibble, having served with him in the last regular session at Sacramento. When the pur- ity of election bill was under discussion at that session Mr. John- son, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, was oppesing the bill, when Mr. Dibble arose in his place and spoke, saying that he hoped the bill would pass, as under the existing conditions his election to the Assembly had cost him $1800 in one campaign. Mr. Johnson expressed surprise at the statement and remarked that his objections would cease. We were all astounded, wondering how any man should want an office so bad that he would spend nearly four times the salary of the position to obtain it. There must be ‘something rotten in Denmark’ when such things are dome. The pay of the office is only 8480. Including mileage it is about $500. Did Mr. Dibble expect something on the side in addition to his salary? If Mr. Dibble did not pay the $1800 from his own means, would not those who did pay it expect to be reimbursed?” The citizens of the Fopty-first Assembly District should give serfous consid- eration to the foregoing statement. H. C. Dibble acknowledged openly that he expended $1500 to secure an office worth legitimately only 300. The ready in- ference fs that the bosses and corporations put up the money for elsction expenses and in return he was expected to represent the corporations om the floor of the Assembly. Let the voters ask themselves how it happens that Dibbls can afford to pay $1500 for an election to serve one term of sixty days in the Assembly? The Call is of the opinion that Dibble is the agent of the Southern Pacific corpora- tion in the Assembly, and that the company makes good his campaign expenses and permits him to engage in waste basket transactions and oil pipe line nego- tiations with Bruner and others on the side. His presence in the Legislature is a disgrace to the good people of the Forty-first District. The argument is advanced by weak and timid Republicans that his services are needed by the Republican party in the preparation of a measurs to re- apportion the State. There is not the slightest danger that an apportionment unfair to the Republican party will be serfously considered. In the Senate the Republicans have fifteen of the hold-over Senators and will probably elect four- teen of the twenty new Senators. Dibble never was of any service to the party or the people on legislative measures pertaining to apportionment. To serve his own political ends he twisted the Congressional districts into peculiar shape, but was never able to get a nomination for Congress. Two years ago Dibble received a majority of 85. He is counting now on receiving 60 per cent of the large Republican vote of the district, but he will not get that percentage. He will be Jdefeated if the bosses do not rally Demo- crats to his support. The Call seeks to be fair and just in its Indorsement of legislative nominees. Dibble is opposed because he is an unworthy politician, and because his election would reflect discredit on the people of the Forty-first Assembly District, injurs the cause of good government and harm the Republican party. The bosses would not put him forward as a candidate in a doubtful or close district, but they count on pulling him through by reason of the popularity of the national ticket and the heavy Republican majority of the district. Republicans are under no obligations, political or otherwise, to support Dib- ble. He is not the nominee of the party, as the Supreme Court in overthrow- ing the primary election law gave control of the nominating conventions to the bosses. It is a known fact that among Democrats who went to the primary | | L e e e e e e e e Y ] polls and voted the Dibble ticket was one who subsequently served as a dele- gate in the Democratic local convention. It is clearly the duty of ev good Republican in the district to work against Dibble and vote against him. The Call Is gratified to learn that hundreds of leading Republicans have op announced their Intention to vote for Oscar Sutro, the nominee of the ( Republican party. This Journal entertains no feeling of malice in of Dibble, There are no upsettled scores to adjust. The opposition to him is based wholly on. the fact that he is not a At man for service in the Legislature— that he i@ the agent of the bosses and the chattel of corporations.

The in- formation that the young people were married, as published in yesterday's Call, was given by a close friend of Mrs. Bald- of which John I. Sabin is the president and general manager, will in all probabil- ity be face to face, in a very short time, with a general strike on the part of the linemen. Although no demands have as vet been made by the linemen, who have formed a special protective organization, they will within a few days ask for con- cessions from the telephone company. In- stead of $250 a day they will demand $3, and they will also demand that their work be shortened from ten hours to eight hours. \NAMILTON" A B i | ! ] Pl LOMON p- (50 \L.ELIAS: The present discontent emanates from the difficulties which the Los Angeles linemen experienced in their contentions with the company about a month ago.

