B er of the University of Califor- | nia, who spoke in part as follows: This campalgn is not a thing of the hour, but a struggle of four years' duration. On the hand we have had actions and not words: ot hand_words and not action.

Its motto 18 progress. Let us bulld up our manufactories; let us extend our nmerce; let us increase our products and our manufactories until they not only satisfy every demand at home but until they reach into every port in the world; let us extend our schools; let us start all of our mill wheels to turning and keep that dinner pail full to overflowing. And finally, let us extend our territory and the protection of our flag wherever the name of Iiberty ana humanity demands. What were we doing at the beginning of this century? Engaging ourselves in a Sreat strug- gle for Iiberty. What do we gee in the middle of the century? Another struggle for liberty. And mow at the close of this greatest of centu- ries we stand extending the arm of liberty over oppression as base as that which we ourselves endured In the beginning. And the Republican party stands now, as it always has stood, the exponent of this liberty Good Government for Filipinos. W. A. Morris of Stanford spoke briefly in favor of the Btanford University con- titutional amendment, explaining its pur- poses and pleading its necessity. Taking up the issues of the campalign he sald in part: It has been the practice of those who talk of imperialiem In this campaign to attempt to convey the impression that one party is ar- reyed on the side of empire and the other t ing to strike the shackles from an oppre: pecple. Does this attempt square with facts? Mr. Bryan desires to establish a stable government in the Philippines. That is exactly wrat the administration is trying to do, striv- ing most earnestly to do. Our commission thére, with a Berkeley professor on it, I am proud to say, is trying to give the Filipinos the best government, most nearly self-govern- ment, that is possible under the conditions. College Men for McKinley. E. Myron Wolf, having arrived, was introduced and spoke briefly, as follows: The Republican college clubs have done their work well, They were first organized by Gen- eral Carkson, who observed that college pro- fessors wers enamored of free trade doctrine and to give the colleges a view of the practical of the question he began the organization Clube. "the country depends on the 1 it s well to teach them the e to the fommunity and to the Tuesday you will see an almost college students and co marching with the great arm ee that the policy of American 14, that the American ed down. anford Republican ign son; and responded quartet sang to an Real Issues of Campaign. Jesse H. Steinhart of the University of California spoke in part as follows: The American laborer by his prosperous con- aition 1s a living refutation of the Democratic clalm that mere combinations in themselves Gre detrimental to his welfare, For during ¢ fast Tour years he has witnessed no reourrence of the horrible spectacles witnessed under the Democratic administration. They have been four yea of p perity, In which the poor American laborer has had nothing to do but ork, mothing to eat but food and nothing to spend but money. The Democrats expect us to make belfeve that we do not see the real issue of the campaign. But we do see it, we know that it Is not impe- rialiem. It's the monetary question, the ques- tion of free silver; it's the tariff question, the qestion of ree trade; it's the personal ques- tlon, the question of the men. The Democratic situation reminds of a little couplet I heard re- I 1t ran ¥ head wheels whirl with a busy buza, - *Cause things don't be as they used to wuz.” And that's the true situation. Four years sgo the Democrats predicted disaster, destruc- i, distress. After four years of McKinley- lem our manufactures are increased, our com- merce improved, our standing among the na- tions of the earth second to none. Truly, things don't happen to be ‘‘as they used to wu: And W “‘their head-wheel ‘whirl re. ith & busy buzz.® With that busy buzz that has found its expression in the Demoeratic platform; that busy buzz that sees nothing good in all that has happened to enhance our pros- perity and Insure our future; that busy buzz that would unseat the guardian of our honor— Willtam McKinley. Record Sound on Trusts. R. P. Cross of Stanford University was introduced to speak on the trust ques- tion. He said in part: The choice of President on November 6 will be of vital importance, not only to the coun- try at large, but to you individually. Unwise legisiation in regard to large corporations may result disastrously to industry. Tariff legis- Jation unfriendly to the American system may bring untold misery. Unsound financial meas- ures may result in national discredit. W. B. Greeley of the Unlversity of Call- torntu was the next speaker. He sald in part: The American people are not wont to put their hands to the plow and look back. en once we undertake a thing, we see it through. When a righteous war has lald unexpected and tnsought responsibilities upon our shoulders, it is not for us to shake them off in craven fear and try to satisfy ourselves and the world with some miserable, half-hearted