P. A. Bergerot, chalrman of the Repub- Il‘can County Committee, was next intro- duced. He provoked laughter in the be- ginning by referring to “sandiotism nearly a century ago,” but what was meant by the statement was not explained.

The fight between the var- ious parties in the field is now on in earmest. s o duced the various candidates, pretty much as is done at a convention, when the candidates ure told to rise and let the multitude behold them. Not even Mr. Wolf's funny stories could hold the audl- ence together when the introductions were said. Chairman Asher appealed to the crowd to be scated, as there were still other good things on the oratorical menu. AW. H. Cobb was called upon to restrain | the flcelng throng, but his remarks were | 1ost_in the u roar. The chairman there- upon declared the meeting adjourned. John Lackmann Club.

Gup- till, a designer and artist, filed a suit for matntenance agalnst her husband yester- day. She alleges that she commenced stmilar proceedings some time ago, but that she consented to a dismissal of the suit because Guptill promised her $20 a month. He lived up to the agreement, she alleges, for a few months and then geased paying tne stipulated —amount. Mrs. Guptili further alieges that her hus- band Is very anxious to secure a divorce She aiso al- leges that he has offered to buy her a home in Fruitvale if she would consent to his securing a decree of divorce.

(4 HE Twenty-ninth Distriet Demo- crats assembled last night at Ploncer Hall to listen to ad- dresses by the municipal candi- dates. Enthusiastic demonstra- tions marked the meeting from beginning to end. Of the many speeches made, that ot Joseph S. Tobin eliclted the greatest applause. J. J. Sweeny acted as chairman. After | short speeches by Supervisors Booth and | Dwyer Tobin was introduced. Several | tlmes three cheers were lustily given, and it was some little time before he could be- | gin his speeech. He sald: | “When a man hgs been fossed for many | days in thick weather and upon an unknown | sea, he naturally avails himsclt of the first pause In the storm, the first ray of sunshine, to take his beurings and ascertain how far the elements have driven him from his true comse, Let us imitate this prudence, before we flont further upon the waves of this debate glance at the punt from which we have departed that we may at least be able to conjecture where we now are.'’ ‘These, geutlemen, are the words of the im- \ mortal Daniel Webster on_opening his reply to Hayne in the United States Senate. These soothing and eminently proper words | t us turn to the | wi a vilage, when the water lapped the spot where Mont- gomery street now stretches, when the spot where we stand Was _a tand hill; when the Palace Hotel site was but a waste of sand, covered with willow trees. L us look at that and remember that we have grown 10 be a great city, and us a great city we demand care, we demand attention, we demand good streets, we demand good parks, we de- mand, above all, honest offialals in pubhc life. (Applause.) Issue Is Honest Government. A gentleman said to me to-day: *‘After all | there is no issue In this campaign,” and I ugree with him. There is no issue in the o dinary political sense. There Is no fusue su as that which confronted us in the last Pres dentlal campalgn, und in every Presidential | campaign that has preceded ft. There is no issue, I say, in the ordinary sense, but ther is an lssue In a specific, distinct sense at th time. There is an issue, and what is the issue? As 1 have sald before, on every night that it has been my good fortune to add the gentlemen whom 1 meet in the: meet- ings, 1 repeat It, there ls un lssue, and that tssue is the same old issue of common hon- esty. It is the issue of a government, decent and honest, concelved and executed solely for the benefit' of the people. It ix the lssue of common honesty. It Is the issue of good citi- zenship agalnst bad citizenship. There Is grand national issue Involved. It is sim the is. Do you want good men in office’” that and ‘nothing more. (Applause.) We contend that we present to you the only sound solution of that question. We do not #ay that there are o &ood men on the other | ticket. We do not say that we are the only | honesi men who have been nominated for of- | fice, but we do eay that the Republican con- vention was dominated and controlled by the Southern Railroad, and that its ticket was dictated in the law department of the Southern Pacific and that it was thrown on | the streets from the window of that depart- ment, picked up in the streets, brought into the Republican convention and approved by the figureheads who sat in the seats of that con- vention. (Applause.) This {s not mere Idle rumor, gentlemen. I do not ask you to belleve me or to belleve the als- tinguished gentlemen who will follow me on this polnt. All 1 ask of you is to read the Re- | publican newspapers. Head there what they sny of the Republican ticket and of the con- vention that nominated that ticket. Read there what they say of every man upon that ticket. Read there what they say of every man