LITTLEFIELD OF MAINE, WHO ADDRESSED REPUBLI- CANS IN'SACRAMENTO. ACRAMENTO, Oct. 9.—Congressman Charles E. Littlefield of Maine ad- dréssed an Immense audience at the old Pavilion to-night. He was es- corted to the hall by the uniformed Roosevelt Rough Riders and the Capital McKinley Club. i P, A. Webster, secretary of the Building Trades- Council, - presided at the meeting and the vice presidents who occupied seats on the platform included prominent Republicans from all parts of the county. Congressman Littiefield spoke at con- siderable length and awakened much en- thusiasm as he told of the achlevements of the Republican party. He said the Re- publicans of California should elect their entire State ticket. A United States Sen- ator is.to be chosen at the next session of the Legisiature and California, he sa:d, should return United States Senator George C. Perkins to his seat. .Congressman Littlefield said he would see a Republican. Governor than a Democratic Governor, for the decaslon may arise, and it Has recently in Michigan, when the Governor may be called upon to appolnt a United States Senator to fill a vacancy. He said if California or any other State -believes.in Democratic ideas it should elect a Democratic Gov- ernor.

Littlefield sald that” when it came:to a comparison with the Bemoecratic party, whether it be in .any omeé. of forty-five States or the great aggregation of those States, the Republ'can ‘party “can staud on its record for the proper administra‘ tion of duties of government. Hé pictured the hard times which existed during the Cleveland administration.’; He: sald the handle the five hundred ‘mellion dollar expenditure occasioned by the war with Spain by increasing the national debt only elghty-three millions. He showed how vitally concerned Californla is in the coh- tinuance of the tariff, and said that in sentiment on this point the entire State. including the Democratic party, s in ac. cord with the Republican policy of pro- tection. He quoted W. E. Smythe, a Dem- ocratic candidate for Congress, as saying that he favored a protective tariff on the products of the California orchards. Elsewhere, sald Littlefield, Smythe's doctrine is denounced by Democrats as a rob. He declared that it remained for a Republican President, Roosevelt, to en- deavor to settle a strike in which the interests of so many American people are concerned. H Littlefield and his wife were given a reception at the Golden Eagle Hotel this afternoon by the Chamber of Commerce and the ladies of Sacramento. — Madera Citizens Hear Ashe.

'He made a feww opening re- marks, after which he introduced Con- gressman Loud, the gues: of the evening. Congressman Loud addressed the as- sembly as comrades. He then spoke of some of the dark dayvs of the rebellion and the trials of the boys. Speaking uf the “enemy,” the Democratic party, he said it’ had-drifted‘a long way from the ideas: of jts Pounders. “How,” he asked, ‘“‘can any volunteer soldler' Support' the party that has op- ‘posed everything the Republican party has undertaken to accomplish? After Dewey had won his splendid victory at Manila they proposed that we haul down the grand .old flag he had planted therec.