makeshift. ‘What the Filipinos need at this critical time is direction and guidance. They must be shawn how. This imperative need President McKinley and his able corps of co-workers are supplying to-day. He has called to his ald the learned educators, the trained jurists, the statesmen of the country. He has sent over a Civil Com- mission which is developing and putting into operation & system of local self-government, ten more storfes and novels and has plerced the heavens with the telescope of astronomy. The higher education as shown in that grand university at Palo Alto, to which that noble woman has given the affection and the Interest in her lite, and whom God deprived of her only child that millions might call her mother. (Loud applause.) It is a splendid sign, these young men re carefully considering what shall be their political status. Certainly nothing could be more important than that a young man in this, as in every relation of life, shculd start right. I wish I were young again. If I could only get back to those glorious days when life was like a pillow of fire, but now its cloudy mantle covers me. I know what [ would have done in respect to my political duty. If I went back any further than the fellow citizens, that based upon a recognition of native rights. He has recently dispatched a corps of trained ed cators to prepare and put into operation & sy tem of public schools. Thus is our Presiden in the stanch old-fashioned American spirit, fulfilling the obligations imposed upon him by the Spanish war. The wisdom of America is being applied to the problem of educating the Filipino nation. The political sagacity and ex- perience of America are being applied to the problem of devising a governmental system best suited to their needs. Democracy’s Future a Void. J. E. Springer of Stanford University discussed the place of the college man in politics. He sald: 1 fail to see Why the Democratio party ehould attract to its ranks any of the young men of the country. Its present 1s made up of financial and politi- cal herestes. Its future is a void into which the eye cannot plerce. The Democratic party for four years has been trying to create an issue. They looked out to the Orent and thought they saw a cloud gath- ering, but it proved to be only the breakir of a new dawn. So they have rather dropped imrerialism of Jate and have turned their chief attention to the monstrous trusts. Think of that, the Democratic party posing as the enemy of the trusts! The Stanford guartet sang again, once more winning high favor with the au- dience. General W. H. L. Barnes was next in- troduced by Chairman Wolf and as the distinguished orator stepped forward he was given an ovation. Twice he attempt- ed to begin his address, but was com- pelled to wait until ihe Cheerlng subsid- od. The general was in splendid voics and his brilllant effort was greatly appre- clated by his auditors. In part he sald: Friends and Fellow Citizens: I can not tell you how much I have enjoved this night. I came expecting to be made happy by this pic- ture of young patriotism. I anticipated gath- ering something of the enthusiasm that runs through their veins, and feel that I had cheat- ed old age. (Laughter and applause.) It was not so in my time as a college stu- dent. I do not remember the event of the re- versible cape. We had no capes at all to verse; we had little or nothing to do with practical politics or the matters that interested the public on either side. We were bound down to a curriculum of study that taught us some- thing of Latin, something of the higher litera- ture, and when we got out of college we wers about as fit for the practical comforts of h man life as we were when we left our mother's breasts. The higher education was so high at that time that It was reached by very few. A college class even in the great universities of Harvard and of Yale, which were then as they are now the two great universities of the coun- try—they knew nothing whatever of practical politics, and it was & rare thing to See a fresh- man class that exceeded thirty or forty: 150 to 200 students was a large body of young men and 300 or 400 would Include all those engaged in the advanced studies of the law, theology and medicine. Higher Education. But now it seems to me as though thers was a great army of the young marching toward the higher education. We did not see in those Gays-yes, we did see the bonnets that came onthe green (laughter, but they had nothing to do with our course of study as lald down in the curriculum (laughter), but to-day the high- or education is the privilege of men and women allke (applause). I do not know—I have never beén able to understand why it Was that the higher education has been so many centuriea dented to woman. How one here and there, from the midst of her sex has projected more than the others: has writ- birth of the Republican party there would be no doubt what 1 would do. The Repubiican party came to life, it seemed, in a twinkling of an eye. It was not so. It was not of sud birth, it was years of response to the domi- rcting side of public life. When Mr. Buchanan left office he left a shattered ration, a ruined credit; he lsft a country shorn of everything at home