upon that ticket from the head of the ticket to the foot of the ticket. They say that no honest man, no honest man—and that is the jxsue here distinctly—that no honest man could have ac- cepted e nomination at the hande of that con- vention. (Applause.) Hand of the Railroad. We are fortunate, wentlemen, in being able to take our ammunition from the camp of the enemy. We do not have to manufacture any of our own. We do not have to carry our heavy artillery in the rcar. That is all found in the amp of the enemy. All we nave to do is to sive the command “/Charge” and the ememy curns around and lick their own allies, The question of corporate control is an old question in San Francisco. It has been thieshed out, campalgn after campalgn, until we are all tired of it. But this is an unusual presentation of the subject, because this is the i first time that the Southern Pacific Rallroad and the allled corporations have thrown off the musk and themselves stepped Into the arena. Heretofore they have offered some poor unfor- tunate us u sacrifice. Then, If defeated, they have retired and sald, ‘“We are not in polities.” But this time, gentemen, there they stand in the arena themscives. There 1s no dispute. ‘There they stand. If licked this time they may in future say they are not in politics, but it they do say 5o it will be because you had the good sense to take a good sound lick at them this time, now that they have exposed them- selves in the open view. I say that it is un- usual; it is more than unusual; it is the- only time that it has ever happencd. other day a man who practically con- trols this* ticket, who nominated this ticket, was asked by & man who is in sympathy with him to a great extent—who contends that the lowering of water rates, the assessing of {ran- chises and the other screws that we have put on corporations justly—I say such a man who cenetnde that this sort of action drives them into poiltics, said: “‘What have you made this awful mis for? Why have you nominated such a nauseating. such a horrfble, such a re- voltng ticket? Don't you know that every- body says you have decelved yourself and not the public; that they say, and say justly, ‘We know who'is behind that mask, that face that i3 presented to us: we know it is the allied corporations and their allies, the bosses.” Why have you dome thiz? Could you not put up some men and decelve the dear old public In the same old way?’ And this man who nom- Inated the ticket sald he thought then at that time that he had a cinch, and 1t did not make any difference whom heé nominated. and he gaid: “'I am tired of getting the double cross. This time I put up men that when I press. the button I know where they stand.”” (Applause.) Vote for Honest Men. Gentiemen, that is the issue. It cannot be avolded. It confronts you and It confronts me and it confronts all.of us. The men upon the ather side are controlled by corporations, nom- inated for their own particular, specific pur- | poses. Upon this side I 1 oniy say n conclusion that you know the men that have been nominated. They have given you & guarantee of thelr honor, thelr honesty and their ability. 1t is for you to say whether you will play the fool and elect the men who have been pushed forward by the Southern Pacific Rallroad and. the other corporations, or wheth- er you will elect the men whom you have al- ready had in office and found honest, compe- tent and faithful officlals. (Applause.) That is the issue, gentlemen. It is & simple one. You are the people to answer it. Think about it. and before you decide and cast your vote, remember where your property Interests lie; ‘where your patriotic Interests lle, d where your interests as good. patriotic, ing citizens of San Francisco lle. (Applause. After Tobin's speech several pmlo;fied cheers and a tiger were freely given. en came epeeches by Edmond Godchaux, Pat- rick_Boland, George Dahlbender, Frank- lin K. Lane, Judge Fritz, Justus'S. War- dell, Joseph Fassler, Samuel Braunhart and District Attorney Byington. The meeting ended with music by the band. BANKER MORGAN |10 LOOK AFTER TICOMS BUEST Epecial Dispatch to The Call. TACOMA, Oct. 19.—J. Plerpont Morgan arrived here late this afternoon, accom- panfed by a distinguished party of Epis- | copal Bishops and clergymen. They left | Portland shortly before noon, taking | luncheon In dining-cars while crossing the | Columbla River. At the speclal request | of Mr. Morgan, President Mellen of the Northern Pactfic hurried West from St. Paul and met him at Portland. Mr. Morgan evinced great interest in the condition of the Northern Pacific as | they passed over the Pacific division, and | especially in the huge ferryboat Tacoma, by which all trains are carried across Columbia River. He took much satisfac- tion in inspecting the company's termi- nuls in Portland and in hearing from Mr. Mellen the detafls of the mammoth 1m- provements now being carried out jn Ta- coma and along Columbin River, where | the new line {s belng buflt from Kalama | to Vancouver. In Vancouver a $1,000,000 | bridge across the Columbia will event- | ually be bullt.

