ENTHUSIASTIC THOUSANDS WHOOP LUSTILY ~ - WHEN PARDEE VISITS SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY 1 e .= .3 TT ALFORD 15 CHOSEN BY GOMMITTEE FOR EQUALIZER FIGHT Democrats Nameé Him to Fill Vacancy on Ticket. ILLIAM. H. ALFORD, an Assistant District Attorney of this city and county, was yes- terday named as the Demo- cratic candidate for member of the State Board of Equalization for the First District. is selection was made by the committee - on vacancies, composed of John J. Greeley, Thomas W. Hickey, R. Vi Whiting, - Knox Maddox and W, M. Pratt, Mr. Alford fills the vacancy caused by the withdrawal of J. J. McDade, who was nominated by the First Equalization Dis- trict Conventioh. The selection of a sub- stitute devolved upon the committee on vacancies, which held a special meeting yesterday morning. There were several candidates for the position, but Mr. Al- ford was deemed the strongest. John J. Greeley, who is a friend and admirer of Alford, placed fhe latter in nomination. Chairman Caminetti of the Demdcratic campaign committee was.in a ‘wrathful mood yesterday. His condition of mind was due to the lack of judgment shown by the Frankiin K. Lane Laboring Man's Quartet in appearing before a Demo- cratic audience the night before in dress suits, and theif lack of taste in singing a swan song for Governor Gage. Cam- inetti could have forgiven the attire, but be cannot overlook the fact.that the singers were of their key politically. The quartet rendered one song during the meeting that made Caminetti swear under his fierce mustache. The singers had submitted their songs to him on the afternoon of the meeting, and he had blue-penciled 'all references to the Repub- lican candidate that were of a personal nature. Having fulfilled his duty 'Cam- inetti felt assured the quartet would do nothing rash, but he was doomed to disappointment. Having rendered a soulful ballad about the certain defeat of the. Republican party at the coming eléction, the quartet retired to the wings to prepare for its next essay. When the moment arrived they sallied forth in their dress.suits and sang sweetly about Governor Gage. It was to the tune of “Dolly Grey,”-and senti- mentally bade good-by to Henry T. Gage and George C. Pardee. The song- was an open criticism of the present Gover- nor's administration, and as this is the very thing the Democrats have tried to avoid, Caminetti waxed furious, ‘When the quartet retired to the wings, pleased with its efforts, Caminett!i sald things that were rot down on the programme. All day yesterday friends of the chair- man of the campaign committee set him on edge by singing ‘“‘Good-by, Henry, you must leave us.” R GEARY PRAISES LANE. Kings County Democrats Open Their Campaign at Hanford. HANFORD, Oct. 2—The Democrats of Kings County opened the campaign in Hanford to-night by a large meeting at the opera-house. Ex-Congressman Geary was the principal speaker of the evening and his eulogy of Franklin K. Lane was well received. He said that Lane was the choice of the laboring men for Gov- ernor, as he had formed his friendship for them in the past, and if elected Governor Lane would give the people an adminis- tration they would be proud of. Prior to the speaking there was a torchlight pro- cession. i B Nominations in San Mateo.

J can Republican Club at their meet- ing in B’'nai B'rith Hall. The Con- gressman from the Fourth was invited by the club to appear before it and ex- press his views on the issues of the cam- paign. From the time he entered the hall until his departure he was cheered by the essembled voters. The meeting was an enthusiastic one. Refreshments were served and the members listened to speeches from Judges Hunt, Hebbard and Cook, Colonel Eddy, Captain McMartin and others. There was a large attendance and a great deal of enthusiasm prevailed. Judge Hunt was the first speaker intro- duced to the voters by N. Valianos, presi-. dent of the organization. The Judge en- deared himself to the Greeks by. telling them that he was, like them, a fisherman. He told of his efforts to catch rock cod!| and surprised his auditors with his knowledge of the best things in bait'and the quickest way to land the finny tribe. Judge Hunt said he had robbed King George of about fifty subjects, having made citizens out of them. He said he be- lieved every Greek he naturalized would make a good citizen of the United States. The Judge avoided talking about himself or office. He simply spoke in a pleasing vein and evidently infpressed his auditors, as they cheered him when he finished. * Colonel Eddy pleased his audience by paying a tribute to the Greek orators and chieftains. He said the present géneration all over the civilized world took the great Greek statesmen as their models. He told of the achievements of the Greeks and then spoke at length on the advisability of foreigners coming to this country ally- ing themselves with a good party. Colonel Eddy told how much the Republicans had done for the working classes. He appealed for their votes. In discussing the Republi- can ticket the speaker took occasion to say that there was not a candidate on the ticket whose record was not an open book and entitled to the respect of all men. Congressman Kahn delivered a strong argument in favor of the party and took occasion to tell what the members of the Californian delegation had done for the State at the last session of Congress. The following resolution was unani- mously adopted: We, the members of the Greck-American Re- publican Club, to-night assembled, hereby re- affirm our allegiance to the principles of the Republican party, which has, In the great prosperity and progress of this country; and_ further, ‘We emphatically indorse the standard bearer of the party, the Hon. George C, Pardee, and the whole Republican ticket and we shall exert our best efforts to aid a splendid victory in November next. Ashe Scores the Combines. LOS BANOS, Oct. 2—Gaston M. Ashe, Democratic nominee for Congress in the Sixth District, addressed an enthusiastic audience here this evening. His arraign- ment of the trusts was vigorous and con- stantly applauded.

