If you elect me as your Mayor I assure you I will do everything in my power to make the conditions of Wwork- ngmen better than they are. We will give the city a wise and conservative government and one of which we will feel proud when our terms expire. We need your help and I sincerely trust that after mext Tuesday we will strike ferror into the hearts of professional polit corrupt bosses. The labor candidates mext appeared at Wackenrueder's Hall, at Wool and Eu- genia streets, where a small crowd was in attendance. At this point a_plasterer named Conlon attaeked P. H. McCarthy of the Building Trades Council for his at- titude toward the labor ticket. He de- clared that McCarthy was a dictator whose word was utterly unworthy of cre- dence. When Schmitz rose to speak he was cheered with considerable enthusi- asm. He s2id in part: The union laboring men of the city should rally to the support of the Labor ticket on Tuesday. They should not be influenced by the articles appearing in the papers concerning the labor candidates, for all of them are inspired and paid for by the capitalists who control the | opposition parties.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.—The ap- proaching centennial celebration of the Louisiana purchase has suggested to the treasury bureau of statistics the compila- | tion of some data fegarding the present | conaition and productions of the territory | included within that purchase. This state- ment shows that the land area of the Louisiana purchase exceeds that of the original thirteen States, being 864,94 square miles, against a total land area of 520,944 square miles in the The States and Territor- in part from its area number fourteen, | and their population in 1900 was 14,708,616, against a population of less than' 100,000 in the territory at the time of its pur- | chase. Their total area is nearly one- third that of the entire Union, and their population about one-fifth that of the en- tire United States. They of wheat and in 1900 264,000,000 , at , their total of that of the entire United States. They produced 603,000,000 bushels of corn in 18%0 1,013,000,000 bushels in 1900, with a value in 1900 of $314,000,000, their total corn crop forming in 1890 40 per cent and in 1900 48 per cent of the total corn crop of the ‘nited States 00 311,000,000 bushels, or 38 per cent of the total product of the country, with a | valuation of $71,000,000. Their production | of barley in 190 was valued at over $10,- | 000,000, their and of rye over $2,000,000; while production of potatoes in 1900 that of hay 0,000 and that of cotton $50,000,000 in value. The total value of the agricultural products of the States formed from the Louisiana purchase, including in that cat- egory simply wheat, corn, oats, barley, rye, y, potatoes and cotton, was in 1890 $670,000,000, and in 1900 $755,000,000. The wool | f these States amounted to 61,- in 1894 and in 1900 to 100, per cent of the total wool ct of the country, with an estimated value of about $15,000,000, or equal to the cost of the entire area. The value of the farm animals in these States in 15% was $772,000,000, and in 1900 $825,000,000. Add to v measured farm products the value of the wool, the sugar, y and, poultry products and the proportion of the livestock annually turned into provisions and it may be safely estimated that their agricultural products during a single year amount to ne hundred times the original cost of area, or, In other words, that its cost is repaid by 1 per cent of the agricultural productions of each recurring year. The product ofthe mines is also very great. 1899 amounted to 22,000,000 tons, 14,000,000 in 18%; the iron ore to 8,491.000 tons in 1900, against 1,269.000 tons in 1890 produc the silver product of 1899 was $50,300,768 | in coinage value, against $44,799,998 in 1890, and gold, $37,712,400 in 189, against $ 650,000 in '1890.

