Even money is also wagered that the Democratic majority in Tulare | County will be reduced to less than 500. Early in the campaign the Republicans estimated that Tulare would give Lane | 900 majority. Accounts from the region of Cailifornia south of Tehachapl rep- | resent that Pardee will come over the | sange with a majority of 12,00. Encour- Sging reports come to the State Central | Committee from Santa Clara, San Joa- | guin, Sacramento, Humboldt and Ala- | Mmeda counties, It is figured that these ssi eountles will give Pardee at least 8000 | malority. | THE CITY CAMPAIGN. ; In San Francisco the Republicans are | making splendid progress.

He said millions of dollars had been spent on this coast by the Government and the workingmen had benefited by it. He contrasted con- ditions in 1898 with those of the present day. He advised the men to stand by the ticket. The speaker announced that he was a native son and had lived in this city for many years, He had watched it grow inio an imperial city and was proud of i e o that fact.” He assured the men that he was a friend of labor and if elected Gov- ernor would look after their interests. At the conclusion of his short talk the doc- | tor descended from the wagon and went among the men. He was introduced to scores and shook each one by the hand. Subsequently he visited Mission-street | wharf and was introduced to the men em- ployed on the ships anchored at the pier. | Speeches were made by R. B. McClel- | lan and John J. Van Nostrand.

He said in part: It is not my purpoee, mor i it my duty to deliver an address to you on this occasion. There are speakers who will attend to that duty, but it m not be a 8 for me to offer some observations upon the issues now pending before the greater party of the Ameri- can people r Charles Duffy in one of his speeches declares that the supreme test of every law is whether or mot it promises happi- noes to the people. I claim that that test is fairly applicable to determine the usefulness ard worth of a political party. Submitting to <hat test, I ask you if the Republican party has proven its usefulness It goes without saying, it is a part of the history of our country, that the Republican party durimg the time of its existence has done more to pro- mote the happiness of our people than ary political organization in any country under the sun. (Applause.) Unfortunately a few years age the country was cursed by the worst in- dustrial depression that eéver afflicted a coun- try. Honest labor was in the streets begging for bread and employment; sturdy manhood this republic over was looking into the dark night of distress. How was this brought about? Our resources were good. We had the same vast storehouses to which labor could appeal. { It was all the result of misguided government. The Republican party at that | the great try, time, loyal to industrial institutions of our coun- believing in protecting them, unfurled .its and gave to labor a promise that if it was returned to power it would change these conditions. The American people accepted declarations, because that party had ever been true to these industries. As a result times changed and the nation assumed its great con- dition as an industrial republic. Now, my fellow citizens, you have cholce. This Government is governed by intelligence of its people. periment again with the same political party that brought about these distress conditions, vote the Democratic ticket. If you want to n your the endeavor to try that experiment again, it is | your duty then as American citizens to cast your vote for the party thai misgoverned you at that time. 1f on the other hand you want to conserve the prosperity of the country, then stand the loyal, progressive Republican (Applaiise.) VOTE FOR LOUD. How can you bring about this result? Give your influence; give your vote for Congressman Loud. (Applause.) For he is pledged not only to maintain Agerican industries, but is pledg- ed to give his valiant and potent support to the administration of Theodore Roeseveit. (Ap- plause.) And while you are sustaining the natfonal administration, turn and sustain the standard bearer in this State, George C. Par- dec. You make no mistake in supporting him, for in public and private life he is absolutely | clean; he is a man of resolute determination, who hes an_excellent record—he is' one of us. He is the Theodore Roosevelt of California. (Applause) # Billy Hynes sang a number of songs, which put the crowd in good humor. The United Republican Club, composed of 200 young men of the Misslon district, en- tered at this juncture and filled the Pa- vilion with cheers for- Dr. Pardee and Congressman _Loud.

