'Standard Bearer Talks to Voters in Many Districts. WMRANKLIN K. LANE spent a busy day yesterday. He addressed vot- ers all over the city and when his | campaigning came to a close last night he was tired, but confident. The standard bearer of Democracy in this election and his lieutenants feel certain they will win on Tuesday next. They base their b#lief on the reception accorded Lane wherever he appears. At all the Lane meetings last night the small boy played a prominent part. He yelled him- self hoarse for the candidate and was re- warded with a little red button which was pinned on his coat. The small boy’s en- thusiasm had a bad effect at some meet- ings. The tired orators had to raise their voices to a higher pitch in order that they might be heard above the conversation and fun-making of the youngster. At Mowry Hall where Lane spoke there empty seats, but the meeting E red large for a district meet- ing. Many came out of curiosity and left the hall candidate of the Democratic party. Lane told the old story about his little boy, who said to him just before he left the Democratic convention at Sacramento, ‘Dad, get there!” and he has been trying to get there. Whether he will succeed, he said, will be proven on Tuesday next. Judge Alfred J, Fritz, Livingston Jenks and Judge Dunne also spoke. Judge Fritz made a manly speech. He called at- tention to certain criticisms made of his candidacy. He sald he was given the nomination without solicitation on his t, and being anxlous to rise higher, he w trying to elevate himself to the Su- perior bench. He painted to his record as a Police Judge as proof that he deserved further consideration at the hands of the people. ane addressed his neighbors who con- gregated in Steimke Hall. The Democratic office seeker varied very little in his speech. He threshed over old statements | and as u 1 ignored national issues. He told about the free market he going ablish on the water front, forgetting such a market was provided for by a Legislature at the suggestion of Governor Budd. Dockweiler, Caminetti, Alex Rosborough and others addressed | the assembled voters. | 10 o'clock Lane, somewhat fatigued, | arrived at Garibaldi Hall and addressed | | a crowd of boys and voters. He argued | | to e | th that he should be elected Governor this time, as a Republican was in the office during the past four years. He said that during the past thirty years the two par- ties had alternated, and this time the of- fice belonged to the Democrats. | ‘Willlam H. Langdon, candidate for Su- perintendent of Public Schools, was given a hearty greeting. Langdon spoke at | length on the needs of the public schools | and promised the voters of the district that if he was elected he would exercise | his best judgment. He was roundly | cheered. | | LANE AT THE MAIL DOCK. | Addresses a Gathering of Working- | men During Their Lunch Hour. | Franklin K. Lane addressed a large | gathering of workingmen at the Mail | dock shortly after the noon hour yester- | day. He was well received. The little | red button bearing his likeness was dis- tributed among voters and small boys | alike. Lane dellvered a short speech. He thanked the men for their support in the past and promised them that if elected to office he would be the friend of the un- jon orzanizations. He further stated that i elected the workingman would have no trouble seeing him. His door would al- v:ays be open to him and no man would be over him and dictate his policy. Lane told of the large vote he expected to re- celve from outside counties, and he ex pressed the belief that he would carry this city and county by a large majority. Isidore Dockweiler, candidate for Lieu- | tenant Governor; W. H. Alford,, candi- | date for the Board of Equalization, and Samuel Braunhart also delivered speeches. Lane addressed the men employed at the California Wige Association’s cooper- age shop at Fourth and Bryant streets afterward, and was cheered and given promise of support. til our Jamented President McKinley was elected. He was the forerunner of pros- per.ty. That is why the Greek-American voters of this city will stand by the Re- publican party.” Dr. Pardee was the principal speaker of the evening. When he ‘entered the hall | every voter in the large audience arose and joined in the cheering, which lasted for several minutes. Dr. Pardee said, in part: Ladies and Gentlemen and Fellow Citizens: I do not_know how to thank you for this ova- tion. I owe you gn apology for keeping you waiting, but when $ou have to begin at 8 o'clock end attend four meetings you can't always get around on time. I came here to say to you to-night that the State of Callfornia is going Republican by a big majority, and that means | the continuation of the prosperity of the State and the prosperity of the nation. You all re- member the hard times under the administra tion of Grover Cleveland and our good Demo- cratic friends. I know a lot of good Demo- crats. They are good people, but they have had dreame of prosperity. Before Cleveland's eiection what did the Democrats tell you about the good times that were coming? You all know what happened. You all remember the empty dinner pails and the empty cupboards at home. There were two men for every job, and now we have two jobs for every man. You all remember the souphouses and the poor unfortunates who had to fight to get work out on Balboa boulevard at a dollar a day and then sleep on the sands at Seventh and Mis- €lon streets, where the new Postoffice now stands. You all remember Coxey's army that marched from here to Washington, and when they got there a Démocratic President put signs out for them to keep off the White House grass? (Laughter and cheering.)