Schmitz was well received here, and when called upon to speak delivered the address quoted above. Teutonia Hall, at Ninth and Howard streets, was then visited, v..erc Schmitz addressed tne boxmakers, who were giving a party to their women friends. He again alluded to the attacks | made against him by a hostile press and urged his hearers not to pay any atten- tion to what he termed ‘‘campaign lies which_are paid for.” Other speakers were Messrs. Eagan, Daughney, Kugler, Getchell, Kenney and Roberts. At the conclusion of his speech at hall Schmitz retired to his home. TURKEY YIELDS T0 THE FRENCH Sultan Again Promises toPay All Demands Made. | -PARIS, Nov. 2—The dispatch of Ad- miral Caillard’s squadron from Toulon to Turkish waters has already had its ef- fect. The French Foreign Office to-day received a telegram from M. Bapst, Councillor of the ¥rench Legation at Con- | stantinople, announcing that the Sultan vesterday sent him a message accepting all the ¥rench claims, including the Lor- endo claim. The Porte also telegraphed to the French Minister of Foreign Af- fairs, M. Del Casse, informing him that the Lorendo claim had been settled and that the Sultan had signed an irade ac- cepting the figure nxed by France for the payment of the claim. M. Del Casse pro- ceeded to the Elysce Palace and to the | Ministry of the Interior, and consulted | with President Loubet, the Premier, M. | Waldeck-Rousseau, and the Minister of | Marine, M. de Lanessan. He afterward Lad another conferenge with M. Waldeck- Rousseau. It is said the French Govern- ment also demands an undestanding that Turkey will not renew the recent interfer- ence with the diplomatic mail bags. LONDON, Nov. 2.—A dispatch to a news agency from Rome says that the second division of the Italian Meditter- ranean squadron has started for Turkey, that the object s said is to counterbal- ance the French naval demonstrations. B Py PROTECTORATE OVER SYRIA. NEW YORK, Nov. 2.—A World special from Paris says: France demands a vir- | tual protectorate over Syria as compensa- tion for the attempt made upon her pres- tige in the East by Turkey. This is in addition to the satfsfaction of all her other claims against the Sublime Porte. information received through the Turk- ish Embassy confirms the report that the Sultan has accepted all the French claims, including the Lorando claim. But the French Government will not accept this settlement, and now requires the fu.- ther satisfaction of the protectorate over Syria. An official of the Foreign Office said to-day: “The Suitan is mistaken if he imagines that he can arrest thc march of our war- | ships by such expedients.” Meanwhile the warship activity at Tou- lon continues and the French squadron is proceeding toward Turkey for the purpose of making a naval demonstration. Bey- rout is now said to be the objective point. B e e e e Y ) territory. Their capital stock amounted in 1900 to over $80,000,000: their circulation to $36,600,000 in 1900, against $15,644,000 in 1890; their loans and discounts to $317,563,- 000 in 1900, against $269,016,000 in 159, and their total resources, $1.099,111,000 in' 1900, against $746,903,000 In 18%; while a stili more gratifying evidence of the prosperity of this section is in the fact that Individ- ual deposits “in national banks in 1900 amounted to $329,699,000, against $216,609,000 in 189, an increase of more than $110,000,- 000 in"individual deposits during the’ dé- cade. A study of educational conditions shows equally rapid and gratifying development. The pupils enrolled in the public schools in the States in question in 1890 num- bered 258,49, and in 1899, 3,161,112; the teachers employed numbered in 1890, 89,- 558, and in 1899, 102202, and the expendi- | tures for public_schools in 1890 was $30,- | 284,752, and in 1899, $37,18,881. The num- ber of pupils in attendance at high schools in 1899 was 113,847, with 4937 “teachers; at normal schools, 15843 students, with 625 teachers, and at higher educational insti- tutions, 40,249 students, with 3925 teachers. The total figures for schools and educa- tional institutions in the fourteen States formed from the Louislana purchase show: Teachers in 1890, 95,365; in 1899, 111,- 689; attendance in 1890, 2,670,541; in 1899, L £ e number of newspapers and period- fcals published in this area in 1800 wes 4759, and in 1909, 5618; the number of po: offices in 1890, ‘12,919, and in 1900, 16, the miles of railway in operation in 18% numbered 51,823, and in , 59,324, or 31 per cent of the total railway mileage of the country. The power of this vast area, with its agricultural and mineral wealth, to sus- taian a population much greater than that which it now supports is suggested by a comparison of its area with the area and population of the prosperous countries of Europe. The total area of the Louisiana purchase_(including land and water sur- face) is 875,025 square miles, and is slight- Iy less than that of the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Spain, Italy and Switzerland, whose total area Is 885,978 square miles, with a present population of 202.363.573, as against a present population of 14,708,616 in territory under consideration, whose agricultural and mineral possibil- A tair trial will convince you. itles fully equal those of the Buro) states named. e o+ WELLS CLOSES HIS CAMPAIGN - IN ONE SPEECH Railroad Candidate for Mayor Talks to Small Crowd at Twin Peaks —_—— Gives Audience Nothing of- His Opinions and Ignores Vital Issues — SA R. WELLS closed his cam- paign last evening with a speech addressed to eighty-four voters of the Thirty-sixth District. who gathered in Twin Peaks Hall, Noe and BSeventeenth streets. The railroad candidate for Mayor again avoided any reference to the vital issues of the campaign and in- formed his slim audience that if the mem- bers desired to learn anything as to his opirions they might do so by reading “his policy of administration,” which Southern g: cific wire pullers have put forward for m. The fight of Wells to be elected Mayor of San Francisco ended in the faint ap- plause of a few admirers and a crowd of little boys. The speech made by Mr. Wells was as follows: : My Friends: - I did not intend to go out at all this evening, but I was urged to do so by some friends in this district, where I have a great many good, substantial friends. It is not ex- pected that I am to say_much about the is- sues. Trat, I think, has been fully gone over. My views are in print for everybody to read, and I believe that you will be in perfect ac- cord with my intentions should I be elected. I have been through this distirct some con- siderable within the last two or three weeks and it is changed so very materially from the days when I used to drive here and keot in perfect touch with the improvements and growth of this important part of the city that I hardly knew many faces that were familiar to me, and I assure you that the district— that the prospect it has for the future should receive attention, and it will be my endeavor should I be elected—which I will be—to en- courage your Supervisor from this district in any good improvement. I promise you that I will not neglect you in the least in any matter where I have anything to say about ft. T ex- pect to hear good reports from this district on election day.