Davis Discusses In- teresting National Ques- tions, | Judge John F. Davis of Amador was | the next speaker to addres the audience. Chairman McGowan paid him a high | tribute an officeholder and orator. Judge Davis bore out his reputation by | making a magnificent speech. In part he said: Mr. Chairman and Fellow Citizens: I bring from tha: section of the State with which f am more especlally famillar, the mother lode scction, and the message is that from the northern boundary of Nevada to the southern boundary of Mariposa, Wwith enthusiasm for the Republican ticket, and an increased majority will be glven to the head of the ticket im the splendid vote that | i | you to-night a message from the mountains, | i | | the country is ablaze George C. Pardee, Six years ago the Republican party under- took the performance of a public trust which is not yet complete, We are in the midst of the uncompleted programme of one who was then called “‘the advance agent of prosperity.’’ The administration of Grover Cleveland had demonstrated in a time of peace the political suicide of all attempts in practice to conduct the government of the country on any basis of a tariff for revenue only. Cleveland showed | kis faith In the Democratic platform, but his attempt to put its tenets into operation made | his administration a disastrous fallure. The | mere threat to enact a tariff law on the basis of the Democratic platform was enough . to paralyze industry and create the most wide- | spread business depression and in 1896, at the | end of his administration, the country seemed on the edge of industriai rum. There is no need to describe those dark days. You re- member them only too well, The forces of political, financial and busi- Tess sanity triumphed in_the election of the greatest President, save Lincoin, this nation had ever known, the safe, the patriotic, the peerless Willlam McKinley, BUSINESS IMPROVES. | Then began the most marvelous upbuilding o' the business industries of a nation this | world had ever seen. Congress was immediate- | ly convened in extra session and the business | interests of the country were ossured that pro- | tection to American industry and American la- { | bor Wwas to remain the traditional policy of the country. ~Business revived as if by magic all over the country. The passage of the cur- { rency biil settled the basis of our national cur- rency and strengthened our international credi Business confidence took' the place of business timidity and good times again blessed the American people. The more immediate issue confronting us in this campaign is: Shall the present prosperity continue? And this issue has been forced to the front by the same reckless political levity of the opposition as that which offered us. the free coinage of silver as a cure for business depression in 1896, As an incident ta our great industrial growth we have experienced in this country what they have experienced in all other countries where a particular industry has triumphed—the tendency of trade to crys- tallize in large combinations of capital. This is and always has been a prevailing tendency of trade. Mamy.a manufacturing establi ment has falled by reason of not being suf- will ba piled up for our standard bearer, Hon. " ficiently capitalized, many a mine is idle be- cause owned by an individual without suf® ficient money to open it, many a bank has been closed whose under capitalization failed to en- eble it to Weather a financial storm. EVILS OF MONOPOLY. The enormous commercial success of America has not been achieved without enor- mous aggregations of capital. Incidental thereto have arisen In certain of these corpor- ations the feature of over capitalization and that other feature inherited from the trusts: the tendency to monopoly and its attendant evils, especially where the corporation dealt In a natural ‘product. Combinations in re- straint of trade whose business is not that of Interstate commerce can now be reached un- der the common law in the various States as criminal conspiracies. 1In those which deal In interstate commerce they can be reached by the Federal law, and are being reached by this administration’s enforcement of the Sher- n.an anti-trust law. It is belleved by the At- torney General that this law can, even within the present limitations of the Federal con- stitution, be amended so as to be made more effective. It is the opinion of the President that the evils complained of can be in great measure prevented by laws compelling pub- licity as to all the essential facts in the busi- ness of a corporation in which the public have an interest. “‘I want,” said the Presi- dent at Boston, “the knowledge given to the accredited representatives of the people of facts upon which those representatives can, it they see fit, base their action later.” He proposes a remedy along sincere, sane, con- #ervative lines, proposing to do all that law can do to eradicate the evils of these combi- nations without injuring the business pros- pgrity of the country. OPPONENTS OF PRESIDENT. The opponents of the administfation, how- ever, instead of standing with the President have sought to turn to advantage In a politieal campaign the just popular irritetion at the evil features of some of those combinations. They {gnore the fact that these combinations exist with reterence (o articles that are on the free list as well as with reference to ar- ticles that are protected.. They ignore the fact that the oil of the Standard Oil trust and the ‘anthracite coal of the anthracite coal trust are on the free list, only to remember that the steel of the Unitéd States Stee] Cor- poration (and of all the multitude of lesser stéel concerns not in the trust) is protected by the tariff. They ignoge the fact that these combinations exist in every commercial coun- try of the world, -even more extensively in free trade England than on the continent of Europe. And in their appeal to the passions instead of the reason of the people they have not even advanced a new theory, but find themselves back on the ald platform of Grover Cleveland in 1892, _CITY WILL STAND FIRM. San Francisco will stand by the adminis- tration that has stood by and continues to stand by her. I did not have the good fortune of Dr. Pardee to be a native of this city, but I was born on the shores of the erand old harbor. In this eity T Ilived my boyhood. Here the old city slumbered till awakened by the strenuous policies of Republican expansion. The Republican party and its policy gave ¢ the opportunity for which she had been wait- ing for a quarter of a century. Here she sits enthroned on her hiils, the guardian of the commerce of the Orient. Here Will live again the civic pride which the Athenian feit for his Parthenon, the Roman for his forum and the Parisian for his boulevard. No other city in the world is bounded on one side by a harbor in which'all the fleets of all' the world could ride at anchor and on the other by a park which stretches down to where the waves of the ocean lave its feet. In no other city can flowers bloom and_ fountains play In the ) streets the vear round. The spirit of pro- gress will yet infuse this people to the build- ing of an emporium here that shall rival and outstrip the cities of the East. Back of suc! & city you need a thriving and prosperou State, with all its products, horticultural, vit- | feultural and agricuitural, protected by law. | Great manufacturing enterprises now in their infancy In this State will be fostered by our tariff and new industries inaugurated. We | shall for the purposes of our trade in the | Philippines and the Orient need to make this a manufacturing. as well as a horticultural Btate. To that end we shall develop our petroleum, to that end we shall- harness the | power running to waste in our mountains But we shall need more than ever, far more than the Wast, the protecting arm of the tariff to accomplish for Califdrnia what has already been built up on the Atlantic seaboard. | Let us not turn our backs on prosperity. Let ’ us stand for California. Let us stand by the party in State and nation that upholds the political doctrines that have given us prosper. ity, and let us send the message to Washing- ton that California has not faltered like Oregon or Washington, by rolling up a hand- some majority for George C. Pardee. (Ap- plause.) LOUD WARMLY GREETED. At the conclusion of Mr. Davis’' address Congressman Eugene F. Loud was pre- sented to the audience. The distinguished ,Representative from the Fifth Congres- sional District was given a splendid greet- ing. His friends in the Mission are legion | and those who attended the meeting dis- played their affection for Mr. Loud by lustily cheering him. In part Loud spoke | as follows: 1 sincerely thank you for these loyal expres- sions. not intended, I am sure, so much for me as for the principles for which I have al- Wways stood: not so much for A man as for the party which he represents. I am proud, as you of the party that has steered this | | country ‘clear of the shoals up to this hour. On Tuesday 9ext you have a serious question to determine.® The voting of an American oit- | izen on election day is an aet worthy of more sacredness than is usually allotted to it, and I belicve there are none here who do not feel the potency of that suggestion. It is not only the candidate who suffers from errors commit- | ted on clection day, but the citizen ns well. Within your memory two great parties have been in power In this country, both in full con- trol of all branches of the Government. I d rot desire to severely criticize the Democrat party. The fault that can be found with it is that it has mot been able to Lieep the best in- terests of the nation wholly in view. For years that party has had linked with it and bound around' it every ism and false theory sprurng upon the people, and if it should cease surrendering itself to mushroom notions and establish fealty to principles, it would become again the great organization that it once was. | The great trouble with the Democratic party is that when 'it had full control of the whole Government, as it did from '03 to '97, it was £0 trammeled with silverites and Populists that it was powerless to carry out any pollcy for she weifare of the country, and as a result of their roign the people have received absolutely nothing at their bands, nor can they until there is a gigantic reform in the whole organ- ization. The Republican party, on the con- trary, has at all times and upon. all occa- sions’ adhered to sound principles and those of its own. We have In the Congressional campaign in San Francisco the Democratic party again in the same position that it has occcupled many times before. Not feeling itself to secure sufficient v office it has combined with nominated a gentleman, for Congress upon that | like to ask basis. 1 would v strong enough in votes to get public another party and should the gen- tleman referred to be elected and go to Con- gress, what party he will ally himself with? | Will he belong to both of be a member of two and pirations. the Populists did, benefit his matter of great moment to and will sider on the eve of election the histories of | the parties that have been number of years and come to what is best to do.

