The pavilion to-night inclosed a brilliant spectacle. Myriads of electric lights lent their radiance and the throng found much to delight it in the exhibits.

LITTLEFIELD of Maine, one of the Republican leaders of the House, an orator of marked abil- ity and an avowed candidate for the Speakership of the House to succeed Speaker Henderson, arrived in Oakland last night. Congressman Littlefleld comes to California to make a campalgn tour of the State in the interests of the Republi- can ticket. His presence here is due to an invitation from Congressman Victor H. Metcalf, a member of the executive | committee of the Republican National Congressional Committee. Because of Representative Metcalf's ill- ness he was unable to meet the distin- guished visitor, but his place was taken by a number of prominent Alameda County Republicans, who greeted Con- gressman Littlefield on his arrival at the Sixteenth-street station, Oakland, at 7:30 o'clock. The Maine Representative was accompanied by his wife and Mrs. Abbie 8. Walker, a sister-in-law. In the party to welcome them were Thomas T. Dargle, Postmaster of Oakland; George W. Reed; George S. Plerce, secretary of the Ala- meda Republican County Central Com- mittee; Dr. C. L. Tisdale of Alameda, Jo- seph R. Knowland of Alameda; Everett Brown, chairman of the Republican City Central Committee, and Richard B. Ayer, a nephew of Congressman Littlefield. Mr. Dargie, Mr. Reed and Mr. Ayer escorted the visitors to the residence of Mrs. Hat- tie G. Ayer, 1018 Sixth avenue, which will be their headquarters during their stay in California. ITINERARY NOT PREPARED. Congressman Littlefleld’s itinerary for the campaign has not been fully mapped out. He will make two speeches in the Third Congressional District, one in Oak- land and one in Vallejo, during his stay in California. There will be a conference to-day with the Congressional and State committees to arrange dates and other meeting places. it is of special interest to California that Congressman Littlefleld is here, be- cause he expresses and holds to the views of President Roosevelt on the question of trusts and tariff, and he is credited with having close relations with the chief executive in the matter of trust legisla- tion. The Congressman is large of frame, with a magnificent voice, and an Incisive clear-cut manner of speech. He was elected this month for the third time to represent the Second Congressional Dis- trict of Maine, and he will have com- pleted his second term at the close of the winter sitting of Congress. “Yes, I am a candidate to succeed Speaker Henderson at the Fifly-cighth— the next session of Congress,” sald Mr, {Lattlefield at the Ayer residcnce. ‘“‘My | candidacy has been made public, but I | have not consulted with any of the Re- | publican leaders about it as yet. In fact, I have seen none of them since Speaker Ienderson’s withdrawal was announced. Since the election in Maine I have been traveling, making speeches on my way to California in Massachusetts, Pennsyl- venia and Iowa.” | Continuing Congressman Littlefleld sald: But about that Speakership. Before any Re- publican can be Speaker we'must have a Re- publican Congress, and 1 have come to Cali- fornia to help eend back a solid delegation of Republicans.

As to issues in the East, the trust question is occupying a great deal of attention. Now, I am a protectionist,” and I am further in full accord with the views of President Roosevelt as recently declared on the question of trusts. 1 do not believe that the trust and the tariff are related. The former does not necessarily involve the latter. I do not believe that the tariff has any necessary or logical connection with the trusts. 1 d lieve that the tariff is “‘the mother of trusts,” as our Demo- cratic friends put it. The way to reach the trusts is not by revision and disturbance of the tariff. I belleve that the trusts should be reached by direct Federal legislation. There is no doubt that it s the purpose of the Republic: rty to handle this trust ques- tion in a sound way. The Republican pariy w1l enact such reasonable and judiclous legls- lation, within constitutional tmitations, as ls necessary to control combinations, and to rem- edy the evils resulting from them. I belleve that Federal regulation and control and public- ity will accomplish the end—namely, correc- tion of the wrong in these aggregations, Why should the workingman support the Re- publican party?