Needham was Commissioner, UNCLE SAM SELLS GOLD BRICES BY TONS Beneath stout bars guarding a wide; arched window In the United States assay office in Wall street thousands of dollars’ worth of little gold bricks, the honest and true kind, pass every day from Uncle Sam’s coffers to the nands of jewelers and bankers. And all that Uncle Sam charges for the exchange is 4 cents on $100 for the large bars and 5 cents on $100 for the small ones. For the week eénding July 28 the goid bars (they did not call them bricks in the assay office) exchanged for gold coin amounted to $190,780 17. This is a small figure compared with what the office has done on a busy day.

Davis of Oakland Speak Salinas to Immense Assemblage of Monterey County Residents. the next speaker. Needham assured his audience of the brilllant prospect of a Republican victory in all portions of the ccuntry. Dealing directly with the issues of the campaign, Needham said that he believed every ~Congressional nominee should place himself on record before the people on all live quéstions. He was in favor of a tariff for protection as opposed | to a tariff for revenue. .He showed that the protective tariff was a necessity to Callforhia farmers and fruit growers. By reason of the additional cost of trans- | portation the Western farmer was unable to compete with foreign producers unless safeguarded by protection. Needham scoffed at Democratic evasion in calling California exports “luxuries.” . He declared that Democratic principles ‘:md policies were, antagonistic to pros- | perity. Needham devoted considerable attention to the work of the past Congress. He | claimed the Isthmian Canal as a Republi- | can increase and spoke of the national irrigation bill, which would be of great | benefit to California. Needham went into the history of the trust question in Con- gress and explained the necessity of an GREAT DEMAND FOR S THE PISTACHIO NUT What with the popularity of green ice cream and confectionery, and the growth of immigration from Mediterranean coun- tries, there has been a steady increase in the consumption of pistachio .nuts. So extensiveshas been the change that many merchants have ylelded to the temptation of imitating the pleasant vegetable tissue. In flavor it is like a mild almond, and the chiet perceptible difference between the two lles' in the color. The unscrupulous dealer blanches his almonds, crushes them and colors them with chlorephyll or spin- ach green. The imitation is so close that anly experts can tell the difference be- tween the two. The Greeks:in New York see mto have been the first to discover this ingenious fruit, and seldom sell the was to be shipped to Europe, the assay office exchanged $8,000,000 into bars, The bars Uncle Sam dispenses are of two general sizes, the $5000 size for bank- ers and the $150 size for jewelers, the small size being about an inch and a quarter long, three-quarters wide and per- haps half an inch or tess in thickness. Very often they run up to $200 or even more in value. Their size adapts them to the size of the jeweler's crucible. As for the banker, he does not melt his gold; he contents himself with shipping it back and forth across the ovean. A remarkable feature of this exchange of legal tender for gold bars is that one cannot always get just the amount he wishes. If a jeweler or a banker wishes $10,000 in gold bullion, Uncle Sam gives him as near that amount as he possibly can. It may be $9970 50 or $10,060 30, be- cause the bars vary in size and welght, and practically all of them have odd cents in their value. Two bars the cashier handed out one day this week were stamped $531 70 and $123 10. In buying gold bars the purchaser first tells the cashier at the assay office how much he wishes; the cashier comes as near this amount as he can with the bars on hand, and then the purchaser goes next door, to the Sub-Treasury, where he deposits his legal tender, gold certificates, greenbacks or gold coin, for the amount designated by the assay office cashier as the nearest to the desired amount, receiving therefor a certificate which, upon presentation at the assay office, insures the delivery of the bars. But before they may be taken away the recipient must sign for them in the reg- ister which lies open beneath the bars of the wide-arched window.—New York Post. ———— Livingston Jenks deserves your vote for Superior Judge. Remember the name. * pistachio paste, which was once in vogue. They import and keep in stocks medium quantities of pistachio nuts, which are sald to be grown In Greece, the Greek archipelago and Asia Minor. These nuts are smaller.than the average and harder and dryer. The Armenians use a larger size, which is sald to come from thelr own country, Syria and Persia. To an Ameri- can palate the nuts are not very -agree- able. They are a trifie too hard and sug- gest biting on a piece of wood rather than any nutritious kernel. Both Greeks and Armenians employ them for a varfety of purposes. In near- ly all cases the nuts are hulled, scalded and skinned. The kernel Is then crushed dry or broken and softened by hot water. It may be boiled into a soft substance, a trifle. harder than a baked potato, or it may be roasted, although the operatior. gives it a burned and not altogether en- Jjoyable taste. - The Greeks utilize the nuts in many varleties of cake und con- fectionery, while the Armeniasn employ it in stuffing fowl, lamb, and in making pi- lau and other savory dishes. The pis- tachio nuts are not over-expensive, cost- ing about the same as the almonds. It is possible that we will have some of native growth ere long, as the experiment of raising them is now being tricd in South- ern California. ———— A First Actor—You don't find it easy to get -anything to do? ¥ Second Actor—No, indeed! easy!

