Breed occupled the remaining carriages. As the line turned into Fourteenth street an elther side of the street in front of the theater. Cheer after cheer echoed through the throng as the carriages filed through the lane of torch bearers to the theater entrance. More cheers accompanied the long line of visitors headed by Dr. Pardee as they entered upon the stage a few min- utes later. p An oil painting of Dr. Pardee hung, fes- tooned with flags, at the back of the stage. It was flanked by portraits of President Roosevelt and of William Mec- Kinley. GREAT CROWD IN THEATER. Awaiting the opening of the theater doors was a surging crowd packed into | the lobby. It increased every moment | until 7:45 o'clock, when entrance was | given. Quickly the lower auditorium seats were filled, the overflow made into the balcony and swept still further up- ward to the gallery for space. The boxes were occupied by splendidly gowned wom- en. One in particular was a cynosure, for it contained Mrs. George C. Pardee and the four Pardee girls. It a graceful and a pretty tribute to Alameda unty’s seventy-one dele- gates to the State convention which nom- ted Pardee that they should act as the honorary vice presidents for this oc- casion. Here are the men who went to Sacra- mento a eolid phalanx for Dr. Pardee: John A. Britton, Frank Barnett, P. W. Bell- H ingall, Arthur Everett J. Brow Breed, F. E. Brigham, Gemmell, F. B.

The meeting was a veritable lovefeast. Dr. Pardee’s ovation was in keeping with ihe occasion, and his speech touched a re- sponsive chord in the great audience. It was vigorous, straight from the shoulder and unequivocal. It was a speech of gratitude to his “friends and neighbors” and of defiance to his detractors, and a forceful argument for the maintenance of Republicanism. Dr. Pardee did not mince words in dealing with the labor question. He de- fined his attitude in a plain, wholesome way, and left nothing unsaid that might enlighten the people of California upon that phase of the situation. It was at once a speech of heartfelt thanks to his fellow citizens and his townsmen, and as well a battlecry for the campaign that was so splendidly opened to-night. There was inspiration enough in the surroundings for Dr. Par- dee and his fellow Republicans who spoke last night. Here are the names of the men who sat in that assemblage on the stage: Charles F. Curry, General Senator_George C. Perkins, Hon. Orrin Hen- derso, Frank C. JordanN Alden Anderson, George C. Pardee, Senator E. K. Taylor, Clar- ence Crowell, Hon, Victor H. Metcalt, J. O.

With one accord the voices | of 2000 people went up ia @ welcoming cheer, then cheer on cheer was given. The men were on their feet and the women clapped their hands and helped to swell i the volume of nolse. | " Acknowledging the plaudits of his friends and fellow townsmen, Dr. Pardee looking I Alliance and { stood smiling and bowing and as happy as a schoolboy. When the ap- | plause subsided Dr. Pardee took his seat and soon the vice presidents and guests | trooped in and flanked him on either side. | | The silence was broken again when the | ‘Republican Alliance found its position at the rear of the stage. Varney Gaskill proposed three cheers for Dr. Pardee. They. were given rousingly and theh came a call for a cheer from Captain Kick of the Young Men's Republican Club, whose men responded with the same enthusiasm. | The usual manner of inaugurating polit- ical meetings was departed from by the introduction of the Pardee Glee Club, composed of Everett Dowdle, Charles Hart, Charles Learn ahd Frank Ayers, who sang familiar songs with words ap- plicable to the success of the Republican party and the discomfiture of the Demo- cratic party. The meeting was called to order by Clarence M. Crowell, chalrman of the Re- publican County Central Committee, who said: g It is my proud privilege as chairman of the Republican County Central Committee to open ! thie splendid