GILROY, Sept. 29.—The new summer home of Mrs. Robert Louis Stevenson, in the heart of the redwood district, nine miles west of Gilroy, was christened on Saturday evening with a “house-warm- ing.” The guests, forty or more, were from San Francisco, Gllroy and the neighborhood of the summer home. As one approached this sequestered spot in the Santa Cruz Mountains, he was re- minded of some fairy-land scene. Hun- dreds of Japanese lanterns were strung about the grounds, beneath nature's can- opy of lofty redwoods and graceful ma- drones. The cottage is in the midst of a forest and is an adaptation of the old English lodge type. It has a wide veranda and the foundation is of stone. There are five living rooms on the ground floor and a spacious attic. The main living room is finished in oiled curly redwood and raft- ers. An immense fireplace, capable of holding a great log, .is a feature of this room. The windows have tiny panes and the ceilings are low. Mrs. Stevenson’s boudoir is a unique room, and a revelation to Americans. The walls are covered by a Samoan prepara- tion called “tapa,” which is a fibrous bark from the paper mulberry tree. It is prepared by the natives and stained with berries, giving it the appearance of raised-figure paper. The name of this comfortable retreat is from the Samoan, and means “Vale of the Singing Bird.” In the nativelanguage it is spelled “Vanumanutang.” It is an ideal spot for a lover of literature to study and dream, shut out from the busy world. Mrs. Stevenson is constantly sur- rounded by literary friends. Frank Nor- ris, author of “The Octopus,” “The Pit" and other works, has purchased the ad- Jjoining tract of land, on which is built a lob cabin. Here he will retire, and, sur- rcunded by nature, compose new work. The ‘house-warming” on Saturday evening was a brilliant success. Dancing was the chief amusement.

The recollections of 1893 and 1897 are too vivid to be forgotten. Contrast the differ- ence in conditions and you have all of the ar- gument that is necessary for any man of or- dinary intelligence. The genetal policy of the Republican party is to the end that all shall enjny the highest at- tainable wage and live as men should Iive in a country like ours, Back East the expansion issue is dead. That has been fought out and settled. The Demo- crats have Leen thoroughly beaten and the policy of the nation has been determined. The trust question is paramount there and I have no' doubt that California is as much interested in its soluticn as Is any other portion of the nation. T have come to California to assist, if I can, in the maintenance of the Republican par- ty. We want a solid Republican delegation returned again from this State. And I shall place myseif at the command of your State. As I said at the outset thers is no danger so long as Republicans wiii make the fight, Congressman Littlefleld’s home is at | Rockland, Mé. His majority for re-elec- tion was more than 5000, and he says tkat he has no complaint to make on that score. After to-day’s conference in this city speedy public announcement will be nade concerning the meeting places at which he will be heard. Congressman Julius Kahn went up the road to mect the visitors. The Littlefleld party decided to stay in Oakland with Mrs. Ayer, who is a relative by marriage of Mrs. Littlefield.

