He stated that decisions of ‘Judge Angellotti were quently quoted by other Superior Judges throughout the State, and that he was frequently called upon by Judges in other counties in-the State to try im- pertant cases, when they had to make an exchange. Mr. Tauszky called attention | the fact that’the large number of law- vers present belonging to both parties at- lested the popularity with the bar in gen- eral that Judge Angellotti enjoyed. W m M, Abbott, Deputy Attorney 1; Thomas E. Havens and others e chairman appointed a general co wttee, consisting of ex-Judge Charles W lack and Edmund Tauszky, giving them power to appoint sub-committees to make an active canvass throughout the State | upon behalf of Judge Angellottl The meeting then adjourned to convene | again on Wednesday next at 4 o'clock, | when reports of committees will be -pr sented and other steps will be taken .to- ward making his election sure.

T SoNT BRUSIZ— HEAD OF THE RE PUBLICAN TICKET ADDS TO HIS ARMY OF SUPPORTERS Great Pavilion in City of Merced Is Packed to Overflowing. Special Dispatch to The Call. ERCED, Oct. 18.—The reception given to Dr. George C. Pardee and the speakers who accompanied him was hearty and was marked by democratic simplicity. Arriving from Madera at 5 o'clock this afternoon, they were greeted by an assemblage that | made an animated scene on the spacious ounds about the Southern Pacific Rail- d station. A committee of ladies was idance to receive Mrs. Pardee and v her to the residence of Dr. and wife, where a reception ntly 1d and where Dr. nd Mrs. Pardee spent the night. The Republican candidate for Governor, deeiring to meet personally the people subsequ | gathered to greet him, spent a half-hour | in sheking hands and talking with the people, his hearty manner and everyday ys making a very favorable impres- sion. There were a large number of boys and girls in the crowd, and they and the dcetor speedily became good friends. The nominee for Governor and the other gen- tlemen of the party were taken in a car- ge to the Central Hotel. At 8 o'clock the largest assembly hall in | the city—the pavilion of the Agricultural Society—was filled to overflowing, many would-be auditors being unable to obtain positions in the spacious edifice. J. W. Knox, chairman of the County 'Central Committee, presided and introduced. Dr. W. H. Pardee of Dos Palos, Merced Coun- tv, as chairman. The Merced Band, a glee club and a soloist supplied musical entertainment at intervals. The Republican nominee for Governor delivered an address He said that he came before the people as a plain, every-day Californian. He desired to meet the people and have them see him, so that they might have a | fair chance to judge of his fitness to fill the position of Governor. He said that he regarded the interests of the working peo- ple as the interests of the State; if they prospered all prospered. They and all other citizens need the protection afforded by Republican policy. If the Democrats prevalled in this election it would, in ef- fect, mean that California did not desire protection for her great horticultural and viticultural and other interests; for the manufacturing industries that are des- tined to become of vast magnitude and supply the markets of the Orient. It is important for Californians to vote the Republican ticket, which ‘represented progress and prosperity, while the Demo- cratic ticket and the Democratic national party represented the “hard times” that prevailed during the Cleveland adminis- tration. Pardee declared that he had made two pledges—to stand for protection and to be the best Governor that he could be, and these were his only pledges. He him- self would be Governor if elected, and he knew he was going to be elected. Frank Mattison of Santa Cruz, Repub- lican nominee for member of the State Board of Equalization, made a five-min- ute talk which was enthusiastically re- ceived. ¥Frank H. Short of Fresno delivered an address in which he dwelt largely upen the advantages enjoyed by California in- dustries by reason of the existing tariffs, which would be jeopardized by Demo- cratic success, —p MADERANS HEAR PARDEE. MADERA, Oct. 18—Many representa- V. H. Metcalf, Crockett; E. F. Loud and D. B. McKinlay, Los Gatos; J. C. Needham, Dox P: M. J." Daniels and & City; Attorn Corona; 4. W, Ky F,'J. M lasting forty-five | jtive 'Republicans assembled at the rail- | way station this morning to greet Dr. | Georse C. Pardee;, who camé up from the | south to speak for the first time to an | audience of Maderans. The Madera band | played an inspiring air as the train pulled |in and Dr. Pardee, accompanied by his wife and F. H. Short of Fresno, déscended