Another trans- continental road has laid its final stretch ot track to our city, and a third and a fourth are being talked of. ' Bryan would make our State the jumping off place of the country.

Opposed to it is the party of broken promises, of unful- tilled pledges, of disproven prophecfes, of ruin and disaster. Its efforts have been futile, its policies have produced misfortune and its prin- ciples are inimical to the best interests of la- bor. The Republican party offers you its rec- ord of achievement, its wide experience in gov- ernment, its beneficent commercial and indus- trial programme, its transcendent ability for the conduct of public affairs, and its unques- tioned honesty and patriotism. Tirey L. Ford, Attorney General of Cali- fornia, was then introduced. He wound up the evening in a ringing speech in which he sald: The glory of a nation is in its young men. The glory of the Republican party is its high ideals and purposes that keep with It the youne men. The voung men have ever been the people’s bulwark, the nation's pride, and now in our country’s crisis it is to the young men We turn to see to it that at the ovening of the new century our country is facing toward the dawn. It has been said that the nation owes much to San Francisco; and I say San Francisco owes much to the nation. And | it is fitting that California’s sons should lead in the victory that means so to San “rancisco and our own State. The young is abroad In the State to-day, and he is rz a movement that will find expression a tremendous vote that, south of the Te- hachipi alone, will give us a majority of not less than 5000. And in the interfor there are those who will help to raise this and help Cal- ifornia give a bigger majority to the head of the ticket than it has ever before given. I thizk so far as the head of the ticket is con- cerned, it is all over but the shouting—and I think the First Voters' Club will take care of that. But there is another thing. California should | | | | 5 | | | | s gend to Congress a solid Republican delegation of seven. Mr. Ford then continued to analyze the Congressional contests. men who had already been to Congress and who wished to go again, and in that connection he instanced the case of the State of Maine in Congress. Maine, he said, had but four Representatives when he was in Washington, and California had seven, but Maine had an influence in Con- gress second to none. The reason, he said, was because Maine chose men of steriing quality and returned them year after year until them became patriarchs among their Congressional fellows. One was Speaker of the House; another was chairman of the Ways and Mears Com- mittee; a third was chairman of the Com- mittee on Naval Affairs, and the fourth ‘was chairman of the Committee on Public Buildings. So should it be with Califor- nia. We should, he declared, return good men again_and again until they became powers in Washington, and can care for the interests of their State intelligently and fairly. I have thought for a long time to find a reason for the course of the Democrats and I have come to belleve that th of officers. And to secure this they have run the gamut of issues from the money question and protection and free trade to the trusts, and then, all these falling, they cry out ‘“‘im- perfalism.”” That, too, must fail. Imperialism as defined by Mr. Bryan is a pure and flitting myth, the final and despairing cry of impending defeat. It would be ridiculous did it not smack of treason. Its iteration and reiteration in this country is echoed by the Filipinos' guns 6090 miles away. Is Bryan giving aid and consola- tion to the Filipinos? the attitude of Bryan to the insurgents. He stands a self-confessed supporter of Aguinaldo in his opposition to this country. G C. A. Sweigert, a Young Attorney, Makes Deep Impression on Audience by His Brilliant Address—Remarks of Speakers Enthusiastically Greeted. ERMAN-AMERICANS turned out in large numbers last night and attended the mass-meeting called by the German-American Central Democratic Club at Metropolitan Tempile. The comumittes in charge of the affalr was composed of H. von Kousky, A. Tillman and Theodore Pinther. The meeting was opened by Oscar Hocks, president of the society, who spoke for a few moments in the German language on the necessity of the Germans of San Francisco becoming members of the or- ganization, which had been in existence since 1868. He referred to the large num- ber of Germans in Ban Francisco who would cast their votes for the Democratic leaders and the announcement was great- ed with hearty cheers. He introduced at the olose of his introductory remarks * T. Hess, who discussed, also in German, the issues of the campay, J. A. Emery was then called upon and soared skyward in his denunciation of the trusts.

In the absence of Porter Ashe, Chair- man Hocks addressed the meeting on his behalf, asking the audience to send him ig Congress from the Fourth District. J. . Henry was present to speak for him- self, and gave his reasons why he should be elected Congressman from the Fifth GRAND DEMOCRATIC RALLY District. Mr, Henry sald he was no poli- ticlan and was conducting his campalgn as a plain business man. Judge Robert Ferral was among those slated to speak, and his remarks we as usual, of a humorous character. He decried the trusts and the Republican platform and gave many reasons why the German vote should be cast for Bryan. He spoke of w. Hearst and his organization of Democratic clubs. Gustav Mann recited in the German language a poem entitled "The Strike of the Blacksmith.” His effort was greeted with hearty applause. “OLIVER GOLDSMITH"” | ENGAGEMENT EXTENDED | “King of the Optum Ring” Is Pack- ing the Alhambra—Enid Brandt’s Appearance.

PROCTOR TELEGRAPHS FROM NEW YORK OITY C. L. Paige of This City Receives a Message From the Miss- ing Man. George C. Proctor, who has been missed from the Palace Hotel for several days, has been heard from. He is in New York City, where he went hurriedly in the in- terests of the Old Colony Mining Com- pany, of which he is president. Yester- day C. L. Paige, also a stockholder in the company, who has offices in the Par- rott building, received a telegram from Proctor stating that he was in New York and that he would return to San Fran- cisco shortly. The stock of the Old Colony Mining Company Is largely subscribed to by Eastern capitalists, and Paige stated yes- terday that Proctor is in_the habit of making flying trips to New York and thus accounts for his friend's mysterious dis- appearance. Proctor left this city last ursday or Friday and nothing was heard of him until yesterday, when the telegram was received.