I think if you will follow my published views in reard to those things that you will see that 1 have given the matter some attention and that I will be your friend in whatever course you will eventually wish to pursue in that matter. I thank you. The meeting was also addressed by John Farnham, P. J. Gray, J. F. Ahearn, Harry Baehr, William Offerman, Thomas W. Collins, Charles A. Low, Jo M. Wil- kins and John Lackmann. SCEMITZ IS NOT INDORSED BY THE LABOR COUNCIL Crganization Follows Policy of tke American Federation and Keeps Out of Politics. The following communication from the Labor Council sets at rest the assertions made that the organization has given its indorsement to the candidacy of Eugene E. Schmitz for Mayor: To the Editor of The Call.—Sir: The Labor Council, following the policy lald down by the American Federation of Labor, has always re- fused to place itself on_record for or against any political parties. But here it ought to be stated that again and again some inter- national unions affiliated with the American Federation of Labor have by resolutions urged upon their members independent political ac- tlon. Following that policy a number of local unions have indorsed the Union Labor party. So when a motion Friday night was made at the regular weekly meeting of the Labor Council to jndorse the Union Labor party, President Michael Casey refused to entertain the motion, holding that such matters are out- side of the adopted policy of the American Federation of Labor and thus outside of the policy of the San Francisco Labor Council, the local agent of the Federation. The president stated in support of his ruling that a number of affiliated unions had, as it was within their province, indorsed the Union Labor party, and “that the Labor Council was not called upon nor should act on such matters. The dele- gates sustained the chair in his ruling. This statement is issued because interested parties are trying to mislead the pubHc as to the intent of the Labor Council's action on this matter.

It used to be considered that only uri- nary and bladder troubles weresto be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all diseases have their beginning in the disorder of these most important organs. The kidneys filter and purify the blood— that is their work. So when your kidneys are weak or out of order you can under- stand how quiekly your entire body is af- fected, and how every organ seems to fall to do its duty. If you are sick or “feel badly.” begin taking the famous new discovery, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, because as soon as your kidneys are well they will help all the other organs to health. A trial will convince any one. Many women suffer untold misery becasse the mature of their dissase is nmot correctly understood; in most cas:s they are led to believe that womb troubls or female weakness of som: sort is responsible for thar many ills, when in fact disorder:d Eidnsys ars the chief cause of their distressing troubles. Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy or dark circles under the eyes, rheuma- tism, a dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weakness or bearing down sensa- tion, profuse or scanty supply of urine, with strong odor, frequent desire to pass it night or day, with scalding or burning sensation—these are all unmistakable signs of kidney and bladder trouble. If there is any doubt in your mind as to your condition, take from your urine on rising about four ounces, place it in a glass or bottle and let it stand twenty- four hours. If on examination it is milky or cloudy, if there is a brick dust settling, or if small particles float about in it, your kidneys are in need of immediate atten- tion. Other symptoms showing that you need Swamp-Root are sleeplessness, dizziness, irregular heart, breathlessness, sallow, unhealthy complexion, plenty of ambi- tion, but no strength. Swamp-Root is pleasant to take and is used in the leading hospitals, recom- mended by physicians in their private practice, and is taken by doctors them- selves, because they recognize in it the greatest and most successful remedy that science has ever been able to compound. that If you are already convinced Swamp-Root Is what you need, purchase the regular fifty-cent dollar bottles at the drug stores every- where. been creditably directed by Dr. T.

He is a_son of a distinguished ex-Governor of California and is well known as the capable treasurer of the Building Trades Council of San Francisco. He is entitled to the support of voters on account of his integrity and capability. Citizens are called upon to elect two Police Judges. Two of the candidates de- serve especial commendation. Frank P. Haynes and A. J. Fritz ought to be elect- ed. because they possess judicial ability and special fitness. Politics should not be considered in the selection of Police Judges.

Recommends Its Cheapness. BERKELEY, Nov. 2—A special com- mittee on fire alarms reported last night at the Trustees’ meeting that the tele- phone system of alarm was entirely feas- ible and about half as expensive as the regular system. The committee was in- structed to confer with the telephone company and find the expense of having ““central” turn alarms into the fire houses ‘when the office is rung up. The proposed system provides that each firehouse shall be connected with the cen- tral telephone station by a private circuit. When an alarm is turned into central from any residence telephone the operator indicates to the firehouses the location of the blaze. The estimated cost of the sys- tem is less than $3000. Bids for supplying the town with alarm apparatus of the regular sort were rejected and the spe- cial committee, composed of Trustees Rickard, Hoff and President Marston, was instructed to report on the telephone service at the next meetlT‘: Should the telephone adopted the money saved will be spent in securing fire apparatus.
