PARDEE ad-| dressed the workingmen at the | Pacific Mail dock at noon yester- day. Full five hundred men werc present. As has been the case at | | | several of the Republican meetings along the water front during the last week, an attemyt was made by Lane claquers to break up the meeting by raising cries for Lane, but the effort met with signal fail- | ure. Long before Pardee rose to address the gathering, men crowded about the stand- ard-bearer and while shaking his hand re- marked with enthusiasm that they were for him first, last and all the time. Par- dee was assured that many men who were wearing Lane buttons along the front | were in fact going to support the Re- publican ticket for the main reason they sald that Lane advised Mayor Phelan to | put the police on the teamsters’ wagons | uring the strike last year. The union | men along the front were not aware of | this fact until yesterday and the news has‘ greatly damaged the Democratic cause | among the unfon men in all sections of | the city. | In anticipation of trouble, Sergeant Ma- | honey and a posse of six men were on duty at the dock. The presence of this formidable force succeeded in restraining | the hoodlum element, which clung to the | outskirts of the gathering and which was prepared to resort to the usual methods to intimidate Pardee and prevent him from speaking if possible. No missiles | were hurled, but cheers for the Demo- cratic ticket were frequent. As usual, | Pardee greeted these periodical outbursts with smiles PARDEE CONTRASTS PARTIES. | Pardee was introduced by Peter Shee- | Gabiriel Depicting in a cha South.

Pardee received encouragement in the way of continued cheering and he spoke as follows I am glad- to see so many men connected with the shipping interests of San Francisco. You look prosperous, and it is needless for me to say that your prosperity is directly the re- sult of Republican rule. (Cheers.) The Demo- cratic party offers nothing to the workingmen except poor wages, little:work, soup houses and poverty. You remember after Cleveland was elected things went to smash in San Francisco. Mechanics were glad to work for a dollar a day and sl in a lot, the recipients of charity. Houses were vacant and therg were two men for —every job. After McKinle: election wages went up, the empty dinner pail was full again and prosperity followed. Instead of men seeking jobs to-day, jobs are seeking men. (Cheers.) Do you want to change the order of things? If you do, vote'the Democratic ticket. 1f you wani soup houses once more and hard times, vote the Democratic ticket, If you.want good_times, plenty of work with good pay, vote the Repubiican ticket. It's up to you. During Pardee’s speech the customary cry of “pickhandles” was raised by the Lane men and he nailed the campaign lie in brief but pointed langugge. The crowd was not satisfled and several shouted to know what Pardee thought of organized He replied that he was emphatie- ally in favor of organized labor and that he would do all in his power as Governor to protect the interests of union labor. The Lane men. were considérably aroused when an unknown man cried out cause. “He advised Mayor Phelan to put thé police on the wagons during the team- sters’ strike,”” he went on. “Do you want a man like that for Governor of Califor- “Get up here, my friend, and say that from this wagon,” said Pardee with earn to this undaunted champion of the orator. “He’s a bum!” roared the Lane sym- ® LOUD CHEERS GREET PARDEE Republican Nominees Address Large Meeting in the Mission. HE Thirty-second District Pardee Club held a grand rally last even- ing under the auspices of the Re- publican State Central Committee at Mangel's Hall, Twenty-fourth and Folsom street: J. H. Armstrong acted chairman. - He made a brfef opening address and - then proceeded to intraduce the numerous speakers. The first speaker to be introduced was | the Republican nominee for Congress, Bu- gene F. Loud. He was’ obliged to stand for some moments in silence, owing- to the great burst of applause with which the crowd greeted him. After thanking them for their kindness; he said in part: It is now twelye years since I represented this portion of the city of San Francisco, Dur- ing my first campaign this part of our city was in the Fifth Congressional District, but in 1592 it was segregated, and since that time you have been representéd by three different members of Congress. So after twelve yars you and I have joined forces again and I hope for the best of all. Referring to Dr. Pardee, who' entered the hall during his speech, he said: Elect Mr. Pardee by all means. Neglect not | your duty to your State and your county. Sound the note for the whole great West and let the East know that we do not swerve for an in- stant from the policies we inaugurated two years ago, Dr: Pardee took the stand and said: Gentlemen: Our fight s nearing an end and I am going to move to Sacramento to live in a short time, so I will be briet with you. I hope when you enter the election booth next Tuesday you will vote a straight Republican ticket. Let us show our friends in the East that we are going to stand by our party, Dr. Pardee hurriedly left the hall amiq ki at Lane was a ‘traitor to the union | pathizers in a voice. “I know enough to vote the Repubfcan ticket when the head of the Democratic ticket is a renegade to the cause of union labor,” retorted the stranger defiantly. Pardee completed his address with a few words of advice to the workingmen { and the plea to vote right in a cause that affected their interests so materially. He then left his wagon and entered the | Mail dock, where for an hour or more | | he held a recention among the men. On | all sides he was the recipient of hearty | congratulations and promises of support | on election aay. During the afternoon Pardee | headquarters of the- Musicians' ited the Union, | where he met and conversed with many | members of that body. He was cordially received and numerous ‘assurances were | given that the musicians of San Francisco | were not a unit for the Democratic ticket as was reported. RECEPTION AT PALACE. At 4 o'clock Pardee the guest of | honor at a reception given in the maple room of the Palace Hotel by the class of ’1 of the State University. This was Pardee’s class and all who were asso- clated with Bim during his days at the university, including many of cn oppo- site political faith, were in attendance to | tender him their best wishes. The recep- tlon was in charge of former Superior | Judge Charles Slack, and, while there was no formal programme, the event was a charming one. For two hours Pardee | | went about among his old classmates and | their friends and a general good time was | enjoyed. The affair was enlivened by the | presence of many ladies, who assisted in ' the serving of refreshments to the invited | guests. Many well-known politicians and business men of this city and Oakland were present and bade Pardee bun voyage on the sea of State politics. éh(: cheers and loud applause of all pres- n (!'m(rm:m Armstrong - then introduced Arthur L.