from the platform. Pardee was warmly weleomed and the party was conducted to the Yosemite Hotel. Later, in company with J. G. Roberts. chairman of the county central committee, the visitors went to the Sugar Pine: Box Factory, where Dr. Pardee addressed 200 working- men. His remarks were loudly ap- plauded. In the afternoon Dr. Pardee addressed an audience from a platform erected on Yosemite avenue. The national colors e draped about the speakers’ stand, on which F. /. Short, Frank Mattison and J. G. Roberts occupled seats with the coming Governor. After: a quickstep by the band Roberts introduced Dr. Pardee, | who was received with an enthusiastic | outbreak. | Pardee calied attention to the fact that the chairman had apologized for the small number of residents who would appear {on the streets to listen to the speaking, as they were all at work at this busy time of the yvear. Pardee said he was glad of it, for he was pleased to know that there was plgnty of work to do. It was different =ix or eight years ago. Then there would have been no difficulty in get- ting a big assemblage, for then everybody was out of work. Jndustry was paralyzed and the men were idle. To-day, he said, | every one was busy and had no time to attend politcial meetings in the daytime. The speaker then referred to the early '%0's, when Coxey's armies were marching over the land and souphouses were estab- lished everywhere. Democratic control of the Government had paralyzed the indus- tries of the land, the factories were idle and many laborers were on the point of starvation. Under the changed condition brought about by the Republican adminis- tration the country had prospered, the souphouses were abolished and from one end of the State to the other the people were happy and prosperous. In all parts of the State where the speaker had' been the cry was for more: tollers, and in San Diego the Républican committee searched the town to find a carperter to build a speakers’ stand but in vain, for they could find none idle. Finally they had to ask the proprietor of a mill to lay off two men - so thg%_dthe stand could be built. Pardee tol his hearers that if they wanted to return to: the conditions that prevailed under Democratic rule they should vote for the Democratic State ticket, but if they wished a continuance of prosperity they must vote for the Re- publican Sate nominees. If the Demo- cratic State officers were elected it would be noticed to the people of the East that ‘we were tired of prosperity and Eastern- ers probably would vote for a Democratic administration and the “hard times” that prevailed from 1892 to 18% would return. Dr. Pardee referred to his opponent, Lane, as a pleasant gentleman, whom he had knowy for thirty years and for whom he had the greatest respect. He reminded his hearers that the campalign rested not on the personality of the candidates, but upon the principles which they . repre- sented. Frank H. Short and Frank Mattison made short addresses. e Want Place on Ticket. Attorneys for the Carl Browne United Labor party nominee for Governor filed a petition for a rehearing at the Supreme Court yesterday, presenting new reasons why its candidates ghould have a place on the official ticket. Another petition hay- ing practically the same efféct will, by | special arrangement, be filed to-day. il 44 UM b FRANE T Co0MBS3 . i i 5 & REPUBLICAN LEADERS WHO ADDRESSED CAMPAIGN RAL- LIES YESTERDAY. LOS ANGELES HAS PERKINS FOR A GUEST Southrons Give the Senator a- Warm ‘Welcome. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. 08 ANGELES, Oct. 18.—United States Senator George C. Perkins was the guest of Los Angeles Republicans to-day, and right heartily did They welcome him. He arrived this morning, and duripg the afternoon was tendered a public reception in the Hol- lenbeck Hotel, which was attended by hundreds, representing all political par- ties. After this reception he was closeted for a time with some of the party leaders in this end of the State discussing £he political outlook. To-night he addressed 2 mass-meeting in Hazard's Pavilion, The | attendance was not large, but what it lacked in size was made up in enthu- slasm. Hon. J. W. McKinley presided. In his speech Senator Perkins paid more at- tention to national issues than to local affairs. He had a word to say for the entire State ticket and to Dr. Pardee he paid a glowing tribute, predicting: that he would.be elected by a majority greater than had ever been giveu to any candi- date for Governor in this State. He made an especial appeal for loyal support for the nominees for the Supreme bench, and taking up each candidate separately told why he should be supported. At the conclusion of the meeting a re- ception was tendered to Senator Perkins in the Union League. This was attended by hundreds of Republicans and short addresses were delivered by several well- known speakers. COOMBS IN MARYSVILLE. -MARYSVILLE, Oct.' 18.