HE Sen Francisco Athletic Club room wes crowded to the doors last night by voters of the south side, The rally was given under the auspices of the Produce Ped- dlers’ Union and the San Francisco Ath- letic Club, and the speakers, who velced the principles of the Republican party, were loudly cheered.

They each spo! | a few words and pleaded for the sup- port of the Republican nominees as the true friends of the workingman. Thomas V. Cator made an eloquent ad- dress in favor of the Republican stand- ard-bearers, He referred to the condi- tions of labor in the Southern States, where Demoeracy rules supreme, and contrasted the conditions there with those | of the Northern States, where the Repub- | licans are In control. ; Cator spoke of several of the old Re- publicans who have proved t nemselves to be the stanchest friends of the man who earns his bread by the sweat of brow. He appealed to the vo s (u_r th support of Dr. Pardee and Julius Kahn, and his words made a deep impression on the audience. Frank Rooney, in an extended speech, also asked for the support of Pardee for Governor, and illustrated to his listeners | how Julius Kahn werked for the e clu- | sion bill ‘and for the mechanics at Mare Island navy-yard. | B. L. Lang, president of the Peddlers’ | .Union, spoke a few words for Dr. Pardee, |'and said the proposed free market would not be established if Pardee was not elected Governor. S SR SCANDINAVIANS FOR PARDEE. Meeting in Red Men’s Hall Gives Candidate Rousing Welcome. The Scandinavian Republican Club held a meeting in Red Men’s Hall last night, and speeches were heard from a num- ber of party orators and candidates George C. Pardee gave a friendly, sensi- ble talk that caused all hearts to warm to him. The chairman, A. F. Peterson, first in- troduced Charles Alpe whe spoke | briefly, urging yoters Scandinavian | birth to support Pardee and the other Re- publican nominees Judge Carroll Cook was received warm- ly. He begged to be excused from mak- ihg a political speech. Ex-Judge Georg W. Lewis discussed political history and present issues. | " F. L. Albertson of Santa Clara County spoke as a Scandinavian to his fellow landsmen and urged them to support t! party that had made America the grea est republic on the face of the earth. Dr. George C. Pardee came In escorted by Thomas D. Riordan. With them were Alden Anderson, Charles F. Curry and W. W. Shannon. Pardee was greeted with a great burst of applause, the audi- ence rising and cheering until the can | dates found seats on the platform. D Pardee was introduced and spoke as fol- lows: Mr. Chairman, Fellow Citizens: I wante come before you to-night and let you | what sort of a man I am. When any one says to vou it Is going to be better for the State and for this city to elect the other fellow, just ask him why?