meeting. As I look around me and see this great crowd I cannot help but think that Alameda is well favored in having such a large number of loyal Republicans. It is well favored in having two honored and fa- | vorite sons—Dr. George C, Pardee and Frank C. Jordan—whose names shine out on the Re- publican ticket. And I hope that when you are rolling up your majorities in November next their names will be written With the | same numbers opposite them. The ticket is a splendid one and it deserves the commendation of every Republican in the State of California. It give me great pleasure tosintroduce to you @s chalrman of the evening a man whom you all know, the Hon. Victor H. Metcalf. METCALF IS CHAIRMAN. The name of Mr. Metcalf was the signal for another round of applause and when it died away the distinguished Congress- man began at once his address. As a member of the recent Republican con- vention at Sacramento I want to indorse the nominees of that convention. It was the largest convention in the history of the Republican party in this State. It was the most repre- sentative Republican convention. We are here for the purpose of ratifying that ticket, but more especlally for the purpose of offering our congratulations to the favored sons of this county whose names appear upon that ticket. The present Republican administration has given this State the most economical adminis- tration ever given to it; it has given the low- est tax rate; but I want to say. that when Dr. Pardee is put into office next January he will begin an administration that will be still more economical than the present. It is not for the chairman of this convention to stand here and exploit the deeds of his party, for there are others here walting to do that very thing, but I want to say that if you want Dr. Pardee In office you have got to stand to- gether and do all you can to help him there. Eight years ago this country was in the | depths of despair, labor was unemployed and | our mills were 1dle. But four years of McKin- leylsm changed/these conditions and he gave the country such an administration that this State, which had wavered over him at his first cgndidacy, gave him a majority of 40,000 in 1901. Now there is prosperity everywhere. Men are employed. We are going ahead. We are now in a position to compete With the world. This is due to a great extent to the tariff Jaws and the system of protection. We are sending our goods now to every part of the world. Where once the tide of trade was against us it is nmow with us, and we are frightening the world with our strenuous in- dependence. There are tremendous movements beingfmade in this country of ours. The EroWth and development of these States are marvelous. We cannot afford to change our Governors now. We can't afford to check the tide of prosperity that has come upon us, or ¢log the wheels of progress. And above all we cannot afford to change in California, We have planted the flag in the Philippines. There it will stay in spite of our Democratic friends. It will never be lowered. That flag stands for freedom and good government in those islands just as much as it does here. It is our duty to free the Filipinos from the bonds of ignorance and superstition and make :lheT useful citizens of the world and we will o it. ADMIRES ROOSEVELT. I want to express my admiration for. Presi- dent Roosevelt. Knowing him as I do and how he loves the West and its people, I desire to say that it is for us to support him ardently ‘when he comes before us in 1904, 1 would llke to say something about our ticket and the magnificent fight Frank Jor- dan made, but I desire to leave that to some | f— z i TZTFE I PROMINENT REPUBLICANS OF THE STATE WHO PARTICIPATED IN | THE GREAT OPENING RALLY OF THE CAMPAIGN AT THE MAC- DONOUGH THEATER IN OAKLAND LAST NIGHT. —— work, whether performed in public or private establishments.” What has the Republican party done for the laboring man?

