LANE, whom the Democrats hope to elect to the of- fice of Governor of this State, re- turned yesterday from.his speech- making tour of the State to; strengthen his political fences in this city. He appears to have become fatigued from the strgnuous life he has been lead- ing. He exPressed himself as being en- tirely satisfled with the receptions ac- corded him in all portiohs,of the State. It the programme outlined by Lane's managers is carried out he need expect little rest in this city. He had scarcely landed at the ferry when he was taken in tow by the campaign committee and conducted to the transport dock, where many laborers on the water front were | waiting to hear him. His address to the water front men ‘was made during the noon hour. During | the afternoon he was kept busy meeting his friends and assuring them that vic- tory was certain. Last night he delivered addresses at four meetings in as many different parts of the city. His first speech was at Maennerbund Hall, on Potrero avenue, near Twenty-fourth street. From there he went to the San Francisco Athletle Hall at Sixth and Ship- ley streets and thence to Occidental Hall at 246 Third street. The last meeting of the evening and probably the largest was at B'nal B'rith Hall on Eddy street. Lane did not reach this hall until after 11 o'clock, but the crowd waited for him and | gave him ay enthusiastic reception. Con- siderable enthusiasm was displayed at the other three meetings. In order to follow out his schedule the Democratic candidate was compelled to commence his speechmaking promptly at 8§ o'clock. At that hour he arrived at| Maennerbund Hall. J. J. Donovan acted as chairman of this meeting. When he presented Lane as the next Governor of California the crowd rose and cheered. Lane said that he was glad to be back to his own people once again. He said that the favorable sentiment manifested in all parts of the State indicated a sweeping victory, not only for the head of the Democratic_ticket, but for the whole ticket. He said in part: « 1 was perfectly willing to 50 out of the city and Jeave my campaign here in the hands of my friends and in the hands of those who have 50_often reposed their confidence in me. I re- turn to find that you have Leen making my fight your fight. "When we commenced our fight five or six Weeks ago it was scarcely be- lieved that we had any chance of success, but now we are certaln of winning. I have made my fight on broad Democratic ‘principles. I have not appealed to any class against any other class nor of any section ‘agafist an- otker. I have made it distinctively a fight for | the whole great State of California. The peo- | ple have responded gloriously. When I say to the working people that I am their friend ard that I respect them and their rights, they have confidence in me und know thét I am not | indulging In idle talk. I want to be Goy- ernor of this State that I may do something for it; that I may assist in the development of ite great resources; that I may aid In bring- ing more people to it and that I may assist in making ‘the people happler. I want to see the working people obtain shorter hours that they may have time to improve themselves and become broader and nobler citizens, When the Democratic candidate finished his speech and was about to leave the hal] he was again the recipient of the cheers of the people. The meeting was addressed after Lane took his departure by ex-Congressman Caminetti, William H. Alford, candidate for the State Board ot Equalization; Robert Richards, candi- date for Justice of the Peace, and Isadore B. Dockweiler of Los Angeles, the candi- date for Lieutenant Governor. Dock- weiler spoke at length and was well re- ceived. e AT OCCIDENTAL HALL. Democrats of Twenty-sighth District Hear Franklin K. Lane.
