Willows was 4| turned over to the men of the Democ- racy and the town-presented a lively ap- | pearance. Hon. Theodore Bell of Napa, nominee for Congress, was the principal speaker. He declared that if elected he would give especial attention to im- provements in the district that required Federal aid. The question of tariff and trusts he believed to be the greatest that i the people had to face. American ‘manu- facturers, he sald, were selling all kinds of goods in foreign markets %rom 10 to 100 per cent cheaper than here. This con- dition was made possible by the high tar- iff. Bell advocated the removal of the tariff from such goods and from all arti- cles controlied by trusts. The prosperity of the country, he sald, depended upon the prosperity of the farmers, and no prospert would be enduring uniess s Toots lay deep in the agricultural pur- guits of the country. The farmer must fight the trusts or be ruined by them. Bell paid a glowing tribute to the clean, manly character and unimpeachable rec- ord of Franklin K. Lane.

His speech was devoted to the tariff, as it triet where, of all places “tariff for revenue only is on earth, a not wanted.” Captain Daniels did not attempt to fill the entire time of the evening and there were other speakers. Among them was Senator A. E. Nutt, who was San Diego’s choice for the nomination that Captain Dauniels won. He said that there was no need for Republicans to sulk in the tents of disappointment; they should get out znd work. He asserted that Captain Dan- sels was unbeatable; he had tried to beat Daniels and spoke from experience.

PARDEE AND OTHER REPUBLICAN LEADERS WHO SPOKE IN INTERIOR CITIES. — % | + San Jose’s Rousing Ratification Meeting Attracts an Enthusiastic Gathering of Voters From All Sections of the County. ‘ . AN JOSE, Sept. 20.—Santa Clara County. Republicans to-night rati- fled the nomination of Dr. George C. Pardee for Governor with a big rally in Victory Theater. It was a great outpouring of the citjzens of San Jose and Santa Clara County and the large playhouse was filled by an enthusiastic audience. Palo Alto sent a delegation of 200 Stanford boys. The University of the Pacific also was well represented and residents of Los Gatos, Mountain ¢View, Mayfield and the southern end of the county down as far as Gilroy were present. The theater was crowded and many were unable to obtain seats. In the audience were many ladies. There was plenty of enthusiasm. Great interest centered in Dr. Pardee and his address and he was frequently applauded. Dr. Pardee, accompanied by Orrin Hen- derson, arrived here at 4:30 o'clock and was met at the station by a delegation of leading Republicans. He was escorted to the Hotel St. James, where he was tendered a reception until 6:30 o’clock. Many citizens called and were made ac- quainted with the nominee. The Army and Navy Republican League, headed by a band, and the Veterans, the Sons of Veterans, the Stanford Young Men's Re- publican Club and the University of the Pacific boys escorted Dr. Pardee from the hotel to the theater at 8 o'clock. E. A. Hayes, chairman of the Republi- can County Central Committee, called the meeting to order. On the stage were a large number of vice presidents. Ameri- can flags draped the stage and boxes. Hon. Joseph R. Patton was introduced as chairman of the meeting. He made a short address, referring to the prosperity under the Republican administration. W. A. Beasly, candidate for Senator in the Twenty-eighth District; Orrin Henderson, candidate _for Railroad Commissionar; Dr. Eli McClish and H. C. Jones of Stan- ford were called upon and delivered short acdresses. PARDEF’S WORDS APPLAUDED. Speech of the Leader Well Received by the Great Audience. The introduction of Dr. Pardee brought forth great applause. He spoke for about twenty minutes. His speech was well re- celved. At times he was interrupted by applause. The Stanford and University of Pacific students enlivened the meeting with tbeir yells and rattles. Dr. Pardee spoke as follows: Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen: I am glad, indeed, to stand here to-night and let you Special Dispatch to The Call. see what manner of man the Republican nominee for Governor Is. And it pleases me, as it always pleases me, to gee so many of the ladies take an interest great enough in the af- fairs of politics to cause them to come here to- night and lend the grace and beauty of their Dpresence to this oceasion. For, while we men folks affect to feel that it isn't a woman's place to be in politics, yet there isn't one of us but -knows that every American cltizen, male or female, ought to be in politics, and we know that when the ladies get interested and ‘'say a good word to their husbands, fathers, friends and sweethearts, an election is as good as won. And so I am glad to see the ladies ber2 this evening. And I hope that they will, in their quiet but effective way, do ail they can to elect the whole Republican ticket. The candidate for office is full of trials and tribulations, and the man who thinks it is an easy job to run for _Governor, even on the Re- publican ticket in Republican California, does not know how things political are done. There are things comical and things serious, things rleasant and things unpleasant, things true and things untrue, charged up against every man who aspires to become a public officer. All these things have been charged up against ine, But those Who know me best, who have watched me grow from childhood to middle age in my bome town and county, who have been most kind to me, have made me Councilman and Mayor and have thrice given me their sup- port at State conventions—my home people seem to have some little confidence in me; and I am content to leave my case to their decision and the decision of the people of my native State. But I will say this: I stand here to-night the nominee of my party without a pledge or promise, except a pledge to support my party platform and a promise to the people of the State, should they elect mé Governor, to do everything in my power to give the people of. this State as zood, clean, honest and economi- cal an administration of thelr affairs as lies in my power. And these two pledges I shall keep, 1t 1 live and am elected; and if I am elected (and 1 feel sure I shall be) I will be Governor myself, and all my acts, be they good or bad, wise or foolish, shall be mine and mine alone, free and untrammeled, without fear or favor. 