Dan- fels, Republican nominee for Congress in the Eighth District, ‘at Lempoc Hall to- night. He was accoripanied by State Sen- ator 8. C. Smith of Kern and Wilford M. Peck of Riverside. Captain ‘Daniels de- voted his speech to the discussion of na- tional issues and was frequently greeted with applause. He safd that there was not a product of the soil, vine or tree in this great district but what needs the fos- tering care of protection, be it beet sugar, beans or oil. He was followed by Senator Smpith and Mr. Peck, who were frequently interrupted by enthusiastic cheering. cstly believe if it had an opportunity to be en- forced without any-fear of its repeal it would have brousht to our peovle just as much pros- perity as the Dingley bill. But the election Of 1892 brought Grover Cleveland and a Demo- cratic House of Representatives and a Lemo- cratic Senate. Do you think there was a- dollar_ ifvested from that hour in any new industry? Oh, no. The purse strings were pulled tighter. ' No new industry was started. The result was that the McKinley bill had no opportunity to show what could be done in its wise provisions, and as soon as Grover Cleveland was inaugurated he imnicdiately started 2 tariff agitation and the Wilson bill was enacted and the McKiniey bill repealed. We have a great State here and we are all proud of it. We are all glad that we are Californians. Our Heart beats with delight Whenever we think of the gloriva of our State, our. wealth, our Lewulation, our natural a vantages, our mineral yvescurces, the products of our farm and fleld. We are a'l uroud of cur State, and yet, my friends, it is a sorry this great government of ours mot a single man from " the State of California is in an executive department of . this' Govern- ment. Take all the Cabinet positicns. - Not one {rom California, Take the Assistant Secre- Nct one from California. Take the tarles. chiefs of bureaus. Not one from California. Why? Our people are have not learned the I States know only too well. ~We keep changing our Kevresentatives in Congress, and as soon as 2 man gets a little Influence to do some- thing for his State and people unfortunately mary of our cltizens think they ought to have @ change, and that militates against the power of the btate. The Eastern States have learned this lesson.. If you have a Congressional dele- gation at Washington doing its duty you should send that delegation back, as it wall obtain more fnfluence and do more for the State. We have splendid men in California. We have citizens who could grace any posi- tlon within the gift of the Government, and if the seovle of the State will remain true to the State and its welfare it will be a matter of a few vears when California will take that po- sition in the counclis of the natlon to which her wealth and opportunitics entitle her. (Ap- plause.) i And you, my young friends, can add ma- terially In bringing apout that condition. Yor love the State. Therefore see that no mistakes are-made at this eisction. VIEWS OF LABORER. ‘We have heard a great deal within the last few weeks of the opposition that is being en- gendered or that efforts are being made to engender against the party that is now in power. Well, as I sald at the very beginning, I have faith in the good, sound, ‘sober judg- ment of the people of this city and State. Uncle Abe Lincoin in his day and generation said? “It 16 o dangerous thipg to swap horses in the middle of the stream.” That saying is as appropriate to-day as it was at the time that Uncle Abe Lincoin said 1t. We are prot of affairs in €an Francisco to-day as compared to the conditions that, prevailed here five years ago, and T marvel to think that the people can'be so forgettul of those conditions, and we are again hearing the voices raised in: oppo- sition to that party which has done so much for the people of the Pacific Coast, I am optimistic. 1 belleve that the people will not be led from their path. I believe at the coming election the people wiil ilww,'(he" devotion to the principles of the Republican party and will .elect our ticket by am over. Whelming majority. (Applause.) 1 want to say a few words in to our position in national matters. Let me go back a few vears. You remember how in 1852, at a time In this country’s history when the shops were all busy, when the men were employed at fair wages, When the fires were briskly burn. ing'in the furnaces, When the wheels were ro- volving—the people of .this country were told it_ would be a good thing to have a ol 3 d I have heard: in the last few weeks f statement made that that change came when the McKinley bill was in force that we ex. perienced the hardest times then.

In his address to the club Mr. Kahn said: 1 have had occasion since I saw you last to visit quite a number of Republican clubs, and 1 want to say that same enthuslasny that marks_your meetings {s apparent in them ail. The Republicans of San Francisco are i earnest. They realize that upon the success of this election depends the prosperity not only of Calffornia but of the entire United States. They realize that we have a condition in this country which has never been equaled in its history. Every man who wants to wark can find employment at better wages than he could e you, my friends, In common with the laboring ciasses of this entire country, feel that we want the condition of prosperity that is with us to-day to continue many years.

The nominees—for Chief Justice of the Su- preme Court, W. H. Beatty, and for Associate Justices, F. M. Angellotti and Lucien Shaw—are men of the highest | characters. Lawyers know that the nomi- nees are learned in the law. Morebver it Is known throughout the State that Beat- ty. Angellotti and Shaw are high class men of Strict. integrity. The opportunity to support men of such merit is not pre- sented to the voter every election. Conventions cccasionally commit blunders and make weak nominations for the Su- at | preme Court. The Republican delegates at Sacramento made no mistake when they indorsed Chief Justice Beatty for another term on the bench of ;the high court. No mistake was made when the learned and fair minded Judge Angellotti of Marin was nominated. - Seldom has better judgment been displayed by a con- vention than that shown in the nomina- lflon of Judge Lucien Shaw of Los Ange- es. The Democratic State Convention did not place judicia! nominees in the fleld in expectation of their election, but nomi- nated candidates merely for the purpose Of vreserving the spint of.the-party or- ganization; because Democraty.as well as Republicans recognize the superfor ‘work of Beatty, Angellotti and Shaw. It is probable that the largest vote aver-cast for. a eandidate in California wilhbe ac- corded to Justice Beatty in the aldetion of November 4 next, .

During the course of the .parade the principal thoroughtare of San Rafael was ablaze with red light and the fireworks display was particularly ef- fective.