The furnace cooled the mills shut down and ruin, misery and want seized hold upon our people. Even here in Oakland—Osakland, the queen city of the western shore—the unemFloyed were numbered by hundreds, and it was necessary to inaugurate public charitl to keep them from actual starvation. Who does not remember the relief com- mittee and the public subscriptions to re- lleve the distress of those whom a Demo- cratic administration had deprived os work and made hungry and homeless? The sight of those gloomy browed, gaunt featured fellow citizens of ours who were forced by the sternest of Democratic ne- cessity to work upon the streets and upon the boulevard, their. pay \subscribed by public charity—the sight of these fellow townsmen of ours, with empty dinner x4 ITAIN, B 2 one else, - All its men are upright and honest and ought to receive your suffrages. It is now my pleasure to introduce to you a man whom you all know, whose name I hardly need men- tion, Dr. George C. Pardee, the next Gov- ernor of California. As Dr. Pardee stepped forward he was greeted with tremendous cheering, the audience rising and continuing the dem- onstration for five minutes. When the outburst subsided Dr, Pardee addressed the assemblage. His speech in full fol- lows: HAS GRATITUDE FOR THE HONOR Appreciates the Confidence of His Friends and Neighbors. Y friends and neighbors: Standing here before you this evening as the nominee of the Republican party for the highest position that can be conferrea upon any one by the people of my native State, the echoes of your plaudits still ringing in my ears, I am filled with the deepest gratitude for your kindness and your goodness thus publicly expressed. And this expression of your good will is all the more grate- ful to me because I have grown up here among you, and you know me as only friends and neighbors can know one whose life has been passed among you. At your hands I have recelved every honor and consideration that you can confer upon me, and I am prouder far than words can half express that by your presence here this evening you still ex- press your confidence and your friend- ship, and by your warm and kindly greetings lead me to hope that, at the bar of your public opinfon at which I am now again on trial, the verdict may not be one of condemnation. ‘What shall I say to you? How can I Xpress, how can &ny one express, a tithe of the feelings that surge and seethe through my mind as I gaze out into your friendly faces and pick out here and there so many who, now gray haired, have lald their hands in benediction on my_ childish head, and now come here to bid me godspeed toward the goal that any man might well be proud to win? ‘Words are poor indeed at such a time as this, and what I say cannot lay bare the |love and high esteem in which, my friends and neighbors, I hold you all. It 18, in deed, a high and great position toward which the great Republican party of this State has seen fit to set my face. To be the Governor of California, to guide our ship of state for four long years, to be the one toward whom the people of this great State shall look as one whom they have chosen above all oth- ers to sit in the highest place within thelr gift, should fill the cup of even the most ambitious to overflowing. And if the people of this State_should choose me for their Governor I shall always{ fecl that if they place this great trust within my hands and this great respon- | sibility upon my shoulders they will do it out of compliment to the sturdy, un- swerving Republicanism of Alameda | County and because she has asked it at the hands of the party, rather than be- cause of any claim I myself may have upon its good graces. And yet, although I stand here to- Tight prohd and happy as the nom- | ince of my party for Governor of the | State of California, I appreciate the grent respomsipiliifes, the onero uties and the multitudinous cares that he who assumes the robes of of- fice must take up. And while I feel my own shortcomings and tremble for fear I may not be able to fill the expectations of my generous friends, yet it I should be chosen Governor of California I wshall be Governor myself, and all my acts, be they good or bad, wise or foolisl, will be my own, free and untrammeled. For no man, nor set of men, shall ever be able to dictate a single act of mhehor compel me to do one sin- #le thing that to me does not seem just and proper. For I am glad and proud to say to you that e con- vention at Sacramento honored me with this nomination withgut my having given to any one single pledge or promise of any kind, ex- cept n pledge to support the Repub- Hean platform and to give the peo- ple of this State, should tifey see fit 1o elect me Governor, as g0od an ad- ministration of their affairs as lies in my power to give—and that pledge I shall keep as surely as I live. I, therefore, g0 before the peo- ple of California with clean hands, promising them the best that in me lies, and giving my allegiance to them and to them alone. CALUMNY MUST BE EXPECTED Already False Rumor Says Speaker Is an Aristocrat. et F course, when one becomes a can- O didate for office he must expect to have leveled at him all the batter- ies of those opposed to him. He must expect (and he will not be disap- pointed in his expectations) that™delumny will be heaped upon him, that slander will assall him and that the whisper of un- truth will be set to make its silent rounds among the people who have the power to choose or reject him. 