and abroad, and out of the darkness came a man whose sublime image will never be forgotten; that man from Illinols, from whom to-day these Democrats steal as they would steal the livery of heaven to serve the devil. (Applause.) Lincoln Had Enemies. He came to his station at Washington through s Democratic city by night, lest they might take his life. He entered upon his duty with the bulk of the Democratic party In favor of d'sunion, and then began for the first time what the Democrats objected to then and now —government without the consent of the gov- erned. It cost $3,000,000,000; it cost 1.000,000 lives, but at last the governed learned that the best way to do was to consent to be governed. Yet through all that trouble how did they talk of Abraham Lincoin? (Tremendous applause and cheering.) He was a tyrant who was try- ing to impose his power upon the people of the United States. Worse than that, they likened him unto the animals of the dense forests of Africa. He was a gorilla, an ape—a human menster—and at_last one of them murd him. And his sublime soul mounted to resence of the God that created and loved tm, and he reposes there upon that infinite breast, immortal there as he is and ever shall be tmimortally glorious in the hearts and lives of the American pecple. (Applause.) Advice to Young Men. Follow it, follow this great party, men. But see how it took hold of the dis- Ordered finances of & great people and out of it wrought stable government, commercial honor, credit abroad and fidelity to its en- gagements at home. See how it made liberty a household word all over the land: see how each Presidential term, so long as Republicans were at the helm, the nation grew and strengthened; see how when Mr. Cleveland came into power the blight again came to it. From dread and poverty and disaster, the nation unable to collect enough revenue to pay, and he went out of power, having borrowed two hundred and sixty millions of dollars to pay the every-day expenses of the country. What has happened since? I ask myself this as a young student of history. (Laughter.) ‘What has occurred during the last four years? This magnificent panorama, of which Its cen- tral sun {8 McKinley here to-night. Why fol Jow in the lead of the Tory of the revolutio of the enemy of his country of 1§12; of the man who regretted the acquisition of Lo ana, who opposed the annexing of Florida and of Alaska? There have been drags upon the charlot wheels of our progress from the Tory to Bryan. And they served their party in hi tory. They are not altogether without use- fulness. They have their purposes because they make us stop and think. A campaign llke that through which the American people has passed this year has been productive of more solemn thought than any since the campalgn that preceded the election of Abraham Lincoln as President of the United States. ‘What Workingmen Wanted. Mr. McKinley came to power under most adverse conditions. The state of the country Was one of great unrest; there was general Uneasiness_among the laboring classes of the country. Work was hard to find. Many men had become poor who never knew the sign of want before, and his mind was not upon con- quest or imperiallsm but upon the restoration of the finances of the country—the lighting up of the fires that had been put out—the fur- Pishing to Intelligent labor the means and ca- pacity by which to live. The sufferings Inflicted on the peopls of Cuba young L + I L + by the Spgnish general, Weyler, aroused the people of country to a pitch of enthusiasm never before felt for sufferings other than their own. But that act of madness, which in a moment burst asunder the beautiful ship, that white dove of peace that floated in those murky waters, and sent sailors and marines, =: as they su, were under t protec- tion of the Am flag. to the bo of tha bay: their souls to the bosom of G Tha people d1d not stop to consider whether it was an act of aln or the local gov: ment Cuba. 1 believe as I do In your o istence here to-night that that act, that das- | d y destruction s, was the work of the ernnient in the island of sooner or later the of ocal Spanish Gov- human ‘uba (cheers), and murder will out. Sooner or later. when the rusty bones shall be lifted from the waters, the story as to whether it was an internal or external violence will be settled for- ever. McKinley Was a Soldier. But there no other alternative. McKin- ley, who was a soldler by profession and not by name (laughter and applause), although he entered the army as a common_ soldfer, with his musket on his shoulder. had been raised to a superior command. who knew what war meant, who knew what war was, hesitated to involve the country into a war in its condition of finances and dreaded the loss of life. He went into that war with a sterner sense of duty than the President of the United States. He summoned army as Lincoln summoned his. He summoned it from the body of the people. And our army went down to Cuba and our battieships went around that island seek- ing to discover Cervera while he was making his second discove: of America. (Laughter.) Dewey Obeyed Orders. There was four or flve degrees south of the equator a group of islands that Magellan had taken possession