—The only po- litical meeting of the week was held this evening under the auspices of the Yuba and, Sutter Republican Club in the Marys- ville Theater. Hon. Frank L. Coombs, ncminee for member of Congress in the Second District, was the orator of the evening and was greeted by a large enthusiastic audience. Coomps arrived in Marysville this morning and spent the day among his old friends. He was heartily welcomed and was assured of a large vote from this section of his ais- trict. ” His speech in the theater was largely along the lines of national issuds and was listened to with rapt attention, being frequently applauded. ' The meet- ing 'was‘one of the largest of the present campaign. $ i e -the W7\ (Gs, N - ’r"_‘()fifvflsffl LITTLEFIELD TALKS GATHERING IN SAN LUIS OBISPO Residents Journey F County to Hear the Statesman, Special Dispatch to The Call. § p g AN LUIS OBISPO, Oct. 18.—Con- gressman Charles E. Littlefield’s reputation as a great orator had preceded him to San Luis Obispo and throughout the day residents from all parts of the county came pour- ing into town, awaiting the coming even- ink, when the gifted son of Maine would address them. The large auditorium of the Pavilion was filled to its capacity by the crowd that had gathered. Littlefleld spoke for about two hours, and: at all times held the closest attention of one of the largest audiences ever gathered in this city. His address was masterful and his logic unanswerable. His appearance on the stage was the signal for an ova- tion and at the close of his speech the applause was deafening. Thomas A. Norton presided over the meeting and a large number of promi- nent gentlemen from various parts of the county occupied seats on the stage as vice presidents. TALKS OF THE TARIFF. Littlefleld devoted much attention to the tariff. In speaking of the necessity of electing a full Republican delegation to Congress, he said the Republican party preached the gospel of protectior throughout the length and breadth of the land. No Democratic candidate for Con- gress -in - California dared stand on the Democratic platform and advocate free trade. In Maine, where he had spent five weeks in campaigning -previous to his coming to California, the Democratic party -had free trade for its slogan, but he found a peculiar condition here, as ev- ery Democratic Congressional nominee was for a high protective tariff for Cal- ifornia products, notwithstanding the plank in the Democratic State platform. At Salinas, where he spoke last night, Littlefleld visited the largest beet sugar factory in the world. Said he: 1t it were not for the protective tariff tae management “of this factory could not pay labor $2 per day and compete with European labor at 40 cents per day. Suppose it werc possible 'that California should return eight Demoeratic Congressmen, and these eight Con- gressmen should give the Democrats a majority | in Congress, the Californja delegation, no mat- fer how much it wished for protection for Cali- forna products, could not formulate the policy of the party at large, and every California in- dustry- would suffer. The argument that a vote for a Democratic. Congressman could da no_harm js absurd. Bach. ope of the forty-five States of the Unilon is entitled to have its interests protected, and. no State should be protected at the ex- of .the others. Notwithstanding the Democratic platform in one plank advocates free trade, it condemns the Republican party in another plank for a proposed reduction in {ff on sugar by the medium of reciprocity treaties. Littlefield showed how a protective tariff was a vital necessity to the products of the farm and how the prosperity of all business men was dependent upon. the prosperity of the farmer. Removal of the tariff would be a death blow to the farmer. SPEAKS KINDLY OF LANE. He' paid a tribute to Lane, whom he characterized as an educated and cultured gentleman and one of much intellectuality and ‘force of character; a man whom it would be safe to elect as Governor but for the:fact that he was a Democrat. 'As Governor Lane might have an op- portunity of appointing a United. States Senator. A United States Senator might do much harm -in upsetting the tariff laws now In force. Free trade had been tried, said Little- fleld, but had never worked .well—it had always worked badly.. From Maine to California no one had. ever shown that the tariff and the trusts were in any way connected. 