Tells What He Hopes to Ac- complish if Elected Governor. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. BAKERSFIELD, Sept. 20.—Franklin K. Lane, Democratic nominee for Governor, who arrived from his southern campaign- ing tour last night, arose early this morn- ing and, in company with the other Dem- ocratic candidates comprising his party, made a tour of the city and its environs. Two other State candidates joined the party here—Celonel Tim Spellacy, for Rallroad Commissioner, and E. C. Farns- worth, for Bupreme Court Justice. In carriages they were escorted to the vari- ous shops and made addresses to the men or met them personally and shook them by the hand. At 12:30 o'clock Lane and his escort reached Kern and met the workingmen on their return from luncheon, mostly the employes of the Southern Pacific Rall- road in the shops at that place. Lane was introduced by James Quinn, a toiler in the machine shops, as the next Governor of California. Lane said in part: You will notice in the columns of the Los Angeles Times, if you read that paper, that I am referred to as ‘‘the cheap Mr. Lane.”” The reason for such reference is found in the fact | that in Los Angeles and cther parts of the | State I have, at Lhe noon hour, when the men were at leisire, gone among them as 1 have come here to-day, to speak directly to them, as man to man. This is no new thing with me. I have followed this course in San Francisco in the past when I have been a candidate for office, and when 1 have gone back to these men in subsequent elections I have asked them if I have been remiss in-my officlal duties. In the last campaign in that city the door of every vnion was open to me, and I went and came freely as did the candidates of their party, nd it may interest you to kmow that I car- ried San Francisco by 11,000 majority. I am here to-day because I want to meet you and I want your support. I feel that it is the dignified thing to do to come here to meet you and to talk with you. The Democratic party has by the ticket nom- inated recognized all classes. We have ap- pealed to voters of this State by our ticket and by our platform_and we are going to carry California by a big majority. ‘W. E. Smythe followed Lane and pre- dicted the success of the party “because this party stands upon a -constructive platform, the carrying out of which means the development of the State.” He de- nounced the scripper bill and pledged himself if elected to do his utmost to reclaim the arid lands of the West. MASS MEETING AT NIGHT. This evening, while Lane and the other candidates were at dinner, a band was stationed in the Southern Hotel office and its music attracted quite a crowd, which formed in a procession and accompanied Lane to Armory Hall, a few blocks dis- tant, fireworks lighting the way. The hall was packed when Chairman Alfred Harrell, editor of the Californian, called the meeting to order and introduced the - first speaker, Alexander J. Ros- borough, who was followed by James Hawley of Los Angeles, candidate for the Board of Equalization. Samuel Butler, president of the Grass Valley Miners' Union, followed with an ‘appeal to work- ingmen. Then a surprise was sprung on the au- dience by the introduction of Daniel Dan- fels, a machinist of Kern, who has quite a local reputation as a speaker on.labor questions. It had not been known that Danfels would come out for Lane, and as he has considerable influence with the rallroad employes his appearance created a mild sensation. Colonel Tim Spellacy, being a resident of Bakersfleld, aroused much enthusiasm ‘when he arose to speak. Sald he: There is one thing I desire to say to you, my friends and neighbors: Every one in Kern County will vote for me. I want Frank Lane to get as many votes in Kern as I do, which of course means a unanimous poll, regardless of party. Chairman Harrell then said: Mr. Rosborough has been anmounced as the bachelor of the campaign. I now take pleas- ure in presenting a married man, 34 years of age, who is the father of seven children—Isi- dore. Dockweller, candidate for Lieutenant Governor. Dockweller said others would discuss the issues of the campaign and he con- fined himself to referring in compliment- ary terms to the other candidates on the ticket. LANE LAUDS KERN COUNTY. Lane was next introduced and for more than half an hour discussed the labor and other questions and Interspersed his | speech with anecdotes. He said he was much impressed with the words of the laboring men. Said he: Ycu bave in this county a large number of what are called the common people—the plain people wko would rather be right than any- thinz else. Kern in the first Democratic county we have visited on this trip, but It will not be alone thiz fall. If asked which county in our State we could best do without 1 might say San Francisco— that great and beautiful city. If that county was wiped out of existence money and enter- prise would build a duplicate on the opposite side of the bay, but If Kern County were wiped ont of existence man could not duplicate the work of the infinite God In his work of natzre. I might be asked why, if I like this valley #o well, I do not live here. Well, for one reason, I have promised to live in Sacramento for the next four years. The opposition say we are a party of nega- tion. - This campaign we have taken a great step forward. - We favor something: we pro- pose. something. You will find after listening to Mn Smythe that we propose and favor for one thing irrigation and water conservation. I want to be Governor to reform the manage- ment of our State institutions—hospitals, asy- lums and priscns. We want to save our boys who are placed in reformatory in- We want them to be beuerr‘on. not worte. We must change our normal schools of crime into normal schools of better living. 1 want to do for California what I can. To her I am devoted. W. E. Smythe concluded, discussing the scripper bill and irrigation. Lane will leave here !n the morning at 6 o'clock for Fresno. ROB A PEDDLER AND TIE HIM TO A TREE Two Highwaymen Then Coolly Enter a Town and Resist Capture by Police. SEATTLE, Sept..29.—Two men held up John Michael, a peddler, near Black Dia- mond, a smalk mining town about thirty miles from Seattle, early this afternoon and after threatening to kill their vietim rotbed him of $85 and tied him to a tree. He managed to loosen his bonds and noti- fied the authorities at Franklin. The robbers coolly. walked into the town and when accosted by the police showed fight. ‘They were overpowered. When taken to jail they admitted having robbed Michael and one of them expressed regret that they had not killed him. ‘The men answer the description of the iwo men who. robbed a Franklin saloon carly last spring and when followed shot and killed the bartender. When the min- ers, who compose. the larger portion of Franklin’s population, heard the news they started to organize a lynching bee. Sherift Cudihee of Seattle was notified and hastened to the scene with a large force of deputies, brought the men to this city and lodged them in the county jail. J. W.

Besides indcrsing Gage’s administration and approving the State ticket, the following strong Indorse- ment of Senator Perk'ns was adopted: We are especially pleesed with the efforts of our senlor United States Senator, rge C. Perkins, who has advocated and promoted the interests of cur mines and miners with marked | ability and success. Hie long experience and { recognized ability in the halls of the United States Senate have secured for him influential positions on committees, thus enabling him to advance our interests far more successfully than could any new man whom we might elect as his successor, however able the new incum- bent might be. Under the circumstances, the retirement of Hon. George the United States Senate would be little short of a calamity to our commercial and political interests. We, therefore, advocate his re-election, and hereby instruct the Republican nominee from this Assembly district to vote for Semator George C. Perkins for the office of United States Senator and to use all honorable means to promote his election. And, further, we respectfully request the State ‘Senator who represents this county at the next biennial session of the State Legle- lature to use his vote and influence to ald in the re-election of Senmator Perkins. ‘With exception of Assessor, a full coun~ ty ticket was named, as follows: Assemblyman, John Glasson of Grass Valley; Superior Jjudge, F.