One of the most enthusiastic political meetings ever held in this section of the State took place to-night. People from all over this section and many from ‘the’' northern part of Santa Barbara County turned out to give George C. ‘Pardee a mighty reception. They did it, too, and with a rush and a ‘whoop that knocked out all the old rec- ords-of enthusiasm hereabout. Thousands Joined in the ‘greeting. Dr. Pardee and D. E. McKinlay arrived on the afternoon train from the south and were at once taken in charge by a dele- gation of the Reépublican County Central Committee and escorted to their hotel. Frank Matteson, candidate for the Stats Board of Egualization in tne Fourth Dis- trict, accomvanied them. After a short rest, the gentlemen were busy greeting old acquaintances and mak- ing new ones and in this manner their time was fully occupied until a late din- ner hour. Dr. Pardee made a most favor- able impression on those that he met and he will leave here with hosts of newiy made friends and supporters. Extensive preparations were made by the county = central committee for the meeting to-night and their plans were all successfully carried out to make it one of ‘the largest ever held in the county. Arrangements had been made with the Pacific Coast Company for an excursion train from all points north of Santa Maria and with the Southern Pacific Com- pany from all points between San Miguel and Guadalupe. These trains brought in large crowds to swell the numbers al- ready here. On the arrival of the train from the south at about 7 o'clock this evening the Arroyo Grande, Nipomo and Santa Marna delegations, headed by the Arroyo Grande band and escorted by members of the locl club, marched uptown. At the cor- ner of Higuera and Nipomo streets they were joined by hundreds of others, all bearing torches, and with the music of three bands and amid the blazing of numerous bonfires the procession pro- ceeded to the Payilion, which was already packed with the numbers that had come to hear Dr. Pardee, The meeting was presided over by ex- Mayor Shipsey, who, after a short speech by Warren M. John, the Republican can- didate for the Assembly, introduced Rar- dee. He was greeted with great appladse and it was several minutes before quiet was restored and he could proceed with his speech. After Pardee’s speech D. E. McKinlay addressed the audience at length and his remarks were punctuated with the cheers of his listeners. Both Pardee and Mc- Kinlay had their audience with them from the start. Interspersed between the speeches the three sisters Cook, well- known vocalists of this city, entertained the audience with stirring campaign songs. e—— Archbishop Kane Is Failing. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 2.—Archbishop J. Kane, who has been in poor health for the past six months, has experienced a marked change for the worse in the past few days.

Gillette, candi- date for Congress in the First District, and he was recelved with great applause. Gillette spoke of the mining interests of his district and promised to do all in his power to advance them. His remarks on this subject met with the approval of the large audience.

WS OF PARDEE'S GROWING STRENGTH' to Indorse, Candidate for Governor. | President After a Sharp Fight. ) N important meeting of the Call- fornia Liquor Dealers’ Association | was held yesterday aftermoon at | B'nai B'rith Hall. After a close contest between E. L. Wagner and Theodore Lunstedt for president of | the organization the last named was | chosen, securing 60 votes to Wagner's 56. Charles McLain was elected vice presi- dent; William Clack, recording secretary; Frank P. McCann, financial secretary; Oscar Hocks, treasurer; John W. Shink- win, conductor, and Charles Kaufmann sergeant-at-arms. - Five directors at large were chosen: They are Fred N. Bent, James Cheatham, Gus Massey, John D. Schroeder and John P. Glynn.

HEARST IS NOMINATED FOR MEMBER 07 CONGRESS Receives Recognition in the District Dominated by the Notorious “Big Bill” Devery. NEW YORK, Oct. 3—W. R. Hearst, after being “mentioned” for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, is content to accept the nomination for Congress from the Eleventh District of New York. He was nominated to-day. This district embraces the famous Ninth Assembly District, dominated by the notorious ex-Chief of Police Willlam 8. Devery, allas “Blg Bill,” whose record was too unsavory sven for David B. Hill, at whose dictation Devery and his followers were yesterday bounced from the State Convention at Saratoga. Devery’s career as Chief of Police was one of the greatest scandals that ever disgraced New York City. Un- der his administration vice thrived as never before. Devery's administration flnally became so odious that even Croker weuld no longer support him and he was relleved from the office of chief by Mayor Van Wyck. He had some kind of pull on the fceman (Van Wyck), however, and man- aged to be retained as Deputy Chief of Police, which office he held until the elec- | tion of the reform administration ticket. Devery was two weeks ago elected the Tammany Hall leader from the Ninth District. He conducted a most pletur- esque campaign and spent money MNke water. In the convention that nominated Hearst to-day Devery took a conspicuous part and seconded Hearst’s nomination, which was then made unanimous. This nomina- tion is equivalent to an election, for the district is in the heart of the terderioin and is heavily Democratic. —_——— Egypt, Oct. 2.—There were 2004 fresh cases of cholera r in Egyp - day and 241 deaths fr;r’: that dl:en-set, o CAIRO, .