1y articles not protected were handled by trusts. Free trade - land was honeycombed with trusts. Trusts existed 2000 years ago and haqu- TO IMMENSE rom All Parts of the ways existed wherever there was busi- ness. The tariff was no more an advaf- tage to the trusts than to the individual competitor. Trusts existed through com- bination of capital, enabling them to buy in large quantities cheaply, and by ship- pihg in large quantities to get rebates in freights. Were the tariff removed instead of the article being made by American labor it would be made abroad by a for- eign trust. 4 GILLETTE'S PLAIN TRUTHS. Logic That Is Winning Votes for the Humboldt Leader. CORNING, Oct. 18.—The Republicans held a big meeting in Corning to-night. The Red Bluff band was present and many prominent citizens of that place came with it. Red lights were burned sné cannon fired.” Senator Maggard presided at the meet- ing and introduced Judge Soward, nom- inee for the Assembly in the Fifth Dis- trict, and J. N. Gillette, nominee for Con- gress in the First District. Soward spoke of she Philippine Islands and the great commercial advantages that would acerue to this country by their retention. Sena- tor Gillette spoke of the resources of the First Congressional District and of the great prosperity that would be enjoyed by the people when these resources were de- veloped. Gillette referred to the claims being made by Ford, his opponent, that the lat- ter was the candidate of the miners. He asked when —any convention of miners ever passed any resolution making Ford their candidate. He sald that a nominee for Congress should be minaful of all of the interests of his district, and should remember that lumber men, agricultur- ists; horticulturists, cattle growers and wool men had interests which needed pro- tection under the laws, as well as the mining interests, and that he stood ready and pledged to support them all. He was not singling out any particular industry and asking the people to support him on that issue alone, as Ford was deing. Gillette also spoke of our present pros- | perity and showed that it was due to the protective policy of the Republican party | and its sound financial laws and he urged all persons, Independent of party, who de- sired good times to continue to stand with the party that had proved itself able to meet and settle all great national ques- tions. He urged that the Republican party always had been the friend of la- for and pointed to the settlement of the recent coal strike by Roosevelt, a Re- publican President. 2 Gillette’'s speech was frequently inter- rupted with cheers, and when he referred to the action of President Roosevelt on the coal strike the applause was deafen- ing. PSR PETALUMA’S BEST MEETING. Rousing Republican Rally in the Beautiful Sonoma Town. PETALUMA, Oct. 18.—By far the most enthusiastic meeting of the campaign was held in this city to-night, when Hon. T. B. Hutchinson of Napa and the Repub- llcan county candidates addressed hun- éreds of citizens. Had Turner Hall besn feur times its size it could not have ac- commodated all who sought admission. J. E. Olmstead, editor of the Argus, acted as chalrman. Hutchinson’s address was on varied lines, touching upon the several campalgn issues. He spoke elo- guently and forcibly and was frequently interrupted by applause, which was diffi- cult to stop. Before the meeting bon- fires_blazed on the corners, rockets and 1ed fire were set off, and the played its liveliest airs. People came from points miles distant. The Santa Rosa Glee Club rendered several selections during the . ND ALL SAN LUIS: DBISPD COUNTY TURNS OUT TO HEAR LITTLEFIELD SPEAK T GIIIETI— BRUSIE GIVES SOUND ADVICE - TO WORKMEN Urges Them to Keep Their Unions Out of Politics. Special Dispatch to The Call. INOLE, Oct. 13.—Hon. Judson Brusie addressed a large Republican gather- ing here to-night, delivering a speech that was eloquent, witty and replets with telling points. The meeting was en- thusiastic throughout. Brusie made a hit at the commencement of his speéch when hé said: Ordinarily in the affairs of men we do not have to advise against the indefensible, sense- less act of deliberate self-destruction; yet in politics it is véry often necessary by reasom of the versistent counsel to the contrary to Sug- gest the impropriety, at least, of suicide. Ordinarily in the affairs of men we are mot called upon to give warning against the pur- sult of & course which having been pursued be fore Has brought disaster; yet in Dolitics very often find it mecessary to recall such ex- perfences by reason of the repeated attemvts on the part of Democratic spelibinders to