In the lead was a broken-down buggy, black With small humanity and decorated with Fritz placards. In the procession that fol- lowed were probably 150 boys of all sizes and conditions, shouting eulogy for thelr standard-bearer and creating more en- thusiasm' than a troop of returning vol- unteers. Some of the lads hobbled along on crutches, but their merriment was none the less promounced. Others drummed on tin cans, while the remalin- der waved flags or carried transparencies that announced in bold, colored lstters the object of their passing. Some of the transparencies bore the words ‘‘Honest Judge Fritz,” more urged voters to re- member Fritz on election day and a num- ber announced the Judge as the friend and choice of the newsboys.

HE Republicans of the Thirty- fourth District, headed by the members of the Loud Club, rallied at Twin Peaks Hall, Seventeenth and Castro streets, last night. More than 1000 supporters of the Republican cause thronged the build- ing, which echoed with the ringing cheers that were sent up for Pardee and the several other orators who addressed the mecting. It was the greatest rahy that has been Held in the Thirty-fourth in years and was composed mostly of workingmen. Chairmar F. V. Meyer called the meeting to order and in a well-worded speech told the citizens just why they were gathered together. There was a wild scene as Dr. Pardee entered the hall shortly after the meet- ing had been called to order. He was met by a large‘crowd several blocks away and it heralded his approach by shouts and cheers. When Pardee entered the hall he recefved an ovation that will dwell long in his memory. The audience sent up cheer after cheer for the next Gov- ernor of California. Dr. Pardee was visibly affected at the great welcome he received. He made 2 plain talk to the voters, which created a decided impression. He told them he was going up to Sacramento mext Jan- uary and said he would make no rash promises, but would serve the interests of the people to the best of his ability. He then went among the crowd and ex- changed greetings, W. H. Schooler was the first speaker of the evening. He discussed at length the issues of the campaign. He was fol- sands on the crowded thoroughfare: d much favorable comment was exnrfid on the energy displayed by, the bo}'lk I lowed by Frank French' and Willilam Gleason, who made short addresses.

You need stronger Republicanism, if such a thing is possible, and less division of parties. Remember that. This may not seem wise doctrine In these times of men- tal excitement, but it will be considercd such within a very short time.’ —————— Gilroy’s Tribute to Nominees. GILROY, Nov. 1.—The citizens of Gilroy Township, irrespective of party afilia- tions, gave the three local nominees on the Republican county ticket a great re- ception in Music Hall to-night. It was jn the nature of a neighborly reunion in honor of Judge C. W. Cobb for Superior Judge, Henry Hecker for Coromer and Public Administrator and George E. Rea for Supervisor. J. R.

In your crippled condition all the efforts you could possibly have put farth, d the hard time of '93 fo '96, when Democ was mis- ruling this country, when work was scarce labor abundantly pienty and the pay for ali kinds of work- dangerously near the starvatior line, would not enable you to dv, what you have since done, what you have accompiabed, or rather what has been done {ov-you by reason of a change of administration, a changé from the antagonistic and un;American poliey of the Democratic party to 'the wise, s a Judicious, American policy of the Republican pasty Turn back in retrospection to the hard_times you experienced during the incumbency of the jast Democratic administration and ask your- selves a few important questions: Vhat was your influence at that time?

Was re unkind with her favors? Did not the sun ripen the cereals and fruits at that time, just as well as the ripening qualities are dispensed now ? The workingman’'s capital is his brain and brawn, and if not employed his hands are tied —he is lost. In a word, if it were not for the policy of the Republican party you would mow be in the slough of despair_and despondency. You may not Gnderstand all the intricacles and _ramifications pertaining to the emactments by Congress concerning the tariff that protects the industries of California, but this you do know—that under a Democratic administration you had a hard time to make both ends meet and that you were unhappy and despondent; that under a Republican administration you have plenty of work, at good pay, and that you are happy, prosperous and satisfled. and you also know, if you will stop to think, that if you elect to change your present prosperous condi~ tion, by voting the Demecratic ticket you wilt %0 back to the same condition you were in dur- ing the dark and gloomy days of the dollar-a= day and soup-house regime.