of in the name of Phillip of Spain, over which Spain had governed: and there was a fleet. No one knew its strength and no one its capacity, but it was said to be fully equal to our Aslatic squadron. The har- bor of Mantla was said to be sown with tor- pedoes and the shores wers lined with forts, and the world looked on in amazement when Dewey was told by the President of the United States not to capture the Philippines, but to find that fleet and put it under water, and he went, and Dewey's work was accomplished. (Great cheering.) there any Democrat this side of the bottomless pit who condemns him for that? What was the result? What was our situation before the civilized world? What was the duty of this Government? We knew then less than we know to-day. What were wa to do with 1t? Nothing but what our Pres- ident has done. Nothing but what our Gov- ernment has decided and carried out. It was at best a graceless task. It was one that we might wish to have been spared, but when the duty was made apparent the American na- ton was ready for it and It has been there ever since and will stay thers. (Great ap- plause.) ———— See that vou vote for Judge Willlam P. Lawlor, who has proved himself worthy of the support of all citizens, irrespective of party. . DEMOCRATS HOLD RALLY AT ODD FELLOWS’ HALL Names of the Democratic Lecaders Are Cheered by a Large Audience. LARGE and enthusiastic meeting of Democrats was held last night in Odd Fel- lows’ Hall. The remarks of the various speakers were all greeted with hearty applause, and the audience yelled and stamped vociferously at the mention of the names of the Dem- ocratic standard bearers. The meeting was opened by Allison ‘Ware, who in a few well-chosen words introduced Charles Wesley Reed as chalr- man of the evening. Mr. Reed in his opening remarks ex- plained to the audience that although he supported McKinley four years ago he enrolled himself in this campalgn as a Democrat. He reviewed the events of the stirring times of 1776, likening the present condition of affairs to the state of the American colonies at that time. As chairman Mr. Reed then introduced 3. Nunan Phillips, the Los Angeles ora- tor and Sliver Republican, who said in part: “1 am thankful to be able to state from this platform to-night that I come from the south with glad tidings for the friends of Bryan and Stevenson. For forty days and nights I have traveled | this State, and I see everywhere evidences of the overwhelming strength of the Dem- ocratic forces.” Continuing, the speaker discussed the recent decision of M. M. Estee in regard to the Mongolians and Japs in Hawall, which he stated ‘“‘opened .he doors of this country to an undesirable element.” Mr. Phillips also spoke of the Webster Davis episode, decrylng against the charge of bribery made against ‘*‘the grand old man,” who, in the opinion of the orator, “was of 100 noble a make to barter himself for goid.” The balance of his oration was mainly a repetition of figures and statistics tending to prove the falsity of the present administration. Foliowing Mr. Phillips Miss Etta Welsh b 'lingoduced and amused the audience y_singing campaign songs. e young hg{ was recalled time and again. appearance of Judge Lawlor upon the stage was the signal for loud cheer- lng and vigorous handclapping. The Judge did not speak, as it was not a local meet- ing. = F. L. Loofburrow of Stanford Univer. sity was next introduced. He spoke of the amendment which means so much to the institution and made plain the mean- ing of the proposed amendment. ‘‘The grimary object of the amendment said r. Loofburrow, ‘'is to place the institu- tion in & position to recefve future endow- ments. here ares at least two gentle- men who would will to the Stanford Uni- versity the mnéor portion of thelr for- tunes if the State law would permit. Many persons are of the opinion that the removal of the taxes applles to the en- tire Btanford estate. In this they are mistaken. The taxes we desire removed are only those levied upon the buildings of the university and the ground upon which they stand.” The meeting closed with an oration b Joseph J. Dwyer. The speaker advocat the policy of the Democratic party as ex- emplified by Bryan and decried the for- mation of an unusual number of trusts during the last nzmlnlstn.uon His re- marks on the PhlllJ:ane question were strongly uttered and appealed greatly to the audience, which received them with cheers. The meeting closed with the band play- ing “The Star-Spangled Banner” .m? the audience giving three cheers for Bryan. —_— e Salomon Talks to Veterans. YOUNTVILLE, Nov. 2—The most en- thusiastic meeting of the campalgn was held here this evening. P. Bradley pre- sided. General E. S. Salomon was the speaker of the evening. He delivered a stirring speech. Cheers went up from the old veterans, and as he pictured thair sol- dier life and showed them how and why they ought to be with the Republican garty and for McKinley and Roosevelt, is words were greeted with storms of applause. He told the Mexican war ve‘{- erans, of which many are here, that ex- pansion was right; that they fought for it and that their valor and heroism en- abled the United States to expand suffi- clently to take in California. PORTER