'Already has the latter happened in the case of him who now stands before you. They say that I am an aristocrat; that I wear a white shirt. Is that a crime? Would they have a candidate for Governor do otherwise? But, whatever they may say, let them not forget that the white collar that I wear is the only one that ever has or ever can encircle my neck, and that I wear no other badge of servitude. They say, too, that I am the laboring man's enemy. I have lived here in Oakland near- 1y all my life, have gone to s and grown up with many who are now high in the councils of the trades unions. And no man dare say that I have any closer or better friends than those whom ve known so long and so well. My principles are too well known to those who are acquainted with me to permit them to be swerved by the false and senseless whisper that I am an enemy of any class of my fellow citizens. Let those who know me best, and you my friends who have been so kind to me these many years—Ilet those schoolmates and are friends answer for me question is asked if I am the enemy of the laboring man. My father (than whom no better man ever lived) was-proud to relate how, when he was a young man, he was a cooper— and I think I am safe in saying that he ‘was a good cooper, too. It was his pride to say that he worked from sunrise to sunset in the cooper-shop making flour barrels at 10 cents aplece, and considered he had earned a big wage when he had put together nine or ten barrels in a day’s hard work. To say, then, that I am the laboring man’s enemy is to that I am my dead father's enemy. And even r%y t:m“ bitter enemy will not dare say thai 3 I told you a little while ago that I had pledged myself to support the platform of my party, and in that platform I find the following plank: “‘President osevelt has pursued a broad and enlightened forelgn and do- mestic policy and has shown himself to be a friend of the great West by his frank indorsements of such measures peculiarly favored by the Pacific Coast as the recla- mation of arid lands, the isthmian canal and the exclusion of Chinese cheap la- bor.” “And_this also: ‘“We condemn all conspiracies and com- bines to restrict business, to create mon- opolies, to it production, or to control prices, and favor such legislation as will effectually restrain and prevent all such abuses, promote and protect competition and secure their rights to producers, la- borers and all who are engaged in indus- try and commerce.” And this also: ‘“We advocate the con- struction of Government ships in Govern- ment navy yards. We urge upon Con- gress that the national ’Ialit-hom- law be extended to apply to Government — ! pails, going to their toil, eager to earn even by this means to Keep their wives and children from direst want—the sight of these men, our people, ought to have made every American citizen blush for shame at even the mention of the word “Democracy.” It was the sight of these people and the great distress that then pervaded this whole land that placed in the Presidential chair that great ruler, that good citizen, that devoted husband and that man of men, our martyred Pres- ident, William McKinley. RESULTS FROM WISE POLICY Prosperity of the Present Due to Republican Principles. N PUEREC LR AS any one forgotten how, under H his beneficent rule, the fires under our cold furnaces again were lighted up? how the factories again opened their doors and again echoed with the resounding clangor of their moving machinery, while from their wide-open. hospitable doors there streamed at close of day happy throngs of contented men and women rejoicing in their regained prosperity and bearing back to their well-filled larders the empty dinner pails that they had taken with them, filled to the brim, when they walked, laughing and jesting, to their daily work? This is no idle tale, and there is not a man or a woman in the city of Oak- land or the State of California who does not know it to be true. Who among you has forgotten how Oakland looked in those days? “To let,” “to let,” “to let” stared us in the face from nearly every other house; building was paralyzed and there were in the city of San Francisco alone 6000 vacant houses in the last year of Democratic misrule of this great nation. Here in Oakland, as well as in every other part of this great country, business was paralyzed, our banks were on the verge of ruin, and no man knew what the morrow would bring forth. Con- trast that year with this. To-day Oak- land, as well as all other parts of these United States, is busy, and every one has work; wages are higher now than they hLave ever been; building is going on on all sides; money is plenty and cheaper than ever before; new mannfactories are starting up on all sides; new enterprises confront us every day; new railroads and new ferries have become so common as hardly to arouse our passing interest; there are no houses to let, while new ones are springing up as fast as their builders can get the labor and the materlals to hurry them to comple- tion. And where are the gaunt and hungry men who, eight years ago, were eager to work upon our streets and al- most mobbed our relief committee for the peor privilige of recelving the char- ity which