bel- ster up the cause of Democracy by Eelding out extravagant and rosy-hued promises of a future which are absolutely without “hope of fulfiliment, if we can judge that party by its record In the past Ordinarily in the affairs of humanity men are guidéd in whatever path of life they may be traveling by the lamp of experience; in politics we very often behold the sad spectac! of men extinguishing that flame and plunging into the imvenetrable darkness of a future, which is rendered still more uncertain by the blindfold of prejudice, passion and partisan idolatry. His audience being made up for the most part of laboring men, the speaker addressed his remarks to them particu- larly, urging them to keep their unions out of politics. He said: There is only one purpose to be subserved In trades union, as their sole object, desire and foundation is to obtain for their members greatest possible pay for the least expendi- ture of muscle. Now, take no offense at that declaration, for it applies equally to the other side. Capital also is trying to secure the sreatest possible service for the least expendi- ture of money. And let me say to you right here, that just as long as this world will last this condition will continue. Candidates may promise, political parties may declare, states- men may take a stand one way or the other, but.no law on the face of this earth can ever be framed and passed which will serve in_the slightest degree to a _positive, certain and final adjustment of this great contest which has for cénturies been wazng and which for centuries to come will be waged by these two great op- posing forces of civilization—the conflict De- tween capital and labor. As a labor organization you have ‘but one object in view, you have but one question to discuss—that of getting the most you can for your services. The very moment you enter int> an endeavor to deal with and handle mat- ters Dolitical there are a thousand diversions which must necessarily arise. and each diver- sion will bring aBout its disagreements and misunderstandinzs. Here is a laboring man who two years ago voted for Willlam McKinley. If he belongs to the Lathers’ Union he is to-day receiving $6 50 as a minimum wage per diem, with a premium given by those who want to employ f he is a shingler, a bricklayer, a plas- terer or a carpenter he finds the same condi~ tion prevailing. When'he goes home at the end of the week he finds that he carries there to pour into the lap of his wife three times as much as he was able to giva her between '93 and '97, the last experience this country had with a Democratic administration. Net- withstanding that fact, when he enters his union on Monday night the badge of a Demo- cratic nominee for Congress is pinned upon his coat, a batch of cards announcing the candi- dacy of a Democratic nominee for Congress is thrust within his hand and he is told that as a unjon man he must stand by the Unfon Labor party and vote for an individual who stands on the same olatform that Grover Cleveland stood upon, and who stands committed to every policy that was advanced by Grover Cleveland, the consequences of which are too weil known to every man In this country to require re- peating. Now, I maintain that when this is done, there will arise dissatisfaction and protest and finaily the man thus coerced must deck as between his party and his union affiliations. When that timeé comes he will stand by bis convictions as an American citizen, becauss hat is a relation the responsibilities of which ve always been met by the people of our country, and which has always constituted our safety and our security. Thercfore, I say to you, my friends, do not mix politics with your unions. If you are a t, and conscientiously ‘believe in the doctrines of Demoeracy, stand for what you be- Heve in. but do not carry the discussions lead- ing up to your belief into the councils of your union: you have enough to attend to there. without _infecting matters that will only tend to derupt your order. If you are a Republican and believe that the policies of that party havs given to California what is promised to her to- day, hold to that belief; but do not attempt to mingle if up with discussions pertaining to your fare as a union man, because, as such, you must be non-partisan, however ardent a Democrat or a Republican you may be beyond the threshold of your labor councils. Organize Koch Club. Ardent supporters of John W. Koch, Republican nominee for Justice of the Peace, met last night and organized a club to promote his suceess in the com- ing election. The club will work actively in the Twenty-ninth a eth dis- triets. . Willlam H. McC: elect ed gresidents i