ASHE IS HEARD BY MEMBERS OF IROQUOIS CLUB Rather Frosthitten Democratic Rally Takes Place in Saratoga Hall. ———— JOINT rally of the Iroquois Club and of the Thirty-ninth District Bryan and Stevenson Club was held In Saratoga Hall last night. There was a fair audience present and the various speakers were listened to attentively. The chief candidate to address the audience was Porter Ashe, who told of what he would accomplish If elected to Congress and of the work he was accomplishing in his canvass of the city. “So far as I am able to ‘udge,” he said, “‘the sentiment of the city seems to be on my side. I have bee. working very hard during this campaign and feel that I deserve the office for which I am a candidate. It will be unnecessary for me to enlarge on the natlonal Issues. Suffice it to say that so far as San Fran- cisco Is concerned it will be my honor and pleasure if elected to spare no effort in my duties for the benefit of my con- stituents.” Mr. Ashe's greatest hit was scored ‘when, pointing to the red tis he wore, he told his audience that they could see by that that he was to address an audience of Itallan voters. After the conclusion of Ashe's speech the audience rose to go almost en masse and for a few moments it looked as if empty benches might drink 1. the ora- tory of the other candidates who were announced to speak. Chairman McMann, however, wielded his gavel vigorously and managed to stay and hold a portion of the exodus. Loufs H. Ward then addressed the audi- ence on the importance of sending a oung man to the Assembly. J. J. Dyer, . V. Costello, W. P. Lawlor, J. T. O'Con- nor and other candidates also spoke. —_———————— SACRAMENTO, Nov. 2.—John McNewer, em- loyed on the ranch of F.

The Harbor Republican Club closed its campalgn last evening with a rousing tent rally at the corner of Folsom and Stuart streets. Few local campaign clubs have been more aggressive this fall than the Harbor Club and last evening’s affair was its fifth big meeting. More than $00 has been spent and an exceptionally strong fight has been waged. Frank C. McConnell, president of the Shipwrights’ Union, presided. Jullus Kahn was the first speaker. He took up the question of Chinese labor on board the Government transports and sald that ‘when the Firemen's Union entered a pro- test he lp&enmd before the Sccretary of State at Washington. who assured him that steps would ba immediately taken toward dispensing with Chinese labor.

You should come to the polls to vote, not for this man, but for your friend and countryman, Mr. Graves. The Exact Speech. The following is the exact speech de- livered by Mr. McLachlan in Congress on the 24th day of February, 1896, when the Indian bill was under consideration in the House, as reported In the Congressional Record of the first session of the Fifty- fourth Congress, on page 2354: Mr. Chalrman: When the district appro- priation bill was before the House the other day for discussion I was surprised to learn that this Government had been in the habit of mak- ing large appropriations to imstitution: trolled by various sectarian denomination: I voted then to strike from the bill every appro- priation to a sectarlan institution of any kind, including one to a Protestant denomination of which I have the honor of being a member. I have the satisfaction of knowing now that I acted then not only according to my own con- victions of right, but that I have the approval of my constituents in so doing. For the same reason that I opposed that bill I am opposed to the provisions of this bill as reported by the Committes on Indian Affair: appropriating more than a quarter of a million doliars to the Indian schools under the special management and control of a sectarian nominatfon. and am In favor of the amendm: of the genfleman from Michigan directing money to be expended by the Government In awn_schools for the education of these Indian children. To make the appropriation recommendsd by the committes would, in my judgment. be an unwarranted disposition of public funds. a groes violation of the conmstitution and dia- metrically opposed to the principles of our government. Personally I make no wur upon the r of any man. On the contrary, I join with ail good American citizens ia strenuou ing for the principle that accords to every mad. ‘woman and child the right to worship God ac- cording to the dictates of hia or her own con science, but I contend no less earnestly for prineiple that in this Government of ours thers must ever be a completes separation of church and state. TEat this prineiple has often been violated in the past by approprtations similar to the one mow sought to be passed through this Congress is no argument why it ehould be again violated, though the custom has become ve: le with age. The pages of history are darkened by the records of the fatal results of just such Jeg's- lation as that proposed by this Biil, and same pages abound in warnings to all nations of the earth to sacredly sdvold des even) the all legislation for the special bemefit of any sect or_denomination. Fven in these later days the ominous warn- ing comes from the neighboring Deminfon of Canada, now threatened With war and dis formidable effort of to compel the prov!