Bauer, a promising lawyer and popular young man. He is the son of Emile Bauer, well-known itizen and member of the Republican State Central Committee, The nominee is a Native Son of Califor- nia and graduate of Stanford University. He received his first nomination from th Fortieth District delegation to the B'aal B'rith Hall convention and was subse- quently indorsed by the Citizens’ Repub- lican party. Mr. Bauer commands the respect and confidence of his fellow citizens of the Fortieth District. His friends and sup- porters are confident that he will make an excellent record in the Legislature, be- cause he is capable and independent and will not take an order from the bosses. The district is Republican in sentiment end the indications are that Hamilton A. Bauer will receive, as he deserves, the full wote of his party, e % Solomon P. Elias, the Democratic nomi- nee for the Assembly in the Fortleth, is also a good man. He was a classmate of Hamilton Bauer at Stanford and like his opponent in the political field directed his mind to the study of law. Mr. Elias is a ready speaker and possesses energy and ability. The Fortieth District is comprised of all that portion of this city bounded as fol- lows: Commencing at Avenue B and the Pacific Ocean, continuing thence along the center of the following named streets: Avenue B to First avenue, First avenue to Turk street, Turk to Broderick, Brod- erick to O'Farrell, O'Farrell to Van Ness avenue, Van Ness avenue to Sacramento, Sacramento to Central avenue, Central avenue to California, California to the east line of the City Cemetery; thence northerly in a direct line to the Pacific Ocean, thence along the shore in & south- erly and westerly direction to the place of together with the islands ILLIAM D.

Mr. Wasson is in favor of a just primary law that will Insure every voter an equal voice in the selection of candi- dates for office and bring the government close to the people. Mr. Wasson has been actively engaged In tne newspaper pro- fession since bovhood. He is an active member of the San Francisco Typographi- cal Union and an assistant secretary of the Press Club of San Francisco. He possesses character as well as ability and intellect and his presence in the Legisla- =l the Forty-second District. Kelly and Crimmins renominated Lo- renzo A.

There is a large Republican majority in the district and the bosses fancied that the popular- ity of the national ticket would drag | Henry through, hence they stuffed the ballot-boxes and gave him the nomna- tion. At the last session of the Legis- lature Henry made about the smallest legislative record ever seen anl on criti- cal examination it was found to be the worst of its size ever produced. A vote for L. A. Henry is a vote for Crimmins and Kelly.

Mrs. Baldwin further stated that ar- rangements for her departure had been completed and that Sunday was the day set apart for the trip. No pledge of secrecy and to further strengthen her declaration N;’u Baldwin went away soon after on a train. from the city for a few days and on his return was greatly surprised to read the announcement of his marriage. Quite naturatly Mr. McClaughry was anxious to deny that he had been mar- ried. He visited The Call editorial rooms yvesterday and declared that the article was correct in the assertion that he was engaged to Mrs. Baldwin, but In making the event a matter of the past it was in error. When told that the information came from parties whom Mrs. Baldwin had assured that the marriage was a cer- tainty Mr. McClaughry announced that he would depart for Reno in the afternoon and there have the ceremony solemnized. He kept his word, leaving on the over- land with his bride to be. His mother eccompanied them on the trip. The wed- ding will take place this morning. —_——— Cost of Feeding Prisoners. Commissary W.

He would not even grant them a hearing. All the satisfaction obtainable from Hincheliffe was the infor- mation that John I. Sabin was running the company and not the employes. In order to show their interest in the fight for better hours and salaries the linemen of the Independent Order of Elec- trical Workers, Local 6, San Francisco, formed a speclal organization amon, themselves. They will now demand the 5 per diem salary and eight hours. The only company which has acceded to these terms, the standard wages and hours of employment, is the Independent Electric Light and Power Company. hile perfecting their organization the local linemen claim they were spled upon by detectives and the names of all those interested in the organization thus came to the manager of the tele‘ashone company. The result was the dismissal of Robert Gale, Inspector of East office, on_ Sutter and Hyde streets. All the men under him lowered in their class of work. The meeting of the linemen occurred on October 15. On the 16th the dismissal was announced. Last Saturday J. A. McGin- lex and several others were, discharged. ohn I.
