Republican standard-bearer is extremely popular in his native city. When he entered the im- mense structure, crowded with the resi- | dents of the Mission and beautified by the | national colors and vari-colored bunting, the entire assemblage sprang to its feet and cheered enthusiastically for the pop- ular native son. The reception was refreshing to the tired campaigner. He had addressed nu merous other meetings, but the cordial greeting extended him brought joy to his heart and made him feel that his own people were with him in this hour of his career. 5 The doctor was accorded the closest at- tention during his address, but was fre-| Ladies andi‘Gentlemen: In behalf of - the He made no promises; but gave the Misslon[ residents a straight talk on the record of the Republican party.

He ap- pealed to the voters not to return to the dark days, but to continue the blessings ot good times and good government by strengthening the hands of President | Roosevelt by electing the entire Repub- lican ticket. CHEERS FOR PARDEE. Cheer after clicer greeted the guberna- torial candidate when he concluded his masterful speech. Henry M. Beatty opened the meeting vrith a short speech.

Fully one-half of those who were in the au- dience do not reside in nor can they vote in the Fourth Congressional District, in which Julius Kahn and Mr. Livernash are rival candidates. Most)of the speakers were from outside districts, some being from other parts-of the State. As in the case of a recent lecture, those who attended expecting a sensational speech went away disappointed, . as no | were uttered. A chair was placed on the stage for theatrical effect, which would do credit to Barnum at his best. It bore a placard saying it was reserved for Julius Kahn. Mr. Livernash spoke more in sorrow than in wrath when alluding to the fact j that matters connected with his mental distress of ten years ago were being urged | against him now as a potent reason why | he should not be elected a member of Congress. He blamed his opponent for interjecting -personalities into the cam- paign. He |did not attack Mr. Kahn's record in Congress. Mr. Livernash explained that the meet- ing was arranged at his mstance to give him a clean bill of health so that at some future day it could not be said he was afraid to meet the issue at this time. The circular to, which Mr. Livernash, Mr. Williams and Mr. Furuseth alluded is a fac simile of the first page of the Examiner of October 2°, 1892, true in every detail, in which the trial of Mr. Liver- nash for assault to murder is reported at great length. The Examiner is now advocating Mr. Livernash's candidacy for Congress to the sacrifice of all other can- didates of the Democratic party, includ- sentiments bordering on the sensational |, | tea that many people ing Lane.