our good people so nobly placed at_their disposal? throngs that Go, look at the hap; crowd Broadway and Washington street hants. to-morrow night, and ask our mercl Consult with those who have to buy and sell. Grim want has fled from among us; the laborer swings his full dinner- pail to tho tune he whistles as he lightly speeds his happy way to the work calls him from his smiling wife ana prat- tling babes. And when payday comes he jingles in his erstwhile empty pocket the greatest wage that he has ever since those Democratic days when Cleve- land ruled and our Democratic friends were doing all they could to ruin_ every man within the confines of these United States. Remembering the sadness, the want and the ruin of those dark days of Demo- cratic rule, and contrasting them with the plenty and prosperity of McKinley's hals- gy but too short occupation of the Presl- ential chair, remembering that one was Democratic and the other was Republi- can, I cannot for the life of me unde stand how any one can have the en effrontery even to suggest to the lal 3 man that he desert the party that has given him all the good things that he now has and go back to the rlrty that, but “eight years ago, gave him nothing but miséry, want and ruin. And I do not believe that our laboring men, who have the intelligence to unite themselves together and demand and receive from capital their just dues, who are now well clcthed, well fed, well housed, who have meney 'in_the bank, and whose children go regularly to school with happy faces, anc whose wives sing blithely at their household duties, I do not believe that these men will allow themselves to be seduced back again to the misery, want and hunger that were theirs under Cleve- land, and from which the Republican party, under Mcx.lnlei. 8o quic surely saved them. do not because I know too well ing men are far too Continued on Page 3, Column 4. —>— —_— CANDIDATE’'S PRINCIPLES ARE KNOWN 66 T to school and have growna up with many whe are mow high in the councils of the trades unions.

HAYES of San Jose was intro- duced by Chairman Metcalf im- mediately following Dr. Pardee's ® speech. He was given prolonged applause. He said: About the 25th of August the people of San Jose had serious thoughts of holding the first ratification at the city of San Jose, but after the convention we agreed to let Oakland have that honor. You have claimed Dr. George C. Pardee as your own. 1 want to teil you right now that we of the Santa Clara Valley have a neighborly interest in him and claim him; too, as does the whole State. You of Alameda, which has been declared the banner county in the State, will have to look to your laurels, for if we do mot roll up a greater majority than Alameda, it will be be- cause we have a smaller population. You may depend upon it that we will make up in enthusiasm what we lack in numbers. The State of California is satisfied with what is being done by the Republican administra- tion. We, as a State, have many things to be grateful for to the Republican party, and it is our solemn duty to roll up a majority in November next which will proclaim to all the world that California stands by the party of prosperity. We want to give the rest of the United States an example which may well he followed, It is our duty to uphold the ad- ministration in its Philippine policy and pro- claim to all the righteousness of our cause. The laboring man, Who- has beem pictured by some as a disaffected and discontented be- ing, wishes a chance to earn an homest live- lihsod more than a chance to raise a cry of calamity. The Republican party has placed the workingman in a_positiop/ where he can earn a good livelihood un::yme most pros- perous condltions ever knowh. BESPEAKS LABOR'S AID. Duncan chininy Tells Party’s Achievements. Duncan McKinlay, Assistant United States District Attorney, was introduced. He said: Those of us who viewed that majestic and - imperial procession of labor on Labor day could not fail to realize that the glory of the State was represented in that parade. Will_organized labor, which has been the bulwark of the nation for thirty years, sup- port the party which tried to split the nation into fragments during civil strife? Will or- ganized labor support the party that would have dared to debase our curremcy? Wohld organized labor vote for the party that six years ago plunged the nation into grief and despair and filled the land with gaunt and hungry men, women and children without any hope for the future? Friends, I will answer those questioms. I know something of organized labor, for I sprang from the ranks myself. I wiil spenk for them. They will support the party that sprang from labor itself. Thirty years ago when millions of men and women werd freed from human slavery it was the Republican party that did it 1 believe In November next the labor of this country will vote for the party that mads ths Chinese_exclugion act law: the party that has begun legal peoceedings against the trusts; the party that has raised aloft the American flag In_bonof M the Philippines, Hawail and Porto Rieo; CHATTANOQGA, Tenn., Sept. 5.—It s es- timated that over delegates will attend ertiop of the Brotherhood which begins here oon of Monday will t of President Rheumatism ‘What is the use of telling the rheumatia that he feels as If his joints were being dislocated?