New ter- minals are being constructed here with especlal reference to the development of the trans-Pacific trade and it is in this feature of Northwestern traffic that Mr. Morgan has evinced especial Interest. - Outside of Northern Pacific affalrs Mr. Morgan was most ' pleaged in Tacoma with a large collection of elks’ heads and Alaskan furs, of which he purchased ifberally.

Ran- t! . OUR INTERESTS Thad 8. Sharretts, the Commissioner appointed by President Roosevelt to rep- resent the United States at the meeting of representatives of the powers to revise China’s tarlff rates, arrived here yesterday and is at the Palace. The Chinese Gov- ernment owes an indemnity of $400,000,000 to the powers. This debt it has promised to pay. Before the treaty was signed, however, a clause was made in the docu- ment allowing the powers to revise the tariff rates at present prevailing in China, %0 that the debt could be paid more ex- peditiously. The Commissioner says that before he left Washington he had a long interview with President Roosevelt. The President sald that he deemed this a m impor- tant commission and that it was of vital importance to this country, especially to the Pacific Coast. The President wished Commissioner Sharretts to make every ef- fort to foster the open door policy and to see that American goods received all due reccgnition under the new tariff. While In China Commissioner Sharretts will make a careful study of the com- mercial situation and be prepared to make a report in reference to a new commer- clal treaty that may be made between this country and China. .

PERSONAL MAGNETISM ‘ACollege, Chartered Under State Laws,With a Capital of $100,~ 600, for the Purpose of Teaching Personal Mag= nstism and Hypno- tism by Corre- spondence. EVERYBODY MAY NOW LEARN Ten Thousand Copics of a Valu= able Work on These Sciences to Be Given Away to Ad~ vertise the College. The American College of Sciences, of Philadelphia, Pa., is a novel Institution. It is chartered under State laws, with & capital of $100,000, for the purpose of teaching Personal Magnetism, Hypnotism, Magnetic Healing, etc., by correspond- ence. At an expense of over $5000 the college has issued a remarkable work on these sciences, ten thousand coples of which will be given away absolutely free. The book is elegantly illustrated with the most expensive engravings, and it is decidedly the finest and most comprehensive work of its kind ever published. It is the pro- duct of the combined talent of thirty dis- tinguished hypnotic specfalists and sci- entists. It thoroughly explains all the hidden secrets of Personal Magnetism, Hypnotism, Magnetic Healing, etc. It Is full of surprising experiences, and makes many startling disclosures In regard to the use and possibilitles of this secret power. The college absolutely guarantees that any one can learn these sciences in a few days at home, and use the power without the knowledge of his most intimate friends. The reporter asked for the names and addresses of some of the pupils so that ke might communicate with them person- ally. Several hundred were offered, from which the reporter selected elghty-four. The replies received were more than suf- ficlent to convince the most skeptical in regard to the wonderful benefits to be de- rived from this mighty power. There were absolutely no fafiures. All had learned to make practical use of the sclences. The following extracts are taken at random from the letters, for the benefit of read- ers: J. H. Schneller, 1412 Avon street, La Crosse, Wis,, writes: ‘‘Hypnotism truly reveals the secrets of life and the mysteries of nature. My own father could not have convinced me of its wonder{ul power it I had not actually tested it for myself. 1 comsider a kmowledge of it invaluable to those who wish to get the most out of life; to those who wish to achieve suc- full measure of their cess and live up to the posstbilities.” Mrs. Effie M. Watson, Martinaville, Ind., writes: ““Hypnotism opens the road to health, happiness rmy. It should be studled by every one. I would not part with my knowl- edge of it for any amount. The amount. have developed within me a force of character. and abiiity to influence and control people that 1 did not dream I could acquire’” J. W. Clinger, M. D.. Springfleld, writes: “1 have used the methods of notism taught by the American Sciences In two cases of difficult surgical oper- ations with perfect success. It is a complete anaesthetic and ngrelmhla to chloroform or ether. I acquired a practical kmowledge of hypnotism in less than three daye. The book s grand.” Rev. T. W. Butler, Ph.D., Idaho City, Idaho, writes: ‘I have cured a number of chronic cases of rheumatism. dyspepsia and paralysts of long standing: 1 bave not had a single fafl- ure: I consider a knowledge of Personal Mag- netism invaluable.