He denied that the trust and tariff. questions were identical and that the tariff gave rise to trusts. Needham claimed that they were entirely independ- ent and had origin under different condi- tions. DAVIS DEALS IN FACTS. W. R. Davis of Oakland addressed the audience, - attacking the position of the Democratic party as being insincere. He traced its history since 1864 and claimed that it looked more to party expediency in its campaign‘than to principle. He cited the fact that the Democratic party, in its eagerness to capture political honors, had. with but two exceptions nominated its presidential candidates from the State of New York. Davis claimed that the Democratic party was without a fixed policy and had lost its identity. The speaker contrasted the conditions under Republican and Democratic admin- istrations, and closed with a strong state- ment of the attitude of the Republican State nominees and“of the necessity of supporting them. | THE EARTH’S CENTER ’ SAID TO BE SOLID The recent volcanic outbreaks in the Lesser Antllles have naturally aroused f much - popular and_scientific interest in these geological phenomena and have made a brief statement of current and ac- cepted-explanations of them a matter of interest. -All these manifestations of heat are derived from the great stores which exist in the interior of the earth. The consideration of them and of the known increase - of. temperature with depth led earliér geologists to belleve that the earth possessed a heated molten core and a cold thin exterior shell. But as fur- ther irvestigation developed correct con- ceptions of the’rigidity of the globe in resisting strains -produced by its rota- tlon and the attraction of other heavenly bodies for its mass, and as the elevating offect upon the fusing points of rocks of an increase of pressure:was.realized, it was seen that the earth is practically solid clear through, and that local reser- voirs of molten rocks beneath volcanic districts are alone admissible. That local reservoirs exist seems quite well . established, and that the rock is sufficiently flued to enable complex par- ent magmas to break -up into various differential products is the latest result of the investigation of eruptive areas.

Special Dispatch to The Call. OMONA, Oct. This has been the most important night in this cam- paign in Pomona Valley. Repub- licans turned out by hundreds to hear Congressman James McLach- lan and Duncan E. McKinlay speak and see the Americus Club from Pasadena parade. The campaign, which has been apathetic here mmong Republicans and Democrats alike, has suddenly become exciting. McLachlan and MecKinlay are pepular campaign speakers in Pomeng, and the noisily enthusiastic reception they received this evening was flattering. The Americus Marching Club came from Pasadena on a special train. Its illu- minated parade, in new white uniforms and silver accouterments, was witnessed great throngs of men and women, many coming from points twenty miles away. The big beet sugar town of Chino had several hundred representatives, and residents flocked from San Dimas, Azusa and Covina. ‘When Congressman McLachlan arese to speak in the Pomona Opera-house every seat on the floor and in the gallery was occupled, and several hundred men stood up at the rear of the auditorfum. The speaker dwelt wholly upon how the Re- publican National and State administra- ticns had kept faith with the people and what Republican success next Tuesday wculd mean in the perpetuation and in- creasing of American prosperity. McKinlay spoke of the allegiance that Californians owed the Republican party | for the proud place this State now occu~ pied in the sisterhood of States. He proved by a wealth of statistics that no one could gainsay that if the preseat pna- tional policy concerning the Orient con- tinued California would some day be the empire State of the Union. MecKinlay urged his hearers to uphold the hands of President Roosevel. by helping to roll up a majority for Pardee and Anderson that should be no uncertain proof to the Pres- ident ghat California was loyal to the most foreeful and progressive administra~ tion since the time of Lincoln. A banquet was tendered the Americus Club at the close of the speaking. Every vote against Amendment No, S is necded because many good cifizens may vote for the measure without understanding it. . —_————————— Letter Written by Washington.