1 spoke to you a few moments ago about the platform of my party. I find in that instru- ment this plank: “President Rootevelt has pursued a broad and enlightsned foroizn and domestic poliey and has shown himself to be a friend of the great West by his frank indorsement of such measures peculiarly favored by the Pacific Coast, as the reclamation of arid lands, the isthmian_canal and the exclusion of Chinese ckeap labor.” ‘And also this: ‘“‘We condemn all conspfea- cles and combines to restrict business, to cre- ate monopolies, to limit production. or to cen- trol prices, and favor such legislation as will effectually restrain and prevent all such abuses, protect and promote competition and secure their rights to producers, laborers and all who are engaged in industry and commerce.” And_this also: W2 advocate the construe- tien of Government ships in Government navy yards. We vrge upon Congress that the na- tional eight-hour law be extended to apply o all Government work., whether performed in public or private establishments.’" And also this: *‘We favor legislation which will 50 regulate the process of injunction as to prevent its exercise in abridgment of the right of free speech or peaceful assemblage.” FRIEND OF THE LABORER. Republican Party Has Filled Long- Empty Dinner Pails. These, my friends, are soma of the planks in the platform on which I stand. And I speak of them here because in San Jose there are many working people, and I want them to see that the Republican party is now, as it always has been, the friend of the laboring man. will- ing and glad to do all in its power for his up- litting and advancement. For the great party of Lincoln and Grant, the party that struck the shackles from millions of human beings ard transformed them from living chattels into free men and free women, that party helieves, as all good and thoughtful men must, that upon the welfare and advancement of the work- ing men and women must, of necessity, depend the welfare and advancemert of this nation, nay, even its very safety and perpetulty. For, when the common people, such as you and do not advance, the nation stagnates—and n: tional stagnation means national disintegration and death. It was the Republican party that gave us the protective tariff, which has kept our workingmen free from' the competition of other nations, and has made it possible for them to get work and wages for their work. It was the Republican party that closed up and made unnecessary the souphouses that were so common and so necessary under Cleve- land’e Democratic rule eight years ago. It was the Republican party that opened up the mills that opr Democratic friends and their free trade flad shut down. It was the Republican party that filled the long empty difiner palls of our American workingmen and sent them Dblithely whistling to work, leaving behind them happy homes, singing wives and smiling children. 'Wko amons you has forgotten the dreadful times of eight years ago, the smoke- less chimneys of our silent factorics standing mutely ‘sloquent witnesses to the ruln wrought by Democratic rule, the rusting spindles, the long-extinguished furnace fires and the silent forges, object lessons, so plain that he who ran might read, of the folly of permitting the par- ty of mistakes and broken promises to longer rule our land? If our American workingmen have forgotten those awful years of want, dis- tress and penury, of brcken banks, ruined men and bankrupt business houses, of Coxey ar- mies, starving men, hungry women and urhap- py children—it the American workingmen have forgotten all these things, surely the American workingwoinan, those who suffered most, whose cheerless homes, empty cupboards and bank books Wwith the entries all in red ink, with credit at the grocery, butcher shop and clothier stretched almost to breaking, with children pinched and wan—if the American workingmen have forgotten all these things, it is not possible that the American working- omen have forgotten them. or that they wil permit their fathers, husbands, brothers and sweethearts to again be fooled into voting the Democratic ticket. But our Democratic friends are saying through their orators and newspapers, “‘What has the election of a Governor of California &ot to do with hard times?"" A Governor, they say, can have no effect either way upon the tariff or make or unmake a President. But, it California should turn to the Democratic | party now, and say that it has no use for the | rarty of the dead McKinley and the living | Roosevelt, the party of progress and prosper- | ity; 1t the State of Califernia should go| Democratic this year and turn its 40,000 ma- jority of two years ago into a Demoeratic majority, that act will be taken by the people of this nation to mean that Californians are ungrateful and that, two years from now it will vote for the Democratic Presidential nom- inee. And so, when our Democratic friends tell you that the present election in California has no national importance and no influence on the coming national election two years hence, they are not telling quite the truth. Has any one forgotten how the Democratic press, just before the election in Maine a few days ago, were full of prophecies of a Demo- cratic victory in the old Pine Tree State, and pointed a moral of Democratic vie- tory two years from now, based upon their_false predictions that Maine had lost her Republican wits and was about to degen- erate into Democracy. But the old Pine State, as true to Republicanism as the needle is to the Pole star, confounded the Democratic press by giving us an unusuaily large Repub- lican majority. Let no man, nor woman either, delude himself or herself’' with the false idea that the coming election will have no influence on the reseating of Roosevelt in the Presidential chair. It will, and no one knows it better than our despairing Democrat- ic friends. BELIEVES IN UNIONISM. Organization Will Better the Condi- tion of the Workingman. 1 have been asked what would be my stand toward the labor unions and the workingman. The other day that first of American citizens, President Roosevelt, addressed a convention of the Brothernood of Locomotive Firemen. And in the course of his speech he said: *I belleve emphatically in organized labor. 1 believe in the organization of wage workers. Organiza- tion is one of the laws of our social and economic development at this time.” Making President Roosevelt's words mine I wish to say that I, too, ‘“believe emphatically in or- ganized labor.” ' I “‘believe emphaticaily’” that the workingman should do anything and ev- erything he can to better and amellorate his condi And I know of no better way for him to do it than by organization.
